Chapter 19: The Five Elements Give Birth to Each Other (3)

  Arriving at the door, he turned his head to glance at the Five Elements Technique lying quietly on the table and softly said: "Thank you." As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed open the door and strode out.

  Upon arriving at the second floor staircase, I found that the old man from before was staring blankly at me, his eyes filled with grievance and curiosity.

  The elder had no choice but to compromise, just because of Yan Long's orders, and in these five days, he had offended at least dozens of outer sect disciples who came with their waist cards to ask for the secret manual. Although their cultivation and seniority were not higher than his, and no one dared to quarrel with him. But after all, there was a bit of suspicion of bullying! Moreover, Yan Long's instructions could not be revealed casually. Those outer sect disciples looked at him with obvious strangeness when they saw his gaze, and according to rumors, those outer sect disciples seemed to be spreading the story that he had already become old and unreasonable.

  For these things, one can only bear them oneself. So when Chang Sheng appeared, the old man's eyes no longer had a hint of sharpness, only infinite grievance and curiosity remained.

  Because Changsheng had been inside for five days without eating or drinking. Only cultivators above the Nourishing Soul stage can abstain from food and drink. For a month, they don't eat or drink, but instead absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to satisfy their hunger. Cultivators below the Nourishing Soul stage need to eat every day; otherwise, when they get hungry, they can't focus on their cultivation. What a loss!

  If it's not during cultivation, just holding on for five days is no problem at all for someone like Changsheng who has established his foundation. Even ordinary people can go without food or water for five days, let alone a cultivator?

  Putting that aside, the old man was even more curious about what Changsheng had done in those five days. However, he couldn't ask directly, after all, according to their generational relationship, he was Changsheng's master, and in the cultivation world, asking someone about their cultivation was considered taboo. So the old man could only suppress his curiosity and gaze at Changsheng with curious eyes, hoping that Changsheng would say something.

  The old man also wanted to use his spiritual sense to observe, but found that his spiritual sense couldn't get close to Changsheng's body. The old man thought it was Yan Long Shifu helping Changsheng block him and not letting him take a look. The old man didn't dare to be reckless again, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

  This time, the old man was wrong. The spiritual consciousness couldn't get close to Changsheng's body, and the reason was that the six kinds of true energy in Changsheng's body were at work. It should be known that Changsheng had initially realized the theory of five elements generating each other, and even formed a perfect system with his six kinds of true energy, which assisted and coexisted with each other, slowly rotating around the true energy of the element.

  "The power of the five elements, the foundation of heaven and earth. The five elements circulate, giving birth to life without cease!" This sentence is most apt in explaining that within Chang Sheng's body, the foundation of heaven and earth has already been established, it can also be understood as, at present, a small heaven and earth has taken shape in Chang Sheng's dantian qihai, although it is still imperfect, not yet developed, but it is not something an ordinary person can explore with their spiritual awareness.
