Chapter 310: Chapter 145: Foundation Establishment, Yin Yang Five Elements Dao Foundation!_1
May, also called the Gao Month.
On the fifteenth of May, this day is also known as the day of ‘Great Yin’s Coalescence’.
As night fell, a crescent moon was slowly rising.
In the Qingyun Marketplace, nestled on the mountainside of Core Peak, within a cave dwelling.
“Changsheng.”
Xiao Xiyue looked at the man before her, Lu Changsheng, and called out softly.
She was dressed in a moon-white garment.
The curves of her lithe figure were tastefully concealed by the attire.
Yet her beauty was still obvious.
Underneath the skirt, the outlines of her long, straight, jade-like legs were faintly visible.
Her delicate feet adorned with white silk stockings and embroidered shoes appeared untouched by dust.
At this moment, Xiao Xiyue reverted to her formerly detached demeanor.
Her bearing was cold and saintly, like the mysterious moon in the nine heavens.
Her devastating beauty carried an aloof grace that seemed untouched by worldly taint.
She was like the everlasting ice and snow, inspiring reverence at a glance.
“Let’s begin.”
Lu Changsheng gazed at Xiao Xiyue’s bearing, nodded, and spoke no further.
Xiao Xiyue’s cool and luminous gaze met with Lu Changsheng’s eyes, which shone like stars, clear and devoid of worldly desires.
In the most secret depths of her heart, ripples of love began to stir.
Her breath grew slightly erratic, betraying the fairy’s inner turmoil.
They locked eyes for a moment, and her soft, boneless, white hands reached out to encircle his neck.
As stars shifted and oceans transformed, amidst the flowing water and falling flowers, a harmonious symphony of life began to play.
The two of them listened to this silent symphony.
Spirit and flesh started to merge into the rhythm of the symphony, making it increasingly hard to distinguish between each other.
Outside the cave dwelling, under the endless night sky, the bright moon hung high.
A fierce flood dragon soared from the abyss toward the bright moon, roaring as it went.
In the face of the vicious flood dragon, the cool and luminous bright moon burst forth with dazzling light.
However, under the flood dragon’s assault, the cool and proud bright moon seemed to frown like a fairy, and with a soft chant, endless moonlight poured forth, merging into the flood dragon’s body.
The flood dragon, having absorbed the essence of the bright moon, howled towards the sky, yearning to transform from a flood dragon into a true dragon!
“Changsheng!”
Inside the dwelling, although Xiao Xiyue maintained the dual cultivation stance, the passion that had adorned her beautiful face was now replaced by a noble and sacred radiance.
Lu Changsheng said nothing.
As the Great Yin moonlight from Xiao Xiyue surged into his body, his Dantian seemed to be set aflame with towering waves, roaring continuously.
This roaring was inaudible to others, but Lu Changsheng felt it clearly within himself, like thunder, rumbling mightily.
He hadn’t yet begun to initiate the Foundation Establishment, yet his seven-colored Dantian was already roaring and churning.
It seemed as if a myriad of golden light wished to condense from within the Dantian.
“If I do not succeed, it would be a defiance of the natural order!”
Lu Changsheng felt this overwhelming and vast power, his eyes bright with a spirited gleam.
With a gesture, a porcelain bottle from his Storage Bag fell into his hand.
It was the Foundation Establishment Elixir.
His current condition for undertaking the Foundation Establishment, even without the elixir, held a seventy to eighty percent certainty of success.
But.
Even with the slightest risk, Lu Changsheng was unwilling to accept it.
The Foundation Establishment Elixir could not only harmonize the three barriers, enhancing the Spiritual Root’s transformation and absorption of nature’s spiritual energy,
But it could also ensure that one would not suffer backlash in the event of a failed Foundation Establishment.
If Foundation Establishment failed, at best one would be injured and their cultivation level would regress.
At worst, the meridians and Dantian could be damaged, leaving one crippled or even leading to the demise of one’s cultivation path.
Therefore, even with a ninety-nine percent chance of success, Lu Changsheng would choose to consume the Foundation Establishment Elixir for his breakthrough!
“Boom!”
As the Foundation Establishment Elixir was ingested, Lu Changsheng’s ‘Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture’ began to circulate within him, as Spiritual Power, like a tidal wave, converged towards his Dantian, assaulting the barriers for Foundation Establishment.
The Spiritual Energy within the cave also surged towards him like a raging tempest at this moment, forming a vortex of Spiritual Energy.
“Rumble!”
Simultaneously, the qi and blood within Lu Changsheng’s body began to seethe tumultuously, rushing forth like mighty rivers and streams.
First barrier of Foundation Establishment—the Qi and Blood Barrier!
This barrier required the infusion of immense nature’s spiritual energy into one’s meridians and Dantian.
If the body cannot withstand this process, Foundation Establishment would fail.
This is why cultivators over the age of sixty, whose bodies gradually age and qi and blood weaken, or those with disabilities and hidden illnesses, have almost no hope of establishing their Foundation.
Because they simply cannot bear such an infusion of immense spiritual energy.
Lu Changsheng, having cultivated the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art, possessed a fleshly body comparable to high-quality magic artifacts.
Facing the spiritual energy tempest that swept through like a storm, he was like an ancient divine mountain, unshaken by wind and rain, standing tall and immovable.
Second barrier of Foundation Establishment—the Mana Barrier!
During the Qi Refinement Realm, one transforms nature’s spiritual energy into one’s own Spiritual Power.
But when initiating Foundation Establishment, one must transform this Spiritual Power into Mana, converting from a gaseous to a liquid state.
The purer and denser the Spiritual Power, the easier it is to liquefy and transform into Mana.
If one consumed too many Elixir Medicines during the Qi Refinement Realm, or relied on Breakthrough Elixirs, tonic supplements, and other methods, it could lead to a base of Spiritual Power that’s insubstantial and impure Mana, making it hard to condense the Dao Foundation.
Lu Changsheng cultivated the Orthodox Level Cultivation Technique ‘Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture’, thus his Spiritual Power was naturally extremely pure.
While he relied on a constant intake of elixirs and often engaged in dual cultivation with women,
Seven Luminaries Sword Qi was capable of refining away the Elixir Toxicity.
Additionally, his dual cultivation was practiced with moderation, merely as a marital pleasure, and was not used as a means to enhance his Cultivation Level.
Therefore, there wasn’t a trace of insubstantiality in the foundation of his Spiritual Power; it was solid and unwavering.
Furthermore, under the influence of the Golden Crow Elixir’s Great Sun Essence and Xiao Xiyue’s Great Yin moonlight, he saw in his Dantian that the essence of the Great Sun and the Great Yin moonlight seemed to transform into a yin-yang fish, helping him swallow and refine nature’s spiritual energy.
Within his qi ocean, the rich gaseous Spiritual Power from the Dantian was continuously being compressed into a liquid state, ready to transform his Dantian into a True Lake.
The third barrier—Divine Sense Barrier.
Previously, under Xiao Xiyue’s guidance and with the aid of the Purple Mansion Nurturing Divine Technique and Jade Soul Flower, he had already given birth to Divine Sense.
