Chapter 178 All Five Elements
Zhen Yuanzi seemed to transform into a divine weapon that had undergone countless trials and tribulations, feeling the purity of "gold"—removing the dross and retaining the essence, making it indestructible; feeling the chilling power of "gold"—the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, judging all things.
I also felt the stability and definition of "gold" – it defines territory, protects order, and is like the skeleton of the earth, supporting the framework of the entire world.
The metal element power of the Western Plain Cloud Banner, once it entered Zhen Yuanzi's body, created a more complex interaction with his original earth, fire, and water elements.
"Earth can generate metal!" Guided by Zhen Yuanzi's thoughts, the pure essence of the earth naturally began to nurture and give birth to a purer and sharper metal element.
Like mineral deposits nurtured deep within the earth, refined over time, they eventually transform into dazzling metal. This makes his defenses more than just thick earthen walls; they possess a metallic resilience and sharpness, capable of both strength and flexibility.
"Fire can overcome metal, but true gold also needs to be refined by fire!" He manipulated a wisp of southern fire, carefully scorching and tempering the newly formed metal element. Under the forging of this fire, impurities in the metal element were removed, making it purer and more refined, its "sharpness" and "strength" enhanced.
Its characteristics have been brought to their fullest potential.
At the same time, the tempered metal element energy also absorbed some of the fire element essence, acquiring a trace of scorching heat, thus increasing its power.
"Metal can generate water!" When the pure metal element energy condensed to a certain degree, Zhen Yuanzi had a sudden inspiration and tried to guide it to come into contact with the power of the northern mysterious water.
Under certain conditions, the austere and restrained metallic energy can give rise to wisps of extremely yin and cold Geng metal divine water, which is sharp and cold, possessing the dual characteristics of metal and water, and is mysterious and extraordinary.
Refining the Western Plain Cloud Banner allowed Zhen Yuanzi to reach a new level of understanding of the Great Dao of "Gold".
More importantly, he successfully introduced the element of "metal" into the cycle of "earth, water, and fire", and initially built a more complex four-element cycle system of "earth generates metal, metal generates water, water nourishes earth, and fire refines metal"!
His magical power and foundation became more stable and refined, carrying an inviolable aura of authority and the power of order.
The plain-colored cloud-shaped banner also transformed into a beam of white light and merged into the body.
At this point, four of the five elements have been obtained, with only the final Eastern Azure Lotus Banner remaining.
The main element of this flag is "wood," which represents vitality, growth, expansion, and compassion.
Zhen Yuanzi held his breath and focused his mind, adjusting himself to his peak condition. Finally, he pointed his finger at the gleaming blue banner that seemed to have a floating blue lotus image.
"Buzz—"
A vast and boundless Daoist aura, brimming with vitality and prosperity, flowed gently yet irresistibly into Zhen Yuanzi's body, like a spring breeze sweeping across frozen earth or a gentle rain nourishing the desert.
At this moment, Zhen Yuanzi seemed to transform into a seed, breaking through the shell under the nourishment of the thick soil, feeling the warmth of the sun (fire), the moisture of the rain (water), and the trace elements and support provided by the metal (metal), finally stretching out its branches and leaves, growing strong, and bearing fruit.
He felt the vitality of "wood"—unyielding and ever-renewing; he felt the expansiveness of "wood"—flowing freely and unobstructed; he felt the compassion of "wood"—purifying the air, providing shade, and nourishing all things.
The wood element power of the Eastern Azure Lotus Treasure Banner, like the final catalyst, immediately triggered earth-shattering changes once it entered the already nascent four-element cycle system of earth, fire, water, and metal!
"Wood can overcome earth, but its roots can also stabilize the earth!" The vitality of the wood element permeates the earth, not to destroy it, but to firmly grasp the soil with its root system, preventing water and soil erosion, making the earth element more stable and full of vitality.
The once heavy earth seemed to be draped in green, becoming vibrant with life.
"Wood can fuel fire!" The vigorous wood element naturally became the best fuel for the fire, making the fire element power more vigorous and lasting, and carrying a warm feeling of burning life, rather than simple destruction.
"Water nourishes wood!" The power of the northern Xuan Water has found its most direct outlet. The gentle water nourishes the vitality of the wood element, making the grass and trees lush and verdant. In turn, the abundant vegetation can better conserve water resources.
"Metal can overcome wood, but it is also the skeleton of wood!" The austere energy of metal can prune away the superfluous branches and leaves of trees, making them grow stronger and more robust. The rules and framework represented by metal also make the growth of wood more orderly, rather than chaotic.
The most crucial element, the addition of "wood," completely connects the entire cycle of the five elements!
Earth generates metal → metal generates water → water generates wood + wood generates fire + fire generates earth + earth generates metal again. A perfect, endless, and cyclical chain of mutual generation of the five elements is completely formed within Zhen Yuanzi's body!
At the same time, the principle of mutual restraint among the five elements does not disappear, but rather exists as an inherent regulatory and balancing mechanism within this cycle.
This ensures that the entire system does not collapse due to the excess of one side, and always maintains a dynamic and healthy balance.
"The moment the Five Elements Cycle was fully formed, a dazzling five-colored divine light suddenly erupted from Zhen Yuanzi's body!"
The five colors of light—blue, red, yellow, white, and black—intertwined and flowed, forming a huge, slowly rotating halo of the five elements that enveloped him.
Inside the quiet room, golden lotuses sprouted from the ground, sweet rain fell from the sky, and fragrance filled the air, as if celebrating the birth of a perfect Dao!
The phantoms of the five Primordial Five Directions Flags appeared behind him, connected end to end, forming a perfect circle, exuding an unparalleled aura that could stabilize the universe, isolate all heavens, and be impervious to all laws!
Thus, the Five Primordial Banners were finally completely refined by Zhen Yuanzi, and the Five Elements Great Dao was perfectly formed and formed its own cycle!
Zhen Yuanzi slowly opened his eyes, and a fleeting image of the birth and death of the five elements and the evolution of chaos seemed to flash in his eyes.
He felt an unprecedented, harmonious, and powerful force within him, a force brimming with vitality and change, and a strong sense of confidence welled up within him.
The perfection of the Five Elements not only means that he has gained a set of top-tier defensive treasures from the primordial world, but also that the foundation of his Chaos Dao of the Earth has been thoroughly solidified and completed!
Based on this, the path of incorporating the five elements and deriving chaos will become clearer and smoother.
His magical power, spiritual awareness, affinity for and control over the Great Dao all rose accordingly, reaching a completely new level.
This secluded cultivation of treasures yielded far more results than expected. Zhen Yuanzi knew that upon emerging from seclusion, his strength would undergo a qualitative leap, truly possessing the substantial resources to establish himself, compete, and ultimately pursue transcendence amidst the initial calamity of the Dragon-Han era and even greater storms to come!
He smiled slightly, closed his eyes again, and began to consolidate this hard-won state of perfect five elements, attempting to integrate it more deeply with his fundamental cultivation technique, the "Earth Chaos Scripture".
