Chapter 2446: Chapter 2466: Just deny it vehemently, who would dare to come and arrest you?

Lin Chen had collected a total of thirty-three strands of Void Lotus Herb; he had used eight to break into Da Luo realm, two for his Shatter Illusion promotion, three for his Image Mysterious promotion, his two wives had used six, and the Dark Ancestral Dragon had used five. With this calculation, he was left with only eight strands in hand now.

Yao Xuanji and Chu Jiaxue each only used three strands to advance to Da Luo, while the Dark Ancestral Dragon used merely five strands even for its Promotion to Daluo Ultimate Immortal. In contrast, Lin Chen himself had used eight strands just for his Da Luo promotion, highlighting the difference in talent between them.

With only the remaining eight strands, if he were lucky, it might be enough to support him gaining two more levels, reaching the Five Realm. However, to break through to the Daluo Ultimate Immortal realm was utterly impossible.

Upon hearing Lin Chen’s account, Master Floating Cloud was slightly disappointed. He had hoped that Lin Chen would be able to reach the Daluo Ultimate Immortal realm in one go since it’s not an easy feat for a peak Daluo Mysterious Immortal to step forward and break through.

After some thought, Master Floating Cloud suggested, "What if you save these eight for now and use them when you reach the peak of Daluo Mysterious Immortal?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "How can I reach later stages without walking the path ahead? I’m well aware of my own talent. My advancements have mostly been due to various fortuitous encounters or natural treasures, and not through my own comprehension. Even disregarding whether or not I could do it on my own, the time it would take is uncertain."

"Drink when there’s wine today, worry about tomorrow’s sorrows then. I’ll just keep moving forward — after all, I’m still very young and have plenty of time. There’s no rush."

Watching Lin Chen’s carefree and confident demeanor, Master Floating Cloud laughed and said, "That’s true. Destiny has arranged everything already. What’s yours will always be yours, and what’s not won’t be yours no matter how much you long for it. Better to let nature take its course."

Master Floating Cloud took out a Spatial Ring and passed it to Lin Chen, "Inside is the Phoenix Fire Crystal Stone I’ve collected previously. I’m giving them all to you, make good use of them in your cultivation."

Lin Chen hesitated slightly, "Master, giving all of them to me, shouldn’t we save some for the sect?"

Master Floating Cloud snorted, "Why give it to the sect? We risked our lives to get these. It’s of no use to me, and you’re my only disciple, so if not you, then who?"

Seeing Master Floating Cloud insisting, Lin Chen no longer hesitated and took the Spatial Ring, "Thank you, Master."

Master Floating Cloud drew out a booklet and handed it over to Lin Chen, "Heaven and Earth separate Yin and Yang, Yin and Yang dividing Five Elements. Most things in the world are inseparable from the Way of the Five Elements. You have learned the Sun Scripture which enables you to absorb the essence of fire to enhance your strength, but if you come across natural treasures of the other Four Elements, you cannot extract and cultivate from them due to the lack of corresponding techniques."

"Having already comprehended the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Tactics, it should not be difficult for you to learn any technique. I am not worried about this. The Divine Spring All-Wood Technique might not be the ultimate technique, but it is definitely top-tier, and it’s the technique your Uncle Liuyun has been cultivating."

Lin Chen took the booklet with a look of joy, "Master, do you mean that I should learn one technique from each of the Five Elements?"

Master Floating Cloud nodded, "Yes. If you were an ordinary person, I wouldn’t suggest this because being greedy can lead to indigestion, and there’s also a risk of conflict between different powers. However, you have mastered the Way of the Five Elements and learned the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Technique, so learning a few more should pose no difficulty for you."

"Since you’ve mastered the Way of the Five Elements, your divine powers will likely involve them too. Only by using the corresponding technique to unleash the divine powers will you truly unlock their full potential. Otherwise, it will just be for show, all style and no substance."

"The Dragon Mountain Sect doesn’t lack techniques for the other attributes, but none of them are top-tier. It’s better to have none than to have something mediocre. I won’t recommend any for now. If you have the opportunity to complete the set of Five Elements techniques in the future, your Way of the Five Elements might have even greater potential."

Lin Chen nodded, "Alright, Master."

Master Floating Cloud reminded him, "Shang Wenyin cultivates the Primordial Xuan Water Technique, an ancient inheritance that is extremely Yin and soft. Although it’s not the ultimate, it’s not far off. Since Shang Wenyin has already defected from the Gui Xu Sect, if you get the chance, you might consider this Primordial Xuan Water Technique..."

Lin Chen hesitated, "Isn’t that inappropriate? Let alone whether Shang Wenyin would give it to me, even if she was willing, if I learn the Primordial Xuan Water Technique, the Gui Xu Sect would go mad. Wouldn’t they try everything in their power to eliminate me?"

Master Floating Cloud chuckled, "You’ve already offended the Gui Xu Sect. Do you really expect them to show you kindness? Since they are already your enemies, what’s the harm in learning it? Just be discreet when using it. Deny everything if confronted. Besides, you’ve also learned their key skill, the Sun Scripture, haven’t you? And it hasn’t stopped you from learning it despite fearing the consequences."

Lin Chen explained, "It’s not that I’m afraid. Before, I was alone and could run away if I really angered someone. Now, as a member of the Dragon Mountain Sect, I wouldn’t want the sect to suffer for my actions."

Master Floating Cloud laughed heartily, "What’s there to fear? Just be careful when using it and don’t get caught red-handed. Deny everything else, and that’s enough. Besides, who dares to come to Dragon Mountain to capture you?"
