Chapter 312: Chapter 145: Foundation Establishment, Yin Yang Five Elements Dao Foundation!_3 “` Unexpectedly, at the final moment of his Foundation Establishment, the spirit-nurturing energy unexpectedly emerged, allowing the Great Sun Essence and Taiyin Moon Essence to merge perfectly. He could feel that before this moment, the Great Sun Essence and the Taiyin Moon Essence were not harmonious, failing to achieve balance. It was under the influence of this spirit-nurturing energy that they could. Moreover, he vaguely felt that this spirit-nurturing energy was even more formidable than the Great Sun Essence and even Xiao Xiyue’s Taiyin Moon Essence. “I wonder what my Dao Foundation can transform into under this power?” Lu Changsheng watched the Seven-Colored Jade Disc-like Dao Foundation in the Dan Lake ‘humming’ and trembling, witnessing his own foundation base recondensing. As for what kind of foundation base his original Seven-Colored Jade Disc-like base would turn into, Lu Changsheng had no idea. After all, Xiao Xiyue had only roughly explained a few types of foundation bases to him. But when it comes to foundation bases, even if they are the same, they vary based on different people’s cultivation techniques and conditions. One can’t generalize. However, Lu Changsheng knew that he now needed a massive amount of Spiritual Energy to support the recondensation of his foundation base. Instantly, his entire being became like a black hole, wholeheartedly devouring the nature’s spiritual energy from all directions, refining the Spiritual Energy and gathering it into his foundation base. “Rumble!” In the Dan Lake, the foundation table shaped like a Seven-Colored Jade Disc grew brighter and more dazzling. In this process, his Seven Luminaries Dao Foundation, due to the Sun and Moon sectors being devoured by the Yin Yang fish, gradually turned its seven colors into five. And after swallowing the Sun and Moon sectors, the small Yin Yang fish that had grown significantly larger swam out from the jade disc, circulating around it. At this moment, the new Dao Foundation began to slowly take shape. The foundation base with its Yin Yang Five Elements light slowly circulated, filled with profound mysteries, and gently rose from the Dan Lake. “Boom, boom, boom—” As the foundation table rose, Lu Changsheng’s heart involuntarily started to beat faster. His meridians expanded, his bones ‘creaked’ noisily, and his blood surged like great rivers and oceans. Each heartbeat brought forth an increase in his entire body’s energy, growing in might from inside out. “Boom!” Eventually, Lu Changsheng’s foundation table lifted off from the Dan Lake and spiraled to his Qi Ocean Core. The foundation table displayed colors of the five elements, surrounded by swirling Yin Yang Energies. In an instant, rays of light burst forth from the foundation base, radiating so intensely they almost penetrated his body. Accompanied by the vast rays of light, an indescribable Mana spread out at this moment, causing Lu Changsheng’s hair to flutter without any wind. Lifting the foundation base, shedding his mortal coil! This massive force of the Yin Yang Five Elements circulated within Lu Changsheng’s body. It cleansed his marrow and polished his skin, scouring every inch of flesh and muscle. Lu Changsheng, who cultivated the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art, already had an immaculate body, but at this moment, still a considerable amount of impurities were expelled. Time passed, no one knew how long. As the inner brilliance dissipated, the transformation ended, and Lu Changsheng opened his eyes. “Foundation Establishment… succeeded!” His pupils seemed to circulate with the Yin Yang energies, emitting blinding rays of light. The impurities on his body dispersed, releasing a refreshing fragrance. “Is this what Foundation Establishment feels like?” Lu Changsheng looked at his pale, translucent body, now reborn from bone to flesh. Feeling the power filling his entire body, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. Foundation Establishment was always a small goal he had strived for. Now, he had finally taken that step. In this world, he could at least protect himself to a certain degree. “With my current strength, I could probably kill my former self with a slap of my hand.” Lu Changsheng felt an unprecedented surge of power within him, and he thought to himself. After his breakthrough in Foundation Establishment, he felt his Mana had increased more than tenfold. Moreover, at the moment of his breakthrough, the Profound Origin Bead within him also spun wildly, inhaling and exhaling Spiritual Energy. It gradually transformed the stored Spiritual Power into Mana. His internal Mana had nearly tripled from its original level. Right then, Lu Changsheng felt better and more confident than ever before. Even if he faced the young man in the red robe from before, he could fight against him. As for killing him, it was hard to say. After all, his licking the packet revealed that the opponent had a backup. And he had just broken through Foundation Establishment, still lacking the appropriate techniques for the Foundation Establishment Stage. “My Divine Sense is almost at eighteen zhang.” “That’s my only weakness now.” Lu Changsheng then checked the status of his Divine Sense. Normal cultivators just breaking through to Foundation Establishment typically have a Divine Sense of around ten zhang. “` His eighteen feet stature, although far surpassing the average level, was indeed a weak point compared to his physical body and mana. Immediately after, Lu Changsheng looked towards the Dao platform within his Qi Ocean Dantian. The Dao platform was like a jade disc, exhibiting five colors, surrounded by the Yin Yang Energies. “Yin Yang Five Elements Foundation Base, so this is my Dao Foundation!” Lu Changsheng, gazing at his own Dao platform, displayed a somewhat odd expression on his face. Upon seeing his Dao Foundation, he instinctively knew the information about his own Foundation. The originally powerful and dominant Seven Luminaries Foundation Base, after transforming into the Yin Yang Five Elements Foundation Base, not only had more formidable mana. The Supreme Yin and Supreme Yang, under the fusion of the Great Sun Essence, the Supreme Yin Moon Essence, and the Spirit-nurturing Energy, had turned into the Yin Yang Energies. These Yin Yang Energies had two effects. One was, that they doubled the effectiveness of his dual cultivation. The other was, by using dual cultivation, to consume his own Yin Yang Energies to repair and refine someone else’s Dao Foundation. Dao Foundations are categorized as fragmented, flawed, flaw-free, and perfect. His Yin Yang Energies could repair the flaws and fractures found in fragmented and flawed Foundations, ultimately refining them into flaw-free ones. This effect could be said to be exceedingly against the heavens. Even though Lu Changsheng did not have much understanding of Foundation Establishment, he knew that all heavenly treasures capable of repairing Dao Foundation flaws were immensely precious and rarely seen. And the fact that his consumption of Yin Yang Energies could repair such flaws, even refining them into flawless Foundations, was truly against the heavens. “This Dao Foundation effect, is it not tempting me to switch cultivation techniques?” Lu Changsheng, watching the Yin Yang Energies flowing on his Dao platform, twitched the corners of his mouth. He thought about the Yin Yang Harmony Technique he possessed. A peripheral sect level cultivation technique that primarily focused on dual cultivation. Of course, if he switched to the Yin Yang Harmony Technique, relying on the effects of the Yin Yang Five Elements Foundation Base, his cultivation level would progress rapidly. But he only allowed himself to think about it. The Yin Yang Harmony Technique was far inferior to the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture. Although the cultivation speed was much faster, the foundation would be much weaker. Moreover, now that he had established his Foundation, switching to another cultivation technique would be very troublesome. If he really switched to another cultivation technique, he might lose thirty to fifty percent of his cultivation level. However, the second effect of the Yin Yang Energies made Lu Changsheng feel quite pleased. He was well aware that among his current wives and concubines, hardly a few could achieve Foundation Establishment. At the moment, only Lu Miaoge was hopeful for Foundation Establishment. But even if she succeeded, it was very likely she would have a flawed Foundation. Forging a flawless Foundation would be difficult. In such a situation, his Dao Foundation effect came into play. If his wives and concubines could forcibly establish their Foundations in the future, even if the Foundations were fragmented, he could still lend a hand. “If I were to make this effect known, I fear countless female cultivators attempting Foundation Establishment would be willing to present themselves at my doorstep, even willing to have children for it.” “After all, being able to refine and repair a Foundation is also a chance for Core Formation.” “But such things definitely cannot be revealed.” “Otherwise, I might end up being captured by some old monster and used as a tool.” Lu Changsheng thought to himself. He also knew this matter absolutely should not be revealed carelessly. “Now that I’ve established my Foundation, shouldn’t I compose a celebratory poem to enhance the occasion?” After checking his own condition, an idea suddenly occurred to Lu Changsheng. Just as he was racking his brains, ready to come up with a celebratory poem, he suddenly sensed that something was off with Xiao Xiyue beside him. “Hmm?” Lu Changsheng turned his gaze towards Xiao Xiyue, who was as cold and pure as the Guanghan Fairy, with jade-like skin and bones, bereft of any thread, attempting Foundation Establishment. Noticing that she was at the point of condensing her Dao Foundation. But something seemed amiss with her condition; the condensation of the Dao Foundation appeared to have encountered some problems. “Lack of spiritual energy!” Lu Changsheng immediately realized what the problem was. Logically, a Second Rank high-grade cave dwelling should have been sufficient for the successful Foundation Establishment of both of them. But just now, during his breakthrough, he had condensed the Seven Luminaries Foundation Base, then transformed it, re-condensing the Seven Luminaries Foundation Base into the Yin Yang Five Elements Foundation Base. At the same time, the Profound Origin Bead inside his body was frantically absorbing spiritual energy. It had nearly depleted over half of the cave dwelling’s nature’s spiritual energy. And at this moment, Xiao Xiyue also began her Foundation Establishment. Xiao Xiyue herself was condensing a Perfect Foundation Base, which required far more of nature’s spiritual energy than the average person. In this circumstance, the lack of sufficient spiritual energy from the cave dwelling made it difficult to support Xiao Xiyue’s successful condensation of her Dao Foundation.
