Chapter 47 Breakthrough, Nascent Soul!

Layers of void shattered like mirrors, and a golden beam of light pierced through the sky, rising from Ye Zhao's head and passing through the entire secret realm!

All the monks seemed to hear the grand voice of the Tao whispering in their ears, and their souls trembled!

Nascent Soul, breakthrough!

The strange phenomena in heaven and earth slowly dissipated, and the spiritual power surging around Ye Zhao also calmed down.

She closed her eyes and looked inward, only to feel that her sea of ​​consciousness was clear and ethereal, and her Nascent Soul was sitting in the center of her sea of ​​consciousness. She immersed her mind in the spiritual root of her Dantian, and was suddenly startled.

Her spiritual root was a single top-grade water spiritual root, which should have been a transparent and clear blue jade color. But at this moment, that spiritual root, which was essentially water, was actually faintly reflecting wisps of golden, red, green, and dark black light!

Those are the fluctuations of spiritual power of the four attributes of gold, wood, fire and earth!

Ye Zhao held his breath and concentrated, practicing his mental skills.

Sure enough, when she tried to absorb the fire-attributed spiritual energy in the air, the impure spiritual energy that was originally harmful to her was absorbed and refined by the spiritual roots in her body smoothly as if it was summoned!

In the world of cultivation, the spiritual root attributes of ordinary cultivators determine what type of spiritual energy they can mobilize and absorb.

Those with water spiritual roots have a very high affinity for water-attributed spiritual energy in their own meridians. Once they try to absorb spiritual energy of other attributes, it will not only be difficult to refine it, but will cause blockage in the meridians.

After Ye Zhao's spiritual roots transformed, they could absorb multiple kinds of spiritual energy at the same time, which meant that she could practice any attribute technique.

The speed of absorbing spiritual energy is also far beyond that of ordinary people.

Ye Zhao took a deep breath and slowly withdrew his consciousness.

At the moment she pulled her consciousness away,

The talisman floating in the air suddenly went out, turned into tiny dots of light, and disappeared into the void.

Yu Canglan, Song Shiyu and Luo Yinsheng watched this scene from afar and were all shocked for a long time.

"These talismans actually dissipated automatically?"

Yu Canglan, always calm and composed, couldn't help but be surprised at this moment. "She actually comprehended the mental method that we have been unable to comprehend for decades at the Golden Core Realm, and directly advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm... and didn't suffer any backlash..."

“It’s simply a miracle.”

Xuanji Sanren also arrived at this time.

He was weak and looked like he would disappear in the wind at any moment.

The little boy supported him and walked towards the hall step by step.

"Senior Xuanji?!" Song Shiyu exclaimed, but Xuanji Sanren raised his hand to stop everyone, his eyes only looking at Ye Zhao.

He flicked his sleeves, and the surrounding space and time suddenly froze!

The light in the entire hall was frozen, and Yu Canglan and the other three were all trapped in place.

Xuanji Sanren's body swayed, and he struggled to walk towards Ye Zhao.

He stopped three steps in front of Ye Zhao, bowed solemnly, and said, "I am Xuanji. I have been trapped here for two hundred and seventy-three years. I have tried every possible means to comprehend this method. Today, I am fortunate to meet you, my friend..."

Ye Zhao bowed in return, "Senior, there's no need to be so polite."

Xuanji Sanren chuckled bitterly, "...I know this request is rude, but...I am dying, and I only wish to resolve my inner demons before I die...May I ask, young friend, how did you comprehend this inner method?"

As if afraid that Ye Zhao would refuse, he added anxiously: "If you have any concerns, you don't need to elaborate. Just tell me the key to enlightenment... Even if it's just a hint, it will be enough to clear up my doubts."

Ye Zhao couldn't bear to reject this elder who had practiced hard for hundreds of years. Looking at his frail figure, he pondered for a moment and said, "If there's a key... it should be the pulling force."

Xuanji Sanren's brows twitched slightly: "Pulling force?"

Ye Zhao nodded. "When I first entered the inner Dharma, I didn't rush to comprehend it. Instead, I emptied my mind and body. At that time, a ray of extremely pure spiritual power emerged from the light symbol and approached me. I vaguely sensed that it was the original spiritual power of water attribute, and it resonated with my spiritual roots."

Xuanji Sanren's face showed a sudden realization, and he seemed to be thinking: "...Could it be that this method of mind requires people with specific attributes to comprehend?"

"That's not right. In recent years, countless people have possessed water-attributed spiritual roots. Why can't they comprehend it?"

Ye Zhao hesitated for a moment and said, "Not only that... Senior, have you noticed that those pills outside contain trace amounts of Flame Heart Vine powder?"

"Flame Heart Vine?" Xuanji Sanren was startled, his expression suddenly changing, "The problem is with those pills?!"

"Not bad," Ye Zhao nodded.

Flame Heart Vine is a top-grade spiritual plant with fire attribute. It grows in the cracks of rock marrow for thousands of years and contains pure essence of fire attribute. Although its medicinal properties are of fire attribute, it has a gentle harmonizing power.

It does not directly determine the main therapeutic effect of the elixir, but it has almost become the basic auxiliary material for mid- and high-level elixirs. Whether it is the Ningshen Pill, Qingling Pill, Xi Nian Pill or Juqi Huayuan Pill, just adding a small amount of Flame Heart Vine powder can improve the success rate of elixir refining.

But the medicinal power of such an inconspicuous medicinal herb repels the spiritual power overflowing from the mental talisman formation.

After listening to Ye Zhao's explanation, Xuanji Sanren was speechless for a long time.

Years of doubts were finally resolved at this moment, and the corners of my eyes were slightly moist.

“I see…I see…”

He turned his head to look at the winding steps and the misty mountain road outside the hall. There seemed to be a last glimmer of light in his eyes as he glanced at the pills scattered everywhere inch by inch.

Those elixirs that everyone regarded as opportunities turned out to be the culprits that caused countless geniuses to fail.

What a pity and lament.

It turns out that all gifts have already been marked with chips in the dark, and gaining or losing is all God's will.

He chuckled softly twice, "From the foot of the mountain to the top, the temptations along the way are irresistible, but you are determined to climb the road and never stop for those elixirs. That's why you were able to comprehend this mental method." He turned his head and stared at Ye Zhao.

"I have painstakingly studied this method for hundreds of years, and I pride myself on my intelligence, but I didn't realize that I was already heading in the wrong direction from the very beginning."

He stood up and looked up at the sky, the scene of thunder breaking through the clouds just now reflected in his eyes.

At the end of his speech, he chuckled as if relieved, his old face extremely calm.

He no longer obsessed with the unattainable achievement, but was only happy to witness the true successor reach the summit and attain enlightenment before his death.

Xuanji Sanren raised his finger lightly, and a stream of light flew out from his sleeve, drawing a mysterious trajectory along the top of the mountain.

In a moment, all the elixirs and magic medicines left among the steps and plants on the entire mountain seemed to sense something and turned into rays of light. They rose into the air on their own and converged in the air like thousands of stars returning to their positions, and all flew into the plain storage bag.

"My time is almost up... but if I could see you reach the summit and attain enlightenment, I would have no regrets."

"The secret realm has been open for three hundred years, waiting for you to enter."

Xuanji Sanren looked at the talismans that had dissipated above the hall. "They have fulfilled their destiny, so they turned into streams of light and flew away. This mountain will collapse soon. You can take these."

He handed the storage bag to Ye Zhao, "May your heart remain as firm as before, your resolve as strong as a rock, and may you break through the heavens and attain the supreme path."
