The most important step in the Golden Core Realm was to temper one's Natal Mystic Light. This was because the Mystic Light was the key to forming the Golden Core and nurturing the Primordial Spirit. Similarly, the Mystic Light also corresponded to the fundamental cultivation method of every cultivator.
This feather-robed cultivator cultivated all five elements at the same time. It wasn't that this path was impossible, but compared to other cultivators, this path was much more difficult. The amount of energy required was several times that of others. Thus, this cultivator thought of the Avatar Technique. He used the five spirits of the same origin to strengthen his own origin. Five dragons, five spirits, five spirits, and so on …
When Old Man Zhou saw the green light shooting towards him, he quickly dodged it. This was the Wood Element Spirit Light. It was full of vitality and was the bane of ghost immortals like him.
In other words, if the Five Elements Mystic Light was used well, it could restrain Mr. Zhou. Wood's vitality, fire's heat, earth's slumber, metal's killing intent, and water's purification. Mr. Zhou had to avoid each and every one of them.
However, Old Man Zhou relied on the power of the formation to teleport within the formation and entangled the cultivator, making it impossible for him to move.
"There seems to be something special about this formation!" The feather-robed cultivator fought with Mr. Zhou's Ghost Dao Divine Art while searching for the core of the array. Just as he was about to rush in, he was suddenly sent to Mr. Zhou's side by a powerful force. Mr. Zhou's Xuan Ming Seal landed on him.
With a wave of the scarlet spirit light, Mr. Zhou's netherworld energy was dissolved. At the same time, the other three avatars also felt the force from within, sending them to the core of the array.
This array was personally arranged by Lord Bailu because he didn't like to kill. The entire array focused on the word 'defense'. As the enemy approached the core of the array, he could use the soft power of water to push them away. Instead of killing, he would use the force of water to constantly send the enemy to the core of the array. This was Lord Bailu's method of subduing the enemy without a fight. If Lord Bailu still had his divine power, he was confident that he could deal with this daoist cultivator alone and block him outside Bai Ming Mountain.
Currently, Jiang Yuanchen was controlling it. With the help of the divine crystals left by Lord Bailu, he could exert 70% of its power. Coupled with the water absorption function of the Myriad Rivers Converging Array, it wasn't much weaker than the original array. Apart from the feather-robed cultivator, Jiang Yuanchen had some confidence in dealing with the other three avatars.
It was obvious that the incarnation of the Golden Musk Deer had not been refined for a long time. The Fire Camel was suppressed by the water element formation, and the Lake God was willing to consume his natal divine power without hesitation.
Suppression. This was another use of Lord Bailu's formation. Those who entered the array in advance and were captured by the array master to be stored in the array would naturally not be suppressed by the array. However, as long as other people entered the array, they would feel a huge water pressure. This was the suppression of the Bai Ming blessed land's spirit vein.
That was why Jiang Yuanchen arranged for Mu Qingyi to stay in the west. Even if she couldn't defeat the avatars, she could at least protect herself. Fire Camel had to resist the water pressure of the entire array while resisting the rejection of the water elemental yuan qi. He also had to interrupt the absorption of divine power by the Lake God. That was why he was trapped. The only thing he could rely on was the Red Flame Banner. He didn't dare to destroy it easily.
The real problem was this green bull! Jiang Yuanchen's fingers traced the lines on Hetu. The ten lines flickered with light. Fifty-five light dots combined to form the pattern of the Yin Yang Fish. Under Jiang Yuanchen's control, he deduced the origin of the green bull.
The green bull was a wood spirit. Most of it was transformed from a thousand-year-old spirit pine, but there were also some that were naturally born from wood-elemental spirit jades or natural yuan qi. With Hetu's deduction ability, Jiang Yuanchen finally figured out the origin of the green bull. A 1,300-year-old pine tree that was struck by lightning and transformed!
Now that he knew this, everything would be easy. Jiang Yuanchen heaved a sigh of relief. He said to himself, "Thunder is the cardinal of heaven and earth. Even though it is transformed with the help of lightning, how can a wood spirit not be afraid of the Heavenly Thunder?" Jiang Yuanchen took out three thunder pearls and stuck a talisman on them. He sent them to the Left Guardian.
He spoke to the two Guardians, "Cast the Thunder Technique. If the two of you work together to control the Taixu Thunder, together with my three gold thunder pearls, you should be able to hold him back."
The Guardians of Taixu Taoism walked the path of incense but they were also proficient in the Daoist techniques of Taixu Taoism. Slaying demons and devils was to protect the true disciples of Taixu Taoism. Against demons and devils, the Thunder Technique was one of the most effective Daoist techniques. That was why every Guardian was proficient in the Thunder Technique. Other than the Taixu Dharmic Thunder, the two Guardians could also cast the Wuji Heavenly Thunder together.
Jiang Yuanchen looked at the Yimu Green Bull. Under the attacks of the two Guardians' Thunder Technique, the Green Bull kept dodging. The bull roared and the sound waves detonated the thunder that was close to it. The Left Guardian shouted and the golden sword in his hand slashed down. At the same time, a gold thunder pearl slid down from the sword and hit the Green Bull.
The Green Bull saw that the gold thunder pearl was detonated and knew that it could not dodge it. It avoided the horn on its head and took the blow with its body.
"Eh?" Jiang Yuanchen, who was in the center of the array, saw the situation in the east and was surprised. He saw the Fire Camel spit out the inner core and wanted to fly to the island in the center of the array. Jiang Yuanchen controlled the Hetu and another wave pushed the Fire Camel back to its original position.
Then, Jiang Yuanchen cast the Thunder Technique and hit the Fire Camel on the head of the Fire Camel with the Wuji Heavenly Thunder. With the other hand, he took out a gold pearl fragment and sent it to the Left Guardian.
"Take this and throw it at the Green Bull's horn when the opportunity arises. It might be able to restrain it." The gold fragment Jiang Yuanchen had was one of the two Connate Spirit Pearl fragments he had obtained in the Black Pool Mountain. According to Master Xun, it could even break the body of a Golden Core Cultivator.
Even if the Green Bull was a Golden Core Spirit Beast, the fragment was a fragment of the Connate Gold Mystic Pearl and was formed by Connate Gold Qi. Metal could restrain wood and the Green Bull's horn was a weakness.
The Hundred Fruit Deity and the Grass Deity were dumbfounded as they watched Jiang Yuanchen busy controlling the battle.
"Elder Zhou, hold onto my Lunar Spirit Banner. I'll use the Lunar True Water to assist you in casting your spell. Stall this feather-robed cultivator and see if you can force him to use his fourth mystic light."
Although the Feather Cultivator was playing hide-and-seek with Mr. Zhou, he had only used the wood, fire, and metal mystic lights. The metal element mystic light was not complete yet. In other words, he had only used the wood and fire elements because the Fire Camel and the young man had become Golden Core Spirit Beasts.
Jiang Yuanchen was worried about the Feather Cultivator's actions. If there were only three spirit beast clones, why did the Feather Cultivator enter from the north? Did he want to slowly explore the array core? Why didn't he calculate the location of the array core from the outside and directly break it from the sky?
If the Feather Cultivator broke it from the sky, although it would take time and energy, it was better than being entangled, right? Therefore, Jiang Yuanchen wanted to test whether the Feather Cultivator's fourth clone still existed.
"Junior Sister, use the Sky Moon Silver Belt to trap the Golden Musk Deer and ignore his attack," Jiang Yuanchen said to the Lake Deity in the south, "Lure the Fire Camel three steps to the left."
Then, seeing that both sides were ready, Jiang Yuanchen opened a water passage and sent the golden blade spat out by the Golden Musk Deer to the top of the Fire Camel's head, almost cutting off its hump.
The Feather Cultivator who was controlling the three clones was stunned, and Mr. Zhou barely won by using Xuanming Ghost Qi to contaminate one of his artifacts.
"Interesting! This formation can actually be used like this? " The Feather Cultivator looked at the Lunar True Water in the sky and was about to cast a spell to break it, but he hesitated for a moment before using the wood element spiritual light to dissolve the True Water.
Jiang Yuanchen's eyes flashed. So this is the instinct of a Five Elements Cultivator! The first choice to restrain the Lunar True Water should be the Earth Element! Was that hesitation because he was worried about exposing his fourth mystic light? Jiang Yuanchen seemed to be calculating a new way to defend against the enemy with the help of Hetu.
"Amazing, truly amazing!" The Hundred Fruit God was in awe. This was the first time she had seen someone do this. As expected of the direct disciple of the Taixu Taoism. She had thought that the Taixu Taoism was just playing along. But now, it seems that under Daoist Jiang's control, we can protect the Mountain Lord?
Observing the battle from all sides and adapting to the situation!
The Grass God's temperament was not as good as the Hundred Fruit God's. Seeing that Jiang Yuanchen was in control of the situation, the shock on his face was unmistakable.
"You two, don't just sit around." Jiang Yuanchen was busy observing the battle from all sides, using the power of the array to resist the enemy's attack. The plate of divine crystals in front of him was used up in the blink of an eye.
"Hundred Fruit God, go get some more divine crystals. Grass God, go ask Lu Jun for a branch of poplar wood."
"Oh, right!" Just as the two were about to leave, Jiang Yuanchen said, "I know that the plant spirits have integrated their power into the array. You two go tell them not to sacrifice their lives to protect the array."
Hearing this, the Hundred Fruit God trembled. This guy even knew this?
Why was Jiang Yuanchen able to operate the array with such ease, and its power was no weaker than Bailu Jun's? Wasn't it just the hundreds of demon spirits from Mount Bailu working together to send their magic power into the array? Demon spirits were pure by nature, and some of the older ones had already made up their minds to protect their benefactor, Bailu Jun, with their lives.
"Divide these demon spirits into three waves and send their magic power into the array in batches." Jiang Yuanchen came up with an idea. Letting the demon spirits take turns would give them a break, and then he continued to deal with the Eastern Green Ox.
Just now, the Right Protector almost hit the Azure Ox's horn with the Profound Gold Bead fragment. Unfortunately, the Azure Ox felt the threat of the Right Protector and narrowly avoided it.
"What a pity," Jiang Yuanchen said in annoyance, then began to control the array to create a pile of Gui Water lightning.
The Hundred Fruit God took out a few dozen more divine crystals, a pained expression on her face. Meanwhile, the Grass God cut off a branch from the poplar tree. There were a few dozen emerald leaves on the branch, each of which contained Bailu Jun's stored divine power.
"You two take three divine crystals each, then put the rest on the Golden Book of Mountains and Rivers to provide me with a source of magic power."
The Mountain River Patrol's greatest strength was against divine spirits. The Golden Book of Mountains and Rivers could be seen as their virtual divine seal. Through the golden book, they could communicate with the dao sect's natal seal and use its power to suppress divine spirits.
Because most of the true disciples were immortal cultivators, in order to let them use the Golden Book of Mountains and Rivers, there was a special array to convert divine power and immortal energy. Similarly, if the divine crystals were sent into the array, they could also be turned into Jiang Yuanchen's magic power.
"In a while, there will be a sneak attack from the Jade Goat in the sky. When the time comes, the two of you use the first and second wood spiritual Qi to create the poplar branches and directly hit the Jade Goat's head."
Since he was sure that the feather-robed cultivator had hidden the fourth light, Jiang Yuanchen naturally had to prepare for the Jade Goat's attack from the sky.
As expected, after a while, the feather-robed cultivator felt that the talismans he had buried near Bai Ming Mountain hadn't been activated, so he knew that no divine spirit had arrived yet.
"In other words, the talismans I set up and the method to conceal the heavenly secrets really worked?" With a thought, the feather-robed cultivator had the last Jade Goat unfurl a yellow flag and shoot a yellow light downward to break the array.
"Do it!" Jiang Yuanchen ordered the Hundred Fruit God and the Hundred Fruit God while he continued to use Hetu to plot something else.
The poplar branches strengthened by the first and second wood spiritual Qi swung at the Jade Goat.
The Jade Goat's cultivation was only a hair's breadth away from Golden Core, but this hair's breadth was enough to determine that it was no match for the Hundred Fruit God and the Grass God.
The Jade Goat let out a mournful cry and another scroll flew out from its back. The Eastern Green Ox suddenly shook and a green-wood flag flew out of its horn. The Southern Fire Camel's red flame flag fluttered in the wind. The Western Golden Musk also took out a white flag. The feather-robed cultivator laughed heartily and took out the black water flag.
"The Five Elements Array is complete! Fellow Daoist, what can you do now? Taoist priest, you're also a Daoist cultivator, why don't you retreat? "The feather-robed cultivator said to Jiang Yuanchen in the heart of the array. Jiang Yuanchen made the arrangements in the middle, but he also exposed all kinds of methods to let the feather-robed cultivator see through his cultivation method.
The five flags were connected, and the Five Elements Qi started surging in the white fog array. The Hundred Fruit God and the Grass God looked terrified, but Jiang Yuanchen finally smiled. "Yes, it's finally done." As soon as he said this, the array changed again!
