Chapter 697

The stage of planting symbols in the midst of a phenomenon focuses on the cultivator's level of comprehension regarding their cultivation technique.

Once the standard of comprehension is reached, a complete natal spell can be formed.

The manifestations of natal spells differ from one another.

Now, within Unlike Ning Zhuo's Qi Sea, the natal spell of the Five Elements Qi Law has already fully taken shape.

It possesses a five-colored radiance and is constantly changing shape. When it is a single color, it is merely a perfect sphere. If there are two types of radiance, it has two corners. Three colors make a triangle, four colors a quadrilateral, and upon reaching five colors, it becomes a three-dimensional pentagram.

Of course, this is only from a rough external view. If one examines it closely, inside the pentagram are complex, rigorous, and compressed-to-the-extreme talisman textures that are constantly shifting.

Five Qi Life-Death Art!

After Unlike Ning Zhuo achieved thorough comprehension, he naturally understood the power of this spell.

It is, in fact, the ultimate manifestation of the Five Elements Qi Law's marvelous utility. The specialty of this cultivation technique is the mastery of the five elements, their mutual generation and restriction, and their harmonious unification.

The Five Qi Life-Death Art allows one to directly mobilize any one of the five elemental magic powers and then exert the effects of generation and restriction. Because one can control all five types of magic power simultaneously, the resulting generative and restrictive effects are several dozen times greater than before!

For example, previously, if Unlike Ning Zhuo wanted to convert all his magic power into Wood-element, he could only control one type of magic power, so he had to start the conversion from Fire-element magic power.

One unit of Fire-element magic power generates two units of Earth-element magic power. The Fire-element magic power disappears completely.

Unlike Ning Zhuo controls the Earth-element magic power and begins to generate Metal-element magic power.

After the Metal-element magic power is completely consumed, it generates double the amount of Water-element magic power, and Unlike Ning Zhuo begins to control the Water-element magic power alone.

The Water-element magic power finally generates Wood-element magic power; in this way, the five elemental magic powers are purified into a single elemental magic power, and the scale of the magic power expands by more than six times.

Converting them one by one, even if Unlike Ning Zhuo tried his absolute best, would not take a short amount of time.

But now, under the Five Qi Life-Death Art, the five elemental magic powers convert simultaneously; the speed has undergone a qualitative change, and the time consumed is greatly reduced, completing in almost two or three breaths.

Unlike Ning Zhuo extended his palm, urged the five elemental magic powers, and a cluster of vines grew between his palms.

It was precisely one of the two major Earth-element spells he was most proficient in—Root Vine Entanglement.

He immediately noticed the difference.

Previously, if he wanted to cast this spell rapidly, he could only use the Wood-element among the five elemental spells.

Now, as long as he spends a little time, he can convert all five elemental magic powers into Wood-element, increasing the scale of his magic power by more than six times.

"Worth it!" Seeing that the vines in his hand were more than six times larger than before upon the second casting, Unlike Ning Zhuo felt very satisfied.

He then continuously cast other single-element spells and discovered that, under the enhancement of the Five Qi Life-Death Art, they all performed even better.

Especially—Five Qi Torrent!

Unlike Ning Zhuo spread his five fingers and pressed them forward into the void.

Immediately, five-colored magic power gushed out, forming a spiraling torrent that charged forward.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's expression suddenly flickered.

Under his control, the Five Qi Torrent suddenly had its radiance flow, producing different changes. At times it was crimson, at times it was as black as ink.

Even when the Five Qi Torrent is cast, under the enhancement of the Five Qi Life-Death Art, it can undergo the generation and destruction changes of the five elements.

"In this case—"

Unlike Ning Zhuo attempted to convert it into a single element, and it was indeed successful. The volume of the previous torrent expanded suddenly by more than six times, but the spiraling rotation disappeared; this offensive move was not purely an enhancement.

Single-element magic power can be more targeted, while the Five Qi Torrent can deal with complex enemy situations.

Unlike Ning Zhuo, possessing a profound Five Elements realm, immediately took advantage of the situation to design an improved spell—Five Qi Torrent Variation!

Clearly, the Five Qi Life-Death Art is an auxiliary spell. Activating it can help a cultivator greatly master their five elemental magic powers.

Once it is not activated, this assistance disappears in an instant.

The Five Elements Qi Law originally followed the path of strict control over the five elements, and the Five Qi Life-Death Art, as a core spell, dug into the positioning of this cultivation technique to the extreme.

"Wait a moment, what if I am also activating the Five Viscera Spirit God Art?" Unlike Ning Zhuo then naturally thought of this layer.

He immediately divided his spiritual sense into five parts, investing them into the five viscera spirit god temples, making the spirit statues in each temple become vivid and lifelike.

In this way, his level of control over five elemental spells was immediately elevated to a level of precision and subtlety.

The effects of the two are very similar.

And what surprised Unlike Ning Zhuo was that the effects of the two did not cancel each other out or become ineffective, but could be perfectly superimposed!

Previously, when Unlike Ning Zhuo used the Five Viscera Spirit God Art, he had successively made Wen Ruanyu, Yang Sanyan, and others marvel at Unlike Ning Zhuo's attainments in five elemental spells.

Now, it is strength upon strength! Unlike Ning Zhuo's level of control over five elemental spells directly reached an extremely excellent degree.

Such benefits were immediately reflected in his spell practice.

Unlike Ning Zhuo selected a few relatively unfamiliar spells and began practicing them on the spot.

In the superimposed state, his control over the spells was extremely formidable, even for spells he had just learned.

In the process of learning, Unlike Ning Zhuo was also constantly adjusting. Every adjustment, no matter how subtle in degree, Unlike Ning Zhuo could achieve.

"Cough, cough, cough—"

Unlike Ning Zhuo released the superimposed state, his face pale, emitting a weak cough.

Although the superimposed state is good, the burden on his spiritual sense is too great. After all, when he used the Five Viscera Spirit God Art before, he always used a single spirit viscera temple.

As for the Five Qi Life-Death Art, because a talisman was condensed, Unlike Ning Zhuo only needed to infuse magic power, making it very convenient to use.

This is the benefit of a natal spell.

Unlike Ning Zhuo attempted to practice brand-new spells.

When only activating the Five Qi Life-Death Art or the Five Viscera Spirit God Art, the practice effect was about ten times that of the unenhanced state.

In the superimposed state, the practice effect surged to more than a hundred times!

The enhancement effects of the two mutually achieved each other; it was not a simple addition, but multiplication.

"This is truly wonderful!" Unlike Ning Zhuo felt joy from the bottom of his heart.

All along, although he possessed a high-level Five Elements realm, he had no time to practice the relevant spells.

He could only replace practice with combat.

But because of the existence of the Five Viscera Spirit God Art, even if he lacked practice, casting these spells could still meet the standards of actual combat, and even repeatedly achieve success.

Now, Unlike Ning Zhuo can practice extensively and truly master various five elemental spells.

This will inevitably be of significant help to the growth of his combat power!

For a time, Unlike Ning Zhuo immersed himself in the practice of five elemental spells.

He progressed rapidly; for many brand-new spells, he only needed to practice them three or four times before he could perform them with flair.

This rapid growth filled Unlike Ning Zhuo's heart with a sense of achievement time and time again, to the point that even Shen Xi's letter was thrown to the back of his mind by Unlike Ning Zhuo.

Martial Arts Branch Hall.

Su Lingkou stood beside Shen Xi; the final result of the young girl looking forward to Unlike Ning Zhuo was disappointment: "Cousin, Unlike Ning Zhuo didn't come at all. He didn't even reply to the letter; is he afraid?"

Shen Xi shook his head: "Retreating for cultivation and not replying to flying letters is a common occurrence; there is no need to worry."

Su Lingkou: "But—"
