"I didn't expect your Cultivation Method to be so powerful. You have refined so much Spiritual Qi, but I can't see any improvement at all. Although your cultivation is slow, it's not difficult for you to fight someone of a higher level." Patriarch Acheron couldn't help but sigh.

After staying in Ye Kong's head for more than ten days, Patriarch Acheron had learned many of Ye Kong's secrets and was even more impressed by Ye Kong's Cultivation Method.

Generally speaking, the most important indicator to judge a Cultivation Method was the speed of cultivation. Everyone wanted to be fast, the faster, the better.

Only by raising his realm at all costs would he be able to have more powerful abilities, more powerful spells, and more powerful magical treasures.

Demonic Cultivators pursued speed the most. They did not hesitate to kill people for Spiritual Qi so that they could break through faster. They talked about who could reach the Nascent Soul Stage in a hundred years. These were the things they liked to talk about, and every time they talked about it, they would be full of envy.

However, they had forgotten that the final height of a building was not determined by the speed of construction, but by the foundation, the foundation, and the firmness of each layer, and then the layer below, and then the layer below, and then the layer below, and the degree of firmness of each layer.

That was why the problem of bottlenecks appeared. When a building was built high, the bottom was not stable. If it was built high, it would collapse.

Of course, it was impossible to fail in cultivation. There were not many cases of cultivation deviation, but bottlenecks did exist. Many people were fast in the beginning, but after reaching a certain point, they would reach a bottleneck and be unable to break through. They would be delayed for decades, centuries, and in the end, unable to break through. That was very normal.

However, the Five Elements Immortal Ascension Sutra was different. It emphasized that each level was the foundation of the previous one. Each level took a lot of time to absorb a lot of Spiritual Qi. It did not care about speed at all. Its characteristic was that it was slow, extremely slow, like a snail.

However, the advantage of the Five Elements Immortal Ascension Sutra was very surprising. Because the foundation was solid and stable, bottlenecks were basically not a problem.

Besides, slow cultivation did not necessarily mean weak. My realm was lower than yours, but my Spiritual Qi was not weaker than yours at all. Would I be weaker than you in a competition?

Ye Kong absorbed the last trace of Spiritual Qi into his Sea of Qi, stopped cultivating, and said with a smile, "Of course I can fight above my level. If I have a suitable celestial device, it is not difficult to resist five or six levels."

"Five to six levels!" Patriarch Acheron was a little surprised. Generally speaking, some cultivators could rely on their powerful Dharma treasures to fight against a Level 3 cultivator. However, fighting against a Level 5 cultivator was simply unheard of. That was a problem that could last for two generations.

For example, if an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator fought against a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, as long as the cultivator had a powerful magic tool, it would be very easy to accomplish. However, if an early stage Foundation Establishment cultivator wanted to fight against a late stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, or even a perfected Foundation Establishment cultivator, then it would be too shocking. One had to know that with so many levels, the difference between them was huge. Many early stage Foundation Establishment cultivators couldn't even last one round against a perfected Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"It is indeed powerful. This is the first time I've heard of such a powerful cultivation method in the Cangnan Continent. Moreover, it is most suitable for trash with five spiritual roots. If this were to spread out, even trash would become a treasure." Ancestor Acheron shook his head and sighed.

"This is called turning trash into treasure." Ye Kong sent his divine sense into the bier and ignored Patriarch Acheron. He flew to the top of his head and flipped through the Encyclopedia of Talismans.

After three seclusion sessions over the past ten days, Ye Kong's spiritual power had greatly improved. The Encyclopedia of Talismans opened a new page for him.

However, Ye Kong was also very depressed now. He looked at the method of making these talismans every day, but he couldn't use them even once. He was really itching to try them.

Today, he opened another page. One of the talismans drew Ye Kong's attention because he didn't know what this talisman was used for.

Generally, talismans were used to hit people, assist, strengthen, seal, and so on. However, this talisman was obviously different. It was called "Five Percent Luck Talisman".

Of course, from the name, using this talisman was to increase the success rate of doing certain things. It could increase the success rate by five percent. However, there was no indication on the usage. What kind of luck did it increase?

Was it to increase the success rate of breaking through to the next realm, or the success rate of refining weapons or items? Or even all of them? Using this talisman would cause the gods of fortune to descend? Just like in the Monopoly game?

Ye Kong felt that this guess wasn't very reliable. He flew down to ask Patriarch Acheron, but this old man had never heard of it. After thinking for a long time, he guessed, "It's most likely to increase the success rate of refining weapons or elixirs. I'm not very proficient in those things, so I've never heard of this kind of luck talisman."

After Patriarch Acheron finished speaking, he said sincerely to Ye Kong, "Little brother, let me give you a piece of advice. Cultivate in peace and improve your realm. Don't be delayed by these trivial matters. Do you know how many of those array formation geniuses and refining geniuses eventually ascend? They waste their time on these things. Even if those Elixir Kings refine elixirs that others don't have, how many of them can ascend in the end? Listen to my advice. You have such a good cultivation technique. Cultivating in peace is the right way. "

Of course, Ye Kong could tell that Patriarch Acheron was speaking from the bottom of his heart this time. He smiled and said, "It seems that Patriarch is an ascetic cultivator. He doesn't care about anything else and only cares about improving his realm."

Patriarch Acheron nodded and said, "Of course, as a cultivator, it's not enough to just cultivate basic cultivation techniques. You also need certain skills. This way, you can have more auxiliary skills and earn Spirit Stones … However, I suggest that you use alchemy or array formation as auxiliary skills. Alchemy means that you have all kinds of elixirs that can nourish and improve your strength, which is helpful to speed up your breakthrough. As for array formations, they are even more powerful. Maze Array, Illusion Array, Killing Array, each kind of array formation has a wonderful function. In this dangerous continent, if you know more array formations, it means that your chances of survival are higher."

Ye Kong understood what he meant. He was saying that alchemy and array formations were more useful than talismans. He asked, "Patriarch, are talismans useless? I think those talismans are very powerful. "

"Ignorant!" Patriarch Acheron snorted disdainfully and said, "Talismans are used by low-level cultivators. Those Fireball Talismans, Earth Escape Talismans, and Flying Leg Talismans can only play a supporting role. They are useless against Yuanying Stage!"

"No way. You are talking about low-grade talismans. Of course, they can't be used against Yuanying Stage …"

"But high-grade talismans have been lost since ancient times. There are not many middle-grade talismans in circulation!"

"Oh, I see." Ye Kong nodded and said to himself, "It seems that it's not because talismans are not powerful, but because high-grade talismans have been lost. But I, Young Master … hehe …"

Patriarch Acheron didn't hear anything at first. He was quite unhappy. It was rare for him to say something so sincere, but the other party didn't give him any face at all.

"You still want to use those talismans?" Patriarch Acheron asked angrily.

"That's right. Hehe." Ye Kong smiled. He wished that the talisman making method had been lost in this world. Then, wouldn't the book in his hands be the only one in the world? It's a waste of time for others to learn talismans. But I am not. I have this book. The talismans in it are things that you, the natives of this world, have never heard of!

"Don't listen to the elders …" Patriarch Acheron shook his head. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly thought of something. He raised his head and asked, "Could it be that you know the method to make those long-lost talismans?"

"I only know a few."

Although Ye Kong didn't tell the truth, Patriarch Acheron was already extremely shocked. He said, "According to the ancient legends, those high-grade talismans and top-grade talismans have earth-shattering power. You … you really know?"

"It's just that the old man I met when I was young taught it to me. I haven't tested it, so I don't know if it's true or not."

"Oh." Patriarch Acheron looked a little disappointed. He then said, "When you have the strength to go out, quickly gather the materials to make talismans. I really want to see if those high-grade talismans are really that powerful."

"Don't worry. Based on our relationship, I will definitely let you see it first." Ye Kong said.

"Tsk, what relationship do we have?" Patriarch Acheron sneered. "You better be careful! I, your ancestor, have been thinking of all sorts of ways to break free at all times. The day I rush out of the golden light will be the day I seize the body and occupy the cauldron. Good luck to you, childish and ignorant boy! "

Although Patriarch Acheron said it coldly, Ye Kong felt that this old man didn't think so. So he smiled and said, "Alright then, I will wait for you to seize the cauldron."

After saying that, Ye Kong was about to leave the spiritual platform. But behind him, Patriarch Acheron stopped him. "Hey, don't be in a hurry to leave."

"Why? Is there anything else? "

"Well, ahem, it's like this." Patriarch Acheron seemed to be very embarrassed to speak, but he finally said with hesitation, "Last time … didn't you promise me that you would help me find a body with an excellent Spiritual Root for me to seize?"

"Yes." Ye Kong nodded and said, "I am not as ungrateful as you people in the Cangnan Continent. I always do what I say and do what I do! I will definitely do what I promised others! "

"Good!" Patriarch Acheron was overjoyed. Then he said with a charming smile, "Then can you … find me a body with a mixed Spiritual Root of Five Elements? Hehe. "

Ye Kong suddenly understood and asked in surprise, "Do you also want to practice the Five Elements Immortal Ascension Sutra?"

"Yes! Hehe, little brother, you are really smart. I know you are wise and powerful at first sight. There must be something extraordinary about you. "

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, don't give me that." Ye Kong interrupted him angrily and asked, "You are in the Yuanying Stage. If you want to change your basic Cultivation Method, you will have to start from scratch. Even if your Divine Sense is strong, it will take a lot of time to re-cultivate."

Patriarch Acheron had already figured out the key point. He nodded and said, "After seizing, if I continue to practice the original Cultivation Method, I will certainly return to the Yuanying Stage quickly. But it will be very difficult for me to go further, let alone ascend. Since you have a Cultivation Method that can guarantee my ascension, how can I let it go? When I ascend to the Immortal World, we can also accompany each other, right?"

Ye Kong sneered and said, "No wonder you are so kind to remind me. It turns out that you have this idea."

Ye Kong thought for a while and felt that this was also a good idea. If he promised Patriarch Acheron, he would definitely do his best to help him. Moreover, he was the only one who could understand the Five Elements Immortal Ascension Scripture, so Patriarch Acheron would not want to kill him.

Having made up his mind, Ye Kong smiled and said, "Actually, it's not that I can't agree to your request, but I have to tell you clearly that only I can understand that scripture. If I die, you will never be able to ascend to heaven."

"Of course, of course." Hearing his promise, Patriarch Acheron immediately nodded with great joy. "I will wholeheartedly and do my best in the future. Little brother, you are my second parent. My life is yours, and my death is your ghost …"

"Alright, alright. After living for so long, you can't even flatter me well." Ye Kong left the bier and opened his eyes. Although he had promised Patriarch Acheron, he would not be in a hurry to help him. At least, he would have to reach a higher realm than Patriarch Acheron and have the ability to protect himself before he could fulfill his promise. To deal with the cultivators of the Cangnan Continent, he had to be more careful.

Ye Kong stood up and took out the Spirit Stone in the center of the Formation. The Spirit Cultivator Formation immediately disappeared.

He left his room and was about to go out to eat some food when he heard a bad news. Lu Qin was sick.
