Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality-Chapter 540: Water Separation Technique

"Stop talking nonsense. Do you think Five Elements Techniques are so easy to master?" The Transmission Elder scolded Lu Yang. If these techniques were so easy, what would be the point of the Five Elements Sect?

"Don't think that just because you got lucky and learned one Five Elements Technique, you can underestimate the study of these arts."

"Show me which Five Elements Techniques you have learned."

The Transmission Elder assumed that Lu Yang had only learned simple techniques like Fireball or Earth Wall, which is why he thought the Five Elements Techniques were easy.

Lu Yang had no choice but to demonstrate his skills one by one.

He opened his right hand, and a golden firebird appeared in his palm, lifelike and radiating intense heat, igniting the pop quiz papers on the podium.

Lu Yang then opened his left hand, and the Samadhi True Fire blazed fiercely.

The Transmission Elder was so focused on Lu Yang's palms that he didn't notice the small incident.

"What is this?"

"True Fire of the Golden Bird, Samadhi True Fire."

"What?"

He had never heard of these two types of true fire before.

When did the 108 types of true fire become 110?

Before the Transmission Elder could react, Lu Yang took out a seed and planted it in the ground.

The seed took root and grew into two lotus flowers, each with a Lu Yang standing on it—one clothed, the other dressed in lotus leaves.

"What kind of technique is this?" The Transmission Elder's eyes nearly popped out of his head. This was unheard of.

"Tree-Planting Technique."

Who uses the Tree-Planting Technique like this!

Before the Transmission Elder could voice his thoughts, he saw Lu Yang retract his clones and start burrowing through the ground, moving freely and even taking bites of soil.

"Earth Escape Technique?" The Transmission Elder was puzzled. Lu Yang's movements resembled Earth Escape, but the flow of spiritual power was different.

"I call it 'Shrink Earth'."

"Your own creation?"

"More or less, it was a lucky accident."

The Transmission Elder's face twitched. He hadn't seen any of the Five Elements Techniques that Lu Yang had demonstrated; these were definitely not the simple, easy-to-learn types.

"As for metal techniques, swordsmanship barely counts."

Lu Yang didn't plan to use the six-foot golden body technique; that was Young Sect Master Lu's move, and he wasn't Young Sect Master Lu.

"I haven't learned any water techniques."

The Transmission Elder was astonished. Lu Yang had mastered four of the Five Elements Techniques while still excelling in swordsmanship and maintaining his cultivation level.

Could it be that Lu Yang really had such a high level of mastery in the Five Elements Techniques?

Reincarnation... joining the Seek Tao Sect was a huge loss!

"Very well, very well. The Five Elements Techniques are interrelated and counter each other. Few can learn two opposing techniques. The fact that you can learn four of the five shows you have extraordinary talent in this area."

"Of course, I'm not bragging, but Lu Yang's talent surpasses even the eldest senior sister!" Meng Jingzhou praised Lu Yang's talent, feeling proud as his good friend.

"Yes, yes, I think so too," Li Haoran chimed in enthusiastically.

Man Gu scratched his head, feeling that there was more to their words. Was it just his imagination?

Forget it, I'll go with the flow.

"I think so too."

Only Tao Yaoye remained silent.

Lu Yang was sweating. Meng Jingzhou, are you trying to kill me with praise?

Such treachery!

"Since you can learn four of the Five Elements Techniques, the remaining water technique shouldn't be too difficult for you."

"If you can master techniques of all five elements, you can use their interrelations to create powerful combined techniques!"

"So, do you want to learn a water technique?"

Given the opportunity to learn a new technique, how could Lu Yang refuse?

"Please teach me, Elder."

Seeing Lu Yang's respectful attitude, the Transmission Elder's impression of him improved significantly. He nodded.

"Let me think. You should learn the Water Separation Technique."

"Water Separation Technique?"

"The Water Separation Technique is an extremely difficult water technique to learn. Even those with dual water spirit roots may not master it. But conversely, its difficulty means it holds great power. Once mastered, it can counter all water techniques!"

Everyone was shocked; they hadn't expected it to be so powerful.

The Transmission Elder stroked his white beard with a smile. "It is said that during the late Great Yu period, when the world was in chaos and the people suffered, a great divine ability user led a town's worth of people to safety but was blocked by the Tongtian River. The river was vast and turbulent, impassable by boat."

"The great divine ability user could cross the river himself, but the people could not."

"He stood by the river, tapped the ground three times with his staff, and the Tongtian River split in two, revealing an eighty-meter-wide path. The river on both sides rose into high walls of water."

"After the people crossed, the water walls collapsed, and the river returned to its original state."

"This is the Water Separation Technique!"

To split a river in two, no water technique could stand against this divine ability.

"At your current level, splitting a river is too difficult; your body couldn't handle it. But against water techniques of the same level, it should pose no threat."

Lu Yang took a deep breath; the Water Separation Technique sounded formidable.

"For example, like this."

The Transmission Elder took out a cup filled with water and lightly drew a line across it. The water in the cup split into two, clearly separated.

He drank half the water, leaving the other half unchanged.

"Please teach me, Elder." Lu Yang cupped his fists again.

"Alright."

The Transmission Elder didn't give Lu Yang special treatment; he explained the Water Separation Technique to all five of them.

This way, he could also gauge Lu Yang's talent in the Five Elements Techniques.

"To learn the Water Separation Technique, you must calm your mind, gather spiritual power in your hands, and form the Five Elements Water Seal. Connect the pads of your thumb and pinky, and spread the other three fingers..."

The Transmission Elder, worthy of being the Five Elements Sect's introductory teacher, explained the knowledge clearly, though it was dry and tedious.

In less than two hours, Lu Yang grasped the key to the Water Separation Technique, while Meng Jingzhou and the others, due to their limited talent, especially in techniques requiring a water spirit root, progressed slowly.

"Elder, I want to try."

With a thought, the Transmission Elder made a water ball the size of a basketball float in front of Lu Yang.

"If you can split the water ball in two, you have succeeded."

Lu Yang formed the Five Elements Water Seal with his hands and recited the incantation.

"All lakes and seas return to the mansion, nine rivers and eight lakes open four paths... Split!"

Lu Yang pointed at the water ball with his right hand, and with a light shout, the water ball vanished without a trace!

The Transmission Elder: "..."

This isn't right, where did the water ball go?

"Try again."

He conjured another water ball and signaled Lu Yang to try again. Lu Yang used the Water Separation Technique, and the water ball disappeared again, leaving no trace.

Lu Yang was puzzled too. How could the water ball just vanish? He wasn't practicing some illusion technique. He sought out Immortal Fairy: "Fairy, did you see what I did just now?"

Hearing that Lu Yang was learning a technique, Immortal Fairy had been observing closely from the spiritual space.

"I saw it. After you used the Water Separation Technique, the water ball didn't disappear; it became so small it was invisible."

"So small it's invisible?"

"Yes, it split into two gases. One gas had a small ball orbiting another small ball, and the other gas had eight small balls orbiting one small ball."

"These two gases are common in the air."

Lu Yang: "..."

So I split the water into hydrogen and oxygen?
