In my twilight years of cultivating, I became a Supreme Daoist of the Longevity Path Chapter 162

It isn’t about difficulty; it’s about being eliminated.

Ah, I have heard so rumors that because there has been an influx of cultivators escaping from the northeastern corner recently, and the fighting between the two sects, Mingyue and Wangyue, is relentless.

It’s said that several other Immortal’s gateways have also beco involved, the flas of war spreading rapidly, leading to a resource shortage, and thus higher requirents.”

“Curses!

Mingyue and Wangyue, you’ve ruined my path to Changchun!”

Chen Dengming, mixed amongst the crowd, looked astonishedly at a fellow cultivator beside him who was beating his chest and stomping his feet, baring his teeth in frustration.

“What are you looking at?”

This cultivator unconsciously snarled, then instantly froze his expression, laughing awkwardly, “Ah sorry, so it is Elder Brother Gao, Ma just spoke a bit loudly just now, didn’t I frighten you?”

Chen Dengming gave a polite smile, “It’s fine, I understand your feelings.”

“As if you could understand.

You’re about to establish your foundation, how could you empathize with soone like who cos from a mundane small kingdom?”

Ma snorted internally, but still maintained his polite expression, saying, “Elder Brother Gao, you’re really down to earth and kind, and Ma enjoys interacting with cultivators like you.

...

Oh, by the way, fellow cultivator, are you also interested in the Changchun Sect?

Are you planning to apply for an executive position?”

“No, I’m just here to watch and join in the excitent…”

Chen Dengming answered with a smile, finally looking at the notice’s number of slots and the recruitnt ti for disciples, and then turning to leave.

The real recruitnt of disciples would start in seven days.

In these seven days, a considerable number of loose cultivators and mbers of cultivation families would undoubtedly rush to the Changchun Sect to try their luck.

Even for so cultivation families with Foundation Establishnt cultivators, it is a matter of great joy and importance to have their children join the Changchun Sect.

It’s just like in the previous life, many children’s parents were elite business and political figures, yet they still hoped their children could enter a prestigious school, which would be extraordinary for expanding their social connections or future achievents.

However, due to the recent turbulence in the surrounding environnt, the Changchun Sect seems to have adjusted their standards for recruiting disciples, akin to a university raising its admission cut-off point.

Many cultivators like Ma, who thought they were confident, have lost their qualifications to join.

This missed opportunity could change the trajectory of so people’s lives.

Chen Dengming did not reveal to Ma his intention to join the Changchun Sect.

He was new here and genuinely had no close friends.

There was no need to reveal any personal details.

Over the past ten days, he had attempted to break through to the Foundation Establishnt twice.

The results were hair-raising each ti.

For now, he hadn’t decided if he wanted to continue trying.

Breaking through to Foundation Establishnt was not just about hanging around the entrance without going in and expecting everything to be fine.

You can’t just keep hanging around the entrance for free.

The first ti he tried, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit deeply entered one-fifth of his Spiritual Root.

The second ti he tried, maybe because the path had widened due to the first attempt, he ended up going deeper and reached a quarter.

That ti, he almost didn’t see it coming, and the condensed Essence, Qi, and Spirit nearly exploded due to the pressure.

If the Essence, Qi, and Spirit explode within the Spiritual Root, it’s like opening the gate to the underworld, causing the Primordial Qi, YuanJing, and Primordial Spirit to leak out, signaling the failure of the Foundation Establishnt and significant loss of Primordial Qi.

Going for another attempt would then be quite troubleso.

Fortunately, Chen Dengming was alert enough.

The mont he felt his Essence, Qi, and Spirit starting to disperse, he reined in his spirit, resisting the floating feeling and attraction to ascend into a higher realm, and quickly retreated.

It was a close call, but disaster was averted.

The second attempt scared him quite a bit, and he almost gave up on breaking through himself.

Instead, he considered going with the flow and fighting for the Foundation Establishnt Pill.

It wasn’t until the day before that he gradually cald down and attempted the third try.

The third ti, the path to the top of the Five Elents Mountain seed wider.

He easily went a quarter deep.

The path turned out to be the complete opposite of the rumor that it was ‘narrow at the beginning and wide enough for people later.’

The path was wide at the beginning but beca narrower and narrower as he went in.

The third ti, Chen Dengming only went a third of the way in before promptly retreating.

He took no further risks.

He had an ominous feeling that if he couldn’t solidify his Essence, Qi, and Spirit further,

The fourth attempt could be dangerous.

With each step he takes, the closer he gets to successfully establishing his foundation, the greater the risk.

Maybe on the fourth attempt, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit would directly surpass a third of the progress, going halfway in, and then being crushed and exploding.

“Until I clearly understand what Life Potential Energy is lost when the foundation fails, I’ll play it safe and not blindly rush in…

After all, it doesn’t seem to be about lifespan.

Otherwise, my Life Potential Energy should be substantial, enough not to overturn the Five Elents Mountain.”

“I still have nearly two hundred years to live well.

I’m not in a hurry.

If I can’t get into the Changchun Sect, then I can’t.

As long as the environnt here doesn’t change, I can continue to cultivate at my own pace.”

Chen Dengming’s attitude was positive.

After his last attempt at establishing his foundation, he realized that if he took a step back, the whole world would open up to him, and he felt less urgent.

Of course, this lack of urgency is based on the premise that the war in the northeast corner will not spread here, so a bit of pressure still exists, even if it’s not apparent for the ti being.

Therefore, even though Li Rong hadn’t co to see him recently, he remained calm and composed, living his life, continuing his cultivation, and interacting with his neighbors as before.

His attitude was very good.
