At the sa ti, in the Spirit Vein cave abode on Trash Island.
Mo Fuyang had aged significantly, his appearance marked by the passage of ti.
His face was lined with deep wrinkles, his skin dull and lackluster, yet he exuded a sense of calm and composure, as if tempered by the Five Elents Immortal Path, becoming wiser and more profound.
Mo Fuyang was now surrounded by the qi of the Five Elents: red, yellow, green, blue, and purple, each emitting a different aura.
His figure flickered in and out among these five colors, which swirled around him like five coiling dragons, constantly surging.
It was as if Mo Fuyang had rged with the Five Elents, becoming one with heaven and earth, growing alongside nature.
"Truly worthy of being a predecessor," Mo Fuyang murmured softly in the cave abode, treating the Five Elents Immortal Scripture in his hands as a treasure, determined to protect it with his immortal path.
A smile appeared on his lips as his hands wove continuously in the air, causing the qi of the Five Elents to change accordingly.
Mo Fuyang was now in the early Golden Elixir phase, cultivating rapidly under the grand world's overwhelming qi of the Five Elents, with no bottlenecks in sight.
After all, he was essentially rebuilding his cultivation, and the Five Elents Immortal Path was evidently much easier than the Spiritual Qi Immortal Path.
When he broke through to the Foundation Establishnt and Golden Elixir phases, Chen Xun had visited, but no tribulation descended, nor did the Five Elent Golden Elixir form.
The Foundation Establishnt Pill with pill patterns was completely ineffective for him, unable to expand his ridians.
Chen Xun thus realized that to truly walk the sa path as them, one must first cultivate the Spiritual Qi Immortal Path, then use the Foundation Establishnt Pill with pill patterns to break into the Golden Elixir phase, but...
The tearing force on the ridians, even if one reached the limit of body refinent in the Qi cultivation phase, was impossible to withstand, at least not for humans.
Moreover, the subsequent Golden Elixir tribulation was essentially a death sentence for ordinary people.
This situation created an absolute deadlock; the true Five Elents Immortal Path that he and Black Bull walked was one that no one else could replicate or follow. The only solution was to first elevate the Five Elents spiritual roots.
The most crucial point was the formation of the true Five Elents spiritual roots, which Mo Fuyang did not possess.
His essence was still the Five Elents spiritual roots that Chen Xun had helped mutate, only much stronger than before, capable of perceiving and invoking the Five Elents, but not truly controlling them.
The path of the Five Elents Immortal Path was still a long journey, impossible to achieve overnight.
Mo Fuyang was rely the first step Chen Xun had taken; naturally, there would be a second and third step in the future.
But these circumstances were enough to satisfy and move Mo Fuyang.
If he were to duel with a Golden Elixir phase cultivator now, as long as their strength wasn't vastly superior, he could even neutralize their spells.
However, he couldn't control the power of the Five Elents' decomposition; the difference between decomposition and neutralization was vast, and he couldn't achieve what Chen Xun and the others could.
Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew through.
A figure in white appeared outside the cave abode, his sleeves fluttering, and the surrounding aura seed to quiet down.
Mo Fuyang was startled and respectfully clasped his hands, "Mo Fuyang greets the predecessor!"
"Hehe, Old Mo, I've co to see how your cultivation is progressing." Chen Xun smiled slightly as he walked into the cave abode, and the surrounding qi of the Five Elents beca exceptionally harmonious.
Even the five-colored light around Mo Fuyang beca lively, filling him with a sense of awe.
The predecessor was like the ancestor of the Five Elents, commanding the qi of the Five Elents of heaven and earth.
Fortunately, he didn't voice this thought, for if Chen Xun heard it, he might have to offer incense to the heavens in reverence.
Such a notion was highly disrespectful; he never considered the Five Elents of heaven and earth to be beneath him, always seeing them as equals.
"Predecessor, this Five Elents Immortal Path seems to have no bottlenecks..."
Mo Fuyang's expression was sowhat hesitant; this situation was sowhat revolutionary for the entire world of immortals, "My cultivation is progressing rapidly, and the Five Elents Immortal Scripture is incredibly detailed, even down to the distribution of acupoints. I haven't encountered any difficulties yet."
After speaking, he lowered his head slightly; the content was sowhat chaotic, yet detailed enough to easily discern its intricacies.
Chen Xun glanced at Mo Fuyang and smiled, "Has the backlash on your lifespan recovered?"
"Predecessor, no problem at all." Mo Fuyang took a deep breath, initially quite anxious, but upon advancing to the Foundation Establishnt phase, he understood everything.
It was well known that if one severed their path, like at the Elental Infant phase, their lifespan would be two thousand years.
If one had lived a thousand years and severed their path to the Qi cultivation phase, they would lose two thousand years of lifespan, with the remaining thousand years irrecoverable.
But consuming a Taiwei Purple Immortal Fruit could completely counteract this lifespan backlash.
It ant he still had a thousand years of lifespan left, even if he broke through back to the Elental Infant phase, it couldn't be replenished.
Innately, he had a thousand years less lifespan than others, unless he broke through to a higher realm, which could add so lifespan.
Therefore, cultivators would never sever their path to rebuild; they might only sever their techniques, dropping a realm or major realm.
This was the danger of the Five Elents Immortal Path, but great risks ca with great opportunities.
Mo Fuyang now felt reborn, exuding a steady confidence.
After inspecting him, Chen Xun nodded and said seriously, "The path of the Five Elents Immortal Path is still being explored, but it will not end here. Old Mo, you are the first person I've passed this path to, and I look forward to your future."
Mo Fuyang's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he solemnly said, "Predecessor, the power of the Five Elents Immortal Path definitely surpasses that of the Spiritual Qi Immortal Path, but..."
He hesitated, as this immortal path was too revolutionary.
If widely spread, with the predecessor's current strength, he might not be able to protect it, and it would surely attract attention.
"Hehe, no worries, take these booklets and study them carefully, act low-key, I have my considerations."
Chen Xun noticed the concern in Mo Fuyang's heart and placed a few booklets in his hands, "Walking the path of the Five Elents Immortal Path, one should seek the immortal path, not compete with other cultivators."
With that, he appeared calm and composed, one hand behind his back, speaking with deep aning.
Mo Fuyang's pupils widened slightly as he cautiously opened a page: "May the gods and Buddhas..."
"Wait!" Chen Xun was alard, realizing he had taken the wrong booklet, this one was ant for Black Bull, "Old Mo, let give you a different version."
"Heh... hehe, as the predecessor says." Mo Fuyang chuckled awkwardly, his honest expression making the situation quite embarrassing.
Chen Xun cleared his throat, carefully checked, and then handed over a few more booklets, as so things about the Five Elents Immortal Path couldn't be casually shared.
Mo Fuyang accepted them solemnly, bowing deeply, "Thank you for the Dao Ancestor's grace!"
"Mm." Chen Xun nodded with satisfaction, then changed the subject, "Old Mo, we've bought a property on Li Chen Island, nad Immaculate Immortal Ridge."
Mo Fuyang was surprised, "Predecessor, that's one of the three great cultivation sanctuaries of Li Chen Island!"
His breathing quickened, even more excited than when he first saw Chen Xun.
Mo Fuyang was genuinely happy for Chen Xun, even feeling that staying on Trash Island wasn't ideal.
Especially with the young lady, this place was ultimately not a peaceful one, better left for him to manage.
