Chapter 56: Five-elemental Breathing Technique

Gradually, his mind reached inner calmness, and he started to slowly visualise earth in his vision.

The earth felt very vivid in his visualisation, as if Aur was seeing it in reality. His body cramped as he visualised the earth, and his white complexion turned to a brownish complexion; it was as if Aur's body had turned into soil and rock.

At that moment, Aur was slowly synchronising with earth itself with his body.

However, soon after, Aur slowly started to visualise Water, and his brownish complexion soon returned to normal. But it changed again to a blue complexion, with his body temperature decreasing to a terrifying extent.

The water in his body started to strangely resonate and increase in amount, making his body slightly bloated.

Soon, Aur's vision changed to a fire that felt real, as if there was a physical fire in his body that was slowly burning him.

Aur's temperature slowly started to increase as his complexion became redder and redder as time passed on.

The slightly bloated body of Aur started to release steam from the sheer temperature of Aur's body.

Aur's vision changed again to nothing, with nothing in his vision. However, he could feel the wind that was caressing his skin; it was air.

The physical body of Aur started to become light, and the rising temperature of his body slowly calmed down, becoming normal again.

Soon, Aur's vision returned to the visualisation of earth again, with his complexion becoming brown again.

However, that didn't stop there, as Aur's visualisation occurred again. This time, he saw himself surrounded by fire, water, earth, and air in his spirit form, all rotating around his spirit in harmony.

The physical body of Aur shone with four colours of light simultaneously as he slowly opened his eyes with a dull expression on his face.

"Water nourishes Earth, Fire transforms Water, Air nurtures the Fire, Earth shaped and eroded by Air. The Spirit unifies and animates all things: Earth, Water, Fire, Air."

He muttered in a trance state, his eyes blank.

"I have initiated the breathing technique..." Aur thought, his eyes gaining clarity.

He looked around at his normal surroundings.

"Hmm, what time is it?" He glanced at the clock.

"Young master Leo came to contact you," Lucy said with an uncertain expression on her face.

"Hmm, Leo?" Aur frowned when he thought of the guy.

"What did he say?"

"He was talking about the restaurant..."

"Oh, that." Aur nodded his head carelessly. "Whatever, I need some fresh air anyway." He stretched his body.

"When is the party?"

"It should be at night, young master."

"Okay." Aur just nodded his head with a shrug.

"I still have time." He looked at the time. There were still three hours left, so he went back to training again.

Since he had learned the breathing technique and did his first circulation, he hadn't used it since then.

"I will do another cycle of breathing before going..." Aur muttered as he sat down in a meditative position and gained his calmness, with his vision changing to earth again.

Just like that, Aur's complexion changed from white to brown, then blue, and then red like fire, with his complexion becoming neutral again. Then again, his complexion changed to brown with four lights flashing in his body.

Aur slowly opened his eyes with a satisfied expression. Although he couldn't sense any changes in his own body, his understanding of the five elements had significantly increased.

The understanding of the five elements wasn't only theoretical knowledge, which Aur had already gained by just reading books. It was more of a connection to the five elements and understanding them from their true form.

"In this way, if I practise the five elemental spells for half a month, I can feel that I will fully master the five elemental spells." Aur thought with a satisfied expression.

The two days of his training had only increased his muscle mass attribute by 0.01, which could be said to be progressing at a snail's pace at most, with no significant increase to it.

While Aur could do his physical exercise faster since his body was stronger, his body was also becoming stronger and stronger, meaning that it wasn't increasing as much as he wanted to.

"Maybe I need some heavy objects to train my muscles more..." Aur thought with a frown. Another thing might be because of blood and Qi as well. Since the two attributes mixed together, it didn't mean he only needed to increase his muscle to get stronger.
