Chapter 192: Three for Mortal, Six for Earth, Nine for Heaven!

The bright moon hung high, unsparingly sprinkling water-like moonlight upon the mortal world; beneath the moonlight, the Yu Fu was shrouded in mist, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi converged here, countless people watched in shock and doubt from afar.

Inside the secret realm, Yu Changsheng's breakthrough had also reached the most critical moment; the Qi Refining realm began to waver, the intent of Foundation Establishment faintly poised to erupt.

Two Foundation Establishment Pills entered his belly, nearly boundless Spirit Power surged inside, the Sea of Qi also continuously expanded, and at its center, the Spirit Platform rapidly took shape.

Time passed bit by bit; another Incense Stick Time passed, Yu Changsheng's forehead was already covered in sweat, and the Spiritual Energy Vortex around his body also slowed, as if encountering resistance, running out of steam.

And the Spirit Platform Shadow behind him had also been eighty percent constructed, yet stalled; that last little bit simply could not be completed.

"No good, still not enough. If this continues, the breakthrough will fail."

Yu Changsheng exhaled, his frown deepening; sensing the formless resistance within his body, he pursed his lips in judgment, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.

A thought moved, and from his pack another Foundation Establishment Pill was taken out; besides that, the Shattering Mirror Pill gifted by Shen Xingchen was also taken out, and both were swallowed by Yu Changsheng simultaneously.

"Boom—!!!"

"Crack……"

The two Pills entered his belly; instantly, heavenly thunder rumbled within Yu Changsheng's body, another vast torrent of Spiritual Qi swept through, the previously stagnant Sea of Qi vortex accelerated its rotation once more, the Spirit Platform Shadow reconstructing.

In merely a moment, it had already reached ninety-nine percent completion.

Yu Tairan at the side was somewhat restless, fixedly watching Yu Changsheng's every move, his heart in his throat.

"He has already taken three Foundation Establishment Pills…… such enormous Medicinal Power, can Changsheng bear it……"

"Or rather, how many layers of Spirit Platform does Changsheng intend to build……"

Drop by drop, sweat slowly fell from Yu Tairan's cheeks; suppressing the shock in his heart, Yu Tairan clenched his fists tight, took a deep breath, his eyes holding both worry and anticipation, gazing at Yu Changsheng with bright, shining eyes.

The medicine effect of three Foundation Establishment Pills was astonishing; in no time, that sensation of fullness within Yu Changsheng's body swept through once again.

And the Shattering Mirror Pill's efficacy was undeniable; the formless Bottleneck Yu Changsheng had still felt was shattered in a mere instant.

The next instant, the ninety-nine percent complete Spirit Platform blazed with light, the final bit filled in the blink of an eye, radiance flowing, suppressing the Void, a sense of perfection naturally emanating.

This Spirit Platform differed from Yu Tairan's; its entire body was azure-white, clouds and mist swirling, the faint sounds of Dragon Roar and phoenix cries drifting forth, connecting Heaven and Earth, linking the Void.

"Done!"

Yu Tairan's spirit lifted, his frown relaxing somewhat.

Soon, after this First Layer Spirit Platform was built, it did not end; on this foundation, the Second Layer Spirit Platform was also swiftly completed without obstruction, perfectly natural, emitting an aura unique to Yu Changsheng.

Immediately after, the Third Layer Spirit Platform began construction, and at this moment, the Pill power within Yu Changsheng's body had only consumed less than three tenths. "Three layers of Spirit Platform…… the next step is to transcend the Mortal grade; I wonder how many layers of Spirit Platform Changsheng can ultimately build??"

The anticipation in Yu Tairan's heart also reached its highest peak at this moment.

Generally speaking, as long as the Spirit Platform is successfully built, even if only one layer, it already counts as successful Foundation Establishment; it's just that this kind of Foundation Establishment is the weakest.

Foundation Establishment is the entry foundation of Cultivation, and also an exceptionally crucial link; Foundation Establishment builds the foundation of the Great Dao, while the Spirit Platform is the vessel.

Therefore, regarding Foundation Establishment Spirit Platforms, there is such a classification: every three layers is a watershed; three layers and below are all called Mortal-grade Spirit Platforms, signifying that their future immortal path will be ordinary, difficult to achieve anything, stopping right there.

Four layers to six layers are called Earth-Grade Spirit Platforms; relatively decent, most Foundation Establishment Cultivators possess this aptitude; if they have Opportunity later, breaking through to Golden Core also has hope.

Seven layers and above can be called Heaven-Grade Spirit Platforms; such Cultivators are the more talented batch among Cultivators, comparatively rare.

Later, barring accidents, smoothly Cultivating Golden Core is no problem, and they can even charge toward higher Realms; every one is a key nurturing target of Sect forces.

So, the Foundation Establishment Realm is very special; it is Entry, yet also determines how far the future road goes; the number of Spirit Platforms also determines how far one can go in the Foundation Establishment Realm; generally, however many Spirit Platforms one can condense, at most one can Cultivate to that many layers of Foundation Establishment.

Those with three Spirit Platforms, without extra Opportunity, can at most Cultivate to Foundation Establishment Third Layer — that is their limit; attempting to break through to Golden Core at that point is no different from a fool's dream.

Those with seven Spirit Platforms, however, can Cultivate to Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer in this Realm; whether Combat Power or foundation, they cannot be compared to three Spirit Platforms; breaking through to Golden Core then is naturally much easier than for Foundation Establishment Third Layer.

At this moment, Yu Changsheng's three Spirit Platforms were already built; if he stopped now, it would be called Mortal-grade Spirit Platform Foundation Establishment; if he builds one more Spirit Platform, he can transcend the Mortal grade, condensing an Earth-Grade Spirit Platform.

Three Spirit Platforms forged complete, Yu Changsheng's body trembled; as his Cultivation Base naturally broke through, he also sensed a thread of resistance.

"Only three Spirit Platforms? No, far from the Limit!"

Yu Changsheng gritted his teeth, pouring his mind into the Spirit Platform; the next moment, the Inner Landscape shook, the three Spirit Pets within raised their heads, as if sensing something, all crying out, rays of brilliant light spreading from atop them, crossing the Inner Landscape, connecting to Yu Changsheng's Fourth Layer Spirit Platform currently under construction.

"Hum……"

The Spirit Platform trembled; the originally slow speed rapidly accelerated; in no time, that Fourth Layer Spirit Platform was instantly completed; looking closely, at its center, the virtual shadows of the three Spirit Beasts were branded within, and under a flash of light, it gained a few more degrees of natural harmony.

The moment it appeared, this Fourth Layer Spirit Platform blazed with light, erected atop the three Spirit Platforms below, light flowing and connecting, even causing the original three Spirit Platforms to be sublimated, transcending Mortal to become Earth.

And this was not over; as Yu Changsheng's aura grew even more profound, the Fifth Layer Spirit Platform Shadow also began construction; Yu Changsheng only felt his flesh suddenly heat up, streams of heat surging from his entire body's four limbs and hundred bones, pouring into the Fifth Layer Spirit Platform under construction, coating it with a faint layer of Blood Shadow.

Immediately after, the Sixth Layer Spirit Platform also began construction; this time, Yu Changsheng felt his Divine Sense suddenly sting; the Refine Spirit Technique automatically operated, Divine Sense transforming into purple-black lightning, penetrating deep into the Sixth Layer Spirit Platform, forming a base.

Instantly, the Sixth Layer Spirit Platform completed construction amidst gestation; its entire body azure-white mixed with purple, fine threads of black lightning coiling around it, adding a few more points of mysteriousness.
