Eternal Life: Talent Grows with Age-Chapter 120 - 105: Martial Dao Genius, Five Elements Divine Skill

Chapter 120: Chapter 105: Martial Dao Genius, Five Elements Divine Skill

That night, everyone in the Lu Mansion—more than twenty people—got a share of the exotic serpent meat to eat.

This exotic beast meat is a major tonic, especially for ordinary folk, offering all sorts of benefits.

That night, who knows how many ate till their faces flushed, Essence, Qi, and Spirit brimming over—they stayed awake for a whole day and night, and came into the next day still full of energy, as lively as tigers.

Master Mo and the Protector Institute guards benefited even more. After eating, they all felt like they’d swallowed a hundred-year-old ginseng, their blood and Qi boiling over. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Master Mo had long been close to the True Qi Realm. Riding the boost from the exotic beast meat, he stood through the night practicing Pile Skills. At the break of dawn, he let out one breath of True Qi, sustaining it for three whole breaths.

"Ha! The True Qi Realm! I finally made it to the True Qi Realm!"

Master Mo let out a hearty laugh.

His eyes shone with joy.

The other guards looked at him with jealous faces and hurried up to congratulate him one after another.

"Looks like this exotic beast meat is really something for us Martial Artists!"

After a moment, Master Mo thought with great satisfaction.

Before, reaching Great Success with Pile Skill was already impressive. Now that he’d hit the True Qi Realm, maybe it was time to head up Great King Mountain and hunt some exotic beasts as a treat?

Just then, a fellow guard brought up exactly that thought.

"Second Master Lu is at True Qi Realm, and so are you, Master. With a few of us, can’t we go after those exotic beasts too?"

"Yeah! We could give it a try someday. If things get hairy, we can always run—beasts aren’t invincible!"

Even though they were all Martial Hall fighters, they had no real concept of exotic beasts, regarding them as treasure that a True Qi Realm cultivator could easily snatch.

However, just as Master Mo started to get tempted, someone walked into the practice yard.

"Master Mo, are you here? Come spar with me!"

Lu Chang’sheng called out.

Master Mo heard him and broke into a smile.

Through the years, he’d suffered plenty from Lu Chang’sheng in sparring, but now thought: I’m True Qi Realm, too. Even if I can’t beat him, at least I won’t be as hopeless as before!

Having sparred so many times, Master Mo believed he had a precise gauge of True Qi Realm power now.

Yet within a few minutes, all the guards watched in absolute silence as Master Mo lay sprawled on the ground.

Lu Chang’sheng had used just one move—sent Master Mo flying. If not for breaking through to True Qi Realm, that fall would’ve busted him up for sure.

"Second Master, your True Qi Realm—"

Master Mo was completely gobsmacked.

All told, Lu Chang’sheng had only been at True Qi Realm for a little over four years—how was the gap this huge?

It even felt like Lu Chang’sheng hadn’t used half his real strength.

"I’m not like other people who just stepped into the True Qi Realm." Lu Chang’sheng proceeded to explain the differences to Master Mo and the other guards, making sure they understood the clear distinctions.

He then mentioned the exotic giant python.

When they heard even Lu Chang’sheng almost died fighting the giant python, the guards broke out in a cold sweat.

If not for Lu Chang’sheng’s advice, they would’ve gone beast-hunting and ended up dead, no bones left to bury.

"Exotic beasts are born gifted. Without top-tier True Qi Realm power, don’t go looking for them lightly."

Having said this, Lu Chang’sheng took his leave.

Soon enough, he arrived in the training chamber.

As he pushed the door open, his body instinctively tensed. Inside, Fu was thrashing wildly about.

Lu Chang’sheng realized Fu was on the verge of another abnormal episode, so he unshackled him and set him loose.

"The fourth time!"

In a little over four years, Fu had shown signs of abnormality three times, and each time, he’d received a word from the Immortal Worship Formula.

So far, he’d gathered Immortal Music Spring, Golden Bull Horn, and Xiang Girl Shell.

All of these were already known.

Lu Chang’sheng was in no rush; he waited patiently for what would come next.

The next two were the most crucial—they would complete the last two missing materials for the Immortal Worship Formula.

Since he hadn’t expected Fu to shift again today, Lu Chang’sheng had to postpone his departure by a day.

That afternoon, he suddenly felt a jolt run through his body and pulled up the Light Curtain Panel.

"You have achieved thirty years of age. Root Bone Value +1!"

Nothing else changed. Only, his Martial Dao talent had advanced from Genius to Extraordinary Genius.

In an instant, Lu Chang’sheng felt a surge of unparalleled clarity—every Pile Skill, and over a month’s worth of battle with the White Ape, all streamed into his mind like rivers converging in the sea.

He instinctively began to cultivate, starting with the most basic Flood Stake, then the ultimate Divine Power Stake, and finally Five Treasures True Skill.

By the afternoon, his whole body shook, and he saw new changes appear on the Light Curtain Panel.

"Five Elements Divine Skill (Method) (Incomplete)"

"Entry: (0.5 years)"

······

Through accumulation and with the help of his extraordinary talent, Lu Chang’sheng deduced an entirely new Martial Arts method—the Five Elements Divine Skill.

"Incomplete? Is it because I haven’t accumulated enough?"

He speculated to himself.

In other words, the current Five Elements Divine Skill could only let him break from True Qi Realm into Innate Realm.

If he wished to progress further in the Innate Realm, he’d need even more accumulation.

"Five months—maybe even less, if I toss in more variables."

That would include medicinal meals, more training time, and continuous combat—all of which could shorten the timeline.

"If I want to save Teacher, best to wait until I reach Innate before making my move!"

Lu Chang’sheng set his mind.

But he couldn’t stay in Fufeng Town; it was too far. If anything happened, by the time he caught word and rushed over, it’d be too late.

At night, Fu returned, and before Lu Chang’sheng, wrote out the name of the fourth exotic item.
