In a room that was not too spacious, He Yiming held a thick secret manual and calmly read it.
From time to time, an enlightened expression would flash across his face. He had fully immersed himself in this secret manual.
This secret manual only recorded about half of the original secret manual's content at most. Furthermore, it only recorded the various application skills of fire, earth, and metal techniques as well as the conversion between them. Needless to say, it also included a detailed description of how to search for the 3 supporting points of a weapon during a tripod's foothold, as well as how to turn a weapon into a mist.
Moreover, the secret manual in his hand did not only have the aforementioned content, but it also had 3 times more annotations than the original content.
The annotations were the insights and experiences that Yu Wuchang had summarized after cultivating for more than 200 years.
The value of the insights and experiences alone was immeasurable.
After reading this secret manual, He Yiming completely understood why Jin Zhanzheng swore that he would be able to receive help from Yu Wuchang.
The veteran tripod's foothold powerhouse cultivated fire, earth, and metal among the 5 Elements' techniques. Moreover, he had been a tripod's foothold for many years and had failed to break through to become a Venerable One several times.
Having said that, it was precisely because he had failed to break through to become a Venerable One many times that he had unimaginably rich experience on the level of a tripod's foothold. This could be seen from the handwritten secret manual in front of Ou Yangming.
To achieve a tripod's foothold, one must first find the 3 supporting points of the Divine Soldier's Sharp Weapon.
It was definitely not easy to achieve this step.
If it was an ordinary Divine Soldier's Sharp Weapon, it would be relatively easy.
On the other hand, it would be extremely difficult to achieve this for some special and powerful Divine Soldier's Sharp Weapons. Without the help of a special method, it would be difficult to achieve.
For example, Jin Zhanzheng's Dragon Spear could not have found the 3 balancing points if it was not for a set of special cultivation techniques left behind by a Venerable One from the previous generation.
Nonetheless, the Five Elements Sect was worthy of being the once greatest sect in the world.
When cultivating the power of the five elements, there was a special cultivation method that could help the disciples find these three points more easily, and it was far easier for them to advance to the Cauldron Foot compared to the disciples of other sects.
This method was also unimaginably effective against those special Divine Soldier weapons.
This special cultivation method was called nurturing.
The biggest characteristic of cultivation was time.
By practicing the Five Elements Transmigration Cultivation Method, one could use a special technique to constantly inject the most powerful natural energy in one's body into the Divine Soldier's weapon every day. Once he did this for a long time, he would form his own brand on the Divine Soldier's weapon. After advancing to the Three Flower Realm, he would be able to easily find a spot that was most suitable for his own Vital Qi.
Once one of the locations was determined, one could use other methods to find the most suitable locations for the other two locations.
Once the three positions were determined, it would be much easier to cultivate the Divine Soldier. As long as one had enough strength, they would be able to form the Cauldron Foot sooner or later.
However, the biggest advantage of using this special cultivation method was time. At the same time, the biggest disadvantage was also time.
The Five Elements Transmigration Cultivation Method was of the same origin, and it would take at least 10 years to achieve the Cauldron Foot.
This was because one could only truly understand the weapon in one's hand like the back of one's hand after spending a long time together. Only by continuously using True Qi on a daily basis would one be able to take the next step and infuse the power of the five elements into the weapon.
He Yiming read the description in detail and could not help but be completely speechless.
Although the Five Elements Cultivation Method of the same origin was very powerful, it also required a rather mature technique to use it. However, it also had extremely harsh restrictions in certain aspects.
In fact, this prerequisite was nothing to a true disciple of the Five Elements Sect.
In the Five Elements Sect, if a disciple had the talent of the Three Flowers, they would be allowed to enter the armory when they condensed the Second Flower to choose the corresponding Divine Soldier.
Condensing the third flower was often the most difficult. Being able to successfully condense it within 20 to 30 years was already considered very lucky.
By the time that disciple had the strength of the Three Flowers, the Divine Soldier in their hands would have been with them for more than 10 years.
Therefore, this prerequisite was not a problem for ordinary disciples of the Five Elements Sect at all. At the very least, there was no one in the past who could not advance to the Cauldron Foot because of this restriction.
However, when it came to He Yiming, it was a huge problem.
After reading the description of the cultivation technique in detail, He Yiming felt a rush of excitement. He was almost certain that as long as he was given 10 years, the problem that troubled him would definitely be perfectly solved as he wished.
He Yiming touched his armpit and could not help but smile bitterly. He had only obtained the Five Elements Ring for a short time. Even if he had the special talent of cultivating all five elements, it was not easy for him to completely control it.
The reason why he could not find the three points that could form an absolute balance in the Five Elements Ring was that he was not familiar enough with this Divine Soldier. If it were any other Divine Soldier, he could use his powerful Vital Qi to suppress it without any scruples and completely control the weapon in his hands.
However, if it were an extremely special Divine Soldier like the Five Elements Ring, the result would be that the power of the Divine Soldier would be greatly reduced.
For such a special Divine Soldier, using the cultivation method recorded in the Five Elements Sect was definitely the best choice.
Using Vital Qi to cultivate it every day, first searching for one point, then using special techniques to search for the other two points. Using the power of the three elements to control the cycle of the five elements with an absolute balance was the most correct method.
He Yiming gently put down the secret manual in his hand and let out a bitter sigh full of regret.
Ten years. When he thought of this, his heart was filled with bitterness.
For other people, it was already very impressive to be able to reach the Cauldron Foot Realm in 10 years. However, He Yiming was obviously different.
If it were not for the 20-year promise with the totem in the deep mountains, He Yiming would have calmly accepted this result.
After all, he was still young. A mere 10 years was nothing to a Three Flower powerhouse like him. However, the 20-year promise was now hanging above his head like the Sword of Damocles.
If he were to use 10 years to advance to the Cauldron Foot Realm, how many years would it take for him to transform into a Divine Soldier and successfully reach the culmination stage?
20 years seemed to be a long time, but it would pass in the blink of an eye in the cultivation of martial arts. After this lesson, even He Yiming dared not guarantee that he would be able to advance from the Cauldron Foot Realm to the Venerable One in 10 years.
After all, the closer one was to the later stages of cultivation, the lower the possibility of a breakthrough. Although everyone firmly believed that he would definitely become a Venerable One. It seemed reasonable for him to drag it out for 10 or 20 years.
At this moment, he was faintly regretting that he had been blinded by his rapid advancement in the past. He had actually made the 20-year promise.
He suddenly had an idea. If he asked someone to change the twenty-year agreement to thirty or even forty years, he wondered if the totem clan would agree to it …
He Yiming shook his head and threw this ridiculous idea to the back of his mind. Even if he thought with his toes, he knew that the totem clan would never agree.
Having said that, if he still could not become a Venerable One after 20 years, would he not be courting death if he went to the totem clan?
He let out a long sigh and carefully closed the secret manual.
He had read all of the contents inside, and it was indeed very helpful to him. Not only did the secret technique regarding the cultivation of weapons give him great inspiration, but Yu Wuchang also had his unique experience in the use of the 3 powers. As long as he cultivated for a period of time, he could completely turn the contents into his own.
Using a Jia Huang Elixir to exchange for the right to read this secret manual, to him, it was indeed worth it.
He Yiming silently recalled the contents of the book that were worth paying attention to. He Yiming made sure that he had completely comprehended the essence of the book. He only needed to practice in the future to grasp it.
He conveniently retrieved the Five-elemental Ring. Since he had decided to use this method, he would start now.
Among the three elemental powers of fire, earth, and metal, the one that He Yiming liked to use the most was undoubtedly the power of metal.
Once the Thirty-six Splitting Mountain Forms were performed, it would give people a hearty feeling, and it was definitely his favorite consummate skill.
In comparison, whether it was using the fire-controlling art to guide the Nine Dragons Furnace or using the Overturning Heaven Seal, the effects were obviously better than the Thirty-six Splitting Mountain Forms.
The only thing was that the metal power was a power that completely belonged to him, whereas the other 2 powers were obviously borrowed from external forces.
After pondering for a while, He Yiming finally decided that since he could not choose, he would work together.
Powerful essential Qi gushed into the Five-elemental Ring. At first, it was a sharp metal power, but under the baptism of the power, the Five-elemental Ring flashed with a sparkling light. Fortunately, under his perfect control, the Five-elemental Ring did not rotate, or the metal power that was released would be enough to completely destroy the room.
A moment later, He Yiming retracted the Power of Metal. His hands quickly danced in the air, and a faint flame flickered in his palm. Once this powerful fire-controlling technique was displayed, the Five-elemental Ring turned red, as if it had suddenly turned into a brazier, emitting scorching heat waves.
The fire-elemental power was maintained for a full 10 minutes before He Yiming withdrew it.
Then, the powerful earth power gushed into the Five-elemental Ring.
According to the method recorded in the secret manual, He Yiming used the earth power to slowly flow into the Five-elemental Ring, as if the ring was a baby that had yet to be born.
After a cup of tea's time, He Yiming slowly retracted the Power of Earth.
However, at this moment, his dantian became restless again. Then, a powerful force rushed up, passed through his meridians, and entered the Five-elemental Ring in an instant.
