Infinite: 10,000x Cashback System In Cultivation World

After leaving the mission hall, Yu Liang headed straight toward the Pavilion. His current cultivation had already reached the late stage of Qi Condensation Realm and if he wanted to break through to the next realm, he needed a proper cultivation method first.

After showing Elder Shen’s token to the elder guarding the entrance, he was granted access to the second floor.

Rows upon rows of jade slips and ancient books filled the shelves, containing techniques ranging from sword arts and movement techniques to body refining methods and various secret arts.

Yu Liang barely spared them a glance. Those things could wait. Right now, his only priority was finding a cultivation method suitable for breaking through. He walked directly toward the section containing Tier 2 cultivation methods and began examining the jade slips one after another.

There were several choices available.

[ Scarlet Flame Scripture ]

Attribute: Fire

Grade: Tier 2 Mid Grade

Description: A cultivation method that condenses pure Fire Qi within the dantian through repeated circulation. Spiritual energy cultivated through this method possesses strong destructive properties, making it suitable for cultivators who favor explosive attacks.

[ Mountain Heavy Earth Scripture ]

Attribute: Earth

Grade: Tier 2 Low Grade

Description: A cultivation method that emphasizes the accumulation and purification of Earth Qi. Each circulation gradually strengthens the foundation of the cultivator, producing dense and stable spiritual energy.

[ Gale Cloud Scripture ]

Attribute: Wind

Grade: Tier 2 High Grade

Description: A cultivation method based on the circulation of Wind Qi through the meridians. The spiritual energy produced is light and agile, allowing cultivators to circulate Qi rapidly and improves the efficiency of the cultivation.

[ Azure Thunder Method ]

Attribute: Lightning

Grade: Tier 2 High Grade

Description: A powerful cultivation method that tempers spiritual energy with Lightning Qi. Cultivators who master it can produce extremely explosive spiritual energy, greatly increasing the power of offensive attack.

Finally, Yu Liang’s gaze settled on one of the method.

[ Water Flowing Profound Scripture ]

Attribute: Water

Grade: Tier 2 Peak Grade

Description: A cultivation method that follows the principle of flowing water. Spiritual energy is circulated continuously through the meridians, gradually becoming purer and more abundant with each cycle. The method emphasizes stability and smooth Qi circulation.

Unlike the some of aggressive methods from before, this technique focused on the continuous circulation of spiritual energy and Its greatest advantage was stability. The spiritual energy cultivated by the method was gentle and adaptable, flowing through the meridians like water while gradually accumulating within the cultivator’s dantian. It was especially suitable for cultivators possessing water attributed spiritual roots.

After reading through its description, Yu Liang nodded. ’This one should work.’

He took the jade slip and left the Scripture Pavilion without wasting any more time. Returning to his cave residence, Yu Liang closed the door behind him and walked to the center of the cultivation room. He sat down cross legged on the meditation mat, placed the jade slip against his forehead, and slowly closed his eyes.

The contents of the Water Flowing Profound Scripture immediately appeared in his mind.

It was time to begin his breakthrough.

He had already reached the peak of the Qi Condensation realm long ago. The endless resources poured into body tempering had only pushed his foundation even deeper, making his qi denser and his meridians wider. Now, only one final barrier remained before he stepped into an entirely new stage of cultivation.

The Foundation Establishment Realm.

This Realm represented a qualitative leap in a cultivator’s journey. At this stage, the scattered qi within the dantian condenses into a solid foundation, forming a stable core that would store and circulate more spiritual energy. The body undergoes a complete tempering, shedding impurities and strengthening every organ, bone and meridian.

Cultivators who successfully establish their foundation gains extended lifespans, sharper senses and the ability to wield techniques with far greater power and control.

But Breaking through was never simple.

It requirs perfect harmony between body, Qi, and mind. Most cultivators preparation take years, gathering rare materials, refining their techniques, and seeking guidance from elders. Even then, failure rates remained painfully high. A single mistake during the process could cause Qi deviation, crippling the meridians or even shattering the dantian entirely. The heavenly tribulation that sometimes accompanied the breakthrough added another layer of deadly risk.

Yet, the rewards justifies every hardship.

Outside the sect, Foundation Establishment cultivators stood as true powerhouses. Low level Foundation Establishment experts could easily establish their own small sects, command respect across cities, or even rule over minor kingdoms as supreme existences.

Mid level ones dominates regional affairs, while those at the peak of the realm could shake entire provinces with a single strike. Only Core Formation ancestors sat clearly above them, forming the true apex of the cultivation world. For someone at the bottom of the ladder, stepping into Foundation Establishment was like crossing from mortal to immortal, granting authority and strength that ordinary Qi Condensation Realm cultivators could never dream of matching.

Yu Liang took a deep breath and sat cross legged in the center of the cave once more. He had already made all necessary preparations. From his storage ring, he carefully took out a small jade box. Inside rested a single pill that radiated dense, pure spiritual energy, a Top Grade Foundation Establishment Realm Pill.

This was no ordinary medicine. Refined from rare spiritual herbs and High Tier beast cores, it contained enough concentrated energy to forcefully push a peak Qi Condensation Realm cultivator across the threshold. The pill’s surface glowed with faint golden lines, with 3 pill patterns, proof of its flawless quality.

Without hesitation, Yu Liang swallowed the pill.

The moment it entered his stomach, a violent surge of spiritual energy erupted inside him. It felt like a raging river breaking through a dam, flooding every meridian and crashing against the thin membrane separating Qi Condensation Realm from Foundation Establishment Realm. His body trembled violently as the energy tore through impurities, forcing them out through his pores in thick black streams.

Pain exploded in every cell as removing impurities were never a simple process.

His dantian burned as if set ablaze, the Qi inside spinning faster and faster, compressing into a denser and denser mass.

Sweat poured down from his face.

Blood leaked from the corners of his mouth, yet he clenched his teeth and circulated the method with all his strength.

The Body Cultivation helped preventing the violent energy from tearing him apart.

In that process time lost all its meaning. Hours blurred together as the spiritual energy continued its relentless assault. Yu Liang’s consciousness flickered on the edge of collapse, but he held on, guiding the flood of power toward the final barrier. The blockade grew thinner and thinner, finally cracks started to appear under the overwhelming pressure.

Then, with a earth shaking crack inside his body, the barrier shattered completely.

Almost instantly pure, refined spiritual energy flooded in his newly formed foundation. His dantian stabilized into a solid core, glowing with soft golden light. Every meridian in his body widened and strengthened to an extraordinary degree.

His senses sharpened dramatically, he could now hear the faint rustle of leaves outside the cave from miles away, he can now also feel the subtle flow of Qi in the surrounding air. His body felt lighter yet infinitely more powerful, as though he had shed an old, fragile shell.

Yu Liang slowly opened his eyes. A faint aura of authority radiated from him. It was completely unconscious, but the presence of a True Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator was unmistakable.

At that exact moment, a familiar notifications rang in his mind.
