Chapter 401: Chapter 300 Foundation Establishment 2nd Level_2
The Foundation Faction believes in taking steady steps to reach the peak.
However, the Realm Faction believes in limited lifespan, and expects to elevate their realm within the shortest possible time. After all, the higher the realm, the longer the lifespan. And when the realm can’t be further elevated, they slowly make up the foundation and cultivate other skills later, creating breakthroughs.
Without a doubt, Chen Mobai is a supporter of the Realm Faction.
After all, he has ample resources to build up his realm first. And when he just about hits the bottleneck of advancing into the major realm, he would cross the widespread obstacles of Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, and other stages considered mountainous to cultivators.
Anyway, this is how Chen Mobai successfully crossed the Foundation Establishment stage. So he plans to elevate himself to the Perfection of foundation first, then find ways to collect Golden Elixir spiritual medicines and use them in combination with the Dual-Phase technique.
Even if his own foundation is somewhat weak by then, the five-percent probability to complete the Core Formation through the combined use of liquid gold jade rebirth pill and Dual-Phase technique should be good enough, especially if the first attempt fails, he should succeed on the second try according to probability theory.
After leaving Luo Hezheng’s office, Chen Mobai went upstairs to meet his teacher, Che Yucheng.
The meetings between this mentor and his disciple decreased over the year.
Mainly because Chen Mobai spent most of the past year cultivating in seclusion, with the stable expansion of his Little Red Sky, his Yuan Yang sword has also been requisitioned by Gongye Zhixu according to Che Yucheng’s plan.
As the Dance Tool Daoist Academy had no problems, Che Yucheng didn’t have to guide Chen Mobai, leaving him to comfortably cultivate with the Qi-replenishing Spirit Water.
“Given your annual improvements, you actually look like a top student now,” Che Yucheng said with restrained satisfaction after hearing Chen Mobai’s cultivation progress. Chen Mobai laughed awkwardly, he had initially thought his pace of cultivation was quite fast.
However, among the four major Dao academies, most of those from the Dance Tool Daoist Academy are from the Realm Faction, notoriously known for quickly elevating their realms.
The main reasons for this are “The Union of Differences” and the Spiritual Artifact Cultivation Method that sprang from this divine metaphysical method. And the multitude of magic artifacts in the Treasure Trove added to their mastery.
By making use of the Spiritual Artifact Cultivation Method, Chen Mobai continuously draws on the pure yang essence within the Hexayang Divine Fire Mirror, coupled with an ample supply of Qi-replenishing Spirit Water, he advances one realm every year. This is just barely catching up with the average level achieved by the top students in the history of the Dance Tool Daoist Academy.
“Master, I’ve been toiling away in the Little Red Sky for the academy this year, and brought glory back to our Dance Tool Dao. I heard from Wang Xingyu that in a few days, the alchemy department will have a pool of Rank-2 Qi-replenishing Spirit Water ready. Do you think you could speak to Master Luo for me…”
Chen Mobai revealed the main reason for his visit, of course, Che Yucheng agreed to this small but totally legal and legitimate request.
After all, the Dance Tool Dao had scored the highest points in Little Red Sky this year, thanks to Chen Mobai’s Battle Law Victory, which held the top position for the longest time. This merit can easily be converted into some Qi-replenishing Spirit Water exchange quota even if it were brought up with the principal; it’s reasonable.
“Once the Qi-replenishing Spirit Water is ready, look for Luo Hezheng. I’ll let him reserve a liter for you. But this time, you need to exchange it with your own points.”
“Thank you, Master.”
A liter of Qi-replenishing Spirit Water is worth 10 points. After Chen Mobai exchanged two Vermillion Fruits and a Small Barrier Breaking Elixir, he will still have 16 points left on his student card, more than enough.
After leaving Che Yucheng’s place, Chen Mobai went to see his good pal, Yunyang Bing.
“Here, be sure to return it when you’re done.”
Yunyang Bing handed a cloth bag to Chen Mobai. It was a special spirit gathering array he meticulously researched, capable of elevating a top-grade Rank-3 Spirit Vein to lower-grade Rank-4.
This spirit gathering array was one of the factors in Ming Yuhua’s success in achieving Foundation Establishment last year.
“Thanks, brother. I’ll buy you a drink when I break through.”
“Don’t bother. Like I said, if I don’t achieve Foundation Establishment, I’m not touching alcohol in this lifetime.”
Yunyang Bing declined with a cold face.
In the Metaphysical Class, two more individuals achieved Foundation Establishment this year. Among the three cultivators of the 5012 Pure Yang Scroll, Yunyang Bing was the only one yet to have done so, causing him considerable pressure recently.
He made up his mind to put his research on formations on hold, and dedicate himself solely to achieve Foundation Establishment from next year onwards.
However, he had already understood the Edge Method this year, so Chen Mobai felt that even without trying hard, Yunyang Bing should be able to achieve Foundation Establishment quite easily next year.
The annual gathering of the Metaphysical Class was canceled this year because most of them felt the pressure. When Chen Mobai and Ming Yuhua achieved Foundation Establishment, they were still comforting themselves that they would catch up.
But earlier this year, after Lan Yufan successfully achieved Foundation Establishment by severing his lingering romantic attachment, everyone started to panic.
The remaining four who understood the Edge Method all rented rooms in Building No.9 for a year and took an oath in the group that they wouldn’t come out unless they had succeeded in achieving Foundation Establishment.
But when the end of the year arrived, not one of them had come out.
Instead, after breaking up with her boyfriend, Lu Zixuan, who drastically changed her temperament, forced herself to break into the Foundation Building Realm without understanding the Edge Method and succeeded.
Regarding this, Chen Mobai could only remark how extreme the two of them were. The fact that strong emotional stimulation was needed for them to achieve Foundation Establishment made their progress less steady than his own natural process.
After receiving the Spirit Gathering Array from Yunyang Bing, Chen Mobai also checked into Building No.9.
Sitting cross-legged on the soft carpet, he cast his Divine Sense out of his body, placing the Array Plate and the eight Array Flags at the appropriate positions. In an instant, Chen Mobai felt as if the originally dense spiritual energy had been sucked out in the blink of an eye, becoming extremely rarefied.
