Water was the softest thing, but it could also be extremely soft. The power of water was an unremitting force, and thus, the power of water element was also the longest and most flexible.

The power of water lies in change. Those who become ice can be strong! If water and ice were to be cleverly transformed during a battle, it would definitely be able to create a miraculous effect.

Ouyang Yuan had previously told me that cultivating water elemental energy, due to its long length and gentleness, was most suitable for one pair of hands. This was one of the advantages of water elemental energy.

The power of the five elements is not as simple as it seems. Seems like the power of water elemental energy is the most versatile of the five elements.

Moreover, I have another idea. I have already understood fire essence. If I were to completely understand water, wood, metal, and earth elemental energy, then when the five elements fuse together, how powerful would it be? I am definitely not the only one who has such thoughts. The cultivation world is so vast, and just in the Northern Kingdom, the number of cultivators in the Immortal Cultivation World is already more than billions. With more people, geniuses will be born, and those who become Immortal Emperor will also have extraordinary talents.

In the world of cultivation, talent and diligence were important, but talent was absolutely the most important thing. The diligence of the day after tomorrow might be able to make up for some of it. It was just like a blind man who insisted on learning how to draw and wanted to use his brevity to spread it; why not change the course and learn vocal music?

My natural talent is still very high, so if I were to combine the five elements, it would definitely be a success.

He sat down cross-legged and restrained all the demonic energy in his body, slowly feeling the resistance from the cold qi.

When I was focused, I didn't know what time had passed. It was as if I was completely focused on the cold air and didn't know anything about the people outside. A hard worker pays a heavy price. Besides, I'm not stupid. I gradually understood a bit of the water element principle. He gradually stopped suppressing the cold energy and started to guide it, using his meridians to operate.

When I first comprehended Wind Essence, I changed it into a wind form, and with the help of the Heaven's Heart Pill, it was even easier. But now, without the Heaven's Heart Pill, I have such a large amount of cold energy as a reference, so it's not slower than when I first comprehended it. Furthermore, I already have some understanding of the power of water essence, and even though it's not much, it's still better than nothing.

The ice on my body gradually melted and turned into wisps of water vapor. However, it did not dissipate. Instead, it surrounded me. Although I could not see it, I could feel it. I focused on controlling it.

I forcefully suppressed the fire elemental energy and water elemental energy, but it did not affect my perception at all. As a result, my perception progressed smoothly, and traces of blue water elemental energy began to slowly condense in my meridians. As my spirit energy circulated, it also continued to circulate towards the Immortal Soul scroll.

After a while, the scroll appeared in his hand and the brush fell into his hands. On the brush shaft, besides the faint green light, there was also a light blue light.

After keeping the Immortal Soul Scroll, I was in a great mood. Although an unknown amount of time had passed, and I had experienced a life and death crisis, wealth comes from danger. Being able to comprehend the power of water element will be of great help to me in the future.

However, after comprehending the Water Element, I didn't feel the least bit grateful towards Yuan Ziyu. After all, I almost died here before. If I didn't have the demonic energy to hide it, then I would have already become a lifeless ice sculpture. What I don't understand is, why would she want to kill me? Is she really not afraid of the power behind me exterminating a small Thousand Illusionary Sect?

A trace of hostility appeared between my brows. I raised my head and a trace of killing intent appeared in my tightly shut eyes. However, it disappeared after a short while. My Spiritual Energy filled my entire body once again as I lifted my leg to head towards the third floor.

The bamboo house only has three floors. The third floor should be Yuan Ziyu, but to my surprise, there was nothing inside the third floor. There was no one there, no objects, and only an empty shell.

Is this a joke?

Killing intent slowly surfaced in my eyes once more. I sighed and whispered, "Yuan Ziyu, you're really playing with me."

He turned around and walked down the stairs. When he stretched out his feet, there were no stairs!

When my Fate Soul appeared, the square bamboo tower was like a cage, trapping me inside. The stairs from before were nowhere to be seen, and there were no windows either. They really treated me like a caged beast.

It would definitely be a lie to say that he did not feel any resentment or anger. The third floor was a test, but where was that person?

Resisting the urge to destroy this place with a single slash, I slowly paced around, feeling the difference. The first floor verifies my identity as a Soul Cultivator. The second floor has the intention to kill me, but it also tests my cultivation. Is the third floor a test of my intelligence, comprehension, or talent?

The surroundings were completely empty. There were no hints or explanations. Was breaking through this limit considered a pass? After a moment of hesitation, I decided it wasn't that simple. I sat down cross-legged and began to ponder the meaning of this empty room.

"Empty. Empty. Empty. Empty. Emptiness. Contemplation. Emptiness. Emptiness. Emptiness. Emptiness. Life. Emptiness. Death. Emptiness. Contemplation. Contemplation. Contemplation. Contemplation. Emptiness …"

As he focused his mind, Master Hui Kong's voice inexplicably resounded in his mind. He suddenly stood up, and his fate soul appeared to look around him. However, that voice disappeared, and there was indeed no one around him.

With a move in his heart, he once again sat cross-legged and calmed his heart, and the voice from before actually resounded in his ears once again. If he carefully recognized it, it was indeed Master Hui Kong. What is the relationship between this empty room on the third floor and Master Hui Kong?

Empty room, empty mind, empty mind … It turned out to be Buddhism. Could it be that after comprehending this layer of Buddhism, I will be able to walk out of this room?

It might sound simple, but how many people could actually do it? His heart was empty, his thoughts empty. His mind was empty, without a single thought. However, the more he wanted his mind to think about something, the more many unfathomable thoughts would pop up. His own thoughts were not under his control at all.

After sitting like this for a long time, he felt even more frustrated. He suddenly stood up and a saber shadow appeared. It was the Eighteen Style Coiling Dragon Blade!

"Roar!"

Using this blade technique from the demons was indeed very different from using spiritual energy. At this moment, the Wandering Dragon was filled with cyan demonic energy. It was ferocious and evil, and its aura was more than ten times stronger than before! Although my cultivation is now the same as Mo Ang's, this sense of familiarity and familiarity is irreplaceable.

With a wave of the blade, the dragon let out a roar and swung its body at the surrounding bamboo walls.

"Bam!"

The entire bamboo tower trembled violently, but it was completely unharmed. Not even a crack appeared on the bamboo wall. Even with Mo Ang's advanced Pulse Condensation cultivation, he was unable to break through a bamboo tower with a single blow!

Looks like this bamboo building, or just the third floor, probably did not originate from the hands of the people from the Thousand Illusionary Sect, and was very likely set up by Master Hui Kong. Just what cultivation is he and what is he planning to do?

After my attack, the anger in my heart was reduced by half. I slowly withdrew my blade shadows and continued to sit cross-legged. After venting, his mind was extremely clear as he listened carefully to the words that had just been spoken.

Once, twice, thrice … After repeating this countless times, a hint of relief appeared on my face. I finally understood a bit of the concept of emptiness.

Emptiness was both "nothing" and "nothing".

The scene in front of me was empty, the voice that had come before was empty, the slash I had made was empty, empty, empty. So, this empty room was empty, since it was empty, what was there to say about there being a door or a window?

I lifted my leg and without any hesitation, I head straight for a bamboo wall. Even though we were close, I didn't have any intention of stopping.

After passing through the bamboo wall, I felt the change in my surroundings. My fate soul appeared, and what I saw was me standing at the stairs leading to the third floor. I never went up, and my thoughts were still empty. Interesting!

He lifted his foot and walked up to the third floor. His Fate Soul was once again revealed. What he saw was a square table, with four people seated there. One of them had a white beard and a kind face. The other two women looked to be over twenty years old, and they were also as beautiful as jade. Their eyebrows were like willow trees, and their eyes were like almonds, and their red lips were like white teeth. Although they weren't powdered, they were still several times more beautiful than the moon. However, the woman on the left was wearing an azure dress and had a calm expression. There was a faint smile on her face, as if a cool breeze was caressing her face, causing her to give off an extremely intimate feeling. As for the girl on the right, she was dressed in black and had a slanted gaze and pursed her lips. There was a hint of coldness in her tone, but she seemed to be more mischievous.

Behind the girl in black stood two familiar people. One of them was dressed in white, with black hair cascading down to his waist, looking at me with eyes full of joy, as though he wanted to say something but was hesitant to do so. The other person stood there holding his sword. Although he was handsome, his face was filled with surprise and anger. His eyes were blazing with fire, causing his face to appear somewhat twisted. It was Sakura Swordsman Yin Tianhen, who he had previously exchanged blows with!

"This old one knew that you would definitely be able to get up here. Please take a seat!"

Upon seeing me, Ouyang Yuan hastily got up to give his seat to me. His expression was very respectful.

"Hmph, and here I thought that the White Fox Jushi was some kind of handsome man. I didn't expect him to be blind!"

The person who spoke was the black-clothed woman. If I'm not wrong, she must be Yue Qingsi's master, Yuan Ziyu.

"Quickly, please. Please forgive me if I have offended you!"

The one who spoke was the azure-clad woman sitting next to Ouyang Yuan. In the entire Thousand Illusion dimension sect, aside from the mysterious White Crane, there was only Ouyang Yuan's third martial sister, Luo Qing'er.

After keeping my Fate Soul, I lightly smiled and clasped my hands together, slightly bowing as I said respectfully: "Master Hui Kong, how have you been?!"
