Chapter 505: Chapter 106: Earth Element Spleen Temple!_3
Ning Zhuo began to refine the Five Organs Temple Spirit Divine Skills, revolving around the method of Blood Sacrifice.
Improving cultivation techniques was never an easy task.
Yet, Ning Zhuo felt that this most challenging step was somewhat easier than when he had first delved into the Demon Dao techniques.
After spending a day and a half, Ning Zhuo completed the refinement.
Originally, the Five Organs Temple Spirit Divine Skill was a cultivation technique focused on cultivating the Qi Sea of the Middle Dantian to transform the physical body, which allowed for a swift increase in Mana and offered great control over the Five Element Spiritual Energy.
Now, however, Ning Zhuo had drastically reduced it, extracting only the part pertaining to the physical body’s transformation and combining it with the Demon Dao Blood Sacrifice method, forming a new Five Internal Organs Temple Spirit God Skill!
Ning Zhuo examined the results for a moment, feeling satisfied with his work, and immediately sprang into action.
He went to the cabin and woke up Sun Lingtong.
As Sun Lingtong emerged from his stone clothes, he was astonished to hear Ning Zhuo’s plan. “What? Little Zhuo, you want to cremate the Old Monster in Stone?”
Sun Lingtong couldn’t help but feel a sense of attachment to the Old Monster in Stone’s body after cultivating with it so many times.
Ning Zhuo nodded, “Boss, I am very confident.”
Sun Lingtong nodded, stowed away the Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat and began to observe.
First, Ning Zhuo activated the Divine Power Stone Cast Earth Treasure, releasing all the protective layers around the stone ball.
Following that, he activated the Cremation Prajnaparamita Soul-Resolving Scripture and began to incinerate the stone ball.
The stone ball itself was a congregation of Nascent Soul Level Treasure materials, highly resistant to burning, and it took quite a while before Spiritual Nature began to fly out.
While Ning Zhuo continued to burn, he also absorbed this Spiritual Nature.
Only when the Spiritual Nature had reached a sufficient level did he extinguish the flames.
Next, he took out a slender awl and carefully carved a tiny hole, piercing through to the stone heart.
Through the narrow opening, Ning Zhuo could already see the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Earth Core that lay hidden in the innermost part of the stone heart.
This Earth Core was the true form of the Old Monster in Stone.
“Let me do it, let me do it!” Sun Lingtong couldn’t contain himself and volunteered eagerly.
Ning Zhuo stepped aside a little.
Sun Lingtong giggled with a smile, took a leap, and landed in front of the stone ball.
“Hey!”
With a childish grunt, he stretched out his short arms as wide as he could and tried his best to encompass the stone ball.
He lifted the stone ball and began to sway it side to side.
Like gold sand, the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Earth Core inside began to pour out from the hole.
The stone ball was incredibly heavy, and in the past, Sun Lingtong wouldn’t have been able to move it at all. But now, with his drastically improved physical condition and increased strength, he was not only able to lift it but continually shake it.
Sun Lingtong gritted his teeth, his little face turning red with strain, and with a thud, he set the stone ball back down.
“It’s still quite heavy; nearly ran out of power,” Sun Lingtong thought to himself, rather anxious—not because he was afraid of the stone ball falling on him, but because he was nervous about making a fool of himself in front of his brothers.
Sun Lingtong adjusted his collar, tried to act nonchalant as he exhaled, and then turned to look at Ning Zhuo.
His face was flushed, but he tried to appear calm as he raised an eyebrow at Ning Zhuo, “How about that, eh? Little Zhuo.”
Ning Zhuo ignored his reddened face and simply gave a thumbs-up, “Boss, as expected of you.”
“Giggling!” Sun Lingtong immediately stood with hands on hips, tilting his head back in pride.
“Little Zhuo, using the Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat to nourish the physical body is truly fantastic.”
“I strongly suggest you follow my example. There’s no rush to dismantle this last remains of the Old Monster in Stone. Combined with the Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat, it’s an excellent method for cultivation.”
Ning Zhuo gave a wry smile, indicating that they were still strapped for resources, but he also agreed with Sun Lingtong’s words.
The financial aspects could be resolved through other means, but such shortcuts in cultivation were hard to come by.
Whether it was the Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat or the body of the Old Monster in Stone, both were rare opportunities. Only by combining and utilizing both could such a marvelous effect be achieved.
Ning Zhuo pondered, “I don’t have your understanding of emptiness, elder brother. In actual use, the result will be much inferior to yours.”
“Let’s not worry about that for now, elder brother. Next, please cooperate with me in my actions.”
Sun Lingtong was almost always willing to help Ning Zhuo and immediately nodded, “No problem!”
Ning Zhuo sat down cross-legged and adjusted his state.
A moment later, he slowly opened his eyes, his face full of determination.
“Elder brother, light the fire.”
Sun Lingtong hummed in agreement and activated the Cremation Prajna Spirit Liberation Sutra, igniting a flame.
The firelight reflected on Ning Zhuo’s face, which remained expressionless.
The next moment, he took out a dagger and fiercely stabbed himself.
Blood did not splash out, but instead congealed into strands of blood vessels, forming a web that locked around the wounds.
Ning Zhuo bit down hard and slashed with the dagger, brutally carving open his abdomen!
Agony surged, his eyebrows deeply furrowed and his face colder.
Without needing to look down, Ning Zhuo used his Divine Sense, having already locked onto his spleen.
He used the dagger to cut out his own spleen and grasped it with his left hand, tossing it lightly into the air.
Immediately after, he activated the newly adapted Five Organs Temple Spirit Divine Skill.
Mana was constantly depleted, emitting a blood-colored light that enveloped the spleen.
Under the light’s radiance, the spleen emitted a faint yellow glow. Among the five viscera and six bowels, it corresponded to the Earth Element.
The blood light shone for a moment, and when the timing was right, Ning Zhuo willed the spleen to drop directly into the flames below.
As the flames burned, Ning Zhuo took the opportunity to cast the Spiritual Nature of the Old Monster in Stone into the fire as well.
At the same time, he consistently maintained the blood light shining on the spleen within the flames, without a moment’s interruption!
The spleen gradually melted in the cremation, absorbing the Spiritual Nature of the Old Monster in Stone, eventually forming into a luminous orb.
Inside the orb was a yellowish-brown color, faintly visible was a temple, and the outer layer was surrounded by a blood-colored radiance.
The Five Organs Temple Spirit Divine Skill was precisely about transforming the five organs into five divine temples to create and house gods.
Ning Zhuo adapted this Cultivation Technique, keeping most of it to form a spell, still refining his own organs into divine temples.
But he combined it with something from the outside world. This was the concept he obtained from practicing the Three Superior Sect Techniques.
The Three Superior Sect Techniques excelled at utilizing external objects.
For instance, the Mirror Stand Spirit Communication Technique required arranging various treasured mirrors, in combination with Divine Sense, to exert its mysterious and powerful capabilities.
“I’ve already cultivated the Three Superior Sect Techniques, so I can’t practice the Five Organs Temple Spirit Divine Skill as well.”
“This technique draws on a Cultivator’s Spiritual Nature to create an internal god.”
“If I can’t alter my practice but still want to create a god, then I’ll have to create an external god.”
Ning Zhuo first refined his own spleen, allowing the pure Earth Essence restored after the death of the Old Monster in Stone to act as his external god.
This was undoubtedly extremely compatible with the Earth Element of the Five Elements.
After Ning Zhuo completed the refinement, he gently inhaled, drawing the Spleen Temple back into his abdomen and to its original location.
The wound quickly closed up, and the Spleen Temple was still able to perform its original function, participating and maintaining Ning Zhuo’s vital activities.
A moment later, Ning Zhuo smoothed over his abdomen, allowing the wound to completely disappear.
“Elder brother, I’ve succeeded!” The youth’s face was full of excitement.
