Five Elements Thunder Spell, Laurel Branch

Chapter 21 Five Elements Thunder Technique, Laurel Branch

After handing over the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen to Fengdu for refining, Lin Yang returned to his previous monotonous daily routine.

Every day is still just cultivation, cultivation, cultivation. Occasionally, he'll emerge from seclusion to discuss things with the Grand Elder or give some pointers to the younger members of the clan.

The Phoenix Clan's fortunes are slowly beginning to recover, and some talented members of the clan are clearly being greatly affected, gradually becoming outstanding.

As the head of the clan, Lin Yang naturally had to do his best to cultivate these elites within the clan.

The necessary resources must be provided.

And especially Kong Xuan, his own elder brother.

Lin Yang finally met him in person.

When the brothers reunited, Lin Yang naturally showed his warmth and cared for Kong Xuan with utmost devotion.

This warmed Kong Xuan's heart, but also left him somewhat speechless.

Based on the order of egg laying, he should be Lin Yang's older brother.

Moreover, Lin Yang also calls him "Big Brother".

But judging from Lin Yang's behavior, he felt that Lin Yang was more like his older brother.

And Lin Yang's cultivation level far surpassed his own.

This spurred Kong Xuan to work harder and catch up, otherwise he would lose face as the elder brother.

Lin Yang was naturally aware of Kong Xuan's thoughts.

While finding it amusing, Lin Yang didn't dare to underestimate him.

After all, he knew about Kong Xuan's past achievements.

He is second only to a sage!

Even during the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, those veteran powerful figures were no longer active in the field.

That's how Kong Xuan earned such a title.

This also shows how amazing Kong Xuan is; he is absolutely gifted.

Of course, Lin Yang was not jealous of this at all, and instead gave Kong Xuan plenty of resources.

He wanted to see if Kong Xuan could achieve even greater success with the resources he had accumulated.

True sainthood, not merely being second only to a saint.

Once Kong Xuan becomes a saint, with his five-colored divine light, if he were to capture a saint again, then even a saint would probably find it difficult to escape.

In the blink of an eye, time flew by, and quite some time passed. Finally, the second lecture at Zixiao Palace came to an end.

The powerful beings who went to hear the teachings returned one after another.

A series of earth-shattering auras were sensed by Lin Yang as soon as he returned to the primordial world.

He couldn't help but look up and saw streaks of light flying past in the sky.

Many of the escape lights emitted extremely strong auras.

Lin Yang was very familiar with this kind of aura, because his Heavenly Dao avatar, Tai Chu, and the Grand Elder both possessed this kind of aura.

This is the aura of a quasi-saint. In other words, after this round of sermons, someone has already severed the three corpses after Hongjun passed down the method of severing the three corpses?

Lin Yang frowned, then relaxed his brow.

His path differed from others; he didn't need to be envious of others' faster cultivation progress.

No matter how fast it goes, this road is still a dead end.

They'll have their moment of regret then.

As long as I proceed steadily and take it one step at a time, I will eventually see the hope of attaining enlightenment.

……

"Ding! The Supreme Qing Tongtian of the Three Pure Ones is challenging powerful figures from all directions. Does the host wish to step out of seclusion and accept the challenge?"

"Option 1: Accept the mission, leave the mountain to fight, and you will receive the superior innate spiritual treasure, the Yin-Yang Flowing Light Sword."

"Option 2: Refuse the mission and you will receive the Five Elements Thunder Technique as a reward."

After hearing the options offered by the system, Lin Yang couldn't help but curl his lip; it was just a mere high-grade innate spiritual treasure.

Does he still covet this now? Oh no, or rather, he's never coveted this kind of thing, okay?

Lin Yang had no desire to fight Tongtian, that battle maniac.

He directly chose option two. Lin Yang examined the Five Elements Thunder Technique that had suddenly appeared in his mind. He discovered that it really was a simple Five Elements Thunder Technique.

Metal-elemental Divine Thunder, Wood-elemental Divine Thunder, Water-elemental Divine Thunder, Fire-elemental Divine Thunder, and Earth-elemental Divine Thunder.

After thinking about it for a moment, Lin Yang didn't find the supernatural power objectionable.

Although it is simple, it is not bad to use this supernatural power to get started with the Five Elements and comprehend the Way of the Five Elements.

Immediately, Lin Yang closed his eyes slightly and began to refine the power of the five elements within his five internal organs.

The power of metal gathers in the lungs, the power of wood gathers in the liver, the power of water gathers in the kidneys, the power of fire gathers in the heart, and the power of earth gathers in the spleen.

Lin Yang cultivated for hundreds of years and mastered the Five Elements Divine Thunder.

Not only did Lin Yang gain a basic understanding of the Five Elements and their laws, but he also discovered that the principles of Yin and Yang were hidden within the Thunder Technique.

Therefore, by chance, Lin Yang obtained two major laws in one fell swoop after refining the Five Elements Thunder Technique.

This is truly an unexpected delight.

……

"Ding! The Demon Emperor Jun has taken a liking to the two fairies of the Taiyin Star, Xihe and Changxi, and is obsessed with them day and night. Should the host steal them away?"

"Option 1: Accept the mission. Success will reward you with the superior innate spiritual treasure, the Taiyin Treasure Box."

"Option 2: Refuse the mission, and you will receive two laurel branches."

"The Lunar Treasure Box?"

Upon hearing the system notification again, Lin Yang was taken aback, then shook his head. It was a pity it wasn't the Moonlight Box.

If it were the Moonlight Box, Lin Yang might be somewhat interested. But for this mere top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Taiyin Box, he was willing to sell his body.

Lin Yang directly chose to refuse.

There are two branches of the laurel tree.

Lin Yang looked at the two branches he had just received. There were really only two branches, not even a single leaf.

Bald.

Lin Yang was speechless.

"I remember that osmanthus trees can be propagated by cuttings, right?" Lin Yang muttered to himself, though he wasn't entirely sure.

After all, this laurel tree is no ordinary laurel tree.

One of the top ten spiritual roots!

If it were that easy to grow successfully, there wouldn't only be that one tree on the Taiyin Star in the primordial world.

If it were a peach tree instead, that would be fine.

Lin Yang directly sent the two branches into the Primordial Realm.

As soon as the branches were brought in, Tai Chu appeared and looked at the two branches that Lin Yang had brought.

There was obvious excitement in Tai Chu's eyes.

"Are these two branches useful?" Lin Yang asked.

"It's useful, of course it's useful."

Tai Chu snatched them away and said to Lin Yang, "These two branches can be nurtured to grow two laurel trees."

"Is that exaggerated?"

Lin Yang asked in surprise, "Then I'll go to the Moon Star and pick more. You can't just plant as many as you want, can you?"

Tai Chu immediately sneered and said, "You're probably overthinking things."

"You think these two branches the system gave you are just ordinary laurel branches?" Tai Chu retorted.

"Isn't that right?"

"Of course not. These two branches contain a great deal of laurel tree essence, which is why they were able to be cultivated into new laurel trees in this Primordial Realm."

Taichu explained, "And if you go to the Moon Star to pick branches from the laurel tree, you will not only gain nothing, but you will also encounter a lot of trouble."

Lin Yang shook his head and said, "How would I know? Anyway, here you go with these two branches."

After saying that, Lin Yang ignored the smug Tai Chu and left the Tai Chu Realm.
