To be on the safe side, Chen Yao used 17 million of the 19 million Fires of Faith.

Ten million of them were used on the newly mastered way of thunder, and seven million were used on the way of time.

In this way, the Way of Thunder is not much worse than the Way of Time. Coupled with the three major elements of Fire, Gold and Water, even if the effect of the Way of Thunder this time is not as great as Chen Yao imagined, it can still provide a backup.

Thinking of this, Chen Yao set his sights directly on the Way of Wood and the Way of Earth.

These two must be understood, even if not for the possible coordination between the five elements, but for the sake of those subsidiary runes.

Thinking of this, Chen Yao set his gaze on the earth rune totem.

“You first.”

After one million fires of faith were consumed, Chen Yao entered the state of enlightenment.

What made him feel magical was that this time entering the Dao was very easy, even easier than the Dao of Fire.

Basically, after Chen Yao’s consciousness touched the Way of Earth, the Way of Earth was like a young swallow returning to the forest.

However, the quick comprehension of the Way of Earth did not prevent the thunder tribulation from coming.

Without worrying about the strange reaction of the Way of Earth, Chen Yao did not directly use the Vajra Mountain Dharma Body when resisting the thunder catastrophe this time, but instead controlled his own Way of Thunder.

When the purple thunder appeared in his hand, Chen Yao even felt that the calamity clouds above his head were stunned for a moment, and then the rumbling sound became louder.

“Uh, is it possible that not only will the power not decrease, but it will become more powerful?”

To Chen Yao’s astonishment, the first wave of thunder struck.

Just when Chen Yao wanted to throw the Thunder Dao in his hand, he stopped.

Because he sensed it.

It seems… he can control the thunder essence in this thunder tribulation?

Thinking of this, the purple thunder essence in the first thunder tribulation was directly separated from the thunder. Without the purple thunder essence, the thunder scattered in all directions in just one thought.

As for the purple thunder energy controlled by Chen Yao, it slowly merged into the void and disappeared.

Seeing this scene, Chen Yao laughed.

But when the second wave of thunder came, Chen Yao could no longer laugh.

Because when he was controlling the purple thunder essence, he almost pulled it out of the thunder, as if there was someone in the thunder who was fighting with him for the ownership of the thunder essence.

Unfortunately, he failed to snatch the spot from Chen Yao.

This discovery gave Chen Yao renewed spirit.

Sure enough, after the third wave of thunder struck, Chen Yao had not yet pulled out the purple Taoist essence before the thunder struck him.

In desperation, Chen Yao could only resist with the Vajra Mountain Dharma Body.

Compared to the last time when the Vajra Mountain Dharma Body withstood three waves of thunder tribulations, this time the Vajra Mountain Dharma Body was not so capable. Chen Yao had to take it back after only one thunder tribulation.

Looking at the fourth wave brewing, Chen Yao directly released the flow of time!

The speed at which the lightning with electric arcs descended suddenly slowed down, and Chen Yao began to pull the purple Dao essence.

Sure enough, this time it was easier than the second wave of thunder tribulation.

This was followed by the fifth and sixth waves, and all of them were operated in the same way.

After the seventh wave arrived, the flow of time had been exhausted. Chen Yao could only blast out all of his thunder energy to offset nearly half of the power of the seventh wave of thunder.

The remaining half of the wave was directly calmed by the Way of Water.

When the nine waves of thunder were over, most of Chen Yao’s fire skills were still useless!

Watching the calamity clouds dissipate, Chen Yao sighed.

“It would be great if the Thunder Rune also had a group of subordinate runes. Then, we might be able to withstand the thunder tribulation with just the Way of Time and the Way of Thunder.”

Chen Yao sighed a little, but among the alien races related to thunder in the Ten Thousand Mountains, he only found the bird people. There were one or two other totems related to thunder and lightning, but the degree of fusion provided was too little, less than one million fires of faith.

Retracting his thoughts, Chen Yao reached out his hand.

A thick, earthy yellow aura appeared. Unlike mastering other Daos, Chen Yao felt that the Dao of Earth was very close to him.

“Is it because I am a pillar?”

Chen Yao was surprised.

But he had tried it before, and his true body did not seem to belong to the earth attribute among the five elements.

Feeling the heaviness of the earth’s essence, Chen Yao looked at the inverted mountain beneath his feet.

In the past ten days, he has expanded the Upside-Down Mountain. Now, the worship square alone has an area of ​​ten thousand square meters, but it has not been compressed too many times.

Now, Chen Yao has an idea.

The essence of the earth in his hand spread out, and soon, the entire sacred mountain was covered by the essence of the earth.

When Chen Yao began to reinforce it, the entire inverted mountain made a crackling sound.

When Chen Yao compressed the density of the sacred mountain before, the entire sacred mountain would shrink, and Chen Yao would need to add soil and rocks again.

But this time it was different. While the volume of the sacred mountain was compressed, newly generated soil and rocks filled the compressed space. As a result, Chen Yao could only hear crackling sounds, but did not see any movement from the inverted mountain under his feet.

This continued for dozens of breaths before Chen Yao withdrew his earth essence.

Looking at the upside-down mountain below his feet, Chen Yao walked to the edge and stomped his foot.

Muffled thuds were heard, but the edge of the sacred mountain under Chen Yao’s feet did not crack at all.

Chen Yao was surprised.

These kicks of his are not something that someone with supernatural powers can perform.

If it were placed on a mountain among the Ten Thousand Mountains, Chen Yao’s kick could penetrate a mountain!
But now, he deliberately went to the edge and failed to crush it even when he stepped on the edge. This was enough to show how solid this inverted mountain was reinforced by the earth’s essence.

“I’d like to see how far I can go.”

As he spoke, Chen Yao borrowed the power of the upside-down mountain under his feet, and the Dharma body of Vajra Mountain appeared.

“Hey, this time the mountain’s will seems to be stronger than before… It’s not an illusion, it is indeed stronger. Will the earth’s way of essence make the mountain’s will stronger as well?”

Chen Yao thought about it and shook his head.

That shouldn’t be right.

The Tao essence of earth strengthens the inverted mountain, while the meaning of the mountain changes according to the overall shape of the mountain.

It can only be said that the Dao of Earth indirectly influenced the Mountain’s Will, but it cannot be said that the Dao of Earth strengthened the Mountain’s Will.

After understanding this, Chen Yao’s Vajra Mountain Dharma Body suddenly raised his foot and kicked down hard.

boom!
The entire inverted mountain trembled, but the edge was not damaged at all.

Chen Yao was a little surprised by this hardness.

“It seems that Dao Yun is still much stronger than normal matter. I’m afraid that only forces of other Dao Yun levels can destroy the Upside-Down Mountain. In this way, the name of the Divine Mountain is well deserved.”

As Chen Yao thought about this and looked at his Vajra Mountain Dharmakaya, he suddenly had an idea.

“What will be the result of integrating the Dao Essence of Earth into the Dharmakaya of the Diamond Mountain?”

Chen Yao thought so and did so.

As the Dao of Earth merged into the Dharmakaya, the originally ten thousand feet long Dharmakaya began to grow again. The Dharmakaya of the Vajra Mountain, the Vajra originally dominated, but at this time, the golden main tone of the Dharmakaya began to become the golden lines inlaid on the body, outlining the muscle contours of the Dharmakaya.

Don’t tell me, it’s pretty good-looking.

Seeing that his Dharma body was still growing, Chen Yao cut off the input of the earth’s essence.

In the end, the Vajra Mountain Dharmakaya… no, it should be called the Mountain Vajra Dharmakaya has occupied half of the ten thousand feet area on the Inverted Mountain.

The height even reached 50,000 feet!

Chen Yao lowered his head and looked at the inverted mountain below him, but did not stamp his feet.

He had a feeling that if he took this kick, the Upside-Down Mountain would crack.

So he raised his head and looked at the layer of strong wind above.

Since we can’t use the Inverted Mountain for testing, let’s try the Gangfeng Layer!
He squatted slightly and then jumped. Chen Yao’s Mountain Vajra Dharmakaya rushed straight to the strong wind layer above. The inverted mountain that served as a stepping stone was staggered by this jump.

That is to say, there is no one on the mountain, only some altars and gods, otherwise you would suffer.

As Chen Yao’s Shanyi Vajra Dharmakaya rushed forward, he began to input the Dao Essence of Earth again.

The Shanyi Vajra Dharmakaya also continued to grow, and by the time it reached the Gangfeng layer, it was already a full ten thousand feet in size.

Despite this, the moment the Shanyi Vajra Dharmakaya came into contact with the strong wind, it was still scratched with countless scars.

However, it is much stronger than the Vajra Mountain Dharma Body which is not reinforced by the earth’s essence.

Chen Yao rushed upwards again and found that the Mountain Vajra Dharmakaya blessed by the Earth’s Dao Essence was much stronger than simply using the Dao Essence to resist the strong wind.

Suddenly, Chen Yao thought of something.

“Since the Dao Essence of Earth can bless the Mountain Dharmakaya, what about the Dao Essence of Gold? The Vajra Dharmakaya?”

Chen Yao’s eyes lit up, and the golden Dao essence that was stronger than the earth Dao essence emerged and merged into the golden lines in the Shanyi Vajra Dharmakaya.

The golden color that originally served as a decoration began to take the initiative again and quickly spread throughout the Dharma body.

The earth color was directly covered up, becoming some light earth-colored lines on the body of the Dharma.

When the Golden Way was completely integrated, the 100,000-zhang Dharma body shrank back to 10,000 zhang, and was even shrinking.

Finally, it stopped after reaching a thousand feet.

Although his body was smaller, the strong wind from the strong wind layer where he was at this time, blowing on King Kong Mountain Yifa, did not cause much change except for some harsh metal friction sounds.

Although the golden color on the Dharma body was also being scraped away, it was almost invisible.

“Yes, the Dao Essence of Gold has also been strengthened, and it has the effect of 1+1 being greater than 2.”

Chen Yao controlled his Dharma body to fly towards the strong wind layer for a distance and then returned to the Inverted Mountain. When he fell, his volume was obviously smaller than before, but the Inverted Mountain suddenly tilted towards Chen Yao and could never return to its original position.

Chen Yao had no choice but to separate four sub-pillars from the main body to inherit the floating totem and put them into the inverted mountain. Only then did the inverted mountain slowly return to normal.

“The essence is in the concentration.”

This is how Chen Yao evaluated his Dharma body.

After taking back his Dharma body, Chen Yao began to integrate the totems of the previous affiliated tribes of the Earth Clan into the Way of Earth one by one.

After several hours, the integration of the Way of Earth was completed. Feeling the power comparable to that of the Way of Gold, Chen Yao once again spent one million fires of faith and began to enter the last attribute of the Way of Five Elements.

The Way of Wood!
Without the affinity of the Path of Earth, the Path of Wood encountered the thunder tribulation half an hour later.

The newly researched Dao Yun version of the Vajra Mountain Dharma Body condensed out, with khaki and gold colors blending together. Only ten thousand feet high, it already revealed an aura of ‘even if the sky falls, I can hold it up’.

Perhaps it was because he had just left and was called back not long ago, Jieyun was very violent this time.

As soon as the calamity clouds gathered, a violent bolt of lightning struck down.

Chen Yao did not use any Taoist energy to resist. He just flew straight up and resisted the first wave of thunder tribulation with his Dharma body.

The gold color becomes even brighter after being bathed in thunder.

Then came the second and third courses.

After enduring six waves of thunder tribulations, the Vajra Mountain Dharma Body could no longer keep its body steady.

Chen Yao withdrew his Dharma body and used the Way of Time in combination with the Way of Thunder and the Way of Hell to resist the seventh and eighth waves.

In the end, he actually used the two incompatible principles of water and fire to shatter the ninth thunder.

The clouds and fog dissipated, and the thunderbolt once again failed to kill Chen Yao.

But at this moment, Chen Yao had no intention of paying attention to the calamity cloud. When the Dao of Wood appeared, all the other five elements in Chen Yao’s body were activated.

For a moment, the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth surrounded Chen Yao and wrapped him tightly.

After a long time, the wood element among the five colors of Taoism dissipated first because it accounted for the smallest proportion.

As the wood element dissipated, the other four elements also dispersed.

Chen Yao opened his eyes and looked at the four kinds of Tao essence in front of him that did not interfere with each other, and felt happy.

His guess was correct. After comprehending the Five Elements, there were indeed differences.

Just now, when the Five Elements of Taoism merged, Chen Yao suddenly had a feeling that he could control everything in the world with ease.

And just in that short period of time, Chen Yao discovered that the Wood Dao had improved!

There are as many as a million fires of faith!

This is certainly not obtained out of thin air, but the Dao essence of the other four attributes transformed their own Dao essence into the Dao of wood.

It seems that the other four attributes want to make up for the shortcomings of the wood element.

But obviously, the speed of compensation was not fast enough, and the wood disappeared first, breaking the circular structure.

Chen Yao took a deep breath and began to integrate the subsidiary totems of the Mu clan into the Mu Dao one by one.

When all the totems had raised the Wood Path to a level similar to the other four, Chen Yao once again displayed the Five Elements Dao.

Five colors and five elements surrounded Chen Yao.

Not long after, a jaw-dropping scene appeared on the Upside-Down Mountain.

There are mountains rising from the ground, with flowers, plants and trees growing rapidly on them, metal rocks exposed on the surface, water mist gathering between the mountains and turning into streams, magma pouring down from the top of the mountain and running parallel to the streams, metal rocks appearing wherever the magma passes, flowers and trees are ignited by the magma and turned into ashes, and new buds are born when the water mist falls.

In less than a few dozen breaths, a mountain containing the five elements appeared on the Inverted Mountain.

The endless reproduction of the five elements has become the only scenery on the Upside-Down Mountain besides the altar, and it is also the most magical scenery.

After dispersing the Five Elements Dao Essence, Chen Yao looked at the mountain that was still constantly going back and forth, constantly being born and dying, and said with a smile: “From now on, you will be called the Five Elements Mountain, the Five Elements Mountain on the Upside-Down Mountain.”

Shaking his head and laughing, Chen Yao, who possessed all five elements, turned his gaze towards the direction of the Forbidden Mountains.

“It’s about time.”

In the blink of an eye, Chen Yao turned into various colors.

Some may shuttle through the mountains and forests, some may wander in the water, some may sink into the ground, and some may turn into golden light.

Until finally, a handful of flames appeared, merged into the void and left no trace.
