Qingyang Zi fell silent, and Li Mu couldn't help but frown, asking somewhat impatiently through Divine Thought, "Senior, is there a problem with cultivating Five Elements and Yin and Yang simultaneously?"
Qingyang Zi recovered and confirmed through Divine Thought, "Display your True Essence again. I need to see its changes. I still can't believe you can Cultivate Five Elements and Yin and Yang simultaneously."
Upon hearing this, Li Mu was slightly startled, understanding Qingyang Zi's confusion, but he didn't say much. With a thought, he extended his right hand, condensed his True Essence, and slowly released it.
The next moment, a miraculous scene appeared in Li Mu's palm: a seven-colored spiritual light slowly rotated in his palm, appearing both mysterious and dazzling. Within this spiritual light, five colors of light intertwined, each representing the power of the Five Elements. And deep within the Five Elements light, Yin and Yang Qi were faintly visible, intertwining like a taiji diagram, infinitely profound.
Qingyang Zi's released Divine Thought stared at the True Essence displayed in Li Mu's hand, clearly feeling that the power contained within this spiritual light was extremely strong. The Five Elements power generated and countered each other, and the Yin and Yang Qi were balanced and harmonious, as if it were a flawless cyclical system.
The Five Elements Qi intertwined and entangled, and the Yin and Yang power fused, forming a strange and powerful aura. This aura possessed both the profoundness and grandeur of the Five Elements, and the mystery and depth of Yin and Yang, making its extraordinary nature evident at a glance.
He truly condensed Five Elements and Yin and Yang!
It's truly incredible!
After confirming Li Mu's True Essence, Qingyang Zi exclaimed from the bottom of his heart, "As expected of an ancient Cultivation Technique, it's truly an eye-opener!"
"Senior, is there a problem with my Cultivation Technique?" Li Mu asked with concern.
Upon hearing this, Qingyang Zi slowly recovered from his shock and replied through Divine Thought, "The Cultivation Technique itself has no problem. Your ability to Cultivate this Cultivation Technique to the Nascent Soul Realm is enough to prove your Aptitude and perseverance. However, in my era, very few dared to Cultivate this kind of Cultivation Technique, and it is truly not easy for you to have reached this step."
After a pause, Qingyang Zi continued through Divine Thought, "However, the path of Cultivation is never smooth. You have now touched upon the Nascent Soul Realm. To Breakthrough to the next Realm, and condense the Five Elements and Yin and Yang Law Domain, I'm afraid it won't be so easy."
Li Mu remained silent, knowing that what Qingyang Zi said was true. He had long ago cultivated the Five Elements and Yin and Yang Soul Transformation Clone, precisely in preparation for the next step of condensing the Void Refining Domain.
However, condensing a Law Domain is done when advancing to Void Refining. Li Mu had no clue for a while, and now that there was a Combined Body Realm expert he could consult, he naturally couldn't miss the opportunity.
"Senior, is it very difficult to condense a Law Domain by cultivating Five Elements and Yin and Yang simultaneously?" Li Mu quickly asked through Divine Thought.
"Difficult, extremely difficult! Ordinary Cultivators, even those who Dual Cultivate, when advancing to the Void Refining Realm and condensing a Law Domain, will choose a single Law Domain. For those who want to combine multiple Law Domains, the success rate is less than fifty percent. For each additional Law Domain condensed, the difficulty decreases by ten percent." Qingyang Zi slowly conveyed through Divine Thought, his tone revealing seriousness and concern for Li Mu's upcoming challenge.
"Cultivating Five Elements and Yin and Yang simultaneously, while infinitely powerful, is also extremely difficult. You need to simultaneously master the power of seven elements and fuse them into one. The difficulty involved can be said to be as hard as ascending to heaven."
"Cultivating Five Elements and Yin and Yang simultaneously means he needs to condense seven Soul Transformation Clones at the same time, as the basis for condensing seven-system Law Domains. The consumption of Divine Soul and Spirit Medicine for condensing seven-system Clones is beyond imagination. Moreover, to condense seven-system Law Domains together, not only requires strong magical power support, but also requires a tenacious Divine Soul as a link."
...
Qingyang Zi continuously transmitted messages to Li Mu, introducing the difficulty and key points of condensing a seven-system Law Domain.
After a pause, Qingyang Zi transmitted, "Little Friend Li, your Aptitude is extraordinary. Being able to Cultivate Five Elements and Yin and Yang simultaneously to the Nascent Soul Realm is already not easy. While condensing a seven-system Law Domain is infinitely powerful, the difficulty and risks involved are also immense. I know your will is firm, but you must also act within your capabilities. Do not damage your own Foundation for the sake of temporary strength."
Qingyang Zi finally earnestly advised through Divine Thought, "Little Friend Li, listen to me. I suggest that before you advance to Void Refining, you quickly change your Cultivation Technique and choose to condense a single Law Domain. Otherwise, even if you successfully condense a seven-system Law Domain and reach the Void Refining Realm, it will be almost impossible to advance to the Combined Body Realm, which is the next Realm where you fuse with your Law Domain, let alone reach the ultimate Chaotic Great Dao!"
"Chaotic Great Dao?"
Li Mu's heart trembled upon hearing this, but he did not shrink back because of it. He asked through Divine Thought.
"Yes, the culmination of cultivating Five Elements and Yin and Yang simultaneously is the Chaotic Great Dao. The Five Elements and Yin and Yang evolve all living beings and are the Foundation of all things." Qingyang Zi slowly transmitted through Divine Thought, his tone carrying a hint of longing and reverence: "The Chaotic Great Dao is the ultimate pursuit of Cultivators. Being able to master Chaos Power means being able to control all things and possess endless power. However, this path is also the most difficult. From ancient times until now, countless Heavenly Talents have fallen on this path, and no one has succeeded yet."
After hearing this, although Li Mu was somewhat shocked, he felt more determination and resolve.
Possessing the Heaven-Defying Divine Ability talent of Plant Spirit Absorption, which can absorb endless spiritual plant attributes, Li Mu was confident in challenging this Chaotic Great Dao.
Li Mu took a deep breath, calmed the fluctuations in his heart, and asked through Divine Thought, "Senior, this Junior knows that the path of Cultivation is never smooth, but this Junior also believes that no matter how difficult the road ahead, there will always be a way to Breakthrough. This Junior dares to ask Senior if there is any method that can increase the success rate of condensing the Five Elements and Yin and Yang Law Domain?"
Upon hearing this, Qingyang Zi fell silent for a moment, seemingly pondering how to answer Li Mu's question. At the same time, he was also impressed by Li Mu's stubborn choice. He had already explained it so clearly, yet he still insisted on condensing a seven-system Law Domain.
"Even if you successfully condense a seven-system Law Domain, when you advance to the next Combined Body Realm, you will definitely not be able to pass it. What's the point of all this trouble!" Qingyang Zi sighed and replied to Li Mu through Divine Thought, "There are naturally methods, but they all require a huge price. Firstly, you need to find some rare Spirit Medicine that can enhance magical power and Divine Soul. These can help you better control the Five Elements and Yin and Yang power. Secondly, you also need to Cultivate some secret Divine Abilities specifically for condensing Law Domains to improve your success rate in condensing Law Domains. Coupled with top-grade Returning Void Pill, with these three approaches, the success rate can increase by twenty to thirty percent."
"Thank you for your guidance, Senior. I know the road ahead is difficult, and I know I have to pay a huge price, but I am willing to try." Li Mu replied through Divine Thought, his tone firm, "I have Cultivated until now, enduring countless difficulties and dangers. Each time, I have sought victory amidst peril. This time, I will not retreat either."
Upon hearing this, Qingyang Zi sighed, remained silent for a moment, and continued through Divine Thought, "Since you have decided, then I will tell you some specific methods. Firstly, for the rare Spirit Medicine you need to find, I can give you some clues, but whether you can find them depends on your luck and strength."
Qingyang Zi began to list the names and possible growth locations of those rare Spirit Medicine one by one. Each one was extremely rare and difficult to find. However, Li Mu showed no signs of shrinking back after hearing this. Instead, a fiery glow flashed in his eyes. Although these Spirit Medicine were hard to come by, they were not impossible to find. As long as he put in the effort, he would definitely be able to find them.
Then, Qingyang Zi taught Li Mu some secret Divine Abilities specifically for condensing Law Domains. These secret Divine Abilities were all obtained by Qingyang Zi through many years of Cultivation and were extremely precious. He taught them to Li Mu without reservation, to help him condense his Law Domain.
As for the Pill Formula for the Returning Void Pill, Qingyang Zi had also informed Li Mu.
"Thank you, Senior. I will find a way to deal with the Returning Void Pill." Li Mu transmitted, gratefully, "This Junior can never repay Senior's guidance. This Junior will definitely try every means to reconstruct your Divine Soul."
Upon hearing this, Qingyang Zi nodded and said no more. Li Mu had already made his decision, and further persuasion would be useless. He only hoped that this young man could truly succeed!
If Li Mu could truly condense a seven-system Law Domain, it would be of great benefit to him as well.
When he advanced to the Combined Body Realm, he would definitely need Chaos Qi to assist him. At that time, he would have to search everywhere for Chaos Qi. Giving him a few wisps to reconstruct his Divine Soul shouldn't be a problem, right!
After exchanging a few more words, Qingyang Zi ended the Divine Thought communication, citing his Divine Soul weakness and need for rest.
Perceiving the soul world pearl with his Divine Thought, Qingyang Zi's Divine Soul had already fallen silent. Li Mu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, solemnly placing the soul world pearl into his storage space.
"Chirp chirp!"
Seeing the soul world pearl put away, Little White immediately became unhappy. It flew onto Li Mu's shoulder and chirped angrily.
Li Mu looked at Little White's pouting expression and couldn't help but chuckle. He extended a finger to rub Little White's small head, comforting it, "Little White, stop fussing. This soul world pearl is of extraordinary significance to Senior Qingyang Zi. I cannot just hand it over to you. However, don't worry, I promise you that if I have the chance in the future, I will find something even better to compensate you."
"Here, consider these as interest. Eat!"
Saying that, Li Mu took out two soul gathering bottles from the nine storage spiritual pearl, containing a sixth-grade Yao Beast essence soul, which Li Mu had prepared as food for Little White.
When Little White saw the soul gathering bottles in Li Mu's hand, a bright light immediately flashed in its eyes, and its anger seemed to dissipate quite a bit. It knew that Li Mu would never treat it unfairly, always bringing back delicious things for it after every adventure. Although it didn't get the soul world pearl as it wished this time, having two sixth-grade Yao Beast essence souls as compensation was still a worthwhile trip.
It happily jumped into Li Mu's hand, easily opened the bottle cap, confirmed the deliciousness inside, and then eagerly began to enjoy it, occasionally letting out satisfied chirps.
Watching Little White eat with relish, Li Mu couldn't help but smile. Although Little White was sometimes a bit willful, it was also a sensible fellow. Not forcefully demanding the soul world pearl this time was also giving him a way out.
After Little White had eaten its fill, its round belly and satisfied expression revealed its current contentment. Sleepily, Little White yawned lazily.
Seeing this, Li Mu smiled slightly and put it into his Beast Taming Bag, allowing it to rest well in a quiet environment.
Subsequently, Li Mu prepared to continue inventorying his gains from Wanbao City. 'Seeing' a certain spiritual item in the nine storage spiritual pearl, Li Mu's heart stirred, and he quickly summoned the Azure Moon True Dragon from the Painting World Treasure Mansion.
The next moment, a spiritual light flashed in the cabin, and the human-shaped Azure Moon True Dragon appeared before Li Mu. He wore a green python robe, stood nearly a zhang tall, and was majestic. A green scale on his brow flickered with a faint green light, like the brightest star in the night sky, appearing both mysterious and powerful.
"Greetings, Master!" The Azure Moon True Dragon saw Li Mu and respectfully bowed, but a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes, clearly asking Li Mu the purpose of summoning him.
"You operate the Spirit Ship, follow the two thunder spiritual ships, and I'll go into the Treasure Mansion to handle some matters." Li Mu looked at the Azure Moon True Dragon and gestured.
The Azure Moon True Dragon nodded slightly upon hearing this, obeying Li Mu's instructions. He turned and walked to the control panel of the Earth Element Spirit Ship, immersed his Divine Thought, took over the operation of the Earth Element Spirit Ship, and closely followed the first two thunder spiritual ships, continuing forward.
At the same time, Li Mu's figure flickered and disappeared from his original spot.
Inside the Painting World Treasure Mansion, Li Mu's figure silently appeared, his eyes shimmering with profound light, as if able to perceive all things in the world. His Divine Thought spread out like silk threads, quickly extending towards the Five Elements Spirit Mountain.
Li Mu's Divine Thought paused before an Immortal Cave. Inside the cave, the young man Lin Maoshan sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, his face serene, his hands forming seals. A faint five-colored spiritual light emanated from his body, indicating that he was in the midst of arduous Cultivation. His expression was focused and determined, his entire being immersed in Cultivation, as if nothing from the outside world could disturb him.
Looking at Lin Maoshan's focused and diligent Cultivation, a satisfied smile appeared on Li Mu's lips. He was somewhat pleased with this Named Disciple's diligence and effort.
With satisfaction in his heart, Li Mu's Divine Thought moved, and he summoned the Crimson Refining Fire Phoenix through the Spirit Control Contract Seal.
The Crimson Refining Fire Phoenix sensed Li Mu's summons, put down what it was doing, and quickly flew towards Li Mu. Its figure streaked across the sky in a fiery red arc, like a shooting star, brilliant and dazzling.
In a short while, the Crimson Refining Fire Phoenix arrived before Li Mu. It let out a low cry and transformed into a beautiful woman in a red dress, landing before Li Mu.
"Crimson Flame, greetings, Master!" The Crimson Refining Fire Phoenix's phoenix eyes gazed at Li Mu as she gracefully bowed.
"No need for formalities. Summon the Extreme Yang Heavenly Fire!" Li Mu nodded slightly and calmly instructed.
The Crimson Refining Fire Phoenix immediately nodded in agreement. Then, she formed a hand seal, and a red light flew out from within her body, rapidly expanding to reveal the form of the Celestial Void Cauldron, full of fiery power.
Under the control of the Crimson Refining Fire Phoenix, the lid of the Celestial Void Cauldron opened on its own, and a small purple-gold Fire Phoenix nimbly flew out from within the cauldron. Its pair of purple-gold eyes sparkled with scorching spiritual light, as if capable of igniting everything. It circled the Crimson Refining Fire Phoenix joyfully, then transformed into a purple light and flew towards Li Mu, landing on his shoulder.
"Chirp chirp!"
The Extreme Yang Heavenly Fire stared at Li Mu and chirped eagerly, as if a creditor was demanding payment.
Li Mu smiled slightly, understanding the meaning of the Extreme Yang Heavenly Fire. It was asking him to return the sixth-grade spiritual materials he had promised when he re-refined the Time Luck Spirit Turtle last time! (End of Chapter)
