Chapter 45: Transcending the Five Elements, A Change in Relationship

Regarding such improvements, Chen Daoxuan was very satisfied in his heart.

One hundred thirty years ago, after obtaining two Innate Objects and receiving the baptism of Innate Spiritual Charm, his comprehension had increased several times over.

He had also bitterly cultivated for several decades before, with a foundation of sixty Five Elements Great Dao True Talismans, sensing the opportunity, his Primordial Spirit underwent Soul Egress, passing through the Third Great Dao Baptism, achieving Nascent Soul Departure, Third Layer, and undergoing the third Divine Transformation.

Now, having been in closed-door cultivation for thirty years, it had been less than sixty years since he achieved Nascent Soul Departure, Third Layer at that time.

Yet he was now about to reach Nascent Soul Departure, Fourth Layer.

The improvement of his cultivation realm had actually begun to show a trend of getting faster and faster.

"Now my Primordial Spirit is at Nascent Soul Departure, Third Layer, having completed three Divine Transformations, a Great Dao Primordial Spirit of forty thousand zhang, of which the Immortal and Pure Yang regions account for sixty percent.

According to this rate of improvement, if nothing unexpected happens, when I break through to Nascent Soul Departure, Fourth Layer and complete the fourth Divine Transformation, then the Great Dao Primordial Spirit should be able to make the Immortal and Pure Yang reach one hundred percent."

"When the time comes and I obtain the two merits of Primordial Spirit Immortal and Primordial Spirit Pure Yang in advance, will there be any special changes?"

As his thoughts flowed, Chen Daoxuan was full of anticipation.

So he directly communicated with the Kunlun Mirror and headed to the Yuanling Realm.

In the depths of the Yuanling Realm, he once again entered closed-door cultivation.

He returned those eighty strands of Law Imprints to their origin one by one, condensing them into Great Dao True Talismans.

And by the way, he elevated the Mountain-Sea Immortal Scripture, elevating the True Mountain and Mysterious Sea he had cultivated.

……

But in just three years.

Chen Daoxuan had returned all eighty strands of Law Imprints to their origin, condensing them into eighty Great Dao True Talismans.

Between the forty-thousand-zhang Great Dao Primordial Spirit and the six Dharma Aspects, there were a total of one hundred seventy-three Great Dao True Talismans, connecting six Great Daos.

Among the six Great Daos, the Five Elements Great Dao had a total of ninety-two Great Dao True Talismans condensed.

The Yin-Yang Great Dao had forty-two.

The Four Symbols Great Dao had seventeen.

The Causality Great Dao had ten.

The Thunder Great Dao had seven.

The Slaughter Dao had five.

And there was such a huge disparity in his comprehension of the six Great Daos.

Apart from the order in which he comprehended the Great Daos, it was mainly because of his physique and Immortal Scriptures.

Although comprehending the Five Elements Great Dao had no Immortal Scripture, Chen Daoxuan possessed a Hong Grade Five Elements Dao Body, so before reaching a certain level, everything would proceed smoothly.

As for the Yin-Yang Great Dao, it was because he possessed two Immortal Scriptures, and also had the help of Lu Lingwei.

As for the Four Symbols Great Dao, it was similar to the Five Elements Great Dao, and he also had the Four Spirits Scripture.

Apart from these, the remaining three Great Daos—Causality, Thunder, and Slaughter—were cultivated last, and without any assistance, he only comprehended them by force, which was why they were relatively weak.

……

As the ninety-two Five Elements Great Dao True Talismans gathered together, in the midst of the unseen, Chen Daoxuan had a feeling of being able to draw upon the power of the Five Elements Great Dao.

Chen Daoxuan knew this was because the Five Elements Great Dao True Talismans had reached and exceeded the number of ninety, reaching the extent of being able to draw upon the power of the Five Elements Great Dao.

An impulsive thought of drawing upon the Great Dao Power also surfaced in his heart, but at that very instant, Chen Daoxuan directly suppressed the impulse in his heart and did not attempt it.

After all, whether it was the Great Universe, the Yuanling Realm, or the Tianling Great Realm, one had to at least wait until achieving Primordial Spirit Immortal or Primordial Spirit Pure Yang before being able to initially come into contact with Great Dao Power.

Before achieving Primordial Spirit Immortal or Primordial Spirit Pure Yang, Great Dao Power was entirely a force that harmed others more than oneself, very easily damaging the Primordial Spirit, Dharma Body, and Dharma Aspect.

A single carelessness could also damage the foundation.

It was not too late to attempt drawing upon Great Dao Power after achieving Primordial Spirit Immortal or Primordial Spirit Pure Yang.

There was no rush for a moment.

……

Having completed this cultivation task.

After staying for a few more days, just as Chen Daoxuan was preparing to return to the Great Universe and begin the Fourth Great Dao Baptism to break through to Nascent Soul Departure, Fourth Layer.

Suddenly, he sensed the Heavenly Heart Consciousness of the Yuanling Realm touching his mind.

Making him suddenly think of Lu Lingwei.

In the midst of the unseen, he knew that something had happened to Lu Lingwei.

Holding the Heavenly Heart Mark, he quietly communicated with the Heavenly Heart Consciousness, but there was no response.

He did not know whether it was good or bad.

In response, his thoughts flowed and Chen Daoxuan directly left the depths of the Yuanling Realm and came to the Tianji Blessed Land.

Entering that Cultivation Cave Mansion which was undefended against him, but was in fact heavily guarded.

He saw the radiance of the Yin-Yang Great Dao flowing, and Lu Lingwei sitting cross-legged with her eyes tightly closed.

He also saw a Great Dao Primordial Spirit, identical to her Flesh Dharma Body, floating in the air, also with its eyes tightly closed.

Seeing this, Chen Daoxuan was startled in his heart.

He was both surprised that he did not know when Lu Lingwei had achieved Divine Transformation.

And also surprised at Lu Lingwei's current situation.

He could sense that Lu Lingwei's Flesh Dharma Body and Great Dao Primordial Spirit were in this state because she had fallen into a special Dao-comprehending state.

Which made the Yin-Yang Great Dao become nearly twice as clear.

If one comprehended and cultivated the Yin-Yang Great Dao here, it would be able to double the cultivation speed.

……

However, regarding the Heavenly Heart Consciousness of the Yuanling Realm touching his mind, Chen Daoxuan still felt puzzled.

"Is this a good thing?"

"Could it be that the Heavenly Heart Consciousness summoned me here only because it would speed up my comprehension of the Yin-Yang Great Dao?"

With that thought, considering such an opportunity to comprehend the Yin-Yang Great Dao was rare, Chen Daoxuan sat cross-legged at the entrance of his cave dwelling.

While dividing some of his attention to stand guard for Lu Lingwei, he immersed his mind in comprehending the Yin-Yang Great Dao.

……

As he immersed himself in the Yin-Yang Great Dao, Chen Daoxuan discovered that the speed of his comprehension of the Yin-Yang Great Dao had not merely doubled, but multiplied several times over.

Moreover, his comprehension of the Yin-Yang Great Transformation Immortal Scripture, and even the Wuliang Scripture, advanced by leaps and bounds.

In just half a year's time, he had condensed a wisp of Yin-Yang Law Imprint.

And this enhancement in comprehension was, for Chen Daoxuan, as though he possessed a Yin-Yang Dao Body within him, with no rejection whatsoever from the Yin-Yang Great Dao.

Unlike before, when aside from the Five Elements Great Dao, the other five Great Daos would, after he comprehended and condensed a wisp of Law Imprint, give rise to a dullness, a rejection from the Great Dao, requiring time to be worn away.

Although this speed of comprehension enhancement was not as fast as when he had condensed the Innate Divine Prohibition, when he could comprehend and condense a wisp of Law Imprint in just three months.

It still far surpassed his normal speed of comprehending and condensing a wisp of Law Imprint in two and a half years.

And aside from the comprehension of the Yin-Yang Great Dao being rather unexpected, Chen Daoxuan also discovered that his Hong Grade Five Elements Dao Body seemed, as if by fate, to resonate with Lu Lingwei.

Causing his speed of comprehending the Five Elements Great Dao to also increase by several tenths.

But at this moment, Chen Daoxuan was only single-mindedly immersed in the Yin-Yang Great Dao.

……

Time flew like a shuttle; in the blink of an eye, a hundred and twenty-nine years passed.

Chen Daoxuan's comprehension of the Yin-Yang Great Dao, in one stroke, thoroughly surpassed that of the Five Elements Great Dao.

Beyond the original forty-two Yin-Yang Great Dao True Talismans, there were also a full two hundred and fifty-eight wisps of Yin-Yang Law Imprint.

Adding up to a total of three hundred.

……

The very instant Chen Daoxuan's comprehension of the Yin-Yang Great Dao reached this level.

Chen Daoxuan sensed Lu Lingwei opening her eyes and looking at him.

Then, in the blink of an eye, Chen Daoxuan clearly perceived that between himself and Lu Lingwei, a special connection had arisen.

The original attraction of the Great Dao between him and Lu Lingwei due to the Five Elements Dao Body suddenly multiplied countless times over.

A desire of the Great Dao, an urge to have his Primordial Spirit undergo Soul Egress and merge yin and yang with Lu Lingwei, impatient and irresistible, rose from the depths of his heart.

Although Chen Daoxuan was able to suppress and dispel it.

But looking at Lu Lingwei's open eyes, looking at her incomparably expectant expression.

Chen Daoxuan did not refuse.

In a single thought, yielding to the desire of the Great Dao in his heart, his Primordial Spirit underwent Soul Egress, going to meet Lu Lingwei's Great Dao Primordial Spirit.

Instantly, clarity and haziness interwove.
