There were many books in the Flying Heaven Pavilion's Book Collection Courtyard. These books included astronomy, geography, knowledge of foreign lands, rare treasures, and so on.
In short, these books had nothing to do with cultivation techniques and so on. However, they could increase one's knowledge and experience, as well as increase one's accumulation and foundation.
Knowledge was always a hidden power that could not be underestimated.
To use an analogy, in the Land of Five Elements, those who had sufficient understanding of the Land of Five Elements would often be able to discover more value. On the other hand, those who did not understand the Land of Five Elements would purely rely on luck.
There were many books in the Book Collection Courtyard. If one wanted to read all of them, it would take at least a few decades. Chu Mu could not possibly spend so much time here. Although he wanted to, he did not have the time. He could only choose what he urgently wanted to know.
Fortunately, although there were many books in the Book Collection Courtyard, they were also categorized. There were also introductions and so on, making it easier to find.
The Flying Heaven Pavilion had stood for many years. One could imagine the number of books in the Book Collection Courtyard. Chu Mu spent a full hour before he found the books related to the Land of Five Elements.
He took out the books and opened them in the Book Collection Courtyard.
Chu Mu read very carefully and memorized the contents without missing a word.
Strictly speaking, the Land of Five Elements did not belong to the West Tiger Territory. It belonged to the Archean World.
Usually, the Land of Five Elements was hidden in the Void of the Archean World. It absorbed the Power of Five Elements from the Void. When the barrier of the Land of Five Elements collided with the barrier of the Archean World to a certain extent, it would appear in that territory.
For the past few thousand years, the Land of Five Elements had been hidden in the Void of the West Tiger Territory. It moved slowly. Therefore, it appeared many times within the territory of the West Tiger Territory. That was why it was recognized as belonging to the West Tiger Territory.
Because the Land of Five Elements only absorbed the Power of Five Elements, it only contained the Power of Five Elements and the aura of the Five Elements. Everything was directly related to the Five Elements.
Within the Five Elements Domain, the power of the Five Elements would become very active and increase by at least 30%, while the other powers would be weakened by at least 10% and at most 30%.
If one were to comprehend the Power of the Five Elements in the Land of Five Elements, the efficiency would be several times higher than in the outside world. Of course, it was obviously unrealistic to comprehend the Power of the Five Elements in the Land of Five Elements, because each appearance of the Land of Five Elements was about three months. It was very short. Even if the efficiency of comprehension was several times higher than in the outside world, it would only be equivalent to two or three years of comprehension in the outside world.
Moreover, the purpose of entering the Land of Five Elements was for the Spirit Herbs, Spirit Ores, and other treasures of the Five Elements. There was simply no time to comprehend the power of the Five Elements.
If he had stayed in the Land of Five Elements, he would have been able to comprehend it for a long time. However, the problem was that once the Land of Five Elements was hidden in the void, it would encounter all kinds of terrible forces from the void storm. Even the powerful Sword Of Gojoseon would not be able to withstand it and would die directly.
As he flipped through the books, his understanding of the Land of Five Elements gradually deepened.
As he continued to flip through the books, Chu Mu came to the records of the Land of Five Elements.
The Land of Five Elements was formed when the Power of the Five Elements in the Land of Five Elements continuously absorbed the Qi of the Five Elements for more than ten thousand years. Finally, it took shape and continued to absorb the Power of the Five Elements to grow.
For example, the Land of Five Elements that Chu Mu had seen in the Land of Five Elements had existed for who knew how many tens of thousands of years.
According to the books, when the Power of the Land of Five Elements had accumulated to a certain extent, it would naturally give birth to a Five Elements Sacred Tree, and that Five Elements Sacred Tree would also grow a Five Elements Sacred Fruit.
Once the Five Elements Sacred Fruit matured, it would possess incredible power.
A matured Five Elements Sacred Fruit could be consumed directly, or it could be combined with other precious spiritual herbs to refine a Five Elements Sacred Pill. However, to refine a Five Elements Sacred Pill, one had to be at least an Alchemy Saint Master's alchemy attainments, and there was no guarantee of success. The higher one's alchemy attainments were, the higher the chance of success.
After refining a Five Elements Sacred Pill, the effect of the Five Elements Sacred Fruit would naturally increase exponentially. However, due to the high difficulty of refining and the fact that it could be consumed directly, the person who obtained the Five Elements Sacred Fruit had two choices.
There was a requirement to consume the Five Elements Sacred Fruit. One had to be in the Creation Realm. After comprehending the laws, the fruit's effect was that after consuming it, one could directly comprehend the Power of the Five Elements Rule and increase the level of the Power of the Five Elements Rule.
For example, a swordsman who had not comprehended the Power of the Five Elements Rule could comprehend the Power of the Five Elements Rule in a very short time after consuming the Five Elements Sacred Fruit. If one had already comprehended one or two of the Five Elements Rule, one could quickly comprehend the rest after consuming the fruit.
Moreover, for a period of time, the Power of the Five Elements Rule would increase in level until the power of the Five Elements Sacred Fruit was exhausted.
This effect alone was amazing. However, it was not all. After consuming the Five Elements Sacred Fruit, there was still a chance to comprehend the Five Elements Sword Skill.
The real Five Elements Sword Skill was not the same as the Five Elements Sword Skill that the Five Elements War Emperor had used. Although the real Five Elements Sword Skill was composed of the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire and earth, its power far exceeded that of a Five Elements Sword Skill. It had reached a higher level.
If the Five Elements War Emperor had been able to display the real Five Elements Sword Skill, even the Five Unique of the West Tiger would not have been a match for him.
"Although the Five Elements Sacred Fruit is good, it is not meant for me. I'd better check the Five Elements Sign," Chu Mu thought to himself.
As he continued to flip through the books, Chu Mu finally found a more detailed record of the Five Elements Sign.
After the Five Elements Sacred Fruit was born, only the Origin of the Five Elements Sign was left. As long as the Origin was there, it would slowly recover and grow stronger by absorbing the Power of the Five Elements.
The Five Elements Sign had their own characteristics. After obtaining the Origin of the Five Elements Sign, one could refine it and integrate it into the body.
Refining the Origin of Metal could make one's attacks sharper, capable of cutting through anything. Its sharpness could even harm one's Spiritual World. Refining the Origin of Wood could make one's life force stronger, greatly increasing one's lifespan and giving one an amazing self-healing ability. Refining the Origin of Water could make one's body as flexible as water, full of toughness. Any attack that landed on it would be greatly weakened, and it would also give one a certain degree of self-healing ability. Refining the Origin of Fire could give one the ability to explode like flames. Every attack would be accompanied by terrifying heat and explosive power, causing extremely terrifying damage and burning to ashes. Refining the Origin of Earth could give one a huge boost in strength, making one's attacks heavier like mountains. Moreover, because of the Origin of Earth, one's body would have an amazing defensive ability, able to withstand powerful attacks without breaking.
In short, each Origin of the Five Elements Sign had an incredible ability. After refining it for one's own use, it would make one's body even stronger.
This book also recorded the method to refine the Origin of the Five Elements Signs. It didn't seem difficult. The difficult part was obtaining the Origin of the Five Elements.
According to reason, in the entire Ancient World, there were more than just a few Origin of the Five Elements Signs. There were definitely more, but they were very few. Furthermore, obtaining them wasn't easy.
After obtaining the information he wanted, Chu Mu left the Book Collection Courtyard and quickly returned to the Skysoar Courtyard. He entered his own Stone Pavilion and began his seclusion.
His goal was to refine the Origin of Wood.
From his spatial ring, he took out a foot tall sapling. It emitted a dense and lively life force and immediately made Chu Mu feel extremely comfortable. It was as if his entire body was soaked in life force. It was warm and indescribably comfortable.
After waking up, Chu Mu forced out a drop of essence blood from his body. His Spiritual Sense fused with this drop of essence blood, constantly permeating it and fusing with it.
Then, this drop of essence blood dripped onto the Origin of Wood. It flowed and spread throughout the sapling, from the top to the bottom, from the leaves to the branches, and then converged to the main trunk, all the way to the roots.
Then, under the urging of Chu Mu's tyrannical Spiritual Sense, the essence blood seeped into the Origin of Wood bit by bit. This was a difficult process.
The process of refining the Origin of Wood didn't require any special hand seals, nor did it require any special incantations. It just needed to fuse the essence blood with Spiritual Sense.
But during the process, it would encounter resistance from the Origin of Wood.
This was the origin of the Origin of Wood. Although it didn't have consciousness or intelligence, it had a trace of instinct. It was resisting Chu Mu's Spiritual Sense and essence blood. It seemed to understand that once Chu Mu's essence blood and Spiritual Sense seeped into it, it would become Chu Mu's vassal. It would no longer be able to maintain its independence.
If it remained independent and continued to absorb Wood Element energy, after a long period of time, it would continue to grow. It would be like before, gaining intelligence and consciousness. In the end, it might even become an independent and unique life form that existed in the Ancient Age.
The Origin of Wood's instinct was resisting Chu Mu's Spiritual Sense and essence blood.
There were records of this in the books, so Chu Mu was mentally prepared from the beginning. He was prepared to fight against the Origin of Wood's instinct for a long period of time.
Time passed bit by bit. In the end, Chu Mu's Spiritual Sense was stronger. Under his efforts, the essence blood that permeated the surface of the Origin of Wood slowly seeped in. More than half of it had already seeped into the Origin of Wood.
Every time a trace of essence blood seeped in, the Origin of Wood's resistance would weaken a little. Under this situation, Chu Mu's efficiency of refining the Origin of Wood was constantly increasing.
When the last trace of essence blood seeped into the Origin of Wood, the Origin of Wood trembled slightly. A blood-red color flashed and it returned to its original color. Chu Mu had a feeling that there was a deeper connection between him and the Origin of Wood, as if it had been separated from his body.
With a thought, the Origin of Wood turned into a green light. It circled around Chu Mu once before shooting towards Chu Mu's chest, where his heart was. In the blink of an eye, it merged into Chu Mu's body.
