But these five Taoists were different from Minghe, who was now a Rakshasa. A Rakshasa's Origin was the Origin of chaos, thus he could directly absorb the Origin they had hunted. However, the five of them acquired Fruit of Origin through The Tao of Divine Law. Therefore, their Origins were still primordial Origins. They could only consume the Origin through other means.
There were two ways for a non-Rakshasa to absorb the Origin. One was through Body Tempering , that blended the Origin into your body and slowly turning it into the nutrition of your body. The other was through conversion which took a lot of time. You have to slowly turn it into primordial Origin, and then have it blend into your own Origin. Although both ways worked, you would still waste a lot of the Origin.
