Chapter 178: Chapter 178: Successful Foundation Establishment

Translator: 549690339

If it fails, then foundation establishment has failed.

Now, He Song is preparing for the third spirit power compression, he still has many chances.

A flash of determination glinted in his eyes, He Song, with the aid of the six Foundation Establishment Elixirs in his body, silently gathered power, steadily advancing towards his Foundation Establishment.

The third time.

The fourth time.

The fifth .

At one point.

When He Song once again exerted all his strength to compress the spirit power in his Elixir Field, continuously making the spirit power within his Elixir Field thicker.

An unprecedented sense of comfort momentarily surged in He Song's heart.

In this moment.

He Song distinctly felt that there was a powerful force being born within his Elixir Field.

Upon sensing this, He Song was instantly taken aback.

This is…a sign of mana birth!

The next moment, without hesitation, He Song continued to squeeze out all the spirit power in his body.

Simultaneously, that powerful force inside his Elixir Field, as He Song continued compressing the spirit power, was becoming increasingly terrifying.

When He Song perceived that the force within his Elixir Field was fully formed, a sense of heart-mind connectivity also instantly emerged in his heart.

Spirit power, when compressed to the extreme, gives birth to mana.

Only when one has successfully birthed the first strand of mana, can a cultivator step into Foundation Establishment, becoming a true cultivator!

Anything below Foundation Establishment is just a stage that one must pass through in the transition from an ordinary person to a cultivator.

As for mana.

The biggest difference from spirit power.

Is its characteristic of being connected with the cultivator's intention.

Spirit power, is just a power.

Controlling spirit power, in essence, there is no difference between using a knife or a sword by an ordinary person.

But as for mana, it is equivalent to a third hand, a third eye, a third ear, a third…

Mana moves with the heart, a unified heart and intention leads to mana following one's heart.

For instance, operating Artifacts.

Using spirit power to operate Artifacts is equivalent to ordinary people wielding knives and swords.

While operating Artifacts with mana is like the sword being an extension of oneself, with one intention of mind, mana can closely follow.

This is also why a master of Foundation Establishment can launch an attack from a great distance.

A master of Foundation Establishment.

Even if it is just the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, the range covered by their divine sense is as far as two miles.

Such a long distance, if spirit power is used, naturally, it would not reach that far.

But if one operates with mana, the mana flowing out can reach the place covered by divine sense in an instant.

Therefore, launching an attack from a far distance becomes a very usual matter.

At the top of the small mountain.

He Song was silently seated.

At the same time as the first strand of mana was born in his Elixir Field.

He originally just wanted to operate the mana in his body, converting all the remaining spirit power in his Elixir Field into mana.

However, at the moment when the mana was born, He Song suddenly felt a darkness before his eyes.

When he regained consciousness, he found himself floating in mid-air.

But the current He Song cannot use his eyes to look far, he could only vaguely sense some things around him.

The mountain peak, He Song's sitting figure, was sensed by He Song.

At the same time, around his own figure, mountain rocks, trees, and soil, all could be sensed.

Upon noticing this.

He Song suddenly realized.

When the spirit power in his Elixir Field was successfully compressed into a

thread of mana, that mana would nourish the cultivator's divine soul, and assist in birthing divine sense.

Whether it's Meng Guan or Wei Fan.

When talking about the understanding related to Foundation Establishment with He Song, both of them have mentioned it.

The process of birthing divine sense is actually very simple.

He Song, floating in mid-air, is equivalent to stretching out the divine sense, sensing the surroundings.

At this moment, He Song's divine soul is being transformed into divine sense by that little bit of mana.

Only when the first wisp of divine sense is successfully birthed, will He Song's perception appear mid-air.

However, at this moment He Song's divine sense is just born, he needs to wait until the divine soul is completely transformed into divine sense, only then will his perception fall from the air and return to his body.

In this way, He Song also understood.

Why, whether it was Meng Guan or Wei Fan, when they successfully broke through the Foundation Establishment and came out, they were clear about everything in the outside world.

Originally, cultivators during Foundation Establishment aren't only able to see what they themselves can see.

At the time of divine sense birth, they can sense all kinds of things around them.

The sound of speaking.

The placement of items.

And the actions of the people around.

All of these can be vaguely sensed.

However, if you want to fully perceive these things, you need to contact them with divine sense. If it's just swept over from mid-air, you can only vaguely sense the surroundings.

For example, He song at this moment could only sense his own body and some nearby mountain rocks, trees, etc.

The vague sense will be lost beyond ten meters.

Only when the divine sense contacts an object, or an animal, or even a person, can the sense of the divine sense be maximized.

Of course, if you really use divine sense to contact.

That would be similar to directly touching with your hand.

In the Cultivation World.

Touching someone else with divine sense is a major taboo.

If what is touched happens to be a female cultivator… it's probably a fight to the death.

In this very moment.

The first thread of mana has appeared in He Song's Elixir Field.

His divine soul was also gradually transforming into divine sense.

During this time.

Foundation Establishment cultivators are actually quite fragile.

Even if an ordinary person were to come along, they could decapitate the cultivator with a single strike.

This is why cultivators usually seek the protection of their closest friends, or parents and masters, when making a breakthrough in Foundation Establishment.

With someone to protect the law, it's naturally safer when breaking through to Foundation Establishment.

However, He Song does not need to worry about this.

Staying within the Smoke Array, his safety can still be guaranteed.

After a while.

He Song's consciousness returned to his body.

That strand of mana had successfully transformed He Song's divine soul into a divine sense.

At this moment, as his consciousness returned to his body, He Song did not bother to try to find out how far his divine sense could perceive; instead, he focused his attention on his Elixir Field.

Now.

He Song has established his foundation.

The spirit power in his Elixir Field should naturally transform into He Song's own mana as soon as possible.

This transformation process still requires a considerable amount of time.

Focusing his attention on his Elixir Field, with a thought, He Song started circulating the Thick Earth Formulas.

That strand of mana immediately surged from his Elixir Field and began to circulate in his meridians.

Under the operation of the Thick Earth Formulas, that strand of mana gradually absorbed the other spirit power in He Song's Elixir Field and became stronger.

One strand.

Two strands.

Three strands.

A few days later.

After He Song's continuous operation of the cultivation skill these days.

All the spirit power in He Song's body has disappeared, and at the same time, the spirit Qi from the outside world has been continuously absorbed by him and transformed into mana.

While transforming the spirit power in his body into mana, He Song also absorbs the spirit Qi from the outside world to speed up the transformation.

At this moment, cultivators who have just broken through to Foundation Establishment absorb spirit Qi from the outside world at an extremely rapid rate.

At the same time, this is why there is usually a small whirlpool of spirit Qi above those cultivators who have just broken through to Foundation Establishment.

There is not enough spirit Qi where they are, so they have to draw spirit Qi from afar.

Thus, a whirlpool of spirit Qi forms.

But He Song is different.

He is in the Smoke Array, with two small Spirit-Gathering Arrays inside and tens of thousands of spirit stones around him.

Under such circumstances, the amount of spirit Qi around He Song is definitely sufficient.

Therefore.

In these few days, there has been no particular phenomenon such as whirlpools of spirit Qi in He Song's location.

Without any distinctive occurrence, naturally it will not attract the attention of other cultivators.

This had been planned by He Song in advance.

Now, after several days, his meridians and Elixir Field are filled with a considerable amount of mana.

This mana, some of it is transformed from his original spirit power, while some of it, is produced in these few days by absorbing the spirit Qi from the outside world.

The current He Song, just needs a single thought, the mana in his body can be used as freely as his own limbs, constantly circulating in the meridians, thereby absorbing the spirit Qi from the outside world and transforming it into his own mana.

Although, to transform spirit Qi into mana, a considerable amount is needed.

However, for He Song.

As long as cultivation can increase mana, everything else is of secondary importance.

After these few days, when his body has completely become filled with mana, He Song then casually circulates the Thick Earth Formulas, and his attention quickly shifts to his divine sense.

Under normal circumstances.

After several days of consolidation, He Song should have left the confinement by now.

From the moment he emerges from the seclusion.

He is a newly established Foundation Establishment Master.

Status.

Position.

Power.

Strength.

All have taken a huge step forward.

There is an enormous gulf between the Qi refining stage he was in before and now.

However, after consolidating his cultivation base and thoroughly stabilizing his cultivation at the Foundation Establishment Realm, He Song did not leave isolation immediately.

He instead started to study divine sense.

Divine sense.

It is transformed from the divine soul.

The stronger the divine soul, the stronger the divine sense that is transformed from it.

He Song is a transmigrator.

Ever since he arrived at this world, his divine soul has always been much stronger than other people in this world.

Therefore, after his divine soul is transformed into divine sense, He Song wants to know if his divine sense would be stronger than that of others.

As soon as he thought of it, he took action.

While circulating the Thick Earth Formulas and continuously absorbing the surrounding spirit Qi, He Song also made a thought and probed his divine sense.

The sensation of exploring with divine sense is very peculiar.

In the desolate Smoke Array, He Song can freely probe with his divine sense and scan everything within the Smoke Array.

As his divine sense probes, he scans all around.

Soil, rocks, trees, fallen leaves, running water, the sound of the wind…

Everything he sensed appeared in He Song's mind and, after being processed by his divine sense, an extremely vivid flat map was immediately constructed in his mind.

Where his divine sense scans, it is clearly reflected in this flat map.

But, it is merely a flat map, not a three-dimensional image.

With a movement of He Song's heart, his divine sense suddenly spread rapidly around him, with He Song at the center..
