Wizards in the world of cultivation

Chapter 10 Foundation Building
Elder Wu glanced at the identity jade tablet and immediately grasped the information about the twin clones: their aptitude for two spiritual roots, their cultivation of the sect's Golden Core technique "Water Element Scripture," and their spiritual power being more abundant than that of ordinary cultivators. Now, they were also cultivating a body-refining technique, so breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm should be a natural progression.

This is the final step in obtaining the Foundation Establishment Pill: observing whether your foundation is stable. If your foundation is unstable, using the Foundation Establishment Pill will inevitably result in a failed breakthrough, and the elders will have the right to refuse your exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

This kind of thing is very offensive, so the sect sent an elder in the late stage of the Golden Core realm to oversee the situation. This way, even the offspring of those Golden Core cultivators wouldn't dare to cause trouble.

They've already been given priority in the queue. If they dare to apply despite their weak foundation, they can only blame themselves for being rejected.

This is one of the reasons why the Void Heaven Sect has been able to prosper for tens of thousands of years; the continuous discovery of good disciples is the reason for the sect's solid foundation.

The twin clones stepped forward and took the jade bottle and a token with the character "乙" on it and the character "中" on the back. This indicated that it was a mid-level B-grade cultivation room, where the concentration of spiritual energy could reach the mid-level of the third rank.

The benefits of this cultivation room are provided free of charge, and the usage period is one year. Generally speaking, one or two months is enough for a breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment stage, and the remaining time is for newly promoted disciples to consolidate their cultivation.

This is one of the important resources sent directly by the Golden Core Elder, which also avoids the possibility of being taken advantage of or extorted.

In addition, every so often, the sect would have other Golden Core cultivators from the Elder Council audit the resources, including whether the Foundation Establishment Pills were distributed in accordance with regulations, to prevent the Golden Core cultivators distributing the resources from embezzling them.

The Void Heaven Sect has existed for tens of thousands of years. Although the sect's system is sound, there are also some corrupt aspects. Taking bribes and kickbacks are the most common things, and it is also common for them to pocket the resources of their disciples.

Even though the Void Heaven Sect sometimes ruthlessly executes a group of Foundation Establishment disciples, or even exiles several Golden Core cultivators to the frontier, it is difficult to prevent such things from happening.

Some personal relationships, some matters even involve Nascent Soul Ancestors, and these are all very difficult to handle.

The twin clones carefully placed the two items into their storage bags, then respectfully said, "Thank you, Elder."

The Level B, Medium-Grade Spirit Peak Cultivation Room Token was better than he had expected; in most cases, the sect would only provide ordinary Level B tokens.

It was probably because he saw that Su You had a solid foundation and was able to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm, which was also the reason for Su You's gratitude.

Elder Wu simply nodded and turned to leave.

He didn't treat the twin clones differently; it was just a normal distribution of resources.

After all, the Void Heaven Sect has so many disciples, and quite a few of them have two spiritual roots. There are also thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators. Unless one can break through to the late Foundation Establishment stage, they are just nobody.

After leaving Hidden Spirit Peak, Su You did not immediately go to the cultivation room, but instead went to the Transmission Pavilion to exchange for a copy of his insights on breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm.

This compilation is a collection of insights gathered by the Void Heaven Sect over tens of thousands of years from the experiences of numerous Qi Refining cultivators breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage. It contains systematic explanations and is of great help to its disciples in breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

He spent 500 merit points to exchange for one, which was enough to exchange for a normal Foundation Establishment cultivation technique, but now he could only exchange for a Foundation Establishment experience.

After exchanging the jade slip containing the insights, the twin clones flew on their swords to Lingji Peak next to the Central Mountain Range.

It was a place where spiritual veins converged, with spiritual veins of various levels intertwined. Under the guidance of the senior experts in the sect, cultivation chambers were built in this location.

The training rooms here are divided into three levels: A, B, and C, which represent fourth-order spiritual veins, third-order spiritual veins, and second-order spiritual veins, respectively.

There are no Grade D cultivation rooms here. After all, there are thousands of first-order spiritual veins in the entire Void Heaven Sect, which is enough for all disciples to cultivate. There would be no use in building Grade D cultivation rooms.

Even the Class C facilities only have cultivation rooms of medium to high quality; most of them are rented out to outer disciples at the Qi Refining level.

While still in mid-air, Su You could already see the scene of spiritual energy gathering in the distance.

Lingji Peak, the highest peak in the sect, stands three thousand feet tall. It can be said to gather the spiritual energy of the entire sect. Furthermore, a powerful senior has set up a grand formation to concentrate spiritual energy, making it an extraordinary place.

I've heard that the spiritual energy gathered in the top-tier cultivation room at the summit of Lingji Peak has surpassed the original level of the spiritual vein.

Su You could only observe such a high-level cultivation room from afar. Only those who had made great contributions to the sect or were Golden Core cultivators were qualified to enter and cultivate inside.

However, a mid-level third-tier cultivation room was sufficient for him. Su You was only breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm, not the Golden Core realm. For most cultivators, having a decent second-tier spiritual vein for their breakthrough was already considered quite good.

When they arrived at Lingji Peak, Su You descended to the foot of the mountain.

After showing his token to the disciple on duty, he entered directly.

Upon entering Lingji Peak, one can see towering peaks reaching into the clouds. At the foot of the mountain, small black dots surround the peaks, below which are rows of second-tier cultivation rooms.

Su You climbed the steps, and the spiritual energy became more concentrated the higher one went on Lingji Peak.

The intermediate-level Class B training room was located roughly on the upper part of the mountainside. Since flying was not allowed within Lingji Peak, Su You used a lightness technique to nimbly traverse the steps.

He quickly found the location of the intermediate-level Class B cultivation rooms. There weren't many, only about a hundred.

The cultivation room here is made entirely of black rock crystal, which not only has a better effect on gathering spiritual energy, but also has the defensive power to withstand the attack of a Foundation Establishment cultivator for half a day. The cultivation room is also equipped with soundproofing and restrictions to block divine sense, so as to prevent being disturbed by other cultivators.

Having found the cultivation room corresponding to his token, Su You took out the cultivation room token from his storage bag and poured spiritual power into it. Soon, the door of the cultivation room opened directly.

Upon entering the cultivation room, Su You felt enveloped by a dense spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy of a third-tier medium-level spiritual vein is extraordinary; it is at least ten times more concentrated than the cave dwelling where the twin clones reside.

If one could cultivate in such an environment, one's cultivation level would likely advance by leaps and bounds.

However, the cave dwellings within the third-tier spiritual veins are a place that all Foundation Establishment disciples within the sect vie for.

Not only do you need good deeds and connections, you also need sufficient strength.

We can only make plans after he breaks through to the next level.

After the door to the cultivation room was completely closed, Su You did not rush to break through, but instead looked at the jade slip and carefully studied the insights on it.

Although he was almost certain that Su You's twin clones would break through to the Foundation Establishment realm, he wouldn't let go of any opportunity to increase the success rate.

After all, there is only one Foundation Establishment Pill. If it fails, you will have to find a way to buy it in the Void Heaven Immortal City, which will cost twice as much as in the sect.

In just a short while, Su You's eyes shone with excitement. Such detailed insights into Foundation Establishment clearly explained every step of the breakthrough.

As expected of the Void Heaven Sect's accumulated knowledge over ten thousand years, it provides detailed answers and solutions to the unexpected events that may be encountered when attempting to break through each level, as well as notes on the best steps and timing for attempting to break through each level.

Such detailed insights into Foundation Establishment can increase the success rate by 10% even for those without Foundation Establishment Pills, simply by reading and comprehending them.

After spending three days thoroughly comprehending the contents of the Foundation Establishment Insights, the twin clones began their breakthrough.

First, he began to practice the "Water Profound Scripture," which was his main cultivation technique. It was quite powerful, and the spiritual energy he cultivated was more abundant than that of ordinary cultivation techniques.

After all, it was a Golden Core level cultivation technique. Although he only obtained the cultivation method for the Qi Refining realm, it did not hinder its effectiveness.

As the Water Mystic Scripture was activated, surging spiritual energy flowed rapidly within the body.

After completing one cycle, the twin clones began meditating on the World Tree again, restoring their spiritual power to its peak.

"It's time!" The twin clones no longer hesitated and quickly began to circulate their energy.

Driven by their own spiritual consciousness, the spiritual energy within their bodies converged towards their dantian.

This alone is far from enough to allow spiritual energy to undergo a transformation.

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, the spiritual awareness meticulously manipulated the spiritual power within his body, causing it to spin rapidly.

The spiritual energy within the entire dantian began to transform into a vortex, spinning continuously.

Next, all you need to do is maintain the spiritual energy vortex until all the spiritual energy in your body liquefies and transforms into mana. Then you'll have passed this spiritual energy hurdle.

This places high demands on one's spiritual awareness, requiring it to be able to support the completion of all this. Additionally, it requires abundant spiritual power to support the transformation of magical power.

After persisting for half a day, the twin clones felt their spiritual energy was somewhat depleted. This was normal, as the twin clones had not been practicing the World Tree Meditation Technique for very long, and their spiritual power was far inferior to that of the main body.

If the main body were to control it, it would probably be effortless to maintain the conversion of spiritual energy into magical power.

Now, the Foundation Establishment Pill comes in handy.

The twin clone took out a round, smooth, and fragrant snow-white pill from the jade bottle. Just one whiff of it made his depleted spiritual consciousness feel much better.

The function of the Foundation Building Pill is to stabilize the essence, energy, and spirit, providing the body with a continuous source of power. In addition, it can accelerate the transformation of magical power, stabilize the meridians, and restore the body and spirit.
