Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

For other cultivators attempting to reach the Foundation Establishment, this step could be incredibly challenging.

The spirit power within their bodies is actually quite vast for a cultivator at the Qi Refining great perfection.

Normally, controlling the spirit power within the body to cycle and absorb spirit Qi to transform it into their own spirit power is entirely different from the experience of gathering all their available spirit power to the Elixir Field.

The former just requires urging the spirit power to move along the meridians and keep cycling.

While the latter needs to manipulate every strand of spirit power that can be controlled in the body and bring them all into the Elixir Field. The workload between these two is utterly dissimilar.

One follows the natural course.

The other needs absolute precision.

However, thanks to having the Qi Sinking into Elixir Field Skill that increases the success rate of reaching the Foundation Establishment, He Song finds this step relatively easy.

After an initial attempt, He Song thought it was too slow to gather the spirit power into the Elixir Field bit by bit.

Moreover, it was extremely exhausting for his mind, which was not conducive to the subsequent spirit power compression, so He Song decisively used the Qi Sinking into Elixir Field Skill.

With a single thought.

The Qi Sinking into Elixir Field Skill was activated.

In an instant, He Song felt the spirit power within his body swarm towards his Elixir Field.

Regardless whether it was the spirit power circulating within his meridians or the spirit power contained within his limbs and bones.

At this moment.

Everything seemed to be summoned, swarming into He Song’s Elixir Field.

Within just a short time, He Song felt that all the spirit power in his body had entered his Elixir Field.

At the same time.

He Song also felt his body quickly weakening.

Although a cultivator’s body appears to be strong, it is only because of the spirit power protecting it.

When all the spirit power inside the body converges into the Elixir Field, the body’s strength will naturally be comparable to that of an ordinary person.

Perhaps it is still somewhat more resilient than the body of an ordinary person, but when compared to the body of a cultivator, it appears exceptionally weak.

“It seems that after reaching the Foundation Establishment, I will need to learn a body refining technique.”

Feeling the weakness within his body, He Song was reminded in his heart. If he had learned a body refining technique by now, this phenomenon would never have occurred.

If there were some extreme situations in the future.

If he had learned a body refining technique earlier, perhaps it could save his life.

For the sake of his own future survival.

After becoming alert, He Song felt that all the spirit power within his body had entered his Elixir Field and had been firmly bound within it.

With a thought, six small jade bottles appeared before He Song.

He reached out to grab the jade bottles and opened them one by one.

Immediately.

A rich fragrance emanated from the six small jade bottles in front of He Song.

As soon as he caught a whiff, He Song felt a surge of strength in his body.

Seeing this, He Song’s mind was shaken.

Indeed, the Foundation Establishment Elixir is truly terrifying in its effectiveness.

But, it was not the time to contemplate this.

At the moment, He Song had already bound all the spirit power within his body to his Elixir Field. All he needed to do was to take the Foundation Establishment Elixir and allow its medicinal power to help him compress his spirit power as much as possible.

With the assistance of six Foundation Establishment Elixirs.

It was reasonable to assume that He Song would find the compression of spirit power much easier during the process.

Six Foundation Establishment Elixirs!

Ordinarily, a cultivator having just one Foundation Establishment Elixir would greatly bolster their confidence in reaching the Foundation Establishment.

While just one of these Elixirs increased the success rate slightly, it could still drive some loose cultivators at Qi Refining great perfection into madness.

For loose cultivators, having a single Foundation Establishment Elixir is considered great fortune.

For disciples of sects and children of aristocratic families, having one Foundation Establishment Elixir and some insights from seniors regarding the Foundation Establishment is already a great resource.

But for He Song.

Foundation Establishment Elixirs? He has six!

Foundation Establishment insights? He has read many, and even received personal instruction from two Foundation Establishment Masters!

Moreover, He Song also has the secret skill of Qi Sinking into Elixir Field Skill that can increase the success rate of reaching the Foundation Establishment.

With the blessing of these things.

At this moment, He Song, who was sitting cross-legged at the peak of a mountain and preparing to make a breakthrough to the Foundation

Establishment Realm, did not believe that his attempt at reaching the Foundation Establishment would end in failure.

He opened his mouth.

A Foundation Establishment Elixir entered He Song’s stomach.

Immediately after, He Song felt a powerful medicinal effect that enveloped the area around his Elixir Field as soon as the Elixir entered his stomach.

Apart from this medicinal effect that assisted He Song in compressing the spirit power in his Elixir Field.

Another part of the medicinal power spread throughout his limbs and bones, as well as the outer part of his Elixir Field.

This portion of the medicinal power had no effect in helping He Song compress the spirit power in his Elixir Field.

It would only function when the spirit power in the Elixir Field went out of control due to a failed breakthrough attempt, in which case this medicinal power would protect He Song from dying on the spot due to failed Foundation Establishment.

Upon feeling that these two parts of the medicinal power were ready, He Song still did not start ms Foundation Establlsnment process.

On the contrary.

After realizing that a single Foundation Establishment Elixir contained two types of medicinal power, He Song did not hesitate to consume the remaining five Foundation Establishment Elixirs all at once.

Immediately, a surge of powerful medicinal effects spread through He Song’s body, making him feel a rush of hot blood straight to his forehead.

Six Foundation Establishment Elixirs were ingested, and at the location of He Song’s Elixir Field, the medicinal effects had almost solidified. He Song only needed to sense it slightly to detect the supportive effects of this power.

The Qi Sinking into Elixir Field Skill was used.

Another six Foundation Establishment Elixirs were ingested.

Now, it was time for him to launch an assault towards Foundation Establishment!

Determination flashed in He Song’s eyes, and with a wave of his hand, countless dazzling spirit stones appeared around him.

Under the sunlight, the spirit stones placed around He Song looked incredibly dazzling.

At this moment, He Song sat in the midst of these spirit stones, and the abundant spirit Qi around him even gave him the illusion that he was within a spirit stone vein.

After doing all this, He Song still felt that it wasn’t secure enough.

After some thought, he took all the other spirit stones from his body and placed them around him.

Although he was not sure if placing spirit stones beside him could increase the success rate of Foundation Establishment.

But since breaking through the Qi-refining mid stage and Qi-refining late stage both had an increased chance when spirit stones were placed nearby, it should be the same for attempting Foundation Establishment.

Other cultivators couldn’t, like him, place tens of thousands of spirit stones around themselves.

That was because they were poor.

He Song was not poor.

Thus, he could make such an attempt.

After doing all this and feeling the increased concentration of spirit Qi around him, He Song finally closed his eyes in peace and began attempting Foundation Establishment.

With closed eyes.

He Song immediately felt the location of his Elixir Field.

The spirit power firmly restrained in his Elixir Field was now waiting for him to compress them.

The tremendous medicinal power generated from the Foundation Establishment Elixirs was also waiting for him.

At this moment, as long as He Song had a thought, the spirit power he firmly restrained in his Elixir Field would be compressed for the first time.

He calmed his emotions.

He Song then made a mental move.

Compress spirit power!

With the assistance of the powerful medicinal effects within his body, He Song quickly started his first attempt to compress his spirit power.

During the first compression of spirit power, He Song mustered all his strength and directly compressed the spirit power in his Elixir Field to his own limits.

Feeling that he could no longer make any progress, He Song then firmly restrained the spirit power in his Elixir Field that had been compressed once, while secretly gathering his strength.

Only when he felt that he had gathered enough strength and was ready to compress the spirit power in his Elixir Field again did he attempt the second compression of spirit power.

This method.

It was first proposed by Meng Guan and then tested twice by Wei Fan, resulting in a method that could maximize the compression of the spirit power in the Elixir Field.

Even the Foundation Establishment Masters from the Thick Earth Sect used a similar method when compressing spirit power during their breakthroughs to Foundation Establishment.

When He Song was reading in the Book Collection Pavilion, he had seen many insights from the Thick Earth Sect’s Foundation Establishment Masters regarding Foundation Establishment.

In these insights, methods like this one were often used.

Benefitting from the experiences of predecessors, He Song naturally wouldn’t explore other methods on his own.

Moreover, with Wei Fan and Meng Guan’s successful examples, the feasibility of this method had been confirmed. Naturally, He Song had nothing to hesitate about.

Thus, after the first and second compressions.

He quickly prepared to compress his spirit power for the third time.

According to Meng Guan and Wei Fan’s descriptions.

Compressing spirit power in the Elixir Field required many attempts before a trace of mana could be successfully created.

This number was fixed.

Eleven was the limit.

More than eleven would result in failure. Less than eleven would result in success.

For example, Meng Guan.

It was during his tenth compression of spirit power that the first trace of mana was born within his Elixir Field.

If he hadn’t birthed that trace of mana during his tenth compression, he would’ve likely failed Foundation Establishment and become an ordinary person.

As for Wei Fan.

Because Wei Fan had experienced one failure in Foundation Establishment, the insights he shared with He Song about Foundation Establishment were more comprehensive.

During Wei Fan’s first attempt at Foundation Establishment.

He compressed his spirit power in his Elixir Field a total of ten times.

Unfortunately, he still couldn’t compress the first trace of mana after the tenth compression.

As a result.

Wei Fan’s first attempt at Foundation Establishment ended in failure.

At the same time, he provided He Song with an accurate number.

If the spirit power in the Elixir Field didn’t produce a trace of mana after ten compressions, Foundation Establishment would fail, and the cultivator would be severely injured.

Two years later, Wei Fan began his second attempt at Foundation Establishment.

This time, Wei Fan compressed the spirit power in his Elixir Field only nine times before suddenly feeling a trace of mana appear in it.

After operating this trace of mana and continuously transforming his body’s spirit power into mana.

Wei Fan’s second Foundation Establishment attempt succeeded.

This time, Wei Fan compressed his spirit power less than ten times before he birthed a trace of mana.

Comparing the two attempts, He Song naturally understood that the “limit of eleven” had no errors.

That is to say.

As long as He Song could create the first trace of mana within his Elixir Field within the ten compressions of spirit power.

He would successfully establish his Foundation..
