He told the others how to conjure the three flowers out of a genuine sense of philanthropy towards them. His ancestor risked his life to defend this place, after all.
He had given them several ways that they could conjure the three flowers. Despite the others having their own methods to do so, most of them needed to be used together with their own cultivation methods to work.
As such, he then gave them several ways which were more ubiquitous among the worlds, mainly methods which the lone cultivators used.
If the Immemorial Path could find ways suitable for their own use from such foundations, they would then be truly on the right path.
Having gained such a massive boon, those of the Holy Sun Continent wouldn’t just let Lu Xuan do so for free. As a result, they then gave him some kind of immense treasure.
Xuanyangzi said, “Mr. Lu, this is the Immemorial Path’s most prized possession. While it could never compare with the favor you did us by teaching us of the ways of Three Flowers at One’s Prominence, you should still consider this a token of our heartfelt gratitude to you.”
He then added, “This is a sutra left behind by the sacred ancestor. We’re unable to decipher what is recorded in here, but we know that this particular sutra is capable of stabilizing one’s primordial spirit and shuttering out any kind of primordial spirit attack.”
“Capable of shuttering out primordial spirit attacks?” That piqued Lu Xuan’s interest. It was worth noting that there were countless ways of attacking with one’s primordial spirit throughout the various worlds. Such attacks were used to kill countless heroes and magnificent figures throughout history.
That was because such attacks were too difficult to defend against; most defensive power items were too weak to defend against such attacks.
There was no way for anyone to defend themselves against such attacks, after all.
As such, Lu Xuan could continue to strengthen his primordial spirit until it became powerful enough to take on such attacks.
Even so, there was no guarantee that he could defend against all primordial spirit attacks as well. If Lu Xuan were to acquire some kind of treasure capable of defending primordial spirit attacks, there was no doubt that it would boost his powers significantly.
Furthermore, the attacks of many fighters who were versed in primordial spirit attacks wouldn’t even leave scratch him.
Lu Xuan didn’t refuse to take the sutra with him. The sutra was of a reddish-golden color, making it look like it was made out of metal.
What he found peculiar was how the sutra actually felt like a phoenix taking flight. It was as if it could shake free of his hand at any given moment.
It felt as if that sutra had a will of its own.
However, that was to be expected. Everything in the world had spirits residing in them; they could become sapient and even develop some level of intelligence.
Lu Xuan had seen so many of such items back during his past life that he was already used to it.
Lu Xuan added, “Thank you very much then.”
After handing the sutra over to Lu Xuan, Xuanyangzi left in a hurry. It was obvious that after getting Lu Xuan’s guidance, he rushed to see if he could conjure the three flowers. That was how he became a fighter at the same level as the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence.
Lu Xuan no longer paid any attention to him and began training in isolation. Based on what Xuanyangzi had told him, he already knew that another top-notch fighter had appeared within the ranks of the Divine Blood Church.
Even so, they had no idea at all who that top-notch fighter actually was.
He didn’t understand how someone capable of conjuring such spells would appear in a low middle-class world like the Holy Sun Continent. What he could easily figure out was that the fighter in question was definitely someone capable of conjuring the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence.
Then again, it wasn’t like such cases never happened before. Many similar beings had appeared throughout the many worlds out there; such people kept an eye on their world from behind the scenes.
They were even bold enough to call themselves gods. In reality, however, they were but mere frogs trapped inside a well.
Right now, it was imperative for Lu Xuan to truly learn what level this mysterious fighter was at.
That was because even those who were capable of conjuring Three Flowers at One’s Prominence were of varying levels. Every flower conjured, be it the Essence Flower, the Auric Flower, or the Spirit Flower, would’ve greatly amplified their combat prowess.
Of course, given the means available to Lu Xuan and the level of his powers, he had little to fear even when faced with one such opponent.
That was because he had nearly inexhaustible amounts of mid-tier spirit stones to support him. Even if he encountered a fighter capable of using the three flowers, he could simply use his pseudo-ascended state to fight.
However, he still didn’t want to rely too much on the White Sun Soaring Sutra. He would only be truly powerful if he made himself that way.
That was why he didn’t agree to it right away when several elders of the sect requested for him to act personally.
That was why he needed to first train in isolation and make a breakthrough into the ninth tier of the Divine Transformation Realm. By then, his combat prowess would’ve seen yet another massive leap. Even if he encountered a fighter who was capable of conjuring the three flowers, he could rely entirely on his own powers to fight them.
He was not too far from reaching that level. By the time he was finished with his current level, nobody in the world could defeat him.
Lu Xuan’s caution made quite a number of elders grumble. He was still acting overly cautious even when he had such formidable powers at his disposal.
After entering the Tianhai Secret Realm, he sat in the air with his legs crossed while the sutra hovered in front of him.
He melded his primordial spirit into that sutra.
The sutra was protected by many powerful barriers, which prevented Xuanyangzi from seeing into the true contents of the sutra.
Several treasures throughout the world were protected by such barriers. Without special techniques to bypass these boundaries, people usually couldn’t get a good look into them. If they were to just force their way inside, they would have only gotten a broken piece.
Fortunately, he was very experienced with dealing with such situations.
He had various methods to break this barrier at his disposal.
After working for an hour to cautiously unravel the barrier around the sutra, he had finally succeeded.
The sutra’s true form finally appeared before Lu Xuan.
A row of golden words appeared before his eyes: “The Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art.”
“I can’t believe that this is the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art. I never expected such a divine art to truly exist; I thought that it was only a myth.”
He recognized the contents of the sutra right away.
“This sutra holds the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art. It’s no wonder that the sutra could actually stabilize one’s primordial spirit.”
He recognized the sutra of the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art. They were so many divine arts throughout the worlds; nobody knew how many of them were out there.
Those that were capable of being ranked among the top 1000 were all very powerful spells, while those ranked within the top 100 were capable of granting someone renown throughout the worlds.
Among the top hundred spells, 10 of them were known as the top 10 divine arts. They had been little more than myths throughout the ages.
It was said that if a cultivator could get their hands on even just one of them and train it to perfection, they would’ve possessed unimaginable power from it.
One such art was the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art, which had been ranked among the top 10 divine arts.
