Cultivating Immortals in Two Realms, I Possessed the Primordial Thunder Vine

Chapter 28 Foundation Building

The surging golden lightning all merged into Xu Changjun's body.

At this moment, in his sea of ​​consciousness, the enormous three-headed, six-armed thunder god, wielding six thunder divine weapons, stood solemnly and majestically, like a guardian deity who subdues demons and monsters, his entire body bursting with dazzling golden lightning.

Its radiant golden light, intertwined with the lightning of the Nine-Story Thunder Tower above, transformed the entire sea of ​​consciousness into a sphere shrouded in golden lightning.

Xu Changjun felt his mind become completely clear, and a large amount of spiritual energy flowed into his body. The surging energy flowed directly through his limbs and bones, and the surging magical power flowed freely throughout his body.

At this moment, the Demon-Slaying Thunder Sword also transformed into a golden bolt of lightning, merging into his flesh and blood. It was like a tiny, miniature version of golden lightning, hovering in his dantian, interacting with the magic power throughout his body, forming a strange resonance.

As this resonance occurred, the enormous three-headed, six-armed thunder god image in his mind began to gradually merge with his original divine soul.

What surprised him most was that the outline of the Thunder God statue flashed in his mind, and his divine soul essence naturally merged into it, occupying the core of the entire Thunder God statue and controlling it at will.

Just like this enormous three-headed, six-armed thunder god statue is an outer suit of armor, his divine soul is the central control point that controls the entire suit of armor.

As he merged into the statue of the Thunder God, the Foundation Establishment stage barrier, which he had not previously sensed, began to appear.

The surging magical power vibrated, and countless golden arcs of electricity seemed to have encountered some kind of barrier—an invisible gate that restricted the continued increase of spiritual power.

Xu Changjun's heart stirred. This was the shackle of the Foundation Establishment stage. As long as he broke through this invisible gate, he would immediately break through from the Qi Refining stage to the Foundation Establishment stage, and from then on, he would be considered a first-class ancestor-level figure in some small families.

The path to immortality begins with foundation building.

The path to immortality is long and requires constant exploration. Only those cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage can be considered to have truly entered the gate and begun to glimpse the path of immortality.

……

boom!

With the first surge of magical power, accompanied by the light of Gengjin divine thunder, it struck the gate, causing a violent ripple.

The surging magical power failed to shake the gate in front of it. The magical power that crashed back gathered again along the limbs and bones and flowed back into the dantian.

The surging magical power, flowing through the meridians of his body, received a new blessing, revitalized himself, and brought forth an even more surging force, once again heavily bombarding the invisible gate.

Xu Changjun's Dao foundation was extremely strong. The Sword Embryo Sacrifice Divine Technique was completed by devouring the demonic foundations of the three demonic cultivators, the Three Missing Daoist. Later, by chance, he absorbed the demonic embryo of Zhou Jinyu, making him extremely powerful.

In addition, the special properties of the Nine Heavens Thunder Vine make Xu Changjun's cultivation far stronger than that of a typical Foundation Establishment stage cultivator. Similarly, the difficulty of breaking through to the next level is also much greater.

Xu Changjun himself did not expect the shackles to be so tough. He tried to break through the invisible shackles several times but could not.

Once, twice...

With each impact, the bottleneck loosened slightly, leaving deep marks on the invisible gate, and cracks began to appear.

After an unknown amount of time, Xu Changjun's controlled magic power slammed into the gate again. With a soft "poof," a sound completely different from the previous one rang out in Xu Changjun's sea of ​​consciousness, as if forming a tiny void.

Through the void, Xu Changjun's soul pierced through and seemed to see directly what lay behind him—a vast and boundless sea of ​​primordial consciousness.

Boom!

Having broken through the first breach, the subsequent continuous impacts gradually caused the solid barrier to collapse, unable to withstand the onslaught of magical power, and the cracks grew larger and larger.

Finally, like a flood bursting its banks, a completely new aura slowly rose from Xu Changjun's body.

"It's a success!"

In an instant, Xu Changjun suddenly opened his eyes. Deep within his pupils, a faint golden and silver color appeared. His aura surged, and a terrifying power, like a storm, caused the entire room to rustle.

Immediately, an even greater divine soul power descended, enveloping the entire room and sealing it off completely.

In an instant, a powerful divine soul from the Foundation Establishment stage began to transform, with countless strands of divine soul crisscrossing and gushing down to probe the outside of the entire massive ship.

But at this moment, Xu Changjun's expression returned to calm. Suddenly, all his spiritual power contracted sharply, shrinking back into the room and merging into his consciousness. Everything around him fell into calm, as if nothing had happened.

Just as Xu Changjun's soul retracted into his body, a powerful soul force swept down from the top of the moonship, instantly covering the entire area around the ship, passing by inside and out, but without finding anything.

Only then did that powerful divine soul retreat back to the top layer of the ship.

The Foundation Establishment stage divine soul didn't detect anything different, and swept over it, seemingly full of questions.

"What's going on? Was that aura just an illusion?!"

Besides medicinal herb cultivation, the Moon Spring Clan's most profitable trading industry is the Moon Spring Clan's moon ships. Each of their large ships is equipped with a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Moon Spring Clan to oversee the operation and handle any emergencies.

When Xu Changjun broke through, he unconsciously revealed his aura, which attracted the attention of the Foundation Establishment elders of the Moon Spring Clan on the upper deck of the ship.

He sensed a terrifying aura brewing, but when he probed with his divine sense, he found nothing.

……

"Third Grandfather, what happened?"

Yue Linglong, who was sitting next to her, was startled awake and asked in surprise.

As the Foundation Establishment Elder overseeing the entire Moon Spring Ship, this was the first time she had ever seen her Third Grandfather show such an expression. She was incredibly intelligent, and although she couldn't sense anything unusual, she was certain that something incredible must have happened on the ship.

"Could I have sensed something wrong?!"

At this moment, the Foundation Establishment elder who was in charge of the Moon Spring warship shook his head and frowned slightly, also somewhat hesitant about what had just happened.

Just a moment ago, he suddenly felt a sudden and intense palpitation, a powerful aura that was extremely oppressive, but it vanished in an instant, as if it were just an illusion.

When asked by his juniors, Yue Yuanzhong responded calmly.

"Linglong, your aptitude is exceptional. You'll soon become a top-tier first-level spirit plant master. Don't slack off in your cultivation; don't let the family down!"
