Chapter 340: Wujin Divine Phase Art, A Desperate Struggle

Leaving the treasury, Du Xiaofeng looked at the jade slip in his hand, his expression somewhat serious.

This type of inheritance jade slip for cultivation arts is different from ordinary arts; it directly pours the art into the successor's mind, allowing them to quickly grasp the basics.

However, the rule of Mount Wudao is that all martial artists entering Mount Wudao cannot bring any external objects with them.

This means this art can only be learned by Qin Yan first, and then passed on orally to Lin Chen.

In this way, Lin Chen cannot personally experience the finer details of this art and must rely on his own comprehension.

Yet, this type of inheritance art is precisely because it is extremely difficult to grasp the basics relying solely on oral formulas and mental cultivation methods that the inheritance form is used; otherwise, there would be no need to produce inheritance jade slips. One must know that those fellows in the Qianji Region open their mouths like lions for every inheritance jade slip, and the price is extremely expensive.

"If you can comprehend the basics of this art and neutralize the power of the Li Fire, this Elder will definitely take you as a personal disciple."

Du Xiaofeng whispered a sentence. If Lin Chen could succeed in cultivation relying only on Qin Yan's oral account, then regardless of how far Lin Chen could go on Mount Wudao, he would take him as a personal disciple.

This martial arts comprehension would be enough.

In the courtyard.

After receiving the information from the jade slip, Qin Yan sighed in his heart. He felt it would be very difficult for Lin Shidi to cultivate this art to the point of grasping the basics.

Judging solely from the inheritance information he received, this art has extremely high requirements for the cultivator's comprehension and physical body; a slight carelessness would result in being burned to ashes by the Li Fire.

He even vaguely doubted whether anyone could truly succeed in cultivating this art.

"Qin Shixiong, is this art very difficult?"

Seeing Qin Yan's expression, Gu Kong also asked softly from the side.

"Very difficult."

A bitter smile appeared on Qin Yan's face: "To be honest, I don't think Lin Chen can succeed in cultivating it."

Gu Kong did not ask further. Qin Shixiong's words and expression had already explained everything. As an outer sect disciple, he was also powerless and had to rely on Du Zhanglao's decision.

"You go climb Mount Wudao now, contact Lin Chen, pass this art to him, and tell him that if he can cultivate this art to the basics and resolve the crisis, this Elder promises him the status of a personal disciple."

Du Xiaofeng also walked out from the back courtyard door, his gaze sweeping over Qin Yan, who hurriedly agreed.

If it were any other time, hearing Du Zhanglao say this, he would be full of envy for Lin Chen, perhaps even jealous. The status of a personal disciple of a Canglan Sect Elder is incomparably precious; among three thousand inner sect disciples, there are only a few dozen personal disciples.

But now, he was not jealous at all. If Lin Chen could truly cultivate this "Wujin Divine Phase Art" to the basics, relying solely on this martial arts comprehension, he would be fully worthy of the status of a personal disciple.

"This disciple will bring the message."

"Mm."

Du Xiaofeng left. He would not care about the following matters. If that Lin Chen died, then this matter would end there.

If he truly survived, there would be news from Mount Wudao later.

"Qin Yan, this elixir was given by Du Zhanglao. You have been at the Seventh Rank stage for a year; after taking this elixir, it will allow you to step into the Sixth Rank stage."

Gao Zeming gave Qin Yan an elixir. Looking at this green elixir, a look of wild joy appeared on Qin Yan's face. This is a mid-grade Barrier-Breaking Elixir; after taking it, it is enough for him to instantly break through from the Seventh Rank to the Sixth Rank.

If he were to cultivate normally, he feared it would take another two months to break through this barrier.

Two months is nothing in a long martial arts cultivation career, but for disciples like them, breaking through two months earlier means having one more hope of becoming an inner sect disciple.

In the courtyard, watching Qin Yan come out of Mount Wudao again, Gao Zeming asked expectantly: "Did you meet Lin Chen?"

"No."

Qin Yan scratched his head: "Could it be that Lin Shidi has already failed?"

A day has passed, and Lin Shidi has fought at least another hundred matches; it's not guaranteed that he didn't lose one.

Given Lin Shidi's situation, losing means death.

"You continue to challenge; I will send a message to Mount Wudao to ask about the situation."

"Yes."

Mount Wudao ranking 45562!

Qin Yan defeated an opponent and looked at his ranking. This time, he did not exit Mount Wudao and continued to start the next match.

With his current strength, advancing more than a thousand places is definitely no problem.

Battle Plain.

When he saw his opponent, Qin Yan let out a long sigh of relief; he finally met Lin Shidi.

Opposite him, Lin Chen saw Qin Yan and also let out a sigh of relief; he had finally waited for him.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

Qin Yan asked: 【Lin Shidi, have you remembered it?】

Lin Chen: 【I have remembered it, thank you Qin Shixiong.】 Qin Yan's expression was somewhat complex, wanting to say something, but in the end, it turned into one sentence: 【Lin Shidi, if you are not certain, do not easily exit Mount Wudao; Du Zhanglao will also find other ways to save you.】

In Qin Yan's view, the possibility of Lin Chen successfully cultivating this art was too small.

Without inheritance, relying only on his own oral account, and most crucially, Lin Shidi did not even have time to think and comprehend; to stay on Mount Wudao, he needed to keep fighting.

It would be better to continue challenging on Mount Wudao; sometimes time is a life-saving straw. Perhaps that Li Fire would leave on its own?

But he could not say this clearly; he was afraid of discouraging Lin Shidi, so he could only use this way to remind him secretly.

Mount Wudao steps.

In Lin Chen's mind, he was constantly evolving the "Wujin Divine Phase Art" given by Qin Yan.

The Wujin Divine Phase Art is a body-tempering art specifically for absorbing various innate fires, and Li Fire is one of them.

The so-called "Wujin" (No Ashes) refers to absorbing all innate fires under heaven for one's own use, without missing a single strand, and using these innate fires to temper a divine body.

"The Zhenyue Spectrum I cultivate has some similarities with this 'Wujin Divine Phase Art', which allows me to comprehend this 'Wujin Divine Phase Art' faster."

What Lin Chen was fortunate about was that he had cultivated body-tempering arts, so he could clearly understand some of the Qi-circulating methods of the "Wujin Divine Phase Art".

A hundred breaths passed in a flash, and Lin Chen entered Mount Wudao again.

Thus, he fought five hundred matches in a row.

Seven days later.

Canglan Sect, Gao Zeming looked at the latest news from Mount Wudao, his expression complex.

This was information from Mount Wudao a day ago; after entering the top 40,000, Lin Chen stopped challenging.

If he didn't challenge for more than three hours, it was impossible to stay on Mount Wudao, and he must have returned to reality.

Lin Chen should have already comprehended the "Wujin Divine Phase Art"; otherwise, it would be impossible for him to actively leave Mount Wudao.

But he had already learned from Qin Yan that this "Wujin Divine Phase Art" is not considered successful just by comprehending it; the first step to entering the basics is to absorb a strand of innate fire into the body, and with Lin Shidi's stage, a slight carelessness would result in being burned to ashes by that Li Fire.

"I hope Lin Chen can succeed."

Even if it wasn't for Du Zhanglao's reward, as a member of the Canglan Sect, Gao Zeming also hoped the sect would have one more super genius.

The moment Lin Chen withdrew from Mount Wudao, he opened his eyes abruptly. His pupils reflected a boiling sea of crimson-gold fire. The magma torrent had already swallowed the entire sealed space, and the vacuum area half a zhang around him was now being crazily surged upon by the sea of fire.

Feeling the terrifying high temperature, Lin Chen's expression remained unchanged. From the moment he exited Mount Wudao, he had already prepared himself mentally. According to the description in the "Wujin Divine Phase Art", the first time absorbing innate fire, one needs the assistance of other elixirs.

But he had no other elixirs on him; the only thing he could rely on was that Canglan Token.

The Canglan Token contains Canglan energy, and Canglan energy is extremely cold, which could help him suppress the Li Fire for a short time.

This was the only way to break the situation he had thought of after seven days of thinking.

As the mental cultivation method of the "Wujin Divine Phase Art" was activated, the surrounding sea of fire changed for a moment, actually starting to retreat backward, but one strand of crimson-red fire shot toward Lin Chen, as if something was attracting it.

The moment the crimson-red fire touched the skin of his chest, Lin Chen's muscles twitched violently, and his entire chest was charred black. The flame actually drilled into his pores like a living thing, driving straight in along the meridians.

Lin Chen's face also became ferocious. At this moment, he only felt his entire chest being roasted on a furnace fire, and that flame wanted to devour everything in his body.

Boom!

Inside his dantian, a strand of ice-blue energy emerged, surging toward his chest at the first moment, wrapping Lin Chen's entire chest to prevent that strand of fire from ravaging his body.

Swish!

Just as Lin Chen had wrapped the flame on his chest, a second strand of crimson-red flame shot over again, but this time it headed toward his abdomen.

Lin Chen's eyes widened, biting his teeth hard, his right hand gripping the Canglan Token, constantly drawing Canglan energy into his body.

One strand, two strands, three strands......

Blue smoke was emitting from Lin Chen's seven orifices. This pain of being burned by flames made his entire soul feel a pain of being torn apart.

If it weren't for the fact that he had experienced many pains in order to cultivate the Zhenyue Spectrum, his body's ability to withstand pain far exceeded that of ordinary martial artists, and if it weren't for his soul constantly growing with his winning streak on Mount Wudao, he would have fainted long ago.

Innate fire entering the body, a slight carelessness, and it is a pain of being unable to live and unable to die.

In just a few breaths, Lin Chen had completely turned into a black man, yet even so, he was still absorbing the Li Fire.

Five organs, whole body, four limbs, meridians, acupoints......

At this moment, even between his breathing and exhaling, his tightly bitten teeth were trembling from the pain, and the exhaled breath carried flames.

"Must succeed, I am not willing to die just like this."

What supported Lin Chen was the hope of living. He didn't want to die just like this. He had traveled to this world and hadn't yet witnessed the true peak of the Martial Way.

He is not willing!

The Canglan Token held in his hand now showed cracks, and the Canglan energy contained within was being continuously transported into his body, but it couldn't withstand the terror of the flames.

Seeing that the Canglan energy was about to be exhausted, and the Li Fire in his body hadn't stopped burning and ravaging at all, in Lin Chen's bosom, another jade pendant now emitted a strand of green luster, sticking to his skin and merging into Lin Chen's body.
