"Master, have you finished introducing the Five Elements Longevity Art? Can you pass it on to me now?" Lin Hao asked expectantly.

The remnant soul of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity controlled the floating small tower over three feet tall and gave it a gentle shake upon seeing his disciple's eagerness.

Immediately, a scroll made of animal skin flew out of the small tower and landed in front of Lin Hao.

"Disciple, this is the Five Elements Longevity Art," the remnant soul of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity continued, "First, memorize it."

"Alright," Lin Hao replied.

Inside the mysterious space, Lin Hao opened the animal skin scroll.

One by one, vigorous characters appeared before his eyes.

"Spiritual energy enters the body, travels through the Conception Vessel... and then passes through the Governor Vessel..." The scroll recorded the meridian routes through which spiritual energy circulated when cultivating the Five Elements Longevity Art.

"It's so complicated! Compared to the Xuanyue Qi Refining Art of the Xuanyue Sect, the number of human meridians used in cultivation is several times more!"

Lin Hao had a strong memory, but it still took him some time to remember these meridians.

About a quarter of an hour later, he withdrew his gaze from the animal skin scroll and said, "Master, I've memorized all the content inside."

"Well, your memory is not bad," the remnant soul of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity said, "Since I've already passed on the cultivation art to you, I'm just a remnant soul now and have nothing valuable left. I'll pass on this Eternal Longevity Tower to you as a gift for you to acknowledge me as your master."

This Eternal Longevity Tower was clearly an extraordinary treasure. Lin Hao's face lit up with joy upon hearing this, and he quickly expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Master."

"Disciple, I need to take a drop of your life essence blood so that the Eternal Longevity Tower can recognize you as its master," the remnant soul of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity said, "This process will be a bit painful. Bear with it."

"Whoosh!"

Before Lin Hao could respond, the small tower over three feet tall in front of him gave a gentle shake, and a ray of light shot towards him and disappeared into his chest.

"Puff!"

Lin Hao felt as if his heart had been pierced through, and the pain was excruciating.

Fortunately, the pain disappeared after just a moment.

The ray of light that had shot out from the small tower left Lin Hao's chest, carrying a drop of bright red blood, and returned to the tower.

Immediately after that, he felt a mysterious connection with the Eternal Longevity Tower.

"This is the recognition of the spiritual treasure's master! How miraculous!" Lin Hao could sense the friendly intention coming from the small tower.

"The Eternal Longevity Tower was originally a celestial artifact, but it was severely damaged in that great battle and degenerated into a top-grade spiritual treasure," the old voice of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity rang out again, "Although the attack methods of this top-grade spiritual treasure have been destroyed, it can assist you in your cultivation."

"Please, Master, explain in detail how to use this spiritual treasure," Lin Hao said respectfully.

"Using this spiritual treasure is quite simple. It has two functions. One function is to accelerate your cultivation speed. For example, when others absorb a spirit stone, they can probably only absorb about half of the spiritual energy in the spirit stone, and the other half will be wasted. However, with the Eternal Longevity Tower, you can absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stone perfectly without wasting a single bit," the remnant soul of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity continued.

Lin Hao's eyes lit up. With this treasure, one spirit stone could be equivalent to two spirit stones.

"Master, what's the second function of the Eternal Longevity Tower?" he asked.

"The second function...," the remnant soul of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity paused for a moment and said, "is to turn waste into treasure. For example, if you have a first-order Qi-tonifying pill that has become a waste pill, put it into the Eternal Longevity Tower and provide the tower with some spirit stones, and you can turn the Qi-tonifying pill from a waste pill into a top-quality pill."

"This Eternal Longevity Tower can not only improve the quality of pills but also enhance the quality of spirit herbs and magic weapons."

"For example, for a first-order low-grade spirit herb, if you give the Eternal Longevity Tower several low-grade spirit stones, you can turn this first-order low-grade spirit herb into a middle-grade spirit herb."

"Even for an ordinary sword, as long as you provide spirit stones, the Eternal Longevity Tower can also improve its quality and turn it into a magic weapon..."

After the remnant soul of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity's introduction, Lin Hao already knew all the current functions of the Eternal Longevity Tower.

This treasure was simply incredible!

Just the function of the Eternal Longevity Tower to improve the efficiency of absorbing spirit stones alone, if known by people outside, could cause a bloodbath.

Coupled with its terrifying ability to turn waste into treasure, perhaps all the old monsters in the cultivation world would be unable to resist coming out to snatch it.

This tower was worthy of being a celestial artifact before. Even though it had degenerated into a spiritual treasure, it was still so powerful. Lin Hao couldn't help but feel his heart pounding with excitement.

"Alright, I've already passed on the Five Elements Longevity Art and the Eternal Longevity Tower to you. My remnant soul can't stay awake all the time and needs to go into slumber to recuperate," the remnant soul of the Immortal Venerable of Longevity said, "Before falling asleep, I have one thing to remind you of."

"What is it?" Lin Hao asked.

"I originally used a secret method that could affect one's mind to make that little girl arrange for you to be in the area for the miscellaneous disciples of the Xuanyue Sect."

"Who would have thought that you, in order to avoid being bullied by others, would use that little girl as your backer and spread the news that you're a genius everywhere."

"I'm afraid that the sixth-grade fire-attribute single spiritual root that you faked to deceive that little girl won't be able to be concealed in the Xuanyue Sect for long. It probably won't be long before the fact that you're a first-grade five-element spiritual root is exposed. You should be mentally prepared."

The Immortal Venerable of Longevity continued, "At that time, they will surely be curious about why your first-grade five-element spiritual root can cultivate so quickly and reach the first level of Qi Refining in just half a month. At that time, just say that you ate a fiery red fruit two years ago. Presumably, they won't drive you out of the sect."

Then, his voice disappeared.

"Master, Master!"

Lin Hao called out several times but received no response, so he had to give up.

Then, still in the mysterious space, his gaze fell on the small tower over three feet tall in front of him. After looking at it for a while, since he had already become the master of the small tower, with just a thought, his consciousness withdrew from the mysterious space.

On the wooden bed, Lin Hao, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes, with a shocked expression on his face.

The events that had just happened were too strange.

"Was it a dream?"

Lin Hao tried to communicate with the small tower again with his mind. Fortunately, his consciousness smoothly entered the mysterious space of the small tower again.

After trying several times repeatedly, he finally confirmed that what had just happened was real.

Lin Hao glanced at the bed next to him. The chubby Wang Fu was still sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, cultivating.

He quietly picked up a water cup not far from the bed and, with a slight movement of his mind, the water cup disappeared from his hand and appeared inside the Eternal Longevity Tower.

Besides being able to improve the efficiency of people's absorption of spirit stones and pills and having the function of turning waste into treasure, the small tower had a third function, which was to be used as a storage space.

"I can put important things into the small tower in the future," Lin Hao thought.

After a while, he communicated with the Eternal Longevity Tower again and took out the cup that he had put inside and put it back in its original place.

"Am I really a first-grade five-element spiritual root?"

Withdrawing his thoughts from the small tower, Lin Hao murmured to himself.

He couldn't help but sit cross-legged with his eyes closed and started to cultivate by operating the Xuanyue Qi Refining Art as usual.

Sure enough, without the Immortal Venerable of Longevity, his master, sending spiritual energy to him, Lin Hao felt that his current cultivation speed was at least thirty times slower than before, as slow as a turtle's pace.

At this speed of cultivation, he estimated that even when he got old, he would have no hope of forming the foundation, and it would even be difficult for him to reach the second level of Qi Refining.

"Let's try the Five Elements Longevity Art specifically for cultivating the five-element spiritual root," Lin Hao stopped operating the Xuanyue Qi Refining Art.

He took a deep breath and cleared his mind.

He began to guide the spiritual energy to circulate through the specific meridians in his body according to the method of the Five Elements Longevity Art.

The meridians involved in cultivating the Five Elements Longevity Art were too complicated.

Some meridians were too tiny. When Lin Hao cultivated for the first time, the spiritual energy flowed extremely slowly.

Moreover, when the spiritual energy flowed into certain meridians, a tearing pain came, like being pricked by needles.

He trembled slightly all over, gritted his teeth, and persisted in cultivating the Five Elements Longevity Art.

When several hours had passed and it was slightly dawn outside, Lin Hao finally managed to guide the spiritual energy to complete a cycle in his body according to the cultivation method of the Five Elements Longevity Art.

"Not bad!"

A look of surprise appeared on his face.

Originally, his cultivation speed was almost thirty times slower. Under the cultivation art of the Five Elements Longevity Art, with his first-grade five-element spiritual root, his cultivation speed was only about six or seven times slower than when his master, the Immortal Venerable of Longevity, sent spiritual energy to him, which was almost equivalent to the cultivation speed of a first-grade single spiritual root.
