60: Hey, how did I break through?
On the cliff face in the center of the valley was a massive cave, the nest of the Giant Ape leader.
Deep within the cave grew a small tree about a *zhang* high, bearing five fist-sized, Profound Cyan fruits that emitted an enticing fragrance and dense spiritual essence.
Profound Origin Fruit, a Tier 1 High Grade Spiritual Fruit.
It can increase Magic Power and strengthen the Physical Body, having a very noticeable effect on Qi Refining Cultivators and Tier 1 Yao Beasts.
"Not bad, there are actually five ripe fruits!"
Yu Xuzi happily patted Embracing Star next to him, "I didn't raise you two for nothing; this time counts as another merit for you!!"
That's right, the Profound Origin Fruit had only recently ripened, and its scent was detected by Embracing Star and Soaring as they flew high overhead.
That is why Yu Xuzi came here to harvest them.
Those two fellows now have extremely sharp noses and can see far. Yu Xuzi suspects they might develop related Innate Demonic Techniques in the future.
If it weren't for the Information provided by the two Golden Eagles, he wouldn't really be interested in such Ordinary Yao Beast groups given his current strength.
Yu Xuzi picked two fruits and fed them to Embracing Star and Soaring respectively. The remaining three he picked and stored safely in a Jade Box.
As for the fruit tree... "Swish swish~"
Amidst the flashing Sword Light, the land within a five-*zhang* radius around the fruit tree was directly cut open by him, and the huang tian treasure bead's vortex passage appeared in its place.
He planned to directly transplant this Spiritual Fruit Tree into the Cave Heaven.
"Right, there's also the Spiritual Vein."
The valley where this group of Giant Apes lived had a Spiritual Vein, probably Tier 1 Medium Grade, similar to the Spiritual Vein of Purple Gold Mountain in Yu Kingdom previously.
"Dig!!"
Anyway, this world was about to end; keeping these things here was useless.
Therefore, Yu Xuzi moved everything good he saw into the huang tian treasure bead!
This included, but was not limited to, Spirit Medicine, Spiritual Plant, Spiritual Vein, and Spiritual Ore... Looking back now, Yu Xuzi felt that these fragmented small realms were actually quite good.
Countless Resources were available for him to wantonly plunder... Meanwhile.
Qingyuan Realm.
This was the name Yu Xuzi used to refer to the world where he was born.
Within the Qingyuan Sect, True Person Yanling passed away in meditation, filled with extreme unwillingness.
This time, he truly passed away in meditation.
After experiencing an unbelievable Strange Incident, he stubbornly held on for several more months, searching the entire Southwest region of the continent thoroughly, hoping to retrieve that treasure bead, but unfortunately, he failed in the end.
He spat out three liters of blood and died suddenly.
He only left behind a final instruction to find the Yellow Stone Bead... Two months later.
Thousand Islands Realm.
This was the name Yu Xuzi gave to this fragmented world he Transmigrated to—simple and clear.
On a certain Small Island Reef devoid of life, an unremarkable Yellow Stone Bead lay nestled in a crevice between the rocks.
Inside the huang tian treasure bead.
Yuxu Mountain, the highest peak in the center of the Cave Heaven, now served as Yu Xuzi's new Cultivation location.
"Hoo~"
Yu Xuzi opened his eyes, exhaled a puff of White Qi, and slowly concluded his Cultivation.
He had accumulated a total of ninety-eight strands of Magic Power within his body, far surpassing Ordinary Peak Qi Refining Cultivators.
"I can advance no further. It seems I must Breakthrough to the Dao Foundation."
Yu Xuzi revealed a somewhat complex expression.
Breaking through soon was originally a good thing, but at this moment, he seemed slightly hesitant.
According to the Huang Tian True Scripture, the Dao Foundation condensed by Human Race Cultivators mainly comes in three types: Ordinary, Extraordinary, and Top-Tier. The main difference lies in the strength of the Divine Sense and the size of the Sea of Magic Power.
He wasn't afraid of failing the Breakthrough.
Given his Foundation and terrifying talent, the Huang Tian True Scripture Cultivation Technique, and the assistance of abundant Heaven And Earth Spiritual Essence and High Grade Foundation Establishment Pills within the Cave Heaven... his certainty of Breaking through to the Dao Foundation was at least 99%.
Moreover, the Quality of the Dao Foundation would definitely not be poor.
It would be at least an Extraordinary Dao Foundation, and very likely a Top-Tier Dao Foundation.
This was an existence unseen in the Qingyuan Realm for a Millennium.
True Person Yanling only achieved an Extraordinary Dao Foundation.
What Yu Xuzi hesitated about was that he felt his Physical Body had not yet reached its Limit!
Ninety-eight strands of Magic Power was the Limit of the Huang Tian True Scripture Cultivation Technique, not the Limit of his body.
His Dantian could still store more Magic Power, and he had successfully condensed the ninety-ninth strand of Magic Power, but unfortunately, the Qi Refining Chapter of the Huang Tian True Scripture could not operate.
In the end, out of helplessness, that strand of Magic Power had to Disperse and vanish.
"Forget it, I'll Breakthrough first."
"A Top-Tier Dao Foundation is also good."
"Besides, there is no stronger Cultivation Technique right now, and creating one myself is unrealistic. I can't possibly run the Dao Foundation Chapter..."
"Wait, the Dao Foundation Chapter!"
Yu Xuzi's expression shook, and a Bold Idea suddenly sprang up in his heart.
The Magic Power within his body already far exceeded that of Ordinary Peak Qi Refining Cultivators. If he could truly run the Dao Foundation Chapter of the Huang Tian True Scripture... even if only a little, perhaps it could restrain him and allow him to refine more Magic Power.
He wanted to try and see if he could achieve an existence surpassing the Top-Tier Dao Foundation.
"But what if I suffer Qi Deviation?"
The hesitation flashed and disappeared.
Yu Xuzi firmed his resolve.
"It's worth the Risk!"
If he suffered Qi Deviation, the worst that could happen was his Cultivation Base would Disperse.
He probably wouldn't die.
With his current Resources, and being safe inside the Cave Heaven, it wouldn't take three years for him to Cultivate back to Peak Qi Refining.
If he didn't take the Risk and just Broke through like this?
He felt he would definitely regret it in the future... Half a month later.
Yu Xuzi had familiarized himself with the content of the Huang Tian True Scripture's Dao Foundation Chapter and adjusted his State of Mind and condition.
The attempt officially began.
Majestic spiritual essence surged into his Limbs And Bones. In less than half a day, the ninety-ninth strand of Magic Power had condensed into form.
As expected, the Magic Power was refined.
However, the Qi Refining Chapter of the Huang Tian True Scripture could not restrain it, allowing it to wander haphazardly through the Meridians in his body.
The next moment!
"Dao Foundation Chapter, activate!"
"Boom~"
An Earth-shattering Roar seemed to echo in Yu Xuzi's heart. He felt his Meridians and Dantian trembling, but the good news was that the strand of Magic Power finally began to slowly return to the Dantian.
"Success!"
Joy rose in Yu Xuzi's heart, but unexpectedly, an Abnormality occurred.
The ninety-nine strands of Magic Power in his Dantian suddenly began to spin on their own, accelerating rapidly, forming a Magic Power Vortex.
No matter how he circulated the Cultivation Technique to suppress it, it was useless. The spiritual essence of the entire Yuxu Mountain began to converge towards him, pouring frantically into his body.
"What's going on?"
What startled Yu Xuzi even more was that the hundredth strand of Magic Power in his Dantian automatically condensed beyond his control, forming in an instant.
"This..."
Could he really be suffering Qi Deviation?
Cold Sweat seeped from Yu Xuzi's forehead.
But he had no time to think carefully now. The hundred strands of Magic Power spun wildly in his Dantian, colliding and Fusioning with each other.
More and more Magic Power began to emerge, and the circulation of the Huang Tian True Scripture's Dao Foundation Chapter grew faster and faster.
"This is bad, it's going Out Of Control!"
Yu Xuzi gritted his teeth and persisted, forcibly maintaining a Clear Mind.
Just as he thought he was about to suffer severe injuries and have his Cultivation Base destroyed, all the Magic Power suddenly converged toward the center of the Dantian, gradually condensing into a drop of Golden Liquid.
"Magic Power Liquefaction?"
Simultaneously, Yu Xuzi felt a sharp pain in his Niwan Palace, as if something was being forcibly torn open.
"The Sea of Divine Sense is also opening up?"
These were all Signs of Breaking through to the Dao Foundation Stage!
Yu Xuzi: "???"
Huh, how did I Break through?
