254: Chapter 254 Spiritual Plants as the Foundation, the Grand Trend of the Heavenly River

Zifu True Persons, especially those like Wang An who blaze a trail for the entire supernatural system, have every action and every thought influence the direction of the entire supernatural system.

To say that their will is Heaven's will and their words become law is no exaggeration.

Another three years passed. With the promotion of the Mind-Purifying White Lotus and Soul-Purifying White Lotus—developed by Li Mingxiao to purify the mind and soul—throughout the Human Federation, countless cultivators began growing a few pots of these spirit plants in their cultivation dojos, improving the efficiency of their cultivation and comprehension of Dharma principles, while simultaneously reducing the impatient pursuit of higher realms and stronger spells in society.

A vast amount of Qi fortune, from an angle imperceptible to Li Mingxiao at his Qi Refining level, converged into the phenomenon of a white lotus flower.

His own research finally succeeded, and the Level 10 Perfected Spirit-Purifying White Lotus, carrying a pure, cleansing imagery, was born.

Upon the birth of this spirit plant, the Qi fortune network enveloping the entire Blue Star reacted, bestowing a large cluster of Qi fortune as a gift.

Li Mingxiao, who had been in the laboratory observing the sprouting state of the Spirit-Purifying White Lotus, suddenly felt his divine sense clear up. The Dharma runes that had previously been somewhat difficult to understand now seemed as easy to grasp as eating and drinking under this new perspective.

A premonition from the void welled up in his heart.

"My Dao is about to be accomplished."

Only then did he understand that this was the so-called feedback of Qi fortune.

Any achievement that aligns with a major trend has the potential to receive the immense favor of the entire civilization's Qi fortune, making subsequent cultivation smooth sailing with very few obstacles.

The missing supernatural Dharma runes in Li Mingxiao's spiritual sea were quickly filled in with his newly acquired Daoist knowledge, and a sense of enlightenment appeared in his heart.

"Beyond the Five Elements Dao Foundation, I will blaze a path for an alternative type of Dao Foundation."

He then carefully calculated the timing for the Dao Foundation ritual. His Heaven's Secret ability, which had previously been somewhat strained, immediately provided feedback.

"Two years from now is when I will construct my Dao Foundation."

As Li Mingxiao began preparing for the Dao Foundation ritual, time passed quickly.

On this day, on the peak of a snowy mountain on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, a figure stood, isolated and independent from the world.

A hundred miles away, the imagery of a Dao Foundation—the sound of flowing water in a ravine, the momentum of a rushing long river, and the state of a hundred rivers converging—gathered. These were indeed some of the highest-ranking Dao Foundation cultivators in human civilization, aside from the Heavenly River Real Person.

A steady, capable-looking man spoke, his deep voice transmitting between the three of them without leaking a single bit.

"Senior Sister, you asked us to come and observe this person's Dao Foundation advancement ritual. I wonder what is so special about it that requires us to come in person?"

The aloof and independent Taoist nun who was asked, looking at the white lotus phenomenon blooming above Li Mingxiao's head, said indifferently.

"This person's path is extremely compatible with the Heavenly River Water spiritual aura that Master is currently promoting. Favored by it, there is a sign of creating a new type of Dao Foundation."

This sentence left the Junior Brother and Junior Sister somewhat astonished.

"A new type of Dao Foundation? It seems the white lotus spirit plant he researched has already become a key link in Master's grand design; otherwise, the Qi fortune would not have pushed for the emergence of a new method."

With the supernatural investigations of Dao Foundation cultivators with such profound Daoist cultivation as them, they could naturally quickly understand what this person had been doing over the years.

"Using the white lotus as his natal object, mutually referencing the Dao, and maintaining a Focus on the path of purification imagery—he certainly has ideas. No wonder it fits Master's layout. If this person succeeds, it will further perfect Master's imagery and laws for purifying the Heavenly River. He is quite gifted."

The young woman in Taoist robes, her expression a mix of rationality and inquiry, said with interest.

"The three of us coming together is to officially send a signal to the outside world that we value this path, guiding cultivators to continue exploring in this direction..."

Before she could finish speaking, the Purifying Heavenly River covering the entire Blue Star from a hundred miles up suddenly dropped a single raindrop, embedding itself into the Dao Foundation ritual Li Mingxiao was conducting.

The fragile connection between him and the Spirit-Purifying White Lotus was immediately strengthened, and at the same time, the Dao Foundation ritual reached its peak.

The white lotus purification imagery bloomed on the peak of the snowy mountain.

While the external phenomenon was grand and magnificent, significant changes were also occurring within Li Mingxiao's body. The supernatural Dharma runes he constructed, through their close connection, quickly resonated and fused with the Spirit-Purifying White Lotus, transforming into a supernatural Dao Foundation.

[Purification Lotus Platform]

It wields the purification stance, temporarily purifies any minor path of the Three Treasures (Essence, Qi, Spirit), and raises the strength of magical power by one realm.

"It's actually a middle-grade Dao Foundation with two minor divine abilities."

Approaching the moment of breaking through to the Dao Foundation, Li Mingxiao had gained a rough understanding of knowledge regarding the supernatural Dao Foundation level, and he was quite surprised that he could construct a middle-grade Dao Foundation.

One must know that after personally experiencing the construction of a Dao Foundation, he understood the difficulty involved. If not for the descending Heavenly River Water, with his fragile connection to the spirit plant, it would have been very difficult to support the resonance and fusion of the supernatural Dharma runes.

Even if he had luckily succeeded in the fusion, it would only have been a low-grade Dao Foundation, and his future achievements would likely be limited, stopping at the early or middle stages of the Dao Foundation.

Currently, many Perfected Qi Refining cultivators remaining in the Federation are deeply cultivating this path, striving to accumulate profound Daoist cultivation, phenomena, and imagery before their physical state begins to decline at the age of 60.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist, on constructing your Dao Foundation. From this point on, you shall enjoy a lifespan of 800 years and transcend the mundane."

Before Li Mingxiao could carefully organize his gains after advancing to the Dao Foundation, a deep voice carrying an imposing presence came from afar.

Looking up, three majestic auras descended rapidly.

Compared to his own white lotus magical power, a sense of the difference between a firefly and the bright moon arose spontaneously.

"Which seniors have arrived?"

The three streams of light landed on the peak of the snowy mountain and looked at Li Mingxiao as equals. The figures of two women and one man appeared, letting the person who had worked at the Supernatural University for a long time immediately understand who they were.

"Junior Li Mingxiao respectfully welcomes the three Real Persons: Tianxin, Tianping, and Tianli. I am overwhelmed with trepidation."

Upon landing, everyone reined in their own auras to avoid scaring the "little friend."

"Fellow Daoist, there is no need for this. Now that you have achieved the Dao Foundation, you are one of us and should have a supernatural spirit."

"Real Person Tianxin is absolutely right; this junior will remember it. I just don't know why I am worthy of having three adults who hold the civilization's destiny in their hands come to observe the ceremony."

"Do you know that your purification imagery, which has pioneered a new Dao Foundation cultivation system, has some utility for my Master's layout regarding the Heavenly River Water?"

Hearing the Real Person say this, Li Mingxiao understood. He had truly deeply understood the major trends pushed by the Human Federation over the past decade or so, which was how he achieved the Dao.

"Junior gained inspiration precisely from the promotion of the Heavenly River Water spirit object refining method, and through this, deeply developed the white lotus spirit plant with pure imagery. It was only by obtaining much Qi fortune that I reached this day. It is an honor to be of help to the Heavenly River Real Person."

After chatting for a while, Li Mingxiao knew that his persistence over the years had been correct. On the path of the Heavenly Talisman Dao Foundation Cultivator, as long as one acts in accordance with the major trends, one will naturally have smooth sailing and be blessed with Qi fortune.
