My equipment is designed for cultivation; I started by slaughtering my way through a small world.

Feeling the throbbing within his body, Gu Qing couldn't help but recall the information about the Foundation Establishment Realm from the Immortal Kingdom. Foundation Establishment is the reshaping of the Dao Foundation. Depending on the cultivator's bloodline, cultivation methods, and the profound mysteries of the attributes they comprehend, a Dao Foundation in different directions will be nurtured.

Even though they are all Foundation Establishment cultivators, they will eventually form different cultivation systems.

Some people excel at strong offensive breakthroughs, some at defense, and some at developing martial arts techniques and secret arts, etc.

On the other hand, Gu Qing herself...

His fundamental cultivation technique is the [Evolutionary Immortal Technique]. Based on this, he has created his own immortal martial arts techniques and bloodline abilities developed from the Myriad Laws Bloodline.

It contains the profound fire and earth techniques cultivated through the true method of the [Fierce Rock Prison Technique], the six wood-attribute sword techniques cultivated through the [Azure Emperor Sword Manual], and the profound mysteries of blooming and withering flowers gleaned from feedback from the Bitter Bamboo, the sword realm of the natal spiritual root.

In addition to the abilities mentioned above, Gu Qing comprehended two top-tier fire control techniques, the [Nine Transformations of Heavenly Fire] and the [Separation Character Fire Condensation Pill Technique], raising the power of his Karmic Fire to the second rank, tenth level.

Both of these fire-attribute techniques have extremely high potential.

The complete [Nine Transformations of Heavenly Fire] technique, when cultivated to the ninth level, combines the nine fires into one, its power comparable to immortal fire.

The [Li Zi Condensed Fire Elixir Technique] can maximize the power of a single type of spiritual fire.

"After reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm, the body undergoes a transformation, and the spiritual energy circulation within the body becomes more stable. It requires the soul and body as the foundation, and the Dao techniques as the seed, to construct and solidify the Dao foundation."

"Each level of Dao foundation can strengthen Dao techniques or enhance the value of the divine soul."

As spiritual energy continuously flowed into Gu Qing's body, the potential value hidden within him gradually solidified into a foundation for the Great Dao suitable for Gu Qing.

As spiritual energy continued to flow in, a phantom image resembling a cauldron gradually appeared around Gu Qing. Beasts roared and demons howled on the cauldron. As the cauldron solidified, a purple halo appeared around Gu Qing.

The process of awakening the foundation of the Tao is very simple.

It means that a cultivator's potential is deeply awakened, and various Dao techniques, bloodlines, and divine soul talents are integrated and evolved into a foundation that carries the Great Dao.

When the strange furnace was fully formed, Gu Qing suddenly had a sudden realization.

The first level of Dao Foundation Divine Power is called the Yin-Yang Creation Cauldron.

According to the standards of the Immortal Kingdom, this is a Profound-grade Dao Foundation, and it currently has two supernatural effects.

First of all.

This supernatural ability originates from Gu Qing's comprehension of the Yin-Yang secrets and the profound mysteries of fire attributes. The Yin-Yang Creation Cauldron integrates the effects of various fire-attribute Daoist techniques, and Gu Qing can refine a natal spiritual fire for each level he advances in his cultivation realm.

Furthermore, it can evolve yin and yang transformations, using secondary spiritual fire to enhance the power of the natal spiritual fire.

Second.

The Yin-Yang Creation Cauldron's ability is based on the Hundred Beasts' Karmic Fire and the demonic bloodline devoured by the Myriad Laws Bloodline. The manifested cauldron can refine the original power of demons and monsters to strengthen Gu Qing's bloodline power and develop and perfect his bloodline.

The more natal spirit fire there is in the Yin-Yang Creation Cauldron, the more types of essence the cauldron can refine and extract.

This is the basic ability of the Yin-Yang Creation Cauldron.

"The Immortal Kingdom divides the Dao Foundation into five levels: Heaven, Earth, Black, Yellow, and Unranked."

"The aura of a Dao Foundation condensed from an unranked Dao Foundation is white, that of a Yellow-rank Dao Foundation is yellow, that of a Profound-rank Dao Foundation is purple, that of an Earth-rank Dao Foundation is black, and that of a legendary Heaven-rank Dao Foundation is red."

"The profound-grade Dao foundation amplifies the Dao techniques, increasing the power of fire-attribute spells by 30% out of thin air, and drawing in the spiritual energy within a three-mile radius."

"With the power of the Hundred Beasts Fire spell at the second rank and tenth level, a 30% increase on top of that might be enough to barely contend against ordinary spells at the Golden Core stage."

"In fact, this divine foundation is also a combat skill, especially effective against three types of enemies: monsters, souls, and demons."

"The more spiritual fire the Yin-Yang Creation Cauldron refines, the more comprehensive its effects will be."

The spiritual energy gathered between heaven and earth dissipated.

Gu Qing stood up, stretched, and sighed softly, "After undergoing three trials at the Foundation Establishment stage, I have finally entered the Foundation Establishment realm."

"Awesome!"

As Gu Qing broke through his cultivation level, several messages also appeared on his equipment panel.

[You have entered the Foundation Establishment Realm, Grade Two of the Immortal Path.]

[Equipment slots increased by 1]

Current equipment slots: 3.

Available equipment slots: 2.

[Equipment Effect: Enhances or weakens your personal attributes based on the item's characteristics.]

[Equipment method: Physical contact.]

……

The equipment panel blurred for a moment, and then a new slot split into the equipment slots.

"The more cheat codes you use, the more enjoyable it becomes to cultivate immortality."

"The two equipment slots are becoming increasingly insufficient, as the Myriad Laws Bloodline is constantly occupying the first slot. We need to reserve one slot for flexible switching to other items."

"There aren't enough grid slots, so the equipment effect of Elder Tianhuo's Zhenxu Ancient Furnace wasn't fully analyzed."

"Now, at least I don't have to switch equipment back and forth."

With a thought, he directly equipped the Heavenly Fire Elder's Zhenxu Ancient Furnace to the second slot.

In the third slot, equip a bottle of pills that increase spiritual power cultivation, and push your spiritual power cultivation to the Foundation Establishment limit as quickly as possible.

It must be said that the path of mercenaries is a hellish road for many people in the Immortal Kingdom.

However, for Gu Qing, adventuring and collecting resources in other dimensions actually provided him with more opportunities.

In particular, the various resources in the Immortal Kingdom are either clearly priced or are poison disguised as honey, with traps everywhere.

In the immortal realm, not a single wisp of spiritual energy can be absorbed for free.

After straightening her clothes, Gu Qing stepped out of the room again. As soon as she came outside, she saw Yang Xi pacing back and forth, seemingly unaware that Gu Qing had come out.

She seems to have something urgent to do.

Gu Qing called out to her, "Yang Xi, what are you wandering around for?"

"Master!!"

Seeing Gu Qing standing smiling in front of her, Yang Xi's anxious brows relaxed slightly.

Gu Qing nodded and said with a smile, "Yang Xi, you seem very anxious. Has something big happened?"

Yang Xi nodded and said, "Master, you guessed right. Something big has indeed happened. In the few days you were in seclusion, the Liang Family Chamber of Commerce, one of the ten major merchant guilds that had always traded with the Azure Emperor Sword Sect, was wiped out overnight by the Tiger Fiend Sect."

"Tiger Fiend Sect?"

"The Liang Family Chamber of Commerce?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing frowned slightly.

He still had a deep impression of the Liang family's business association. When they came to the Azure Emperor Sword Sect to participate in the Pill Gathering, they had a considerable conflict with the Liang family.

The Liang family was quite flexible, contributing 10,000 spirit stones of cultivation resources to Gu Qing, thus resolving the conflict.

Given the Liang family patriarch's flexible and adaptable nature, this indicates that he is spineless.

If something can be resolved with spirit stones, people will probably spend money to avoid trouble.

It's even possible that he might secretly join the Tiger Fiend Sect and work for them.

Why was the Liang family wiped out by the Tiger Fiend Sect?

Have any detailed updates surfaced recently?

"Why has the Tiger Fiend Sect suddenly become so domineering in its actions?"

Gu Qing thought for a moment, then looked at Yang Xi and asked.

Yang Xi took out a piece of intelligence that his father had sent from the Yang family and said, "Master, according to the information my father sent, after the Tiger Fiend Sect obtained the spirit stone mine in Golden Rooster Ridge, they began to recruit a large number of disciples."

"They used a lot of resources to train low-level disciples so that they could conquer cities and seize territories."

"It is said that the Tiger Fiend Sect has not stopped. They are mobilizing cultivators to prepare to take action against another merchant guild."

"Master."

"The Tiger Fiend Sect has gone mad. I'm afraid if they continue down this path, they'll target the Yang family."

After Yang Xi finished speaking, her eyes were full of worry.

Currently, after acquiring the spirit stone resources of Golden Rooster Ridge, the Tiger Fiend Sect has begun to mass-produce troops and train low-level disciples to further eliminate the peripheral forces of the Azure Emperor Sword Sect.

Although the Tiger Fiend Sect lost a Golden Core Realm elder, the enemy did not stop.

Su Changge suffered a severe blow.

They choose to take advantage of your weakness and kill you.

"The tree may wish to remain still, but the wind will not cease."

He looked up at the outside of the Azure Emperor Sword Sect, and after a moment, he looked at Yang Xi and said, "We are currently in a critical period, and the strength of the Azure Emperor Sword Sect is not enough to reach too far."

"The Yang family is too far from the Azure Emperor Sword Sect. I suggest that the Yang family shrink its sphere of influence and hand over the business to its subordinates."

"It would be best if the core members of the Yang family's direct lineage came to the territory under the jurisdiction of the Azure Emperor Sword Sect."

"If you save people but lose land, you can save both people and land. If you save land but lose people, you can lose both people and land."

"Talent is fundamental."

"I suggest you inform Fellow Daoist Yang Xiuyuan as soon as possible..."

After listening, Yang Xi nodded seriously and said, "Master, I understand. I will go and inform my father and the others right away."

Go!

Watching Yang Xi's departing figure, Gu Qing had a sudden thought. He stepped on his flying sword, raised his field of vision, and looked at the entire Azure Emperor Sword Sect.

Disciples within the sect came and went in a hurry, and many places showed signs of spiritual energy gathering. Many disciples were in seclusion, trying to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm and improve their strength to cope with the upcoming changes.

Seeing this scene, Gu Qing sighed, "The struggles in the cultivation world are even more brutal than those in the mortal world. If the Azure Emperor Sword Sect is defeated, everyone in the sect will probably become a talent."

"Even death may become a luxury."

Looking at the sect disciples preparing for battle, Gu Qing thought to himself, "I have just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, and my strength is far from reaching its limit."

"No matter how much trouble the Tiger Fiend Sect stirs up outside."

"First, I need to transform the resources I have that can quickly enhance my strength into solid power."

With the crisis looming, Gu Qing had no time to waste. He transformed his sword into a beam of light and landed in the bamboo forest behind Cuiyun Peak.

"I possess various secret techniques."

There are roughly three ways to rapidly increase one's strength.

"If one can master the Fierce Rock Prison Technique from the Immortal Wood Group and achieve a profound fusion of two attributes, one's strength will undoubtedly increase significantly."
