“Hoo, hoo, hoo.” As the spirit gathering formation in the secret chamber activated, nature’s spiritual energy from all around gradually converged. Including the pile of low-grade spirit stones placed next to Su Yu, the dense spiritual energy submerged Su Yu’s physical body, and was transformed by the Green Wood Year Ring Skill into strands of mana.
This mana merged into the dantian within his body, and the proficiency of the Green Wood Year Ring Skill gradually improved bit by bit.
99-97%, 99-98%, 99-99%….
“Hum!”
An hour later.
The aura of green wood on Su Yu subtly underwent a transformation, and an incredibly dense green light shone and filled the entire secret chamber. Within this green radiance, one could vaguely see the emergence of a towering tree. From a small sprout pushing through the soil, it grew into a massive giant tree.
The sight altered and transformed.
On Su Yu, a unique aura of time and vicissitude appeared.
This aura was much stronger than before, and although it flickered for an instant, its existence could still be discerned.
In the dantian within his body, limitless mana was transforming. The dense nature’s spiritual energy that had converged within the secret chamber was now pouring crazily into his body, transforming into mana by Green Wood Year Ring Skill in a flash, greatly enhancing his efficiency.
This mana within the dantian slowly formed a vortex, with a bright green light spreading all around.
Undergoing gradual transformation and sublimation, a Foundation Establishment seed formed.
The shape of the Foundation Establishment seed was nearly the same as the towering tree in the illusion.
As the mana underwent a transformation, Su Yu’s divine sense was also transforming.
“Rumble!!!”
It was as if the heavens and earth were just created, with clear qi rising upwards and turbid qi sinking downwards. Su Yu’s soul transformed into a golden cicada chrysalis, and was feverishly absorbing and refining a unique ‘clear qi’ power at this moment of breakthrough and transformation.
This power was the special force bestowed by the heavens and earth to cultivators who were breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, allowing their divine sense to enhance.
How much could be absorbed completely depended on one’s own talent and abilities.
With Su Yu possessing a divine sense comparable to the Foundation Establishment Realm and the extraordinary Golden Cicada Technique, this moment was like a rare opportunity. His Golden Cicada Technique was operating at full force, greedily absorbing this power, and his divine sense and soul power once again underwent transformation.
Beyond that, Su Yu’s body was also gradually transforming.
A few impurities of his body were forcefully purged in this moment, and a strong life force permeated his entire body.
It seemed like his life form was upgrading and transforming, his skin, and hair also changed.
Especially his skin, shedding a layer of old skin, now looked glossy, crystal clear and transparent.
If one looked at the proficiency panel, one could see that the Green Wood Year Ring Skill’s proficiency was currently transforming from a round of nine turns with 100% mastery to becoming a two-round, one turn with 0.01% proficiency, without any bottleneck.
“Roar!!!”
A powerful aura burst forth from Su Yu, and although this aura was masked by the secret chamber’s formation, the moment Su Yu broke through, the nature’s spiritual energy in the surrounding area of the courtyard seemed to be agitated.
The dense nature’s spiritual energy converged upon Su Yu’s courtyard, and transformed into a vortex that disappeared underground.
Across.
Lan Xi and Lan Gong woke up in shock and after rushing out of their courtyard, they looked astonished towards Su Yu’s courtyard. The disturbance in nature’s spiritual energy appeared abnormal, far from the small-scale spiritual energy tide that a Qi Refinement cultivator could invoke.
Lan Xi was startled, “This is—”
Lan Gong’s small eyes bulged while roundly exclaiming, “The movement of a breakthrough? Foundation Establishment Realm? ”
In the courtyard next to Su Yu.
The Artifact Refiner uncle, who was disheveled and reeked of alcohol, woke up suddenly. He too rushed out of his courtyard, examining the course and movement of the tide of nature’s spiritual energy.
“Hiss!”
The Artifact Refiner inhaled sharply, his pupils dilating as he stared at Su Yu’s courtyard.
“This is…Su…Taoist Friend Su…No, should be Senior Su, he broke through?” The anomaly was not clear, but nearby cultivators could still detect it. These cultivators looked enviously in the direction of the spiritual energy fluctuation and debated amongst themselves about who bumped into the Foundation Establishment Realm.
This disturbance gradually dimmed after more than an hour, and the spiritual energy surrounding the world returned to its silence.
Lan Xi and Lan Gong, the two sisters, looked at Su Yu’s yard with complex expressions.
“When he first came here, he was only a Qi Refinement Realm Stage Eight cultivator like me. But now, I’ve just reached Qi Refinement Realm Stage Nine, and Taoist Friend Su – no, I should call him Senior Su – has successfully broken into the Foundation Establishment Realm!” Lan Gong said enviously, unsure if she would ever have the opportunity to make a breakthrough.
Lan Xi gradually recovered from her shock, sighed, and whispered: “He once claimed that he was untalented and very poor.”
“Turns out, it only took him seven years to break through from Qi Refinement Stage Eight to the Foundation Establishment Realm.”
“If this level of talent is low, then are we – should we consider ourselves useless?”
She spoke with a whimper in her voice, upset.
At this moment, Lan Xi felt a twinge of envy and began to question if Su Yu was just being humble. His claim of ‘low talent’ clearly was a ruse.
In the secret chamber shrouded by layers of formations.
Su Yu gradually awakened from his cultivation, his Green Wood Year Ring Skill entirely upgraded to two rings and one turn. On his body, it seemed as though an additional yearly ring had appeared, two yearly rings etched into his being like two circular rings.
A faint aura of time radiated from these two year rings.
When he came to, Su Yu could feel the abundant power of the Foundation Establishment Realm mana in his Dantian. Despite expecting this breakthrough, he couldn’t help but be thrilled. Clenching his fist, he whispered: “I did it. I finally broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm!”
At this moment, Su Yu’s expression changed slightly. After a moment of surprise, he murmured: “What’s going on?”
“Why does my Spiritual Root seem to have changed a bit?”
The quality of the Spiritual Root was most apparent in its affinity for nature’s spiritual energy.
If people who’re without a Spiritual Root are the neglected children of the spiritual energy of nature, then those with Earth and Heaven Spirit Roots are the favorites; the spiritual energies of Heaven and Earth orbit around them.
As for those with low-quality Spirit Roots, they were just barely tolerated; not yet completely disliked.
Now, Su Yu could distinctly feel a slight change in his Spiritual Root, and his sensation and affinity to the natural spiritual energy around him had increased a bit.
If his Five Elements Spiritual Root was considered to be mid-upper tier among low-quality Spirit Roots before, it should now be considered high tier among low-quality Spirit Roots.
This was a change in his own root talent.
Su Yu was astonished following the discovery, as despite having read many books, even ancient ones, he had never come across anything that indicated that one could improve their Spiritual Root.
“If my Spiritual Root has now reached the upper level of the low-quality Spiritual Root, would it reach the middle-quality Spiritual Root next time?” Su Yu’s expression changed rapidly, and his heart pounded. His fists clenched tightly as his veins bulged in excitement.
One’s Spiritual Root was a gift from the heavens!
But if he could defy destiny and change it, he would definitely want his Spiritual Root to be a Five Elements Heavenly Spirit Root, not a Five Elements low-quality Spirit Root.
“Hoo.”
It took a long while for Su Yu to regain composure from this surprising discovery. He took several deep breaths to suppress his excitement.
He then looked at the proficiency panel, and noted quite a few changes.
[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Realm Level One.]
[Lifespan: 50/213.]
[Cultivation Technique: Green Wood Year Ring Skill (Two rings, one turn, proficiency 0.02%). ]
“Foundation Establishment Realm Level One, lifespan has broken through two hundred!” Su Yu’s eyes shone with amazement. Even if a common Foundation Establishment Realm practitioner reached Level Nine in the Realm, their lifespan would only be somewhere around two to three hundred and forty-five years.
Even if they were to take a second-grade Lifespan Extension Pill, it might only add ten or twenty years.
However, he had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, and his lifespan was already two hundred and thirteen!
From Qi Refinement Realm Stage Nine to Foundation Establishment Realm Level One, his lifespan had almost increased by fifty years!
