Immortal Rebel: The Obstacles!

Li Mozhi rested his chin on his hand, staring thoughtfully at the two storage bags in front of him.

He had already distributed the stakes left by Park Nam-ja, with one bag specifically reserved for Wang Lin. The bag contained a wealth of cultivation resources: 80 Qi-cultivating pills, 4 Foundation-building pills, and 1 Brightness-locking pill.

Regarding magical artifacts, the quality of the artifacts sent by Park Nam-ja varied greatly. Li Mozhi managed to put together a set of artifacts for the Qi Condensation stage and a set for the Foundation Establishment stage, effectively arming Wang Lin to the teeth.

The rest were naturally left to the Hengyue Sect. With Li Mozhi's current cultivation level, these magical treasures and pills were completely useless to him.

I have been cultivating at the Hengyue Sect all along, and recently, Liu Wenju has also fulfilled the tasks assigned to me conscientiously. It is only right that I leave the remaining cultivation resources to the Hengyue Sect.

Thinking of this, Li Mozhi scanned the area with his divine sense and found that Liu Wenju was not in seclusion. After transmitting his voice to him, he quietly waited for Liu Wenju's arrival outside the great formation on the back mountain.

About half an incense stick's time later, Liu Wenju hurriedly arrived at the back mountain.

"Our ancestor, what are your orders?" Liu Wenju bowed and said respectfully.

Li Mozhi smiled calmly, tossed the two storage bags to Liu Wenju, and earnestly instructed him.

"The slightly smaller one on the left is Wang Lin's reward for winning the exchange conference. However, he hasn't shown up recently, so he must have gone into seclusion. You are responsible for delivering it to Wang Lin."

"The larger one on the right is the cultivation resource I left for the Hengyue Sect. You and that old woman each keep two Locking Brightness Pills to help you with your cultivation."

Liu Wenju was taken aback, and hurriedly said in a panic, "Our lifespans are short, and there is no possibility of advancing even if we take the Lock Brightness Pill. Please, Ancestor, leave the pill for the future prodigies of Hengyue Sect."

"Stop talking nonsense! Just put it away as I told you to!"

Liu Wenju could only nod in agreement, respectfully accepting the two storage bags without checking them, and carefully placing them into his pocket.

"Does the Ancestor have anything else? If not, this junior will take my leave and hand the storage bag over to Wang Lin."

"You, the old woman, Huanglong, Daoxu, and that red-faced old man should choose from this bag of cultivation resources first. You can then distribute the rest to others. Also, leave two Foundation Establishment Pills for Chen Yu, to be given to him when he needs them."

"As for how to distribute them among your disciples, I'm sure you already know, so I don't need to explain it to you," Li Mozhi said calmly, without going into further explanation of why the distribution should be done this way.

Liu Wenju's heart skipped a beat, a strange light flashing in his eyes. He said solemnly, "Thank you for your guidance, Ancestor! This junior will take his leave now!"

Without lingering, he thanked them and left the back mountain without looking back.

……

Wang Lin is still living in the same storage room as before. This room is a room that every inner disciple will receive. As long as their name is on the sect's register, it will not be given to others. So, over the years, this room still belongs to Wang Lin.

He did not want to be disturbed, and when Huanglong Zhenren offered him a better place to cultivate, he politely declined and stayed in the house instead.

"Hiss~ The Ancestor gave too much!" Wang Lin looked at the storage bag in his hand, speechless with astonishment.

Just now, Liu Wenju handed him the storage bag, gave him some earnest instructions, and left his residence without looking back, leaving Wang Lin in shock.

Even if Wang Lin could freely choose any cultivation resources he won, he never intended to choose so many!

Leaving aside the magic treasures for the time being, he had a full 80 Qi-Nourishing Pills for cultivation, 4 Foundation-Building Pills, and even 1 Locking-Brightness Pill, which could only be taken by those in the Core Formation stage. It really solved his urgent problem.

His cultivation has now reached the fourteenth level of Qi Condensation. With the help of the Qi Nourishing Pill, he will be able to reach the fifteenth level of Qi Condensation in a few days. With the help of the Foundation Establishment Pill, advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage will no longer be just a pipe dream.

Without further hesitation, Wang Lin calmed his mind, took out the Qi-Nourishing Pill from his storage bag, examined it for a moment, and then swallowed it directly.

Instantly, the immense spiritual energy within the pill flowed through his limbs like a warm current, slowly gathering in his dantian. Wang Lin's expression hardened, and he quickly activated his magic technique to absorb this vast spiritual energy.

……

Time flies, and seven days have passed in the blink of an eye.

During these seven days, Wang Lin went into seclusion and rarely appeared in the public eye. Discussions about him within the Hengyue Sect gradually decreased, and the disciples and elders were all busy with their own affairs.

Sun Dazhu was living in agony, each day filled with dread, fearing that Wang Lin would come to punish him. As time passed, his fear of Wang Lin grew stronger, and finally, he made a snap decision and left the Hengyue Sect alone on a dark and stormy night.

Li Mozhi did not stop him, but simply sat cross-legged within the formation. As long as Wang Lin did not leave the Hengyue Sect, he would quietly wait for time to pass in order to obtain a more generous reward.

Twenty days passed in the blink of an eye. Wang Lin sat cross-legged in his room, and at this moment, his cultivation level had reached the perfect fifteenth level of Qi Condensation!

"Situ, can these four Foundation Establishment Pills help me advance to the Foundation Establishment stage?" Wang Lin asked Situ Nan, who was inside the Heavenly Reversal Pearl, looking at the four Foundation Establishment Pills that were emitting a strange medicinal fragrance.

"It's a bit of a stretch. Your talent is really too poor. Even if you absorb my Nascent Soul essence to help improve your aptitude, whether you can advance still depends on luck," Situ Nan said calmly.

"Four pills are still barely enough?" Wang Lin said with a bitter expression. Ordinary people don't even have a single Foundation Establishment Pill to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage. They can only find places with abundant spiritual energy to establish their foundation. He has four pills, but he still has to rely on luck.

"Are there any other ways to improve the success rate of Foundation Establishment?" Wang Lin asked with a wry smile.

"Yes! And this method is particularly simple. It only requires a Nascent Soul cultivator to use their own cultivation to help the disciple establish their foundation. I am no longer physically present and cannot help you, but the Hengyue Sect does have a readily available Nascent Soul cultivator. You can ask Li Mozhi to help you establish your foundation."

"This method has an extremely high success rate, with no risk of failure, and it can save you four Foundation Establishment Pills. At worst, you'll have to use up the promise of a Nascent Soul cultivator," Situ Nan said confidently.

"Situ, I will still attempt to establish my foundation on my own. Perhaps the Ancestor's promise will come in handy in the future," Wang Lin said, his eyes resolute, each word deliberate.

Wang Lin put the Foundation Establishment Pill in his mouth, and it melted instantly upon entering his mouth, transforming into bursts of spiritual energy that began to swirl within his body.

Under his control, the spiritual energy did not transfer to his physical body, but instead condensed entirely in his abdomen, forming a vortex.

As the last bit of spiritual energy generated by the Foundation Establishment Pill was absorbed by the vortex, the vortex suddenly grew larger and surged upwards wildly!

"Wang Lin, hurry, swallow all three Foundation Establishment Pills. This vortex needs to run through your entire body for you to have successfully established your foundation!" Situ Nan shouted anxiously.

If one has sufficient spiritual talent, then the vortex can naturally circulate throughout the body.

However, if one lacks natural talent, it is as if there are invisible barriers blocking the way, making it extremely difficult for the vortex to travel throughout the body!

Wang Lin's expression hardened, and he swallowed all three Foundation Establishment Pills!

Instantly, an unimaginable surge of spiritual power erupted within his body!

The vortex inside his body spun faster and faster, immediately spreading throughout his entire body.

However, Wang Lin lacked natural talent. Although the spiritual power of the three Foundation Establishment Pills continued to break through the barriers, it eventually stopped. Instead of continuing to spread, it gradually began to shrink back.

Situ Nan sighed inwardly, looked at his meager Nascent Soul essence, cursed a few times, and roared angrily.

"Wang Lin, I'm here to help you!"
