453: Chapter 453 Integration
The Five Elements spiritual light was completely restrained, no longer sharp and overbearing. Gold-white, pale green, profound black, ochre yellow, and vermilion red—the five colors cycled and faded, replaced by the Chaos Qi of Primal Origin.
Liu Xuan opened his eyes. There was no sharp divine light in his gaze; instead, it was as deep as a vast sea and as still as an ancient abyss.
Upon closer inspection, one would discover the principles of the Five Elements' birth and destruction and the evolution of Yin and Yang within them, as if falling into a world of boundless Chaos.
"After the Fusion of the Five Elements comes the Great Dao of Primal Origin. In that case, this Cultivation Technique shall be called: Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method."
The fourth-rank Peak Alchemy Legacy allowed Liu Xuan to comprehend a trace of the Law of Alchemy. The Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Body Refining Method and True Dragon Essence Blood allowed Liu Xuan to master a trace of the Law of Space. The Fusion of the Five Elements Cultivation Methods further enabled him to comprehend a trace of the Law of the Great Dao of Primal Origin.
His cultivation was only at the Mid Golden Core Stage, yet he had already comprehended three types of Laws, all of which were Great Daos of an extremely high level. With so many Great Dao Laws comprehended for Nascent Soul Formation, how strong would he be when the time came?
With a thought, a streak of Chaos sword light flew out from Liu Xuan's body. The heavenly origin sword hung motionless in the air, yet it felt as if a 'world' was suspended there, about to crash down.
Alchemy Dao, Space Great Dao, Primal Origin Great Dao—one sword, one world. The heavenly origin sword was terrifying to a degree that surpassed common understanding.
"I wonder what the specific gap is between me and an Early Nascent Soul Stage True Monarch?"
With Liu Xuan's insight, he felt that even if he couldn't win against an Early Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, he could at least exchange a few moves. If he used all his means and had the blessing of a Formation, he could definitely defeat most Early Nascent Soul Stage True Monarchs.
"Once my cultivation reaches the Peak Golden Core, fighting across a major Realm will no longer be a dream!"
Even with Liu Xuan's profound foundation, it was difficult to fight across a major Realm. It wasn't that he wasn't strong enough, but that the gap between major Realms was simply too vast!
Overcoming a superior from below was difficult to achieve even with an Earth Vein Grand Array and a massive army of Cultivators, let alone in a one-on-one fight.
Liu Xuan had never pursued fighting above his level; what he wanted was progress in cultivation and crushing others through his Realm!
Having comprehended three Great Dao Laws, the most enviable thing about Liu Xuan now wasn't his formidable combat power, but rather his smooth and unobstructed path to the Dao.
The Nascent Soul Formation Bottleneck was a natural chasm for others, but for him, it was as simple as eating or drinking; he could Breakthrough as soon as his accumulation was sufficient.
Liu Xuan retracted the heavenly origin sword into his body and then carefully experienced the profound mysteries of the Primal Origin Dharmic power.
From then on, Liu Xuan's daily life included a new task: organizing the Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method into a Legacy that the Family could study.
The foundation of the Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method was the Five Elements Cultivation Methods. Currently, the Green Wood Longevity Method and Geng Metal Sword Art that the children were practicing didn't need to be changed; Liu Xuan only needed to organize the parts for the Golden Core stage and above.
The effect he wanted to achieve was for his descendants to practice the Five Elements Cultivation Methods until they reached the Golden Core Realm and touched the limit of a single technique, at which point they would switch to the Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method.
A single Five Elements Cultivation Technique and the Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method were essentially one and the same, equivalent to an advanced version of the technique. Switching would not result in any loss of Dharmic power.
Descendants with average talent and Comprehension Ability could not directly comprehend the Primal Origin Concept. Practicing a single Five Elements Cultivation Technique first had the benefit of gradual progress.
For those descendants with exceptional talent and comprehension, Liu Xuan also planned to directly create a Minor Five Elements Primal Origin Method that encompassed the Five Elements, allowing them to practice the complete Five Elements Cultivation Technique starting from the Qi Refinement Stage.
Simply put, the fundamental Cultivation Technique of the Liu Family would be the Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method, while the Green Wood Longevity Method, Geng Metal Sword Art, and Supreme Good Myriad Transformation Scripture would be the subordinate basic techniques.
In addition, the Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Body Refining Method would serve as a supplement, allowing true Geniuses to practice Body Refining concurrently.
Descendants with the Dragon Clan Bloodline could also practice the True Dragon Fate Reversal Scripture, and could also try the Kunpeng Body Refining method and the Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method.
The Legacy covered all aspects; no matter what kind of talent was born, there would be a suitable Legacy for them.
"The Daoist Legacies are now in place. The only thing my Liu Immortal Clan lacks is time!"
There was no rush to organize the Legacy of the Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method; after all, it would be a long time before his descendants reached Core Formation.
The most urgent task at hand was to organize the Minor Five Elements Primal Origin Method suitable for cultivation during the Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment Stages.
He would give it to his descendants to try practicing; those with talent could start immediately.
Liu Xuan had comprehended the Primal Origin Law, and with the comprehension of his descendants added to his own, he had an extremely thorough understanding of the basic Five Elements. Creating the Minor Five Elements Primal Origin Method was very easy.
The Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method had a grand name, but in reality, limited by Liu Xuan's cultivation, it was currently only at the Third-rank High-grade level, even lower than the Green Wood Longevity Method.
However, since this technique was created by Liu Xuan himself, its level would increase as he created higher-stage portions along with his own cultivation progress.
His descendants' cultivation insights would be added to him, and the high-level Legacies he created would then be practiced by many descendants. This was a cycle that, in theory, could continue infinitely.
The future was boundless!
Although the Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method's rank wasn't high now, it actually had no upper limit.
It seemed like Liu Xuan was giving the children high-level Legacies, but in reality, it was the many descendants themselves who were cultivating, and Liu Xuan was merely acting like a central processor to integrate their gains.
In just three days, Liu Xuan completed the creation of the Minor Five Elements Primal Origin Method. This technique was divided into two parts: Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment.
Liu Xuan handed the Qi Refinement portion to Lin Xue'er to be mass-printed into booklets, which were then distributed to the descendants to try practicing.
By directly practicing the Minor Five Elements Primal Origin Method, there would be no need to switch techniques later, making the path to the Dao even smoother.
To encourage his descendants to practice the Minor Five Elements Primal Origin Method from a young age, Liu Xuan first praised it as a top-tier Legacy and then announced that generous rewards would be given to those who successfully mastered the basics.
As for the Foundation Establishment portion, Liu Xuan personally recorded several copies onto Jade Slips and placed them in the Liu Family's Hall of Legacies. Whoever reached the Peak of Qi Refinement using the Minor Five Elements Primal Origin Method first would be the first to obtain it.
Once a Cultivation Technique involved the Foundation Establishment Stage or above, it became difficult for the text and illustrations in booklets to carry its content. Forcing it into booklets would not only result in excessive content but also lead to errors and omissions.
Therefore, Foundation Establishment techniques were generally recorded on Jade Slips. Only those Loose Cultivators without any background would use incomplete booklets for cultivation.
Jade Slips could be directly recorded using the Divine Soul, allowing even some profound and mysterious Concepts to be replicated. They could also be received directly by the Divine Soul, making them thousands of times more efficient than booklets.
However, Jade Slips were essentially recorded by Cultivators who had mastered the technique. Since they were recorded by Cultivators, there were naturally subtle differences between the recordings of different individuals.
The Jade Slips recorded by Liu Xuan were naturally of higher quality than those recorded by later practitioners.
As the number of descendants grew, Liu Xuan would naturally be too lazy to personally record such low-level Jade Slips in the future. Being able to obtain a Jade Slip personally recorded by him was a benefit for the early children.
After the Qi Refinement Stage portion of the Minor Five Elements Primal Origin Method was distributed, Liu Xuan waited with great anticipation for the children to master the basics soon.
But reality dealt him a heavy blow. A whole month passed, and not a single one had mastered the basics...
Refusing to accept this, Liu Xuan gathered the children who had just started learning the Qi Refinement methods to teach them personally.
As a result, he was nearly driven to cough up blood in anger. No matter how detailed his explanations were, still not a single child could master the basics!
