Chapter 118: Chapter 48: Breakthrough!

Zhou Xun focused his gaze intently, seeing two genuine pills!

For a first attempt at refining, he was quite satisfied with this result.

One should know that even Master Hongyu, a Tier Two High-Grade, could only produce three pills from one furnace at best.

He took out a few Low-Grade Spirit Grasses, using the Spring Condensation Technique to extract the Spirit Medicine Essence.

He took out a Foundation Establishment Pill and merged it with the Spirit Medicine Essence.

A few faint glimmers flowed around, visibly enhancing the quality of the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Genuine, Premium, Surpassing Premium.

Until it could rise no more.

The entire pill exhibited a smooth and flowing aura.

Zhou Xun held it in his hand, examining it closely.

”The quality of this Foundation Establishment Pill surpasses the premium level, likely increasing the foundation establishment chance by forty percent!”

Twice that of a genuine Foundation Establishment Pill.

If others found out, it would probably cause a sensation.

Luckily, this Foundation Establishment Pill was for his own use, so there was no need to worry about that matter.

He carefully packed the two pills separately and attached a Sealing Spirit Talisman to prevent the loss of medicinal power.

...

In the following days, he returned to a routine of cultivation, talisman making, alchemy, array study, and body refining.

As for the Divination Technique, his current cultivation level made it impossible for him to progress in this skill; he could only pursue it after a breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three years had passed!

This year, Zhou Xun was already thirty-seven years old.

Two years ago, Zhou Xun had already increased his Spirit Root Sensitivity to the Middle-Grade Extreme, which is thirty-nine points.

Further absorption of Tier Two Spirit Medicine Essence had ceased to enhance his aptitude.

Zhou Xun speculated that only by absorbing Quasi-Third Tier Spirit Medicine Essence could he continue to improve.

Quasi-Third Tier corresponds in cultivation to a Fake Pill Cultivator.

Given his current status, obtaining treasures of this level was extremely challenging.

Besides that, the progress of Zhou Xun’s Body Refining Technique was advancing steadily.

Only a small portion of the Frost Crystal had been consumed.

Nearly five taels remained.

This large amount was enough for him to cultivate to the Fifth Layer.

Therefore, in the short term, Zhou Xun didn’t have to worry about auxiliary materials for cultivating the Hundred Veins Body Refining Technique.

He could proceed step by step.

As for his Alchemy Technique, it had reached the peak of Tier Two Low-Grade.

He now mastered the refining methods for several kinds of Tier Two Low-Grade Spirit Pills.

This resulted from numerous cultivators seeking him out for pill refining after he announced his breakthrough to Tier Two.

By helping others refine pills, his alchemy skills improved rapidly.

”Back when Master Yun Ku broke through to Foundation Establishment, his alchemy skills also reached the Tier Two Middle-Grade level. I wonder if I can do the same!” thought Zhou Xun.

Master Yun Ku had similarly become a Tier Two Alchemist while still at Qi Refining cultivation.

Meanwhile, his Talisman Making Technique was also at the Tier Two Low-Grade level, but its progress was catching up to his alchemy skills.

This had to do with the ten sets of Tier Two Demon Beast materials he obtained.

All the beast hides of these Tier Two Demon Beasts had been refined by Zhou Xun into Tier Two Talisman Paper.

As for the demon blood, it had been prepared into Tier Two Spiritual Ink.

With a wealth of materials to practice with, his talisman-making skills naturally advanced rapidly.

He had thus accumulated a large batch of over sixty Tier Two Low-Grade Talismans.

Such a number of talismans would even make a Late-Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator keep well away.

However, his greatest progress had been in the Path of Array.

He was now a Tier One High-Grade Array Master.

This justified the extensive time he spent on the Path of Array over these years.

”Once my Array Technique reaches Tier Two Low-Grade, I can attempt to break the restrictions of the Hundred Savage Mountain ruins!”

Having studied the Divination Technique, he vaguely sensed that the opportunity within those ruins was crucial for his future.

Not to be missed!

...

Inside the Cultivation Room.

Zhou Xun slowly opened his eyes.

Feeling the surging mana within him, he felt a wave of comfort in his heart.

Since returning from Hundred Savage Mountain, Zhou Xun had mostly kept to himself.

After three years of cultivation, he finally reached the end of the Qi Cultivation Stage today, reaching the Peak Qi Refining.

The next step was Foundation Establishment.

Now, at thirty-seven, it was a perfect time for a breakthrough.

....

Over the next few days, Zhou Xun paused his cultivation.

He began to adjust his mindset.

He experienced worldly affairs, visited friends, and traveled around.

Master Chuyun’s Cave Mansion.

”Brother Zhou, you... reached Peak Qi Refining!” Master Chuyun was greatly surprised.

”Just got lucky and made some breakthroughs!” Zhou Xun said humbly.

Ever since Zhou Xun came to White Cloud Immortal City, his rapid progress in cultivation left many stupefied.

In just a few years, he advanced from the Seventh-Layer Qi Refining to Peak Qi Refining and now even had the qualifications to attempt Foundation Establishment.

Given his current age and rank as a Tier Two Alchemist,

He had a great chance of becoming a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

”In a few years, I’ll probably have to call you Elder Zhou!” Master Chuyun exclaimed.

”Haha, I’ll take that as a good omen!” After spending half a day there, Zhou Xun bid farewell.

Then he wandered through various corners of White Cloud Immortal City and ventured out to admire nature’s beauty.

Finally, after seven days, his mind was adjusted to a state of Perfection.

...

He immediately went to the Cave Mansion rental hall in White Cloud Immortal City.

Spending several hundred Spirit Stones, he rented a Tier Two High-Grade Cave Mansion.

Noticing Zhou Xun’s Peak Qi Refining cultivation, the steward immediately understood he was aiming to break into the Foundation Establishment Stage.

This was something he had seen many times before.

To increase their chances of breakthrough, those at the pinnacle of Qi Refining would rent such a Tier Two High-Grade Cave Mansion if they could.

In fact, these Tier Two High-Grade Cave Mansions being available was not unrelated to this.

After paying the Spirit Stones, Zhou Xun received a token.

”Jia Wu Cave Mansion!”

”I wish you success in Foundation Establishment, young friend!” the steward congratulated with a smile as he left.

”Thank you, elder!” Zhou Xun nodded.

Then he went to Jia Wu Cave Mansion.

The Spiritual Energy concentration in the mansion was extremely high, more than sufficient for Zhou Xun’s Foundation Establishment breakthrough.

”The Cave Mansion is very simple, with only one cultivation room. It seems specifically for Qi Refining Cultivators to use for Foundation Establishment!”

There were also several reminders for Foundation Establishment engraved on the surrounding walls of the Cave Mansion.

These were deliberately put there by White Cloud Immortal City.

”What a considerate White Cloud Immortal City!” Zhou Xun praised.

This approach by White Cloud Immortal City to win over future Foundation Establishment Cultivators filled Zhou Xun with goodwill.

Next, Zhou Xun checked the Cave Mansion’s array.

A Tier Two Low-Grade Array included Tier Two sound insulation restrictions, and before its expiration, the array could not be opened from the outside.

It fully met the need of cultivators to not be disturbed during breakthroughs.

Nonetheless, Zhou Xun still laid down the Water Curtain Celestial Splendor Array around this Cave Mansion.

After completing all these preparations, Zhou Xun sat cross-legged on the cushion.

Then he took out the Foundation Establishment Pill that surpassed the premium level and placed it beside him.

Recalling the various experiences since he came across, Zhou Xun’s eyes shone brightly.

”With my Middle-Grade Ultimate Spirit Root, I inherently have a twenty percent chance of breakthrough!”

”Coupled with my innate Divine Sense, the Hundred Veins Body Refining Technique, and a Foundation Establishment Pill surpassing premium!”

”If I don’t succeed in Foundation Establishment, who will!”

A powerful sense of confidence enveloped his heart.

Without hesitation, he started.

He opened the medicine bottle beside him and swallowed the Foundation Establishment Pill in one gulp.

Then he began operating the cultivation technique, starting his breakthrough.
