Chapter 1192: Chapter 415: Five Elements Union Sutra, Battle Formations_2
Even though she used the Misty Sky Bead to disguise her appearance, her figure and face remained stunningly beautiful, enchanting all beings.
Nangong Mili put on a black veil to slightly cover her unearthly beautiful face, then gracefully walked out of the cave mansion with elegant steps.
.....
Bi Lake Mountain.
"Twenty Ninth Level Energy Refinement..."
Upon hearing the system notification, Lu Changsheng felt a surge of pure Mana in his Qi Ocean Core and couldn’t help feeling emotional.
For most Foundation Establishment Families, the Ninth Level of Energy Refinement constitutes advanced combat power.
Families like Qingzhu Mountain and Hundred Birds Lake generally have just over a dozen cultivators at the Ninth Level of Energy Refinement.
But now, among his children, there were already twenty at the Ninth Level of Energy Refinement.
"Who knows how many of these twenty will ultimately reach Foundation Establishment."
Lu Changsheng sighed deeply.
Although no one in his family had ever failed at Foundation Establishment.
However, he knew well that having all his children break through to Foundation Establishment is very difficult, nearly impossible.
Like his son, Lu Yun, who had used a High-Grade Breakthrough Elixir to advance from Middle Stage to Late Stage of Energy Refinement.
This kind of situation affects their breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.
Lu Yun’s situation is not unique.
Many of his children with Low-Quality Spiritual Roots had only managed to break through to the Late Stage of Energy Refinement by relying on High-Grade Breakthrough Elixirs.
They managed to reach the Peak of Qi Refining before the age of sixty mostly by relying on consuming pills.
After contemplating for a moment, Lu Changsheng arrived at Blue Cloud Peak’s Summit and silently commanded: "System, draw a prize."
A light red virtual roulette wheel appeared, then it swiftly began spinning.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the Cultivation Technique "Five Elements Union Sutra!"]
[The reward has been sent to System Space; host can view it anytime]
A crystal-clear Jade Scroll pattern appeared, accompanied by the system notification sound.
"A Five Elements Technique?"
Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow, looking towards the System Space for the details of this Cultivation Technique.
[Cultivation Technique: Five Elements Union Sutra]
[Grade: Orthodox Level]
[Description: The signature Cultivation Technique of the Five Elements Sect, circulating the Five Elements endlessly, gathering the Great Five Elements Wheel, Five Elements Parasol, forming the Five Elements Battle Formations!]
"Just a Five Elements Technique..."
Lu Changsheng felt immediately disinterested upon seeing this Cultivation Technique.
Although the family needs techniques to build up its foundation.
At this stage, however, the family doesn’t actually need such top-tier techniques.
Instead, they need more Advanced, Exquisite Level, or even Peripheral Sect Level Techniques.
Because it’s too strenuous for cultivators with Lower-Grade Spiritual Roots to cultivate Orthodox Level Techniques.
Exquisite Level Techniques are more suitable for them.
Even though "The Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture" was divided into seven Exquisite Level Sword Techniques.
But currently, few of the Lu family disciples have the temperament compatible with the Sword Techniques.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng has always wanted a few more techniques similar to the Seven Luminaries Sword Scripture.
"Inherit."
Lu Changsheng’s mental spirit stirred slightly, and he applied the Five Elements Union Sutra.
Immediately, the content, key points, and insights of this technique poured into Lu Changsheng’s mind like enlightening nectar.
After a long while.
Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, his face filled with joy.
"Good, good, good, the system finally did well this time."
Lu Changsheng was delighted.
He had just been thinking about obtaining a few techniques like the Seven Luminaries Sword Scripture.
And this "Five Elements Union Sutra" indeed seemed similar to the Seven Luminaries Sword Scripture, containing five subsidiary techniques.
They are "Metal Light Essence-Condensing Technique," "Wood Armor Essence-Condensing Technique," "Heavy Water Essence-Condensing Technique," "Separation Fire Essence-Condensing Technique," and "Earth Solid Essence-Condensing Technique."
All these five techniques are Exquisite Level Techniques.
However, unlike most Exquisite Level Techniques.
These five can only be cultivated up to the Foundation Establishment Stage, with no hope of Core Formation.
To break through to Core Formation, one must cultivate multiple techniques.
According to the cycle of the Five Elements, where Metal fosters Water, Water fosters Wood, Wood fosters Fire, Fire fosters Earth, Earth fosters Metal.
Cultivators of the "Metal Light Essence-Condensing Technique" after reaching Foundation Establishment can dual cultivate "Black Water Essence-Condensing Technique," thereby enhancing their foundational essence.
Once the "Black Water Essence-Condensing Technique" reaches Great Success, they can then dual cultivate "Wood Armor Essence-Condensing Technique" to continue building their foundational essence.
After dual cultivating two techniques, there’s hope to break through to Core Formation.
If one can cultivate all five techniques, forming a cycle of the Five Elements, this can significantly increase the likelihood of Core Formation!
This is also the reason this technique makes advancing from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment very easy, increasing the chance by twenty or thirty percent compared to ordinary techniques.
But after reaching Foundation Establishment, trying to achieve Core Formation is as hard as ascending to heaven!
Regarding Core Formation, with the Five Elements Mana circulating, one can seamlessly switch to cultivating the "Five Elements Union Sutra."
The Five Elements Sect created these five techniques, not only to lower the threshold of the technique so that more disciples can cultivate, but another reason is to enhance the collective combat power of the sect!
After minor accomplishment in cultivating the "Five Elements Union Sutra," one can condense a Five Elements Wheel, forming a Five Elements Battle Formation with cultivators who practice these five techniques!
This kind of Battle Formation shares some similarities with the Daoist Soldier Battle Formation.
It could even be said that these five techniques are intended to train ordinary disciples as Dao Soldiers, hence it’s easier initially and more challenging later.
If someone truly has extraordinary talent and manages to cultivate all five techniques to break through to Core Formation, the sect will naturally be willing to invest heavily in their training."
"Although it’s almost impossible to achieve Core Formation while cultivating these five techniques, the probability of breaking through to Foundation Establishment from Qi Refining is increased by twenty or thirty percent compared to ordinary techniques."
"Even those with Low-Quality Spiritual Roots, as long as they cultivate these five techniques and have the aid of Foundation Establishment Elixirs, have a fifty to sixty percent chance of breaking through to Foundation Establishment."
Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
This technique’s advantages and disadvantages are very clear.
It sacrifices the later stages for the sake of the earlier stages.
Unless one has extraordinary talent and great fortune, it’s nearly impossible to cultivate all five techniques and break through to Core Formation.
Usually, those with such talent would not choose to cultivate these kinds of techniques."
"Great Five Elements Wheel, Five Elements Battle Formation..."
