Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

After a moment of surprise, Chen Tian looked at the crowd again and noticed that more and more people were taking out items that could be described as 'bizarre'.

These items were definitely not powerful magical treasures, but rather common, everyday objects.

Chen Tian was really confused about what they were trying to do.

'Capture the intent of the Heavenly Dao? With these things?'

Chen Tian looked deeply shocked, his face filled with astonishment.

"That's not right! This is strange!"

Suddenly, at this moment, Chen Tian seemed to discover something, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes as he looked around again.

'The fishing net is made of wood, containing wood; the pottery jar is made of clay, containing earth; the round spoon is made of iron, containing metal; and there are also water and fire… This… This isn't the Five Elements!'

After looking around at the things everyone had taken out, Chen Tian seemed to discover some profound secret and immediately gasped in his heart.

Indeed, although these things were all common and not particularly special, they contained the Five Elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

"Could it be that capturing the intent of the Heavenly Dao requires relying on these Five Elements?"

After wondering in his heart, Chen Tian turned to Cao Qinghua and asked, "Brother Cao, can you tell me, what is the connection between the intent of the Heavenly Dao and the Five Elements?"

"Eh, Brother Yang, could it be that you have already comprehended the profundity of it so quickly?"

Hearing Chen Tian's question, Cao Qinghua was immediately surprised.

You should know that he had deliberately held back just now and hadn't told Chen Tian everything, wanting to take the opportunity to show off in front of him.

After all, after what happened just now, Cao Qinghua desperately realized that although they were both early-stage Sea Condensation Realm cultivators, Chen Tian was far above him in both strength and intelligence, which made him feel a sense of inferiority.

Therefore, after taking out the wooden net, Cao Qinghua didn't tell Chen Tian the reason, wanting to dampen Chen Tian's spirit and regain some face as the chief disciple of the Sea Gazing Sect.

But what he never expected was that in such a short period of time, Chen Tian, who had never been here before, had actually seen through the connection between the Five Elements and the intent of the Heavenly Dao. This not only didn't allow Cao Qinghua to regain face, but instead deepened the sense of inferiority in his heart.

"Actually, I don't know if my guess is correct, I just have this idea. In the end, I still have to ask Brother Cao to explain it to me, after all, in terms of knowledge and experience, I am far inferior to Brother Cao."

Chen Tian was a meticulous person, and upon seeing Cao Qinghua's disappointed appearance, he immediately understood what he was thinking, so he hurriedly praised him.

Cao Qinghua wasn't an idiot either, knowing that Chen Tian was trying to help him regain some face. After a wry smile, he slowly said, "Actually, Brother Yang, your guess is correct. If you want to capture the intent of the Heavenly Dao that will float out later, you can't rely on brute force, but you have to use skill. The intent of the Heavenly Dao contained in this hand seal, in terms of attributes, can be divided into five categories: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which correspond to the Five Elements in our cultivation world. Therefore, if you want to capture them, you must use the Five Elements."

"I see."

After hearing Cao Qinghua's words, Chen Tian suddenly understood. As he had guessed, only the Five Elements could be used to capture the intent of the Heavenly Dao.

"By the way, Brother Yang, seeing that you haven't prepared anything, why don't you act with us later? If we are lucky enough to capture some intent of the Heavenly Dao this time, we will share a portion with you." At this time, Cao Qinghua seemed to think of something and suddenly made this suggestion to Chen Tian.

Chen Tian's heart stirred upon hearing this. Indeed, as Cao Qinghua said, he hadn't prepared anything for this trip. And the Sea Gazing Sect, as a reclusive and super-powerful sect, could almost enter here every year to capture the intent of the Heavenly Dao, so their experience must be very rich. If he could join them, it would naturally be a great thing for Chen Tian.

Thinking of this, Chen Tian's face lit up, and just as he was about to agree, he suddenly seemed to discover something. His expression paused, and he waved his hand, saying, "Forget it, I think it's better for me to act alone, I won't disturb you."

Chen Tian noticed that behind Cao Qinghua, the other nine Sea Gazing Sect disciples were now showing gloomy expressions.

This was no wonder, after all, originally only the ten of them would share the spoils, but once Chen Tian joined, they would have to share one less portion, which would be unbearable for anyone. Besides, their strength was low, and they couldn't be compared with Chen Tian and Cao Qinghua. This time, they had come in because they were very interested in the intent of the Heavenly Dao, and they would never allow outsiders to interfere.

Although with Cao Qinghua as a support, Chen Tian believed that these people would definitely not dare to say a word, but in their hearts, they must be very annoyed at this time.

Chen Tian was a sensible person, and seeing such an atmosphere, he would naturally not rashly join.

"Alas, I originally wanted to take this opportunity to repay Brother Yang for his kindness just now, but since you have said so, then I have no choice but to stop forcing you." Cao Qinghua sighed slightly after hearing Chen Tian's refusal.

"I have always been used to being alone, and I am more comfortable alone. Then I will find another place and not disturb you fellow Daoists."

Chen Tian cupped his fists at Cao Qinghua and the others, and then flew to the side.

Seeing Chen Tian take the initiative to withdraw, those Sea Gazing Sect disciples were immediately happy again and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

… … … … … … …

Chen Tian looked thoughtful and quickly flew to a place about fifty feet away from Cao Qinghua and the others.

This is the cultivation world, this is the world where the strong are respected.

It's just that Chen Tian didn't have time to pay attention to these things at this time. He turned his hand over, and immediately took out two kitchen knives from his storage ring.

"Could it be that I really have to use this thing to capture the intent of the Heavenly Dao?"

Looking at the two kitchen knives in his hand, Chen Tian couldn't help but ponder.
