Chapter 15: The So-Called Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment
Chapter 15: The So-Called Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment
Xu Ren Shan cleared his throat, addressing the disciples below. "In your opinion, what is the most precious Foundation Establishment Spirit Artifact in the world?"
He gazed down at them, exuding an air of enlightenment.
"Is it the Nine Heavens Thunderfruit?" a female disciple tentatively asked.
Xu Ren Shan replied, "The Nine Heavens Thunderfruit, according to legends, can only be born in the Nine Heavens Thunder Domain. It is an above-top-grade Foundation Establishment Spirit Artifact, extremely rare in the world. However, in terms of being the most precious, it still falls short."
"Star Tears?"
"Primordial Essence?"
"Supreme Bone?"
The disciples on the stage suggested various extremely precious Foundation Establishment Spirit Artifacts.
These Foundation Establishment Spirit Artifacts were all rare treasures mentioned in legends.
Xu Ren Shan turned to Qi Yuan, who had been deep in thought, and asked, "Qi Yuan, what do you think?"
Qi Yuan replied, "Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment... since it's the Heavenly Dao, could it be related to the Heavenly Dao itself?"
Xu Ren Shan nodded in approval. "You're right. The Foundation Establishment Spirit Artifact required for Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment should be..."
At that moment, Qi Yuan felt as if his mind had suddenly been enlightened, like a revelation.
He felt as if his brain had grown!
He was about to have an epiphany!
Qi Yuan's face lit up with excitement, his expression bordering on madness.
"I've understood! So, this is what Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment is all about."
Qi Yuan solemnly performed the master-disciple ritual towards Xu Ren Shan and then took his leave.
The moment of inspiration was fleeting, and he hurried back to record his realization.
Xu Ren Shan watched this scene with a smile.
He continued his explanation for the other Divine Light Sect disciples: "There is a wondrous thing in this world called the Celestial Pulse, rumored to be a strand of energy that overflows from the Heavenly Dao's descent. Obtaining it allows one to forge the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment."
These were the things Xu Ren Shan had learned from ancient texts.
"The Celestial Pulse is the most precious Foundation Establishment Spirit Artifact."
...
On Seven-Colored Peak, Qi Yuan sat in a daze, his brain unusually active.
"Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment..."
"So, the so-called Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment is to use the Heavenly Dao as the Foundation Establishment Spirit Artifact."
Qi Yuan had his epiphany, and his brain expanded. If not for his overly ambitious goal, perhaps the Heavenly Dao of this world would directly bestow its blessing, allowing him to achieve the Five Flowers Gathering.
The Heavenly Dao was too fond of him, even giving him two extra flowers on top of the Three Flowers.
Qi Yuan lifted his head, gazing at the sky vault with a puzzled expression. "But... how do I refine the Heavenly Dao into my Foundation Establishment Spirit Artifact?"
"I wonder what the Heavenly Dao tastes like, and if it's even edible."
Unfortunately, no one responded to his question.
"Speaking of the Heavenly Dao, I seem to have obtained a fragment of it in the Xuan Yuan Prohibition. Can this be used as a Foundation Establishment Spirit Artifact?"
Qi Yuan's spirits lifted, and he discovered something extraordinary about that game jade slip.
To Qi Yuan, that game jade slip was more than just a game.
However, he was lazy and didn't want to think too deeply.
"It's been a while since I last played. Let's start!"
With that thought, Qi Yuan entered the game once again.
As usual, Qi Yuan found himself buried in the ground upon entering.
He opened the chat interface and saw a message from Jin Li.
A smile crept onto his face. "I didn't lie to you. The Xuan Yuan Prohibition is now in my control. Feel free to take whatever you want from it."
He was being quite generous.
Qi Yuan had already taken the most precious items from the Xuan Yuan Prohibition.
As for those so-called Spirit Herbs, they were merely snacks to him.
He didn't want the ones that didn't taste good.
Moreover, those Spirit Herbs were less effective for him than killing a single monster.
He replied, "Those Spirit Herbs are of average value. The most valuable things inside are those ferocious beasts. Killing one grants a lot of experience, making leveling up fast."
However, after sending the message, Qi Yuan regretted it a little.
That Jin Li was probably of a lower level and couldn't defeat those monsters.
"When you have time, come to the Yi Guan Prohibition. I'll take you to grind monsters. There are so many of them here."
"Qi Yuan finished sending his message and left the pit.
Now, he was already at level 82.
However, within the Yi Guan Prohibition, he still needed to be cautious.
The minor monsters of Xuan Yuan Prohibition fought individually, unlike the Yi Guan Demons.
'Looks like it's time to grind the game again,' Qi Yuan muttered to himself.
His cultivation in the game would provide weak feedback to his real body.
So, he continued to level up in the game.
At the same time, there was another issue—he could obtain rewards after clearing dungeons.
Heavenly Dao Fragments were what he desired most at the moment.
Those were his Foundation Establishment Spirit Artifacts.
With this in mind, he started to work hard on monster-slaying.
'Yi Guan Demons often appear in groups, so I need to find and deal with them when they're alone,' Qi Yuan thought.
When Yi Guan Demons gathered, their numbers were overwhelming, and he would be trapped and killed.
Once, while in Xuan Yuan Prohibition, Qi Yuan was injured, and for several days, his game character's condition was poor, affecting his real-life state as well.
So, he had to be careful.
'Stealth!'
Qi Yuan entered stealth mode.
At level 82, his combat power increased, and he acquired numerous in-game skills.
Of course, if this were in the Immortal World, they would be called divine abilities.
He obtained two main skills and eight minor skills.
One main skill was obtained every thirty levels.
One minor skill was obtained every ten levels.
The two major skills Qi Yuan acquired were 'Heaven Cleaving Sword Technique' and 'Tyrannical Strength'.
Stealth was a minor skill, allowing him to hide his figure and move swiftly.
In Yi Guan Prohibition, Qi Yuan passed through many forests and encountered numerous strange Yi Guan Demons.
Especially in one forest, he felt as if he had entered a forbidden place.
There, amidst the lush forest, numerous trees stood.
On each tree hung colorful petticoats and bras.
With the wind, the petticoats fluttered.
The scene was utterly ridiculous.
Among them, Qi Yuan also spotted many pairs of underpants.
If some pervert were to come here, they would surely be thrilled.
But if that pervert were to touch the petticoats, the consequences would be dire.
Each petticoat was at least level thirty.
Qi Yuan quickly left this place.
After about half an hour, Qi Yuan finally stopped.
'Finally, a place rarely visited by Yi Guan Demons!' he exclaimed.
He saw over ten Yi Guan Demons washing clothes by the riverbank.
These Yi Guan Demons ranged from level thirty to fifty.
Qi Yuan shouted, 'Demons, behold my sword!'
The golden treasure sword instantly enlarged, reaching several zhang in size.
The massive sword swept across, creating a whirlwind, and the river water overturned.
When the sword landed on the Yi Guan Demons, they shattered into pieces.
+100 experience.
+300 experience.
...
+200 experience.
Qi Yuan, at level 82, could be said to have instantly killed these lower-level Yi Guan Demons.
'Not bad,' Qi Yuan clapped, 'I can go find other Yi Guan Demons now.'
Before taking action, he used a minor skill to conceal the commotion, ensuring it wouldn't attract the attention of other Yi Guan Demons.
However, what Qi Yuan didn't expect was that as soon as he left, over a hundred Yi Guan Demons rushed towards his location.
At the same time, he sensed that Yi Guan Demons were approaching from all directions.
He was stunned, 'How did I get exposed?'
He hurriedly started running.
If he were surrounded, the outcome would be miserable.
