Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 208: The Five Elements Revolve, Falling Stars!

As a Foundation Building cultivator, even though Yi Hong is from a small sect, he is not weak.

Having comprehended a trace of Sword Intent, when he unsheathed his sword and struck, his entire person truly transformed into a streak of flowing light, displaying extraordinary speed.

Facing such swordsmanship, even a Foundation Building cultivator who has consumed pill elixirs would only feel a flash of light before their body is separated from their head.

And it is well known that in the world of martial arts, nothing is indestructible, only speed can break through.

There is also a saying - speed is power.

Therefore, Yi Hong's Long Rainbow Sword Technique is not only fast, but its attack power is also transcendent and extraordinary.

With this sword technique and Sword Intent, even though he is from a small sect, he is qualified to sit on the same level as Yan Chuyao.

However, he encountered Zhong Cang.

If Yi Hong can be considered a genius of a small sect, then Zhong Cang, who diligently cultivates, surpasses the level of a genius and is a rare monster that appears once in a thousand years.

Facing Yi Hong's attack, Zhong Cang did not make any other movements, he simply lifted his foot and lightly stepped.

"Buzz!"

With just this simple action, Yi Hong knelt.

- While moving swiftly, Yi Hong suddenly felt a tremendous force coming from above.

It was as if a towering mountain suddenly pressed down on him.

This was not an illusion, a magnificent stone tablet really descended from the sky, like a mountain, enveloping him from below.

The weight of the Mountain Suppressing Stone Tablet itself, combined with the pressure of the gravity imprint, made Yi Hong feel as if he was truly bearing the weight of a mountain.

He naturally couldn't withstand such terrifying gravity.

As a result, while still in the form of a streak of flowing light, he was "thumped" by the stone tablet and crushed to the ground.

"Poof..."

When he landed, he even spewed out a mouthful of blood, and his internal organs were shaking uncontrollably.

But soon, he couldn't care about these anymore.

Although his body fell from the sky and landed on the ground due to the stone tablet's impact, the majestic pressure still lingered on him, rendering him unable to move.

What frightened him even more was that as time passed, he could feel a special force suppressing the spiritual energy within his body, causing them to become like 'petrified', gradually unable to move.

This scene completely unleashed the fear in Yi Hong's heart.

He was well aware that if his spiritual energy was suppressed and his body was devoid of its protection, in an instant, his physical body would be crushed into a lump of flesh.

Not wanting to die, he immediately shouted for help.

"Save... me... cough..."

In fact, he didn't need to call for help.

When they saw Zhong Cang not only not surrendering when faced with their attacks, but also daring to fight back, these people became furious.

"Bold criminal!"

"To dare resist!"

"Seeking death!"

"To deal with such ungrateful demons, we don't need to talk about righteousness, let's attack together!"

"Take him down..."

Amidst the excitement of the crowd, the spiritual energy within everyone surged incessantly, and various dazzling spells were released from the hands of these cultivators.

"Boom!"

Numerous spells caused the Four Seas Tavern, protected by formations, to sway like a lighthouse in a storm.

At the same time, the sky became colorful due to the release of numerous spells.

Faced with this spell frenzy, Ling Que and Xiang Ling were both shocked and frightened.

Only Zhong Cang remained calm.

He did not unleash the Heaven and Earth Eight Trigrams Diagram.

"Woo..."

Accompanied by the roar of a turtle, a solid giant turtle appeared around Zhong Cang.

The appearance of the mountainous giant turtle created a golden shield around Zhong Cang.

On top of that shield, there were countless ancient and simple runes engraved.

At this moment, this giant turtle and the golden shield, like mountains and city walls, protected Zhong Cang, Xiang Ling, and Ling Que in the center.

"Whoosh..."

When the golden shield took shape, numerous spells and Law Weapons also bombarded in front of Zhong Cang.

"Boom..."

There were spells like the Great Sun Flame Burst, the Extreme Cold Ice Blade, and the Giant Spirit God's Palm...

There were Law Weapons like swords, seals, and even pagodas and golden bells...

The overwhelming spells and Law Weapon attacks bombarded the location where Zhong Cang was, one after another.

If this bombardment fell on a small city, it could destroy the entire city. If it fell on hills or river channels, it could flatten the hills and redirect the river.

Even with the protection of formations, the Four Seas Tavern couldn't withstand such an attack.

The intense bombardment caused a corner of the Four Seas Tavern to collapse, and due to the explosion, a mushroom cloud rose from Zhong Cang's location.

It wasn't until this moment that everyone stopped.

Then, looking at the smoke-filled and mixed spiritual energy below, everyone snorted coldly.

"Daring to speak arrogantly to Miss Yan, this is the consequence!"

"This guy is not only a scoundrel but also extremely foolish."

"Indeed, Miss Yan wanted to help him, but this bastard bit the hand that fed him and didn't recognize kindness!"

"This ignorant fool deserves to be killed. In my opinion, he should be tortured to death for his ingratitude."

Thinking that Zhong Cang was already dead, these people were all angrily cursing.

However, their reproachful words were only halfway spoken when some spiritually sensitive cultivators, or those who cultivated the Heavenly Eye, suddenly froze. Their accusatory words instinctively stopped.

This scene made some people realize that something was amiss, which also aroused their curiosity.

"Brother Ji, what's wrong? Why do you have such an expression?"

"Brother Sima, aren't you usually the most talkative? Why did you stop today?"

"Yes, Brother Sima, today is the time for you to show your power. Curse, curse as much as you want. No matter how you curse, no one will blame you today!"

Some people were asking in confusion, while others were mocking.

Slowly, as time passed and the smoke cleared, the situation at the center of the Four Seas Restaurant reappeared before everyone's eyes.

When they saw the situation there, all the cultivators present took a cold breath. At the same time, they understood why the cultivators with keen perception had stopped cursing in anger.

In the center of the restaurant, where everyone thought Zhong Cang had already died, he was standing proudly.

What shocked everyone even more was that not only was he alive, but even after being bombarded by countless spells, there wasn't a single trace of injury on Zhong Cang's body.

No, not only was there no injury, not even a speck of dust had touched him.

Even the golden shield, which was now a deep yellow color, was still shining brightly.

All these circumstances made the overwhelming spell attacks from earlier seem like illusions.

However, those attacks just now were personally launched by a group of Foundation Building cultivators. Therefore, they were well aware that the attacks were not illusions, but their full strength.

But even with their full strength attacks, they couldn't even break through the opponent's shield. Faced with this situation, how could they not be shocked and afraid?

Some cultivators even had their mental state shattered by the scene before them.

"It's impossible, this can't be true!"

"It's fake, it must be fake, don't try to deceive me!"

They were unwilling to believe what they saw. Some cultivators even thought that everything they saw was an illusion created by Zhong Cang, and the real Zhong Cang was already heavily injured and on the verge of death.

To confirm this, some cultivators released dazzling magical lights from their bodies, preparing to cast spells again.

But they didn't have a chance.

Zhong Cang was not the kind of person who would just take a beating without fighting back.

Just like before, Zhong Cang didn't use the Heaven and Earth Eight Trigrams Diagram to deal with these ants. There was simply no need.

"Buzz..."

When Zhong Cang launched his attack, the first thing that moved was his internal organs.

The reason why he allowed the group of Foundation Building cultivators to attack him just now was twofold. One was to test the strength of his defense after advancing to the mid-stage of Foundation Building, combining his True Intent of the Earth's Core, the Divine Lord of the Spleen, and the Supreme Grade Law Weapon Mountain Suppressing Stone Tablet.

And the result was very satisfying to Zhong Cang.

"Unless you sever the connection between me and the earth, I, standing on the earth, will never be defeated by cultivators of the same level!"

At the same time as the first objective was completed, Zhong Cang's second objective was also being carried out simultaneously.

"Buzz..."

Inside his body, the power of the Five Elements was like a wheel, constantly rotating.

And with each rotation, the power of Zhong Cang's mana inside his body doubled.

Fire generates earth, earth generates metal, metal generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire... After five rotations, the majestic fire energy filled Zhong Cang's entire body.

Because the fire energy was too dense and violent, Zhong Cang's body underwent some changes.

There were crimson flames burning on Zhong Cang's body, and his hair, like elemental transformation, turned crimson.

At this moment, Zhong Cang's body was like a super-sized cloud bomb. Once it exploded, it could turn an area of tens of miles into scorched earth.

And the five rotations, from fire back to fire, were not Zhong Cang's limit.

"Five Elements rotation, keep rotating for me!"

"Boom..."

With Zhong Cang's roar, a five-colored light wheel appeared behind him. At this moment, the light wheel slowly rotated, and the fire energy within Zhong Cang's body transformed and split towards the earth element according to the principle of the five elements generating each other.

This step was extremely difficult.

Not only difficult, but also very dangerous.

When the amount of earth energy in Zhong Cang's body doubled, he didn't feel anything.

Not even when it increased tenfold.

When it reached twenty times, Zhong Cang felt some pressure.

At thirty-two times, the violent power surged within Zhong Cang's body, and there was a faint uncontrollable force leaking out.

The flames burning around Zhong Cang's body and the phenomenon of his hair turning red were caused by this.

And now, Zhong Cang was undergoing the sixth rotation. According to the doubling characteristic of the generation cycle, the energy within Zhong Cang's body would be the original amount multiplied by sixty-four.

This kind of split growth may seem exaggerated, but it is actually quite normal.

Nuclear fission, for example, can release energy equivalent to 2.8 tons of standard coal burned from just one gram of uranium.

At this moment, Zhong Cang had only split to sixty-four times, still far from nuclear fission.

However, fission had both benefits and burdens.

The energy after elemental fission was extremely violent and couldn't be absorbed or stored; it could only be released in a short period of time.

Moreover, this energy could only undergo fission within Zhong Cang's body.

And the pressure on Zhong Cang from the sixty-four times energy was extremely severe.

At this moment, due to an excessive amount of earth energy, Zhong Cang's body and internal organs gradually began to crack. What was even more terrifying was that the cracked parts didn't bleed, but revealed the color of stone and soil... his body showed signs of petrification due to the invasion of elements.

Moreover, the immense earth energy made Zhong Cang feel as if he was carrying a mountain on his back.

"Boom!"

Even though he stood still, the immense earth energy still caused the ground beneath Zhong Cang's feet to crack and sink.

Fortunately, compared to the violent flames, it was difficult to control.

Although earth energy was heavy and had the danger of petrification, it was known for its stability and solidity. It would also help stabilize Zhong Cang's body, realm, and dantian.

This support, like a pillar, prevented Zhong Cang's body from collapsing immediately.

"Indeed, my speculation was correct... the Five Spirits carrying the five Supreme Grade Law Weapons have returned, and my body has received another wave of strengthening. Now, with the five elements rotating five times, I can use them without hindrance."

"And, with the earth, wood, and water... these three types of energy, because of their gentle nature and lack of sharpness, if I forcefully drive them, I can rotate them six times!"

Relying on the stability provided by the earth energy for his body, Zhong Cang gained a moment of respite.

Seeing this, Zhong Cang didn't hesitate and forcefully infused the immense earth elemental power within his body into the Supreme Grade Law Weapon, the Mountain Suppressing Stone Tablet.

This triggered a violent reaction.

A celestial star fell from the sky.

"Boom!"

...
