Foundation Establishment Realm_l

Several days later.

In the middle of the night, a quiet chamber atop Immortal Mist Peak.

This is where Zhou Sui retreated for his cultivation practice.

Having spent several intimate days with Leng Yuexi, his yearning for her had completely subsided.

On this night, he suddenly had an insight. His divine sense, True Yuan, and vital energy had all resonated, seeming to reach a perfect balance.

Thus, he knew that his opportunity for Foundation Establishment had finally

come.

Without hesitation, he immediately entered the quiet chamber to begin Foundation Establishment.

Boom – Boom – Boom—

Zhou Sui was seen sitting cross-legged on the ground, operating Insect God Sutra. His body was at the center of a massive Spirit Energy Vortex.

Countless nature’s spiritual energy flowed into his body.

No doubt, this was the third-stage Spirit Vein.

In terms of the concentration of spiritual energy, it surpassed the second-stage Spirit Vein by more than ten times.

This was the place with the richest spiritual energy he’d ever seen, no wonder even Golden Core Masters sought to cultivate in the third-stage Spirit Veins.

Cultivating in such a spiritually-rich place, he felt that his own practice was incredibly smooth.

It was extremely efficient.

“I’m bound to succeed in establishing the Foundation this time.”

Zhou Sui felt unprecedented confidence. Even though he possessed a high-quality Foundation Pill, he did not intend to use it. Instead, he desired to establish his foundation independently to cultivate a perfect Dao foundation.

The first stage of Foundation Establishment was the vital energy stage.

When a Qi Cultivator who has perfected his cultivation attempts to establish the foundation, a vast amount of nature’s spiritual energy would surge, pouring ceaselessly into the body, washing their vital energy like a waterfall. If one was old and frail, or had bodily deficiencies, they wouldn’t be able to withstand the force of this spiritual energy, resulting in a reverse flow of vital energy and instantaneous death.

However, Zhou Sui was different.

Having gone through the refining by Dragon Elephant Gu, his physical body had achieved success in Foundation Establishment, comparable to a Body Cultivator’s foundational cultivation.

If even his body couldn’t withstand the vital energy stage, then nobody could.

Swoosh-Swoosh-Swoosh—

Suddenly, a profound amount of nature’s spiritual energy rushed into his body.

No matter how much this spiritual energy washed through him, he remained unmoved.

His body instead seemed to host a dormant ancient dragon and a divine elephant, greedily devouring each strand of nature’s spiritual energy.

His body appeared like a black hole, easily swallowing and refining all the incoming spiritual energy.

It was then transformed into pure energy, directly infused into his Dantian Qi

Sea.

“Next up is the Mana stage.”

Zhou Sui’s eyes sparkled. He felt that the True Yuan within his Dantian Qi Sea had reached the peak.

For this stage, he was equally confident.

Because he was practicing the Supreme Cultivation Method of Insect God Sutra.

This immortal scripture pointed directly to the Dao, profound and unfathomable.

By now, he had refined eight Gu Insects in total.

Each Gu Insect was equivalent to a Dantian Qi Sea.

Meaning, the power of his True Yuan was nine times that of a same level Qi Cultivator at the ninth layer.

One can only imagine how dense the True Yuan within his body was at this moment.

Boom-Boom-Boom—

At this moment, as Zhou Sui operated the Insect God Sutra, a profound nature’s spiritual energy rushed into his Dantian Qi Sea. Under the pressure of the external spiritual energy, the True Yuan within his body began to transform.

Transforming from True Yuan into Mana.

Dark gold mist immediately emerged within his Dantian Qi Sea.

As time passed, the bottomless depths of his Dantian were filled with endless dark gold mist that looked like a world of mist or a cluster of dark gold clouds. “That’s it, it’s time for the third stage, the Divine Sense stage.

With a thought, Zhou Sui immediately began to mobilize his Divine Sense.

Truthfully, this stage was the easiest for him.

While other Qi Cultivators have to transform their Spiritual Sense into Divine Sense, the Spiritual Sense within his body had already transformed into Divine Sense corresponding to a late stage Foundation Establishment, which was already extremely powerful.

So, he had long since easily passed this stage.

Swoosh – Swoosh – Swoosh—

Under Zhou Sui’s operation of his Divine Sense, an invisible force permeated into his Dantian Qi Sea, imposing an invisible pressure on the dark gold mist. Under the stimulation, the golden mist began to compress again and again. After an unknown period, a dripping sound seemed to emanate from the depths of his Dantian Qi Sea.

Under the perception of Zhou Sui’s Divine Sense, the True Yuan within his Dantian had completely transformed. Drops of dark gold Mana liquid coalesced and fell from the clouds.

One drop, two drops, three drops…

The speed of Mana liquid formation accelerated until finally twenty droplets of dark gold liquid formed. Only when outside nature’s spiritual energy could no longer be absorbed, did it finally stop.

These twenty droplets of dark gold Mana liquid remained quietly within his Dantian Qi Sea. At this moment, his Dantian seemed to have genuinely transformed into a sea of dark gold, containing infinite energy.

However, these were only the twenty droplets of mana liquid contained in his own Dantian Qi Sea.

In fact, each Gu Insect within his body contained twenty droplets of Mana liquid.

Added up, that was a hundred and eighty droplets of Mana liquid.

From the very beginning, his Mana capacity was nine times that of other Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

But this was just the beginning, not the end.

“Marrow-Cleansing Bone Refining!”

Zhou Sui activated the Insect God Sutra. The Mana liquid deep within his Dantian Qi Sea began to circulate, cycling through arteries and veins, reaching every corner of his body to form a circuit.

Undoubtedly, this was the Marrow-Cleansing Bone Refining of Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

This indeed is the greatest benefit for a Qi Refiner advancing to the Foundation Establishment Realm and the true essence of Foundation Establishment.

Upon gaining liquid Mana, cultivators can mobilize it for Marrow-Cleansing Bone Refining.

With that, one’s body begins to evolve beyond the mortal coil, advancing towards an Immortal Body.

just one instance of Marrow-Cleansing Bone Refining can result in profound changes to the body and an increase in lifespan by two hundred and fifty years. It could be said that only through this can one really step into the path of cultivation, possessing a lifespan far beyond that of ordinary people.

And also attain extraordinary power.

“This is amazing.”

Zhou Sui was ecstatic.

Without doubt, he obtained even greater benefits than ordinary Qi Refiners.

Normal cultivators upon entering the Foundation Establishment stage, gam only twenty droplets of Liquid Mana.

But him? From the start, he had a hundred and eighty droplets of Mana liquid. From this, one can imagine the remarkable benefits his body could obtain.

Swoosh-Swoosh-Swoosh—

With the continuous circulation of Mana within his body, he felt his bones, skin, flesh, meridians, organs, and even every cell undergoing geometric amplification.

The massive influx of nature’s spiritual energy resulted in the visible enhancement of his body.

One cycle, ten cycles, twenty cycles, fifty cycles…

For this round, he completed a total of a hundred and eighty cycles, marking the end of the Marrow Cleansing and Vein Cutting phase..
