The core cultivation technique, besides evolving the body, was also created to complement the characteristics of the sect's spells.
For example, the early stages of practicing the Azure Cloud Technique are primarily designed to facilitate the later entry into the Azure Lotus Sword Song.
Ye Feng's Five Elements Technique, while lacking specific moves and spells, is designed to create the positive and negative Five Elements of Yin and Yang.
As for the sixth level and above of the Lieyuan Technique, they are more focused on increasing the power of awakened divine abilities during the Nascent Soul stage! Regardless of the divine ability, once cultivated to the Great Ascension stage, it ultimately transforms into that final, ultimate technique.
Five Elements Chaos Strike!
"The Tao has five elements that transcend all laws; the primordial chaos returns to its original state as desired."
These sect poems are not just any name given casually.
The early stages of the Lieyuan Technique differ from the Five Elements Formula.
If one can cultivate both the Azure Cloud Qi Refining Technique and the Spirit Transformation Technique, then one must choose only one once they reach the Nascent Soul stage.
To switch to the Elemental Transformation Technique, Ye Feng would have to dissipate most of his magical power...
Although system upgrades don't require viewing cultivation techniques, the actual magical power generated is still based on the Five Elements Technique.
Furthermore, if Ye Feng changes his cultivation method, what will become of the hundreds of thousands of disciples of the Penglai Sect?
“The cultivation method cannot be changed... The path is also walked by people. The predecessors of the Five Elements Sect were able to create the Lieyuan Technique through hardship. I now have the Lieyuan Technique to refer to, and I can also read many notes from predecessors. There is no reason why I am inferior to them!”
After reading the Natural Spirit Technique again, Ye Feng put the jade slip down.
He left behind a clone, while his main body entered the cultivation space directly...

Eastern Region of the Central Continent
A sixth-level sect, Qingyuan Sect.
The sky was clear for thousands of miles when suddenly a loud bang occurred.
"boom!"
"Who dares to offend my Qingyuan Sect!"
Only a moment after that sound, another scream rang out.
"No... how could this be? Fusion! The Qingyuan Sect has somehow offended the two seniors. Can't you at least let me die knowing why?"
"The problem is that you're at the Void Returning stage... and you even created a new cultivation technique!"
After the two men in black finished speaking in a sinister tone, they attacked without hesitation.
The patriarch of the Qingyuan Sect has passed away!
Having completed their mission, the two did not plunder the sect's wealth but left immediately.
After traveling a million miles, the two removed their black robes and flew side by side like ordinary passersby.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, you say... why target these Void Returning cultivators who create cultivation techniques?"
"Hmph, Brother Zhang, if you don't want to die, you'd better be careful. Those are not our business."
"Hehe... I just think, do you think there might be a cultivation technique that could counteract it..."
Upon hearing this, the two of them stopped their escape almost simultaneously.
The cultivator surnamed Shen looked at his companion and said coldly,
"Even if such a technique exists, does Fellow Daoist Zhang think that we, who have already had the divine seed planted in us, have any other way out?"
"Just saying, just saying..."
"Hmph! Brother Zhang, you're so curious. You'd better not ask me to join you on missions next time... I joined the cult hoping to live a few more years, not to lose my life like this! Let's part ways here! Farewell!"
The two then parted ways, seemingly returning to their respective sects...
This is not the only case of an attack on a Void Returning cultivator in the Central Continent.
Seventh-level sects...eighth-level sects, and even top-tier sects that had returned to the Void Realm while traveling, were all attacked.
In that unknown place,
A group of black-robed cultivators, whose auras were no less than those of Immortal Venerables, gathered. Their divine thoughts intertwined in the void, and countless ideas exchanged and collided.
"The eight top sects are hunting down the alien beasts, why don't we just try to win them over? If there's hope for transcendence, even the alien beasts can't refuse, right?"
"These great immortals always put everyone inside array diagrams when they go out, so we have no idea where the strange beasts are."
"They went out twice, teleported tens of thousands of times, and returned without encountering a single alien beast."
"If this continues, I'm afraid everyone will complain. I think we might as well use this to find out where the beast is!"
"Can!"
"Can!"
With that topic settled, the next item on the agenda was the assassination of a Void Returning cultivator.
Upon hearing that most of the targets had been eliminated, the group ceased further discussion.
It's just a matter of returning to the Void Realm; they don't even need to make a move.
Even if all of them exposed their identities, the top sect members would not dare to make a move easily.
Just then, another person raised a question.
"Has Zhang Wuji of the Five Elements Sect arranged for anyone to help him?"
"This guy seems to be really regarded as the representative of the Five Elements Sect, and he's always with the Great Immortal Venerable. I don't even know where he is now."
"But he'll always return to the Five Elements Sect. As long as we have people stationed outside the sect, we can always catch him... If only we could know this kid's background! See if he has any family or descendants, we could just capture him and lure him out."
"Don't we have a Celestial Venerable companion who is skilled in divination? Can't we ask him to take action?"
"No...we've already tried, and they say it's impossible to deduce."
"How... how can this not be deduced? Could it be that he's on our side?"
"....."
"Leave it for now, arrange for people to guard outside the Five Elements Sect, and make your move when the opportunity arises!"
"good"
"agree"
...

In the cultivation space, more than thirty years passed in the blink of an eye.
With a clone watching outside, there's no chance of exceeding the time limit.
Moreover, although time is accelerated tenfold within the cultivation space, Ye Feng's body does not actually age in the same way.
Perhaps it was the effect of the cultivation space itself, or perhaps it was because he had consumed so many trading points that the system simultaneously replenished his vitality.
Two days have already passed, and in about half a day, we will return to the Thousand Derivation Plains.
Ye Feng had to come out early.
Firstly, the long period of seclusion requires a break, as the main body and the clone are not in sync. Although Ye Feng has gotten used to it, it still has some impact.
Furthermore, the Five Elements Technique's Returning to Emptiness method has been fully deduced, and the magical power has been re-condensed, becoming even purer.
The concept of combining the eight trigrams has taken shape. The mission is complete, and it's time to go and see the Five Spirit Pool.
Ye Feng retracted his clone, returned to the first floor, and walked directly out of the Scripture Pavilion.
The instant he left the attic, an invisible scanning force swept over his body.
"The power of oblivion..."
This pavilion is the central immortal artifact used by all the Five Elements Secret Realms in the world to select disciples and make them forget their cultivation techniques!
Ye Feng is now a formal disciple, so of course he won't be affected by this power.
However, if a thief were to sneak into this place, even if he managed to steal the martial arts techniques, he would likely find it difficult to take them away.
The jade slip will be cleared, and the secret techniques learned in your mind will also be cleared!
Having examined so many jade slips in the Sutra Repository, Ye Feng gained a much deeper understanding of the Five Elements Sect's foundation.
If it weren't for the rarity of finding the Five Elements Spiritual Roots, how could the Five Elements Sect have fallen to its current state...?
"Sigh... If only I could sell this magical artifact!"
As Ye Feng was leaving, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"snort!"
"Uh... Senior, please calm down, it was just a joke... just a joke... haha."
