"After years of bitter cultivation, I have finally reached the Foundation Establishnt stage."
Lu Xuan thought to himself in the quiet room, enjoying the spring breeze of success.
He felt the changes in every part of his body after breaking through to Foundation Establishnt.
In his sea of consciousness, his spiritual awareness had grown more than three tis stronger than the Qi cultivation stage, both in the distance it could extend and the subtleties it could perceive.
His physical strength had also improved significantly. His blood flowed like rcury, and with a slight movent of his bones, they made cracking sounds, giving his entire body a sense of beauty combining strength and speed.
In the Qi cultivation stage, cultivators typically lived around 150 years. After reaching a hundred, their bodies would begin to enter a stage of decline. However, Foundation Establishnt cultivators usually had a lifespan ranging from three hundred to five hundred years, extending their lives by at least a hundred years.
The most significant change was in spiritual power. After the liquefaction of Qi in the Dantian, a drop of spirit liquid contained spiritual power equivalent to at least ten percent of the Qi cultivation stage, significantly enhancing the speed and power of spellcasting.
This also ant he could now perform more spells related to spiritual plants and cultivate a greater number of spirit plants and beasts.
After feeling the changes of breaking through to Foundation Establishnt, Lu Xuan left the quiet room.
Walking through the corridor, he arrived at a hall.
In the hall, a graceful female cultivator enjoying spirit tea raised her head, and her faint spiritual awareness swept over Lu Xuan. A smile appeared on her face.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Lu. From now on, we shall address each other as senior sister and junior brother."
"Thank you, senior sister. I'm just fortunate."
The female cultivator naturally considered Lu Xuan's words as modesty. Breaking through to Foundation Establishnt at such a young age couldn't be solely attributed to "luck."
"Junior Brother Lu is the first to co out. The other six are still in seclusion for breakthroughs. Why not sit here, and I'll brief you on matters after breaking through Foundation Establishnt?"
"Of course, senior sister. I'd appreciate that."
Lu Xuan readily agreed.
"Breaking through to Foundation Establishnt ans growing as an inner sect disciple, forming a deeper bond with the sect."
"At the sa ti, you'll have access to the sect's more core secrets and receive more resources for cultivation."
"Next, Junior Brother Lu needs to update his identity plaque, provide a drop of blood and a strand of spiritual awareness, and the sect will refine your life lamp."
Lu Xuan nodded. The so-called life lamp should be able to control one's actions to so extent, but it was a necessary process to beco a pillar of the sect.
One couldn't just enjoy the privileges brought by being an inner sect disciple without fulfilling corresponding duties.
Since he had a clear conscience and wasn't a spy for other sects or involved with demonic forces, entering the sect was rely a way to align himself with a powerful force and quietly cultivate.
"After officially entering the inner sect, you'll start enjoying corresponding benefits."
"Junior Brother Lu can go to the Scripture Pavilion to choose three Foundation Establishnt stage techniques and spells. Based on your cultivation level and contributions to the sect, the sect will also distribute a certain amount of Sword Seals every month."
"If you have proficiency in specific cultivation techniques, you can apply for corresponding resources for free. For example, if you are skilled in alchemy, you can request alchemy materials, formulas, and furnaces from the sect."
"Of course, these are not unlimited. Beyond a certain limit, you'll need to spend spirit stones or Sword Seals to purchase them."
"In addition, entering the inner sect ans you'll have a better cultivation environnt and qualify to enter the sect's secret realms and blessed lands, obtaining various rare cultivation resources."
"Are there dangers or even life-threatening risks when entering the sect's secret realms?"
Lu Xuan asked curiously.
"Since they fall under the sect's jurisdiction, they are regularly organized and cleaned. Any potential threats to inner sect disciples will be eliminated."
Lu Xuan nodded thoughtfully and then asked,
"Senior sister, I heard that after breaking through to the Foundation Establishnt stage, one can choose an independent mountain peak as a cave residence. Is this true?"
"Yes, indeed. It's a basic benefit for becoming an inner sect disciple. You can choose and exclusively occupy one based on the mountain's spiritual veins and spiritual grounds."
Lu Xuan felt relieved. For him, having a mountain peak with various spiritual environnts for farming was more important than any other conditions.
"After breaking through to Foundation Establishnt, what kind of cultivation mode is generally adopted?"
"It's not fixed; it depends on the individual's choice."
"In the Qi cultivation stage, there are senior disciples at the Foundation Establishnt stage who give lectures to outer disciples. However, once you reach the Foundation Establishnt stage, there won't be such one-to-many opportunities."
"In the sect, there are more than twenty Foundation Establishnt senior brothers. Junior Brother Lu can choose whether to join one of them or cultivate independently, or even exchange insights with other peers."
"Among the Foundation Establishnt senior brothers, are there any experts in cultivating spiritual plants or raising spiritual beasts?"
"There don't seem to be specialists in spiritual plants. However, there are three Foundation Establishnt senior brothers with profound achievents in alchemy, and alchemy is closely related to spiritual plants. As for spiritual beasts, I do know one. A Foundation Establishnt senior brother nad Xu Jing raises many high-tier spiritual beasts, closely connected with the sect's protective spiritual beasts."
Lu Xuan nodded, indicating his understanding. He hadn't decided whether to choose a Foundation Establishnt senior brother to follow.
During their conversation, one person among the remaining six in the quiet room walked out, his face darkened, revealing the obvious results of his breakthrough.
Seeing Lu Xuan happily chatting with the female cultivator in the hall, a hint of concealed jealousy flashed in his eyes.
Lu Xuan, seeing this, remained unaffected.
He had just successfully broken through, while this fellow sect mber had evidently failed. It was inappropriate to say anything now; silence was better.
Soon, others erged from the quiet room, almost all with similar reactions as the first person.
Before entering the quiet room, the group had a common goal, encouraging each other. However, coming out, the huge disparity made it difficult for them to control their emotions.
Finally, the stern-faced young man who had attempted breakthroughs for the third ti walked out with heavy steps, his face ashen.
Seeing him like this, Lu Xuan sighed lightly in his heart, feeling even more grateful for his smooth breakthrough.
In the end, among the seven people, only two succeeded in breaking through – Lu Xuan and a delicate female cultivator. The other five had to swallow the bitter fruit of failure.
"Two out of seven, less than thirty percent success rate. Breaking through to Foundation Establishnt is indeed not an easy task. This is the cruel side of the cultivation world."
He sighed inwardly, watching the five figures leaving in disappointnt, strengthening his determination to peacefully farm.
It was thanks to the reward from the light sphere that his cultivation progressed rapidly, allowing him to advance to Foundation Establishnt and enter this new realm.
