Chapter 235: Three Years

Magnetic Fusion Crystal Core!

This was a thing far more precious than the strategic specialty of the Huangtong Minor Realm, the Tier 4 Magnetic Fusion Crystal Stone.

A large Tier 4 mine could produce at most two or three pieces, which could add a wisp of electromagnetic spirituality to a magic treasure, greatly enhancing electromagnetic affinity.

If it hadn't been refined into a semi-finished product by a Nascent Soul-tier refiner, cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage wouldn't even be able to touch it.

"Let's try it."

Jiang Ding probed in a wisp of spiritual sense.

A pressure as heavy as a mountain struck. As soon as his spiritual sense touched it, a gray mist fell, and it was crushed to pieces, with not a shred remaining, and the center of his brow felt incomparably stinging.

"It won't work; the tier is too high."

Jiang Ding's expression changed slightly.

This kind of material could not be utilized during the Qi Condensation stage, even if it had been carefully processed by a Tier 4 refiner.

"There should be changes after Foundation Establishment. When the time comes, merging it into the flying sword and placing it together with the refined electromagnetic cannon of the aerospace fighter, perhaps there will be even more wonderful changes..."

He sealed and put away the jade bottle.

Jiang Ding waved his hand, putting away the various specimens neatly piled into a small mountain, and placed them in his gold pendant. Only then did he look at a jade slip sent over by Han Lin.

"Reporting to Little Martial Uncle-Grandmaster."

"... The matter is progressing smoothly. Relying on the Mortal Supervision Department, and additionally using your name to issue tasks at the Sect's Miscellaneous Affairs Hall to drive sect disciples, the collection progress of various materials is very fast.

It is expected that within three years, all the various low-grade spiritual beasts, spiritual plants, and spiritual insects in the entire Yue Kingdom that we have not yet collected can be gathered..."

"... Encountered disciples of the Blood Slaughter Hall in Dongling Prefecture. The disciples were no match, letting them escape. Over ten thousand people died, and their living souls and essence blood were plundered clean..."

"... There are similar situations in various places. It should be the Blood Slaughter Hall's retaliation for the Nine Heavens Relics incident... Fortunately, the sect responded appropriately, killing and expelling the Blood Slaughter Hall disciples in time."

Jiang Ding was somewhat surprised.

"The injuries caused by the death of the Blood Transformation and Hundred Ghosts avatars shouldn't have healed yet, right? They dare to be like this."

But he was also powerless.

To go out and show his face now would simply make the enemy happy; it was a foolish act.

"Before reaching the Jin Dan stage, don't do such risky things."

He shook his head.

He closed his eyes.

Under the brilliant phantom of the Great Sun in the shade of the blue-gold tree, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the Great Sun gathered.

After a moment, he fell into deep cultivation.

Every day was like this.

Attending class, studying techniques, formations, aerospace combat system theory, taking elective courses on spiritual plants, and then returning to the dormitory and Jin Ling Mountain to cultivate, increasing his magic power bit by bit, constantly approaching the ninth level of Qi Condensation.

He didn't need any elixirs; as long as there was a spiritual vein, he could improve his cultivation step by step, incomparably stable.

In his spare time,

He quenched the sword body with sword-quenching spiritual liquid, honing the pure gold Gang Qi born on the sword intent.

Time flew by,

In the blink of an eye, three years passed.

During this period, An Siyan also successfully switched to cultivating the "Taiyin Sun Scripture," starting to accumulate magic power at the peak of the seventh level of Qi Condensation, seeking Foundation Establishment. The vast majority of students in the class had already successfully switched techniques.

Including Ou Daocheng, who also successfully switched at the end of the third year.

The only ones remaining were the three Five Elements Dao Children.

But they didn't seem to be in a hurry, still methodically accumulating their Immortal Dao foundation, not caring that more than ten years of time had passed just like that.

On this day,

On the edge of the cliff.

Under the tree, amidst the magma, the aura of a youth in green fluctuated for a moment, then stabilized at the ninth level of Qi Condensation.

"Ninth level of Qi Condensation."

"It will take another year to reach the peak."

Jiang Ding opened his eyes.

"I can consider Foundation Establishment."

"I don't need any assistance, but I can't be too casual either; after all, it is a very important beginning... I'll consult with the counselor, Liu Laoshi."

He contacted the counselor, Liu Xiong, on his mobile phone to make an appointment.

This Jin Dan cultivator was not always free; he also had his own cultivation and other matters.

Several days later.

The deep blue tree trembled, shrank, turned into a flying sword, and flew into his sleeve.

Jiang Ding turned into a pale blue streak of light and flew toward the teacher's dormitory tens of kilometers away.

Several minutes later, he stopped in front of a volcano that was constantly erupting with magma and billowing thick smoke.

The smell of sulfur was pungent, and there seemed to be corrosive poisonous gas within it; not a blade of grass grew within a radius of several miles.

"Liu Laoshi is a Fire-attribute cultivator."

Jiang Ding put a protective shield on himself.

"Is that student Jiang Ding? Please come in."

A voice came from afar. The seemingly empty area of several miles slowly unfolded layer upon layer of formations, guiding out a winding magma path.

Jiang Ding felt a chill.

Without a doubt, a Tier 3 formation was set up here. Once someone broke in and refused to retreat after a warning, swaths of Foundation Establishment cultivators and Qi Condensation cultivators would die instantly.

Strictly following the marked magma path, Jiang Ding flew into it.

Once he truly entered, he found that "not a blade of grass grows" was an exaggeration.

Beside the circulating magma river grew many small grasses with lava colors, their spiritual light flickering; they looked very expensive at a glance.

Deep in the magma, there was also a kind of deep red fish with two horns, sharp claws on its abdomen, and a hard shell, swimming happily within.

Following the magma path, he went deep into the middle of the volcano, to the real teacher's dormitory.

The magma here gathered into a lake.

It was about one kilometer in size, and the temperature reached several thousand degrees; one had to keep a protective shield on at all times to survive here.

The sound of clanging was incessant.

In the center of the magma lake, a scruffy middle-aged cultivator who didn't know how many years he hadn't groomed himself was holding a large hammer, flying up and down a huge cannon barrel, clanging and knocking incessantly. Dense runes flashed on the red-hot cannon barrel from time to time.

Jiang Ding's gaze was quickly attracted by this giant cannon.

10089-year model single-seat magic treasure-level main cannon.

Caliber 1972 millimeters, length 113 meters, weight tons. When firing a single hunting missile, it had the possibility of killing a peak Jin Dan cultivator in one strike when installed on a standard model aerospace warship.

"Excuse me, there was a problem with refining a magic treasure recently."

Liu Xiong said embarrassedly.

"You came to ask about Foundation Establishment, right?"

He put down the large iron hammer in his hand and introduced simply: "Regarding Foundation Establishment, the Immortal Sect has the Three Treasures of Foundation Establishment distributed. Whether you can use them or not, it is like this. If you can't use them, you can sell them."

"By the way, for Foundation Establishment with a Jing-grade technique, it is best to go to the relevant secret realm to establish the foundation. For example, the electromagnetic secret realm for your 'Magnetic Fusion Scripture.' Establishing the foundation inside can purify your electromagnetic magic power and make it more compatible with the electromagnetic system."

"There are also some precautions. Foundation Establishment is a process where the cultivator's magic power changes from gaseous to liquid. It is somewhat similar to the natural phenomenon where cold and hot air alternate, thus appearing as raindrops..."

He earnestly pointed out some Foundation Establishment experience.

"You had best read more about the relevant Foundation Establishment experience in the library, and then ask Dinghai Zhenjun. Strive to ensure nothing goes wrong, and don't be impatient."

"Don't be afraid of wasting time. We cultivators are a long-lived species; you need to adapt to this aspect in advance."

"In addition..."

He said a lot, for a long time, all repeatedly explaining some things about Foundation Establishment, fearing he wouldn't understand.

"Understood, thank you, Liu Laoshi."

Several days later, Jiang Ding thanked him and flew out from the middle of the volcano.

There is another chapter tonight.
