Chapter 556 Comprehending the Dao Body, Deducing Cultivation Methods

Chen Fusu set down the ancient scroll, his expression turning grave.

He pondered for a moment before finally saying, "Since it is the decree of the Ancestor, Fusu naturally complies."

Seeing him agree, Eldrin nodded with a smile. "The Ancient Sea Tome isn't the most compatible with your Tri-Primordial Dao Body. From now on, you shall cultivate by my side. I will use this ancient text as foundation to gradually refine your cultivation method."

"Many thanks, Ancestral Elder."

Chen Fusu prostrated himself on the ground, his face lighting up with ecstatic delight.

To receive personal guidance from a True Monarch—what a heaven-sent opportunity this was.

Seeing him nod, Eldrin casually bestowed a few treasures and said, "You may take your leave now. I shall summon you again in a few days."

"As you command."

As Chen Fusu departed, Lyra (Person Name) glanced sideways and remarked, "It's rare to see you so devoted, patiently nurturing the younger generation."

Eldrin (Person Name) smiled faintly and said, "Such fine jade still requires meticulous carving to reveal its true brilliance. Allowing it to grow untended would be a waste of extraordinary innate talent."

"It is the same."

Lyra nodded slightly, a trace of melancholy flashing in her beautiful eyes. "The path of cultivation is long and arduous. Not all who possess heaven-defying talent can walk far upon it."

Throughout the ancient realm, there were actually quite a few prodigies with Dao Bodies. However, many of them would perish before reaching the Nascent Soul stage. Even among those who achieved something, most only attained the Mortal-grade Nascent Soul. Those who managed to achieve the Earth-grade Nascent Soul could already be considered to have encountered extraordinary fortune.

It was even rarer for someone like Daoist Xiangzi Xu to obtain the Heavenly Dao Qi (Spiritual Root), a case that defied conventional reasoning.

Suppressing his thoughts, Eldrin said no more and returned to his seclusion chamber to begin consolidating the insights gained from this Dao Discourse.

In the blink of an eye, 3 months had passed. Eldrin began personally guiding Chen Fusu and Lu Wenyan in their cultivation.

That day, Eldrin summoned the 2 individuals. Gazing at Lu Wenyuan and Chen Fusu, he said, "Both of you possess unique constitutions. To fully unleash the power of your Dao Bodies, it would be best to cultivate techniques that are most compatible with them."

"Allow me to examine your Dao Bodies, so I may devise cultivation methods tailored specifically for you."

"Wenyuan, step forward."

"As you command."

Lu Wenyuan nodded and stepped forward.

Eldrin reached out and grasped Lu Wenyuan's wrist, sending a wisp of divine sense into his physical body to begin probing the profound mysteries of this 4 Symbols Dao Body (Spiritual Root).

"This is..."

After a brief observation, a slight frown creased Eldrin's brow, his expression growing solemn.

After carefully observing Lu Wenyuan's Dao Body, he discovered that it was innately engraved with Dao patterns. Each strand of these patterns was profoundly intricate, so much so that even Eldrin found them somewhat inscrutable and difficult to comprehend.

These Dao patterns were profound and intricate. By comprehending them thoroughly, 1 could gain insight into the 4 emblematic secret forces, and even advance further to glimpse the power of the 4 Extremities Laws.

Eldrin (Person Name) murmured inwardly, feeling a sudden divine inspiration as he gained a profound new comprehension of the 4 elemental forces: fire, metal, wood, and water.

Although this still fell considerably short of mastering all 4 arcane forces, it had already granted Eldrin substantial gains and profound enlightenment.

"I originally intended to nurture talented juniors out of appreciation for their potential, yet observing the profundity of the Dao Body unexpectedly aided my own cultivation."

"If I can thoroughly observe the 4 Symbols Dao Body (Spiritual Root) and extract its essence to enrich my own foundation, it would greatly benefit my efforts to deduce new cultivation techniques."

"Truly, every sip and peck is bound by fate."

Eldrin murmured inwardly, steadying his mind as he began to contemplate the Dao Body.

Lu Wenyuan's cultivation was merely at the Foundation Establishment realm, and the profundity of his Dao Body had not yet fully manifested. With Eldrin's (Person Name) comprehension, it took only a moment for him to memorize roughly 70 to 80 percent of these Dao patterns.

After a long while, Eldrin withdrew his hand and said, "Return to your cultivation for now. Once I have perfected this cultivation method, I shall impart it to you."

"I understand, Master."

After Lu Wenyuan departed, Eldrin continued to examine Chen Fusu's Dao Body.

Just as Eldrin had predicted, Chen Fusu’s physique had also given him no small amount of insight.

After the 2 had departed, he began to ceaselessly deduce and refine, crafting the most suitable cultivation techniques for them.

With Eldrin's (Person Name) current profound foundation and cultivation level, creating low-tier techniques was as effortless as looking down from a high vantage point. Even devising a method for the Golden Core Realm would present little difficulty.

Thus, in merely 7 days, he created the most suitable cultivation method for Lu Wenyuan's Dao Body—the 4 Symbols True Art.

This cultivation method converges the power of the 4 Symbols, enabling 1 to cultivate to the peak of Foundation Establishment, and even encompasses 4 divine abilities.

Still unsatisfied, Eldrin (Person Name) spent another month and advanced the 4 Symbols True Art to the Great Perfection stage of the Purple Mansion.

And there it stopped. It was not that he could not continue the deduction, but Lu Wenyuan's cultivation was still too low, and the subsequent Dao patterns of the 4 Symbols True Art were still evolving. To deduce the Golden Core chapter now might not suit his cultivation path.

Moreover, it would take Lu Wenyuan over a 100 years to cultivate to the Great Perfection of the Violet Mansion. He could return later to observe and deduce further.

After perfecting the 4 Symbols True Art, Eldrin once again set out to create Chen Fusu's cultivation technique.

The Tri-Primordial Dao Body was also profoundly mysterious. It took him over a month of arduous effort to deduce this cultivation method to the Great Perfection stage of the Purple Mansion.

After creating 2 cultivation techniques, Eldrin summoned 2 individuals and handed them the 2 scrolls.

He looked at Lu Wenyuan and said, "The cultivation art I created for you is named the 4 Symbols True Art. This method can lead 1 to the Great Perfection of the Purple Mansion realm, and it enables the simultaneous cultivation of 4 types of magic power: metal, wood, water, and fire. It also has a profound effect on tempering the physical body."

This method comes with 4 divine abilities: Vermilion Bird Body Refining, White Tiger Physique Tempering, Black Tortoise Harmony Balancing, and Azure Dragon Vitality Nourishing. When these 4 divine abilities are combined, they form the 4 Extremes Body Refinement Art, capable of forging the ultimate physical form.

"This method aligns most perfectly with your Dao Body, making it the most suitable cultivation art for you. Once mastered, the potential of your 4 Symbols Dao Body (Spiritual Root) will be continuously unlocked."

As his words fell, his gaze shifted to Chen Fusu and he said, "As for Fusu, this cultivation method of yours is called the 3 Primordias Dao Sutra."

This cultivation method can converge the 3 primordial energies of essence, qi, and spirit, allowing simultaneous refinement of the physical body, soul, and magical power. It integrates these 3 aspects into a seamless cycle, perpetually enhancing the triad's combined strength.

"If you cultivate it to a profound realm, then your physical body, magic power, and soul will have no weaknesses."

Lu Wenyuan took the cultivation manual, unable to suppress a look of ecstasy.

According to the scripture, the 4 Symbols Divine Art could also manifest the 4 Extremes True Body, greatly enhancing Lu Wenyuan's (Person Name) physical strength.

Most importantly, its conceptual foundation is truly extraordinary. Theoretically, if 1 could continuously deduce its profundities in the future, the 4 Symbols True Art would become a grand path to achieving sainthood through physical cultivation.

Chen Fusu's cultivation method was founded on an extraordinary vision. According to Eldrin's conception, when the Tri-Primordial Daoist Scripture was cultivated to its ultimate state, it should converge 1's foundational essence, coalescing the 3 primordial energies—essence, qi, and spirit—into a unified whole. This would give form to the flawless Dao Fruit, enabling 1 to ascend as an immortal of the undying Dao Fruit.
