Chapter 425: Chapter 189: Initial Entry into Foundation Establishment, Overpowering Nangong 1

At the peak of Qing Mountain, surrounded by soft white clouds.

Two figures sat opposite each other, strands of tea scent lingered between them.

An expression of amazement was still evident on Nangong Jin’s face.

“You really succeeded?”

His voice was tinged with disbelief.

Luo Chen gave a slight smile as he fanned the lingering heat on his tea cup.

He took a sip.

“Phew…. Friend, as you can see, could there be anything false about this?”

As he spoke, a burst of rampant spirit consciousness suddenly burst outward.

Nangong Jin’s face was serious as he also released his spirit consciousness.

This only lasted an instant.

The two collided and then immediately retracted.

“Hm!”

Nangong Jin snorted softly; his face turned a shade of pale for a fleeting moment.

His face showed shock as he stared at Luo Chen.

“Your divine soul endowment is astonishingly robust for someone who just started Foundation Establishment!”

Luo Chen apologized with a smile.

“I apologize, my level hasn’t stabilized yet and I could not retract my aggression, thus causing offense to you.”

Nangong Jin waved his hand indicating it was not a problem.

Their simple collision of spirit consciousness was just like ordinary people wrestling, not as serious as a life and death battle.

What shocked him was Luo Chen’s robust spirit consciousness despite being a newly initiated Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Releasing your spirit consciousness is an extension of the divine soul.

With spirit consciousness this strong, it only means that Luo Chen’s divine soul endowment far surpasses his peers.

He said with a bitter smile, “No wonder you were able to succeed in one move. You must have already reached completion stage of divine soul during the Qi Refinement Stage.”

“This way, when you break through to Foundation Establishment, you can easily control the spirit power inside your body and accurately attack the Dantian barrier.”

Yes, only this explanation made sense.

Otherwise, how could Luo Chen ascend to this level so quickly!

Many outstanding rogue cultivators and sect elites, during Foundation Establishment, are overwhelmed by the violent effects of the medicinal pill, ending in failure.

Even if they manage to break through the Dantian barrier, due to the lack of time, they fail to control the rampant spirit power, causing considerable damage to their bodies.

Luo Chen responded with silent smiles, but sighed inwardly.

He also came through many failures.

The strength of his divine soul endowment certainly had benefits.

Without this strong divine soul, he wouldn’t have been able to use Foundation Establishment Pill and Emperor Liquor to achieve Foundation Establishment.

Moreover, his physical strength was also key in his success.

Ordinary people attempting Foundation Establishment usually end up physically hurt.

However, he has consistently used Nourishing Origin Liquid and Gold-Quality Jade Liquid along with Demon Beast meat and Spirit Rice.

So, he has developed a formidable physical strength.

By Wang Yuan’s standards, Luo Chen’s was very close to having a Vajra body.

In other words, he was already on the brink of completion of the first realm of body refinement.

Due to all these factors and the accumulation from repetitious use of Foundation Establishment Pill and Emperor Liquour.

He managed to exceed the expected levels in spirit power challenge, divine soul challenge and physical challenge, hence his success in one attempt.

If Nangong Jin knew that Luo Chen used five doses of Foundation Establishment Spirit Medicine at once, he would no doubt curse “He deserves his Foundation Establishment success!”

Of course, the reasons for this, Luo Chen naturally did not tell Nangong Jin.

Now, he had another problem troubling him.

“Friend, do you have a copy of Yi Mu Medicine King Sutra?”

“Yi Mu Medicine King Sutra?” Nangong Jin raised his eyebrows, then reacted, “You still don’t have a second order technique cultivation method?”

Seeing Luo Chen nod.

He asked with confusion, “It shouldn’t be like this. The Duan Family, being a three-hundred-year-old Foundation Establishment family, definitely have suitable cultivation techniques.”

“Yes, they do, but unfortunately none of them are suitable for me.”

Luo Chen responded, a look of bewilderment crossing his face.

The Duan family’s Book Collection Pavilion did in fact have three second order techniques.

“Ocean-Breaking Mantra”

“Ding Fire One Qi Technique”

“Youquan Underworld Fire”

The first two are the primary cultivation techniques of the Duan Family. One is water, the other is fire, both suitable for tool casting.

People like Duan Qiankun and Duan Feng usually cultivated these two techniques.

The latter was a technique specifically found by Duan Qiankun for his grandson Duan Rui.

It was said to allow simultaneous cultivation of water and fire, making it unparalleled in battle!

With Luo Chen’s five elements spirit root, technically he could change his practice to any of these three techniques without any problems.

Especially “Youquan Underworld Fire”, if he mastered it, his combat power would greatly increase.

Moreover, he wasn’t worried that this technique would not suit him.

Because he had the system.

Slowly, as he increased his proficiency, it would eventually match his body.

What made Luo Chen hesitate was the Longevity Technique!

The technique had reached finalization and if he could seamlessly connect it with the Yi Mu Medicine King Sutra, he could save a lot of time used for basic training and quickly enter the beginner stage.

If he changed to cultivating the distinctly different “Youquan Underworld Fire”, even getting at the beginner stage would be a big problem.

He wasn’t sure how much time he would need.

So after much thought, he decided to choose “Yi Mu Medicine King Sutra”.

In response to Luo Chen’s question, if it had been the old Nangong Jin, he would have definitely refused outright.

But now, times have changed!

Luo Chen had already reached Foundation Establishment and was now of the same order as him.

In the Luo Tian Creed, there was a second order blast ape and Wang Yuan, an individual capable of fighting against Foundation Establishment cultivators.

This level of strength meant that he had to take them seriously.

After some thought, he came up with an idea.

“I don’t have that scripture. After all, my Nangong family comes from Xuelian District, where most of the techniques are of water, ice, and wind types.”

“However, here at The Great River District, there might be someone who has what you are looking for.”
