I, Who Hate Marine So Much, Have Become A Future Nika?

Chapter 99: Five Spirit Town Sealing Grand Handprint (Please Subscribe)

"The cultivation effect is not as good, and the cultivation speed is not as fast... It's not surprising that I gave up on you all!"

Zhong Cang was afraid of one thing - after advancing to the True Form Diagram of the Five Organs Divine Palace, he gained the ability of the Five Elements Cycle.

Then, after advancing in the Qi Consumption Technique, he also gained this ability.

If he were to obtain it again in the Five Beasts Infusion Technique, then he would be in trouble.

Afraid of such a situation, for the next few hours, Zhong Cang focused his entire body and mind on practicing the Ignorant Heart Sword Art.

However, while practicing the Ignorant Heart Sword Art, Zhong Cang experienced a flaw unique to him in the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram.

The technique was constantly operating, and the proficiency of this technique would occasionally increase.

The combination of the two resulted in insights about the Five Elements and some formations occasionally surging into Zhong Cang's mind.

This disrupted Zhong Cang's practice of the Ignorant Heart Sword Art to some extent.

Fortunately, this flaw was quickly resolved by Zhong Cang.

After the accumulation of Sword Heart, Zhong Cang's thoughts instantly became focused.

All distractions, even the insights that surged into his mind, were forcefully suppressed at the bottom of Zhong Cang's Spirit Lake by his Sword Heart.

When the accumulated insights from the Sword Heart receded, these insights would rush out and merge into Zhong Cang's mind, where he would assimilate and understand them.

After several hours of this, Zhong Cang, who had been wholeheartedly practicing, was pleased to find that the progress of his Ignorant Heart Sword Art had increased a little.

But soon, the appearance of something made Zhong Cang unsure whether to cry or laugh.

He had focused all his body and mind on practicing the Ignorant Heart Sword Art, but after the practice, he integrated the insights accumulated from the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram.

Zhong Cang was speechless to find that the progress of the two techniques was almost the same, or even faster for the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram.

"..."

This situation really left Zhong Cang at a loss for words.

After a long silence, he shook his head and prepared to close the attribute panel.

But just before closing it, he saw something that astonished him.

Even if he hadn't practiced, the proficiency of the Qi Consumption Technique and the Five Beasts Infusion Technique had also increased.

"Huh!?"

"Why..."

Before he could finish his questioning, Zhong Cang realized the reason.

The Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram included both the Qi Consumption Technique and the Five Beasts Infusion Technique.

And since the advancement of the latter two could reduce the difficulty of cultivating the former, the increase in proficiency of the former would naturally drive the growth of the Qi Consumption Technique and the Five Beasts Infusion Technique.

"So, I don't need to worry about giving up at all. As long as I cultivate the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram, the Qi Consumption Technique and the Five Beasts Infusion Technique will continue to improve!"

"..."

The current situation made Zhong Cang realize that his previous dilemma was somewhat unnecessary.

However, this was ultimately a good thing, and as a result, Zhong Cang's mood was mostly happy.

...

Ignorant Heart Sword Art, Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower, Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram, sleeping... In the next ten days or so, Zhong Cang rotated between practicing these three techniques.

Hmm... It seems that Zhong Cang doesn't need to worry about the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram.

From the previous four techniques, he reduced it to two, which gave Zhong Cang more time for cultivation and made his thoughts wander.

"Should I find another technique to practice?"

This idea took root in Zhong Cang's mind.

Especially with the current opportunity, which was very rare, it made Zhong Cang even more eager.

In the end, Zhong Cang's choice was... seize the opportunity.

"The opening of the Flowing Light Grotto-Heaven, this opportunity may be exaggerated to say it only comes once in a hundred years, but it is indeed rare, and I can't waste this chance."

"However, I can only practice the first one or two levels of the Flowing Light Grotto-Heaven's technique without hindrance. For the rest, I need to contribute points to exchange for them, so I can't practice too many, at most one... or two."

"At most two, any more and I won't be able to practice or exchange for them."

With this idea in mind, Zhong Cang walked out of his private training room.

Then, he discovered that there were very few fellow disciples who were originally wandering in the stone tablet forest.

Obviously, most people had already chosen their techniques and entered the secret chambers to cultivate.

Not caring about this, Zhong Cang patrolled along the stone tablets.

"Qingling Finger, Hunkyuan Palm, Tianqing Sword Technique..."

After circling around the periphery, Zhong Cang didn't find anything satisfactory, so he headed towards the inner area.

This time, he walked straight to the core, where the Earth Level techniques were located.

After taking a look around, Zhong Cang quickly noticed a high-grade Earth Level palm technique that caught his eye.

He chose palm techniques instead of sword techniques because this palm technique was very compatible with the technique he was currently cultivating.

[Five Spirits Great Handprint]

This was the name of the palm technique that Zhong Cang was interested in.

As the name suggests, it was a spell that focused on sealing and suppressing.

The so-called Five Spirits referred to the five elements.

And the principle of sealing and suppressing was that everything in the world could not escape the derivation of the five elements.

Conversely, by using the principle of the generation and restriction cycle of the five elements to form an array, one could seal everything.

"The power is not bad, and more importantly, it is related to the five elements. In the future, it will save me a lot of effort in cultivation. I'll learn it!"

Determined, Zhong Cang immediately touched the stone tablet that represented the true meaning of the Five Spirits Great Handprint.

"Buzz..."

As the two made contact, numerous pieces of information instantly flooded into Zhong Cang's mind.

It could only be said that there were numerous pieces of information, not a large amount. Compared to the true techniques in the Daoist scriptures, the information about spells was much less.

And the cultivation of the first layer of the Five Spirits Great Handprint was extremely simple for Zhong Cang.

As long as he mixed the spiritual energy of the five elements and released it with his palm, it would be considered a success.

After a simple test, Zhong Cang successfully entered the first level and obtained the first characteristic of the Five Spirits Great Handprint: Five Spirits Great Handprint.

"Buzz..."

After learning it, Zhong Cang once again placed his palm on the stone tablet, and instantly, another wave of information flooded into his mind.

Compared to the first level, this time the cultivation became more difficult.

The second level of the technique required Zhong Cang to have a deep understanding of the generation cycle of the five elements.

The Five Spirits Great Handprint released by his spiritual energy had to have the ability to circulate in order to enter the second stage.

At the same time, the circulation of the five elements would make it extremely difficult for Zhong Cang to break free from the continuous release of the Five Spirits Great Handprint.

However, this was not easy. Zhong Cang tried several times but failed.

However, although he failed to release the Five Spirits Great Handprint, because he constantly had the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Great Array in his body, he developed a new move - the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Great Handprint.

"Buzz..."

Using his mind to drive the five types of spiritual energy in his body, Zhong Cang gathered them in the palm of his hand.

Then, these five strands of spiritual energy vibrated in Zhong Cang's palm.

When they vibrated at a familiar frequency, Zhong Cang suddenly struck out with his palm.

"Boom!"

As his palm extended forward, a colorful spiritual energy palm print flew out from Zhong Cang's hand.

The palm print broke through the air and flew forward with unparalleled momentum.

Unlike ordinary palm prints, Zhong Cang's Five Elements Spirit Gathering Palm, after being released, did not gradually become ethereal as the distance increased.

Instead, under a special rhythm, the surrounding spiritual energy actually gathered towards the Five Spirits Great Handprint, causing the released spiritual energy palm print to grow larger and larger.

By the time it was thirty meters away, the palm print released by Zhong Cang had already reached a size of three to five meters.

The enormous Spirit Qi Mudra was clearly powerful just by looking at its size.

"Boom..."
