Chapter 833: A Hundred Years of Seclusion, Merging the True Essence of the Five Elements

Editor: Henyee Translations

However, Jiang Chengxuan paid no heed to their desperate shouts.

Within the killing array, the void fissures became increasingly numerous.

With a sizzling sound, the void fissures sliced the bodies of Divine Lord Jade Face and Divine Lord Chaos Fiend into pieces.

Their domains dissipated into nothingness along with them.

Even though they quickly reformed their bodies, the relentless cycle of being disintegrated and then reconstructed, due to their inability to escape, continued without end.

After some time, their figures ceased to appear within the killing array altogether.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan immediately knew that the two Seethrough powerhouses from Joyous Union Valley had likely truly perished within the Void Killing Array.

Buzz!

At the same time.

The Void Killing Array seemed to have exhausted its last vestige of power and slowly dissipated from existence.

After ensuring that the presence of Divine Lord Jade Face and Divine Lord Chaos Fiend was indeed gone, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan did not linger any longer and quickly made their way back towards the Haoran Sect.

Some days later.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan returned to the Haoran Sect together.

Upon their return, they went directly to Shenwu Peak, where they met with their Shifu, Qin Shenwu.

Jiang Chengxuan then briefed Qin Shenwu about the mission, particularly mentioning the ambush by Divine Lord Jade Face and Divine Lord Chaos Fiend.

The calm expression of Qin Shenwu darkened upon hearing this, indicating his immediate understanding that there must be a spy from their sect within Heavenly Pillar City, likely from Joyous Union Valley.

Chengxuan, Ruyan, I will see justice done for you.

The traitor cannot hide nor run.

Also, we need to recalculate your contributions for this mission.

Supporting Heavenly Pillar City is one thing, but slaying two Seethrough cultivators is quite another.

I will take care of this matter for you.

For now, you need not concern yourselves with the war.

For the next hundred years, there will be no missions for you.

Just focus on your cultivation and strive to break through to the Seethrough stage.

Only then can I truly rest assured about you.”

“Yes, Shifu!”

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan bowed and accepted their Shifu’s command. Soon after, the couple did not linger on Shenwu Peak and returned to Jiang Chengxuan’s mountain, Cloud Mist Peak, within the Haoran Sect.

Upon their return to Cloud Mist Peak, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan called upon Jiang Anran to offer guidance on her cultivation and inquired about the missions she had undertaken due to the ongoing war.

According to Jiang Anran, she had taken on several related tasks, including assisting a Void Returning elder in guarding a location for three years. Coincidentally, the elder responsible for that area was an acquaintance of Jiang Chengxuan, Wen Tao, and Hong Mei.

Jiang Chengxuan then personally wrote a letter for Jiang Anran to deliver to Wen Tao and Hong Mei, which would undoubtedly aid her in her forthcoming tasks.     6

After Jiang Anran left, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan wasted no time and began their seclusion.

Jiang Chengxuan had a clear goal for this seclusion. He aimed to comprehend the true essence of the fire element within the next hundred years.

If time allowed, he also hoped to elevate his weapon refinement and talisman making skills to Level 7.

However, comprehending the true essence of the last element of the Five Elements was not an easy task.

Ten years passed, and Jiang Chengxuan had only completed a small part of his understanding of the fire element.

At this rate, a hundred years might not be sufficient, as comprehending the true essence of the elements becomes increasingly difficult and time- consuming.

Realizing the challenge ahead, Jiang Chengxuan decided to use a Enlightenment Pill from his system space to aid his comprehension.

Perhaps, only with such a pill could he significantly accelerate his understanding of the fire element’s true essence.

With this thought, Jiang Chengxuan hesitated no longer and consumed the Enlightenment Pill.

Almost immediately, insights flooded his mind, and he swiftly delved into the deeper understanding of the fire element’s true essence.

Thirty years later.

In his cultivation chamber, flames suddenly surged around Jiang Chengxuan, as if imbued with life, morphing into various shapes at his will.

Most importantly, these transformed flames were filled with spirituality. They were definitely not ordinary flames or divine powers.

“Finally, I have comprehended the true essence of the fire element,” Jiang Chengxuan murmured as he slowly opened his eyes, a smile creeping across his lips.

Now, having grasped the true essence of all five elements, what remained was to merge these distinct essences into a unified True Essence of the Five Elements.

At that time, even without breaking through to the Seethrough stage, he could potentially defeat an ordinary Seethrough powerhouse.

In fact.

For now, Jiang Chengxuan felt confident enough to confront a Seethrough powerhouse head-on, perhaps even to defeat one.

Of course.

Jiang Chengxuan’s aspirations didn’t stop there.

Beyond merging the True Essences of the Five Elements, his goal was to create rule-based divine powers unique to these elements.

Yes.

Rule-based divine powers, superior to ordinary divine powers, were something many Seethrough powerhouses hadn’t achieved.

Anyone who could accomplish this could be considered a formidable Seethrough cultivator, capable of overwhelming an ordinary Seethrough cultivator, much like how a cultivator who has comprehended the true essence of the elements vastly outmatches one who has not.

The difference is stark.

Yet, achieving such a feat requires step-by-step progress.

To create his unique Five Elements rule-based divine powers, Jiang Chengxuan first needed to merge the five distinct essences into a complete True Essence of the Five Elements.

This process alone took Jiang Chengxuan fifty years, during which his mastery of the Five Elements True Essence evolved to rival the power of semi-rule- based divine powers, forming a force as formidable as the domain of a Seethrough powerhouse, if not more so.
