“Oh, if Senior is willing to teach, this junior will listen attentively.” A strange glint flashed in Zhang Ling's eyes, wondering what this fellow was going to say.
“Hehe, you now have a Nascent Soul cultivation. I've seen you cultivate diligently during this time, and your opportunities are not small. You do have some potential to advance to the Transformation God stage. But do you know why the further Void Refinement stage cultivators are called Void Refinement? This realm is called the Formless Realm in some races. Void Refinement is returning to the void, sensing the world's spiritual energy from the void. Many great divine powers can only be used after reaching the Void Refinement Realm.
Like Three Heads and Six Arms, Giant Spirit Avatar, and other transformation powers, you can't use them at all without reaching this realm. It's useless to say more about these with your current cultivation. You only need to know that sensing the power of the five elements is a necessary path to advance to Void Refinement.”
“Transformation God cultivators can sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth for their own use, which is different from Nascent Soul cultivators, who basically don't have the saying that their own mana is exhausted. But the Transformation God stage is only a glimpse into the doorway. The influence of the spiritual power of heaven and earth is mostly based on the spiritual power that they originally cultivated.
But reaching the Void Refinement Realm is the real sensing of the world's spiritual energy. The five elements of spiritual energy can be controlled in the hand. And reaching the Void Refinement Realm has also initially achieved immortality, without accurate lifespan restrictions.” Blue Sparrow's last words made Zhang Ling lick his dry lips.
He had never heard of this statement before and had not seen it in the classics. However, looking at Blue Sparrow's figure, he obviously didn't seem to be lying.
“Hehe, no lifespan restriction, but it doesn't mean you won't die.”
Blue Sparrow paused and then said again, “The Heavenly Tribulation is the real tribulation that all living beings cannot avoid. Small Heavenly Tribulation, Great Heavenly Tribulation. If you can't get through it, you will die in the end. We are on the path of cultivation, which is like sailing against the current. How many geniuses and strong people have fallen under the Heavenly Tribulation.”
As Blue Sparrow spoke, he shook his head. Zhang Ling stared at him and saw a trace of fear in his eyes. Zhang Ling's expression also sank, and it took a while before he came back to his senses.
“Sensing the five elements of spiritual power, then I cultivate a single attribute of spiritual power, but at that time, do I have to switch to cultivating five elements of cultivation techniques?”
“You don't need to consider these now, but it doesn't hurt to tell you. Switching to cultivating five elements of cultivation techniques is a method, but it is time-consuming and laborious, and it is just the stupidest way. Human race cultivators in the Spirit Realm, after reaching the Nascent Soul stage or the Transformation God stage, will mostly cultivate other attribute techniques at the same time in order to sense the power of the five elements.
In addition, there are also refining special five elements treasures, such as the Five Spirit Orbs, the Five Lights Seal, and using the power of treasures to achieve this goal. There are also those who cultivate special five elements fusion secret techniques, and even some geniuses who derive other attributes of spiritual power with a single spiritual power to achieve the five elements fusion. These are not without them.”
The five elements of spiritual power are not independent. The five elements restrain each other and also generate each other. The five elements of spiritual power are constantly changing, transforming each other, and merging with each other.
This has transformed into wind, thunder, ice, darkness, and other different kinds of spiritual power. There are even special spiritual energies such as True Devil Qi.
Zhang Ling touched his head and smiled strangely.
Why think so much? With his current strength, it's not the time to consider these things. It's better to do what's in front of me. Calming his mind, he sat cross-legged on the stone bed, holding a jade slip in his hand, and carefully studied the Five Aggregates Treasure Technique.
Although this secret technique is a remnant, there are several methods in it that specifically use the five aggregates spiritual light in the Two Instruments Gourd. It is indeed of great help to him.
Moreover, according to Blue Sparrow's meaning, if he can master the five elements of spiritual power, it will be of great help to impacting the distant Void Refinement Realm.
Zhang Ling naturally paid more attention to this secret technique.
In the blink of an eye, several days passed. Through the study of the Five Aggregates Treasure Technique, Zhang Ling made some adjustments and plans for his future cultivation.
It was a coincidence that Zhang Ling refined the Two Instruments Gourd into a natal magic weapon.
According to the records of the Five Aggregates Treasure Technique, the Two Instruments Gourd can sense the five elements of spiritual power faster than ordinary cultivators, thereby quickly breaking through the realm.
If it were an ordinary cultivator, even a cultivator with five spiritual roots who cultivates five kinds of spiritual power at the same time, it would be impossible to perfectly use the five elements of spiritual power.
The power of the five elements transforms each other and restrains each other.
Although there are cultivation techniques for cultivating the five elements at the same time, the progress of this kind of technique is slow. Moreover, the more profound it is, the more the power of the five elements must pay attention to balance. If the five elements of power in the body are too deviated, there will be a risk of going crazy.
The five aggregates spiritual light in the Two Instruments Gourd can not only be used to refine various materials, but also balance the power of the five elements, which can just solve this problem.
This is also the reason why the Five Elements Sect can use the Two Instruments Gourd to allow cultivators to better sense the power of the five elements and increase the chance of breaking through to the Void Refinement Realm.
Therefore, Zhang Ling now has no problem switching to cultivating the five elements of cultivation techniques. However, the Five Aggregates Treasure Technique is a incomplete version, and there are no chapters on cultivation techniques, but instead records many methods of refining treasures.
Of course, if there is really a five elements cultivation technique in front of him, and with the assistance of the Two Instruments Gourd, he probably wouldn't consider cultivation. After all, a cultivator's energy is limited. Perhaps there are many people who can cultivate the five elements at the same time in interfaces like the Spirit Realm.
But in the Human Realm, it is basically impossible to achieve great success. This is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also has many concerns.
Even if he has a mysterious spiritual pearl and a large amount of spiritual medicine to assist him, it is difficult to cultivate all the five elements of spiritual power before his lifespan runs out.
Fortunately, the above records a set of Five Lights Treasure Gourd spiritual treasure refining methods of the Five Elements Sect. Zhang Ling is very interested.
Let's not talk about the distant Void Refinement Realm. If the Five Lights Treasure Gourd is successfully refined, it will be five spiritual treasures. He can't help but be moved.
Because the most important refining materials are extremely difficult for others. But for him, he can solve the big concerns in a short time.
The most important material for the Five Lights Treasure Gourd is to have five Two Instruments Gourds. Taking this as the core, plant five elements treasures in the gourd, and through continuous refining, you can nurture five spiritual treasures.
In fact, no one has successfully tested this set of treasure refining methods, because in the Spirit Realm, few cultivators can collect five Two Instruments Gourds.
This set of secret techniques was initially just a theory, proposed in a notebook left by the Five Lights Old Ancestor. After years of research and continuous improvement by the Five Elements Sect, it formed the treasure refining method.
Due to the special nature of the Two Instruments Gourd, the Five Elements Sect's attainments in the art of refining weapons are also extraordinary. They have researched many five elements treasures and some special treasure refining methods.
In addition, there are several refining methods for spiritual treasures such as the Five Elements Ring and the Two Instruments Plate.
You must know that these are spiritual treasures. Previously, in the Cangyun Pavilion auction, the spiritual treasure refining method of the Flowing Light Pagoda was auctioned at a sky-high price.
The Five Aggregates Treasure Technique records several refining methods of spiritual treasures. If it is leaked, it will definitely attract competition from all parties.
However, the recorded refining methods are all researched based on the Two Instruments Gourd. It is simple to say, that is, the spiritual treasures are nurtured by the five aggregates spiritual light in the gourd.
It is not the kind of spiritual treasure that is completely refined.
After studying for a few days, Zhang Ling planned to refine the Five Lights Treasure Gourd, not to mention whether it can be successfully refined.
Relying on the refining secret method, having five Two Instruments Gourds, and engraving the five elements gathering yuan formation, can increase the effectiveness of the five aggregates spiritual light several times. Then his seven flying swords, and the Heavenly Star Sand inside, will be trained at a multiple speed.
He can't refuse just this one benefit.
This is the simplest principle. The same magic weapon is trained for a hundred years. The other person's magic weapon increases its power by one time, and your magic weapon increases its power by five or six times. The two magic weapons are naturally not the same.
The five elements gathering yuan formation is the core of the Five Aggregates Treasure Technique, and it is a secret method specially used to assist the Two Instruments Gourd.
In the following years, Zhang Ling did not go anywhere. He began to cultivate the Two Instruments Gourd with mysterious beads. He only needed to cultivate four more gourds.
The mysterious treasure beads naturally did not disappoint him, but it just took some time.
Of course, given that this is his biggest secret, Zhang Ling specially opened a secret spiritual field to prevent Blue Sparrow from noticing it.
Zhang Ling was not in a hurry. While cultivating spiritual objects, he dealt with other matters.
In addition to cultivation, the easiest thing to do is to re-refine the hand bones of the Desolate Ancient Giant. This is a pseudo-spiritual treasure.
After Blue Sparrow's guidance, Zhang Ling knew that the bottle of blood essence in his hand had the same origin and could enhance the spirituality of this section of hand bones.
Moreover, the Gengjin ore collected from under the Demon Spring is also the top material needed to re-refine this treasure. With a little sacrifice and refinement, the power of this treasure will definitely be greatly increased.
This day, Zhang Ling sat cross-legged in a secret room. The Nascent Soul floated above his head, spitting out a yellow mist of Nascent Soul fire from its small mouth, enveloping a bronze cauldron, and constantly refining the materials.
In the bronze cauldron, there was a mass of light golden particles, flowing like starlight.
After a full two hours, Zhang Ling's Nascent Soul re-entered his body. A golden light flashed in his eyes, and with a wave of his hand, a long stone box appeared in his hand.
There were seven or eight light golden balls in the stone box, the smallest was the size of a soybean, and the largest was the size of a walnut. They looked like things melted from gold.
With a muffled sound, the golden particles in the furnace quickly gathered into a peanut-sized golden bead and fell into the box.
Zhang Ling took a long breath, his face was a little pale, which was caused by the deficit caused by spitting out Nascent Soul fire for a long time. After putting away the box and taking out a few pills to swallow, he sat quietly in place to meditate.
After most of an hour, his complexion improved, and the mana he had consumed earlier recovered to about 70 to 80%. He lightly patted the storage bag, and another square box appeared at his feet. Inside was a pile of dark gold speckled particles.
Zhang Ling began to melt these Gengjin ores again. Gengjin is a top-notch treasure refining material, and the raw ore is extremely troublesome to process. He was not impatient, but enjoyed it.
Counting the Gengjin ore in his hand, he has processed most of it.
If he processes all the remaining ore, the Gengjin he can get will add up to thirty to forty catties.
It doesn't seem like much, but the processed Gengjin is actually not heavy in small pieces. It is three points lighter than the same amount of stone. It is estimated that the Gengjin he needs to re-sacrifice and refine the bone claw is enough.
Two more months passed like this, in the same secret room. Zhang Ling put some spiritual mines and other materials beside him, and held a black bone claw in his hand.
A black jade bottle was floating above the bone claw. With a soft sound, the jade bottle opened, and a cloud of blood energy emerged, turning into a cloud of blood mist and spreading out.
Zhang Ling sat cross-legged below. Although he had sensed the special spiritual pressure contained in this bottle of blood essence many times, he still had a feeling of palpitation at this moment. At the same time, he was even more looking forward to how much the power of the bone claw that had been re-sacrificed and refined would increase.
With a flick of his hand, he released the Heavy Yuan Profound Light to wrap the blood mist in mid-air.
The blood mist continued to compress, turning into strands of slender light, densely wrapped around the black bone claw.
The bone claw seemed to sense something and trembled violently. It even swelled to the size of several tens of feet. The five bone claws suddenly opened, and the sound of crackling explosions rang in his ears, giving people a feeling of palpitation.
Zhang Ling controlled the fusion of blood essence and bone claws with a straight face.
As soon as the blood-colored light touched the bone claw, it merged into it without any hindrance. The black bone claw turned into a blood-red bone claw, which looked even more enchanting.
As the blood essence continued to merge, the bone claw was also soaring rapidly. If Zhang Ling hadn't suppressed it with spiritual light, the bone claw would have turned into a size of twenty to thirty feet, or even larger, in an instant.
This scene lasted for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. All the blood essence was integrated into the bone claw. The entire bone claw was surrounded by black and red spiritual light, constantly grabbing in mid-air, and grabbing out countless sharp claw awns.
The Heavy Yuan Profound Light released by Zhang Ling was easily torn to pieces by the claw awns. While he was surprised, he became even more excited.
Just after merging with the blood essence, the power of the claw awns has increased a lot.
Zhang Ling laughed loudly, his hands danced and shot out several magic formulas, which submerged into the bone claw. He even spat out strands of Nascent Soul fire to speed up the complete integration of the blood essence into the bone claw.
I don't know how long this scene lasted, until at a certain moment, a earth-shattering loud noise erupted. The entire secret room exploded, and stones of various sizes flew around.
In the smoke and dust, a huge bone claw suddenly protruded.
The seemingly boundless palm continued to enlarge, breaking a large hole in the sky, and the earth and rocks collapsed in a large area, as if there was an earthquake.
Outside the mountain is a deserted island of several miles in size. The island is lush with vegetation, and there is a small mountain on the west side. However, the mountain is rapidly collapsing, and countless dust and rocks are flying, and most of the island is affected.
I saw a red and black giant claw suddenly protruded from the mountain, as if some huge monster was about to drill out from the ground.
The palm of the giant claw was fifty to sixty feet wide, and the five bone claws were huge and slender. With a light grab, the wind howled, and most of the mountain turned into powder.
Then it quickly opened its hand and flashed a strange red and black spiritual light.
In the sharp whistling sound, countless black and red claw awns shot out, sweeping around like wind blades, and wherever they passed, the soil, rocks, grass and trees were cut into pieces.
The original stone mountain, hundreds of feet high, was destroyed by most of the giant claw's opening and closing.
