Foundation Establishment Great Perfection
Five years have passed quickly.
In the Green Lotus Garden, within the Green Lotus Pavilion, the door to a secret room opened, Shen Long emerged with a smile on his face.
His aura is much stronger than before, and he has already advanced to the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. He can consider breaking through to the Golden Core Realm.
Shen Long is one of the 72 Talents. According to the rules of the Spirit Control Sect, he can receive a Golden Core Spirit Item when he reaches the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. Du Yinyin rewarded him with a Golden Core Spirit Item, and with the Jade Sandalwood Fruit he obtained in the Secret Realm, he has a total of three Golden Core Spirit Item. In addition, he has accumulated a large amount of Merit Points, so he can consider trying to break through to the Golden Core Realm.
Shen Long took out a Communication Disk that was flashing red light, entered a spell, and asked, "Junior Brother Qian, how many Golden-Winged Fire Ant Inner Core have you collected?"
To transform the Gold-Eating Ant Queen into Golden-Winged Fire Ant, it needs to consume the Inner Core of a high-level Golden-Winged Fire Ant, the more the better.
"More than thirty, including three inner cores of late-stage second-tier Golden-Winged Fire Ant Inner Core."
Qian Dafu's voice rang out.
"No Inner Core of Third Rank Golden-Winged Fire Ant?"
Shen Long asked.
"I offered a high price to buy them, but there's been no news yet. Should I send you the Inner Core of the Golden-Winged Fire Ant I've collected first?"
Qian Dafu said.
"I'll go get it myself! I have something to take care of."
Shen Long said.
"Okay! Let me know when you're done, and I'll bring it to you."
Qian Dafu said.
After chatting for a few minutes, Shen Long put away the Communication Disk and went outside.
After leaving the Green Lotus Garden, Shen Long released the Snow Wind Sparrow Snow Wind Sparrow and walked onto its back.
With a gentle flap of its wings, the Snow Wind Sparrow stirred up a gust of wind and soared into the sky at great speed.
Upon arriving at Ice Silkworm Valley, Shen Long sent a Sound Transmission Talisman. Not long after, Chen Bing came out and led Shen Long into the Ice Silkworm Valley.
He arrived at the Ice Silkworm Pavilion and met Master Ice Silkworm and Xu Xin.
"Disciple greets Master."
Shen Long bowed respectfully.
"You've reached the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment, not bad. You can consider attempting to break through to the Core Formation Golden Core Realm."
The Master Ice Silkworm's face lit up with joy.
"It's all thanks to Master's good fortune."
Shen Long said modestly, his gaze falling on Xu Xin, and he smiled as he said, "Senior Brother has returned from his travels. It's been a long time."
"I'm still stuck at a bottleneck. I heard that Junior Brother Shen has made a great contribution. Congratulations!"
Xu Xin offered his congratulations.
He had not yet overcome his bottleneck, while Shen Long had already advanced to the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment and made great contributions.
"It's all thanks to my master. Without him, I wouldn't be here."
Shen Long said modestly.
"These are my insights from breaking through to the Golden Core Realm. You are one of the 72 Talents, so you can apply for a spiritual land to cultivate in seclusion and break through to the Core Golden Core Realm. However, since you have just emerged from seclusion, it is not advisable for you to immediately go into seclusion again. You can spend more time with other fellow disciples and chat about cultivation or other matters."
Master Ice Silkworm took out a Cyan Jade Slip and handed it to Shen Long.
"Yes, Master."
Shen Long agreed and accepted the Jade Slip with both hands.
Master Ice Silkworm explained in detail his experience in breaking through to the Golden Core Realm. Shen Long would ask questions when he didn't understand something, and Master Ice Silkworm would patiently answer them.
The conversation lasted for more than two hours, and Shen Long benefited greatly from it.
"Alright, go back and digest this properly. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to come and ask me."
"Master Ice Silkworm gave the order."
"Yes, Master."
Shen Long agreed and stepped back.
He went to the Free Trade Valley and found Qian Dafu.
"Senior Brother Shen, you could have just told me. There was no need for you to come in person."
Qian Dafu took out a Cyan Storage Bag and handed it to Shen Long.
"I had nothing else to do, so I came to see you."
Shen Long smiled slightly and accepted the Cyan Storage Bag.
"By the way, Xu Feng has advanced to the Golden Core Realm, so we should address him as Martial Uncle Master Xu now."
Qian Dafu said.
Xu Feng recently advanced to the Golden Core Realm, becoming a newly promoted Core Formation Cultivator Spirit Control Sect.
"This is good news! I also plan to go into seclusion to break through to the Golden Core Realm."
Shen Long said.
"I believe Senior Brother Shen will definitely succeed. Congratulations in advance!"
Qian Dafu said with a smile.
After chatting for about fifteen minutes, Shen Long took his leave.
Back at Green Lotus Garden, Shen Long entered a secret room.
He took out the Spirit Control Tower, infused it with Law Power, and the Spirit Control Tower emitted a dazzling spiritual light, drawing him into Spirit Control Tower.
Shen Long arrived at the second floor, where an astonishingly high temperature immediately hit him.
He arrived at the cave where the Red Lotus True Flame was located; it was still trapped.
Shen Long activated the Formation, and a huge Crimson Fire Phoenix flew out of the cave, accompanied by rolling heat waves.
Shen Long summoned the Golden Condensation Mirror Golden Condensation Mirror and infused it with his Law Power. The mirror surface shone brightly, emitting a golden glow that enveloped the Crimson Fire Phoenix.
The Crimson Fire Phoenix floated motionless in mid-air, as if frozen in place.
Shen Long unleashed a Cyan Flying Knife and a Golden Flying Knife, tearing the Crimson Fire Phoenix into eight pieces. The Crimson Fire Phoenix transformed into a large patch of Crimson Flame, which quickly gathered together and transformed into a Crimson Fire Phoenix again. Just as it took shape, it was shattered into pieces by Shen Long once more.
After repeating this process more than ten times, the time it took for the Crimson Flame to condense slowed down.
Shen Long chanted incantations, channeling his magic into the flames, and unleashed Innate True Fire that shot straight towards the Crimson Flame.
He planned to refine this ball of Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire, which would increase his efficiency in alchemy in the future.

The Zhao Kingdom, the Xu Family.
In a secluded manor, Xu Yuyan, Chen Chi, and a voluptuous Purple-Skirted Woman sat in a Cyan Stone Pavilion, talking about something.
Xu Yuyan and Chen Chi went on a journey and successfully overcame their bottleneck, advancing to the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. They plan to break through to the Core Formation Golden Core Realm.
"What! Ancestor Yunfeng and the others have been killed?"
Xu Yuyan frowned as she spoke.
"Yes! They died in the Secret Realm, and we don't know who killed them. There are quite a few Third-Rank Spirit Beast in the Secret Realm, so the mortality rate is very high."
"That's what the Purple-Skirted Woman said."
"Regardless of the circumstances, Shen Long is indeed the murderer of Ancestor Yunfeng, and we will settle this score with him sooner or later."
Xu Yuyan voice, her face full of murderous intent.
"Let's return to the Hundred Ghosts Sect first and try to break through to the Golden Core Realm. Once we reach the Golden Core Realm, crushing a Foundation Establishment Cultivator will be no different than crushing an ant."
Chen Chi said proudly.
He is a descendant of Core Formation Cultivator and is confident that he can advance to the Golden Core Realm.
"This is the only way, Ancestor Yunyue. Has our Lineage encountered any trouble recently?"
Xu Yuyan asked.
"We have some conflicts with the Liu Clan of the Yin Corpse Sect. We can resolve them ourselves. If we need help, we will talk to the Liu Clan."
Xu Yunyue said.
"That's good."
Xu Yuyan nodded.
After chatting for half an hour, Chen Chi and Xu Yuyan left the Xu Family and returned to the Hundred Ghosts Sect.
······
A month passed quickly.
Shen Long emerged from the secret room, a look of joy on his face.
It took him a month to refine the Red Lotus True Flame.
The Red Lotus True Flame is currently at the second rank, corresponding to Foundation Establishment Cultivator. If it advances to the Third Rank, its alchemy efficiency will be even higher, and its power will be even stronger.
The Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire is also a type of demon. Shen Long left the Green Lotus Garden and came to the Scripture Depository. He spent a lot of Merit Points to replicate the cultivation techniques of the Spirit Control Sect's predecessors.
There are many kinds of spirits, such as Flower Demon, Tree Demon, stone figures, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire, thunder and lightning, etc.
