Starting with the titmouse, seventy-two transformations

Chapter 285 Watch me crush this old thief!

What is the foundation of the Way?

The foundation for entering the Tao.

This is crap.

Before this, Liu Sheng had studied many of the captured secret manuals and techniques, and the descriptions of entering the Dao were all very mysterious.

Various images, metaphors, allusions, and references, some even using mutual references, are used, making it like an encrypted file that is so difficult to decipher that it's impossible to understand.

The main character is a riddle teller.

It wasn't until this moment, when he himself had established his foundation and entered the Dao, that he suddenly realized the truth.

To put it simply, entering the Tao is actually the growth of an organ called the "Tao Foundation" within the body!

Thus, one can inhale and exhale the spiritual energy that roams freely between heaven and earth, transforming it into true qi within the body.

In his view, the cultivation of the Dao Realm begins with the growth of a "Dao Foundation," gradually developing an organ system within the body that circulates "True Qi."

This includes meridians, acupoints, dantian, jianggong (a point on the lower abdomen), zifu (another point on the lower abdomen), and so on.

Similar to the human respiratory system, circulatory system, digestive system, lymphatic system, reproductive system...

For Liu Sheng, who has had a "previous life" experience and has studied for more than ten years, this is exactly how it is from another perspective.

Many things seem mysterious, but when you explain them clearly, they're just like that.

However, the "foundation" of Qi cultivators varies, depending on their cultivation methods, the concentration of their true blood, their life experiences, and their temperament.

Even within the same sect, fellow disciples practicing the same cultivation method will have different foundations for their Dao.

For example, Du Bingyan's Dao foundation was a piece of exquisite jade, shaped like a hook, with water ripples, while her master, Abbess Jingyue's Dao foundation was a clear spring.

Dao Foundation is a unique imprint left by each Qi Refiner in the world, similar to DNA.

Therefore, there is a saying that "once the foundation of the Dao is established, the universe is settled, and nothing can be easier."

Unless one possesses a rare and precious treasure like "Yangzhi Ganlu," the courage to abandon one's cultivation and start anew, the will to take life and death lightly, and sufficient attainments in cultivation.

All four are indispensable; otherwise, it is tantamount to courting death. Throughout history, only a handful of people have succeeded in this regard.

Tiger Demon Wu Song is one of only two such individuals in the world since the resurgence of spiritual energy.

"However, why does this foundation of mine... have such a strong sense of déjà vu?"

Liu Sheng looked inward into his dantian and saw the colorful stone lying horizontally amidst the mist. His lips twitched, and a strange look flashed across his eyes.

What if this colorful, strange rock eventually sprouts a stone egg, and then, with a gust of wind, transforms into a monkey?
So what am I? Am I a surrogate monkey?
Hey!
cut!
He shuddered, his pupils flashing with silver light as he extinguished all the strange and distracting thoughts in his mind.

I can't think about it anymore, or a golden cudgel might grow out of my head.

No, I just became acquainted with Brother Yang, what are you doing here, Brother Monkey?
Could it be that the grudges in Heaven haven't been settled yet, and have carried over to here?
Wait, could it be that...

Is this the mortal realm below Heaven?

Liu Sheng's breath hitched, he touched his lower abdomen, and shook his head vigorously.

I can't think about it anymore, or my head will explode!
It is clearly a great joy to establish one's foundation and enter the Dao, but why do I feel more and more fearful and uneasy the more I think about it?
The world I transmigrated to was clearly just an ancient world where spiritual energy was reviving, but it's starting to look more and more like...

"call out!"

A glint of cold light appeared first, piercing straight at Liu Sheng's throat.

Following her was Du Bingyan, who was surrounded by black mist, had black markings on her body, and a stiff face.

"when!"

Liu Sheng neither dodged nor flinched, completely unprepared, letting the sword pierce his neck, producing a crisp sound of metal clashing and sparks flying.

This sword strike not only failed to injure him, but also chipped off a section of the sharp sword tip.

This sword is a top-grade magic weapon, forged from more than ten kinds of spirit iron. It was a special reward from Shuiyue Nunnery to Du Bingyan after she became a Qi Refiner!
The sword tip broke off with a single blow.

"Only after the main body and the avatar reach the same level can all the enhanced talents be considered to have fully exerted their effects?"

Liu Sheng raised an eyebrow, suddenly realizing something. His right hand moved swiftly forward and grabbed the sword.

With a slight shake, without much effort, the magic sword shattered into pieces.

Progress, with a flick of his fingers, grabbed Du Bingyan by the neck.

The colorful stone foundation within his dantian trembled slightly, and his true energy surged, seeping into his body.

"Roar!" Faintly, the sound of an elephant's roar could be heard, and a flash of Buddha's light appeared.

"Crackling~"

After a series of soft sounds, Du Bingyan froze, and the black aura swirling around her dissipated.

The black markings that covered his entire body also completely disappeared.

Talent: Prison Suppression.

This talent allows one's true energy to contain Buddhist power, suppressing all demons in the underworld and making one unafraid of bewitching and mind-controlling techniques.

Previously, Liu Sheng's cultivation level was not high enough, so many of the properties added to his true qi did not take effect.

Now that he has forged his Dao foundation and generated true qi, with its many properties taking effect, the true qi carries many additional properties, and its power has skyrocketed.

"Waaah... What's wrong with me?"

Du Bingyan regained consciousness, stood up straight, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, and then said urgently:
"Be careful of that black mist from earlier..."

"Not afraid."

Liu Sheng reached out and smoothed her brow, then looked up at the dark, swirling face hovering in mid-air, staring at him, and smiled faintly:
"Watch me crush this old thief."

He told her to stay where she was and then stepped forward.

This old scoundrel has been alive for several chapters; it's time for him to go offline, otherwise people will complain about him padding the word count.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang!"

At the same time, Wu Song slammed several punches into the Mountain-Catching Whip, causing it to burst with yellow light and radiate brilliance. The intense aura of the Gen Earth pressed down layer by layer.

Like towering mountains, they pressed down one after another.

Even with his formidable strength and terrifying combat power, he was still jolted out of his wits and had to retreat a few steps to catch his breath.

With their strengths roughly equal, a single mystical artifact could determine victory or defeat, life or death.

"That damned Song dog, relying entirely on the advantage of divine weapons, what kind of hero is he!"

His eyes were red, he was furious, and he was cursing under his breath:
"If I get a decent weapon, I'll beat you to a pulp!"

"Master, I'm here to help you."

At this moment, Liu Sheng strode over.

He looked at Yang Zhi's corpse, missing an arm and battered all over, yet still holding the whip and standing tall, and said calmly:

"This mountain-driving whip is quite good; consider it a gift from your apprentice."

"I've taken on a fine apprentice!"

Wu Song's cheek twitched, secretly pleased, but fearing Liu Sheng's rash actions, he quickly said:

"My good disciple, you've just entered the path and don't know how powerful Old Dog Song is. Don't act recklessly..."

Unfortunately, it was too late to say that.

"cut!"

With a soft shout, Liu Sheng's eyes flashed with a powerful light, his gaze sweeping over several feet, and he froze Yang Zhi's corpse.

Despite the surging black energy around him, he was unable to move.

At that moment, a silver light flashed in his eyes, and a barely audible sword whistle arose in the void.

Yang Zhi's corpse suddenly paused, then his head fell to the ground, black blood splattered, and a foul stench filled the air.

"Roar!"

Seeing this, Wu Song, who was standing nearby, disregarded the reprimand, roared, pounced forward, and unleashed a series of grabbing, twisting, and tearing attacks, instantly dismembering Yang Zhi's body into eight pieces.

In an instant, a large amount of black energy surged out, forming a black net that burrowed into his body.

trap!

Yang Zhi's corpse was a trap from beginning to end!

The purpose is for Wu Song!
We've been waiting for this moment!
"break!"

The next moment, Liu Sheng threw a punch, his body bursting with golden light, and a phantom of a white elephant with golden tusks appeared behind him.

boom!
