Primordial Era: Exceptional Comprehension, Destroying Buzhou Mountain at the Start

Chapter 298 The Origin of Five Finger Mountain, the Source of the Five Elements, Seeing Sun Wukong, Numb Eyes

Han Xin smiled bitterly, unsure what to say. He could only sigh softly, unable to stop it. After all, this was the path Di Xiao had chosen.

"Alright, stop sighing. Observe carefully, and you'll discover how formidable this kid Di Xiao is. It's not that he doesn't cultivate the Way of the Army, but rather that he transforms the Way of the Army into the Way of Battle. While he cultivates the Way of Battle to strengthen himself, he also maintains the strength of the Way of the Army, and the Way of the Army even makes his Way of Battle stronger." Zhang Liang saw Di Xiao use himself to create a training ground, use his magic power to create soldiers, and when he used the soldiers to gather fighting spirit, he suddenly discovered the mystery of this method.

Han Xin's gaze followed, observing Di Xiao's every move.

As Di Xiao continued to cultivate, his battle intent tempered his body, bringing his physical form to perfection. Di Xiao then began cultivating the Celestial Immortal Scroll.

By gathering fighting spirit and integrating it into one's divine soul, one can temper and refine one's divine soul, and at the same time, condense a battle altar, or perhaps a platform for worshipping generals, or a divine throne of the battle path...

In short, at the moment the divine soul condensed, Di Xiao's essence, energy, and spirit also condensed, causing the acupoints throughout his body to evolve into individual warriors.

Using the physical body as a training ground, using magic to evolve soldiers, and using the divine soul to command soldiers, the three are integrated, ultimately giving birth to countless soldiers.

Those soldiers who were previously unconscious will be imbued with consciousness by Emperor Xiao through the Dao of War. They will roar and shout within Emperor Xiao's body, and they will also train and fight within him.

Di Xiao sensed the changes within himself: "I divided my divine soul into divine thoughts, and each wisp of divine thought transformed into one thousand and eight ideas, endowing one thousand and eight soldiers with consciousness and wisdom. Through this evolution, the soldiers that have been transformed within my body are equivalent to my incarnations."

"Now these incarnations are tempering themselves, cultivating themselves, creating themselves, and then condensing their battle intent, which is integrated into my soul and transformed into my path of battle..."

"Good, good... Let's continue cultivating like this. In the future, I can use these soldiers within me to empower the human army under my command, causing a qualitative change in their fighting spirit and strength. I can also directly evolve endless soldiers from within me to fight. In short, there are many benefits."

Di Xiao smiled and continued cultivating. Han Xin and Zhang Liang, having seen through the situation, were even more shocked. After all, they had never seen the method Di Xiao cultivated among the human race before; clearly, it was a method created by Di Xiao himself. They were overwhelmed with emotion, unsure how to express it.

Many years have passed, and Di Xiao has finally awakened from his cultivation.

From pioneering the method of cultivation to achieving success in cultivation today.

Di Xiao has already cultivated to the realm of a true immortal, condensed his own origin, and evolved into endless soldiers and fighting spirit.

As Di Xiao stepped outside, he happened to see Xue Dingshan approaching. Xue Dingshan laughed and said, "Better late than early. Brother Di Xiao, you've come at the perfect time. Tang Sanzang is about to arrive. You can go to the Five Finger Mountain that I promised you before."

Xue Dingshan's sudden words left Di Xiao completely bewildered.

Di Xiao looked at Xue Dingshan with suspicion: "The Five Elements Origin of Five Finger Mountain is of little use to me now. There's no need for it at all..."

"Haha, Brother Di Xiao. My previous promise to send you to Five Finger Mountain to cultivate using the Five Elements Qi emanating from its source was a waste of your talents. In truth, the source of enlightenment at Five Finger Mountain is no simple matter."

"Legend has it that when the Buddha was still Duobao Daoren, the chief disciple of the Jie Sect, he obtained a trace of the ginseng fruit tree's essence from Zhenyuan Daxian through the help of Tongtian Shengren, and a trace of the peach tree's essence from Yaochi Shengmu. Later, he obtained the essence of the other three top-grade spiritual roots from other ancient and powerful beings, and finally condensed the Five Elements Essence."

"These five elements all originated from top-grade spiritual roots. They were refined by Daoist Duobao, interwoven with numerous divine materials and five innate top-grade spiritual treasures, to create a Five Elements Treasure Pagoda. Later, Daoist Duobao even borrowed the Qiankun Cauldron of Goddess Nuwa to reverse the origins and transform them into innate top-grade spiritual treasures."

"Afterwards, it was refined by Daoist Duobao for countless years, and in terms of quality, it was comparable to a half-step innate supreme treasure. Unfortunately, during the Investiture of the Gods, Duobao fought against the Sage Zhunti. In the end, this half-step innate spiritual treasure was also shattered."

"Later, after Duobao Daoren entered Buddhism, he used this fragment of spiritual treasure to refine his own Buddha-land in the palm of his hand. It then evolved into the Five Finger Mountain we see today. It can be said that the Five Finger Mountain before us, which appears to be a manifestation of the Buddha's supernatural powers, is in fact a fragment of a once half-step supreme treasure. The preciousness of its origin is beyond question."

As Xue Dingshan spoke, his eyes were filled with excitement and longing. After all, the origins of Wuzhi Mountain were truly extraordinary.

It was initially thought to be a manifestation of a divine power, but who knew that the predecessor of this divine power was actually a fragment of a half-step supreme treasure. Moreover, this half-step supreme treasure was crafted by Daoist Duobao using a small amount of the essence of five top-grade spiritual roots, along with countless divine materials and five top-grade spiritual treasures.

Such a precious item, even if broken, still contains a Daoist essence and profound meaning that are far beyond what ordinary spiritual treasures can match.

Di Xiao sighed and exclaimed, "I never imagined that Wuzhi Mountain had such a history."

"That's for sure. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Buddha to suppress that Monkey King. After all, the Monkey King was born from a five-colored stone, imbued with a little of the merit of mending the heavens, and also contained some of the creation left behind by the Goddess Nuwa from the five-colored stone."

"This kind of monkey, carrying the remnants of a sage, is impossible to suppress or destroy with ordinary things. It is only because the predecessor of this Five Finger Mountain once entered the Qiankun Cauldron and had a special origin that it was able to suppress and dissolve its essence."

Xue Dingshan revealed his true thoughts, and Di Xiao, listening with a sense of doubt, asked, "Such a treasure, and Tathagata just gave it up?"

"The Buddha would naturally not give up easily. But the Buddha made a deal with our Tang Dynasty, and the content of this deal was the Journey to the West. That is why Tang Sanzang was reincarnated in the Tang Dynasty." Xue Dingshan smiled slightly, as if he was very proud.

Clenching his fist, he said with slight emotion, "It was because of this transaction that Buddha gave Five Finger Mountain to our Tang Dynasty. It was part of the deal. Originally, the royal family planned to take Five Finger Mountain away before Tang Sanzang arrived. However, because of your previous merits and the fact that you have enhanced the fortune of the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty has decided to give Five Finger Mountain to you."

"I see!" After hearing this, Di Xiao understood what was going on. Although Di Xiao had been cultivating all these years, he was still very aware of the changes in the outside world.

He was acutely aware of the profound impact his actions had had on the entire human race and the Tang Dynasty. In particular, the Tang Dynasty's use of Emperor Xiao's creation of the Thirty-Six Stratagems to dramatically increase its national fortune and extend its lifespan was incredibly beneficial.

However, due to various reasons, many rewards cannot be given to Di Xiao directly. So, we'll take advantage of this opportunity to give them to Di Xiao.

The Five Finger Mountain, formed from a fragment of a supreme treasure, can be considered a reward and compensation from the Tang Dynasty.
