From Mortal Body to Immortality

#165 - The Five Elements Guixu Method! If you don't show off, how can you make me proud?

Gu Mo's words caused Lu Sheng's mind to shake, and then Lu Sheng fell into deep thought.

In Lu Sheng's mind, he couldn't help but recall the time when he comprehended the Five Elements Artistic Conception Domain.

“When I was facing the Space Wraith, I comprehended the Five Elements Artistic Conception Domain. The clearest point at that time was that I understood that everything in the world is composed of the most basic five elements.”

“In this case, even the robots possessed by the Space Wraiths, and their will…”

“…are all part of the five elements, and my Five Elements Artistic Conception Domain is to dismember the five elements of heaven and earth, so that everything returns to the most basic five elements…”

“And the palm that Instructor Gu Mo just struck me with… made me feel that there was nowhere to hide in this world.”

“The most fundamental reason for this is in Instructor Gu Mo's words, which are also the most important words…”

“The five elements of heaven and earth are everywhere!”

Lu Sheng's mind was running rapidly at this moment, frantically thinking about Gu Mo's words just now, and gradually, a trace of understanding emerged in his mind.

Gu Mo looked at Lu Sheng entering deep thought, and there was a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

Who doesn't like students with good brains and good talent?

There is no need for him to say much, and he can understand things by analogy, inferring three things from one instance, which is the easiest to teach.

“Tell me about the method you are preparing to comprehend Stellar-level martial arts, and I can give you some pointers.”

Thinking of this, Gu Mo spoke to Lu Sheng again.

Lu Sheng came back to his senses, firmly remembered the trace of understanding in his mind, and then told Gu Mo about his plan to merge the six Planetary Laws into one Stellar Law.

He also said that he had already comprehended a Stellar Law.

Even Gu Mo, this extraordinary person who was about to break through the eighth rank, couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise after hearing Lu Sheng's words.

However, he quickly regained his composure, but his eyes looking at Lu Sheng became more and more appreciative.

“Dividing this matter into two steps is indeed a better way, but the steps are still a bit too big.”

Gu Mo said with a smile after only a simple thought.

“Your Life and Death Emperor Seal is derived from Liu Yao's Great Reincarnation Emperor Seal. I didn't expect you to comprehend it in just a few years, but if you want to comprehend Stellar Law with the Five Elements Artistic Conception Domain and its supporting Planetary Laws, you can change the way.”

Lu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly upon hearing this, and made a listening gesture.

Gu Mo stroked his beard and smiled: “What are the similarities between the Five Elements Body Tempering Technique, the Five Elements Chaos Technique, and the Five Elements Star Suppressing Fist that you cultivate?”

Lu Sheng began to think.

“Similarities? Probably they are all based on the power of the five elements? As for other similarities…”

Lu Sheng's brain was running frantically at this moment, and before long, a bright light burst out directly from Lu Sheng's eyes.

“Do you mean to split it up!”

“Split the Five Elements Stellar Law, split it into five individual attributes, improve it step by step, and finally the five elements merge together, which is a complete Stellar Law!”

Lu Sheng quickly understood Gu Mo's meaning.

Why did Gu Mo say that his steps were a bit too big? If combined with these three basic Five Elements Planetary Laws, it can be found.

Whether it is the Five Elements Star Suppressing Fist, the Five Elements Body Tempering Technique, or the Five Elements Chaos Technique, they are all cultivated from the single attribute of the five elements, gradually evolving into the fusion of the five elements, and finally reaching perfection.

Thinking of this, Lu Sheng suddenly fell into a deep thought, and even sat down directly, not caring that Gu Mo was in front of him.

And for Lu Sheng's actions, Gu Mo not only did not have any displeasure, but the look of appreciation in his eyes became more and more intense.

“This child is indeed gifted!”

After saying that, Gu Mo waved his sleeves gently, and then a mysterious force descended around Lu Sheng.

“Comprehending in my cultivation place is a rare opportunity. Looking at the entire School of Life, only you little guy can enjoy it besides Liu Yao.”

“Hope… don't let me down!”

Gu Mo took a deep look at Lu Sheng who had fallen into enlightenment, and then sat down in a corner of the world, quietly waiting for Lu Sheng's understanding.

Gu Mo knew very well that comprehending Stellar Law was not an easy task, even if there were clues, it would take several years to improve it.

So Gu Mo was not in a hurry, so he simply let Lu Sheng continue to comprehend his second Stellar Law here.

Time passed little by little.

Soon, a year passed.

Lu Sheng was sitting in this world, bathing in the power of the five elements, as if he had turned into a statue, motionless.

Suddenly, Gu Mo, who was quietly absorbing the vitality of the world in the distance, seemed to notice something and slowly opened his eyes,

looking at Lu Sheng.

Only a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

“He comprehended it in just one year?”

As soon as Gu Mo's words fell, he could feel a powerful aura suddenly roaring out from Lu Sheng's body.

Accompanied by a force of slaughter, it suddenly descended!

The power of the five elements between heaven and earth, at this moment, seemed to be dismembered by some kind of force, and turned into a single attribute. Finally, countless metallic forces turned into a towering giant blade, floating in this world.

“This move… let's call it Severing Realm Calamity Dust!”

A faint voice sounded from Lu Sheng's mouth.

A sharp force of slaughter suddenly descended and fell fiercely into the world in front of him.

Rumble!

A series of roars exploded instantly, but it could be seen that the earth in front of Lu Sheng, at this moment, seemed to have been suddenly cut off.

Revealing a square pit of ten kilometers by ten kilometers.

The surroundings of the deep pit were extremely flat, as if they had been cut open by an extremely sharp blade.

At this moment, Lu Sheng finally opened his eyes.

“Coming step by step from the five elements attributes, the first move I comprehended is created with the metallic substances of heaven and earth—Severing Realm Calamity Dust!”

“As for the name of this Stellar Law… let's call it Five Elements Return to Ruins Law!”

Lu Sheng smiled slightly, and at the same time, on the system panel, the data of Five Elements Star Suppressing Fist, Five Elements Body Tempering Technique,

and even Five Elements Chaos Technique were instantly erased.

Replaced by the Five Elements Return to Ruins Law!

【Name: Lu Sheng】

【Occupation: Martial Artist】

【Realm: Imperishable Realm (63/100)】

【Five Elements Return to Ruins Law: (1/100) LV1】

“Huh? The cultivation progress has actually increased by three points? But that's right, this place is Instructor Gu Mo's cultivation place, containing extremely rich vitality and heaven and earth spiritual energy, even if I just comprehend my Stellar Law, it is subtly improving my cultivation!”

Lu Sheng looked at the system panel, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

“Not bad!”

An old voice came leisurely from a distance.

It was Gu Mo who reappeared in front of Lu Sheng with a smile on his face.

“Instructor!”

Lu Sheng quickly got up and bowed to Gu Mo.

“Thank you for your guidance, Instructor!”

Gu Mo waved his hand: “All this is because of your amazing comprehension. I, this old man, just gave you a few pointers!”

Although Gu Mo was calm on the surface, his heart was already filled with ecstasy at this moment.

“Hahahaha, comprehending the second Stellar Law directly in less than thirty years after entering the door, and even reaching the late stage of the fifth rank, such talent cannot be found in the entire history of Star River University, and even slightly surpasses the White Emperor of the past.”

“This kid… is worthy of being the pride of my School of Life!”

Under the ecstasy in his heart, Gu Mo coughed lightly and said to Lu Sheng: “Are you aware that the school is about to enter a period of turmoil?”

Lu Sheng nodded. Liu Yao had already told him about these things, but Lu Sheng still had some doubts in his heart and couldn't help but ask.

"Mentor, why didn't you wait until Eldest Sister broke through to the seventh rank before leaving? If that were the case, our Life School wouldn't have so many problems?"

This was the most puzzling thing for Lu Sheng.

Logically speaking, breaking through a realm isn't like having one's cultivation regress. It's entirely possible to control and extend the breakthrough time, so why did Gu Mo have to leave after twenty years?

Gu Mo waved his hand, revealing a serious expression: "We martial artists pursue a broad mind. The path of martial arts is incomparably long. If I were to delay my pursuit of martial arts because of external matters, it would prevent me from ever achieving that broadness of mind."

"After all—"

As Gu Mo spoke, a profound look appeared on his face. He put his hands behind his back, his head tilted slightly upwards at a forty-five-degree angle.

What a picture of an otherworldly expert.

"My pursuit of martial arts has long surpassed my concern for the Life School. For the sake of the Life School, I have already delayed for hundreds of years. In these hundreds of years, I have given up a breakthrough opportunity for the Life School, which can be considered as taking care of the Life School's teachings for many years."

"If I don't break through this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to reach that realm in this lifetime."

Gu Mo's voice drifted over, causing Lu Sheng's heart to stir slightly.

However, while Gu Mo appeared to be an otherworldly expert on the surface, he was sneering inwardly.

"I still have twenty years before I leave. Yao'er will have broken through to the seventh rank long before then. Do they really think my personally taught eldest disciple is just for show?"

"If I don't put on an act, how can I lure them in? You need bait to fish, and ordinary bait won't catch those old fogeys!"

"Even if Yao'er doesn't break through, so what?"

"Do they really think the foundation left by the Life School's dozen or so previous mentors is a joke? Do they really think the Life School's Sky-Piercing Vine is useless?"

"I'll kill anyone who comes!"

Gu Mo was outwardly calm, but inwardly he was already sneering.

However, Lu Sheng was unaware of all this, completely deceived by Gu Mo's facade.

"Mentor's pursuit of martial arts is admirable!"

Lu Sheng said with emotion, bowing to Gu Mo once again.

"Cough cough cough!"

Gu Mo coughed awkwardly, feeling somewhat embarrassed. However, he still put on a serious look and said solemnly to Lu Sheng.

"Are you willing to expose yourself to the gaze of the Starlight University crowd?"

Gu Mo's words made Lu Sheng somewhat puzzled.

Expose myself to the gaze of the Starlight University crowd?

What's the meaning of this?

Seeing Lu Sheng's confusion, Gu Mo explained: "Transcendents of the fifth rank and above in Starlight University often have to cooperate with students from other schools in the university, or with people from the other two star system forces, to receive tasks, fight against alien races at the front lines, or complete some more difficult tasks."

"After all, fifth-rank transcendents are considered local emperors in the planets of the rear, and their combat power is even stronger than fourth-rank transcendents."

"And you, from the time you became a fifth-rank, haven't left the mountain and haven't completed a single cooperative task."

"I want you to step out of the Life School and comprehend some fifth-rank tasks. In this way, with your talent, you will soon be able to make a name for yourself in Starlight University. Secondly, the Stellar Method you are currently comprehending can definitely not be perfected by secluding yourself and working behind closed doors."

"I have also seen the Stellar Method you have just comprehended, which is full of killing power. Often, this kind of Stellar martial art needs to be tempered through battle to be quickly comprehended to perfection."

Hearing Gu Mo's words, Lu Sheng couldn't help but nod.

After all, he had already comprehended two Stellar Methods, and the next step was to gradually improve the realm of these two Stellar Methods through the system panel's ability.

Although his two Stellar Methods originated from Gu Mo and Liu Yao's Stellar Methods, their essence was somewhat different. They might be able to give him some reference, but they couldn't completely guide him.

Going out to train, tempering through battle, and improving the level of the Stellar Method, this is a good direction.

"In addition, if your reputation spreads, the eyes of other schools, and even some alien races in the universe, will also fall on you, and the attention on Liu Yao will be less, which will also give Liu Yao a better chance to break through to the seventh rank!"

Gu Mo looked at Lu Sheng and continued.

"Of course, I know that being watched by the outside world is not a good thing, but don't worry, as long as I am still in the Life School for a day, I can guarantee your safety!"

As Gu Mo spoke, a strong sense of heroism emerged from his body.

As a transcendent who is about to break through to the eighth rank, Gu Mo really has the confidence to say such a thing.

Gu Mo's words made Lu Sheng feel a little tempted.

Lu Sheng was very clear that if he wanted to improve his strength next, that is, the level of the two Stellar Methods, actual combat was the most important thing.

Only in this way could he rely on the system panel's ability to break through to the sixth rank within twenty years.

Only in this way could he better deal with the crisis during the turmoil after Gu Mo's departure.

Moreover, Gu Mo had promised to guarantee his safety, so Lu Sheng naturally didn't have too many concerns.

Within the 'Imprint the World', there were already three life-saving methods left by Liu Yao. Unless he encountered a seventh-rank powerhouse, basically all crises could be resolved.

Not to mention, there was also a life-saving method left by Gu Mo, which could also be resolved even if he encountered a seventh-rank powerhouse.

As for higher...

Lu Sheng didn't think that he, a small fifth-rank, could attract the attention of those eighth-rank powerhouses.

Unless he really didn't want to live anymore.

After a simple thought, Lu Sheng had no more worries in his heart, and nodded to Gu Mo's gaze.

Seeing Lu Sheng nod, Gu Mo's eyes became even brighter, and he was already laughing inwardly, almost unable to restrain himself from laughing out loud.

As if his goal had been achieved.

"Ahem, since you are willing, I have some task recommendations here."

As he said that, Gu Mo took out his wristwatch and sent a task recommendation to Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng opened his wristwatch and checked the task that Gu Mo had recommended.

[Intermediate Task: Annihilate the 859th Main Star of the Space Wraith Race]

[Task Introduction: The 859th Main Star is a small main star of the Space Wraith Race, with several fifth-rank Space Wraiths stationed there. It requires five fifth-rank transcendents to complete together.]

After reading the introduction of this task, Lu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Gu Mo.

Gu Mo also explained at this time: "Your current Five Elements Stellar Method has just comprehended the metal attribute moves, and annihilating the Space Wraith Race will help you comprehend this move."

Lu Sheng understood upon hearing this, and immediately applied for this task on his wristwatch.

Soon, the Starlight University Task Center sent Lu Sheng a gathering location. Because it was a Starlight University task, and there were students from other schools, they would generally gather at a unified gathering location before heading to the task location to complete the task.

After doing all this, Lu Sheng said to Gu Mo: "Then Mentor, I'll go complete the task?"

Gu Mo smiled and nodded slightly to Lu Sheng: "Go!"

Lu Sheng heard this and didn't continue to linger, turning around and leaving Gu Mo's cultivation place.

Watching Lu Sheng's figure disappear, Gu Mo couldn't hold back any longer, impatiently finding the Starlight University forum center on his wristwatch.

Then, he created a new account with practiced ease and posted a thread at the first moment.

《Inventory of the Hundred Most Outstanding Geniuses in the History of Starlight University!》

In this post, Gu Mo directly added Lu Sheng's name to it. After completing the editing,

Gu Mo clicked send.

After doing all this, Gu Mo then smiled slyly: "After so much preparation, I finally made this stinky brat believe it."

"Covering for Liu Yao is certainly part of the reason."

"The most important thing is that this kid has such good talent. If he doesn't show off in front of people, how can he bring glory to my Life School? And how can he bring glory to me?"
