"Very well."
Hearing Ye Xiao Chan's serious tone, Ling Xian grinned, "But I have to remind you that we are playing with fire. If I fail, you and I will both die."
"I trust you."
Ye Xiao Chan looked at Ling Xian in a serious manner, "Senior, do what you need to do. Even if I lose my life, I will have no regrets."
"I will do my best." Ling Xian smiled warmly. If he finds the Stone of Five Elements, he has 70% confidence. If he doesn't, he will give up.
Therefore, the chance of him dying is very low.
"Friend, I know you mean well. But this is far too dangerous. I don't want you to lose your life."
The lady in white sighed. She knew very well how terrifying the five elements are. Even Supremes cannot control it.
"I will not joke around with my life."
Ling Xian's eyes were deep, "Don't worry. If it doesn't work, I will give up."
Then, he no longer paid attention to the lady in white and continued to look deeper into the Forest of Five Elements.
The prerequisite to setting up an array is to find the Stone of Five Elements. Or else no matter how skilled he is with arrays, he cannot control the five elements.
"I hope there is a Stone of Five Elements here …"
Ling Xian mumbled to himself. He had already investigated. The deepest part of the forest has the densest amount of five elements and the highest chance of producing a Stone of Five Elements.
Therefore, he walked deeper into the Forest of Five Elements with Ye Xiao Chan following closely behind.
After some time, Ling Xian arrived at the deepest part of the Forest of Five Elements. His expression changed.
This was because the five elements here were far too dense. Once it goes berserk, it can threaten even Supremes!
"No wonder everyone's expression changes when they talk about it. This place sure is terrifying." Ling Xian exclaimed. He knew that with his current capabilities, he can at most last for 200 breaths.
"Senior, can there be a Stone of Five Elements here?" Ye Xiao Chan asked nervously.
"There will be."
Ling Xian grinned. The Stone of Five Elements is extremely rare. It can only be produced in places where the five elements gather and where it is extremely dense.
With the density of the five elements here, it can definitely produce a Stone of Five Elements. It will be a high quality one!
Ling Xian's brows began to emit light and his Qi rolled out in all directions.
After a few breaths of time, his eyes fixed on a towering ancient tree in front of him.
Based on Ling Xian's senses, this tree had the densest amount of five elements. It was very likely that there is a Stone of Five Elements here.
At that moment, he condensed the wind into a sword and shattered the ancient tree.
Immediately, an object appeared in their line of sight, emitting a multicolored light that was dreamy and illusory.
It was a rare treasure on par with the Time Stone, the Five Elements Stone.
This made Ye Xiaochan reveal a smile, unable to hide her joy.
Ling Xian smiled as well.
As long as he could find the Five Elements Stone, he had a seventy percent chance of controlling the violent power of the five elements and saving Ye Xiaochan's mother.
"That's great! Mother, you can finally be saved."
Ye Xiaochan cried tears of joy. Then, she reached out her slender jade-like hands towards the Five Elements Stone.
Suddenly, the Forest of Five Elements shook. The originally peaceful and tranquil power of the five elements suddenly showed signs of going berserk.
It was as if a boulder had suddenly fallen on the surface of a calm lake, causing thousands of ripples.
"Oh no."
Ling Xian's expression changed. He knew that this Stone of Five Elements was connected to the five elements here. If he moved it, the five elements would explode.
He waved his sleeve to stop Ye Xiaochan.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
The Stone of Five Elements has no intelligence and has no offensive capabilities. Therefore, Ye Xiaochan easily held onto it.
In the next second, the five elements turned from reinforcing each other to suppressing each other, from calmness to violence.
BOOOM!
The sky fell and the earth cracked. The Heaven and Earth shook as the violent power of the five elements rolled out in all directions. Ye Xiaochan began to puke out blood and fell down powerlessly.
Ling Xian's face was pale white and blood was dripping from the corner of his lips.
It was far too powerful. Though the power of the five elements wasn't as strong as the others, the power of the five elements was unstoppable!
"Senior, what is going on? Why is the power of the five elements going berserk?" Ye Xiaochan was panicking.
"Because you touched the Stone of Five Elements."
Ling Xian shook his head with a bitter smile. He didn't think Ye Xiaochan would move so quickly. She didn't even give him time to prepare.
"Senior, I am sorry." Ye Xiaochan's eyes were red. There was guilt and fear.
The power of the five elements was far too terrifying. In an instant, she was heavily injured and on the verge of death. Naturally, she was panicking.
"It's not your fault. Don't blame yourself." Ling Xian softly sighed. At this point, blaming Ye Xiaochan was pointless.
"Then what do we do now?" Ye Xiaochan asked.
"We have to gamble."
Ling Xian mumbled to himself. If he can set up an array that can control the power of the five elements before he dies, then he can escape from danger.
But this was very difficult.
At most, he could last for 200 breaths. Even if he was an array grandmaster, he may not be able to set up a heavenly array in such a short amount of time.
"Senior, I am sorry. I dragged you down with me." Ye Xiaochan's eyes were misty and she was about to cry.
"Tears cannot solve anything. If you feel guilty towards me, then live on and give me the Heartless Flower."
Ling Xian's gaze turned determined. This was a matter of life and death. He had to use every second he had and give it his all.
Therefore, he flapped around his sleeve. Array patterns appeared in the sky and began to transform into a heavenly array.
This array was named the Star Shift Array. It could control the power of nature, such as the power of space and time.
However, it could not control a cultivator's power. Because it originated from oneself, it did not belong to nature.
Therefore, the Star Shift Array was useless. But at this moment, it was a life-saving straw.
Originally, Ling Xian planned on setting up the complete Star Shift Array. Only then could he ensure that he could control the power of the five elements and destroy the small world.
But now, he had no more time.
If he cannot control the violent power of the five elements within 200 breaths, both he and Ye Xiaochan will die.
"I have to give it my all!"
Ling Xian's expression was determined. The Armor of Royal Spirits and the Flower of Dao appeared. However, they weren't used to protect him, they were used to protect Ye Xiaochan.
She was merely a cultivator of the seventh level and couldn't even last 100 breaths. If he doesn't protect her, Ling Xian can forget about getting the Heartless Flower.
"Thank you, senior."
With the protection of the Armor of Royal Spirits and the Flower of Dao, Ye Xiaochan sighed in relief. Her face was full of fear. The power of the five elements was far too terrifying. Within a short period of time, her organs were heavily damaged. Naturally, she was fearful.
"Pray. If I succeed, not only will you and I survive, but we will also be able to save your mother."
Ling Xian's hands moved and an infinite amount of array patterns appeared. They were slowly transforming into the Star Shift Array.
Time passed by little by little. The power of the five elements wreaked havoc in the world, making Ling Xian puke out blood. Many of his meridians were broken.
Ye Xiaochan's life was hanging by a thread and she was close to death.
Despite the protection of the Armor of Royal Spirits and the Flower of Dao, her cultivation level was far too low. It was already unbelievable that she could last more than 70 breaths.
"100 breaths left …" Ling Xian silently calculated the time. There was bitterness and helplessness.
Because 100 breaths wasn't the amount of time it takes for the Star Shift Array to take shape. It was the remaining time of his life.
In other words, his life had entered a countdown. If he cannot control the violent power of the five elements within 100 breaths, then he will die.
Therefore, Ling Xian was racing against time and didn't dare to be reckless.
