Courtyard House: The Cultivation System Takes Me Flying

As night faded and dawn broke, mist rose from the Spirit Lake of the Eternal Immortal Abode, transforming into wisps of colorful spiritual energy that twined among the verdant bamboo. Nourished by this spiritual energy, the entire grotto-heaven became even more vibrant, tranquil, and peaceful.

After several days of cultivation and nourishment from the spiritual rice, everyone in the Immortal Mansion has steadily improved their cultivation. He Yuzhu has already reached the bottleneck of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong are about to break through to the peak of Qi Refining, Qin Huairu's water attribute cultivation technique is becoming more and more proficient, and the four members of the Jia family are also steadily improving through diligent cultivation. The most surprising thing is the three children, Banggeng, Xiaodang, and Huaihua.

The three children were born with pure and innocent minds, free from worldly distractions. They also benefited from the cultivation buff of the Eternal Immortal Mansion. They ate eighth-grade spiritual rice and fruits and drank spiritual spring water every day. Their cultivation at the peak of the Qi Induction Realm had long been stabilized to the extreme. Their spiritual veins had been nurtured and expanded several times by Qin Lindong. The opportunity to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm had quietly arrived.

On this day, Qin Huairu, as usual, sat in meditation and breathing exercises by the Linghu Lake with her three children.

Banggeng sat cross-legged at the front, his eyes closed, surrounded by spiritual energy. Despite his young age, he was calm and composed, his Qi-inducing realm spiritual energy surging within him like a river, constantly challenging the Foundation Establishment bottleneck. He was resolute and far more mature than other children his age, diligently cultivating every day without ever slacking off, only wanting to become stronger as soon as possible to protect the Immortal Abode, the Immortal Lord, and his family.

Xiao Dang and Huaihua sat on either side, surrounded by spiritual energy, their auras steady, silently accumulating power, waiting for the opportunity to break through.

The white jade rhinoceros lay in front of the three children, its snow-white body radiating a faint, gentle spiritual energy, forming a protective barrier that isolated them from all interference, allowing the three children to cultivate in peace.

Qin Lindong stood under the spirit bamboo not far away, watching quietly. His spiritual sense gently enveloped the three children, ready to help them at any time to ensure that their breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment stage was foolproof.

Foundation Building is the first important hurdle on the path of cultivation. It involves drawing Qi into the body and establishing a foundation for one's Dao, marking the true beginning of cultivation. For children, the earlier they break through this barrier, the more stable their Dao foundation will be, and the smoother their future cultivation path will be.

Time passed slowly, and the spiritual energy by the lake became increasingly dense. The spiritual energy in the air surged wildly into Bang Geng's body like flowing water.

Bang Geng frowned slightly, his spiritual energy surging with all its might to break through the bottleneck of Foundation Establishment. The originally invisible bottleneck gradually cracked under the onslaught of massive spiritual energy. He gritted his teeth, relying on his unwavering willpower to guard his mind and prevent the spiritual energy from going berserk.

Qin Huairu stood by, feeling both nervous and expectant, but dared not make a sound to disturb him. She could only silently circulate her water-attribute cultivation technique, transmitting gentle water elemental power to her son to help him stabilize his mind.

"Um……"

With a soft groan, the bottleneck within his body shattered!

A massive amount of spiritual energy instantly surged into the dantian, condensing into a small vortex of spiritual energy within it. The unique spiritual energy fluctuations characteristic of the Foundation Establishment stage slowly dissipated, gentle yet firm.

Early stage of Foundation Building!

The stick thief has successfully broken through!

He slowly opened his eyes, a flash of light in them. His small body exuded the aura of a Foundation Establishment cultivator. His originally clear eyes became even brighter, and his intelligence and physical body were enhanced in all aspects. He looked more and more calm and capable.

"Brother, you've broken through!" Xiao Dang and Huaihua exclaimed in surprise, their voices clear and melodious.

A relieved smile appeared on Qin Huairu's face, her eyes slightly reddening. Her son's successful foundation building was the happiest thing for her right now.

Bang Geng stood up, quickly ran to Qin Lindong, bowed deeply, and said in a childish but respectful tone, "Thank you for your protection, Immortal Lord. Bang Geng has successfully broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage!"

He knew in his heart that his breakthrough was entirely due to the protection of the Immortal Lord and the nourishment of the Immortal Mansion. Otherwise, with his mortal body, it would have been impossible for him to reach the Foundation Establishment stage at such a young age.

Qin Lindong raised his hand, his fingertips lightly brushing the top of the staff. A warm, golden spiritual energy flowed into his body, stabilizing his newly established Foundation Establishment, widening his meridians, and nourishing his spiritual veins. He said softly, "A solid foundation and a resilient mind are essential. Continue to cultivate with a calm mind and never become arrogant."

"I will remember the Immortal's teachings!" Bang Geng nodded emphatically, his expression serious.

[Ding! Disciple Bang Geng has successfully broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, greatly enhancing the cultivation atmosphere of the Immortal Abode and triggering a reward.]

[The probability of all disciples breaking through bottlenecks has increased by 30%, and inner demons have been completely isolated.]

[Xiao Dang and Huaihua's cultivation speed doubles, and the opportunity to establish their foundation arrives ahead of schedule]

[The concentration of spiritual energy in the grotto has increased by 10%, accelerating the growth rate of spiritual plants.]

[Host reward: The cultivation level of the fourth stage of Golden Core has been stabilized to the late stage, and the Undying Battle Body has made a slight breakthrough.]

As the system notification sounded, Bang Geng felt his Foundation Establishment cultivation becoming more and more stable, and his spiritual energy circulation becoming smoother; Xiao Dang and Huai Hua's spiritual energy surged, and the signs of breaking through to Foundation Establishment became more and more obvious; Qin Huairu, He Yuzhu and others also felt their bottlenecks loosening, and their cultivation path becoming smoother.

The spiritual energy within the cave was becoming increasingly abundant, and the spiritual fields, bamboo, and fruits were growing at a visible rate, full of vitality.

He Yuzhu arrived immediately. Looking at Bang Geng, who had successfully established his foundation, a simple and honest smile appeared on his face: "Good lad! You've already established your foundation at such a young age, much stronger than I was back then! Cultivate diligently in the future and protect the Immortal Abode!"

"Don't worry, Uncle He, I definitely will!" Banggeng replied earnestly.

Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong also put down their work and rushed over to offer their congratulations: "Congratulations to young friend Banggeng on successfully establishing your foundation! To have such cultivation at such a young age, you are sure to have a bright future!"

The four members of the Jia family also stepped forward and bowed to offer their congratulations. Their expressions were respectful, and their hearts were full of envy, but not a trace of jealousy. They felt that the celestial abode was full of blessings.

The entire Eternal Immortal Abode was filled with a joyous and peaceful atmosphere because of Bang Geng's breakthrough, even more lively than during the harvest season of the Spirit Valley.

Looking at the joyful expressions of everyone, Qin Lindong felt a sense of peace. He never pursued his disciples' fame and renown; he only wished for them to cultivate peacefully and live stable lives. Now that Banggeng had successfully established his foundation, it was the best thing for the Immortal Mansion.

"Today is a joyous occasion. Qin Huairu, prepare plenty of spiritual fruits and rice for the whole courtyard to celebrate," Qin Lindong said calmly.

"Yes, Immortal Master!" Qin Huairu quickly replied, her face full of smiles, and led Xiao Dang and Huaihua to the Spirit Fruit Garden to pick the freshest spirit fruits.

Before long, a sumptuous feast of immortal food was prepared. The spirit rice was crystal clear, the spirit fruits were vibrant, and the spirit spring water was sweet. Everyone in the courtyard sat together to celebrate Bang Geng's foundation-building achievement.

There were no fine wines and delicacies, no noisy celebrations or music, only the company of family and sincere blessings—simple yet warm, plain yet genuine.

Banggeng sat in the banquet hall, receiving everyone's blessings. His little face was full of seriousness, and he secretly vowed to cultivate diligently, become stronger as soon as possible, and protect the Immortal Lord and this peaceful grotto.

After the meal, everyone returned to their practice. The festive atmosphere did not dissipate; instead, it became a driving force for their practice, further enhancing their efficiency.

Bang Geng sat cross-legged by the lake, calmly consolidating his Foundation Establishment cultivation. With the spiritual energy support of Qin Lindong and the buff from the Immortal Abode, his early Foundation Establishment cultivation stabilized at an extremely fast speed, showing faint signs of climbing towards the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

Xiao Dang and Huaihua sat beside their brother, surrounded by spiritual energy. The opportunity to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage was drawing ever closer. The two children were focused, silently accumulating power, hoping to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage as soon as possible, just like their brother.

Qin Huairu stayed by the three children's side, circulating her water-attribute cultivation technique. Gentle spiritual energy enveloped them, assisting their cultivation. Her early Foundation Establishment cultivation became increasingly stable, and her temperament grew more ethereal and gentle, like a fairy from the water.

He Yuzhu sat in meditation at the entrance of the cave. His fiery spiritual energy was as intense as fire. With the joy of celebration and the buff, he was about to break through the bottleneck of the mid-stage Foundation Establishment. His body was surrounded by fiery spiritual light, and his aura was becoming stronger and stronger.

Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong sat by the spirit field, practicing their breathing exercises. Their cultivation levels, both at the ninth level of Qi Refining, were soaring, and they were only one step away from Foundation Establishment. The two old men had rosy complexions and their energy and spirit were at their peak.

The four members of the Jia family continued to work diligently, but also seized their spare time to cultivate their spiritual power, steadily improving their cultivation level without daring to slack off in the slightest.

The white jade spirit lay beside the three children, its eyes closed obediently, radiating a faint spiritual aura, protecting them and becoming the warmest scene in the grotto.

Qin Lindong stood with his hands behind his back on the stone platform in the center of the cave, his spiritual sense enveloping the entire cave, feeling the cultivation and joy of everyone, and his heart was at peace.

The Foundation Establishment of the Immortal Abode is the first major event after the Immortal Abode enters the world of cultivation, marking that the Immortal Abode disciples have officially gained a foothold in the world of cultivation and have a promising future.

Thousands of miles away in Qinglan Prefecture, the fighting and strife continued unabated. Qinglan Sect disciples risked their lives to cultivate for the sect's resources, demonic beasts in Luoxia Ridge tore each other apart for territory, and rogue cultivators in Qingxi Town argued endlessly over spiritual herbs and stones. Everywhere was filled with restlessness and ferocity.

The Eternal Immortal Abode remains a secluded paradise, free from war and strife, where only cultivation, companionship, and tranquility reside.

As the sun sets, the evening glow is magnificent, illuminating the Eternal Immortal Abode with golden splendor. The Spirit Lake shimmers with the glow of the sunset, the spirit bamboo sways in the wind, the spirit fruits exude a delicate fragrance, and the sounds of people cultivating are calm and melodious, filling the air with a peaceful atmosphere.

Qin Lindong sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and began to cultivate. His cultivation level at the late stage of the fourth level of the Golden Core realm steadily improved under the influence of massive spiritual energy. His indestructible battle body became increasingly powerful, his physical body was impervious to all magic, and his spiritual consciousness was connected to heaven and earth.

With the foundation laid, joy is added to the celestial abode, the whole courtyard rejoices, and the grotto-heaven is at peace.

This day was filled with joy, peace, and tranquility.

The mortal world is far behind, the path to immortality lies ahead, the immortal abode is eternal, and the original intention remains unchanged.

Protect the disciples of this prefecture, guard this pure land, cultivate the path to immortality, and live a peaceful life.

Untouched by worldly strife, unburdened by worldly dust, living peacefully and eternally.
