To create a true cultivation technique of your own,
you must not conform to existing techniques.
You must break out of the mold and forge a path that belongs to you.
Jiang Ye contemplated this, once again wielding the spear.
"Swish~"
"Swish!" Jiang Ye swung the long spear, integrating various complex ideas into it, attempting to create a new spear technique.
...
Ti passed.
Jiang Ye was imrsed in the creation technique, unable to extricate himself.
His strength and vision now far exceed what they had been during the Fourth Layer assessnt.
After all, Jiang Ye had now studied many upper Profound Tier and even Earth Tier spear techniques; having explored various schools, he began forming his own ideas.
But how easy is it to create a new technique?
Though he had his own ideas, they were too chaotic.
They seed beautiful in theory, but when integrated into spear techniques, they appeared extrely diocre.
Jiang Ye did not give up, repeatedly attempting to integrate all he had learned into his spear technique.
Ti flowed like water.
In the ’Cold Sun Dojo’, a figure moved continuously.
He seed impervious to hunger or fatigue.
As the sun rose and the moon set, through cold and heat, he was always practicing his spear.
But the difficulty of creating a technique was beyond imagination; no matter how he swung, he could not complete a clear path.
...
In the blink of an eye, years had passed.
The Cold Sun Dojo’s scenery remained unchanged.
However, the dual intents of ice and fire had beco incomparably chaotic.
Under the influence of ’whatever is thought becos visible’, this dojo changed with Jiang Ye’s spear technique intent.
By now, Jiang Ye found it difficult to perform even the ’Cold Sun Spear Technique’ genuinely.
He had lost his way in the search for a new path.
This was a terrifying situation.
Losing direction in the creation technique path could shake an originally solid foundation.
The ’Great Sun Spear Technique’ and ’Cold Sun Spear Technique’ Jiang Ye had learned were all unperformable, as he had beco lost in spear techniques.
"Whew."
When Jiang Ye picked up the spear again, it felt entirely alien.
As if it was his first ti holding a spear, he had forgotten how to even execute a technique.
"I... can’t wield the spear anymore." Jiang Ye’s eyes filled with confusion.
Behind that confusion lay a trace of fear.
He had truly lost himself on this path.
At this mont, Jiang Ye finally understood why that warning had appeared earlier.
Embarking on this road, there was no turning back!
The creation technique path was a point of no return!
Once embarked, there’s no going back... perhaps that was why it was so difficult and rare.
Failure in creating a technique ant being completely lost on this path.
"I’ve forgotten the spear techniques I learned before."
"What should I do?" Jiang Ye murmured: "Am I going to be trapped here forever."
Forget even what one has learned; how could one speak of creating a technique?
"Any carelessness might cause one to lose their true self." Jiang Ye finally understood the aning of this saying.
Could it be he would be lost here forever?
Fear visibly welled up in Jiang Ye’s eyes uncontrollably.
He might be trapped here forever, lost on this path, unable to turn back or get out!
"No."
"My senior sister is still out there waiting for ." Jiang Ye’s gaze suddenly beca resolute: "I have to get out, I must forge my path and create my technique."
Once again, he tightly grasped the long spear.
However, this ti, Jiang Ye’s mindset seed different from before.
"My own path."
"My own technique?" Jiang Ye murmured, a hint of realization flashing in his eyes: "Why must I be fixated on spear techniques; what’s most suitable for is best."
"What is truly suitable for ?"
Jiang Ye asked himself, starting to probe his heart.
What did he truly want?
What was his heart yearning for?
Closing his eyes, Jiang Ye finally began exploring his inner self.
"Whew~" Unknowingly, the intent realm on the Cold Sun Dojo began changing again.
The chaotic spear intents quickly dissipated.
The entire Cold Sun Dojo swiftly faded.
A new scene gradually appeared.
"Swoosh!"
When Jiang Ye opened his eyes again, he had already arrived in a most familiar massage room.
Lying on a pristine white bed.
Several exquisite maidens surrounded him.
Massaging him with care.
"The allure of beauty draws one to demise, yet it is one of life’s most important experiences." Jiang Ye looked at these diverse and enchanting maidens and gained a faint realization.
He closed his eyes, peacefully enjoying their service.
Ti slipped away.
Following his heart, Jiang Ye was gaining insights into the path truly his own.
Who knew how much ti had passed.
"Swoosh~"
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and those maidens before him had turned into cold skeletons, yet they continued their chanical massages.
But Jiang Ye did not rise.
Lying there, he experienced the service of these icy skeletons.
"Red powder skeletons, a handful of dust."
"A martial artist should not be lost to apparent beauty, nor fear the essence’s emptiness." Jiang Ye’s realization deepened: "Prosperity and dissolution, spring charm and cold frost, all are essential parts of life."
Whew~
He rose with determination.
The massage room, along with the red powder skeletons, rapidly vanished.
That grand dojo reappeared.
Jiang Ye once again took hold of the spear.
But now he exuded a completely different aura.
"Seeing emptiness in beauty, staying true within emptiness." Jiang Ye murmured, "This is my path!"
Swish~
Once again, he waved the long spear.
At that mont, countless images seed to unfurl in Jiang Ye’s mind, graceful figures flashed by: Chen Zilu, Zhao Qingli, Yun Qing’Er...
Yet in the next instant, these figures turned into red powder skeletons.
Not being lost in apparent beauty nor fearing the essence’s emptiness.
This was Jiang Ye’s Dao!
"Boom!" Jiang Ye gripped the spear tightly and made a fierce strike.
With the strike’s thrust, the entire dojo’s intent realm underwent a magnificent transformation.
Bursting spring colors appeared, all while ghastly white bones rained down from the sky... two contradictory intent realms rged.
"Rumble!!" At the mont Jiang Ye thrust the spear, these two intents fully erupted.
This spear!
Hidden spring charm, containing white bones.
Only the sound of "rumble" was heard, as if the whole dojo was hit by a nuclear bomb, shattering in a vigorous quake.
"It’s done." Jiang Ye finally smiled.
He finally created a spear technique truly his own!
"Whew—"
At that mont, past mories flooded back; countless days and nights spent practicing the Great Sun Spear Technique, practicing the Cold Sun Spear Technique.
These spear technique mories returned to Jiang Ye’s mind.
But now, Jiang Ye found them unimportant.
"A spear technique truly my own."
"I’ll call it... Luoshen Spear." Jiang Ye smiled.
Luoshen Spear, Beauty Spear!
This was a spear technique realm that belonged solely to Jiang Ye.
It would undoubtedly completely replace all of Jiang Ye’s past techniques, reaching an unprecedented new height.
Because it was truly Jiang Ye’s own, perfectly suited to him.
At the mont Jiang Ye nad the spear technique.
"Swish~" The surrounding environnt rapidly retreated.
And with it, Jiang Ye’s consciousness suddenly went dark.
...
"Swish!"
When Jiang Ye opened his eyes again, he was already standing on the gleaming Martial Arts Celestial Ladder.
"Rumble!"
A magnificent Martial Arts Golden Stele rose slowly, with four grand characters inscribed in bold strokes:
’Martial Arts Ancestor’!
[Congratulations, you have reached the Martial Arts Celestial Ladder Fifth Layer, acquiring the Immortal Monunt!]
[Calculating rewards...]
"Finally passed."
Jiang Ye sighed deeply, slight unease in his heart: "I wonder how much ti has passed in the outside world?"
He still rembered, Chen Zilu was waiting outside.
This assessnt took several years.
But the assessnt ti differed from real ti, Jiang Ye was unsure of the outside world’s ti flow.
As Jiang Ye waited.
The rewards calculation page finally surfaced.
