Foundation Establishment
Chen Mobai, who disappeared immediately after leaving Divine Wood Sect and returned to Chicheng Mountain, attended classes for another two months.
Although he seemed to win the Sect Grand Competition easily, in reality, every drop of Liquid Spiritual Power he used represented his all-out effort.
If he hadn't mastered the Spirit Controlling Technique and Spiritual Sense far stronger than that of a typical Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer, he probably wouldn't have been able to control the overwhelming power of the Sword Qi Like a Rainbow energy.
With Spirit Stone in hand, the depleted spiritual power recovers quickly, but the recovery of Spiritual Sense takes some time.
It just so happened that during these two months, Chen Mobai read through all sixteen books on the Foundation Establishment of the Longevity Sutra Scriptures that E Yun had given him, as well as some Foundation Establishment books on Wood Attribute cultivation methods from the Dao Academy.
After confirming that he understood everything, he called his teacher at the Dao Academy to ask for leave and apply for Foundation Establishment.
"I remember you just tried it last year during finals, didn't you?"
After hearing this, Che Yucheng asked a question in surprise.
At that time, Chen Mobai applied for his own Foundation Establishment Trio and exchanged two portions of Mysterious Fire Spirit Liquid with his credits. The final result was that he completed the first step, "Tendon Cleansing Marrow Washing," and was stuck on the second step, "Condensing Qi into Liquid," using the Critical Point Method.
"When I woke up this morning, I was struck by a sudden inspiration. I had a profound feeling that the opportunity for me to Foundation Establishment was right at this moment."
Chen Mobai could only make things up. He certainly wouldn't say that he had been infiltrating a sect in the Other Realm for more than three years and had painstakingly obtained an extremely precious Foundation Establishment Pill.
"Alright then, I'll grant you this leave. If you successfully Foundation Establishment, everything will be fine. But if you fail to Foundation Establishment, you won't lose a single one of the 10 credits you've earned this year, or don't blame me for punishing you."
Che Yucheng was unable to refute Chen Mobai's mysterious inspiration. When cultivators break through realms, they usually have this kind of feeling and are mostly successful.
However, as is customary, after Foundation Establishment Failure, it is best to wait a year before trying again.
However, with the Foundation Establishment in hand, Chen Mobai truly felt that he could succeed this time.
This isn't some mysterious or mystical feeling.
Rather, it is based on scientific evidence.
At the front desk of the Cultivation Room in Building Nine, two girls in school uniforms were sitting.
They were students working part-time here. Chen Mobai recognized one of them, who had short hair and seemed to be a year ahead of him, making her an upperclassman. The other girl, with long, flowing hair, looked unfamiliar; she was probably a freshman this year.
Chen Mobai handed his Student ID to the junior who came up to him, her round face beaming with a smile.
"Hi senior, are you looking to book a room?"
"Hmm, a high-grade Third Grade- tier Spirit Vein room."
Upon hearing this, the junior student who was about to complete the formalities looked surprised and turned to look at another senior student.
"Is it a high -Third Grade item?"
The senior student, who was playing on her phone, took the Student ID and confirmed that this was the highest level of Spirit Vein a student could apply for, which required the signature of a teacher in the Dao Academy.
"Good."
Chen Mobai nodded and showed them the photos of the files Che Yucheng had sent him on his phone.
The reason for the application, as seen in the document, is: Foundation Establishment.
The short-haired senior looked as if she had just realized something, and she looked the ordinary-looking junior up and down in surprise.
"You're only in fourth grade, right? You've already mastered the Critical Point Method."
"I grasped it by sheer luck."
Without saying much, Chen Mobai, under the admiring gaze of his junior, processed the Infinity time extension mode for the Third Grade superior Spirit Vein.
In other words, as long as the person is still in the Cultivation Room and the Merit Points on their Student ID have not been deducted, they can continue to cultivate there indefinitely.
"Senior, please take this. It's the Key."
After checking the documents, the short-haired senior handed the task over to the junior, and Chen Mobai nodded and accepted it.
He entered his room, sat on the futon, took out his phone, and opened the Foundation Establishment Treasure.
Foundation Establishment Success Rate: 31%!
Chen Mobai had already used this software when he was in the Sky River Realm, and the results were already out.
Click the small arrow to drop down and view the detailed calculation results.
[Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer Completed, Tendon Cleansing Marrow Washing Completed, Condensing Qi into Liquid Partially Completed, Foundation Establishment Success Rate Increased by 16%]
[Once the Critical Point Method is mastered, there is no danger Foundation Establishment Failure; with a good mindset, the success rate of Foundation Establishment increases by 1%]
[Introduction to Spirit Controlling Technique: After training your Spiritual Sense, the success rate of Foundation Establishment increases by 5%]
[Third Grade superior Spirit Vein, increases Foundation Establishment success rate by 9%]
He didn't add Foundation Establishment because the recipe for such pills is forbidden in the Immortal Sect, and writing it down might attract the attention of those behind the scenes.
However, according to the statistics from the Sky River Realm, there is a 30% chance of successfully Foundation Establishment with a single Foundation Establishment.
His Yao Beast Foundation Establishment Pill only has 80% of the efficacy of Orthodox Foundation Establishment Pill, let's say 24%.
Adding them up, that gives a 55% success rate for Foundation Establishment.
That's enough.
Although Chen Mobai is usually cautious, he is also a very decisive person in critical moments.
Although he knew that the Pill Toxin in this Foundation Establishment was definitely excessive, as long as he could successfully Foundation Establishment, he would have enough time to slowly refine and resolve the problem.
He took out a storage bag from his schoolbag and poured the Foundation Establishment into his palm.
Looking at the pills, which resembled Blood Jade.
His eyes suddenly sharpened, and he swallowed the precious elixir that he had painstakingly obtained over three years.
As soon as the pill enters the throat, a powerful medicinal force surges forth.
However, Chen Mobai had already completed the Tendon Cleansing Marrow Washing medicine technique), and the powerful medicinal force was perfectly absorbed by his body. It flowed through his entire body's internal organs and bone marrow along the resilient and unobstructed Twelve Main Meridians. After finding that there were no more areas that needed strengthening, it gathered again and transformed into a surging hot current that rushed directly into his dantian.
Without the process of Tendon Cleansing Marrow Washing consuming the medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill, Chen Mobai's Spiritual Power Vortex was temporarily unable to withstand such a vast torrent.
Cold sweat beaded on his forehead as he activated the Spirit Controlling Technique.
As his Spiritual Sense circulated, Chen Mobai continuously practiced the tenth level of the Longevity Sutra Scripture, while recalling the Foundation Establishment insights he had read.
This situation has been encountered by predecessors. Those with Heaven Spirit Root or even innate Innate Dao Body were born with the Tendon Cleansing Marrow Washing.
Faced with the powerful medicinal effects, one only needs to put the portion that can be refined into the dantian, and let the rest flow through the meridians, internal organs, and bone marrow, slowly circulating to improve physical strength while buying time.
The Spiritual Power Vortex began to operate, and a clear, crystalline light appeared on Chen Mobai's face. The rich spiritual energy of the Third Grade superior level transformed into mist and surged into his seven orifices, neutralizing the power of the Foundation Establishment Pill. Using the Longevity Spiritual Power as a catalyst, it began to condense the third drop of liquid spiritual energy, the fourth drop, the fifth drop...
Soon, he condensed the ten drops of Longevity Spiritual Power needed for Foundation Establishment.
At this point, only 70% of the Foundation Establishment Pill's potency had been used, but Chen Mobai dared not convert any more.
He felt a heaviness in his dantian, knowing that he had reached his current limit.
Only one last step remains.
With one burst of energy, the remaining 30% of the medicinal power transformed into a warm current that surged into the Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness.
With a deafening boom, a muffled thunderous roar seemed to resound in his mind! Chen Mobai felt his Spiritual Sense being instantly expelled from the Tian Ling! This was his Spiritual Sense Projection!
