cks a bit of power in comparison.Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!No matter what, Lu Xia Tian still planned to test if the Ice Soul Profound Sound could effectively defend agai..."I was worried that Master Lu might be at a disadvantage under the Black Abyss Demon's hands, so I gathered several cultivators from the valley to help. Unexpectedly, Master Lu's strength is astonishing, and I have overstepped my bounds." The woman with wooden hairpin smiled apologetically.
"Are there a lot of Black Abyss Beasts here"
Lu Xiaitian asked, although he deliberately remembered some monsters before, but the cultivation world is so vast. The recorded monsters only mean that other cultivators have seen them. The unseen monsters are naturally not listed. Moreover, over time, every monster in each place may change with environmental changes. Over hundreds or even thousands of years, they might become another species altogether.

“Although rare, there are occasional appearances. This kind of Black Abyss Elephant is the most headache-inducing. Our Maple Leaf Valley guards this place, preventing monsters from the mountains from occasionally running rampant in the human world. We’ve fought many monsters, but encountering a Black Abyss Elephant usually leaves us helpless. We can only notify those mortals to evacuate early and avoid casualties. I didn't expect Daoist Lu to fight this Black Abyss Elephant and not be at a disadvantage. This one just now, regardless of its size or strength, is the most powerful I’ve ever seen.”
The wooden nun looked at Lu Xia Tian's eyes with a hint of respect.
"Let's go back and talk later. I still have some doubts about the formation." Lu Xia Tian nodded, and had already flown forward.
The wood-chipping woman closely followed, naturally overjoyed by this. She had originally planned to continue her seclusion, as the method Lu Xia Tian provided for expelling the golden core's aura with lightning was quite effective. Over this year or so, her worsening injuries had temporarily been controlled, thus she had grown more confident in Lu Xia Tian. Furthermore, the few spiritual items used for body refining and enhancing constitution were already exhausted, forcing her to end her seclusion early. When she emerged, she learned that Lu Xia Tian had gone to the Moon Gazing Mountain Range, so she went looking for him. Unexpectedly, she stumbled upon the scene of Lu Xia Tian's battle with the Black Abyss Elephant.
The two returned to Maple Leaf Valley, one after the other. Lu Xia Tian replenished some spiritual objects for the woman with the wooden staff and asked her some questions about the Five Elements Formation Method. Then he returned to his courtyard. Recalling what the woman with the wooden staff had said, he realized that to master a formation method, besides understanding its theoretical deductions, one also needed practical experience. He decided to try refining some formation disks and setting up corresponding formations. Through this process, he would feel the power of the formations formed by various spiritual energies in the Five Elements Formation Method, how they operate, and their connection with each other. Although the level of the Five Elements Formation Method was not high, there were very few people who could bring it to perfection.
The ranking of formations is different from that of cultivators. During the Qi Refining Stage, it's similar to the levels of demonic beasts, ranging from first to third rank. However, as you move further along, the classification of formation ranks becomes more ambiguous. A fourth-rank formation already surpasses the entire range from the first to ninth level of the Foundation Establishment stage for human cultivators.

And the Seven Star Formation he possessed belonged to the top-level killing formation among the four ranks, its notorious reputation spread far and wide. There were also many levels of division within the Five Elements Formation method, and many Formation Masters had deduced numerous formidable formations through the Five Elements Formation method, such as the Five Elements Sword Formation, the Great Five Elements Vajra Formation, and the Yin-Yang Five Elements Soul-Crushing Formation, etc.
Thus, Lu Xia Tian had one more thing to do every day. He laid out five low-grade spirit stones of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, then simultaneously activated the spiritual energy within them. Then, using his divine sense, he controlled the five types of spiritual energy to intertwine, forming a simple spiritual energy field. However, the five elements generate and restrain each other. To control these five different types of spiritual energy so that they don't clash, and operate harmoniously was not easy. Often, due to poor control of the fire, water and fire systems, or fire and wood systems, would produce violent conflicts. Once a certain type of spiritual energy is consumed too much, this simple five-element formation would collapse.
This method of attempting to operate the Five Elements Formation using spirit stones is quite simple in principle. However, it is extremely difficult to manipulate these five different attributes of spiritual energy to the point of perfect harmony like fire refined into pure jade. Lu Xia Tian didn't have time to research the various powerful attack formations derived from the Five Elements Formation. He simply tried to control the formation of this spiritual field using the spiritual energy of the Five Elements, allowing it to run smoothly in the same environment, forming a unified force without conflict.
But this kind of behavior, which directly uses divine consciousness to control spiritual power without relying on external objects, wants the conflicting spiritual powers to coexist peacefully, but it is not easy. If you are not careful, if one spiritual power is suppressed too severely, it will declare failure.

And when placing them, the spiritual power of the five spirit stones must also be kept the same. If it fails once, the five spirit stones will be almost scrapped. Fortunately, the remaining spiritual power of these spirit stones can still be used inside the barrier to accelerate the maturation of spiritual creatures. Otherwise, even for a cultivator at the late stage of foundation building, it would definitely be a considerable burden.
Lu Xia Tian tried the most frequently used Five Element Formation technique, which was this way. It was simple and direct. He had his own considerations. Even if he condensed the Array Pill in the future, the main thing was to control the huge spiritual power of five different attribute Golden Cores. It was similar to placing five spirit stones. However, seeing that even controlling the spiritual power of five low-grade spirit stones to achieve balance and coexistence was so difficult, Lu Xia Tian couldn't help but smile bitterly.

>Fortunately, he had a lot of spirit stones in reserve, otherwise, with this kind of consumption, he really wouldn't be able to bear it.
Through attempting the Five Elements Formation with spirit stones, Li Xia Tian's life was not solely defined.
After all, condensing the formation pill was only his second plan. Apart from necessary cultivation every day, most of the time he still used other divine souls to deduce formations.
Every morning, when the sun first rose, after his daily essential meditation practice, Lu Xia Tian's qi and spirit would reach their peak. He would then return to the courtyard to refine Jin Dan pills. Lu Xia Tian refined wood-attributed Jin Dan pills. His cultivation of the Hun Yuan Jing had reached the Golden Core stage, so he didn't have strict requirements for any particular type of Jin Dan pill. Lu Xia Tian felt that wood-attributed Jin Dan pills contained a vibrant life force. After several attempts at refining other types failed, he ultimately decided to only refine wood-attributed Jin Dan pills.
Looking at the familiar alchemy furnace, Lu Xia Tian smiled wryly. His talent for alchemy wasn't as high as he originally imagined. Counting back and forth, he had tried to refine the Jin Dan pill over two hundred times, not a single success. Senior alchemists were like mountains standing before him, unreachable. It was estimated that in the entire cultivation world, there was no one who had wasted as much as him. Two hundred batches of Jin Dan materials would even hurt the vitality of a large sect like Qing Dan Palace. If Lu Xia Tian hadn't killed quite a few Foundation Establishment cultivators and cultivated them at a lower cost inside the barrier, he would have gone bankrupt long ago.
But no matter what, even if it's difficult, one must refine the Golden Elixir Pill. Lu Xia Tian quickly cast aside his distracting thoughts, replacing them with a resolute look in his eyes.
