Chapter 182: Five Elements Mutual Generation and Mutual Restraint Technique

Ning Zhuo only brought ten people to explore the Lava Immortal Palace together.

They pushed open the first door, second door, and third door, and everything went very smoothly along the way.

Soon, everyone arrived at the preparation room.

Many people's eyes were focused on the ranking list of the five stone pillars.

On the list, they were all names of people from the City Lord's mansion.

Meng Chong firmly occupied the second place.

The first place was the unshakable "Entry Standard".

"Meng Chong is still first, truly worthy of being an Immortal Talent!" Ning Yong sighed.

Ning Chen sighed: "With Meng Chong there, the City Lord's mansion's Reform Team always dominates the ranking list. I really want to know what kind of Immortal Palace rewards they receive every time."

Someone else said: "If it weren't for Meng Chong, we would definitely be on the list. In this case, Brother Zhuo would definitely be first!"

Ning Zhuo smiled in his heart: "I have long been, and have always been first."

"And the real second is not Meng Chong, but Boss Sun. It's just that he didn't make the list."

In this regard, Ning Zhuo hid it quite well.

To this day, no one has discovered the trick of the "Entry Standard".

Next, the Ning family cultivators also discussed the entry standard. Everyone was sighing that the Three Sects Shangren were after all Void Refinement Great Cultivators, with high vision. Everyone had been testing for so long, and had never reached the entry standard. Even an Immortal Talent like Meng Chong was no exception.

Some also guessed Meng Chong's real progress. He could firmly dominate the second place, exactly which level he had rushed to.

With the Golden Blood War Ape · Dasheng as an insider, Ning Zhuo of course knew Meng Chong's real progress very well—the first level of the Dao Gate.

This was the result of Ning Zhuo's deliberate release of water.

The Golden Blood War Ape · Dasheng did not appear frequently to intercept Meng Chong.

Although Meng Chong shouted and called for the mechanical ape every time he came in. He really wanted to fight Yuan Dasheng again and regain his face.

Ning Zhuo needed Meng Chong to achieve results.

Ning Zhuo needed his cultivation to "progress"; his publicly disclosed "third level of Qi Refining" cultivation was indeed a bit low. He needed a suitable reason to show stronger Qi Refining cultivation.

And if he wanted to be stronger, he had to expose the fourth to sixth layers of the Five Elements Qi Law.

Ning Zhuo's plan was to let Meng Chong achieve such good results first, and then he would follow up and reach the level where he could obtain subsequent cultivation methods.

Meng Chong must be allowed to do it first.

On the one hand, it was the ranking list. On the other hand, Ning Zhuo needed to maintain a secret cooperative relationship with the City Lord's mansion.

Once Ning Zhuo's results exceeded Meng Chong's, the City Lord's mansion would likely take action to contain him. By then, even if Fei Si appreciated Ning Zhuo again, he would not be able to go against the will of Meng Chong and Meng Kui, and would take action against Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo had taken back the black market, so he didn't want Fei Si to expel him so quickly.

"Anyway, the Demon Gate and Buddha Gate have been closed by me."

"The difficulty of the subsequent levels of the Dao Gate path has increased sharply, and it is not easy for Meng Chong to surpass me with his strength."

"According to the reconnaissance, the possibility of Meng Chong surpassing me is slim."

"According to the layout style of the Three Sects Shangren, there is likely a third Dao Gate, which requires the Five Elements Qi Law to be cultivated to the peak of the ninth layer before it can be pushed open."

Not to mention anything else, Meng Chong's cultivation is solid at the third level of Qi Refining.

If he wants to push open the second Dao Gate, he must cultivate to the peak of the sixth level of the Qi Sea. And until now, he hasn't mastered the subsequent fourth to sixth layers of Qi Refining methods.

Room 4, Room 5, Room 6...

The wooden puppet giant combined by everyone rushed forward under Ning Zhuo's control.

"Brother Zhuo, charge! Charge all the way."

"Brother Zhuo, you are stronger than before!"

"Yeah! My feeling is the same."

Ning Yong and the others were brought flying by Ning Zhuo all the way, shouting and calling, very happy.

At this time, facing Ning Zhuo, their state of mind was different from before.

Ning Zhuo controlled the black market and directed with ease. Especially those uncle-generation Foundation Establishment cultivators all went to the black market to work and became Ning Zhuo's subordinates, which made Ning Chen, Ning Yong, and others feel deeply, which could be called shocking.

If it was said that they were convinced by Ning Zhuo before,

Then now, they were prostrate in admiration for Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo felt deeply about their change in mentality. Because he could see the Human Life Hanging Thread.

The Human Life Hanging Thread of these people appeared unprecedentedly tough and solid.

"The eighth level passed!"

"Brother Zhuo's strength has clearly risen, simply reborn."

"Use my thigh, Brother Zhuo!"

"No, use my arm to beat the enemy. Brother Zhuo, I am too idle."

"The ninth level, the ninth level! Wow, it's my first time here, so it looks like this."

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Ning Zhuo broke through the ninth level and arrived at the transit hall.

"Roar!"

At the right time and place, the Golden Blood War Ape · Dasheng appeared.

After a tragic battle, the giant wooden puppet fell apart, leaving only Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo returned to his individual form and quickly took Yuan Dasheng to the front.

He pushed open the second Dao Gate and entered it, surprisingly finding: the Dao Gate level was really quite special!

Ning Zhuo was instilled with a spell called the Five Elements Mutual Generation and Mutual Restraint Technique.

The principle of this spell is quite simple, which is Five Elements Mutual Generation (Wood generates Fire, Fire generates Earth, Earth generates Metal, Metal generates Water, Water generates Wood), and Five Elements Mutual Restraint (Wood restrains Earth, Earth restrains Water, Water restrains Fire, Fire restrains Metal, Metal restrains Wood).

But it is very complicated to cast.

From the simplest point of view, this spell can be divided into ten small spells, corresponding to the two aspects of mutual generation and mutual restraint.

On this basis, spells can be connected to each other, for example, after Wood generates Fire, follow with Fire generating Earth, forming the result that Wood-element spiritual power finally obtains Earth-element spiritual power.

Not only generation, but also the relationship chain of restraint.

These spells combine with each other to form a very complex relationship diagram.

Ning Zhuo tried it simply once, and soon found that this Five Elements Mutual Generation and Mutual Restraint Technique had extraordinary significance for the Five Elements Qi Law.

"In the past, if I wanted to cast the Ice-Holding Technique, I had to extract the Water-element part from the five-element mana."

"But now, I can convert the other four-element mana into Water-element mana."

"In this way, I possess pure Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth mana, which is not only more convenient for casting spells like the Ice-Holding Technique, but also has abundant mana, allowing the Ice-Holding Technique to have stronger power!"

After Ning Zhuo obtained the Five Elements Mutual Generation and Mutual Restraint Technique, he faced another choice.

The walls of the room were covered with circular discs the size of a palm. Some were perfect circles, some were ellipses, looking like formation plates.

Each formation plate had five-element signs and extremely cumbersome formation patterns.

"These machines are called Five Elements Spirit-Turning Plates. I must use five-element mana to unlock the locks on the formation plates before I can take them for my own use."

Obviously, the more complex the puzzles on the Five Elements Spirit-Turning Plates, the higher the difficulty, and the better the quality.

This encounter of Ning Zhuo was not as superior as the Buddha Gate side.

In the first level of the Buddha Gate, he took out Yuan Dasheng's corpse and obtained the Golden Blood War Ape · Dasheng, taking advantage of his Immortal Talent.

And in the special level of the second Dao Gate, he could only rely on his attainments in five-element spells to try to solve the puzzles and obtain a Five Elements Spirit-Turning Plate.

He was still too young and lacked time to practice spells. The reason he often imparted spellcasting insights to others was basically relying on the rewards of the ranking list, which caused his spellcasting experience to accumulate abnormally.

Ning Zhuo tried for a while, then took the initiative to withdraw from the Dao Gate, entered the path of the Buddha Gate, and tried to break through.

His Qi Sea cultivation was promoted directly by the divine sea cultivation with the help of Ice Jade Wine.

Ning Zhuo was clear in his heart that his greatest advantage still lay in the divine sea. Therefore, the Buddha Gate path was the most suitable for him to attack.

The result of the attempt was still a failure.

After his soul returned to his flesh, Ning Zhuo once again received the praise of the entire clan!

He broke through the ninth level and entered the transit hall, achieving such results, which was the first in the Ning family, breaking his previous record.

Many praises came, but Ning Zhuo remained calm in his heart.

On the one hand, this was the result of Sun Lingtong's many years of teaching; on the other hand, Ning Zhuo was very clear about the situation.

Since the recruitment order was issued, the situation had become much more complicated than before!

Ning Zhuo had to ensure that he was always in a competitive advantage on the path of soul entering the Immortal Palace. At the same time, he had to pay close attention to the competitive route of body entering the Immortal Palace.

Zhu Xuanji was a leader in the latter route.

This made Ning Zhuo feel pressured, but also glad that Zhu Xuanji's focus had shifted from investigating cases to the Immortal Palace.

And on this arena of soul entering the Immortal Palace, Meng Chong, who possessed Immortal Talent, was the most powerful impact on Ning Zhuo.

The exploration of the Lava Immortal Palace also encountered a bottleneck, and Ning Zhuo had been stuck at the first level of the second Buddha Gate and the second Dao Gate.

What Ning Zhuo needs to do now is to promote his cultivation with all his strength!

According to his understanding of the Lava Immortal Palace, the third Buddha Gate, Dao Gate, and Demon Gate are likely to appear next. By then, he will need corresponding cultivation to push the door and enter.

Ning Zhuo is not like Meng Chong or Ning Xiaohui, who have family support, and they only need to focus on one thing.

Ning Zhuo must circle between major forces, seize the opportunity to operate space suitable for his own development, and do his best to absorb external resources.

For example, Ice Jade Wine is something Ning Zhuo urgently needs.

With it, it directly saved Ning Zhuo several months of hard work, allowing his Qi Sea cultivation to soar directly to the peak of the sixth level!

Ning Zhuo explored the Lava Immortal Palace and achieved good results again!

Ning Xiaohui heard this information, and her face turned a bit green.

Recently, Ning Zhuo was definitely a man of the hour in the Ning family! He pulled Young Clan Leader Ning Xiaoren down from his horse, and in a blink of an eye, he unified the black market and became the new master of the black market.

Then, Ning Zhuo gathered most of the members of the Reform Team and explored again, reaching the transit hall.

Ning Xiaohui felt under great pressure!

Every time Ning Zhuo explored the Immortal Palace with success, Ning Xiaohui felt an invisible big slap, slapping her face, making her feel quite ashamed and angry.

Ning Xiaohui knew deeply that she shouldered the majesty of the main branch!

"I must explore the Immortal Palace and achieve achievements that surpass Ning Zhuo, only then can it be considered okay!"

"I explore alone, that mechanical ape won't find me so quickly."

"Lava Immortal Palace, I am coming!"

Ning Xiaohui opened her eyes and pushed open the first door in the form of a wooden puppet.

Yuan Dasheng had been waiting for a long time, grinning at Ning Xiaohui, smiling slightly.

Ning Xiaohui felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
