Chapter 997: Chapter 1021: Borrowing the Power of Heaven and Earth
The three women all watched this guy leave in frustration. They had worried about him for so long, and yet he brushed it off in just a few words; it was really chilling. "Let’s keep cultivating. Otherwise this guy will say we’re slacking again. If he really can use a Weapon as a Magical Treasure, that’d be pretty good too," Lin Ruoxi said.
The three women each found a spot to absorb Immortal Spirit Qi. In Ice and Snow Fairy’s heart, however, she was very curious about Chu Linfeng’s idea. But she knew she must not go and secretly watch. If he found out, he would definitely be displeased, and might even mock her—a strong expert of the Nine Heavens Profound Immortal Realm—for spying on a Daluo Golden Immortal Realm Immortal’s Martial Skill cultivation.
Chu Linfeng’s figure once again landed on the mountaintop. He took out the Cyan Frost Sword from his Storage Ring, then with a single thought directly used the Heart Sword method to lock onto the Heart Sword, letting it fly at will according to his consciousness. Only then did he slowly begin gathering the Elemental Molecules between Heaven and Earth, preparing to unleash the same Elemental Flying Sword attack as last time.
This Elemental Flying Sword was a name Chu Linfeng had come up with himself. Right now, with his current strength he still couldn’t control all five Elements at once. At present he could only instantly make the Fire Element and Earth Element resonate and quickly converge, because these two Elements were the ones Chu Linfeng had grasped the most thoroughly.
Chu Linfeng chose the Fire Element as the target for this attempt, because the Fire Element possessed powerful Attack Power, while the Earth Element’s Attack Power was very weak and only its Defense Power was strong. He didn’t want to only defend and not attack; passively taking hits was not his style.
In the blink of an eye the Cyan Frost Sword’s body was covered with Fire Element. If he were to unleash a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering slash, he could completely do it, but he still couldn’t make the Cyan Frost Sword unleash an attack as powerful as Earth and Heaven Slash, because that still required Energy as support.
Chu Linfeng tested the power of the Heart Sword fused with massive Fire Element. Fixing his gaze on a mountain peak not far ahead, he moved his mind. The Cyan Frost Sword carried a trail of blazing flames as it cleaved toward that mountain. A fire-red Sword Qi dozens of meters long appeared before him. After a deafening boom came a world-shaking tremor; the mountain before him had vanished, leaving behind a huge bottomless pit.
Within several dozen li, everything was razed to the ground. The air was filled with countless clouds of dust, blotting out the sky and giving off an extremely terrifying feeling. Chu Linfeng’s figure hurriedly flashed away from the mountaintop, flying to a clean spot where he landed.
"I didn’t expect that casually gathered Fire Element Molecules, combined with the Heart Sword, would actually have such great power. This Attack Power is in no way weaker than Earth Slash or even Celestial Slash. But with this level of Attack Power, it’s still impossible to slay powerhouses of the Immortal Realm. I must borrow the Power of Heaven and Earth to unleash an even stronger Attack Power," Chu Linfeng muttered to himself.
His whole being slowly sank into contemplation. In his mind he kept replaying the power produced by that strike just now and the changes that appeared. No one knew how long had passed before he opened his eyes and helplessly shook his head. "It still doesn’t work. Just how do I borrow the Power of Heaven and Earth? This really is a troublesome matter. Though the Power of Heaven and Earth is strong, it is formless. Generally, the Power of Heaven and Earth is the strength formed by the Five Elements, and it doesn’t have much effect when it comes to exerting my Heart Sword.
To truly be able to borrow power that can be on par with the Chaotic Immortal Power in my body, that would count as a success. But where exactly am I supposed to borrow it from? This really is a troublesome thing."
Chu Linfeng slowly pulled his thoughts back, and once again fell into a state of helplessness. During his previous meditation it seemed like he had grasped something, but at this moment it suddenly vanished, making him feel a bit anxious. Sometimes when inspiration appears, one can do many useful things; yet inspiration often flashes by in an instant, and truly seizing it is very difficult.
After slowly calming his mood, Chu Linfeng once again focused all his attention on how to borrow the Power of Heaven and Earth. Inside the Reincarnation Bracelet there was no moon and no Stars; the temperature was the same all year round, like eternal spring. However, there were white clouds, small streams and rivers, and indispensable sunlight.
The so-called sunlight was not a real sun, but a kind of daytime phenomenon naturally formed by this space. Only at dawn and dusk would the sky dim quite a bit, and this was also the best way to distinguish the passing of a day.
At this moment, Chu Linfeng seemed to have caught hold of something again, but he hadn’t sorted it out clearly yet. His heart held a vague excitement. No one knew how much time passed before he suddenly leapt up from the ground, face full of smiles as he laughed, "I know how to borrow the Power of Heaven and Earth now, I know how to borrow the Power of Heaven and Earth!"
Only after a long while did he calm back down. The so-called Power of Heaven and Earth was nothing more than Elemental Power and Star Power. Back when he was at his weakest, he relied on absorbing Star Power to break through his Realm, only at that time because of Sword Spirit in his body he had been unable to break through for a long time.
But the Star Power shed from the Stars was truly existent, and also incomparably powerful. One must know that Stars were enormous beyond imagination; the area covered by the Star Power they shed was equally unimaginable. If one could borrow the Star Power of a single Star, what kind of phenomenon would that be? Would it directly wipe out this Immortal Realm?
Of course, borrowing the power of a single Star was definitely unrealistic, but borrowing a portion of its Energy should be possible. This required achieving resonance with Star Power. This was an extremely terrifying idea, but also the most practical idea. Star Power existed both day and night, though the Star Power at night was the strongest. To achieve resonance, it also had to be done at night.
However, inside this Reincarnation Bracelet there was no Star Power. To verify his idea he had to leave the Reincarnation Bracelet. But Chu Linfeng had no such plan for now. He knew that even if he went out, he might not necessarily be able to resonate with Star Power. This required fully understanding Star Power, and only after he could sense the Star Energy in the heavens would he be able to achieve resonance. This path was very long, but once he reached its end, he would gain astonishing power.
Chu Linfeng had made up his mind. He would first consolidate his current Realm in this Reincarnation Bracelet space. If he could break through to the Nine Heavens Profound Immortal Realm, that would be best. Even if he couldn’t break through, he could still greatly shorten the time needed for his next breakthrough.
When he returned to the place where everyone was cultivating, Chu Linfeng found that Lin Ruoxi and Mei Xiaoxiao were both fully focused on absorbing Immortal Spirit Qi; only Ice and Snow Fairy was not. At this moment, she was actually sitting quietly by a river, seeming to have something on her mind. Though her figure was still hazy, she still gave off a very mysterious sense of beauty.
