Chapter 795: Discussion on Cultivation

Zhenyue Daoist Master paid close attention to his cousin’s complexion. Seeing the flush, his heart rejoiced, and upon hearing the phrase ‘good medicine,’ a smile bloomed on his face.

Huayin Daoist Master’s icy face showed more lively expressions as she carefully placed the pill into the jade bottle and opened another jade bottle.

The five red elixirs with three Dao Patterns were so eye-catching, making her palm appear even paler.

Overjoyed, Zhenyue Daoist Master stood and cupped his hands:

“Five furnaces of herbs, and you, my friend, laboriously refined them. It’s the first time touching such a pill, yet you managed to form eight pills, with a pill formation success rate of over fifty percent, including five high-quality pills, relieving our urgent distress. I will remember this kindness at heart.”

Having said that, he bowed slightly.

Ji An quickly stood to assist, “You are too kind, my friend. As an Alchemist, I simply did what I should do, hoping it could be of some help to Huayin Daoist Master. Standing here, I can feel the cold, if you don’t mind, you may refine one here for a direct effect evaluation.”

Besides not being able to refine cold attribute pills, the Cyan Lotus Heart-Burning Fire has refined all other pills to great reviews.

Allowing the other person to take one here would leave a better impression.

The two guests exchanged glances, Huayin Daoist Master nodded slightly, and Zhenyue Daoist Master said:

“In that case, we will trouble you, my friend.”

“You two are too polite, my humble abode is simple, please forgive its shortcomings.”

Ji An led the patient to the Quiet Chamber and left, Huayin Daoist Master glanced around and showed a peculiar smile at the corner of her mouth.

In the room, there was only a Pudun, an incense burner, and a silver plate, with some pill remnants on it, indeed simple.

Taken from the Grotto Void Stone, she sat on a Pudun woven from red spirit grass, taking an ordinary quality Sanyang Pulse-Opening Pill.

It wasn’t that she was fastidious about sitting on others’ Pudun, but this red leaf grass material Pudun could slightly alleviate the cold within her body.

As the pill entered her stomach, warmth immediately arose.

…

In the living room, Zhenyue Daoist Master picked up a cup of tea and drank, saying:

“Phoenix Dance Danxia Tea, a fine taste. Could you obtain Tier Three Upper Grade Spirit Tea?”

He raised the teacup. Due to his cousin’s illness, he was collecting all fire element spirit plants.

Phoenix Dance Danxia Tea can also ease the illness, but as his cousin’s cultivation reached the late-stage Golden Core, Tier Three Middle Grade Spirit Tea’s effectiveness became relatively small.

Ji An lightly shook his head, “I traveled here from the Western Continent, know few cultivators, and currently have no channels in this area.”

He will have them in the future but can’t help now.

If it were possible for the Stone Turtle to absorb more Dao Rhymes, elevating the Gathering Essence Tree to Tier Three Upper Grade, then obtaining Tier Three Upper Grade Spirit Plants would be easier.

Of course, if exceptionally rich rewards were offered, he could risk elevating the Phoenix Perch Wood’s quality.

Zhenyue Daoist Master asked habitually, not having much hope, so he changed the topic, discussing cultivation insights, which cultivators not in the rising phase cannot refuse.

Ji An got a peek at the cultivation method of the Nascent Soul Grand Sect, discovering that the Void Sect, at least the cultivation method of Zhenyue Daoist Master, has a strong inclination towards the Five Elements, not adhering to the path of balance.

“My friend, we are required to comprehend the Five Elements Mutual Generation for breakthroughs to Golden Core, eventually achieving Five Qi Chaoyuan. But from your explanation, I noticed that during your Golden Core Level cultivation, you did not focus on Five Elements Balance, rather enhancing the power of the Earth Element, which completely exceeds my understanding.”

Zhenyue Daoist Master contemplated, then said:

“The balance of the Five Elements within individuals is merely a dynamic balance, as absolute balance doesn’t exist. Moreover, our understanding of the Power of the Five Elements isn’t at the same level, hence pursuing Five Elements Balance might indeed hinder our cultivation. Recall our cultivation, the Foundation Establishment Stage’s cultivation technique has distinct Five Elements inclination, whereas during the Chao Origin Stage, due to special reasons, we must pursue Five Elements Balance, as this method entails lesser resistance in forming the Golden Core while the quality of the Golden Core is higher. After breaking through to Golden Core Stage, we should leverage our advantages rather than linger in the illusion of Five Elements Balance. Most cultivators aren’t suited for this grand path, as it’s exceedingly arduous.”

With a deep gaze, he curiously asked:

“Dear friend, do you cultivate in pursuit of Functional Elements Balance?”

Ji An nodded slightly, “Confiding to you, I cultivate the Five Elements Reincarnation Scripture, once a core technique of the Super Nascent Soul Sect Five Elements Sect.”

The cultivation technique is pivotal to a cultivator’s path and generally not disclosed, as enemies could find countermeasures.

Ji An is an exception; being adept in all manner of Five Elements Magic, and preparing to refine a replica of the Innate Five Directions Banner, able to find countermeasures for any opponent.

Zhenyue Daoist Master raised an eyebrow, “The Five Elements Reincarnation Scripture is also archived in our Void Sect, I’ve once studied it, the advantages of Functional Elements Balance are evident, post-Golden Core Stage, as long persistently cultivated, a cultivator’s magical power capacity surpasses peers, with prolonged cultivation more pronounced. This follows the most authentic cultivation method, but I’m aware the Five Elements Reincarnation Scripture also includes methods focusing on a single Five Elements power. Am I correct in understanding that cultivating other Five Elements to highlight a particular one exists?”

Following the fall of the Five Elements Sect, various Nascent Soul Sect sent disciples to the ruins, seeking exploitable resources.

Resources of high value got thoroughly scoured, leaving areas of lesser value and impassable places even daunting to Nascent Soul cultivators.
