546: 304 City God_3 546: 304 City God_3 They ascended the steps, and the closer they got to the mountaintop, the more white cranes they encountered.
The white cranes seed not to be afraid of humans; they didn’t scatter in a panic upon seeing people, but instead preened their feathers in a contented manner.
Unwittingly, they had arrived just below the summit.
The end of the mountain path unexpectedly opened up into a spacious cave dwelling.
Outside the cave dwelling was a garden, filled with the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
Amidst the misty ascent, white cranes strolled leisurely, making everything appear as if it were a heavenly abode.
At that mont, an old farr was squatting in the garden, weeding.
The old farr had an unremarkable appearance, with white hair and beard, dressed simply in coarse hemp clothes, carrying no aura of power about him.
“He is at the Nine Ox Realm!”
Jun Yao’s eyes sharpened as she discerned the old farr’s cultivation level.
Fang Zhixing nodded and said in a low voice, “He is Yan Jingfeng’s master and has been living in seclusion here for many years.”
He stepped forward slowly, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, “Junior Zhang Changji pays his respects to Elder Li.”
The old farr looked up, sizing him up before nodding with a smile.
“Yan Jingfeng has written to about you,” he said.
Fang Zhixing imdiately said, “Please, Elder Li, I would be forever grateful if you could help .”
As he spoke, he took out a gift.
“Here is a shoot of Yingxiang Grass, a small token of my regard.”
The old farr waved his hand and said, “That won’t be necessary.
I’m old now and have long lost the heart for cultivation.
I have no use for such valuable things.”
He repeatedly declined.
Seeing this, Fang Zhixing had no choice but to take back the gift.
The old farr then took out a letter from his bosom and said carefully, “This is an introduction letter I wrote for you.
Take it, along with my identity token, to the Five Elents Sect, and you will be registered as an outer disciple of the Five Elents Sect.
Of course, if you can pass the Five Elents Sect’s assessnt, you can be promoted to an official mber of the sect.”
Having heard about this from Yan Jingfeng, Fang Zhixing couldn’t help but ask, “What will the Five Elents Sect assess on?”
The old farr replied, “It’s very simple, yet terrifying!
The Yang Divine experts of the Five Elents Sect will enter your dreams, read your mories, and scrutinize everything about your past!”
Fang Zhixing was speechless for a mont.
The Yang Divine entering dreams was indeed magical but also extrely disturbing.
The old farr added, “Oh right, I’ve created a new identity for you in the letter.
Your na will be An Baopu, hailing from An Family Village beneath He Ming Mountain.
The village has been destroyed by mudslides, all the villagers died, and you are the sole survivor.
Afterwards, I took you in and you beca my closed-door disciple.”
Fang Zhixing nodded but hesitated, “But I don’t know the martial arts of the Five Elents Sect.
Won’t I give myself away?”
The old farr replied, “That won’t be difficult.
I’ll teach you the ‘Five Elents Mysterious Skill.’ With your current level of cultivation, a little practice will be enough to fool anyone below the Hundred Cows Realm.”
With that, the old farr handed a Technique Secret Manual to Fang Zhixing and explained in detail the thods of performing and cultivating the skill.
Fang Zhixing listened with great joy and utmost concentration.
This Five Elents Mysterious Skill was a standard cultivation technique of Taoism.
First, practice the basics.
Afterwards, it divides into nine layers, corresponding to four layers of the Great Python Realm and five layers of the Five Beasts Realm.
Beyond that, it further divides into four layers of the Nine Ox Realm.
Once cultivated to the extre, Five Elents Divine Qi erges within the body.
With the Five Elents rotating and supporting each other, endlessly generating life, it’s unfathomable like the work of spirits and has the might of heaven and earth.
As for the cultivation techniques of the Hundred Cows Realm level, naturally, the old farr did not have access to them.
[Five Elents Mysterious Skill · Full Level Conditions:
1.
Read the full text of the technique manual once (completed)]
[Conditions for full level have been achieved.
Would you like to upgrade?]
Fang Zhixing smiled lightly.
With his physical condition, cultivating the Five Elents Mysterious Skill was as easy as pie.
“Upgrade!”
In the blink of an eye, Fang Zhixing’s gaze blurred slightly before quickly regaining its clarity.
With just a slight tremor in his body, he had already mastered all the mysteries of the Five Elents Divine Qi.
As he breathed in and out, five-colored light imdiately enveloped his body, flowing endlessly.
“This, this is the Five Elents Divine Qi!!”
The old farr was initially taken aback and then his eyes widened in amazent.
He almost dropped his jaw and exclaid in extre astonishnt, “You, you’ve mastered it already?!”
Fang Zhixing smiled and asked, “Senior, what do you think of my practice?”
The old farr was inwardly shocked and answered, “Hmm, your Five Elents Divine Qi is distinctly separate yet capable of rging into one, separating and uniting at will.
It’s perfect.”
The more the old farr observed, the greater his inner awe, marvelling at the excellence.
He clicked his tongue and said, “Even by the highest standards of the Five Elents Sect, the Five Elents Divine Qi you’ve trained is flawless, a rarity seen once in a hundred years.”
Then he demonstrated his own Five Elents Divine Qi.
Once released, the five colors flickered uncertainly.
Yellow was the strongest, black the weakest, resulting in an imbalanced and competing state.
The comparison between the two made the disparity clear.
Fang Zhixing’s Five Elents Divine Qi was perfect and without flaw.
The old farr’s Five Elents Divine Qi, on the other hand, was full of weaknesses and very abnormal as if it could collapse at any mont.
After a while…
The two of them, along with the dog, walked down He Ming Mountain.
“Not bad, this trip has been exceptionally smooth…”
Fang Zhixing sighed softly.
Thinking thus, he raised his left hand and channeled power into the ring.
“Fan brother, it’s .”
Fang Zhixing called out.
Before long, Fan Qiulai responded with a laugh, “Younger brother, have you arrived at He Ming Mountain?”
Fang Zhixing replied, “Yes, now I have to make a trip to the Five Elents Sect next.”
Fan Qiulai answered, “Good, I’ve already made it to the capital of Dai State, ‘Chiming City.’ Next, I will purchase a shop, recruit so errand runners, and you can take over directly when you return.”
Fang Zhixing’s spirits lifted, and he nodded.
“Pass on a ssage to Yan Jingfeng for .
Tell him his master is doing fine and not to worry.”
“Got it, I’ve noted it down!”
The two ended their communication.
Fang Zhixing then rode Xigou, traveling in the southeast direction, exiting White Crane County and reaching Five Elents County.
Both Five Elents Mountain and the capital were within Five Elents County!
Unwittingly, Fang Zhixing had co to the heartland of Dai State…
