Eternal Life: I Can Break Through The Limits Of All Methods

Chapter 99: Five Elements Art Transcendent, Foundation Building Tribulation

Chu Ming gained a new understanding of the Transcendent Realm's Disordered Sword Art.

Compared to before, his sword moves were now more complex and exquisite, and he had also added several new sword moves.

He quickly executed a move called "Instantaneous Phantom Slash," slashing rapidly in multiple directions with extreme speed, leaving afterimages.

He didn't use sword qi, but instead used the Void Shattering Slash.

Another tree in front of him was cut into dozens of pieces and collapsed with a loud crash.

He could strike from a distance, and he felt that the Void Shattering Slash was even more impressive than sword qi.

He wondered if he could use the Golden Light Slash to perform the Void Shattering Slash.

He had previously tried to incorporate the Disordered Sword Art into the Golden Light Slash.

Because he could freely set the path of the flying sword in the Golden Light Slash, he could integrate sword techniques into it and even unleash sword qi.

He tried condensing a flying sword, presetting its path, and then using the Transcendent Realm's move "Startling Sword."

The flying sword quickly passed through the forest, cutting through all the surrounding trees from a distance.

It was indeed effective!

He also tried using sword qi produced by the Golden Light Slash, and it had the same effect as the Void Shattering Slash.

The Void Shattering Slash was more powerful than a normal strike, and when added to the Golden Light Slash, his Golden Light Slash naturally became stronger.

...

In the following days, he continued to practice the Five Elements Art.

Five days later, at noon, Chu Ming was still practicing the Five Elements Art by the lake.

[Five Elements Art: Proficiency +1]

After increasing his proficiency, he glanced at the panel.

[Host: Chu Ming]

[Lifespan: 39/215]

[Realm: Ninth Layer of Qi Refining (100/100)]

[Spirit Root Aptitude: Gold 19.18, Wood 24, Water 20, Fire 18, Earth 22]

[Five Elements Art (Perfection: 10000/10000)]

...

It had already reached perfection. With the current proficiency of the Five Elements Art, he should be able to start Foundation Building.

However, if he continued to practice for a while, the Five Elements Art would probably break through to the Transcendent Realm. He wondered what new attributes it would have.

He didn't start trying Foundation Building but continued to improve his proficiency in the Five Elements Art.

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he felt that familiar sensation of touching the threshold of the Transcendent Realm.

[Five Elements Art: Proficiency +1]

[The Five Elements Art breaks through the Perfection stage and enters the Transcendent Realm]

[Unlocked attribute: Primordial Origin]

[Two different attributes of spiritual energy in your body can be Integrated Union, resulting in a mixed spiritual energy with both attributes]

[The mixed spiritual energy can be used to cast corresponding Integrated Union spells, and some of the spell attributes can be shared in Integrated Union spells]

[As proficiency continues to increase, the maximum number of types of spiritual energy that can be Integrated Union increases, and the number of shared attributes that can be used simultaneously in Integrated Union spells increases]

[In addition, as proficiency continues to increase, you will gain more new attributes of spiritual roots]

[Currently obtained: Thunder Spirit Root]

Ah? Chu Ming was somewhat surprised and looked at his panel again.

[Host: Chu Ming]

[Lifespan: 39/215]

[Realm: Ninth Layer of Qi Refining (21/100)]

[Spirit Root Aptitude: Gold 19.18, Wood 24, Water 20, Fire 18, Earth 22, Thunder 20]

...

He really obtained the Thunder Spirit Root. Could this be a Heavenly Spirit Root Mutation?

After comprehending the current realm of the Five Elements Art, the cultivation method for the Thunder Spirit Root was also added.

This technique could no longer be called the Five Elements Art; it should be called the Six Elements Art.

And after reaching the Transcendent Realm, this technique could also be considered a cultivation method for the Foundation Building Stage.

But if he used this technique for Foundation Building, there shouldn't be any problems.

As long as one can fully master it, the Foundation Building Stage technique can also be used for Foundation Building, but the difficulty is greater.

If one's cultivation is not proficient enough, Foundation Building may fail.

But for him, there is no such problem. He can perfectly display the level of his current cultivation.

It's just that because of the sudden increase in his spiritual root aptitude, he needs to cultivate a portion of Thunder Spiritual Qi in order to achieve Qi Refining Perfection.

This can be considered a good thing. The higher the spiritual root aptitude, the higher the limit of spiritual Qi storage in the body at the same cultivation level.

And now, after reaching Transcendent with the Five Elements Art, the cultivation speed in the Qi Refining stage is even faster.

In just a few days, he will be able to Foundation Building.

As for this Primordial Origin term, upon careful examination of its effects, it is indeed somewhat heaven-defying.

He tried integrating water and fire spiritual Qi, and then performed the Fire Breathing Art.

"Boom!"

A blue flame spewed out from his mouth, instantly lowering the temperature around him to below freezing point.

This is ice and fire, with the form of fire and the coldness of ice.

After designating a huge rock as the target of the term, the ice and fire instantly stuck to it, and then burned out into nothingness.

Indeed, it is possible to have the effects of two terms simultaneously.

He then tried using the Water Spray Technique, and a stream of reddish-yellow high-temperature fluid shot out from his mouth.

It flowed onto the ground like water, but carried high temperature, instantly igniting the weeds on the ground.

Similarly, the power to add two terms simultaneously was also present.

He then tried the Earth Throwing Art using the integrated power of fire and earth spiritual Qi, and a huge lava ball appeared in the sky.

He used the integrated power of metal and wood spiritual Qi to perform the Sprouting Art, and a thick, strong, and highly flexible iron vine extended from his hand. It could sense plants and attach the term "Scan Enemy".

Various other attributes can also be integrated in pairs, and the spells that can be performed are extremely diverse, but the effects are extremely powerful.

I really didn't expect that after breaking through Transcendent, the Five Elements Art would unlock such powerful terms.

And if he were to learn another lightning-based spell, he would be able to perform several different forms of spells.

Now, his spells are already powerful enough, the only thing lacking is his cultivation.

Without further ado, he decided to start Foundation Building immediately.

The Five Essence Pill can no longer replenish his Thunder Spiritual Qi, but the Mixed Origin Pill happens to be able to.

He refined a batch of new Mixed Origin Pills, and then refined them further, condensing twenty pills into one.

After swallowing a Mixed Origin Pill, he activated his technique and began absorbing Thunder Spiritual Qi.

...

In the following days, Chu Ming stayed alone in the space every day, suspending even dual cultivation, in order to break through Foundation Building as soon as possible.

He had already informed his junior sister in advance.

Xiao Yuying naturally understood the importance of the matter and compared to Chu Ming's Foundation Building, dual cultivation was naturally insignificant.

These days, she had been protecting Chu Ming, sleeping only for an hour each day, spending the rest of her time either working or meditating in the courtyard.

She was afraid that others would disturb Chu Ming's important Foundation Building.

Ten days later, in the afternoon, Chu Ming's Thunder Spiritual Qi was replenished, and his cultivation reached the ninth level of Qi Refining Perfection.

He sat by the lake, quietly operating the Five Elements Art, and the six-colored radiance within him rapidly circulated.

Suddenly, the central cluster of six-colored radiance began to liquefy, which was the precursor to Foundation Building.

As the technique continued to operate, the liquefied radiance increased.

At first, it was only the size of water droplets, but then gradually gathered into a small, colorful spiritual pool.

Afterwards, the water droplets continued to gather, and the spiritual pool gradually became larger.

However, at this moment, the sky in the space began to darken, and dark clouds started to gather.

Long Ling'er had been quietly watching Chu Ming's Foundation Building, but when she saw this anomaly, she suddenly became anxious.

"This... is this the heavenly tribulation phenomenon of Foundation Building?"

"Your method of Foundation Building is too perfect, it is already an extraordinary feat. I'm afraid the heavenly tribulation is about to descend."

"Although this place is within the Dragon Domain, heavenly tribulations can also transmigrate and descend here. The form may be different from ordinary heavenly tribulations, so you must be careful!"

Chu Ming was secretly shocked. Heavenly tribulation for Foundation Building? He had never heard of this before, and it seemed that no one in the sect had experienced such a phenomenon.

Could it be because he used the Transcendent technique for Foundation Building and perfectly displayed the proficiency of the technique, that this phenomenon occurred?

At this moment, he was fully focused on Foundation Building and didn't pay much attention to Long Ling'er's words.

Just then, a rift tore open in the sky.

A huge eye opened from the crack and looked at Chu Ming, filled with resentment.
