第一千七百九十八章 进阶离合后期(下)

Shangguan Muyu's eyes widened in shock, her face reflecting a level of astonishment that couldn't be expressed in words. After a moment, she finally muttered, "Yan'er, could it be that your master possesses a full attribute spirit root?"

A full attribute spirit root, as the name suggests, is also known as a five-element spirit root, referring to one that contains all the attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

With this in mind, such an individual can mobilize all types of primordial energy from heaven and earth. However, such a phenomenon was merely a legend within the Spirit Realm; other minor realms were unclear about it. Since the records began in the East Sea cultivation realm, there had definitely been no cases like that.

"Daughter, I am also unsure. My master never mentioned his spirit root attributes to me," said Yan'er with an expression of shock not much different from her mother's.

They didn't know that Lin Xuan wasn't even talking about a full attribute spirit root. When he first embarked on the path of cultivation, he hadn't even possessed the most ordinary spirit root. With his averagequalifications, relying solely on effort and the Blue Star Sea, he gradually advanced step by step.

Later, in the Moon Ink Clan, using its sacred fruit, he did indeed develop a wood attribute spirit root. However, it was not particularly exceptional; it was just moderately above average.

Lin Xuan's experiences were so complex that they far exceeded what ordinary cultivators could achieve. The Peacock's innate spiritual light, Yin-Yang Art, and Phoenix Dance in Nine Heavens, combined with various medicinal pills, allowed Lin Xuan to freely mobilize primordial energy from all attributes despite not being a holder of the five-element spirit root. Nobody knew exactly how the Blue Star Sea played a role within him.

In summary, he could achieve such feats due to numerous coincidences and fortunate circumstances that made it impossible for anyone else to replicate.

"Is that so? Then let me consider another perspective: is it possible that Master is currently breaking through to the Dantian玄 (this term often refers to a mystical or supernatural concept, but without more context, it's hard to provide an exact translation) stage?" Yan'er proposed a bold hypothesis. Perhaps this was akin to the saying, "a calf dares not fear tigers."

Upset and amused at the same time, Songyangmuyu shook her head. "Impossible," she said. "Not only has too little time passed, but my ancestor mentioned that the anomalies during a breakthrough to Dantian玄 (this term often refers to a mystical or supernatural concept, but without more context, it's hard to provide an exact translation) are entirely different from this situation."

"Oh!"

The two girls lowered their heads, showing disappointment on their faces. From their perspective, they naturally hoped for their master's strength to be as powerful as possible.

However, it seemed like such thoughts were merely wishful thinking, causing them some disappointment.

"Perhaps…" After a few moments of thought, Yan'er said something and was about to speak when—

Boom!

A loud voice echoed in her ears, deafening yet different from the sound of thunder. She couldn't quite describe what it was but saw that the primordial energy enveloping the island suddenly found an outlet, rushing into Lin Xuan's Hundred Flower Valley with great force.

In a moment, colorful primordial energy converged into a heart-stopping torrent, breathtaking in its grandeur. No words could adequately describe it. The Hundred Flower Valley, though vast, felt like a tiny boat in the midst of an ocean, being submerged or permeated by the primordial energy.

"Ah…"

The three girls were too shocked to cry out; such a spectacle was something they would only see once in their lifetimes.

However, this was just the beginning. "Mother, look," said Yan, pointing at the mountain peak. The dense primordial energy had begun eroding it bit by bit.

The process was slow but undeniable. The mountain crumbled gradually as stones were eroded by the primordial energy and carried away by the wind. It felt like everything within a thousand feet of Lin Xuan's abode was slowly turning to sand.

Yan'er, despite her youth, was equally shocked, even dazed. She began to doubt whether he had surpassed her expectations or even broken through to the Dantian玄 (this term often refers to a mystical or supernatural concept, but without more context, it's hard to provide an exact translation) stage.

The process was magnificent, but the entire valley turned into sand at a glacial pace, visible only by the naked eye. From afar, Songyangmuyu and her two daughters stood for hours without feeling the passage of time.

Moreover, this phenomenon made it impossible to gauge what time it was based on the sky's color.

They had been standing there all night long, from dusk until dawn.

When the sun finally rose over the horizon, casting warm light across the sea, turning its waves golden. At that moment, the entire valley had completely turned into sand. Throughout this process, primordial energy gradually dissipated as if being sucked in by something.

In the morning sunlight, a young man sat on the ground, his face flushed with sweat. He looked exhausted and pained.

After all, breaking through a bottleneck required immense effort even when well-prepared. The actual process was far from easy; many challenges lay ahead that he had to overcome. This time, Lin Xuan encountered unforeseen difficulties that he never anticipated.

But regardless, he succeeded. The achievement was significant enough to bring him joy and celebration.

To be honest, Lin Xuan initially only aimed to advance his main maininfant or young child (context is needed for the most accurate translation)'s realm. The second maininfant or young child (context is needed for the most accurate translation) and the demon core were merely auxiliary effects in this process. After all, one must take it step by step without rushing or risking going astray.

Lin Xuan had planned well, being cautious, but reality proved different. He tried to gather more primordial energy to facilitate easier advancement as per the scriptures. His calculations turned out correct.

Thus, he gathered as much as possible, but he overlooked one thing: there is a limit to everything. Too much primordial energy, combined with the effects of several medicinal pills, overwhelmed his main maininfant or young child (context is needed for the most accurate translation)'s capacity. If not absorbed into his body, it would trigger a false heavenly tribulation—a result Lin Xuan was determined to avoid.

Desperate and unable to bear it, his main maininfant or young child (context is needed for the most accurate translation) had no choice but to let the second maininfant or young child (context is needed for the most accurate translation) take over, absorbing the excess energy. The second maininfant or young child (context is needed for the most accurate translation) was also full, so the demon core joined in.

Fortunately, as a dual maininfant or young child (context is needed for the most accurate translation)-single demon core cultivator, Lin Xuan's fate wasn't dire; he wouldn't die from over-absorption or suffer a false heavenly tribulation. The concentration of primordial energy was so high that even a false heavenly tribulation would be nearly as powerful as the real one.

Lin Xuan originally aimed to advance his main maininfant or young child (context is needed for the most accurate translation) to the later stage, but now with both main infants and demon core fully absorbing primordial energy, he had no choice but to let them all advance together.

The process was dangerous and challenging. Lin Xuan was terrified at first, but there was no turning back once it reached this point. Knowing that a misstep could lead him astray, he gritted his teeth and went through with it.

But fortunately, the heavens were on his side. This difficult process went smoothly, and after a night of adjustment, both main infants and demon core successfully advanced to the later stage.

Perhaps this was what people meant by turning disaster into fortune.

Lin Xuan's face showed satisfaction. Regardless of how arduous the journey had been, the outcome was undoubtedly satisfactory.

Opening his eyes, Lin Xuan’s gaze shone with brilliance. Although no spiritual pressure emanated from him, Songyangmuyu and her two daughters sensed a subtle difference.

It was an intangible feeling, akin to facing the shark clan's disease—a mere shadow of its power.

Yet, the opponent was a veteran at the Dantian玄 (this term often refers to a mystical or supernatural concept, but without more context, it's hard to provide an exact translation) stage.

Indeed, Lin Xuan had successfully advanced both main infants and demon core. In terms of magical power, he no longer fell short of ordinary cultivators at the early Dantian玄 (this term often refers to a mystical or supernatural concept, but without more context, it's hard to provide an exact translation) stage. Of course, his lower realm still brought some disparity, but his cultivation techniques could compensate for it. With confidence, Lin Xuan was ready to face a veteran at the Dantian玄 (this term often refers to a mystical or supernatural concept, but without more context, it's hard to provide an exact translation) stage!
