Chapter 126 Master Bestows the Law
Chapter 126 Master Bestows the Law
Although the idea is wonderful, we'll have to try it out ourselves to see how it actually works.
Jiang Chen didn't continue daydreaming, but instead entered the dream world to try it out.
-----------------
[First day of entering the dream]
As soon as he entered the dream, Jiang Chen took out the alchemy furnace and the ingredients for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Ignite the fire, heat the furnace, extract the essence of the medicinal herbs, fuse the essence, and reduce the liquid over high heat—the entire alchemy process is completed in one go.
In just one and a half hours, a batch of Foundation Establishment Pills was successfully produced.
Generally speaking, as long as there are no mistakes, the faster the alchemy process, the better.
After all, once the essence of the medicinal herb is refined, it continues to be scorched by the fire, constantly depleting its value.
Therefore, theoretically, one set of medicinal herbs can yield ten pills, but even a Core Formation cultivator can only produce eight or nine first-grade pills.
Only by refining pills quickly enough can losses be reduced and the number of pills produced increased.
After the furnace temperature dropped, Jiang Chen opened the furnace lid and saw five jade-white Foundation Establishment Pills lying inside, two of which were of good quality.
"After breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage, my divine sense, magical power, and control over external objects have all improved significantly, and the success rate of alchemy has indeed increased considerably."
"I haven't even adapted to the power of a Foundation Establishment cultivator yet, and I've already managed to form five pills."
Once I've adapted to the power, my alchemy skills should improve further.
Upon realizing this, he immediately exited the dream.
-----------------
Back in the real world, Jiang Chen immediately entered the dream again.
The information provided by the Dream Butterfly Painting was indeed correct; he successfully entered the dream once again.
-----------------
[First day of entering the dream]
Jiang Chen repeated the process of entering the dream last time and continued to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Having learned from the previous experience, this batch produced six pills, two of which were of good quality, but unfortunately, one was of inferior quality.
After confirming that he could repeatedly enter the dream, Jiang Chen exited the dream.
-----------------
After returning to the real world, Jiang Chen entered his dream several more times.
However, these times were not for alchemy, but for casting several spells in a dream to quickly adapt to the surge in strength after breaking through to a higher realm.
After more than a month of continuous struggle in his dreams, Jiang Chen's control over his own power was no less than that of veterans who had been at the Foundation Establishment stage for many years.
He immediately pushed open the door and went out, only to see Jiang Yun pacing back and forth outside, her face full of worry.
Li Wusheng was much calmer now, and was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, leisurely sipping tea.
Upon seeing Jiang Chen emerge, Jiang Yun immediately stepped forward, used his divine sense to probe his grandson's magical power fluctuations, and couldn't stop smiling.
"Great! My ancestors for generations were all mortals, but by chance they entered the path of immortality."
His greatest wish in life was to accumulate some assets in Blackstone Mountain Market and establish a cultivation family like the Sun and Li families.
"My descendants will be able to cultivate from a young age, and will not have to suffer the hardships I endured."
"I never imagined that I would be able to see my descendants build their foundations."
Seeing his grandfather's ecstatic joy, Jiang Chen was also in a very good mood.
"Grandpa, I hope you live a few more years so I can see you become a Core Formation True Person."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun was overjoyed: "Okay, then I'll live a few more years."
I'm over ninety years old now, so there's no hope for me to reach the Foundation Establishment stage.
However, I have accumulated quite a few spirit stones over the years, which allows me to buy more longevity-promoting spiritual items.
Putting aside everything else, there's still hope if you live to be 140 or 150.
"Now that you've successfully established your foundation, I can rest assured. You go discuss business first, and I'll go cook you some of my best dishes."
The lifespan of a Qi Refining cultivator is 120 years, but that is the average lifespan of a cultivator who has no hidden injuries and dies peacefully in their sleep.
There are mortals who can live past 120 years old, let alone Qi cultivators.
In the legends of the cultivation world, there was once a Qi Refining cultivator who, with his extraordinary physical talent and life-extending spiritual items, managed to live to be over 180 years old.
Of course, these are all legendary figures.
However, some Qi Refining cultivators from extraordinary backgrounds practice longevity-promoting techniques, avoid fighting with others, and consume longevity-promoting spiritual items, and many of them live to be 140 years old.
After Jiang Yun left, Jiang Chen went to the stone table in the courtyard and bowed to Li Wusheng.
"I trouble you, senior brother, to protect me."
Li Wusheng smiled slightly: "It's alright. We're like brothers, it's only right that we help each other out."
"I have already reported your successful foundation building to Master."
There are some things you deserve to know.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen immediately led Li Wusheng into the training room and activated all the formations.
At this moment, Li Wusheng finally spoke up: "Several years ago, you interrogated prisoners and learned in advance of the Ghost Soul Sect's intention to attack Ironstone Fortress."
Let's turn the tables and severely damage the Ghostly Sect.
Since then, the Ghostly Sect and the demon race have ceased launching large-scale attacks, and the defense line of Changyuan Mountain has been stabilized.
"Without a crisis at the front, the loyalists couldn't sit still and tried every means to cause trouble."
If any of our outsider disciples make a mistake, the people in the Criminal Law Hall will arrest them and punish them severely.
The master argued with them several times, but it had little effect.
"Then the masters simply transferred all the core disciples of the outside sect away from the mountain gate and settled them in Yunze Blessed Land for cultivation."
In recent years, none of the disciples we've recruited from outside the sect have gone to the Golden Cauldron Sect; instead, they've gone directly to the Cloud Marsh Blessed Land.
"But in the last two years, cultivators who have undergone tribulations have frequently appeared around Yunze Blessed Land."
Even our cultivators transporting supplies have been attacked multiple times, suffering considerable losses.
"You've made quite a splash these past few years, and you even reached the Foundation Establishment stage before you turned forty. The direct lineage values you highly."
Master means that you'd better not wander around; stay in Changyuan Mountain or Yunze Blessed Land to cultivate.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen felt a chill run down his spine.
"I never expected the two factions to be so tense. I was thinking of going back to the sect to get the Foundation Establishment stage technique of the Great Dream of a Thousand Autumns."
It seems there's no hope now.
Upon hearing this, Li Wusheng shook his head repeatedly: "Junior Brother Jiang, you'd better not go back to the sect now, or you'll be in big trouble."
"As for the issue of cultivation techniques, Master has already thought of it."
He took out a book made of animal hide: "This is a cultivation technique prepared for you by your master, called the [Thousand Illusions Demon-Slaying Sword Technique]."
"This method can be considered a sword cultivation technique, but it is also a spiritual consciousness technique."
Your spiritual sense is exceptionally strong; you can focus solely on cultivating the spiritual sense aspect, treating it as a secret technique of spiritual sense training.
"Master said that your foundation is related to dreams, and the ever-changing nature of dreams is somewhat in line with this cultivation method."
Even if you can't cultivate sword intent, you can still unleash 60-70% of the power of this technique.
If one can cultivate the [Thousand Illusions Sword Intent] and condense the corresponding divine power seed, one can unleash more than 90% of the power of this technique.
"After mastering this method, one will condense a sword of divine soul, which can slay inner demons and enlighten one's mind and nature."
When facing an enemy, this sword can create numerous illusions and attack the soul.
If you encounter a cultivator whose spiritual sense is weaker than yours, you have a chance to kill them with a single blow.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen became interested.
"This technique is amazing! It's perfect for me!"
With my current spiritual sense, if I master this sword technique, I could kill most early Foundation Establishment cultivators with a sneak attack.
At this moment, Li Wusheng glanced at him and shook his head.
"When fighting someone, I always think about launching a sneak attack."
"Master was right after all. If you were to try to cultivate Master's Iron Heart Sword Dao with your current temperament, even if you had ten thousand years, you still wouldn't succeed."
