He extended slightly trembling fingers. Mu Zilong’s voice was tight and husky, “This… the Flower of Five Elements Great Reincarnation combined with the Fusion of Light and Darkness?”
He Yiming nodded earnestly, looking at Mu Zilong with eager anticipation.
Although he knew his own power surpassed Mu Zilong’s estimations, the man was, after all, an established Divine Path expert with nearly a thousand years of experience. Some entirely feasible advice from him should be no problem at all.
After a long pause, Mu Zilong let out a long sigh, a profound, indescribable sense of emotion leaking from the sound.
He looked seriously at He Yiming and managed a wry smile, “Brother He, I have truly underestimated you.” He glanced at the puppet beside He Yiming. “Let alone having this Divine Path puppet assisting you, even if you were alone, you could absolutely slay that golden monster with ease.”
From the moment he learned He Yiming was not yet thirty, his attitude had shifted slightly, placing He Yiming on equal footing in their discussions. But only now did he fully realize that He Yiming not only possessed an infinitely bright future, but his current strength was likely beyond what Mu Zilong himself could match.
The Flower of Five Elements Great Reincarnation combined with the Fusion of Light and Darkness!
What astonishing powers these were; possessing merely one of them was enough to claim invincibility among peers. If both manifested in one person…
Mu Zilong suddenly had the distinct feeling that He Yiming had a very real chance of becoming the legendary third absolute powerhouse to reach the True God Realm.
He Yiming chuckled softly. “Brother Mou flatters me.” With a flick of his wrist, the two different light wheels hovering in mid-air vanished without a trace. However, he now held a Divine Weapon in his hand: his natal Divine Weapon, the Five Elements Ring. Presenting this weapon was naturally an invitation for a serious exchange of pointers.
“Elder Brother, this is my natal Divine Weapon. What do you think of it?”
The moment the two light wheels appeared, the space around them was permeated with an extreme, powerful pressure. This intensity was so fierce that even Mu Zilong found it difficult to endure. This was how he could confirm the origin of the two light wheels.
As He Yiming retracted his Divine Power, all the pressure instantly dissipated, ceasing to exist. As for the pressure emanating from the Five Elements Ring, that was practically nothing to him.
Mu Zilong sighed inwardly. He Yiming’s command over these powers was so practiced and profound; it was truly hard to imagine. Was he really a newly ascended Divine Path expert?
Yet, he remained unaware that He Yiming had successfully absorbed all the Divine Path powers into his Chaotic Dantian long before even advancing to the Divine Path.
Thus, after reaching the Divine Path, he encountered no issues with control. But this was something Mu Zilong could never conceive of. After all, before He Yiming, no one else in this world possessed something as monstrous as the Chaotic Dantian.
Staring at the Five Elements Ring, Mu Zilong’s brows furrowed tightly. His lips moved slightly, as if muttering something under his breath.
The cold wind continually swept by, making his long robe billow loudly. But he seemed entirely oblivious. In that moment, all his focus had been thrown into some profound contemplation.
The shock He Yiming delivered was too immense. More importantly, He Yiming’s attitude was exemplary; his movements and expressions showed that this was a request for guidance born from absolute sincerity.
Toward such a young, newly ascended Divine Path expert who possessed mastery over both Eastern and Western supreme arts, Mu Zilong was exceptionally optimistic. Beyond a hint of jealousy, there was also a faint stirring of competitive spirit. In martial cultivation, I cannot surpass you, but in the understanding and application of Spatial Arts, I am qualified to instruct you.
This was his only thought at that moment. The fact that He Yiming was essentially a novice who had just broken through to the Divine Path had long been tossed to the farthest reaches of his mind.
After a significant wait, Mu Zilong’s eyes faintly brightened. He said, slightly excitedly, “Brother He, if my guess is correct, within your Five Elements Ring, there must reside a unique space.”
He Yiming nodded slightly. “Correct. Within lies a Five Elements World.” Though he did not conceal the truth, he certainly did not reveal the existence of the Nine Dragon Furnace.
Mu Zilong’s eyes shone brighter and brighter. “The Eastern Five Elements World and the Western Fusion of Light and Darkness have always been the most formidable powers in this world. The same is true for spatial power. While constructing a space using either power yields excellent results, truly merging the two into one would achieve unparalleled might in the universe.”
He Yiming paused, an odd expression flickering across his face.
He certainly understood the formidable nature of both techniques, and the idea of condensing them into one had long occurred to him. But it was profoundly unfortunate that even his Chaotic Dantian could not fuse these two forces.
They formed two completely distinct reincarnation systems within his Dantian, essentially existing without interfering with one another. If He Yiming forcefully used both powers simultaneously, the only result would be as just witnessed: utilizing one reincarnation technique with each hand, while the notion of unifying the two cycles was utterly impossible.
Mu Zilong chuckled. “Brother He, I know that both these powers were top-tier in their time, and the difficulty of bringing them together is immense. But precisely because of this, the power they would possess upon successful fusion should be even more incredible.” He licked his lips, which were slightly dry. “Perhaps when these two merge as one, that will be the moment you successfully advance to the True God Realm.”
He Yiming’s heart stirred greatly. Although he knew the difficulty of merging these two supreme arts would not be small, he was equally certain that if he succeeded, the reward would be extraordinary.
As for advancing to the True God Realm, that felt too distant.
Considering that even these veteran experts had been fighting here for over five hundred years without a single one breaking through to the True God Realm, one could gauge how far beyond ordinary comprehension that stage truly was.
Mu Zilong waved his hand. “Brother He, let’s set that matter aside for now. Since you possess the Five Elements Ring, you are guaranteed a usable space and have no need for spatial artifacts.” He paused, then smiled, “Elder Brother has some small insights into the application of Spatial Arts; I wonder if Brother He would care to listen.”
He Yiming was instantly overjoyed. He never would have expected that today he had truly encountered a benefactor.
He bowed deeply to Mu Zilong and said sincerely, “Please guide me, Brother Mou. Your junior listens with respect.”
Mu Zilong nodded with satisfaction. He spoke softly, “Watch closely.”
A strange wave of power immediately began to ripple around him. This fluctuation was his inherent Earth element Divine Power, but the frequency of the ripple was quite bizarre, and in the next moment, it ignited the might of Heaven and Earth.
He Yiming’s expression shifted slightly, his mind filled with doubt.
The might of Heaven and Earth evoked by Mu Zilong was not expanding outward, but surging inward.
At this moment, He Yiming could not possibly fathom his intent. Was he planning to resist the explosive force of the Heavenly Might with his physical body?
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, He Yiming abruptly perceived that the aura surrounding Mu Zilong had changed.
It was a remarkably strange transformation. Mu Zilong’s physical form seemed to have become an unfathomable black hole. No matter how vast the might of the surging Heavenly Might, it seemed incapable of filling this void.
He Yiming’s brow twitched slightly, and he was filled with admiration.
The majesty of the Divine Path is indeed profound and unpredictable. He knew this must be some miraculous technique employed by Mu Zilong to achieve such an effect. Otherwise, even possessing a Divine Path body to directly confront the Heavenly Might would be an undeniably unwise endeavor.
The central black hole began to spin rapidly, its speed seemingly having peaked at its maximum the moment it started.
Subsequently, the vast majority of the Heavenly Might scattered wildly, simply vanishing on the spot.
He Yiming stared at the scene before him, dumbfounded, his ears twitching slightly as he listened to every sound nearby.
He had a feeling that Mu Zilong had used some special method for spatial teleportation, a method somewhat similar to when the Divine Dragon sent the few of them to different locations.
However, Mu Zilong certainly would not teleport to such a distant place; he would surely return soon.
Indeed, a moment later, a familiar, surging aura came from afar.
Accompanied by a hearty, clear laugh, Mu Zilong flew back from a distance.
A strange light flickered in He Yiming’s eyes. He spoke with genuine admiration, “Brother Mou’s divine skill, this junior is truly impressed.”
Mu Zilong waved his hand. “Brother He, this spatial technique is actually not complicated. Since you possess the Flower of Five Elements Great Reincarnation, you can definitely cultivate it. As for how much power you can wield, or how far you can transmit, that depends on your own talent and luck.” He paused. “This particular spatial technique is not something every Divine Path expert possesses. Earth element Divine Power is essential, and having Wind element Divine Power would be even better.”
He Yiming rejoiced inwardly, but outwardly remained impassive. He listened intently, and under Mu Zilong’s candid explanation, he felt a stirring of eagerness.
A full hour later, Mu Zilong finally stopped. His expression was solemn. “What needs to be said, I have said. The greatest difficulty in using this teleportation technique is the instantaneous conversion of Divine Power attributes. You should practice this often. Once you can grasp the frequency and characteristics of instant Divine Power conversion, you will basically succeed.”
He Yiming nodded heavily. He closed his eyes, seemingly digesting everything Mu Zilong had explained.
Mu Zilong nodded with satisfaction. Although this young man possessed incredible innate talent, he possessed sufficient piety in his martial cultivation. His future achievements would undoubtedly be limitless.
