Chapter 180: Great Five Elements Divine Light
Xiao Bai stood within the pillar of light and slowly opened his eyes, their glow gleaming with surprise and a hint of disappointment.
He surveyed the raging wind and dark clouds, lost in thought.
After sensing the ripples of this strange phenomenon spreading rapidly into the distance, he frowned and waved his wide sleeves.
A majestic, multicolored streak burst forth from his sleeves, accompanied by a faint thunderclap and a flash of lightning, shattering the turbulent, thick clouds.
Then, with a thought, the towering pillar of light, radiating intense light, shimmered slightly before slowly dissipating.
Only then did the Canaan Academy's congregation clearly discern the blurry figure within the pillar of light.
He wore a long, dark robe, his figure slender and his long, glossy black hair flowing naturally down his back and chest. His features were handsome, yet he exuded a sense of unparalleled harmony and naturalness.
What captivated everyone most were his eyes. Even from a distance, everyone could see five tiny points of light, each of varying colors, glimmering within those deep black pupils.
With a gentle movement, they seemed to transform into mountains and rivers, rocks and trees, and even blazing seas of fire.
But upon closer inspection, all that was revealed was a starry black sky, as if everything they had just seen was an illusion. It was quite mysterious!
"So it's him, the great devil! No wonder he's making such a fuss!" someone whispered. Although Xiao Bai's appearance and demeanor had changed drastically, a familiar presence could still be seen between his handsome brows.
"Look! It's the boss! Our boss!" a freshman cheered joyfully.
"He's gotten stronger again! Very strong!" Several figures stood atop a massive tree. A man, a massive rifle slung over his shoulder, gazed at the figure in the distant sky with a solemn expression.
"Is this the Xiao Bai you were talking about? The one who loves women?" A silver-haired woman looked incredulously at her best friend beside her.
"Not bad! Handsome, isn't she!" Mulan, the woman in a goose-yellow dress, stared intently at the black-haired, black-robed young man in the air, muttering without turning back, "Yue'er! How about we disband 'Yue Ling' and join Zixiao?"
"Get lost!" The silver-haired woman, Han Yue, retched, giving up hope in this hopeless friend. She simply said, "Let's break up!"
"Okay!" Mulan waved her hand nonchalantly. Just as Han Yue was stunned by her words, the woman continued, "We'll break up today, and we'll renew our friendship tomorrow! It's no big deal!"
".!" Han Yue.
Tianfen Refining Qi Tower.
"Such a person! I was too suspicious!" Great Elder Su Qian stared into space, a faint smile playing on his lips, as if a worry had been put aside.
He had heard the dean talk about the strange phenomena in the world before, and what he saw just now had left him stunned for a long time. He had never expected Canaan Academy to accept such a student.
A person capable of creating heavenly-level martial arts and fighting techniques, such a person must be a truly astonishing talent. Especially compared to those Dou Sheng-level masters, Xiao Bai's young age meant even greater potential!
As far as he knew, an alchemist could only subdue one type of strange fire.
Therefore, even if someone like Xiao Bai needed a strange fire, he wouldn't seek out a lower-ranked strange fire like the Fallen Heart Flame and waste this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The Fallen Heart Flame seemed powerful, but that was only for those below the Dou Zong level. Above the Dou Zong level, its tempering effect was insignificant.
He and Elder Qian Bai were both deeply aware of this.
As Su Qian was stunned, the invisible fire python sensed the luring aura slowly fading, and panic seized him.
"Chi!"
With an angry roar, the vast blood-red magma erupted in a turmoil, and torrents of searing energy surged from the ground.
The blazing red light surged, carrying the might of a tidal wave, fiercely slamming into the vibrant energy shield.
"Puff!"
The faces of the Outer Court elders, sitting cross-legged above the energy shield, maintaining it, suddenly flushed crimson. Some of those with lower cultivation couldn't help but spit out large mouthfuls of blood, which was then evaporated by the scorching heat.
"Beast! How dare you!"
Su Qian, seeing this, his heart pounding with anxiety, his face darkening.
With a flash of light, he appeared above the fire python's head. His palm shone brightly, causing the air to shatter. He slammed down with a fierce palm.
Man and python engaged in a fierce battle in an instant.
Over the valley, the dense dark clouds slowly dissipated, and warm sunlight once again pierced through the clouds, scattering tiny golden rays, illuminating the dense forests below.
Xiao Bai felt the pillar of light beneath his feet slowly dissipate, barely able to support him.
Just as he was about to unleash his energy wings, a voice filled with joy came rapidly from afar.
"My Lord! You've finally emerged! If you don't, we won't be able to escape!"
A shimmer of golden light appeared, and a massive creature hovered over him. Xiao Bai lightly leaped onto the little golden dragon's head, motioning it to descend before speaking.
"Tell me clearly, what's the meaning of escaping?"
"You don't know, Canaan Academy was invaded by a powerful individual sometime ago, suspected to be Dou Zun-level. Let's quickly take the young master and the Immortal Mistress and flee!" the little golden dragon said anxiously.
"...!" Xiao Bai.
He had sensed the inner courtyard was calm and peaceful just now; there was no sign of an enemy invasion.
It was just that the fire attribute erupting from the Skyburn Refining Qi Tower was quite intense, presumably due to the rioting of the Fallen Heart Flame.
"Brother Xiao Bai!"
"Xiao Bai!"
As they landed on the ground, two cries filled with longing and surprise rang out, and then two beautiful figures came to his side.
Xiao Bai's eyes swept over the two pretty faces gently, and he stretched out his hands, one hand on a small waist, and hugged Xun'er and Xiao Yixian into his arms.
After being apart for several months, he also missed these two girls!
"Bad guy!"
"Xiao Bai."
The two girls blushed, and as they looked at each other in his arms, a hint of shame flashed in their eyes. This guy was getting more and more presumptuous. In broad daylight, he started hugging left and right.
Feeling the two girls' struggle of wanting to accept but not wanting to, Xiao Bai raised the corners of his mouth slightly and whispered: "Xun'er, Xian'er, did you miss me?"
"Of course I miss you!"
"That's right, Xun'er and I are doing fine! Without someone, we both feel so relaxed and comfortable!"
".!" Xiao Bai looked at the two stubborn girls and really wanted to spank them hard with one hand each. However, he kept smiling and said softly: "But I miss you!"
The two women fell silent instantly. Xun'er leaned into his embrace and hummed, "You have a conscience!"
The Little Doctor Fairy's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, a gentle glint in them. She smiled, saying nothing, but leaning her head against his chest.
"Brother Xiao Bai, your hair has returned!" Xun'er looked at the dark strands of hair drooping before her eyes, her eyes brimming with joy. This was what she had been worrying about, and now she could finally put her mind at ease.
"Yes! You've made great progress in your training this time, and your hair color has returned to normal!" Xiao Bai said softly, stroking her long black hair.
"That's great! I was going to prepare something for you..." At this point, Xun'er quickly reached out her bare hands to cover her red lips, stopping herself.
In her excitement, she had almost accidentally let her once-genius idea slip.
"What did you prepare?" Xiao Bai looked down at the lotus-like girl, his eyes alight with a smile. This girl might be worried about his lifespan and had prepared some healing treasure for him.
Thinking of this, Xiao Bai couldn't help but feel touched. This girl truly gave her all to him.
"Nothing. Nothing!" Xun'er's beautiful eyes drifted away, and she smiled sheepishly, quickly shaking her head in denial.
"Hmm?" Seeing Xun'er display this rare expression, Xiao Bai had initially been indifferent, but now he was genuinely curious. He gently rubbed his palm against her slender waist, "Will you tell me?"
"Haha. No, Brother Xiaobai, it tickles!" Xun'er twisted her waist uncomfortably, giggling softly.
"Then Xun'er will tell Brother Xiaobai, okay?" Xiao Bai continued, chuckling.
"Okay! I'll tell you, but don't shock me!" Xun'er glanced at him in annoyance.
She couldn't stand the constant tingling sensation in her waist, and secretly resented this nasty guy for actually using his thunder-attributed Dou Qi to shock her! As she spoke, she stood on tiptoe, resting her delicate head on Xiao Bai's shoulder. She brought her little mouth close to Xiao Bai's ear, whispering something in a sweet, orchid-like whisper.
Xiao Bai cradled two slender, graceful bodies, inhaling the delicate fragrance within his arms and the gentle warmth that lingered in his ears, causing him to become a little distracted.
"What? The Life-Devouring Pill!"
Xiao Bai's hands trembled, his pupils shrinking. His fleeting thoughts vanished in a moment of shock, and he exclaimed in disbelief.
"So, Brother Xiao Bai, isn't Xun'er a genius?"
Xun'er, seeing his astonishment, couldn't help but chuckle, her expression as if to praise him.
Xiao Bai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This girl had actually been planning to give him the Life-Devouring Pill while he was still a fighting master.
Good thing! If he had actually consumed that damn thing, he'd have been struck to death by two successive lightning seeds.
A sense of relief welled up in his heart. Fortunately, his cultivation level had advanced quickly, preventing this girl from succeeding. Otherwise, the grass on his grave would have been three feet high by now!
"Okay, Xun'er! When you have another 'genius' idea in the future, you should tell Brother Xiao Bai first so that we can be prepared. Otherwise, Brother Xiao Bai might not be able to bear it, okay?" Xiao Bai said in a trembling voice, a little timid.
He did not blame Xun'er. This girl was completely devoted to him. Although there was a suspicion of doing something good with bad intentions, ignorance is not a crime after all!
Who told this girl to be the apple of his eye? Normally, he would not bear to say a harsh word to her.
"Yes! Of course! Even if it is to take the Life-Devouring Pill, I will definitely tell Brother Xiao Bai in advance!" Xun'er nodded and smiled.
She was not stupid. Brother Xiao Bai was very mysterious. Who knew if some pills would have an effect on him after taking them.
It was just a joke to trick him into taking them!
"That's good, that's good!" Xiao Bai secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.
Thinking of him, Xiao Bai, he was still ambitious and planning how to become an emperor!
Unexpectedly, Xun'er's single elixir nearly crippled him, nearly causing Baidi's quest to collapse midway!
"Huh? Xian'er, why are you a little unhappy?"
Xiao Bai was just rejoicing when he suddenly noticed the other beautiful figure in his arms hadn't moved. Turning his head, he saw a hint of disappointment on Xiao Yixian's face.
"Xiaobai! Don't you like white hair?" Xiao Yixian asked softly, her eyes darkening as she saw the snow-white hair cascading over her shoulders.
She had always had the same hair color as Xiaobai, and she had been somewhat pleased about it, believing it held a beautiful meaning.
They would grow old together!
But now, Xiaobai seemed content with black hair.
"Who said that? I like white hair best—bah... white hair!" Xiao Bai said firmly, straightening his back.
"Hmph," a disapproving snort echoed in a cold, crisp voice. "So, Brother Xiaobai doesn't like black hair!"
"How can I like both? Both!" Xiao Bai's straightened back suddenly sagged, and he hurriedly laughed.
"Hehehe" Seeing his funny expression, deliberately teasing them, the two girls couldn't help but laugh.
Xiao Bai was speechless!
MMP, being hugged by women is very nice, but it's a bit useless!
"By the way, Brother Xiao Bai, what was that beam of light just now, a martial art or a fighting skill?"
Xun'er was a little excited when she thought of what happened just now, her face flushed a little, and she asked expectantly.
This is a heavenly martial art or a fighting skill, even in her clan, it is a rare existence, not something common!
"Hmm" Xiao Bai's face was a little subtle when he heard this, not knowing how to say it.
"Is it inconvenient to say? Then Xun'er won't ask!" Xun'er thought there was something inconvenient to disclose, and said hurriedly.
"Yes! Xiaobai, if it's not convenient to say, don't be embarrassed, we understand you!" Xiao Yixian then spoke up.
"It's not that it's inconvenient to say, I just haven't thought about how to say it!" Xiao Bai sighed lightly.
"It's called: Great Five Elements Divine Light!"
Xiao Bai's eyes mingled with joy and a hint of disappointment as he spoke. Does this thing look familiar?
It certainly does. It shares the same name as the innate magical power of Kong Xuan, the foremost being below the Primordial Sage, yet its power is vastly different.
Others' Great Five Elements Divine Lights absorb and destroy everything.
When Xiao Bai first learned the name, he was overjoyed. But then he realized his own was a meager version, countless notches down.
"The Great Five Elements Divine Light isn't really an offensive fighting skill. It's designed to absorb someone's Dou Qi, essentially boosting their own. Any Dou Qi within the Five Elements' range will benefit their cultivation!"
"Of course, this boost isn't permanent, only temporary!"
"There's actually such a fighting skill!" Xun'er and Little Medical Fairy gaped in astonishment.
"Weaken the enemy and strengthen yourself!" Xun'er's beautiful eyes were filled with deep surprise: "And the derivation of the Five Elements includes any Dou Qi attribute on the continent today! Then Brother Xiao Bai can fight with people across many realms!"
"In theory, anyone who can be brushed can have a fight!" Xiao Bai nodded first, then shook his head: "But everything has its limits. The gap in cultivation is too big, and it is impossible to brush it!"
"And you can't rely on your limits to fight with others, because the higher the opponent's cultivation, the less Dou Qi you can brush, and the less impact you will have on the opponent. If you still insist on doing that, it's no different from seeking death!"
"That's very strong, okay?" Xun'er looked at Xiao Bai, who seemed still dissatisfied, with a bad look: "This is already more powerful than some blood secrets!"
She didn't tell Xiao Bai that even the Dou Emperor bloodline has its limits to forcibly improve strength in a short period of time. Xiao Bai's fighting skills are already comparable to the blood secrets of the eight ancient clans.
"Brother Xiao Bai, with your current level of cultivation, what level of opponent can you fight with this fighting skill?" Xun'er suddenly wanted to compare the level of this perverted fighting skill with the secret method of the imperial bloodline.
"I don't know, I haven't tried it!" Xiao Bai shook his head. Strictly speaking, this is called a fighting skill, but it is more like a magical power.
Because the use of fighting skills still requires cultivation and proficiency.
But when the five-colored light merged into his body, this great five-element divine light was like his hands and feet, and he could use it with a thought.
"Thinking about it, it seems a bit perverted!" Xiao Bai touched his chin. The strength of this great five-element divine light is related to the five-element energy in his dantian.
The stronger the five-element energy, the greater the power. But at the moment, although he can use it, he can't exert much power at all.
"Find an opportunity to try it! Even if I can't reach the level of the heavenly rank for the time being, I don't think I will be disappointed!"
