Chapter 230 - 230: 222: Mid-stage Foundation Establishment

“This is also why I was able to break through the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment so quickly.”

“However, I have heard of four spirits root practitioners experiencing a bottleneck when breaking through the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.”

“So, I guess there could be a link between this bottleneck and spirit roots, but probably not a significant one.”

“Perhaps, other than the spirit roots, there is something else influencing the practitioner’s Immortal Path.”

“But I have not heard of what that could be or whether it is true or not.”

In He Song’s mind,

Meng Guan’s words to him were clear as day.

He Song quickly recovered from his astonishment.

He felt an explosive increase in the mana within his Elixir Field.

Upon exploring with his divine sense, he discovered that his divine sense had also explosively increased, reaching as far as seven and a half miles.

Upon further attempting to absorb the surrounding spiritual Qi, He found that his cultivation speed had increased significantly.

Only then did He Song dare to confirm.

That he had indeed broken through from the early stage of Foundation Establishment to the mid-stage.

Mid-stage Foundation Establishment practitioners can cover an area within five miles with their divine sense.

Because his soul is naturally strong, his divine sense is stronger than that of ordinary practitioners.

Therefore, he was able to cover an area of as much as seven and a half miles.

Other than this, the explosive increase in body mana and the increase in the reach of divine sense all indicated that He Song’s strength had grown much stronger.

All these benefits,

Could only be achieved through a breakthrough in cultivation.

“Good, good, good, I’ve finally made it to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment!”

In the quiet room, He Song’s face briefly revealed a moment of joy.

Now, twenty-six years have passed since he entered the Foundation Establishment Realm.

It’s been twenty-six years!

During these many years, he elevates his cultivation bit by bit from the early stage to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

The hardships he encountered during this period are far beyond description.

In the four years immediately following his breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment, He Song continuously circulated the Qi refining Thick Earth Formulas with his cultivation almost at a standstill.

In the ten years just after his return to the Thick Earth Sect, while constantly enhancing his fighting power, He Song never forgot to cultivate every day.

In the five years just after he arrived at the Herbs Immortal Workshop, He Song, in addition to refining puppets and learning skills, never ceased his daily night and day cultivation.

After these nineteen years, He Song’s fighting power experienced an explosive surge, he seclusively cultivated for a full seven years in the Herbs Immortal Workshop.

And today,

He Song finally completed his cultivation, elevating his cultivation from the early to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

Twenty-six years.

No, to be accurate, it was twenty-two years.

In the four years immediately following his breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, He Song’s cultivation barely progressed at all.

In these twenty-two years of continuous cultivation, the amount of spirit stones He Song has consumed for his cultivation advancement, he does not even know how many.

Spirit tea, spirit rice, meat of demonic beasts.

Elixirs, cultivation skills, Spirit-Gathering Array.

All these require a massive amount of spirit stones for support.

Because He Song had many more spirit stones than the average Foundation Establishment practitioner.

He was able to elevate his cultivation from the early stage to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment in just twenty-two years.

According to the records in books,

A regular four spirits root practitioner in the Foundation Establishment Realm, wanting to break through from the early stage to the mid -stage, Generally takes around thirty years under normal circumstances.

Thirty years.

Compared to He Song’s twenty-two years, which is a full eight years longer.

That is to say,

He Song forcefully shortened his cultivation progress by eight years compared to other Foundation Establishment Masters by using spirit stones.

This cultivation advancement speed is by no means inferior to those with three spirit roots in the Thick Earth Sect and may even have surpassed them.

The three spirit root practitioners.

Their cultivation speed is naturally much faster compared to those with four spirits root.

However,

Casting spells,

Also requires resources.

With He Song’s disregard for costs and a vast amount of spirit stones,

Even the cultivation speed of practitioners with three spirit roots might just match up with He Song.

In fact, they might even be surpassed by him.

Of course,

The reason for such quick cultivation lies to a large extent with the small Spirit-Gathering Array.

He Song, with his study of array tao, alone enjoys a small Spirit-Gathering Array.

This kind of treatment is not something that any other Foundation Establishment Master can generally enjoy.

They either cultivate in the mountain gate where the spiritual Qi is dense but can’t compare to He Song’s extending the full benefits of a small Spirit-Gathering Array alone.

Or they guard the Immortal Workshop, where the concentration of spiritual Qi is worse than the mountain gate, incomparable to He Song’s.

Moreover, with the annual salary of three thousand spirit stones for the Foundation Establishment Masters, there is probably a lack of continuous supply of elixirs.

But He Song is different.

Given He Song’s wealth, during his seclusive cultivation, the Earth Spirit Elixirs used for Foundation Establishment, could always be supplied.

Even now, despite the lack of spirit stones, He Song did not cut back on his elixir allowance.

At the same time, when He Song was guarding the Immortal Workshop, he was not hindered by mundane affairs and thus, never neglected his cultivation.

Under these circumstances,

The reason behind He Song’s rapid cultivation progress is understandable.

He had achieved this eight years faster than the average cultivator with four spirit roots.

Such a rate of cultivation improvement could potentially shock many people if it were known.

However.

He Song did not entertain the idea of revealing his cultivation level.

At this moment.

Having broken through from the early stage of Foundation Establishment to the mid-stage, he thought it better to keep his cultivation hidden. Though he was now in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

Others were not aware of this.

If he used Breath Concealment Formulas to reduce his cultivation aura to the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

Even if others used Qi Observing Skill or divine sense to scan him, they would most likely see him as still being in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

With that, He Song would be much safer when he goes out.

If anyone wished to do harm to He Song.

Under the circumstance of his hidden cultivation.

As long as they deemed him still in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

And prepared a lineup to ambush him anticipating an early-stage practitioner.

He Song would definitely be able to escape.

Such an approach could indirectly save his life, couldn’t it?

Moreover.

While being outside.

He might unavoidably encounter some cultivators like him who preferred to hide their cultivation levels.

If he happened to run into such a person.

And they had hidden a small stage of cultivation, appearing as an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, but in fact being a mid-stage one.

At such times.

If he also showed his hidden cultivation, being the same mid-stage or even higher than them.

The conflict between him and that cultivator could be swiftly resolved.

Even if it couldn’t be resolved immediately, he wouldn’t be disadvantaged in a fight.

Aside from this.

If his cultivation rose further in the future, he could keep hiding his actual cultivation at an appropriate high level.

With time, maybe when He Song’s cultivation reached the fullness of Foundation Establishment, he might only appear to others as if he was in mid-stage or late-stage Foundation Establishment.

If he did so, even if he encountered cultivators who liked to hide multiple levels of their cultivation, he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.

For instance, if someone was actually at full Foundation Establishment but only showed a mid-stage cultivation.

Or if someone was in the late stage of Foundation Establishment yet only demonstrated a cultivation of the early stage.

If He Song had more cultivation hidden than them, wouldn’t that give him an advantage?

At that time, who was stronger.

Would depend on how much cultivation each person had hidden.

Of course, the chances of encountering such situations were quite slim, and He Songs actions were merely made out of foresight, bearing the proverbial “saving for a rainy day” in mind.

He would choose a suitable degree for hiding his cultivation.

Without revealing any flaws.

And without portraying his cultivation as too low.

Only then.

His cultivations would intertwine between reality and illusion, making it hard for others to discern.

This would make He Song even safer.

At the moment, there were no other Masters within Foundation Establishment around He Song.

Therefore, there was no need to hide his cultivation yet.

After breaking through to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, He Song soon began to operate the Thick Earth Formulas to consolidate his cultivation level.

Consolidating his cultivation was of utmost importance after breaking into the Foundation Establishment Realm. He could not afford to be careless.

Because of this.

Before He Song secluded himself to consolidate his cultivation, he purposefully activated all the Array Skills that enveloped his estate to protect himself thoroughly.

Worth mentioning is.

A year ago, He Song has already fully grasped the concepts of the defensive array – the Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array, and successfully set it up within his estate.

As such.

The estate where He Song resided now had four Great Arrays installed by him.

The Spirit-Gathering Array gathered the spirit Qi around, making his cultivation speed faster.

The Smoke Array deceived divine senses and hid his form and Qi, making the other Masters in Foundation Establishment unable to detect his existence even when their divine sense swept across him.

The Seven Kills Heaven Fire Array would trigger heaven fire to burn those who stepped into it, incessantly burning their mana. When the enemy was empty of mana, they would be left to the slaughter.

The Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array had a strong defensive capability and a function to store spirit Qi for repelling enemies in urgent times.

These four Great Arrays.

Shrouded the mansion He Song lived in, significantly enhancing its security.

If anyone attacked, with the protection of these four Great Arrays, He Song would have an incredibly strong ability to protect his life.

The Spirit-Gathering Array gathered constant spirit Qi, supplying it to the other three Great Arrays.

The Smoke Array covered the entire mansion, fully obscuring any sounds from inside.

The Seven Kills Heaven Fire Array killed the enemies.

The Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array protected He Song himself.

With such a strong array chain, even a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator would not be able to gain an advantage.

What’s more, He Song was in the array, able to replenish spirit stones for the array at any time.

With an endless supply of spirit stones.

Even though He Song was in the process of consolidating his cultivation now.

With the protection of these arrays, his safety was within his grasp. It could be said, He Song’s choice to study arrays proved to be an excellent move..
