Chapter 595: The Unseen Cultivation Art
Chapter 595: The Unseen Cultivation Art
"It's a pity that the Universal Incense has been completely burned up, even with careful use over the years."
At this moment, Chu Ning looked up and saw that the Universal Incense had disappeared, silently lamenting its loss.
He had never heard of the Universal Incense before.
He wondered if it was because his spiritual body had an extremely compatible affinity with the treasure, or if it inherently possessed such miraculous effects.
Over the years, the incense had been immensely helpful in creating the first layer of the Primordial Divine Art.
"I should take the opportunity to visit the Heavenly Dome Palace and see if I can obtain more, even if it means exchanging other treasures."
Chu Ning now possessed numerous treasures, many of which might not be of use to him, but they could be of great value to the Heavenly Dome Palace.
As for the Universal Incense, if he could acquire more, it would undoubtedly be of great use to Chu Ning, who still needed to continue creating cultivation arts.
Chu Ning decided to name the first layer of the cultivation art he had created.
The next moment, Chu Ning's heart stirred, and he focused his attention on the panel within his mind.
Immediately, a hint of confusion arose within him.
【Nine Transformations Body Cultivation Art, Volume 2, Layer 3 (220,000/220,000)】
【True Spirit Art (39,200/640,000)】
Within the panel, the second volume of the Nine Transformations Body Cultivation Art and the True Spirit Art were still visible.
However, the Five Elements Chaos Scripture had disappeared.
The first layer of the Primordial Divine Art he had created was also not displayed.
"Could it be because I haven't cultivated it after giving it a name?"
With this thought in mind, Chu Ning immediately began cultivating the first layer of the Primordial Divine Art once again.
Half a day passed in this manner before Chu Ning finally ended his cultivation state.
He looked again.
【Nine Transformations Body Cultivation Art, Volume 2, Layer 3 (220,000/220,000)】
【True Spirit Art (39,200/640,000)】
But the panel remained unchanged.
The Five Elements Chaos Scripture was still absent, and the first layer of the Primordial Divine Art was also not displayed.
"Why is this?"
A hint of perplexity flashed across Chu Ning's forehead.
"Could it be that my first layer of the Primordial Divine Art, like the third volume of the Nine Transformations Body Cultivation Art, is incomplete and therefore not shown on the panel?"
At this moment, Chu Ning suddenly thought of another possibility.
"Could it be that cultivating the Primordial Divine Art and the Nine Transformations Body Cultivation Art together doesn't generate Essence Energy?
Have my efforts in creating it made it worse instead of better?"
As this thought flashed through his mind, Chu Ning no longer hesitated. Holding a Primordial Stone, he began cultivating both the Primordial Divine Art and the Nine Transformations Body Cultivation Art simultaneously.
The next moment, Chu Ning channeled and refined Spirit Energy and Primordial Power into his body.
Feeling this familiar scene, Chu Ning breathed a slight sigh of relief.
He carefully observed the changes as the Spirit Energy and Primordial Power entered his body.
"The speed of Spirit Energy absorption has increased significantly, but the absorption and refinement of Primordial Power hasn't accelerated."
Both energies entered his body and were refined.
Although the Spirit Energy entered his body at a noticeably faster rate, Chu Ning's Magical Power didn't increase proportionally.
Chu Ning's heart stirred, and upon further scrutiny, he indeed discovered a distinct change in the Essence Energy within his body.
"Originally, fifty percent of the absorbed Spirit Energy was refined into Magical Power, while the other fifty percent was refined into Essence Energy.
But now, a full sixty percent of the Spirit Energy is being refined into Essence Energy.
Therefore, despite absorbing more Spirit Energy, my Magical Power cultivation speed hasn't increased, but my Essence Energy has."
Upon noticing the changes in Spirit Energy and Essence Energy, Chu Ning carefully sensed the Primordial Power.
Instantly, he realized that the speed and quantity of Primordial Power refinement and absorption hadn't increased.
However, the proportion of Primordial Power condensed into Essence Energy had also risen.
It had reached around sixty percent, with only forty percent used for tempering the physical body.
"It seems my conjecture is correct. At this stage, the main effect of condensing Essence Energy still comes from Magical Power cultivation arts.
With this realization, Chu Ning's next goal was clear: to create the second layer of the Primordial Divine Art.
After integrating the cultivation method of absorbing Thunder Attribute Spirit Qi, he might attempt to cultivate Wind and Ice attributes next."
Chu Ning pondered this thoughtfully.
However, when Chu Ning ended his cultivation and looked at the panel again, he still didn't find the Primordial Divine Art.
This left Chu Ning utterly perplexed.
After much contemplation, Chu Ning suddenly recalled the words the Immortal Seed had spoken to him.
The Immortal Seed had said that it couldn't change the rules of the world but could only bestow existing things onto the panel.
For example, the first two volumes of the Nine Transformations Body Cultivation Art.
Or the several spatial artifacts.
"Does this mean that the Primordial Divine Art I created is new and beyond the scope of the Immortal Seed's recognition and control?"
Considering this possibility, Chu Ning's spirit suddenly lifted.
If this were indeed the case, it would be excellent news for Chu Ning.
It would imply that the Immortal Seed didn't interfere excessively with his cultivation.
"Whether this is true or not, I'll have to verify it in the future."
Chu Ning muttered to himself.
Without a proficiency display on the panel, he couldn't track his cultivation progress in the first layer of the Primordial Divine Art in such detail.
However, Chu Ning didn't feel the slightest disappointment. Instead, he was even more delighted.
Since he had created the cultivation art himself, he naturally had a good grasp of his actual progress.
In the following days, Chu Ning continued his cultivation on Azure Light Island, focusing on two goals. First, he wanted to become more familiar with the Primordial Divine Art, and second, he aimed to gather more Essence Energy through dual cultivation.
Despite the fact that Chu Ning's Primordial Divine Art couldn't manipulate Essence Energy, the Nine Transformations Body Cultivation Art's third volume allowed him to utilize a portion of his Essence Energy.
In half a year, the two Golden Thunder Eagles had already solidified their eighth-stage transformation.
Both eagles had been cultivating on the island for years, and like the saying goes, still waters run deep. They yearned for some action and wanted to explore the outside world.
Chu Ning agreed that whether it was for demon beasts or cultivators, relentless cultivation wasn't always the best approach.
Sometimes, one needed to venture outside for training, or even engage in battles.
With their recent advancement to the eighth stage, the eagles' cultivation had grown stronger, and their wisdom had also improved.
Chu Ning had already scouted the nearby seas, and although there were some eighth-stage demon beasts, they posed no real threat to the eagles.
It was indeed a good opportunity for them to venture out and train.
"I wonder where White Spirit and the Earth Horn Dragon have gone. It's been years since they've returned," Chu Ning mused, not overly concerned about their safety.
The Earth Horn Dragon, a tenth-stage spirit beast, had few threats on the Skylid Continent.
Although White Spirit was still at the eighth stage, her profound abilities and secret techniques far surpassed ordinary spirit beasts.
Chu Ning had given her a sentient spirit treasure and the Ice Soul Cold Mirror.
Even if they encountered a late-stage Essence Incarnation, escaping wouldn't be an issue.
However, Chu Ning was thinking about the Earth Horn Dragon's Essence Soul.
When they were at the Nine Transformations Spirit Mountain, the Earth Horn Dragon had promised to become Chu Ning's spirit beast, and in return, Chu Ning had agreed to allow the dragon to split and nurture another Essence Soul within three years.
By Chu Ning's calculation, the Earth Horn Dragon should have already cultivated this Essence Soul.
But in recent years, Chu Ning's focus had been on creating the Primordial Divine Art, neglecting the enhancement of the Five Elements Divine Sword's power.
Now that the first layer of the Primordial Divine Art was stabilized, it was time to address this matter.
...
Several tens of thousands of miles away from Purple Light Island, a young woman in yellow and a middle-aged man were flying towards the island.
They were none other than White Spirit and the Earth Horn Dragon, who had left the island in their embodied forms years ago.
At this moment, the Earth Horn Dragon, feeling indignant, sent a sound transmission to White Spirit: "White Spirit, why didn't you let me teach that guy a lesson just now?
Although the Golden Scaled Serpent is a tenth-stage metal-attributed demon beast with strong attacks, with my defense, even if I can't kill him, I can still give him a hard time."
White Spirit turned her head and replied through sound transmission, "So what if you make him suffer, Dragon Brother? Can you kill him?"
Hearing this, the Earth Horn Dragon shook his head.
"That Golden Scaled Serpent is also a Heaven-Earth Spirit Beast, and although its cultivation years are less than mine, its abilities are not weak.
I'm confident I can win, but killing it might be a bit difficult."
Upon hearing this, White Spirit smiled slightly and asked, "What about our master?"
"Of course, our master can kill him!" the Earth Horn Dragon replied without hesitation.
He had personally experienced Chu Ning's formidable abilities, especially when they encountered two late-stage Essence Incarnation cultivators outside the Nine Transformations Spirit Mountain, which left him in awe of Chu Ning's profound cultivation.
The Earth Horn Dragon was truly convinced of his master's power.
After saying this, the Earth Horn Dragon's eyes lit up.
"Oh, so you want our master to avenge you?"
He then clicked his tongue and said, "There's a saying among human cultivators: 'The most venomous is a woman's heart.' I now understand what it means.
That guy was a bit disrespectful to you just now, and I thought a lesson would suffice.
I didn't expect you to want to kill him directly.
Good thing I won't provoke you in the future."
White Spirit glared at the Earth Horn Dragon upon hearing this.
Then she explained, "Do you think I want to kill him just because he said a few words to me? Do you know why our master wants your Essence Soul?"
"Why?" The Earth Horn Dragon asked, puzzled.
He had only heard Chu Ning express his desire for one of his Essence Souls.
Over the years, the Earth Horn Dragon had indeed cultivated another complete Essence Soul, but Chu Ning hadn't rushed him, and he hadn't hurried to offer it.
Now that White Spirit had brought it up, he immediately asked about it.
"Our master has a set of Five Elements Divine Swords, which you've seen. Among them, the fire and wood swords already contain a tenth-stage Essence Soul.
Your earth-attributed Essence Soul is very powerful and will be of great help to our master.
This way, he'll only lack the gold and water attributes."
The Earth Horn Dragon, with his years of cultivation and strong wisdom, immediately understood upon hearing this.
"So that's the reason!"
As the Earth Horn Dragon was about to say more, he turned his head and looked back.
"Hey, he's catching up!"
White Spirit looked back and saw the golden light behind them. She smiled and said, "Perfect, this saves our master from making another trip.
Let's fly faster to avoid getting entangled by him again."
Both of them accelerated towards Purple Light Island.
Although White Spirit was still at the eighth stage, her natural speed was not slow, and at this moment, she was no weaker than the two tenth-stage demon beasts.
The Golden Scaled Serpent's escape light was incredibly fast, but it couldn't fully catch up.
After chasing for about two to three thousand miles, the Golden Scaled Serpent seemed to give up, letting out a few angry curses before stopping the pursuit.
This left the Earth Horn Dragon and White Spirit speechless.
To avoid alerting the serpent, White Spirit refrained from provoking it with words and continued flying towards Purple Light Island.
