Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 636: Chapter 35 United as One_5

“It seems he’s on the correct path now.”

Su Cheng looked pleased.

However, he quickly realized that his thoughts were too wishful.

In the following ten days, Wang Ba kept losing control. The frequency of these incidents did not decrease, but instead, they increased.

What puzzled Su Cheng was that with each disaster, there was a faint hint of fire-based aura surging within his junior apprentice-brother.

“Could it be that he’s cultivating a fire-based cultivation method? But I haven’t seen any fire mana whirl forming.”

Su Cheng had been prudently observant, yet he hadn’t noticed any fire mana whirl in Wang Ba’s Dantian.

However, this period of cultivation reached a point where it had to be temporarily halted.

“The Dao-asking Conference will begin in three days. Junior apprentice-brother, if you have to participate in any of the events, you need to start preparing.”

This day, after Wang Ba had just finished his cultivation and was heading back, Su Cheng suddenly said.

Wang Ba looked up, somewhat bewildered. He then realized that he had completely forgotten about the Dao-asking Conference due to his undivided attention to refining his Taiyi True Fire cultivation technique.

“The Dao-asking Conference… Right, I haven’t registered for it yet.”

Wang Ba abruptly realized this issue.

“Junior apprentice-brother, coming from Wanfa Peak, you certainly would want to sign up for the cultivation competition, which is indeed more troublesome than Hundred Arts.”

“However, obtaining first place in the Foundation Establishment Realm would earn you a thousand Merit rewards, which is a significant income.”

Su Cheng instructed, “Junior apprentice-brother, quickly head to Shaoyin Mountain’s Quest Hall vicinity, where you can register for the cultivation contest.”

Wang Ba pondered for a moment. Does he have such confidence in me?

He then nodded and bid Su Cheng farewell.

After leaving Qingmu peak, Wang Ba flew towards Shaoyin Mountain.

As expected, he saw a bustling crowd of cultivators in an open field near the task hall.

Wang Ba joined the line, but did not find the Hundred Arts registration desk.

He stopped a random Foundation Establishment cultivator to inquire.

It turned out that for Hundred Arts, you didn’t need to register. For some few like Alchemy, Artifact refining, and making Talismans that could be physically compared, the rest are based on a scoring system.

Just answer a lot of questions in the categories you are interested in before the conference’s end, then you’ll earn a corresponding score to determine your rank.

The basic rewards of different debating categories remained the same; however, the additional rewards varied significantly.

For the Foundation Establishment Realm Dao discussion, the top three usually earn between five hundred to one thousand merit points.

For the Golden Core Realm literati, it ranges from three thousand to six thousand points.

After pondering for a while, Wang Ba decided not to sign up for the cultivation contest and left Shaoyin Mountain directly.

Given his current strength level, even if he took the top spot in the Foundation Establishment Realm, he would only earn a thousand merit points. Revealing all his secrets for just one thousand merit points—even though they are all from the same school—didn’t sit well with him.

He also understood his limitations regarding the Golden Core Realm debates.

Assisted by his Mysterious Dragon Soldiers and several Class III Spirit beasts, he felt that although he could compete with average Golden Core cultivators, his capability was only limited to just that. Golden Core cultivators were much more profound compared to Foundation Establishment cultivators.

“Better get back and complete the final touches on ‘Taiyi True Fire’!”.

Wang Ba shook his head in silence, then promptly flew back to Wanfa Peak.

As usual, he picked up the wretched, featherless Snow Sun Chicken from the coop to start the final test.

After a while.

Wang Ba wrote on the paper beside him:

“One hundred and sixteenth adjustments, Complete… ”

After over ten days and countless mana outbursts, he successfully refined the introductory part of the Taiyi True Fire.

Although he had a faint feeling that there were still some oversights, the current version was the most perfect state he could achieve at present.

“Phew… ”

Wang Ba exhaled a long breath, then focused on carefully controlling the surrounding fire element Spiritual Energy.

Then, with an unimaginably careful control, he drew a faint strand of Spiritual Energy and quickly refined it.

Very quickly.

In the Dantian, a thread of Fire Magical Power was born smoothly!

At the moment this Fire Mana was born.

Inside the Dantian, four other Mana Whirls seemed to have sensed something and suddenly accelerated!

What made Wang Ba nervous was that as the four Mana Whirls rapidly revolved, the subtle Fire Mana collapsed instantly and in the wink of an eye, a new Mana Whirl formed.

The fire Mana Whirl took shape quickly.

Right at the moment of its formation.

Wang Ba was overjoyed.

He completely let go of the restraint on the Dantian’s Whirl.

The flame suddenly lit!

The initially weak fire whirl rapidly grew stronger, swiftly matched the other four whirls, almost uniformly.

In the blink of an eye, the diverse mana whirls within Dantian seemed to connect mysteriously and quietly merged together.

It vaguely formed a circle.

A sensation of everything coming together naturally started to spring forth.

As Wang Ba absorbed the external spiritual energy like a whale swallowing,

Within this circle, countless Five Elements Mana continually sprang up.

As the Five Elements Mana were born, they quietly flowed into the Mother Qi of Dharmas.

At this moment, the entire Dantian was undergoing earthshaking changes!

The originally colorless and formless Mother Qi of Dharmas also gradually became hazy.

The power contained within it made Wang Ba have an urge to vent.

He couldn’t help raising his hand and making a gesture.

Not far away, a giant, hazy hand suddenly stretched out towards the Snow Sun Chicken resting in the coop!

The Snow Sun Chicken happened to be a Class III Spirit Beast, and it was suddenly furious to find out someone was attacking it.

‘Cluck!’

With an angry cackle.

The Snow Sun Chicken immediately emitted countless Flames of Bing Ding from its body.

However, the next second, the Snow Sun Chicken was stunned.

A flame suddenly rose from the giant hazy hand.

In an instant, the Flames of Bing Ding passed through the giant hand without any hindrance, then it easily and leisurely caught the Snow Sun Chicken.

No matter how the Snow Sun Chicken struggled, the giant hand remained immovable.

“Is this the Dharmas into One after integrating the Five Elements?!”

Wang Ba looked at the giant mana hand in the distance, his eyes full of shock.

The Snow Sun Chicken, after all, was a lower grade Class III Spirit Beast, even Jia 15 who was a middle grade Class III, treated it with reverence… But in his presence, it could not even withstand a single attack.

“This is just the Five Elements. If Wind Method and Thunder Law were to be incorporated…”

Wang Ba couldn’t help but think of Yao Wudi in his heart.

“My master was able to match an Immortal Ascension cultivator while being in the Nascent Soul Stage, how many other essences has he combined?”

While he was mulling over this.

Thick Earth Peak.

In the Immortal Cave.

Hu Zaixi and Ling Weizi finally slowly opened their eyes.

In both their eyes, there was a hint of joy.

“At last, we have deduced the first half of the Taiyi True Fire Sutra.”

“Haha, when Wang Ba hears this, he will surely be astounded!”
