Chapter 171: Chapter 170 Diving Spell__1
Great Void Elixir Scripture” is the most prestigious and universally accepted classic in the Cultivation World.
The Great Void Elixir Scripture” stated in its opening dialogue what the superior method of refining pills is: “Use the great void as the cauldron, the Taiji as the furnace, purity as the foundation of the pill, inaction as the Dantian, life and character as the mercury, and the five internal organs as the fire.”
This is where the Samadhi True Fire comes from, and as such, it is often revered as the treasure for refining pills by Pill Masters.
The Samadhi True Fire can refine heavenly and earthly treasures and likewise, in a certain sense, cultivators are also considered heavenly and earthly treasures, so you can imagine the consequence if it encounters cultivators.
Lu Yang’s Three Flavored True Fire is derived from the Samadhi True Fire, though it is somewhat less potent, but it is not to be trifled with.
On the Dueling Plaza, Lu Yang’s Three Flavored True Fire is in full swing, turning into a fire dragon, biting the Golden Crow and tearing apart the Golden Crow flame.
Bai Ming couldn’t believe the scene before his eyes. Could someone really learn True Fire at the Foundation Establishment Stage, not to mention the renowned Samadhi True Fire?
This was something he, who has been adored and praised since childhood, found hard to accept.
On the spectators’ platform, Qiu Jin’an was initially beating his thigh excitedly as he watched his excellent disciple Bai Ming conjure the Golden Crow flame with great splendour. But his laughter was cut short when he saw Lu Yang conjure the True Fire.
“Is this Samadhi True Fire? No, it is very close to Samadhi True Fire!”
Qiu Jin’an searched through all the True Fires he knew, but none of them matched this one.
A chilling thought emerged in his mind: could this be a flame not included in the 108 known True Fires?
Was it unrecorded and undiscovered before, or was it just created by someone?
“Sect Master Lu, what kind of True Fire is this?”
Fairy Eternity spoke lightly, “It’s nothing, just a type of fire used for roasting skewers. Sect Master Qiu doesn’t need to make a fuss over it.”
Fairy Eternity’s attitude further affirmed Qiu Jin’an’s speculation, which made him take a sharp breath inwardly.
How could this Sect Master Lu be so powerful and not only master the three magic skills of wood, earth, and fire, just like Bai Ming, but also create a new magic skill on top of that?
Creation of magic skill is totally fine, but creating a True Fire?
Bai Ming was burned by the Three Flavored True Fire, then punched in the chest by the advancing Lu Yang and was sent flying with a volatile combination of sweet, salty and spicy flavours, his breath weak, and barely clinging to life.
In the process of being thrown backwards, he realized he had lost the battle and had no power to turn the tides.
Should he admit defeat with grace? Or persist and wait for the announcement of the match results?
Scenes flashed through Bai Ming’s mind—
When he was a child, he was taken to the mountain by his master, nurtured by his senior brothers and sisters, assiduously reading books, persistently working out, and during his Cultivation periods, his master went stern, chiding him and making him refine his attitude and posture. After the cultivation session, his master would rub medicine on his wounds and encourage him to persevere.
He was soaked in sweat through his meticulous practice, unremitting his efforts, understanding the magic skills, enduring the harsh seasons and loneliness, accumulating and releasing his energy for quick growth, progressing from Qi Refinement to Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment without a single defeat.
Bai Ming closed his eyes, contemplating his various encounters with Lu Yang during the battle, he felt as if something inside of him was sprouting.
He landed smoothly, clasped his hands together and stood on one foot, his energy growing stronger.
Bai Ming opened his eyes radiating power beyond his own.
“He broke through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment?” Qiu Jin’an was overjoyed to see the breakthrough of his disciple.
Bai Ming remained in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment for a few months, so it was truly time for him to breakthrough. But he did not expect it to happen at that moment.
The teachings in the Five Elements Sect turned heads, what a dramatic turn of events.
Lu Yang was not sure how to react. He was just about to win, but then this opponent has a breakthrough in the middle of the battle?!
Isn’t this the sort of thing that’s supposed to happen to me?
“Well, let’s continue.” Lu Yang lifted his Green Peak Sword. He hadn’t used his real power yet, neither the ‘Zhan’ or the ‘Po’ magical formula was activated yet. There’s no need for the Imitation Fist. That’ll be too much. Lu Yang wouldn’t be that heartless.
Lu Yang, Lu Yang, swap me in!” Fairy Eternity called out to Lu Yang, itching to see Lu Yang in action and also wanting a piece of the action herself.
Fairy Eternity was in a spirit state, without a twenty-meter limit, so as long as Lu Yang agreed, she could split a clone for Lu Yang at any time.
Lu Yang was a bit suspicious. Could he really depend on Fairy Eternity?
Fairy Eternity stood with her hands on her hips, pointing at Lu Yang: “I am the Sect Leader. You need to listen to me!”
Lu Yang gave in helplessly. Fine, she brought out the Acting Sect Leader card. If it looked like she was losing, he would just reclaim the control.
Fairy Eternity contentedly took control of the bald-headed clone of Lu Yang, raising her right hand and pointing a finger. She looked a little flirtatious.
Bai Ming looked at Lu Yang peculiarly. If the Lu Yang just now resembled a monk, then now he looked like… a nun?
Could it be a split personality?
Bai Ming heard a saying in the Cultivation World, “If not a demon, then not alive.” There were countless practitioners in history who went mad from training. Those who could make a name for themselves in history were undoubtedly powerful.
Could it be that Lu Yang’s strength is because of a split personality?” Bai Ming felt more convinced the more he thought about it.
Fairy Eternity slowly raised her fingers. An Immortal Method coiled around her fingertips, and she softly chanted, “Diving Spell.”
An invisible barrier spread out, with Fairy Eternity at the center, rejecting all the water vapor within the radius.
The battlefield was already not very humid due to the clash of two fires. Now, there wasn’t even a drop of water around Fairy Eternity!
But that wasn’t the scariest part. The scariest part was that Bai Ming’s body also contained water, and it was rapidly leaving his body!
Lu Yang’s body also contained water. However, as the caster, the speed at which the water was drawn from his body was much slower than Bai Ming’s!
Bai Ming looked in horror at his body that was gradually drying up. He didn’t know what to do, he had no way to stop this magic skill. This was beyond his comprehension.
The Diving Spell showed no signs when it was cast. To outsiders, it seemed like nothing had happened. Only the person who experienced it personally knew how terrifying this magic skill was!
“We admit defeat!” Qiu Jin’an personally stepped forward, stopping the water from leaking out of Bai Ming and gave him an Elixir to replenish his body.
He deeply glanced at Lu Yang. As expected of someone who could become the Acting Sect Leader. Proficient in four of the Five Elements magic skills and also knew a water attribute magic skill. Plus it was one of the forbidden Great Divine Skills recorded in ancient scriptures!
Lu Yang’s eyes widened. This was Fairy Eternity’s Diving Spell? Was it really this terrifying?
Fairy Eternity chuckled: “It’s so-so. It’s a shame your current realm is too low, and your senior brothers and sisters are full of Golden Core, not letting out any vapor and locking it within their bodies. This move is useless against them. Once you also reach the Golden Core Stage, and when I use your body to cast this move, none of them would stand a chance against me!”
“Can you teach me?” Lu Yang rubbed his hands, wanting to learn this move.
Fairy Eternity turned her head. “You belittled my inheritance, no teaching!”
“Please teach me, Fairy sister.”
“No teaching! When I say no, I mean no!”
When Qiu Jin’an returned to the stands, he found that Sect Leader Lu was gone and Yun Zhi was sitting next to him.
Although I did say I wanted someone else to sit next to me, I didn’t mean Yun Zhi.
Qiu Jin’an felt the temperature around him drop several degrees.
“Miss Yun Zhi, where did Sect Leader Lu go?” Qiu Jin’an tried to strike up a conversation, otherwise the atmosphere would be too cold.
There are a few guests who are good at barbecuing outside the mountain gate, he went to invite them in.”
“Huh?”
