Chapter 111: The Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment is Right Before My Eyes!

Thousand Hands Ten Thousand Arms Great Freedom Primordial Spirit Dharma Image Supernatural Ability.

It is one of the most potential-filled and expensive supernatural abilities provided by the Great Golden Light Temple.

The reason it ranks third in the Merit Ranking for supernatural ability exchanges is simply because many of the auxiliary materials required for the top two abilities have already gone extinct, causing their overall value to be forcibly inflated.

In terms of comprehensive capability, it can be said that there is not much difference between the supernatural abilities that can make it into the top ten; it depends more on whether the user is sufficiently compatible.

Su Ping obtained the Divine Ability Seed, originally thinking that even with his current self, he would have to return to the Pot Heaven and study it slowly to have any chance of achieving Entry.

Yet, unexpectedly, the moment the Divine Ability Seed resonated with the Immortal Script, his Divine Sense stirred, and after spontaneously accepting this Divine Ability Seed.

Su Ping suddenly and naturally stepped into the threshold of the supernatural ability.

As his heart moved with his intent, a wisp of Divine Sense combined with Dharma Power actually transformed into a pair of semi-transparent, illusory arms over two meters long.

These arms were as compliant to his will as his Divine Sense, and could even merge into one to form a large hand, thereby increasing power.

"No wonder supernatural abilities generally require Qi Refining Perfection to barely achieve Entry, and one only formally possesses a minor supernatural ability after Foundation Establishment."

"The Thousand Hands Ten Thousand Arms produced by this supernatural ability of mine are actually closely linked to my Divine Sense!"

"I imagine other supernatural abilities are much the same, only the forms of expression differ! This explains why supernatural abilities can be cast instantly; after all, this is just a method of manifesting one's own Divine Sense!"

"Although I am only at the ninth level of Qi Refining, my Divine Sense far exceeds Qi Refining Perfection and has reached the level of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator."

"Perhaps it is because of this foundation that I was able to learn this Thousand Hands Ten Thousand Arms Great Freedom Primordial Spirit Dharma Image supernatural ability so smoothly!"

When Su Ping stood by the Merit Stele in contemplation.

The guest-receiving monk was already stunned.

And behind the guest-receiving monk, the Abbot of this place also walked over, looking at the White Crane Boy played by Su Ping with a complex expression.

"This child is only at the late stage of Qi Refining, yet he can directly achieve Entry into a certain supernatural ability?"

"Looking at the phantom behind him just now, it seems to be a Fomen supernatural ability!"

"Could it be that this child has an affinity with our Fo?"

The Abbot thought to himself, and only after Su Ping recovered his senses did he reveal a smile to congratulate the other party on achieving Entry into the supernatural ability, noting that the barrier to Foundation Establishment had at least been half-passed.

As for the remaining half...

This Abbot extended an olive branch.

It turned out that as long as Su Ping agreed to go to the Great Golden Light Temple with him.

He could guarantee to provide Su Ping with a Foundation Establishment Pill and a Cave Abode located on a Second Tier high-grade Spirit Vein, allowing Su Ping's probability of Foundation Establishment to greatly increase!

This treatment was very generous even for a Cultivator of an ordinary small sect.

Yet, after a slight shock, Su Ping refused the Abbot's kindness without hesitation.

And with a serious expression, he stated from the bottom of his heart:

"The Immortal Crane Zhaoyue Tingfeng Pavilion has never failed me, and I will never fail the Immortal Crane Zhaoyue Tingfeng Pavilion!"

This left the guest-receiving monk behind the Abbot secretly full of admiration.

The Abbot found it difficult to persuade him further, while simultaneously silently noting the great name of the Immortal Crane Zhaoyue Tingfeng Pavilion, thinking that after returning, he must find his senior brother to check where this sect was that could cultivate such an outstanding disciple!

Although their Great Golden Light Temple would not resort to forced buying or selling, they could still cooperate and communicate with the other party, letting the entire pavilion come over to enjoy a better environment and then mutually cultivate and learn; mutual benefit and win-win was still possible.

Having exchanged for the supernatural ability, the primary goal had been completed.

Su Ping no longer delayed, directly bidding farewell and leaving the temple.

Immediately, he left the Jinyun Mountain Market without lingering.

And not long after he sped away.

The Merit Stele of the Jinyun Mountain Market was also relocated to another place.

Furthermore, taking the mountain range where the Jinyun Mountain Market was located as a line, the vast area to the north was also being abandoned in an orderly fashion by the major forces.

Such steps, in the eyes of those with a keen mind, although they did not know what had happened, they held the idea that following the powerful would never be a mistake.

The northern immortal cultivation families and mortal clans also began another southward migration.

Pot Heaven.

After Su Ping obtained the supernatural ability and returned to Linyue Villa, he immersed himself in the process of familiarizing himself with the Thousand Hands Ten Thousand Arms Great Freedom Primordial Spirit Dharma Image supernatural ability.

Manifesting the thousand hands and ten thousand arms is a high-efficiency manifestation transformation of the Divine Sense, a special reaction result that allows it to undergo a qualitative change, and also a high-consumption behavior of energy.

Fortunately, the Spirit Qi concentration in the Pot Heaven had already exceeded that of a Second Tier high-grade Spirit Vein.

While able to sustain the consumption, Su Ping, without Shangpin Filth Qi Danya, could also exchange Fishing Coins for better Mana Spirit Medicine to support the consumption.

Therefore, the refinement of the supernatural ability was as smooth as expected.

Three days later, the moment Su Ping slowly opened his eyes in the Zhaoyue Tingfeng Pavilion and flew to the front courtyard to stretch his body slightly.

Under the gentle and clear sunlight, accompanied by the blowing breeze, an illusory divine figure at least ten meters tall, with a sacred aura, a mysterious and inviolable charm, and emitting a faint Golden Light, emerged behind Su Ping.

The divine figure's facial features could not be seen clearly, and the details on its body were also extremely blurred.

However, on the left and right of its back, semi-transparent illusory arms ranging from several meters to over ten meters long extended out.

Each of these arms could simply change in size and ability, with the smallest being about the same as Su Ping's own hands.

The largest could become several meters long, matching the ten-meter-tall illusory divine statue behind him.

In addition, these supernatural arms could all merge into one, thereby forming a large hand like a mountain, giving the opponent a supernatural version of the Tathagata Palm!

"Hundred Arms Hundred Hands!"

"Is this the limit of the supernatural ability under the Qi Refining stage?"

"The limit of Foundation Establishment is a thousand arms and a thousand hands!"

"And only upon reaching Golden Core can the supernatural ability be considered truly accomplished, and only then will there be a chance to form a true Thousand Hands Ten Thousand Arms Great Freedom Primordial Spirit Dharma Image!"

"And if one really wants to cultivate a Dharma Image, such as the Ashura Faxiang or the Compassionate Bodhisattva Dharma Image provided for reference by the Great Golden Light Temple, one must be at the Nascent Soul stage, right?"

Su Ping felt this state of operating the supernatural ability at full power, and soon felt his Dharma Power drying up and his Essence Spirit and Qi becoming exhausted.

After maintaining it for five seconds, Su Ping returned to his original state and slowly landed.

"I can maintain it for five seconds at full power, after which I must drink medicine."

"Furthermore, the Divine Sense within Essence, Spirit, and Qi cannot be restored by drinking medicine, so even if I drink it, I can only extend it by another five seconds, otherwise it will damage my Divine Soul, which is not worth the loss."

"However... five seconds should be enough!"

"Others use a hundred arms and a hundred hands to simultaneously use Dharma Artifacts, Talismans, and Flying Swords."

"Possessing Water Blue Star as a logistics base, I can fully coordinate with my own Dharma Image to prepare modern weapons to hand over to these arms to use."

"While the power is not bad, the key is that there is no need to consume extra Dharma Power to activate those Dharma Artifacts, Talismans, and Flying Swords."

"At least at the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages, this configuration of mine should have the advantage!"

"And this is still without Foundation Establishment; after Foundation Establishment, my Divine Sense will improve again, and my endurance should also be able to extend!"

"Let's set a small goal first: let the Dharma Image be able to be maintained for over a minute!"

Su Ping learned the supernatural ability.

He also gradually gained many insights into Foundation Establishment that he did not have before through the interactive changes between the supernatural ability and Divine Sense.

In the blink of an eye, another week passed.

After finishing the fishing attempts at two locations, and then gorging himself on dozens of catties of Spirit Rice and False Dragon Blood Yuru.

Su Ping suddenly felt something in his heart, realizing that both his Body Tempering and Qi Refining had reached the peak of the ninth level, with no room for further improvement.

And according to the cultivation method description, that layer of Divine Soul membrane that should have loosened at this time did not happen because Su Ping had already obtained Divine Sense.

However, Su Ping still knew that he had reached the perfection realm that his peers in the Outer Sect spoke of as unreachable.

If it were anyone else, they would next have to diligently train their various skills for the sake of Foundation Establishment, or even use the help of a powerful Divine Soul to engage in combat to earn Spirit Stones, accumulate experience and Merit, and then try to learn a supernatural ability suitable for themselves.

As long as the supernatural ability can reach Entry, one is considered a leader among Qi Refining Perfection Cultivators, with a chance to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill or other Foundation Establishment Spirit Objects, thereby gaining the opportunity for Foundation Establishment.

But as for these things, Su Ping either already had them, or... Su Ping did not need them!

The function of the Foundation Establishment Pill is on one hand to increase the success rate of Foundation Establishment, and on the other hand, it can save one's life after a failed Foundation Establishment.

And without the help of a Foundation Establishment Pill, a Qi Refining Perfection Cultivator can still perform Foundation Establishment on their own.

It is just that the failure rate of such Foundation Establishment has always remained high.

Especially in the current Cultivation World, apart from that batch of top-tier true transmission seeds, who can guarantee that they have never eaten problematic Demon Beast meat and Pills for most of their lives?

And this, in turn, affected the breakthrough probability of Foundation Establishment.

Consequently, the result is that over these past thousand years, not being able to perform Foundation Establishment without a Foundation Establishment Pill has almost become a kind of common sense for most lower-to-middle-tier Cultivators.

It is only in Immortal Sect novels that examples of peerless geniuses successfully performing Foundation Establishment on their own appear, and while the audience clicks their tongues in wonder, they do not question it further.

After all, the founding patriarchs of the existing major sects are all people who performed Foundation Establishment on their own in their documented records.

Whoever dares to oppose this is questioning the records of the major sects!

Moreover, performing Foundation Establishment on one's own does indeed have more advantages compared to taking a Foundation Establishment Pill.

It is rumored that the foundation is more solid, and the Divine Soul and physical body can also receive more benefits.

Therefore, in rumors, the true transmissions of top-tier Immortal Sects almost all perform Foundation Establishment on their own.

However, this rumor has never received any response from any Immortal Sect.

But after Su Ping possessed Divine Sense, he vaguely felt that this should be true.

Only by performing Foundation Establishment on one's own can one maximize the benefits of a successful Foundation Establishment!

And relying on Purification Spirit Medicine and Life Spirit Medicine, he is not afraid of the punishment for failing Foundation Establishment at all!

So even if the probability is a bit low, he can still give it a try by relying on the number of attempts.

Furthermore, Su Ping silently calculated his advantages: Divine Sense not inferior to Foundation Establishment, the three-tenths Ten Directions Annihilation Body, and the supernatural ability that had already reached Entry.

Plus, a very critical point is that he had taken Purification Spirit Medicine, having already purified all the Evil Qi and physical defects accumulated from Pills and food.

In terms of physical purity, he is afraid he is even a little better than those true transmissions!

After all, under their day-to-day accumulation of cultivation, their bodies will more or less develop some imperceptible hidden injuries.

This is not something that can be avoided just by not eating Pills below the high grade.

Therefore, except for his Spirit Root and state of mind, Su Ping felt that he far surpassed his peers in all other aspects.

If he still couldn't successfully perform Foundation Establishment on his own like this, then that would be too un-Immortal!

Su Ping went to Water Blue Star and spent three days traveling through more than a hundred famous mountains and rivers.

Finally, he arrived at the ends of the earth, and after watching a sunset sink into the sea.

Su Ping felt something in his heart and returned to the Cultivation World.

Then, after transforming into the appearance of the White Crane Boy, he went straight to Yunshan Market.

He prepared to perform Foundation Establishment here, thereby creating the image of a new Foundation Establishment Cultivator who was a Loose Cultivator that had successfully performed Foundation Establishment alone.

After all, a lucky Loose Cultivator whom everyone watched successfully perform Foundation Establishment and a suddenly appearing outsider Foundation Establishment Cultivator are completely different in the eyes of the surrounding large and small forces!

After spending Spirit Stones to get the best Cave Abode available for rent in Yunshan Market.

Su Ping moved in and activated one Array after another to shield the outside from detecting his aura.

Outside the Cave Abode.

A portion of Cultivators learned the news that someone was in seclusion.

At first, no one cared; after Yunshan Market was taken over by the Artifact Heart Sect, more and more outside Cultivators had been coming over anyway.

It is very normal for someone to suddenly feel something in their heart and need to go into seclusion for enlightenment.

Only!

As time gradually passed.

After the aura in the Cave Abode where Su Ping was staying, which vaguely matched the heavens and earth, could not even be hidden by the Arrays.

They judged that this was someone who had already reached Qi Refining Perfection and was preparing for Foundation Establishment!

Immediately, it attracted the attention of many people in Yunshan Market.

After all, while it cannot be said that there are no Cultivators who go to the Market to attempt Foundation Establishment without the assistance of a sect, they are extremely rare.

Furthermore, such Cultivators mostly end in failure.

"No records; they are not from the immortal cultivation families within the territory of the Chiyuan Immortal Sect."

"Nor are they Cultivators from any well-known major sect."

"Interesting, could it be a Qi Refining Perfection practitioner who emerged from some obscure, minor sect?"

"The territory has not been peaceful lately; it is possible they are a remnant or straggler who fled here after their sect was destroyed in Nanhuang."

"That is indeed possible! I heard that the Shuiyue Gate, which had Foundation Establishment experts, was destroyed, and we even received a notice to hunt down the remnants."

"There have been quite a few smaller sects capable of producing Qi Refining Perfection practitioners that were destroyed by Evil Spirits during this period."

"Indeed, the Evil Spirits have been increasing in number lately..."

Speaking of Evil Spirits, the representatives of the various shops in Yunshan Market all turned somber.

Then, they looked toward the Cave Abode where Su Ping was, harboring a glimmer of expectation.

At a time like this, having one more rootless Foundation Establishment expert to help would always be better.

However... even if they luckily obtained a Foundation Establishment Pill or Spirit Object, the chance of a Cultivator without the protection and assistance of a sect succeeding in Foundation Establishment is still too low!

Some immortal cultivation families with good foundations even secretly felt that the other party was being extremely unwise.

Since the Qi Refining Perfection practitioner has no ties to a sect, why not come to them, these major families, for help?

At most, they would just have him marry two or three women from their main family, and after having two or three children, they would provide the manpower and resources to assist with Foundation Establishment.

Wouldn't that be better than the current situation?

Inside the Cave Abode.

"This is the third time!"

Su Ping consumed the Purification Spirit Medicine to clear away the aftereffects caused by the failed Foundation Establishment.

Su Ping had failed his previous two Foundation Establishment attempts, but he discovered that perhaps due to his Ten Directions Annihilation Body and his clean body, the injuries he sustained from the failed Foundation Establishment were not considered serious.

Normally, even without taking medicine, they could be slowly healed.

However, Su Ping did not have the time to recuperate slowly, so he chose to drink the medicine to resolve it and take advantage of the failure experience to try again.

"However, I have a feeling that this time... there will be no more accidents!"

As Su Ping practiced until he was proficient, he easily entered the state of his third Foundation Establishment attempt.

Su Ping discovered that this time, his heart had become exceptionally calm.

Then, it was as if he had received some kind of revelation.

Su Ping knew that the time had come!

The breakthrough to Foundation Establishment was right before his eyes!
