This small cup that Small Knife has, even for a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, requires several months of refinent effort.
Such a thing cannot be exchanged even with sect contributions because it is incredibly rare, and when it appears, it’s quickly snapped up by various elders and such.
That Small Knife got to taste it was a congratulatory gesture from the Sect Leader for him reaching the Peak of Qi Cultivation.
At the Five Elents Sword Sect, as long as one reaches Foundation Establishnt, they can extract the corresponding Five Elents Spiritual Objects. The Water Elent Sect, as a branch of the Five Elents Sword Sect, naturally possesses the techniques for extracting and refining Spirit Water.
Consuming Spirit Water can stabilize the spiritual energy within one’s body.
Usually, upon reaching the Peak of the Ninth-Layer of Qi Cultivation, it takes about ten years of honing to reach perfection, which is the most suitable ti for taking the Foundation Establishnt Pill.
This cup of Spirit Water directly saved Small Knife ten years of hard work.
Although Small Knife felt he might not necessarily need it, he still expressed his gratitude repeatedly.
"No need to say more. You are under thirty years old, at the Peak of Qi Cultivation. Once you establish your foundation, even if you enter the Upper Sect, you have the potential to beco a Core Disciple, with limitless potential," the Sect Leader spoke directly.
Subsequently, he directly took out the Foundation Establishnt Pill.
Foundation Establishnt Pill: Lower Grade, Second Realm Spirit Pill, can assist in breaking through from the Peak of the First Realm Qi Cultivation to the Foundation Establishnt of the Second Realm.
Tip 1: Due to your Half Spirit Root, taking the Foundation Establishnt Pill only increases the success rate by twenty percent. Along with your cultivation technique not having achieved Great Success, the total success rate is twenty percent. It is not recomnded to take it imdiately to break through.
Tip 2: The Foundation Establishnt Pill can be taken consecutively, and it is recomnded to prepare three pills for the highest success rate.
"Oh man, three pills?"
"Sect Leader, my Spirit Root is average, could I possibly get two more?" At this mont, it wasn’t a ti for politeness, so Small Knife directly asked.
This left the Sect Leader montarily stunned before he smiled wryly, repeatedly emphasizing the preciousness of the Foundation Establishnt Pill.
This left Small Knife sowhat deflated.
However, the Sect Leader stated that he ca from the Upper Realm, and in the Water Elent Sect, apart from those two old fellows, only he still held Foundation Establishnt Pills, but it was impossible to take them out without reason.
Small Knife was delighted but hadn’t had ti to inquire further when the Sect Leader stated that it was impossible to buy Foundation Establishnt Pills with Spirit Stones in this world.
Of course, using so precious Spiritual Objects to exchange for them was possible, such as objects that can rapidly increase cultivation speed.
Basically, it was as good as explicitly stated.
He further explained that even so Little Worlds, like this world, primarily because they are worlds, will occasionally or inevitably give birth to so special Spiritual Objects.
These are unattainable but can be obtained only when the opportunity arises.
However, as they are born of this Little World, it is already rare for them to have a good effect on the Qi Cultivation Stage.
Upon reaching the Foundation Establishnt Stage, the effect is greatly diminished, making it the best choice to exchange for Foundation Establishnt Pills.
Small Knife said he would consider it.
The Sect Leader did not rush him, but he made it clear that since he had reached the Peak of Qi Cultivation, he could not go out and needed to establish his foundation as soon as possible.
Regardless of success, he must proceed to the Central Domain Five Elents Sword Sect.
This ti fra was one year.
"Restricting my actions? Not allowed to go out?" This made Small Knife very dissatisfied.
But the Sect Leader stated that all disciples reaching this level were handled likewise.
So Small Knife returned to his abode cave.
According to information from the Little Cultivator, the Foundation Establishnt Pill usually costs more than ten thousand Spirit Stones.
This was a sky-high price, and even if Small Knife wanted to save up such a sum, it would be too difficult.
Moreover, it was now confird that it couldn’t be purchased, so he pondered what to use for an exchange?
According to the Little Cultivator, along with the purchase price, the Entry-level Spirit Water in Small Knife’s possession was valued at just one or two Spirit Stones per drop.
Even Spirit Liquid costs only a thousand Spirit Stones per drop.
Though he didn’t have much, it should be enough to exchange for the Foundation Establishnt Pill.
But Spirit Liquid also couldn’t rapidly enhance his Qi Cultivation Level.
As for other things, nothing seed suitable to exchange for such a precious item as the Foundation Establishnt Pill.
Small Knife pondered for a long ti but couldn’t think of a good idea.
Using a single Spirit Stone for Foundation Establishnt had too low a success rate.
So he started diligently cultivating Spiritual Sense, which, at least at Great Success, could increase the success rate of Foundation Establishnt by ten percent.
Ti slowly passed.
The Head-Changing Cultivators under his command, naly Outer Sect Disciples, ca to deliver ssages from ti to ti.
The outside was growing increasingly chaotic.
Ordinary citizens were indifferent, but those Immortal Masters, also known as Loose Cultivators, were living in fear.
Because a large number of Immortal Masters were going missing when they ventured out for various reasons.
The number had now reached an alarming figure.
So city-protecting Immortal Masters within cities were even ambushed, killed, or went missing.
Without a doubt, this was the work of the World Alliance.
Ordinary Immortal Masters, who had few Magical Artifacts, found themselves defenseless. With the Undying and Holy Sanctuary’s two major forces no longer hiding and launching full-scale, preditated attacks, this was the result.
This led various cultivation sects to directly issue a large number of missions, and so Inner Sect Disciples and even Core Disciples were sent out to investigate.
It had clearly alard the higher-ups.
These situations were closely related to Small Knife.
Because they had issued missions to capture Immortal Masters alive, offering rewards of Entry-level Spirit Water, even Spirit Pattern Diagrams, and eggs that massively increased Experience as bounties.
anwhile, on Small Knife’s side, after closing himself off for so ti, he was basically certain that he would be unable to achieve Great Success in his Spirit Formulas in the next two to three years.
And the Sect Leader’s requirent was for him to reach Foundation Establishnt within a year, regardless of whether he succeeded.
By then, he must proceed to the Five Elents Sword Sect.
Half a year passed, and Small Knife was summoned once again.
Upon eting the Sect Leader, Small Knife wanted to negotiate and delay Foundation Establishnt for a few more years.
The Sect Leader shook his head and said, "This is an order from the Five Elents Sword Sect. Your information has already been sent up. It’s not just you; even the Foundation Establishnt Cultivators within the sect, whether they are at the Peak of Qi Cultivation Elders or Core Disciples without potential, have been fully mobilized. Even I, as the Sect Leader, must make a trip."
Given this level of discourse, Small Knife knew that unless he went into hiding, he couldn’t go against it.
Helplessly, Small Knife took out so Entry-level Spirit Water.
The Sect Leader was obviously quite interested, but he still refused to exchange for the Foundation Establishnt Pill.
With no other choice, Small Knife returned ho.
He pondered that the Sect Leader and the elders he suspected had Foundation Establishnt Pills they contacted would clearly only exchange for opportunities that could quickly increase Qi Cultivation cultivation, and nothing else.
They didn’t even quote a price, so hoping for a high price was futile.
In front of his abode was a Spirit Fruit Tree and a small plot of Spirit Field, both part of Small Knife’s assets as a Core Disciple, bound to his abode.
These were managed by Outer Sect Disciples, a man and a woman. The woman was nearing middle age, while the man was even in his sixties, both at the Peak of the Third-Layer of Qi Cultivation’s strength.
Their strength was considerable, which allowed them to compete for the position here.
The ample Spiritual Qi here helped them break through bottlenecks and beco Inner Sect Disciples.
The old man’s hair had already turned grey; in truth, he could have retired and enjoyed life, but he was unwilling to give up. This bottleneck at the Qi Cultivation Third Layer had troubled him for over twenty years.
When Small Knife waved them over, the two of them imdiately ran over quickly.
"I need to test a thod. It may cause so harm but could also help you break through your bottlenecks. Are you willing to try?"
Small Knife asked, with the main target being the old man, but both agreed without hesitation.
Their dedication to cultivation was beyond what Small Knife had imagined.
This was a thought that had just sprung to Small Knife’s mind.
Once it erged, he planned to try it out.
Actually, it was quite simple: to see if the Experience that directly enhances the strength of players and NPCs would work on the natives.
The woman, being younger, went first.
She sat cross-legged, directly beginning her cultivation.
Small Knife started refining Innate Essence Blood.
Naturally, it was the familiar set process, with a large amount of Experience rapidly consuming, turning into a heat flow, quickly condensing.
Yet, instead of condensing it, Small Knife directly guided it, infusing it into the woman’s body.
Phew!
Overwheld by the torrent of Experience-condensed heat flow, the woman couldn’t handle it and spurted out blood, her face flushed red as she fainted imdiately.
This startled Small Knife, who quickly stopped his action.
Upon inspection, she had internal injuries but they were not fatal, so he fed her a healing Spirit dicine.
Soon, the female disciple slowly regained consciousness.
She was ecstatic that she had broken through, clearing the bottleneck to reach the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer, finally qualifying as an Inner Sect Disciple.
Imdiately, she bowed to Small Knife, expressing her gratitude.
This made the old man next to her excited, as he too fell to his knees.
Cultivators are proud, but in the face of an opportunity to break through, they are willing to risk their lives, even if the chances are slim, let alone trying to preserve their pride.
