"Hee hee, Junior Brother Xiao, that is not quite right!" Qian Diheng said with a smile. "Martial Uncle Wu Nai must have already told Junior Brother Xiao about the Condensing Knowledge Treasure, no?"
Xiao Hua shook his head. "Master never mentioned it. He knew I came from a Rogue Cultivator background and that Foundation Establishment had not been easy for me, so he feared I would be distracted and never brought up the Condensing Knowledge Treasure. My eldest senior brother did mention some things about it while chatting with me."
"Mm, that must be the case!" Kun Feiyan said with a smile. "Senior Xiang must have also set his sights on the Condensing Knowledge Treasure before, but it is simply too rare. If Senior Xiang had possessed such fortune, he probably would not have needed fifty years to establish his foundation!"
"I had always thought it was merely a legend. A Condensing Knowledge Treasure is formed when a Foundation Establishment or even Golden Core cultivator, before their lifespan ends, uses a special secret technique to condense their cultivation insights. Leaving aside the fact that this secret technique has an exceedingly low success rate, less than one in ten thousand—even its side effects alone... who would dare try it recklessly?" Xiao Hua shook his head in clear disbelief.
"Hee hee, what side effects? It merely turns one at once into an ordinary mortal bereft of consciousness and cultivation, left to endure the torment of waiting for the end of one's lifespan." Kun Feiyan said indignantly, "But if this senior's reincarnated body finds the Condensing Knowledge Treasure again, they can immediately comprehend the insights within it. Though their cultivation might not recover in the blink of an eye, the realm of their Dao heart would immediately return to its level from before
