Chapter 705: Way to Grow Stronger



One of them was to refine more fate dipper essences of the same elements, and the other was to develop his rank five martial arts.

Both those methods would lead to a massive increase in strength in the short term. However, there was also something else he could do.

According to the Crimson Taoul Tablet, even if Shang Xia didn’t continue to refine fate dipper essences after entering the Martial Dipper Realm, he could borrow the power of the world origin and slowly strengthen his Five Elements Source in his dantian. Eventually, they would grow strong enough and allow him to reach the large completion stage of the Martial Dipper Realm. The only problem with that was that it would take a long time. He would also require a ton of world origin for his daily cultivation.

After entering the Martial Dipper Realm, every cultivation would experience a fundamental transformation. Their lifespan might increase and allow them to live up to 300 years, and they had more than enough time to cultivate and accumulate their foundations.

Of course, cultivating slowly and accumulating strength would only be chosen if there were no other ways to improve. Ordinarily, no one would be patient enough and have the luxury of time to do so.

In the end, there was only one method Shang Xia could use in the short term. When he entered the Martial Dipper Realm, he required 10 fate dipper essences that corresponded to the yin and yang alignment of the 5 elements.

If he hadn’t developed his rank five martial arts, he would only be able to refine the exact same fate dipper essences he already had in order to grow stronger. Things would change dramatically once he managed to develop his own rank five martial arts and secret art. Once he did, the fate dipper essences he could refine would no longer be limited to the 10 he used during his advancement.

If he could only refine the Primal Yang Copper Fate Dipper Essence previously, he would be able to refine any fate dipper essence of the Geng Metal Element in order to raise his cultivation after the development.

That would give him a lot more choices to increase his cultivation.

Otherwise, it would take god knows how long for him to gather the same fate dipper essences to reach the large completion stage of the Martial Dipper Realm. As for the grand completion stage… That would be a whole other matter.

After Shang Xia received 2 strands of Primal Yang Copper Fate Dipper Essence from Kou Chongxue, he was extremely excited. He continued to look through the contents of the case.

Kou Chongxue naturally had his guesses about Shang Xia’s path of cultivation. The fate dipper essences and Origin Dippers he handed over to Shang Xia were aligned with his guess.

It was a pity… Other than the Primal Yang Copper Fate Dipper Essences, Shang Xia didn’t find anything else he could use immediately. Of course, he also had the Vital Jade Marrow Origin Dipper he obtained back then.

In the end, Shang Xia chose 2 Miracle Suspended Dew Fate Dipper Essences which were of the Ren Water Element. He also took a Dark Soil Abyss Fate Dipper Essence of the Ji Earth Element, and a Great Smoke Indistinct Fate Dipper Essence of the Ding Fire Element.

Once he was done with the development of his rank five martial arts and secret art, he would be able to refine the different fate dipper essences to increase his cultivation.

All he had to do at the moment was to keep everything that would be of use in the future.

Dumping all of them into his own sealed spiritual case, he prepared to hand the rest over to Yun Jing along with the extermination qi he gathered in his Spirit Extermination Gourd during his trip to the Celestial Remains.

When he was done, he decided to start refining those fate dipper essences he could. Instead of choosing the Primal Yang Copper Fate Dipper Essences, he decided to use the Vital Jade Marrow Fate Dipper Essence he had more of since he managed to split them off from the Origin Dipper.

Actually, Shang Xia wouldn’t experience an obvious or huge increase to his strength unless he refined fate dipper essences of all the 5 elements. Refining a fate dipper essence or two would barely affect his abilities, but Shang Xia decided to do it anyway. That was because he was trying to use the process to start deducing his rank five martial arts and secret art. He also wished to see if strengthening a single element would affect the balance of his Five Elements Origin in his dantian.

Developing his rank five martial arts and secret art wasn’t something that could be done in a short amount of time. He needed to accumulate his knowledge and experience bit by bit, and he had to continue to improve it as he went along.

Luckily, Shang Xia didn’t have to go in blind during the development process. He already had a goal in mind.

It was something he realized after seeing his advancement formula back then. It was a feeling he had that told him what he had to do. Once he came up with it, it would fit him perfectly.

Pushing his Five Elements Origin in his dantian, he used the most primitive way to refine the strand of Vital Jade Marrow Fate Dipper Essence he brought out. He wanted to try circulating it through his body in a proper loop.

However, rather than saying it was a process of refinement, it seemed more like a process of assimilation. It was extremely slow, and because Shang Xia couldn’t force it to move in a complete cycle through his body perfectly, there would be a risk of the 5 elements entering a state of disequilibrium if he wasn’t careful.

Luckily, that wasn’t a problem for Shang Xia at the moment. In his dantian, the 5 elements were in a very stable state at the moment. A strand of fate dipper essence wouldn’t cause huge waves even if it couldn’t circulate around his body perfectly.

Shang Xia couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief. He discovered the real difference he had with other cultivators of the same level. His foundations were much more solid than the others!

Because of that, Shang Xia could try circulating his qi through his body however he liked. He could make improvements along the way. He would also be able to strengthen his control over it the more he familiarized himself when using it.

Indeed… Everything went as he expected. Refining a single strand of fate dipper essence didn’t do too much when it came to improving his strength.

However, the effects it had when Shang Xia was refining it allowed him to better control his dipper qi and aura. If anyone were to see him, they would think that he would have fully consolidated his foundations in the Martial Dipper Realm.

The 5 colored light and 5 colored shuttle became a lot easier to use than before.

After he completed the refinement process, he emerged from seclusion to take a look at the current situation.

When he learned that everything was going according to plan and the Origin Tide wasn’t close to breaking out yet, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Seeing as there was still time to prepare, he made a batch of offensive and defensive talismans of both the third and fourth ranks to prove support for the cultivators of the You Continent stationed in the battlefield between the two worlds.

The disciples of the Talisman Hall also sent over several rank five talisman papers made with the leaves of the Starry Tree. With the 1 remaining rank five talisman paper Shang Xia received from Kou Chongxue, he had enough to actually start crafting rank five talismans if he wished. He couldn’t help but feel an impulse to craft them.

Now that he entered the Martial Dipper Realm, he could better control dipper qi. At the very least, using his own dipper qi to craft talismans would be much easier than using the dipper qi supplied by other Martial Dipper Realm Ancestors.

Unfortunately, his high-grade White Bone Brush was damaged after his successful creation of the Abyssal Emptiness Talisman back then.

He was hoping that Ren Bainian would be able to fix the brush for him, but with the current situation in the battlefield between the two worlds, Ren Bainian had to provide support. After all, there were only so few Martial Extermination Realm experts in the institution and he couldn’t possibly remain idle. As such, Shang Xia had to delay the repair of his brush.

Luckily, the Talisman Hall had the Purple Bamboo Brush that was of the same grade as the White Bone Brush. It would be barely passable when he tried to craft rank five talismans.

It was a pity Shang Xia had only 2 rank five talisman inheritances. Be it the Abyssal Emptiness Talisman or Substitution Talisman, they were merely auxiliary talismans. They were more likely to be used when running away.

After thinking about it, Shang Xia decided that he would have to go all in if he wished to craft a rank five talisman. After all, every chance to craft one was hard to come by. He shouldn’t waste the opportunity by using rank four talisman ink and increase the risk of failure. He could only tell the Talisman Hall to start preparing rank five talisman ink.

News also came back from the Beyond Heavens Pavilion that the Void Abyss was basically gone at that point. That meant that the world origin of both worlds was nearly done with their fusion and the only thing left was the merger of their Worlds’ Will.

The process would usher in the most chaotic period of time as it welcomed the birth of a new world. It was also the best chance the various powers had to take advantage of whatever was coming. The Tongyou Institution was no exception as they planned to upgrade the Tongyou Mysterious World into the Tongyou Paradise using that chance!

Shang Xia made enough preparations such that he would be able to spare a part of his power to assist Ji Wenlong and Shang Bo if the situation called for it.

After hearing about Shang Xia’s plan and battle preparations, Shang Bo gave him a deep stare that seemed to contain some special meaning before telling him to remain calm and focus on his cultivation for the time being. He even reminded Shang Xia to follow the plan.

Shang Xia smelled the stench of a massive conspiracy that was the usual way the Tongyou Institution carried out their plans. The only thing he didn’t know was who the fuck Kou Chongxue was plotting against this time.

Since Shang Bo had already spoken, Shang Xia was more than happy to take a chill pill. He wanted to delay the development of his rank five martial arts and secret art because of the upcoming chaos, but it seemed as though there was no need to do so any longer. He immediately brought out a strand of Primal Yang Copper Fate Dipper Essence.

Before he could fully refine it, a massive battle broke out in the battlefield between the two worlds around where the Origin Tide was about to erupt. The battle was so intense that it affected the Tongyou City, and it even dragged every existence in the battlefield between the two worlds into it.

It was also at that moment when the world origin that had accumulated in the battlefield between the two worlds decided to burst forth, barging through the spatial tunnel and flooding into the Tongyou City.
