Chapter 160 Water Element Skill Inheritance

Once you understand your own path and determine the way forward, you must begin to walk.

The five elements spiritual roots, the most suitable for you is the five elements Taoism. Based on the five elements secret book, draw on other methods to create the most suitable Taoism for yourself.

The five elements are inherently mutually generated and restrained. A single element can be domineering, steady, weak, strong, or lively.

All five elements are complete, moderate and peaceful, mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and complementing each other's deficiencies.

Based on the most familiar Five Elements Secret Book, combined with his own insights, and drawing on the Qingmu Immortal Technique, Tuxuanhou Jue and Taiyi Jin Jue, Shi Chen secluded himself for half a year and deduced the most suitable technique for himself.

Although the water and fire elements of the Five Elements are still missing, the foundation of the technique has been laid. As long as we can learn from the water and fire techniques and improve the technique, the power of the Taoist method will be able to be improved by several levels.

For water-based skills, you can discuss it with Ji Mo Ran.

If you want to inherit the fire-based skills, you have to find another way.

Ma Min's Fire and Wood dual-element technique can be used as a reference. By combining the two elements, and then completing Shi Chen's Five Elements technique, we can deduce the combination of two elements, three elements, and so on.

Now we have only laid the foundation, which needs to be improved. There is a long way to go, so we will have to wait and see.

It was not that difficult for Shi Chen to re-cultivate the skills, because they were all from the same origin. Based on the Five Elements Secret Book, he could modify some of the practice lines and find the practice method that suited him best.

His cultivation level dropped a lot, from the perfect golden elixir to the middle stage of foundation building.

After three months of training, his cultivation level returned to the first level of the Golden Core. There was no bottleneck in advancement, no shackles. After the foundation was completed, he was directly promoted to the first level of the Golden Core. Without obstacles on the road, there would be no heavenly punishment or lightning.

When Shi Chen walked out of his hut, Qian Xue also opened the door of his hut and was surprised to see the changes in Shi Chen.

"Mr. Shi, are you going to disperse your cultivation and start over?" Qian Xue asked curiously.

"Senior Qian, I didn't disperse my power. I just understood my own way and corrected my Taoism. That's why my cultivation level has decreased, but my Taoism is more compatible. Now the spiritual power in my body is more powerful than before." Shi Chen said.

"Oh, my friend, you are able to understand yourself and make up for the deficiencies in your own Tao. It seems that you have great fortune."

"It was also a feeling I had occasionally, a sudden realization that led me to understand my own path and clarify my own path. I would also like to thank the seniors for this. The Huangjing Spiritual Stem is extremely effective. I was able to have this sudden realization thanks to it."

"Congratulations, my friend! The great path is within reach. External objects are ultimately only auxiliary; one's own self is the source. There are many cultivators who use the Huangjing Spiritual Stem to aid their cultivation, but how many can achieve enlightenment through it?"

"Thank you for your kind words, Senior. However, I still have a long way to go. Right now, I have only mastered the basics and need to improve a lot."

"Friend Shi, with the current results of your cultivation, how many years do you estimate it will take to reach the state of perfect fusion?"

"Within a hundred years, my cultivation will surely reach the state of perfect fusion."

"That's good. It won't take up too much time."

"If you want to speed up your cultivation, that's also possible."

"Oh, you can also speed up the improvement of your cultivation?"

"Yes, but we still need two more techniques to complete the Five Elements Techniques. I estimate that we can advance the time by about thirty years."

"Which two Five Elements techniques do you need?"

"The five elements of fire and water, it would be best if they could be cultivated to the point of fusion or above."

"Among the twelve of us, Ji Mo Ran practices a water-based technique. A fire-based technique is a bit hard to find. Ma Min practices both fire and wood. Does this match?"

"With my current skills, I can't learn from Senior Ma Min's Fire and Wood Skills. I want to learn from Senior Ji Mo Ran's skills, but I don't think she will pass them on to me."

"Indeed, the inheritance of martial arts is the lifeblood of every sect and is strictly forbidden to outsiders. We passed it on to you because we knew our time was running out and we couldn't find a successor here. I'll try to negotiate with Ji Mo Ran about her water-based martial arts. You might have to agree to some conditions."

"As long as it doesn't violate morality, other conditions are negotiable. Please, Senior Qian."

"Just wait for good news, it should work."

Qian Xue went to find Ji Mo Ran. Shi Chen didn't know what to do, so he had to wait in front of the thatched cottage. If the deal was settled, Qian Xue would come over soon.

After just a quarter of an hour of waiting, Qian Xue appeared at Ji Muran's door and waved to Shi Chen. In a daze, Shi Chen appeared in front of him.

"Friend Shi, Fellow Daoist Ji has agreed to your request, but there are some conditions. You need to discuss this with her yourself. Please go in." Qian Xue said with a smile.

"Thank you, Senior Qian, for your help. I will definitely fulfill the promise." Shi Chen thanked him.

"Go in, don't keep her waiting too long." Qian Xue said, and in a flash, he appeared in front of his thatched hut, reached out to open the door and went in.

Shi Chen walked into Ji Mo Ran's thatched cottage and found that he had entered a small courtyard with a lotus pond, green bamboo, a stone jade pavilion, a white jade table, and an elegant cottage.

Ji Mo Ran was sitting at the white jade table in the pavilion, looking at the lotus flowers and brocade fish in the lotus pond.

Shi Chen walked over to Ji Mo Ran and bowed, "Hello, Senior Ji!"

"Now that you are here, please sit anywhere. Old Man Qian has already told me what you want. You want to learn my water-based skills. To be honest, no one and no sect would agree in the past. But now we are all trapped here, and only you have the chance to take us away from here. Otherwise, you will not have the chance to learn our skills." Ji Muran said lightly. She did not turn around to look at Shi Chen, and from time to time she sprinkled some fish food into the lotus pond.

"Thank you for your help, senior. I don't know what conditions you have, but as long as it does not violate morality, I will do my best to complete it." Shi Chen said sincerely.

"It's nothing actually. Do you have a sect? Do you want to become a disciple?"

"I have already entered the sect and have a master, but I haven't officially entered yet."

"Oh, there is a master, but no initiation. What does this mean?"

"Ten years ago, a war broke out in Dongzhizhou of Dayu Continent in the cultivation world. The sea monsters invaded Dongzhizhou. The third elder of my sect, Li Yangfei, led the disciples to support us. He met me and accepted me as his disciple. The human cultivators were unable to resist the sea monsters, and the sea monsters occupied Dayu Continent. Because I killed a direct grandson of the sea monster royal family, I was hunted by the sea monster royal family and was forced to enter Mowo and come here." Shi Chen briefly recounted his experience.

"I can give you the inheritance jade slip, but if you can go out, help me find a female successor with water spirit roots, and I need you to help me cultivate her to the fusion stage."

"Yes, if I can leave here, I will find a female with water spiritual roots, pass on the water-based skills to her, and train her to the fusion stage." Shi Chen said solemnly.

"Okay, you will study here for three months. I will answer all your questions one by one. After three months, I will seal myself. From then on, it all depends on your luck."

"Thank you for your help, Senior. I will complete what I promised."

For the next three months, Shi Chen studied Ji Mo Ran's water inheritance in her thatched cottage. Whenever he encountered any problems, he would ask Ji Mo Ran, and she would answer all the water inheritance questions one by one.

While studying the water-based inheritance, he compared the water-based skills with his own five-element water skills and integrated them.

It’s just because the study time is short and we haven’t learned everything yet, so the integration process is very slow.
