Chapter 392: Energy Network for Countering the Void Devourer

"Theoretically, this should help ordinary Practitioners guide the fusion of Five Elements Energy more easily," Xu Feng explained to Shi Qi, who had come to visit. "Although it cannot replace true cultivation, it can at least allow them to experience the feeling of Five Elements resonance, laying a foundation for further cultivation."

Shi Qi observed the device with curiosity: "How are the results?"

"Initial tests are very promising," Xu Feng said proudly. "About 70% of the junior students in the academy can achieve preliminary dual-element fusion through this device, and about 30% can achieve three-element fusion. Although the fusion intensity and stability are still limited, it is already a huge step forward for beginners."

"Does Lin Xuan know about this progress?" Shi Qi asked.

Xu Feng nodded: "I briefed him yesterday. He is very supportive of this direction and even suggested proposing the 'Global Awakened Network' plan at the Kunlun Council, incorporating the cultivation of ordinary people into the overall strategy of resisting the Void."

Inside the Kunlun Council hall, Practitioner representatives and government officials from all over the world were engaged in heated discussion. Lin Xuan stood on the podium, having just finished a detailed introduction of the "Global Awakened Network" plan.

"The awakening of Earth Consciousness has created unprecedented opportunities for us," Lin Xuan said in a firm tone. "More and more ordinary people are spontaneously awakening their cultivation talents. We need a systematic method to identify, train, and organize these Awakened, allowing them to become an important force in resisting the Void."

"How will it be implemented specifically?" a representative from Europe asked.

"We will establish a global information network," Lin Xuan replied. "First, we will use the branch system of the Five Elements Academy as a foundation, then expand to broader communities. Each region will set up Awakened identification stations to provide preliminary assessments and guidance for potential Practitioners. For individuals who show special talents, we will provide more targeted training programs."

After two hours of discussion and debate, the council passed the plan by an overwhelming majority. In the following weeks, the "Global Awakened Network" spread rapidly across all continents, and Awakened in various places began to be identified and guided to join this network. Among them, there was no shortage of those with special talents—some displayed unique energy perception abilities, while others were able to guide elemental energy in special ways.

Meanwhile, Li Yan made contact with the Purple Star resistance forces through secret channels. In an encrypted communication, the Purple Star scientist Mo Rui passed important intelligence to her.

"Most Purple Star residents do not support Yage's coup," Mo Rui's voice was intermittent due to signal interference, but the content was clear. "Many people have realized that Yage's actions are not to save Purple Star, but to push us toward greater danger. Our team of scientists is secretly researching how to counter Void Pollution and has already achieved some initial results."

"What help do you need?" Li Yan asked.

"We need samples of Earth's Five Elements Energy," Mo Rui replied. "According to our research, although Purple Star's energy system is different from Earth's, there is complementarity on certain levels. If we can establish a cross-dimensional energy fusion technology, perhaps we can enhance our ability to resist the Void."

Li Yan reported this situation to Lin Xuan, who immediately decided to send a delegation composed of Practitioners and scientists to Purple Star, not only bringing the required energy samples but also proposing a joint effort to resist the Void. With the assistance of Ga Luo, the delegation arrived at Purple Star through the safe passage of the Dimension Balance Array and was warmly welcomed by the resistance forces.

One month later, in the central hall of the Five Elements Academy headquarters, a Global Guardian Conference was underway. Senior Practitioners from all over the world, including the five Guardians, representatives of the extraterrestrial scientists, representatives of the Purple Star resistance forces, and recently emerged individuals with special talents, gathered together.

When it was Lin Xuan's turn to speak, he walked onto the podium.

"In my deep meditation over the past few weeks, I experienced a Wood Origin Breakthrough, resonating directly with Earth's Wood Element Origin, and saw the deeper layers of the Five Elements energy system. This led me to form a new theory—the Five Elements Resonance Theory."

The hall went quiet, and everyone listened attentively.

"The core concept of Five Elements Resonance is: if all Practitioners can reach the level of resonating with the Origin in their respective fields, our combined strength may awaken more Life Essence, forming an Energy Network capable of resisting the Void Devourer."

Lin Xuan raised his hand, and a complex holographic projection appeared in the center of the hall, displaying the structure of the Energy Network he envisioned.

"This is not just a cultivation method, but a brand-new worldview," he continued to explain. "The Five Elements are no longer independent forms of energy, but different expressions of a single integrated system. When we understand and accept this, our cultivation will no longer be limited to improving personal ability, but will become an organic part of the entire life network."

"That sounds wonderful," an elderly Practitioner questioned, "but how is it achieved in actual practice? Most Practitioners might need decades to reach the level of resonating with the Origin."

Lin Xuan nodded with a smile: "This is exactly the challenge we need to solve together. The Element Resonator developed by Xu Feng is a good start, and the Five Elements Fusion Training Class organized by Xiao Yuan has also shown promise. But more importantly, we need to change the mindset of traditional cultivation, moving from competition to cooperation, and from individual transcendence to collective resonance."

"The reason the Void Devourer is powerful is because it represents absolute entropy increase and Hun Dun."

The conference lasted for three full days, with representatives from all sides sharing their research results. Xiao Yuan introduced the progress of Five Elements fusion, Xu Feng demonstrated the improved version of the Element Resonator, Shi Qi shared the latest breakthroughs in the Earth Origin Perception Network, Ling Bo explained the application of Water Origin Spiritual Connection Technology, and Li Yan reported on the latest progress in cooperation with Purple Star.

On the last day of the conference, Lin Xuan stood on the podium again, summarizing the discussions of the past few days.

"The challenges we face are unprecedented, but the potential we possess is also infinite," his voice was full of hope. "The Global Awakened Network is taking shape, the Dimension Balance Array is operating stably, the teaching system of the Five Elements Academy is becoming increasingly perfect, and cooperation with Purple Star has also achieved breakthroughs. Most importantly, Earth Consciousness and the Tree of Life provide us with a powerful backing."

Night fell, and the Kunlun Mountains were shrouded in tranquil starlight. Most of the students at the Five Elements Academy were already asleep, with only a few night-watch Practitioners still patrolling various areas. Lin Xuan stood alone on the Star Observation Platform at the summit, closing his eyes to feel through the Wood Element Net.
