Starting From A Fisherman To Cultivate Immortality And Live Forever

Chapter 112: Breakthrough to Foundation Building is Just Ahead!

Thousand Arms and Ten Thousand Hands, the Great Freedom Dharma Image Supernatural Power.

It is one of the most potential and expensive supernatural powers provided by the Great Golden Light Temple.

The reason why it ranks third in the exchange ranking of the Merit List is simply because the materials required for the first two supernatural powers have become extinct, resulting in an artificially inflated overall value.

In terms of comprehensive ability, there is not much difference among the top ten supernatural powers. It depends more on whether the user is compatible enough.

Su Ping obtained the seed of the supernatural power. He thought that even now, he would have to go back to the Pot in the Heavenly Realm to study slowly in order to have a chance to get started.

But unexpectedly, when the seed of the supernatural power resonated with the Immortal Scripture, his divine sense was activated and spontaneously accepted the seed.

Su Ping suddenly stepped into the threshold of the supernatural power naturally.

With a thought, a strand of divine sense combined with mana and turned into a pair of translucent arms over two meters long.

These arms, like divine sense, can be controlled at will, and can even merge into a large hand to enhance strength.

"No wonder the supernatural power generally requires the completion of Qi Refining to barely get started. Only after Foundation Building can it be considered to possess a little supernatural power."

"The Thousand Arms and Ten Thousand Hands produced by my supernatural power are actually closely related to divine sense!"

"It seems that other supernatural powers are similar, but the manifestations may be different! This explains why supernatural powers can be instantly activated. After all, it is a method of materializing one's own divine sense!"

"Although I am only at the ninth level of Qi Refining, my divine sense far exceeds the level of a Qi Refining perfectionist and reaches the level of a Foundation Building cultivator."

"Perhaps because of this foundation, I can learn the Thousand Arms and Ten Thousand Hands, the Great Freedom Dharma Image Supernatural Power, and achieve success easily!"

While Su Ping was contemplating next to the Merit Monument.

The Zen Monk was already dumbfounded.

Behind the Zen Monk, the abbot of this place also walked over, looking at Su Ping, who was playing the role of the White Crane Boy, with a complicated expression.

"This kid is only in the late stage of Qi Refining, but he can directly get started with a certain kind of supernatural power?"

"Looking at the illusion behind him just now, it seems to be a supernatural power of our Buddhist sect!"

"Could it be that this kid has a connection with our Buddhist sect?"

The abbot thought to himself, and when Su Ping came back to his senses, he smiled and congratulated him on his entry into the supernatural power. At least half of the difficulty of Foundation Building had been overcome.

As for the remaining half...

The abbot extended an olive branch.

As long as Su Ping agreed to go to the Great Golden Light Temple with him.

He could guarantee that he would provide Su Ping with a Foundation Building Pill and a second-grade superior spiritual vein in a cave, greatly increasing Su Ping's chances of Foundation Building!

This treatment was very generous for cultivators from small sects.

However, Su Ping, after a slight shock, decisively rejected the abbot's kind offer.

With a serious expression, he sincerely declared, "The Crane Reflecting the Moon and Listening to the Wind has never let me down, and I will never let down the Crane Reflecting the Moon and Listening to the Wind!"

This made the Zen Monk behind the abbot secretly admire him.

The abbot also couldn't persuade him any further, but he silently remembered the name of the Crane Reflecting the Moon and Listening to the Wind. He thought that he must find his senior brother after returning to find out which sect he came from. It was unexpected that such an outstanding disciple could be cultivated!

Although the Great Golden Light Temple would not resort to coercion, they could still cooperate and communicate with each other, allowing the disciples from both sides to come and enjoy a better environment for cultivation and learn from each other. It would be a win-win situation.

After exchanging for the supernatural power, the main goal had been achieved.

Su Ping no longer delayed and bid farewell to the temple.

Immediately, he left the Jin Yun Mountain Marketplace without any nostalgia.

Not long after he left in a hurry.

The Merit Monument in the Jin Yun Mountain Marketplace was also moved to another place.

And, along the line of the Jinyunshan Fangshi mountain range, a large area to the north is also being abandoned by major forces without hesitation.

Such actions are seen by those who are observant. Although they don't know what has happened, they hold the idea that following the big powers will never go wrong.

The cultivation families and mortal families in the north have also begun to move south again.

The Huzhongdongtian.

After Su Ping obtained the divine ability and returned to the Linyue Villa, he immersed himself in the process of familiarizing himself with the Thousand Arms and Ten Thousand Arms Great Freedom Divine Ability.

The transformation into a thousand arms and ten thousand arms is an efficient and concrete transformation of divine consciousness, enabling it to undergo a qualitative change. It is also a high-consumption behavior in terms of energy.

Fortunately, the concentration of spiritual energy in the Huzhongdongtian has already exceeded that of a second-grade superior spiritual vein.

While supporting the consumption, Su Ping, who does not have superior Qi-replenishing pills, can also use fishing coins to exchange for better mana replenishing pills to support the consumption.

Therefore, the refining of the divine ability went smoothly as expected.

Three days later, Su Ping slowly opened his eyes in the Zhaoyue Tingfeng Pavilion and flew to the front yard to stretch his body for a moment.

Under the gentle and clear sunlight, accompanied by a gentle breeze, a figure at least ten meters tall appeared behind Su Ping. It exuded a sacred and mysterious aura, emitting a faint golden light, giving off an inviolable charm.

The features of the divine figure were not clear, and the details on its body were also extremely vague.

However, several semi-transparent arms, ranging from a few meters to tens of meters long, extended from its back.

Each of these arms had the ability to easily change their size, with the smallest being similar to Su Ping's hands.

The largest could grow several meters long, matching the ten-meter-tall divine figure behind it.

In addition, these divine arms could merge together to form a giant hand resembling a mountain, delivering a divine version of the Rulai Palm!

"Hundred Arms, Hundred Hands!"

"Is this the limit of divine abilities in the Qi Refining stage?"

"The limit in the Foundation Building stage is the Thousand Arms, Thousand Hands!"

"And in the Gold Core stage, it is considered a true achievement in divine abilities, and only then can there be a chance to form a true Thousand Arms and Ten Thousand Arms Great Freedom Divine Ability!"

"And if you really want to cultivate a divine figure, like the Asura Divine Figure provided as a reference by the Dajinguang Temple, or the Compassionate Bodhisattva Divine Figure, you have to reach the Nascent Soul stage, right?"

Feeling the full power of the divine ability, Su Ping soon felt his mana depleting and his spirit becoming exhausted.

After maintaining it for five seconds, Su Ping returned to his original state and landed slowly.

"I can maintain this state at full power for five seconds, after which I must drink a potion."

"And the divine consciousness cannot be restored by drinking potions, so even if I drink a potion, it will only extend it by five seconds, otherwise it will be a loss to the soul."

"But... five seconds should be enough!"

"Others use a hundred arms and hundred hands while using magical tools, talismans, and flying swords."

"As someone who has the Water Blue Star as a logistical base, I can fully cooperate with my own divine ability and prepare modern weapons for these arms to use."

"Not only is the power impressive, but the key is that I don't need to consume extra mana to activate those magical tools, talismans, and flying swords."

"At least in the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stages, my configuration should have the advantage!"

"And this is still without Foundation Building. After Foundation Building, divine consciousness will increase again, and my endurance should also be extended!"

"Let's set a small goal first, to make the divine figure last for more than a minute!"

Su Ping learned the divine ability.

Through the interaction and changes between the divine ability and divine consciousness, he gradually gained many insights that he didn't have before in Foundation Building.

In the blink of an eye, another week passed.

After fishing in two locations and feasting on dozens of pounds of spiritual rice and fake dragon blood fish meat.

Su Ping suddenly felt something in his heart and realized that his body tempering and Qi Refining had reached the peak of the ninth level, unable to advance any further.

According to the instructions of the cultivation method, the thin membrane of the soul that should have loosened at this time did not happen because Su Ping had already obtained divine consciousness.

However, Su Ping still knew that he had reached the elusive realm that the outer disciples had been talking about.

If it were someone else, they would have diligently trained in various skills for Foundation Building, even engaging in battles with the help of a powerful soul to earn spiritual stones, accumulate experience and merits, and then try to learn a divine ability that suited them.

As long as they could grasp a divine ability, they would be considered outstanding among the Qi Refining cultivators, and they would have the opportunity to obtain Foundation Building pills or other Foundation Building spiritual objects, thus gaining the chance to build their foundation.

But these things, Su Ping either already had or... Su Ping didn't need them!

The role of Foundation Building pills is to increase the success rate of Foundation Building, and they can also save one's life after a failed Foundation Building.

Even without the help of Foundation Building pills, a Qi Refining cultivator can still build their foundation on their own.

However, the failure rate of such Foundation Building has always been high.

Especially in the current cultivation world, who can guarantee that they have never eaten meat or pills from problematic demonic beasts in their lifetime?

And this in turn affects the breakthrough probability of Foundation Building.

Therefore, over the past thousand years, it has become common knowledge among most lower-level cultivators that Foundation Building is almost impossible without Foundation Building pills.

In immortal cultivation novels, there are still examples of peerless geniuses who successfully build their foundation on their own, which not only amazes the audience but also avoids further questioning.

After all, the founding ancestors of the existing major sects in their written records were all people who built their foundation on their own.

Anyone who opposes this is questioning the records of the major sects!

Moreover, building one's foundation on one's own does indeed have advantages compared to taking Foundation Building pills.

It is said that the foundation is more solid, and there are more benefits to the soul and physical body.

Therefore, it is almost always the case that the true inheritances of the top immortal sects are built on their own.

But this rumor has never received any response from the immortal sects.

However, after Su Ping obtained divine consciousness, he faintly felt that this should be true.

Building one's foundation on one's own can maximize the benefits of successful Foundation Building!

And he himself, relying on the purification elixirs and life elixirs, is not afraid of the punishment for failed Foundation Building!

So even if the probability is a bit low, he can still rely on multiple attempts.

And Su Ping silently calculated his advantages: his divine consciousness is no worse than Foundation Building, his Ten-Fold Annihilation Body accounts for thirty percent, and he has already mastered a divine ability.

Plus, a very crucial point is that he has purified his soul by taking the purification elixir, completely eliminating the impurities and physical defects accumulated from pills and food.

In terms of the purity of the body, he is probably even better than those true inheritances!

After all, through their years of cultivation, their bodies will inevitably have some undetectable hidden injuries.

This is not something that can be avoided just by not eating pills below a certain quality.

Therefore, except for his spiritual roots and state of mind, Su Ping feels that he surpasses his peers in all other aspects.

If he still can't build his foundation on his own, then he is not worthy of being called a cultivator!

Su Ping went to the Water Blue Star and spent three days visiting over a hundred famous mountains and rivers.

Finally, he arrived at the edge of the world and watched a sunset that did not sink into the sea.

Su Ping felt something in his heart and returned to the cultivation world.

Then, after transforming into the appearance of a young white crane, he went straight to the Cloud Mountain Market.

He was ready to build his foundation here, creating a new image of a lone cultivator who successfully builds his foundation on his own.

After all, a lucky lone cultivator who is seen as successful in building their foundation is completely different from a sudden outsider who builds their foundation in the eyes of various forces in the vicinity!

Spending spiritual stones, Su Ping rented the best cave in the Cloud Mountain Market.

Su Ping moved in and activated formations one after another to shield the outside world's detection of his aura.

Outside the cave.

Some cultivators learned about someone going into seclusion.

At first, no one paid much attention. After the Qixin Sect took over the Yunsan Market, more and more foreign cultivators came running.

It's normal for someone to suddenly feel the need to go into seclusion and comprehend things.

However!

As time passed by...

The aura of Su Ping's residence, which was like a formation that even concealed the heavens and earth, couldn't hide it anymore.

They deduced that someone had already reached the Qi Refining stage and was preparing for Foundation Building!

Suddenly, this caught the attention of many people in the Yunsan Market.

After all, although there were some cultivators who went to the market for Foundation Building without the assistance of a sect, they were extremely rare.

And most of these cultivators ended up failing.

"They are not the people from the famous cultivation families in the Chiyuan Immortal Gate's territory."

"Nor are they the cultivators from the well-known sects with a name and surname."

"Interesting, could it be those unknown small sects that have reached the Qi Refining stage?"

"Recently, the territory has been restless. It's possible that some remnants of the annihilated sects from the Southern Wilderness have escaped here."

"That's indeed possible! I heard that the Water Moon Sect, which had reached the Foundation Building stage, was annihilated. We even received a notice about the reward for the remnants."

"There have been quite a few smaller sects that have been annihilated during this time when cultivators who have reached the Qi Refining stage can appear."

"Yes, recently, there have been more and more evil spirits..."

When it came to evil spirits, the representatives of the various shops in the Yunsan Market became gloomy.

Then, they looked towards Su Ping's residence with a hint of anticipation.

At times like this, having one more Foundation Building cultivator without a solid foundation to help would always be better.

However... even if they were lucky enough to obtain Foundation Building pills or spiritual objects, the chances of a cultivator who had lost the protection and assistance of a sect reaching Foundation Building were still too low!

Even some well-established cultivation families secretly thought that the other party was particularly unwise.

If they had reached the Qi Refining stage and lost the support of their sect, why didn't they come to their big families for help?

At most, they would let him marry two or three women from their own family, and then leave behind two or three children. After that, they would provide manpower and resources to help with Foundation Building.

Wouldn't that be better than the current situation?

Inside the residence...

"This is the third time!"

Su Ping took a purifying spirit medicine and cleared the aftermath of the failed Foundation Building.

In the previous two attempts at Foundation Building, Su Ping had failed. However, he found that perhaps it was due to the Tenfold Annihilation Body combined with his clean body, the injuries he suffered from the failed Foundation Building were not severe.

Normally, even without taking medicine, he would be able to slowly recover.

However, Su Ping didn't have the time to rest slowly, so he chose to drink medicine to solve the problem and make use of the experience from his failures to try again.

"But this time, I have a feeling... there won't be any accidents!"

As Su Ping became more skilled, he easily entered the state of the third Foundation Building.

Su Ping found that this time, his heart became particularly calm.

Then, as if receiving some kind of enlightenment...

Su Ping knew that the time had come!

The breakthrough to Foundation Building was right in front of him!
