Chapter 966: Chapter 966: All-Encompassing
Inside the grand hall, on each of the nine stone tablets, a na is inscribed.
Clearly, those who left their nas here were once undoubtedly Great Cultivators.
This scene is not unfamiliar to Chen Nan, for he had experienced it before in the Qingshan Sect.
This is evidently the ancient legacy left here by Great Cultivators!
As they gazed upon the nine stone tablets, the cultivators present displayed expressions of excitent.
If one could acquire the legacy of any Great Cultivator, the ntal thods and magic techniques would be beyond asure, and there might even be secret treasures, elixir pills, or cultivation experiences left behind.
Just like the Shariputra that Chen Nan obtained, which contained Buddhist techniques ranging from the Foundation Establishnt Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage, with such a legacy, the worry about cultivation techniques is entirely unnecessary.
Though every cultivator present wished to obtain the legacy, there were only nine stone tablets, and they feared being interrupted while acquiring the legacy.
Thus, none dared to act first, instead staying alert to their surroundings.
At this mont, Wang Teng from the Wang Family stepped forward and smiled slightly at everyone.
"I know everyone here wants to acquire the legacy but fears being ambushed. Why don’t we make an agreent that fighting is not allowed while acquiring the legacy?"
"Our Wang Family is willing to oversee, and if anyone violates the agreent, we absolutely won’t let them off!"
With the Wang Family providing assurance, the cultivators’ minds were much more at ease, as the influence of a top family was indeed substantial.
"Since Young Master Wang has said this, we should naturally adhere to it. Legacy is obtained by those destined for it; whether one can acquire it depends on individual ability."
So agreed, but others raised new questions.
"Young Master Wang, legacy belongs to those destined for it, but how should the pottery jar above be divided?"
Everyone instinctively looked towards the pottery jar.
Wang Teng smiled slightly: "Naturally, it should be fairly contested after all the legacies have been acquired, each relying on their own skill!"
"Alright, let’s do it this way!"
This thod was relatively fair, as anyone might obtain the pottery jar, thus there was no opposition.
They all began seeking the legacy of interest, or simply tried each stone tablet, hoping to acquire the legacy within the tablets.
Chen Nan also stepped forward but did not rush to choose; instead, he first examined the nas on the tablets.
These nas were unfamiliar to him, but so people had heard of them and spoke of the deeds of the cultivators on the tablets, all being prominent figures in the Jiuzhou World.
Only one stone tablet was an exception; the na on it was completely unheard of, and no deeds had been passed down.
When Chen Nan saw the na on that tablet, he was montarily stunned.
For the na on the tablet was unknown to others, but he knew it.
Dao Yan!
The first ti he encountered this na was in the Abyss Netherworld, seen in the Shariputra.
It was rely a journal, recording so fantastical ideas of Dao Yan, considered astonishingly unconventional.
What theories of Five Elents Spirit Root and Five Elents Golden Core, now would surely be sternly criticized as heretical.
But when Chen Nan saw Dao Yan’s na here, he realized Dao Yan’s theories had co true!
Those astonishingly unconventional ideas could indeed co to fruition!
Others also wanted to obtain Dao Yan’s legacy, but quickly cursed and opened their eyes.
"What nonsense about Five Elents Golden Core? It’s nothing but a fallacy! Misleading the younger generation!"
"Five Elents Golden Core? How could anyone successfully cultivate it? It’s entirely unrealistic imagination!"
"Even if the Five Elents Spirit Root exists, wouldn’t cultivating take five tis the effort and ti? It’s a complete waste of ti; only fools would try!"
They all left, showing contempt for the theory of Five Elents Spirit Root.
Only Chen Nan eagerly placed his hand on the tablet and slowly closed his eyes.
Soon, he found himself in a consciousness space, where a scholar-like, very thin man appeared before him, with a gaze full of misunderstood determination.
"I have explored for a lifeti and finally completed the Five Elents theory, perfected the Devouring Spirit Technique, yet the world does not understand, condemning
as heretical."
"I leave my legacy only to find like-minded individuals. If you do not agree with my ideals, please quickly leave."
The scholar waved his sleeve, and before Chen Nan, densely packed characters appeared, all representing Dao Yan’s understanding of the Five Elents.
The more Chen Nan read, the more astonished he beca, feeling that the Five Elents theory truly resonated with the grand path of heaven and earth.
Dao Yan quietly observed Chen Nan as he showed expressions of excitent and realization, his mouth gently lifted in a slight smile.
According to Dao Yan’s thoughts, Five Elents Spirit Root is complete, rather than being considered incomplete, though the cultivation speed is fast, it is difficult to reach the grand path.
However, most cultivators’ Spirit Roots are incomplete, hence he proposed an alternative concept: absorbing Five Elents Spiritual Objects to substitute the Spirit Root, thus the Devouring Spirit Technique ca into being.
After a long ti, Chen Nan finally finished reading all the theories, feeling that the path ahead was illuminated.
"Senior, I am very interested in the Five Elents theory and also have so other ideas."
"Perhaps not only can the Five Elents Spirit Root be completed, but other attribute spiritual objects can also be absorbed, such as thunder and wind, encompassing all things."
"I wish to call it ’All Things Spiritual Root’."
This idea was a flash of inspiration based on his own situation.
According to Dao Yan’s ideas, one could absorb other attribute spiritual objects to complete the Spirit Root, but he lacked spiritual objects matching the missing Spirit Root attributes.
However, he did possess other attribute spiritual objects, such as the Thunder Seed, Wind Pearl, and even the Demon Suppressing Sword could be considered a Yin attribute spiritual object.
Thus, he wondered if it was possible to absorb other attributes on the basis of the Five Elents Spirit Root to beco the more complete All Things Spiritual Root.
Upon hearing Chen Nan’s idea, Dao Yan’s eyes brightened, and he stepped forward, taking Chen Nan’s hand.
"A like-minded individual, truly a like-minded individual!"
"If it is as you say, then the All Things Spiritual Root will encompass all, not confined to the Five Elents, and can even be continually perfected as cultivation progresses..."
Dao Yan’s expression was extrely enthusiastic, imrsed in his own imagination, hardly caring whether Chen Nan responded.
Thus, the two beca absorbed in their discussion.
With Dao Yan’s assistance, Chen Nan’s idea of the All Things Spiritual Root beca increasingly refined.
The two, like old friends and kindred spirits who regretted eting too late, grew more excited as they talked, as if a path straight to heaven lay before them.
They conversed for a long, long ti.
Finally, Dao Yan’s remaining soul beca illusory, seemingly about to dissipate soon.
"Young friend, my ti has co, but your presence has given
hope."
"I have not reached the end of this path, and I cannot provide you much assistance, but I sincerely wish you prosperity in the immortal path."
His remaining soul slowly floated up, gradually disappearing, leaving only his voice echoing.
"I am not alone in my path, I am not alone in my path!"
