Just like that, half a year flew by.

Long Xuan heavily closed a book with the words "Five Elements Palm" inscribed on the cover. In the lower right corner of the cover, a small line of text read:

— Written by Long Xuan

This book, titled "Five Elements Palm," was a spiritual technique he had arduously created over the past six months.

Long Xuan felt elated and accomplished, a faint smile on his lips.

Creating such an impressive spiritual technique made him feel proud and invincible, filled with a sense of youthful exuberance and confidence. He felt as if he was about to soar.

What kind of spiritual technique could make him so proud?

The "Five Elements Palm" is a palm technique he developed using the cyclical principles of the five elements, divided into five forms.

First Form: Blazing Flame Palm

The spiritual energy circulates in the order of Earth → Metal → Water → Wood → Fire.

Second Form: Life-Destruction Palm

The spiritual energy circulates in the order of Fire → Earth → Metal → Water → Wood.

Third Form: Surging Wave Palm

The spiritual energy circulates in the order of Wood → Fire → Earth → Metal → Water.

Fourth Form: Vajra Palm

The spiritual energy circulates in the order of Water → Wood → Fire → Earth → Metal.

Fifth Form: Tathagata Palm

The spiritual energy circulates in the order of Metal → Water → Wood → Fire → Earth.

The first form, Blazing Flame Palm, was designed to unleash flames.

Starting with Earth as the initial element and progressively advancing, the Blazing Flame Palm became terrifyingly powerful.

If other fire-attribute spiritual techniques could produce flames, then his Blazing Flame Palm could unleash a sea of fire—a vast, potent firestorm with a wide attack range.

Using this sea of fire for large-scale attacks left enemies with nowhere to hide.

It could be said that his normal attack was equivalent to others\' ultimate moves.

Immensely powerful.

Even among fire-based spiritual techniques, his Blazing Flame Palm could dominate the majority of fire-attribute techniques in this world.

Since the cycle ending with Fire could create the Blazing Flame Palm, by the same logic, ending with the other elements could naturally create techniques of the remaining four attributes.

This required him to brainstorm four more ideas to complete the "Five Elements Palm."

This time, it wasn’t as challenging. Since they were part of a suite of spiritual techniques, the attack methods he devised matched the characteristics of the mutated spiritual energy.

Different from ordinary spiritual energy, mutated spiritual energy had unique traits. Each type of mutated spiritual energy was unique, with its own characteristics.

The characteristics of the mutated spiritual energy from the "Ten Absolute Scripture" could be summarized with one word each:

Fire—burn, Wood—grow, Water—dense, Metal—solid, Earth—heavy.

Thus, designing the remaining four forms centered around growth, density, solidity, and heaviness ensured a perfect match.

For example, the characteristic of Wood is growth. Growth represents the power of Life, and Long Xuan first thought of a maturation technique often seen in cultivation novels—a spiritual technique that could accelerate the growth of spiritual herbs. Unexpectedly, he successfully developed it.

The Life-Destruction Palm could accelerate the growth of spiritual herbs, but when used on a person, it had the opposite effect, destroying a person\'s vitality and causing irreversible damage.

Therefore, this technique was named the Life-Destruction Palm rather than the Maturation Palm.

Moreover, while the Life-Destruction Palm’s ability to accelerate the growth of spiritual herbs was formidable, it was limited by one\'s cultivation level.

The higher the cultivation level and the more spiritual energy available, the more years it could accelerate.

With a low cultivation level and limited spiritual energy, the accelerated growth would naturally be minimal.

Currently, he was only at the Spirit Gathering stage, and the mutated spiritual energy was still in the initial fusion phase of two attributes. The maturation effect was negligible, at best accelerating growth by ten days with a single palm strike, making it rather impractical. In the short term, its destructive aspect was far more useful.

As for the latter three forms of the "Five Elements Palm"—Surging Wave Palm, Vajra Palm, and Tathagata Palm—he already had ideas and had prepared drafts.

If the Blazing Flame Palm was for group attacks, the Tathagata Palm was for single attacks, the Surging Wave Palm for ranged attacks, and the Vajra Palm for close combat.

The abilities of the five forms of the "Five Elements Palm" were comprehensive.

However, due to time constraints and his fatigue, he had to pause the development of the last three forms temporarily...

Long Xuan took out a communication talisman from his storage bag, given by Li Laodao. It roughly conveyed that Li Laodao planned to hunt spiritual beasts in the Ten Thousand Mountains and invited him to join the team.

Previously, he would have refused without a second thought, finding the wilderness too dangerous and preferring the comfort of his cozy nest.

But this time, he couldn\'t refuse. Recently, there were signs of spiritual beasts gathering in the Ten Thousand Mountains, indicating a potential beast tide.

Nearby experts had issued a statement requiring all itinerant cultivators to go to the Ten Thousand Mountains to clear the spiritual beasts, preventing the beast tide from threatening villages.

This was a mandatory order. With a beast tide imminent, everyone had a responsibility and couldn\'t stand aside.

So, he had to pause his research on spiritual techniques and prepare to venture into the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Li Laodao\'s invitation came at the right time, so he agreed to join the team.

He was also interested in hunting spiritual beasts. In his previous life, animals could have parasites, so it was reasonable to assume that the spiritual beasts in this world could have parasites too.
