208: The Five Elements Unify, Initial Stage of the Heavenly Dao

[Ding, successful check-in. Congratulations, Host, on obtaining one billion Medium Grade Immortal Crystals!]

The System's grand voice fell.

Ye Ming saw one billion Immortal Crystals appear out of thin air in the space, and they were Medium Grade Immortal Crystals, one Rank higher than Low Grade Immortal Crystals!

Ye Ming took one out to observe carefully.

Unlike the random shapes of Low Grade Immortal Crystals, Medium Grade Immortal Crystals were elongated rhomboids, with a wisp of Origin Immortal Qi at their center, capable of continuously producing Immortal Qi.

If a Medium Grade Immortal Crystal was left in a geomantic vein for a long time, it could even transform the geomantic vein directly into a Low Grade immortal vein!

However, this process takes a very long time, at least hundreds of thousands of years to form an immortal vein, but it is still very miraculous, a divine item that is a renewable resource.

Although this is common in the Immortal Realm, there are no Medium Grade Immortal Crystals in the Spirit Realm; there are only a small number of Low Grade Immortal Crystals, which are treasured by the powerhouses of all races.

However, once this Universe is elevated to the Rank of the Immortal Realm, things like Low Grade Immortal Crystals will no longer be scarce.

With nothing to do, Ye Ming held a Medium Grade Immortal Crystal in his hand and began to absorb the Origin Immortal Qi within it.

After half a quarter of an hour, the Immortal Crystal turned into an empty shell, like a crystal, with no more mysterious Immortal light, becoming a crystal that could only be admired.

The difference was that Ye Ming's face was full of joy. After absorbing this Medium Grade Immortal Crystal, another Law root of his opened up!

Since entering the Heavenly Immortal Realm last time, his Cultivation had not been so easy to advance through Cultivate. He might have to enter seclusion for hundreds or thousands of years to complete one root vein.

However, with these Medium Grade Immortal Crystals, he only needed to absorb thousands of them to complete one Law root vein.

Although at his current Realm, there was a limit to the number of Immortal Crystals he could absorb each day, if he added his five Primordial Spirits, absorbing Immortal Crystals for a year, he would be able to enter the Heavenly Immortal Middle Stage within a few years!

And with the Cultivation gained from subsequent check-ins, it wouldn't take long to step into the True Immortal Realm, at most a dozen years would be enough!

Thinking of this, Ye Ming contentedly took out ten million Medium Grade Immortal Crystals and placed them in his Grotto-Heaven for his five Primordial Spirits to absorb together.

Speaking of these five Primordial Spirits, he had to mention the Five Elements Returning to One Art that the System had given him at the beginning!

His five Primordial Spirits were Cultivated using this Cultivation Technique, which was a Ninth Rank Supreme Grade!

Originally, according to this Cultivation Technique, after Cultivating to Undergoing Tribulation, the Five Elements were supposed to merge into one, meaning all five Primordial Spirits would return to the main body, increasing his strength to nine times that of an ordinary person.

But Ye Ming did not. He gave up on the Five Elements merging into one!

After Cultivating the Cultivation Technique to the pinnacle of perfection, he forcibly cut off the last part, preventing the Five Elements from merging.

Even without the Five Elements merging, he and his five Primordial Spirits already possessed eight times the strength.

It was fine to forgo the last bit of strength, after all, with five Primordial Spirits as helpers, he didn't need to painstakingly create Clones or anything!

Moreover, Clones couldn't help him Cultivate in real-time and would still need some time to give back to him, not to mention the possibility of Clones rebelling.

Compared to that, Clones were truly far inferior to Primordial Spirits. Primordial Spirits were better; they were all himself!

It must be said that this Five Elements Returning to One Art provided him with a lot of help.

Even though he no longer Cultivated it, this Cultivation Technique remained in his System space, eternally with him!

Watching his five Primordial Spirits diligently absorbing Immortal Crystals, Ye Ming felt a slightFeeling in his heart.

Afterward, Ye Ming wandered around the Grotto-Heaven again. Even the air in the center was filled with Immortal Qi, and countless Immortal Medicines grew everywhere in the Grotto-Heaven, with Spirit Medicines only seen in the corners.

The Little White Dragon did not disappoint him, not only elevating several Spiritual Veins to Low Grade immortal veins but also cultivating more immortal veins.

Now, the Grotto-Heaven already had more than a dozen immortal veins!

After he finished wandering, the Little White Dragon came over with a dozen younger siblings.

After the Little White Dragon reported the current situation to Ye Ming, it then explained its purpose.

"Master, the fifteenth immortal vein is almost complete, but we've run out of Immortal Crystals. Do you still want to create more immortal veins?"

"Create as many as you can, until the limit. Take these; it's time for you all to improve as well!"

Ye Ming was not stingy. With a wave of his hand, he threw twenty million Medium Grade Immortal Crystals to the Little White Dragon, telling it to create as much as possible!

Seeing the mountain of Medium Grade Immortal Crystals piled on the ground, the Little White Dragon's mouth was practically watering, but it didn't forget to assure Ye Ming,

"Alright, Master, just wait for our good news!"

"So many Immortal Crystals!"

"All these are ours..."

The other small Dragons following the Little White Dragon were also stunned, their pupils gradually taking on the appearance of Immortal Crystals.

Just one glance and they couldn't look away!

Ye Ming didn't chat with them for too long. After reminding them to work hard, he turned and left the Grotto-Heaven.

He still needed to absorb Immortal Crystals.

The sooner he stepped into the True Immortal Realm, the sooner he could complete his plan!

As soon as he thought of the plan being completed, Ye Ming was instantly full of vigor, immediately sitting cross-legged under the Grand Array and beginning to absorb Medium Grade Immortal Crystals.

And this absorption lasted for two years!

Two years also meant he had checked in twice, and the reward for the first check-in was fourteen hundred years of Cultivation.

This Cultivation directly propelled him to the Heavenly Immortal Middle Stage, opening more than twenty Law root veins.

Out of ninety-nine Law root veins, he had now successfully opened and filled forty-eight, still a long way from the fifty-nine root veins of the Late Stage.

The check-in reward for the second year was a Medium Grade Immortal Artifact, his first Medium Grade Immortal Artifact, possessing two hundred eighty Major Achievement Laws, capable of contending with True Immortal powerhouses!

But it could only contend, as this was not a killing Immortal Artifact, but merely an Alchemy Immortal Furnace.

Indeed, he finally added another Immortal Furnace, and it was a Medium Grade Immortal Furnace, one Rank higher than the star dipper immortal furnace, named the Radiant Moon Immortal Furnace!

The Radiant Moon Immortal Furnace's Alchemy function was even more powerful, capable of refining Supreme Grade Immortal Pills, and without Ye Ming needing to do it himself.

As long as he refined it once, the Immortal Furnace would remember the technique and refine pills for him. As long as the Immortal Power was continuous, it could keep refining, with a perfect 100% pill yield efficiency, and the speed would also get faster each time!

Ye Ming was very satisfied with this Radiant Moon Immortal Furnace and directly handed many Low, Medium, and High Grade Immortal Pills to it for refining.

As for the star dipper immortal furnace, he could take it out and do some work when he had nothing to do; it was still useful!

These were the check-in rewards for two years. Overall, they were not bad. Besides improving his Realm, he also gained a Medium Grade Immortal Artifact!

Another month passed.

Ye Ming stopped absorbing Immortal Crystals, opened his eyes, and looked at the large cocoon!

At this time, the surface of the large cocoon was very dim. The purple-gold light that had been breathing in and out had completely disappeared, fully digested by the Heavenly Dao of Spirit Immortal!

With a "crack"!

The large cocoon began to crack, finally shattering with a bang, and a purple-gold light mass flew out from within.

"Greetings, Master!"

A cold voice emanated from the light mass, and a powerful consciousness fluctuation spread with it.

At the same time.

Outside.

The Celestial Domain and the entire Universe, at this moment, gained a thick layer of purple-gold clouds, and countless earth-shattering divine lightning emerged from within.
