Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 716: Chapter 565: Foundation Establishment_3

Mo Hua asked, “When one builds a good Taoist foundation, will there be any extraordinary phenomena?”

The concept of the Foundation Building Phenomenon was something Mo Hua had heard from others.

They said that noble clans and sects spoke of once-in-a-millennium geniuses, who, during their foundation establishment, would be accompanied by phenomena between heaven and earth, with auspicious radiance filling the sky and the ringing of dragons and phoenixes that serve as proof of the Great Dao…

“It’s not that exaggerated…” True Man Situ said helplessly, “These statements are concocted by noble clans to pretentiously inflate their value with grandiose fabrications, mostly to elevate the status of their own disciples—it’s all a lot of opaque mystification…”

“The Foundation Building Phenomenon isn’t that obvious, but it does indeed exist.”

“Generally speaking, as long as the foundation is solid and the Taoist foundation is complete, there will indeed be some special phenomena…”

“You just focus on building your foundation properly, don’t worry about these unnecessary distractions…”

True Man Situ instructed.

“Hmm, I understand,” Mo Hua nodded.

Afterward, Mo Hua began to sit in meditation for foundation building in his cave dwelling.

He leveled his mind, collected his energy, followed the procedures methodically, step by step…

First, he took some pills to nourish and limber up his meridians and loosen his skeleton. Then he burned incense, calmed his mind, and, when his body and heart were unified and his thoughts undispersed, he began to refine spirit stones.

The Foundation building began, and the Qi Sea surged wildly, like a gaping mouth incessantly devouring spiritual energy.

One spirit stone after another was quickly refined.

Streams of spiritual energy flowed into the Dantian Qi Sea.

Tens of thousands of spiritual stones were consumed like water.

Mo Hua’s spiritual power also grew stronger with each circulation, and the Qi Sea gradually became more substantial…

Thanks to True Man Situ’s guidance and Mo Hua’s detailed preparations, this process went quite smoothly.

After an indeterminate amount of time, the Qi Sea finally became stable and the spiritual power thickened and congealed like flowing mercury.

Condensing spiritual energy, spiritual power like mercury!

This is the Foundation Building spiritual power!

Mo Hua opened his eyes and felt the spiritual power in his Qi Sea, cloudy like fog, circulating like water, thick like mercury, and he could not have been more delighted.

He had finally built his foundation!

He was now a Foundation Building Cultivator!

But Mo Hua knew that this was not enough.

For him, the real Foundation Building was just beginning…

His path was that of “Divine Sense Proving the Dao,” and the enhancement of Divine Sense was the key.

According to his master, when cultivators build their foundation, spiritual power undergoes a qualitative change, and Divine Sense doubles.

His spiritual power had now changed qualitatively.

Next, it was time for his Divine Sense to double!

A Divine Sense at the Fourteen-Pattern Qi Foundation Middle Stage, after doubling, might break through the limit and advance by leaps and bounds to the Seventeen-Pattern Divine Sense of the Foundation Establishment Late Stage!

This was the Taoist Foundation that Mo Hua truly aimed to build!

Mo Hua felt anxious, but even more so, he was filled with anticipation.

A moment later, the Sea of Consciousness trembled, and then Mo Hua felt his Fourteen-Pattern Divine Sense grow at a rapid pace!

It was as if from the boundless Great Dao, endless Divine Sense was born, and as realizations dawned in Mo Hua’s mind, Divine Thoughts like springs flowed continuously into the Sea of Consciousness, augmenting Mo Hua’s Divine Sense!

The Sea of Consciousness of Mo Hua also expanded little by little.

Enhanced Divine Sense inevitably resulted in the expansion of the Sea of Consciousness.

A vast Sea of Consciousness is necessary to accommodate more Divine Sense.

Mo Hua had not deeply experienced this before because the enhancement of his Divine Sense had mostly been gradual and accumulative over days and months.

But now, breaking through to Foundation Building and experiencing the doubling of Divine Sense, Mo Hua could clearly sense his Sea of Consciousness expanding rapidly…

At the same time, more Divine Sense flowed into the Sea of Consciousness.

Rivers flowing into the ocean…

The realm of Mo Hua’s Divine Sense also climbed step by step…
