Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 290 - 160: Five Elements Perfected, Stone Essence and Dragon Essence, Mastery over Five Thunders (Double Length)

Chapter 290: Chapter 160: Five Elements Perfected, Stone Essence and Dragon Essence, Mastery over Five Thunders (Double Length)

The five viscera shimmered with golden light, each belonging to one of the five elements, with an aura that seemed beyond human swirling around him.

Swish!

In an instant, Xu Guang swung his two palms, a series of palm prints continuously appearing and disappearing beside him, like phantom bubbles.

On the open ground, his body technique was dazzling, his Qi Force like a cloud lingering around him, causing the air to appear slightly distorted.

The Qi Force seemed to flow as he desired, sometimes turning into fire, sometimes ice, sometimes growing roots, sometimes transforming into gold...

The five elements circulated freely, as if a celestial being had descended to the world.

With the movement of his thoughts.

XU Guang’s aura suddenly contracted, appearing like that of an ordinary person without any traces of cultivation.

Not a single breath of aura flowed out.

The Withering and Flourishing Cicada of the Five Elements was complete! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Its effect was stronger than Xu Guang had imagined.

His current Qi Force was five times greater than those in the same realm, and with the True Meaning of Life and Death added to the ever-enduring cycle of the five elements, it wasn’t simply a fivefold difference, but at least tenfold!

The thickness of his Qi Force was just one aspect; the greatest boost to his combat power was the ability to freely circulate the five elements, catching opponents off guard. In his realm as a Second Shedding Zhenren, it was not difficult to instantly defeat a Three-Metamorphosis Zhenren.

In just two months of sedimentation, his strength had vastly improved compared to when he left Zouchuan Dao, a transformation akin to being reborn.

Besides, under the circulation of the five elements, as long as there were sufficient Spirit Crystals daily, he could produce a strand of Gold Attribute in a day, which was a terrifying speed.

Within at most six months, breaking through to become a Three-Metamorphosis Zhenren would be certain.

His recent accumulation was indeed profound.

...

At the Martial Arts Academy on the outskirts of Chi Yao County, the entire county’s populace, under the publicity of the Red Flame Sect, knew of this marvelous place.

Here, their children can undergo transformative changes. If they succeed in learning, changing the family’s environment and bringing glory to their ancestors is just a casual matter.

For things that benefit themselves, the populace is always willing to cooperate.

XU Guang only had to arrange for Xu Fang of the Red Flame Sect to hold an event to distribute chickens each time he went to the countryside, and the stream of ’chives’, no, disciples, just kept coming.

Amidst such a grand occasion, the Martial Arts Academy already had a slight reputation throughout Chifeng Prefecture.

However, Red Flame Ancestor, being low-key, just wanted to give back to his hometown Chi Yao County, so the news about the Martial Arts Academy didn’t stir up too much of a wave in Chifeng Prefecture.

This situation was the best outcome.

A hundred-acre campus is quite extensive for ten thousand people, but what if all those ten thousand are martial artists?

The academy recruits youths from eight to fifteen years old. Although Chi Yao County is not particularly small, combined with the surrounding towns, the population is about two hundred thousand.

At this stage, there are roughly twenty thousand youths in the entire county.

Being able to enroll ten thousand, Xu Guang was already satisfied.

The land area naturally needed expansion.

XU Guang stepped out of his room, with improved cultivation and greatly enhanced combat power, feeling joyous, and he inexplicably found everything pleasing to the eye.

Today was the day of the academy’s expansion completion, many people had already arrived outside, and it was quite crowded, with the flow of cars and horses like dragons and seas of people, bustling with excitement.

Outside the academy gate, Xu Guang had several sets of long firecrackers brought, their red cords trailing on the ground, and ignited them with Fire Stone.

The crackling sound immediately attracted the attention of all the youths in the academy.

Seeing Xu Guang in a good mood, some bold children dashed out. As Xi Guang said nothing, the rest of the children rushed out like a swarm.

The disciples of the Red Flame Sect who came to help at the academy quickly stopped them to prevent injury from the firecrackers.

Cao Xiu, only nine years old this year, stood in the crowd and said, "I can extinguish a firecracker with one hand."

Beside him stood a robust-looking youth whose clothes seemed washed white, "Don’t go."

Stopping Cao Xiu, apart from their relationship, there was also the fact that he liked the academy’s environment very much, and didn’t want Cao Xiu to have an accident due to recklessness, causing Master Xu’s academy to fail.

Although Master Xu’s daily tests are tough, he believes he can sooner or later overcome Master Xu’s aura and become someone who can approach within three feet.

He and Cao Xiu are friends, and he is already eleven years old this year.

This is an age that is somewhat awkward; having been mingling on the streets, the academy has given him a lot of warmth, and his physique has already become much more robust than when he first arrived at the academy.

With Cao Xiu being held by him, he couldn’t break free, only able to watch helplessly as the firecrackers were set off in the distance.

Soon, the firecrackers finished, and Xu Guang bowingly addressed those who’d arrived.

"I appreciate your efforts in coming."

"Master Xu is too kind."

"Master Xu’s contributions to Chi Yao County are remembered by us all. Today is the day of the academy’s expansion completion, a day of great joy for our Chi Yao County, and we, the five major families, have prepared gifts for Master Xu and the academy."

The rugged-looking Master Mo exhibited unusual politeness in front of Xu Guang, with a fiery temper, having served as county lord of Chi Yao County for the past three years.

If outsiders witnessed Master Mo’s attitude, they would likely be astounded.

Xu Guang just received the gifts with a smile, without saying much.

Sometimes, certain gifts cannot be refused.

For instance, today, not accepting these gifts would only make the high-ups of these families suspect ulterior motives.

XU Guang wasn’t concerned about these matters but didn’t want trouble either; he just wanted to cultivate his chives, while other issues were of no concern to him.

Behind Xu Guang, Crimson Flame Sect Leader Xu Fang, naturally guided several patriarchs into the small courtyard where a banquet had already been prepared by Fang.

Being deserving of being hosted by Xu Guang, in fact, wasn’t many people; there were only two or three banquet tables in the courtyard.

There were celebrities from Chi Yao County, middle-class affluent households, and even two honest-looking rural folks.
