Chapter 335: Encountering a Foundation Establishment Cultivator
The time traveler was deeply impressed by the first group of immortal cultivators he encountered in Qingfei Town.
"If that's the case, it's quite interesting."
He thought with interest.
After thinking about it, he looked at the jade bottle in his hand.
"Forget it, let's improve our cultivation first..."
After sitting cross-legged and adjusting his state, he took the Barrier Breaking Pill.
[Day 128: Your cultivation has reached the ninth level of Qi training...]
Feeling the power surge again, the time traveler was in a good mood.
Then, he opened the box containing the spirit-enhancing pill.
[You took the Spirit Enhancement Pill, and your cultivation has improved slightly...]
[Day 130: Your cultivation has reached the ninth level of Qi training...]
Once again reaching perfection, the traversing body, as expected, fell into the distress of a bottleneck again.
There were only eleven spirit-enhancing pills left in the box, but he had no way to upgrade any more, and was extremely troubled.
If you want to break through, you must get another barrier-breaking pill, otherwise you can only rely on time.
But it is easy to imagine that something like the Barrier Breaking Pill must be very precious. Where would there be so many of them for him to take?
The time traveler sighed, "I can only rely on hard work to slowly break through the bottleneck."
Thinking of this, he picked up another spirit-enhancing pill and tried to use it to break through the bottleneck.
[131st Day: You failed to break through the bottleneck...]
[Day 132: You failed to break through the bottleneck...]
[Day 133: The spiritual arts you have newly mastered have successively reached the realm of minor success.]
After finishing all the spirit-enhancing pills and even developing a certain drug resistance, and using up all the resources he could, but still failing to make a breakthrough, the time-traveling body could no longer hold back and prepared to go out again to look for opportunities.
[Day 134: You go out to Yanshan again.]
[Your talent of the Son of Luck is triggered! ]
[At the bottom of a cliff, you found a corpse, and on top of it, a thousand-year-old spiritual flower...]
At the bottom of the misty cliff, a group of bones lay on the ground.
[From the rotten smell it emits, you can tell that this skeleton is quite old.]
On the bones, there grew a pale white flower that looked a bit like a rose. It swayed gently, emitting a gloomy aura.
Looking at the white flowers on the corpse of the suspected immortal cultivator, the time traveler's heart moved.
He felt the spiritual energy from it. Although its attributes were somewhat yin, it was extremely powerful.
He glanced around the corpse to make sure there were no ferocious beasts guarding it, and the next second he was about to go forward and pick the fruits.
However, he had just taken a few steps closer when a loud shout rang out from behind him.
"What do you want to do, kid?!"
The time-traveling body was startled and turned to look behind him.
I didn't know when, but about ten meters behind me, a person appeared and hovered in the air with a flying sword under his feet.
The other person was about thirty years old, wearing black clothes, and had a very sinister look on his face.
The traversing body felt a chill in its heart.
He didn't even notice this person appearing just now. Even now, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have felt that there was a person behind him, and he didn't detect any breath at all.
Most importantly, there was something wrong with this man's eyes.
At this moment, this person's dark eyes were flashing with intense greed.
And the focus of his gaze was exactly the thousand-year-old spiritual flower on the white bones.
At this moment, seeing him turn his head, the middle-aged man was shocked for a while.
Immortal?
After a while, the middle-aged man calmed down, frowned and asked in a sharp voice, "Sir, what do you want to do with my spiritual flower?"
"Yours?" The time-traveling body was speechless.
The middle-aged man asked, "It's not mine, could it be yours?"
Then, he said something that was either true or fabricated, "I just got rid of the beast guarding the Yin Bone Flower, and you want to take the opportunity to steal it?"
The time traveler frowned, not knowing whether his words were true or not.
After taking a look at the glowing spiritual flowers on the bones, and thinking about the imperceptible aura of the middle-aged man, I decided to be cautious...
After thinking for a while, he didn't want to take any risks. He was just about to say he wanted to leave, but before he could say anything, he heard the middle-aged man say, "But you don't have to leave, kid. Just stay and accompany this rotten skeleton."
As he spoke, the man glanced at the storage bag on his body, and his thoughts were self-evident.
Just now, he sensed a divine consciousness carefully scanning his body, as if it was spying on his cultivation.
Presumably, this is also the reason why this person changed his attitude.
Feeling this feeling of being spied on, the time traveler's face turned cold.
"Just a mere ninth level of Qi training..." the middle-aged man laughed and casually sent out a spiritual spell.
boom!
A blue water dragon roared and rushed towards the traveling body.
After delivering this attack, Jin Fuguang looked away.
He's just a kid at the ninth level of Qi training. He can be dealt with with just one blow.
Not only can you kill a person with one strike, but you can also get a storage bag in return. Why not do such a good thing?
Although the kid's cultivation level is low, his experience has taught him that one should not estimate what is in a person's storage bag based on his or her cultivation level.
Who knows, there might be some good stuff in this kid’s storage bag!
However, just when he thought he had victory, things often turned out to be unexpected.
"Foundation Building Stage?"
Feeling the oppressive aura emanating from the water dragon, the face of the time-traveling entity changed.
Then, he did not dare to hold back or be careless at all and used all his strength.
Three water arrows appeared in the blink of an eye!
The spiritual art of great perfection!
Next is the artistic conception, 80% of the artistic conception is directly attached!
Not only that, 70% of the spiritual energy in his body disappeared at once!
Because he realized that perfect spiritual arts and artistic conception alone were not enough, he directly injected 70% of his spiritual energy into his spiritual arts this time.
The effect of this combination is terrifying, directly increasing the power of the three water arrows!
If the opponent is just an ordinary Qi training master who has reached the tenth level, he will be killed instantly!
Even geniuses are not immune!
Because the power of these three water arrows has barely reached the level of the spiritual arts that the Foundation Establishment cultivator not far away casually unleashed!
In a flash, three water arrows collided with the water dragon with a bang.
Boom boom boom!
The powerful energy exploded, creating a huge wind that blew everything around into chaos.
"What!"
Jin Fuguang, who was originally staring at the Yin Bone Flower, was stunned and stared at the location of the explosion.
The water dragon he sent out was actually blocked by a guy who was at the ninth level of Qi training?
"How is this possible!?"
He couldn't believe it.
There is an insurmountable gap between the Qi Training Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage; the two are simply not on the same level!
Even the weakest cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage could easily kill a guy who has reached the Great Perfection of Qi Training with a single blow, let alone him.
Even though he cast the water dragon very casually, it still contained 20% of the power of artistic conception!
With his initial stage of foundation building and his spiritual skills that added 20% of artistic conception, how could he be blocked by a guy at the ninth stage of Qi training?
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it.
Suddenly, he remembered something and his expression changed.
Although his attention had been focused on the Yin Bone Flower just now, he still felt some things, such as the aura that appeared when the little ghost released spiritual magic.
"Is that artistic conception? Eighty percent of the power of artistic conception?" He looked shocked.
The speed at which that little ghost released his spiritual arts was abnormally fast, and it seemed that it was a spiritual art of the perfect level?
All these combined could explain why the opponent was able to withstand his casual attack.
How can there be such perverted people in the world?
"Is he a talented disciple of a powerful force?"
After a moment of unbelievable imagination, a sneer appeared on his gloomy face, "What if he is a genius from a powerful force? Even if he is a monstrous genius, it is useless!"
"The gap between Qi training and foundation building is not something you can cross!"
To deliver that blow, the young man must have used all his strength, and the consumption must have been considerable!
And it was just a casual attack from me, how could he resist afterwards?
He was excited at the thought of defeating the evil genius.
No matter how talented you are, you can still lose to me, right?
He smiled smugly.
However, just as he was about to continue his attack, he saw that not long after the spiritual battle, a water arrow suddenly flew towards the Yin Bone Flower.
Jin Fuguang's face changed and he shouted, "How dare you!"
In his haste, he didn't bother to attack, and quickly flashed in front of Yin Guhua, using defensive magic.
A blue water shield appeared, protecting the Yin Bone Flower firmly.
Seeing this scene, Jin Fuguang breathed a sigh of relief, but then became furious the next second and wanted to teach the young man a lesson.
However , when he turned around, he found that the young man had already disappeared from the spot and had run away.
"Hmph, you're pretty quick."
Jin Fuguang sneered.
After thinking about it, he gave up the idea of chasing.
Since he has already escaped, and might be a talented disciple of a powerful force, it would be troublesome if he died like this, so let him be let go for now.
…
“Huff…”
The time traveler who used the light magic to escape from the scene leaned against the stone wall and gasped slightly.
"I didn't expect the gap between me and the Foundation Establishment Stage to be so huge?"
He felt powerless again.
He used all his trump cards, but he could only barely block one attack.
If I hadn't taken advantage of the other party's inattention, I might have been in trouble this time!
I am still too weak!
"No wonder Zhang Shoushan and the others said that before. They were angry about the participation of the Foundation Establishment Realm. If we really meet someone in the Foundation Establishment Realm, how can we fight him?"
The time-traveling body recalled what happened that day and sighed secretly.
The Foundation Establishment cultivator encountered this time should be very ordinary, without extraordinary talent and combat power.
If even someone like this has this level of strength, wouldn't those geniuses who can reach the Foundation Establishment Stage before the age of 26 be even more powerful?
Thinking of this, he felt more and more powerless.
"Alas, I am still too weak. I need to improve my strength as soon as possible."
He turned around and took a deep look in the direction of escape, then took a step forward and began to move away.
Using the art of lightness, his body became extremely light and graceful like a fairy, constantly passing through the mountains.
[Day 135: You become increasingly aware of the inadequacy of your own strength and begin to work harder, searching for spiritual objects during the day and practicing your newly acquired spiritual arts at night.]
[You gain nothing...]
[Day 136: Your talent as the Son of Luck is triggered, and you find a hundred-year-old spiritual tree.]
[Using water arrows to repel a group of animals on the tree, you successfully obtained the tree. ]
[After taking a bunch of spiritual fruits from the tree, your spiritual essence will become deeper and deeper, and you will be one step closer to a breakthrough...]
[143rd day: At night, you practice your new spiritual arts and suddenly feel that your spiritual arts have changed.]
[Your water python technique has reached the highest level! ]
[Day 144: After practicing the Light Spirit Technique continuously, you feel your body becoming lighter and more agile...]
[Your Light Spirit Technique has reached the highest level! ]
[Day 146: Your remaining spiritual arts have also entered the realm of great perfection one after another.]
[163rd Day: …]
Time flies by...
The time traveler who was constantly practicing spiritual arts showed a look of joy on his face.
"Finally, a spiritual technique has been completed!"
As soon as he thought of it, the next second, the sky above the small courtyard changed.
Water vapor continued to gather, and some thin white mist appeared in the empty sky. The white mist continued to gather and formed white clouds.
Then not long after, the clouds became thicker and thicker, and the white clouds turned dark.
Boom, boom! Amid the rolling dark clouds, rumbling sounds continued to be heard, with occasional flashes of lightning.
Looking at the dark clouds within a range of one or two hundred meters in the sky, the traversing body gasped for breath.
"No, even if the spiritual arts have reached the perfect level, the consumption is still too great. All the spiritual energy in the body can only form a dark cloud this small."
"Even performing the Cloud Condensation Technique consumes so much spiritual energy, how can I perform the Lightning Attraction Technique next?"
The traversal body frowned.
Especially if you want to perform the lightning-inducing technique, which relies on the profound spiritual energy of the water spirit skill, you must also consume most of the spiritual energy.
After all, this is a spiritual art that requires one to have perfected Qi training to perform.
"It seems that in order to use this trump card, I must first improve my cultivation to the tenth level of Qi training."
Feeling the very solid bottleneck in his body again, the traversing body sighed helplessly.
After a while, he made the next plan.
Put the breakthrough in cultivation on hold for now, and focus on spiritual techniques and artistic conception!
Once your spiritual skills and artistic conception are improved, I will try to get some benefits from the ancient ruins!
When the next day came, he was too lazy to go out to look for opportunities. He just stayed at home mechanically practicing spiritual arts and comprehending the artistic conception of water.
Just like this, four days passed, and other spiritual arts that were originally close to the perfect state also reached the perfect state one after another at this time!
In addition, over such a long time, relying on that inexplicable state of comprehension, the artistic conception has also made considerable progress, and it is not far from 90%!
[Day 178: At noon this day, your state of mind has been elevated! ]
In front of the bamboo house in the courtyard, the traveling body sat cross-legged on the ground, and a mysterious aura of water continued to permeate his body.
"Finally reached 90%!"
The time traveler is in a good mood.
The further improvement in his strength restored some of his confidence.
If I meet that immortal cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage again, I won’t be so embarrassed this time. I can only block the attack!
