Foundation Establishment Third Layer
With the Old Ancestor in seclusion, Yang Tianyou became the highest leader of the Lineage. However, the Yang Household is now full of talented people, so he doesn't have much to do. He only needs to grasp the general direction of development, and the specific implementation will naturally be handled by other elders and deacons.
Time flies, and another six months have passed.
On this day, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi suddenly gathered above the courtyard where Yang Tianyou lived, and then disappeared into the Seclusion Chamber like a whale sucking in water.
After a long while, a domineering aura soared into the sky, mixed with an exceptionally sharp Blade Intent.
On the futon, Yang Tianyou, with his five hearts facing the sky, slowly opened his eyes, and a beam of intense light shot out. Then, the aura around him, which had been surging like a river, began to subside.
Call--
Exhaling a breath of stale air, Yang Tianyou's eyes revealed a smile.
His cultivation progressed smoothly. During this seclusion, he successfully raised his cultivation level to the Foundation Establishment Third Layer, and his Blade Intent also improved significantly, now being able to materialize 20% of it.
In addition, the Divine Ability contained within Great White Gold Eyes are also quite extensive.
In particular, the Magnetism Power was already showing signs of stirring.
It is estimated that as long as his cultivation level breaks through to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, he will be able to master this powerful force.
Normally, in the Foundation Establishment Realm, every three levels constitute a minor realm.
Within three layers, you generally won't encounter bottlenecks.
However, there is a very obvious bottleneck between the third and fourth floors, and between the sixth and seventh floors, which is not so easy to overcome.
Taking Foundation Establishment Cultivator with Three Spirit Roots as an example, if they do not use any Spirit Items and cultivate in an area with abundant Spiritual Qi, it will take them about thirty years to cultivate from the Foundation Establishment First Layer to the peak of the Foundation Establishment Third Layer.
However, breaking through the bottleneck of the Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer sometimes takes them more than ten years, or even longer.
At this point, special Spirit Items are needed to assist.
Realm-Breaking Pills, such as the Second-Rank Low-Grade [Origin-Breaking Pill] and the Second-Tier Middle-Grade [Purple-Rhyme Obstacle-Breaking Pill].
Realm-Breaking Talisman, such as the Second-Rank Low-Grade [Spirit-Ascending Talisman] and the Second-Tier Middle-Grade [Azure-Jade Barrier-Breaking Talisman].
After using these Spirit Items, cultivators can break through the realm barrier at an extremely fast speed, and then go back to refine their Spiritual Power, saving a lot of time in the process.
This is why breakthrough-level Spirit Items are generally very expensive.
Furthermore, due to the difficulty in refining it, it is basically controlled and monopolized by powerful forces, especially several key materials, which generally do not flow out.
However, these are not problems for the Yang Household Golden Core Household stage.
The Golden Core Force and the Foundation Establishment realm are completely different concepts.
The former has already entered the middle level of the Lu Wu Realm, and the benefits he enjoys are incomparable to those of the latter.
With these thoughts swirling in his mind, Yang Tianyou sent a message to Zhiming, instructing it to go to the Lineage treasury and exchange Contribution Points for some Talisman Crafting resources.
If he remembered correctly, the Yang Household's treasure vault should contain several sets of materials for refining Spirit-Ascending Talisman, all of which were collected by the Purple Moon Trading Company through various channels.
The method for refining the Spirit-Ascending Talisman is found in the "Yang Clan Talisman Scripture," which Yang Tianyou had long since mastered.
Not long after, a knock came at the door. Yang Tianyou opened the stone door with a flick of his sleeve, and Zhiming, who had grown a bit bigger, ran in, carrying a Storage Bag in his mouth.
A year has passed, Zhiming's cultivation has broken through to the peak of the First-Tier Superior-Grade.
If Yang Tianyou hadn't forced it to hone its cultivation, this guy would have already reached the Tier 2 tier a few months ago.
This level of achievement is entirely due to the initial activation of Zhiming's bloodline.
Three months after Yunhua's Extreme Yin Qi, Yang Tianyou gave Zhiming some Wealth Qi to absorb, and then this guy's cultivation level jumped directly to the First-Tier Superior-Grade.
His speed did slow down after that, but it only took him half a year to reach the peak of the First-Tier Superior-Grade cultivation. Then, Yang Tianyou forcibly suppressed him for several months.
In retrospect, the suppression over the past few months has been quite effective. Zhiming's previously fragile realm has become extremely stable, and he can now begin his breakthrough to the Tier 2.
Stroking his smooth, silky black fur, Yang Tianyou said with a smile, "Three days from now, I'll take you to the Wolf Den to break through."
"Woof..." Zhiming very happy, his two big ears twitching back and forth.
Yang Tianyou waved his hand, telling Zhiming to go play by himself, then picked up his Storage Bag, took out the materials, and began Talisman Crafting.
First, the raw materials are processed to refine the Blank Talisman Paper for the Spirit-Ascending Talisman, which uses the bark of a tree called the Red Tree.
Not only can Red Tree store a large amount of pure Spiritual Power, but it also has excellent conductivity. When made into Spirit-Ascending Talisman using a unique refining method, it can break through realm barriers.
Activating the Fire-Controlling Technique, the Five-Element Spirit-Transforming Talisman in his Dantian trembled slightly, releasing streams of Fire Attribute Spiritual Power.
The Tier 2 True Fire burned fiercely, gradually refining the impurities from the Red Tree.
Four hours later, he began refining the Spirit Ink.
Three more hours passed, and all the materials were processed. Yang Tianyou then picked up his brush and began to draw talismans.
Although the Spirit-Ascending Talisman is only Second-Rank Low-Grade Talisman, its crafting difficulty is higher than that of most Second-Tier Middle-Grade Talisman. However, this is not a problem for Yang Tianyou, whose Talisman Crafting- making skills are becoming increasingly superb.
The brushstrokes flowed like dragons and snakes, completed in one go!
As the last crimson light faded, a pale red Talisman floated silently in mid-air.
Yang Tianyou reached out, glanced at the Spirit-Ascending Talisman, and then put it away.
Then, he stood up, walked out of the Seclusion Chamber, and came to the courtyard.
Fengling and the others had gone off to play somewhere, but Zhiming was quietly lying on the ground. When he saw Yang Tianyou, he ran all the way to his arms.
Holding the chubby little bundle in his arms, Yang Tianyou lay comfortably on the Bamboo Chair and picked up a book of Cultivation Miscellany to read.
As the sun sets in the west, the sky is filled with rosy clouds, the Jade Rabbit peeks out from behind the clouds, and the stars begin to return to their places.
The night was cool as water, but the atmosphere was very lively, not only because Father Yang Qiongchu and Mother Duan Hongyu were both returning home today.
And because of the latter, they brought back a chubby, fair-skinned boy.
The boy's name was Yang Xuanyang. During the Spirit Root Testing Assembly in Purple Moon Town two years ago, he was found to have the aptitude for Two Spirit Roots Goldwater spiritual roots, so he was included in the Lineage and ranked 26th in the Xuan Generation.
At this moment, eight-year-old Yang Xuanyang was glaring at Fengling, with two plates of Beast Meat between the two.
They're having a contest to see who blinks first.
The losing side must give their Beast Meat to the other side.
Yuan Ba, Ruoqing, and Zhiming sat side by side, watching their match with identical expressions.
At the dinner table, Yang Tianyou watched this scene with great interest and casually remarked, "It's clear, Mother, you really like this boy."
"Mm!" Duan Hongyu nodded, holding a steaming cup of Spirit Tea.
"Xuanyang grew up in the restaurant since he was a child. I never expected that he would actually discover that he has Spirit Roots, and even Dual Spirit Roots. It is both reasonable and emotional for me to take him under my wing and nurture him."
"Moreover, he has a great talent for cooking; he's already First-Tier Low-Grade Spirit Chef!" Duan Hongyu said, sounding quite proud.
After all, Yang Xuanyang was taught by her personally. If it weren't for the blood connection, Duan Hongyu would probably have taken him as a disciple long ago if they were in a sect.
