123: Chapter 123: Foundation Establishment

"Peak Qi Condensation..." Su Ruotong murmured, "I have never heard of a Peak Qi Condensation that gives off such a terrifying aura..."

Xiao Yuan did not tell them that he was at the eighteenth layer of Qi Condensation, although they also did not know why Xiao Yuan had already reached Perfection in the Qi Condensation Stage yet still had not proceeded with Foundation Establishment, continuing to Cultivate instead.

But seeing Xiao Yuan's aura becoming increasingly terrifying, they knew that Xiao Yuan was likely Cultivating some powerful Cultivation Technique.

It was just that she truly did not expect this Cultivation Technique to be so freakishly abnormal!

Lin Qingxue was also dumbfounded: "What kind of monster is this?"

Xiao Yuan grinned without explaining, instead looking at the six women.

Meeting his gaze, the six women instantly understood something.

Xiao Yuan wanted to engage in Dual Cultivation again! However, being able to sense that Xiao Yuan's strength was getting stronger and stronger, they had even more confidence in escaping.

They truly believed that if Xiao Yuan managed a Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, he might really possess the ability to crack the Tier-3 Formation.

This time, no one was shy or coy. After all, there had already been two times before.

Everyone naturally walked together and began a new round of Dual Cultivation.

(Ten thousand words are omitted here once again)

...

After Dual Cultivation, Xiao Yuan sat cross-legged, holding a pill shimmering with five-colored light in his palm — a celestial-grade foundation establishment pill.

The energy of the creation cauldron within his body was almost depleted. Dual Cultivation was to replenish sufficient energy so that it might come in handy when he underwent Foundation Establishment!

Now that the energy was fully replenished once again, it was time for Foundation Establishment.

Seeing this scene, the six women watched Xiao Yuan nervously, making preparations to act as Protectors.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yuan swallowed the Medicinal Pill into his stomach.

Boom!!!

A terrifying surge of energy exploded within his body!

That energy was extremely pure, containing the breath of Chaos from when the heaven and earth first opened. It instantly surged into his limbs and bones, scouring every inch of his Meridians, every piece of bone, and every cell!

Xiao Yuan hurriedly circulated the Five Elements Rotation Technique to guide this energy.

However, very soon he discovered — —

The medicinal efficacy of a single celestial-grade foundation establishment pill was simply not enough!

His Five Elements Spiritual Root was like five bottomless pits, crazily devouring the medicinal efficacy, yet it only barely filled half of it!

"Come again!"

He took out another one and swallowed it!

Boom!!!

The medicinal efficacy exploded once more, and the Five Elements Spiritual Root continued to devour it!

Still not enough!

Gritting his teeth, Xiao Yuan took out a third one and swallowed it!

The medicinal efficacy of three celestial-grade foundation establishment pills erupted simultaneously, forming a terrifying energy storm within his body!

The Five Elements Rotation Formation base rotated frantically, and five-colored light soared into the sky!

Right at this moment...

A sudden change occurred!

In his Dantian, the five Spiritual Roots of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth suddenly erupted with dazzling light!

That light grew increasingly intense and powerful, and in the end, it actually began to fuse with one another!

Metal engenders Water, Water engenders Wood, Wood engenders Fire, Fire engenders Earth, Earth engenders Metal — the Five Elements generate each other, endless and unceasing!

During the process of the Five Elements fusing, three brand-new rays of light were born out of thin air!

A cyan ray of light was born from the fusion of Wood and Fire — that was Wind!

A purple ray of light was born from the turbulence of Gold, Water, and Fire — that was Lightning!

A white ray of light was born from the condensation of Water and Gold — that was Ice!

Wind, Lightning, and Ice, the three mutant Spiritual Roots, appeared simultaneously!

"This is..." Xiao Yuan widened his eyes.

The Five Elements generate each other, deriving all things!

Wood generates Wind, Fire generates Wind — the wind Spiritual Root was born from the fusion of Wood and Fire!

Metal generates Lightning, Water generates Lightning, and Fire can also generate Lightning — the lightning Spiritual Root was born from the turbulence of the three attributes of Gold, Water, and Fire!

Water generates Ice, Metal generates Ice — the ice Spiritual Root was born from the condensation of the two attributes of Water and Gold!

Eight-Attribute Spiritual Roots gathered in one body!

Hum — !

Dazzling eight-colored light erupted around Xiao Yuan's entire body!

Gold, green, blue, red, yellow, cyan, purple, and white — the eight colors intertwined, forming a huge pillar of light that soared into the sky!

The entire space was trembling!

The six women were dumbfounded by this sudden anomaly.

"What... What is this?!" Ye Qingcen widened her eyes.

Su Ruotong blurted out: "Eight-Attribute Spiritual Roots?! How is that possible!"

Lin Qingxue murmured: "He is... Five Elements Spiritual Root... Five Elements Spiritual Root Foundation Establishment can actually truly derive three mutant attributes..."

Su Li's eyes were filled with shock, but even more so with pride.

The eight-colored pillar of light lasted for a full quarter of an hour before slowly dissipating.

Xiao Yuan opened his eyes, two flashes of eight-colored divine light fleetingly disappearing.

He hurriedly looked inward at his Dantian...

In the Dantian, the eight Spiritual Roots were neatly arranged, forming a natural Formation!

Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth were in the center, while Wind, Lightning, and Ice surrounded them. The eight-colored light circulated, generating and restraining one another, endless and unceasing!

Looking at the Spiritual Root values again...

All of them were 10!

The extreme number of nine was broken under the celestial-grade foundation establishment pill!

"The Spiritual Root values... completely full?" Xiao Yuan himself was stunned.

He hurriedly checked the Dantian space...

His original Dantian had expanded by more than ten times!

Vast spiritual power surged and circulated within it. The total amount of that spiritual power was even ten times more than an ordinary Peak Foundation Establishment Cultivator!

"This..." Xiao Yuan took a deep breath.

He currently had a feeling...

If he encountered a Cultivator at the Early Golden Core stage right now, he could definitely go toe-to-toe with them!

Even, there was a possibility of winning!

Xiao Yuan stood up, eight-colored light circulating around his body, and his aura was terrifyingly suffocating.

The six women looked at him, their eyes filled with shock and... adoration.

Xiao Yuan grinned.

"Foundation Establishment is successful."

Amidst his inner joy, he looked inward at the eight orderly arranged Spiritual Roots in his Dantian, and the expression on his face slowly grew complicated.

The Eight-Attribute Spiritual Roots — Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, and Ice — were complete, generating and restraining each other, endless and unceasing.

"Awesome is awesome..." he thought to himself inwardly, "but now the problem is — what on earth kind of Cultivation Technique should I Cultivate?"

The Five Elements Rotation Technique could only be used to Cultivate up to the Qi Condensation Stage, and it had now reached Perfection.

He didn't have a single Cultivation Technique for the Foundation Establishment Stage! If he purely relied on stacking Medicinal Pills, his cultivation could at most Breakthrough to the Peak of Early Foundation Establishment. Wanting to break through a minor Realm without a Cultivation Technique was practically impossible!

Moreover, ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivation Techniques were aimed at single or dual Spiritual Roots. With him cultivating all eight attributes simultaneously, ordinary Cultivation Techniques were completely useless!

Either he creates his own Cultivation Technique for eight-attribute simultaneous cultivation, or he sees if he can find a Cultivation Technique suitable for eight-attribute simultaneous cultivation.

"Creating a Cultivation Technique from scratch is such an immense difficulty!" Xiao Yuan rubbed his temples with a headache.

But very soon, he came to terms with it again.

Although cultivating all eight attributes simultaneously was difficult, the strength was terrifying!

His Dantian had now expanded tenfold, and his total spiritual power was ten times that of an ordinary Peak Foundation Establishment! He wouldn't even panic going toe-to-toe with the Early Golden Core stage!

Being able to directly shake the Early Golden Core stage right at Early Foundation Establishment, what kind of strength was this?!

If he really managed to get a Cultivation Technique for eight-attribute simultaneous cultivation, it was unimaginable just how terrifying his strength would become!

Therefore, for the sake of strength, no matter how difficult this path was, he had to walk it!

"The matter of the Cultivation Technique can wait for later." He stood up and began to sense the changes in his Divine Sense.

After his cultivation broke through to Foundation Establishment, his Divine Sense was officially born.

He closed his eyes and spread out his perceptive power with all his might...

Ten miles!

Although this space was clearly only about a li in size, Xiao Yuan was still able to judge the strength of his Divine Sense based on the perception intensity and endurance of his Divine Sense!
