Chapter 136: Raising One's Spirit Sword
y strong, they could leave at any time. It was precisely their posture that stopped Qin Sang from acting rashly.This was a so-called opportunity that could be fatal at any moment. Qin Sang didn't even...The Xuanming Tortoise Shell Formation both concealed and defended, perfectly meeting Qin Sang's requirements. After thanking Master Yu, Qin Sang put away the formation flags of the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Formation.
Lord Yu got up and returned to the inner hall, taking out the disciple jade tablet. He moved Qin Sang's name from the foundation-building disciples' jade tablet.
The instant the name was written, a faint light flashed on the jade tablet, condensing into a jade waist token.
After changing to the Foundation Establishment disciple's token, one can enjoy the benefits of a Foundation Establishment disciple. Qin Sang looked forward most to this: newly entered Foundation Establishment disciples could, within a month, freely view the cultivation techniques collected by Taosha Peak with their tokens and could choose a cultivation technique for free to cultivate.
"These five medium-grade spirit stones are the sect's reward for Foundation Establishment disciples. This is a one-time reward, but there will be an annual event afterwards. You can choose from spirit stones, spirit herbs, and other items at your discretion, with varying values. Originally, the sect would also reward a cave dwelling, but since Junior Brother Qin chose to cultivate his own cave dwelling outside, he can go directly to the Spirit Beast Hall. According to sect rules, Foundation Establishment disciples are not required to perform any menial tasks. However, the sect has many affairs that Qi Refining disciples cannot complete, and the rewards for assisting are quite generous. The Ancient Immortal Battlefield is the most rewarding among them. If Junior Brother Qin is interested, he can take on some tasks. But, if the sect issues a decree assigning a task, you must do your best and complete it wholeheartedly. You are not allowed to disobey under any pretext, otherwise, you will be charged with betraying the sect. In the future, Junior Brother Qin must..."

The sect leader spoke eloquently, summing up the rights and responsibilities of disciples in the foundation-building stage.

Compared to the Qi Refining Period, Shaohua Mountain is incredibly lenient towards its Foundation Establishment disciples. Aside from rarely encountered sect edicts, Foundation Establishment disciples have a great deal of freedom.
If you're short on cash, go to the Headmaster's Peak and look for something to do.
I want to retreat and practice diligently, closing off my cave dwelling so that no one disturbs me.
When a disciple is undergoing their breakthrough to the Core Formation stage, their sect will provide them with free spirit materials to aid in the process. These may not be the best materials available, but they are excellent items that solitary cultivators would struggle to obtain.
A difference in realms, a disparity in status, Qin Sang couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
The two chatted for a while longer, and Qin Sang had learned enough. Anyway, Yu Zhangmen knew him inside and out, so he stopped pretending and cupped his hands together: "I didn't want to bother Senior Brother Zhangmen any further, but I'm shallow-minded and know very little about cultivation after the Foundation Establishment stage. I haven't been able to decide which technique to choose. Please, Senior Brother Zhangmen, don't be stingy with your advice!"
"Master Yu asked Qin, 'Do you have any ideas of your own'"
Of course, Qin Sang had already considered this. The Jade Buddha protected one's primordial spirit; after being absorbed, its only effect on him would be his foundation. Repairing his foundation was a must, otherwise, he wouldn't even think about forming a golden elixir in the future.
"I wonder if there's any technique that can replenish one's vital energy and restore their foundation"
Lord Yu cast a deep glance at Qin Sang, as if he had expected his choice long ago, and said: “Ba Pagoda Peak indeed treasures several powerful techniques for repairing one’s foundation..."

Before Qin Sang could show joy, Yu Zhangmen suddenly changed his tone, "It's just that your situation is different from others, brother Qin. What you lost was the most fundamental Yuan Qi. Only heaven-born treasures can repair your foundation. These techniques are not as effective as Jiuyang Dan, Brother Qin best not waste time on them."
Upon hearing this, Qin Sang's expression flickered slightly, shaking his head with a wry smile. He had anticipated this outcome, but he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
"Senior Brother, you know my talent very well. But I'm not willing to accept it. I wonder if there's any technique that could allow me to reach the Nascent Soul stage before I die"
"The sect master, Yu, comforted Qin Sang for a few words and said, 'Since disciple Qin has this wish, he should choose a cultivation method with relatively easier progress. However, most of these methods lack self-preservation divine abilities. If there are no other means to overcome the enemy, when fighting others in the future, they will inevitably be at a disadvantage. When encountering opponents of the same realm, they will have to dodge. This defect is not obvious in normal times, but once traveling outside and competing for opportunities with others, because of insufficient strength, they will not even have the qualification to intervene, only regret it afterwards. If disciple Qin can accept it, Baotashan Peak has... etc., all are this type of cultivation method."
Upon hearing this, Qin Sang's brow furrowed slightly. He secretly worried that his foundation was damaged and his dantian was already a tenth smaller than that of fellow cultivators at the same level. If he chose this kind of cultivation method, how could he ever compete with others in the future
The cultivation world isn't about just solitary ascetic training to improve one's cultivation. Many times, it also involves conflict and competition with others.
For example, in the case of forming a Golden Core, apart from those with the Heavenly Spirit Root who are naturally gifted, who isn't someone who has traveled extensively for many years, vying for every opportunity to increase their chances of successfully forming a Golden Core
Could it be that in the future, I'll only be able to shrink into my shell and let opportunities slip away
However, Qin Sang was not naive. He understood that powerful supernatural abilities could give a significant advantage in magical battles, and such techniques were undoubtedly extremely difficult to cultivate. They were indeed not suitable for him.
Just then, Qin Sang suddenly felt a stir in his heart and asked, "Senior Brother, since the first day I joined Shaohua Mountain, I've often heard about Senior Qingzhu's legend. It is said that Senior Qingzhu wasn't at the top in terms of talent. Not only was her cultivation speed extremely fast, but her strength was also no weaker than others. I wonder what kind of martial arts technique did Senior Qingzhu practice"
"You're talking about that martial arts technique!"
To Qin Sang's surprise, the sect leader Yu and his former master Wen both displayed a hint of fear when they mentioned Senior Qingzhu's methods.
"That technique is called... Besides Senior Qingzhu, no one else on Shaohua Mountain has ever cultivated it. It's not just because the technique is only a fragment; the bigger reason is that this technique has terrifying requirements for cultivators, something that ordinary people simply can't achieve. Junior Brother Qin, go to Baotashan Peak and you'll see why."

As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Sang became even more curious.
Especially the names of martial arts techniques that contain the word "Yuanshen" stirred his heart, making him daydream.
After chatting with Elder Yu for a long time on Zhandao Peak, the jade scroll on the table remained completely still.
Elder Yu looked at Qin Sang with a strange expression and said in an awkward tone, "No Jindan master is willing to take Qin Shixiong as a disciple, and Master Ma also hasn't responded... But don't be discouraged, Qin Shixiong. There are many fellow disciples who cultivate alone. As long as you work hard and practice diligently, you will definitely stand out and be noticed by the masters."

Such jade books are also found in the cave dwellings of every cultivator who has attained the Golden Core realm.
When a disciple's name falls on the jade tablet during the Foundation Establishment period, other jade tablets will also receive the message. If a Golden Core cultivator happens to see it and thinks the child has good talent, they will accept them as a disciple.
Although it may not be possible to receive careful guidance from a Golden Core cultivator, it is still much better than fumbling around alone.

Qin Sang had a premonition, it wasn't disappointment exactly, but she felt that Elder Yu's attitude had grown subtly colder. With a sigh, she immediately bid farewell to Elder Yu and returned to Baotashan Peak.
Upon arriving at the hall where treasured cultivation techniques and incantations were kept, Qin Sang encountered an old acquaintance - the Consolidator cultivator surnamed Gong who had refused to become a cauldron furnace.g ostracized and suppressed by heaven and earth, but that inexplicable sense of pressure was definitely real.A cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage has yet to reach their full potential and can only m...
