He Yiming shook his head and threw this thought away. He asked in a deep voice, "Father, has Lixun returned?"
He had been in Hengshan for more than half a year. Yuan Lixun had gone home to visit her family. Logically speaking, she should have returned long ago. It was not surprising that she went to Hengshan to see him.
However, among the relatives who came out to welcome him, he only saw his fourth sister, He Yiling, and his fourth brother-in-law, Yuan Liling. He did not see her. Even in the hustle and bustle of the night, he did not see the figure he had been looking forward to. He was naturally worried.
He Quanxin was startled and said in confusion, "Yiming, Hengshan's Grand Elder Yu Jinglei sent a letter. He said that Lixun had offended a powerful faction. When you were not by her side, they were afraid that they would come to cause trouble for Lixun. So, they sent her to Tianchi Mountain with them."
He Yiming's heart trembled. He said in a deep voice, "Father, is it really Grand Elder Yu Jinglei's words?"
"That's right. Lixun went with Senior Xu Chengzhang. It shouldn't be fake."
Only then did He Yiming calm down. He frowned slightly and vaguely felt that something was not quite right. He thought about how Zhu Baqi and Yu Jinglei seemed to be trying to get him to Tianchi Mountain. Could it be related to this matter?
However, since she was traveling with Xu Chengzhang, at least her safety was guaranteed. He Yiming immediately thought of Tufan country. Could it be that they had received some news that the people of Tufan country wanted to take revenge on Lixun? That was why they took her to Tianchi Mountain.
Seeing He Yiming frowning and not speaking, He Quanxin was a little nervous. He asked, "Yiming, what's wrong? Is there something wrong? "
His expression was grave. He Yiming was the pillar of He Family Village, but Yu Jinglei was the Grand Elder of Hengshan. If there was a misunderstanding, He Family Village would never have the glory it had today.
He Yiming shook his head and said, "It's nothing, Father. I'll stay here for two days, then I'll head to Tianchi Mountain. I'll be able to meet Lixun then, so I'm a little happy."
Although He Quanxin didn't believe it, his son's identity was different now. He could only suppress his doubts and pretend that he didn't know.
The father and son discussed for half the night. He Yiming already had a rough idea of what had happened in the manor.
Other than Fourth Sister and Yuan Liling getting married half a year later, everything else was normal.
Although the fiends on the outer walls had made the He Clan Manor's reputation a little bad, it had also saved the He Clan a lot of trouble, allowing the entire clan to slowly take root here and gradually grow stronger.
Since everything was on track, He Yiming felt relieved.
Late at night, He Yiming returned to his room.
In the past, whenever he returned, Yuan Lixun would come out to greet him. However, now that he was alone, he missed her even more.
He wanted to ask Zhu Baqi and Yu Xichen, but after pondering for a while, he finally gave up on the idea.
Since they were heading to Tianchi Mountain, there was no need to ask since the date of their meeting was not far away.
Arriving at the courtyard, He Yiming raised his head to look at the sky. His thoughts were immediately occupied by the experiences in the back hall of the Ancestral Hall.
After reading the experiences of the experts of the past, He Yiming had already determined the direction of his cultivation.
According to the narration of the experts of the past, once the first flower was successfully condensed, the difficulty of condensing the second and third flowers would increase exponentially.
For generations in Hengshan, there had never been a gap in the number of experts in One-Line-Sky. However, there were only three experts at the level of Three Flowers at One's Prominence, including the founder. From this, it could be seen how difficult it was to condense the third flower and successfully condense it.
However, the predecessors of the past had also summed up some feasible experiences.
If one had already condensed one of the Five Elemental Dao's tangible flowers, and if one had the talent to complement it, then the difficulty of condensing the next tangible flower would be greatly reduced.
Now that He Yiming had condensed the two flowers of wind and fire, the Flower of Wind was naturally ethereal and not part of the Five Elements, but the Flower of Fire was part of the Five Elements.
Fire could give birth to earth, so the next Flower of Five Elements that He Yiming wanted to try to condense would undoubtedly be the Flower of Earth.
At this time, standing outside the courtyard where he lived, He Yiming slowly opened a secret manual in front of him.
Crouching Earth Seal, Overturning Sky Seal, Raising Sky Seal.
These three handprint techniques were secretly passed down from the Lin family, but He Yiming used to like the wind, rain, cloud, and mist techniques, so he did not take them seriously.
But now that he had set his sights on the Flower of Earth, and more importantly, after seeing the Red Wolf King and the Strange Snake King's ability to drill into the ground, He Yiming was envious. Therefore, he took out this Innate Earth Technique and slowly explored it.
In fact, in Hengshan, there were many Innate Earth Techniques, but He Yiming had a special liking for handprint techniques, so he did not choose another one.
In the Lin family, there were a total of five Innate Handprint Techniques, two of which were Water Techniques, and three of which were Earth Techniques. Among them, He Yiming had already learned the Crouching Earth Technique, and had made some improvements to it. As for the other two handprints, it was the first time he came into contact with them.
He Yiming's gaze slowly moved across the secret manual as he read the contents word by word.
Slowly, He Yiming's brows furrowed.
Now that he had condensed two flowers, and after the systematic study in the back hall of the Ancestral Hall, although his strength had not improved much, his knowledge of martial arts was not the same as before.
After carefully reading the cultivation methods and Qi circulation routes of these three handprint techniques, He Yiming faintly felt that these techniques seemed to be similar to the three types of techniques practiced by Mu Zhanhao, the grandson of Mu Jintian.
Moreover, the three types of techniques practiced by Mu Zhanhao were not only of the same origin, but they were also good at handprint techniques, which made He Yiming even more suspicious.
He compared the handprint techniques practiced by Mu Zhanhao with the three handprints in the secret manual.
He Yiming could even feel that these techniques might have come from the same source.
He clearly remembered that Mu Zhanhao had once said that his techniques were passed down from a sect called the Five Elements Sect in the Great Shen Empire of the East.
Just by hearing the name, one could imagine that in this sect, there must be a Five Elements Technique, and it was very likely that they were of the same origin.
As long as it was a Cultivation Technique of the same origin, when used, the power exerted would definitely far exceed the limit of an ordinary Xiantian Cultivation Technique.
For a person with a special physique like him, it was the most suitable Cultivation Technique. If he could obtain the unique Cultivation Technique of the Five Elements Sect …
He Yiming shook his head slightly, and threw away this unrealistic thought.
He refocused his attention on the secret manual in front of him.
After a long time, He Yiming finally comprehended something. Among the three Earth Elemental Handprint Techniques, the Crouching Earth Technique was undoubtedly the simplest. This technique focused on defense, as long as one had a certain amount of talent, even a Houtian Master could barely use it.
Of course, it could only be used. As for how much power could be exerted, that was something that could not be demanded.
Just like how ordinary people used kitchen knives, choppers and scissors, they were all blades. But if these blades were compared to the large glaive that 108 had transformed into, it would be a pure joke.
When the same combat skill was used by different people, the effect would be completely different.
Other than the Crouching Earth Technique, there was also the Overturning Sky Technique and the Raising Sky Technique.
These two Handprint Techniques were clearly much more profound. Even He Yiming could not completely understand them in a short period of time. At this point, he finally understood why the Lin Family would be so generous as to share these Handprint Techniques with him.
It was estimated that in the entire Lin Family's thousand years of inheritance, there was no one who could understand these two profound Handprint Techniques.
He Yiming softly chanted the incantation of these two Handprint Techniques. He half closed his eyes, and raised his hands, slowly dancing along a strange arc in the air.
His movements were not fast, and were not as elegant as before when he transformed into clouds and mist. Instead, they were steady and steady, like a high mountain that would never collapse.
Slowly, a strange scene appeared in He Yiming's mind.
He seemed to be in the middle of a mountain range. Everywhere he looked, there was a stretch of undulating, majestic mountain peaks. These peaks were connected to each other, forming a magnificent, indescribable spectacle.
He Yiming's hands were also moving up and down. This range was actually exactly the same as the range of the undulating mountain in his mind.
It was as if his entire body had turned into a huge mountain peak that reached into the clouds, and his hands had transformed into a continuous mountain range that surrounded the huge mountain peak.
The scenery in his mind was constantly changing. At this moment, He Yiming thought of the mountain peaks and huge rocks.
In the depths of the mountains, every single peak had its own uniqueness. Some were like sharp swords that pierced the heavens, some were like jade pillars that supported the heavens, and there were even some that were like solemn old men that stood in the sky and looked down on the earth. There were even some that were like shy young girls that used white clouds as a veil to cover their beautiful faces.
For a moment, the countless strange scenery in the mountain forest spun in He Yiming's mind.
And he himself maintained this mysterious state. His body moved slowly along with his consciousness. No matter what kind of mountain peak appeared in his mind, he could express the meaning of this scenery through his body movements.
The corner of his mouth contained a faint smile. It was a kind of high and mighty smile that seemed to be in control of everything.
After a long time, He Yiming's body trembled. He let go of his hands and slowly pushed out.
In his hands, there seemed to be a force of ten thousand kilograms. Even the surrounding air seemed to be imprisoned by some kind of power, and there was no longer a trace of wind circulating.
In the distance, in a luxurious courtyard, Zhu Baqi looked in this direction with a dignified expression.
With his cultivation base, he was naturally able to sense the powerful Earth Energy that permeated the void.
Although he did not see He Yiming's cultivation process with his own eyes, through the fluctuation of the aura, it did not seem to be much different from seeing it with his own eyes.
He could feel that this was a familiar yet unfamiliar aura.
The reason why it was familiar was because he had firmly remembered the aura of the genius young man. Although that person was young, there was no doubt about his strength. Zhu Baqi even had a hunch that as long as He Yiming did not fall, there would be a place for him among the top figures in the world in the future.
As for the unfamiliar feeling, it was naturally because of the cultivation method that He Yiming cultivated.
In the last battle, he had experienced the power of wind and the power of fire. The strength of these two forces gave him an irresistible feeling.
This was the fear that surged when facing an expert of the same level. It could be seen how powerful He Yiming's attainments in these two types of cultivation methods were.
However, what he sensed at this time was clearly the power of earth.
That dignified and thick feeling was like a huge mountain pressing heavily on his heart. Unknowingly, Zhu Baqi was deeply affected. Even his knees seemed to be slightly bent.
This was also because his strength was too strong, and he had a Two Flower cultivation. Apart from him, even Yu Xichen, an Innate Expert, did not have a similar feeling.
He took a deep breath and tried his best to control the almost boiling aura in his body. He was unwilling to fight against He Yiming's aura. In other words, in his heart, he was already afraid …
He could not muster up the courage to fight against He Yiming.
A helpless and bitter smile appeared on his face. He Yiming's strength was certainly beyond his expectations, but what made him feel even more terrified was the speed of He Yiming's progress, which was truly inconceivable.
The Flower of Wind, the Flower of Fire, and now the dignified power of earth seemed to be rapidly improving. He Yiming was making great strides towards the Three Flower Realm.
Perhaps, within ten years, he would be able to comprehend the Flower of Earth.
Even ten years later, He Yiming would not be 30 years old. To have already condensed the Three Flower Realm at this age, even if he had not yet reached the Acupoint Realm, he was still a legend that surpassed all the predecessors.
Zhu Baqi's gaze gradually became complicated. In his heart, he finally made up his mind. When he returned, he must truthfully report his feelings about He Yiming. Although he did not know what those old fellows were selling in their gourds, he hoped that they would not go too far with He Yiming …
※ ※ ※
He Yiming, who was completely immersed in his own world, did not know how much trouble his cultivation had brought to Zhu Baqi.
When he let out a long breath and withdrew his palm, which seemed to have the power of ten thousand pounds, his heart was filled with joy.
The Crouching Earth Print …
This was the real Crouching Earth Print. It turned out that this print technique, which looked extremely simple and purely defensive, actually had such incredible power.
In comparison, the Crouching Earth Print that Lin Taoli had used in the past was simply a child's play. He had not even grasped one percent of its essence.
However, this could not be blamed on him. After all, Lin Taoli was only a Houtian cultivator and had not even reached the Xiantian Realm. How could he exert the true power of this print technique?
It was already amazing that he could grasp a little bit of this print technique in the Houtian Realm.
He sighed deeply. These magical handprint techniques had fallen into the hands of the Lin family. It was simply a waste of God's gifts. However, what made him feel strange was, how did the Lin Clan get hold of these profound hand seals?
He shook his head, threw away all the distracting thoughts, and once again began to recite the formula of the Atlas Heaven Print.
Among these three earth attribute handprint techniques, the Crouching Earth Print was a completely defensive handprint, the Overturning Heaven Print was a completely offensive handprint, and the Atlas Heaven Print was an offensive and defensive handprint technique.
With He Yiming's character, he actually liked the Atlas Heaven Print the most.
While reciting the formula of this print technique, He Yiming's palm moved again.
However, what was different from before was that his palm didn't transform into undulating peaks. Instead, it was placed vertically in front of his chest. His entire body was as still as a mountain, as if he was an old monk in meditation. There was no more movement from him.
However, around his body, there were circles of earth attribute power that could not be seen with the naked eye.
These Qi of Heaven and Earth were attracted by his technique and gathered around him, as if to merge into his body and become a part of him.
He Yiming's spirit was blessed, and his spirit was highly concentrated, quietly perceiving the changes around his body at this moment.
The earth attribute power was greatly attracted, and there was a tendency to condense and compress. He Yiming's third flower might appear today if he could really absorb this earth attribute power for his own use and condense it successfully.
His breathing could not help but quicken, and the ecstasy in his heart was simply incomparable.
This situation was not intentional, but was completely in a state of ignorance and unconsciousness, which was why he was able to gather such a huge amount of earth attribute power of Heaven and Earth.
If he had done it intentionally, he would not have been able to achieve such a powerful effect.
He Yiming calmed down, and based on his experience of condensing the Flower of Wind and the Flower of Fire in the past, he stabilized his mind and began to release the fire power, which slowly came into contact with the earth power around him.
Two different attributes, but they had the characteristic of engendering each other. They intertwined and guided each other. Feeling the continuous fusion of these two powers, He Yiming felt neither joy nor sorrow in his heart. It was as if he had entered an even more mysterious realm.
However, at this crucial moment, He Yiming's ears trembled slightly. He caught a slight trace of murderous intent that seemed to have materialized.
This murderous aura was targeted at him, and the timing was perfect.
He Yiming shuddered, and he almost made a decision in an instant.
His essential Qi surged, and the fire power was suddenly withdrawn.
After losing the guidance of the fire power, the earth power that had been gradually condensing suddenly became like a headless fly, spinning a few times before completely dissipating.
Although He Yiming's flesh was pained, he knew that this kind of opportunity similar to sudden enlightenment was absolutely something that could only be encountered by chance and not sought after.
But at this moment, when he was about to be enlightened, he was mercilessly disturbed by someone. This evil fire was enough to drive him crazy, and he hated the intruder to the bone.
PS: I was actually defeated consecutively. I just reached the top 3, but before I could sit down, I fell again.
White Crane is still desperately begging for votes in order to reach the top 3 this month.
Brothers, please vote for the diligent White Crane.

I recommend a friend's book, "The Divine Path of Ten Thousand Things". It is a completely new career system. Although the theme is from another world, it does not have the old-fashioned transmigration. It can be said to have taken a new route, and can bring a new feeling to everyone. The author's foundation is very good, and the plot and characters are not bad. I recommend it! (To be continued, if you want to know the future, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, support the author, support the original reading!)
