Chapter 1151 Building Extreme Foundation

“Junior brothers, you’ll surely become core disciples within a year considering your potential!”

Many senior brothers and sisters gathered around Su Ping and the new disciples, hoping to make friends with them,

None had a deity constitution. They remained stuck in the first volume, never entering the second.

Those who had entered the second volume were already dominators of certain regions; they didn’t have to make friends with the new junior brothers.

“Junior Brother Su, you’ve only just entered this school; I have some Spirit Nurturing Pills that will help you with your cultivation,” said a graceful senior sister with a smile; she offered him a bottle of said pills.

Su Ping glanced at the gift and readily accepted it. “Thank you very much, senior sister.”

“I’m Fang Yu. Feel free to look for me if you need anything.”

Fang Yu was even more delighted to see him accept the present.

“Fang Yu? I’m glad you’re not Fang Shiyu[1], or it would be impossible for me to beat you…” Su Ping mumbled.

“What?”

“Nothing.” Su Ping shook his head, and thanked her a second time.

Seeing his forthcoming attitude, many others walked over and offered him cultivation pills they had saved for their own use.

“Junior Brother Su, you are an extraordinary genius. Don’t forget your senior brothers when you enter the inner circle,” someone said jokingly, but they actually meant it. Su Ping replied with a smile. “I won’t. I certainly won’t forget my senior sisters either.”

“Haha. Junior Brother Su, you’re so humorous.” All his seniors laughed.

“Bah!”

Many senior sisters who had already offered him gifts rolled their eyes at him; they didn’t expect their new junior brother to be that bold, teasing them right after being admitted.

The other newcomers were rather envious as they saw how Su Ping easily got along with their seniors. In any case, they were no longer as anxious as before; many of them accepted the gifts offered and made friends with them.

“Hmm.”

Disdain flashed in the eyes of the charming young man. Having been born in a renowned family gave him the advantage of knowing a lot about the sects; he was aware that the senior brothers and sisters who went to greet him were mostly mediocre, thus undeserving of his time. He wasn’t short of Spirit Nurturing Pills, either; those pills were the beginner-level kind for cultivation families.

He certainly wouldn’t be impressed by something that cheap!

Still, he avoided saying anything offensive, simply bidding farewell to the seniors who wanted to talk to him, and then squeezed out of the crowd.

“Why are you so arrogant?” someone said and sneered in disdain, but wasn’t too obvious about it; they even smiled at him when they met him.

“I heard he’s from a renowned cultivation family. Tricky to deal with indeed.”

“It’s said that a great deity was born in his family. Unfortunately, that’s all in the past.”

“There’s a chance he can also become a great deity considering his constitution. Mind you, just a possibility; not everyone who boasts a deity constitution can reach that level.”

The other disciples communicated with eye contact, keeping outwardly silent. Instead, they eventually gathered around and talked to the more friendly disciples, such as Su Ping.

The latter greeted them politely, accepting plenty of gifts in the process. He was impressed by the generosity of immortal cultivators, who were offering him quite a lot of stuff, even though they had never met. They were truly great people!

While holding the bundle of cultivation pills, Su Ping said with a smile, “Senior and junior brothers and sisters, I’m leaving to resume my cultivation. Goodbye!”

Everybody quickly said goodbye. Their expressions looked odd after Su Ping left; their junior brother didn’t turn anyone down. Doesn’t he know he has to return the favors later?

Once back in his residence, Su Ping opened the bottles of pills, and poured them all into his mouth.

The Spirit Nurturing Pill helps cultivators sense the spiritual energy in nature and kickstart their cultivation.

Su Ping was already experienced when it came to cultivation. He swallowed the Spirit Nurturing Pills, which turned into a torrent of spiritual energy that flowed inside his body. He focused his attention and cultivated according to the technique.

He directed the spiritual energy with his consciousness and cleaned his marrow, which was the first part of the first volume.

Once the marrow was cleansed, he would gain an extraordinary power. That meant that he would become a cultivator in the future.

He would be able to hold up a weight of a thousand kilograms. He would be equal to a level-3 battle pet warrior.

The second step was to build a foundation. He had to concentrate spiritual energy inside his body, just like stars in his acupoints; it would be the basis of his cultivation.

That was a critical step.

The second step required Building Foundation Pills, which were of different qualities. The most powerful Building Foundation Pills were made of the best ingredients, adding the foundation would count as them making the building indestructible.

The Chaos Star Chart can attract the spiritual energy in nature…

Su Ping was astonished.

He tried to activate the Chaos Star Chart and use the method to absorb astral power, only to find that the spiritual energy in nature was absorbed into his body like a tornado.

Right, my previous body, shrouded in deity aura, was already a half deity. Absorbing astral power and absorbing deity aura are the same for my body…

Su Ping was quite thrilled; he had already witnessed the cultivation speed of the Chaos Star Chart, which was as fast as a whale swallowing. The Spirit Nurturing Pills helped him discover that a lot of spiritual energy was being squeezed and condensed into liquid inside his veins.

“I’m trying another cultivation system as a new cultivation. My main purpose is not to return to the Star State as fast as possible; I’d better stay on solid ground and experience everything carefully.” Su Ping wasn’t in a hurry to improve his level; he was absolutely able to cross nine states in one day with the spiritual energy in his body.

Still, he would only regain his original power if he did that.

What Su Ping wanted to do was to take a step forward, beyond what he had achieved.

He soon condensed the first drop of liquid spiritual energy inside his body, which fell right where his Astral Ocean used to be. Then, the second and the third drop also fell, making the pool expand.

Su Ping was going to build a lake of spiritual energy, and transform it into a lake of deity aura in the future!

Su Ping’s body became even smoother thanks to the flowing spiritual energy, but not many impurities were removed; after all, he had a Golden Crow Constitution to begin with. The cleansing didn’t improve his physical attributes significantly, but it did improve his veins.

A day later,

Su Ping completed the marrow cleansing part; the lake of spiritual energy was already full.

He had also finished up the Spirit Nurturing Pills his senior brothers and sisters had gifted him.

Strange. Why can’t I feel any spiritual energy?

Our senior brother said that we’re talented and we should be able to vaguely detect the flow of spiritual energy on the first day. But I’m not feeling anything right now.

“I’m only feeling sleepy…” said someone with a yawn.

Su Ping opened his eyes, and heard the voices of other disciples in the neighboring rooms. He instantly stopped cultivating.

He opened his eyes and watched. There seemed to be flames in his eyes, allowing him to see spiritual energy in the air. The hazy spiritual energy was concentrated in his room at the moment; it was extremely thin elsewhere. Fortunately, he was surrounded by freshmen. His seniors would have noticed the anomaly if they were present.

The Chaos Star Chart is too domineering. Others won’t be able to cultivate if I stay here. Su Ping raised his eyebrows, then walked out of the room after thinking for a moment.

“Senior Brother Su, it’s already late. You’re still up?” someone said curiously, seeing Su Ping walk out.

He replied, “Our seniors mentioned a cave where we can cultivate. I’d like to go there and take a look.”

“I see. I heard that you have to pay spirit stones to have access. Also, it’s very expensive. Ten thousand taels of gold can only get you a dozen regular spirit stones. That’s not enough to last a day,” said a disciple.

Su Ping nodded and walked out of the dormitory.

The disciple mumbled to himself, instantly heaving a jealous sigh upon remembering that Su Ping had a deity constitution. Su Ping was just a regular student like him, yet he had no doubt that some senior sisters and brothers would willingly pay the needed spirit stones for his junior.

He was right. Some of the seniors recognized him.

“Are you going to cultivate in the cave too, Junior Brother Su?”

“Yes.”

“This Snow Moon Cave was built by Master with advanced spiritual energy arrays, which must be powered with spirit stones. Junior Brother Su, since you just came. You must be short of spirit stones, right?”

“Yes.”

“That’s all right. I have plenty; I can pay for you. How many days are you going to cultivate, Junior Brother Su?”

“Three days, for starters,” Su Ping thought for a moment and said.

“Three days in a row? Junior Brother Su, you’re truly diligent. Still, you haven’t cleansed your marrows yet; I don’t think you can endure it. I’ll prepare some food for you, Junior brother.” That senior of his was rather considerate.

Su Ping was stunned at first, then shook his head. “That won’t be necessary; I’m usually not hungry.”

“That won’t do; food is necessary for every immortal cultivation. How can you cultivate if you’re starving?” The senior brother quickly shook his head.

“About that… Actually, I’ve successfully cleansed my marrows already,” Su Ping had to confess. He didn’t like to be disturbed during his cultivation.

“You have?”

All of them looked at Su Ping, with dumbfounded faces.

It’s only been a day since he was admitted as a disciple, and he already succeeded?

Impossible!

It took them at least three months to cross that hurdle.

As for the other people with deity constitutions, it would have taken from two weeks to a month, too.

“Junior Brother Su, have you cultivated in your home before?” That senior’s eyes glittered. He laid his finger on Su Ping’s wrist and was shocked to detect the flowing spiritual energy in his veins.

“More or less.” Su Ping nodded.

His senior brother was enlightened; it was indeed possible to cleanse marrow fast with the deity technique had he cultivated before joining them.

“Junior Brother Su, you are indeed extraordinary. I’ll just leave you be then,” said that senior.

“Thank you very much, senior brother.”

Su Ping cupped hands in salute. He entered the corresponding room inside the cave, using the badge his senior brother offered.

The cave had training rooms of different qualities. It was clear that his senior brother wasn’t very rich, as he only registered a low-level training room for Su Ping. Even so, the room went for five spirit stones a day, which equaled thousands of gold taels, enough for an ordinary person to live many extravagant lives.

The spiritual energy here is indeed much more abundant. About the arrays…

Once entering the training room, Su Ping saw that there was twice as much spiritual energy compared to that found naturally outside; it was as hazy as mist. He could see hidden spiritual patterns etched everywhere in the room.

Su Ping had learned arrays from Joanna. All arrays had something in common; some mechanisms worked for all of them.

“I see…”

Su Ping gradually realized he wouldn’t need to pay spirit stones if he set up his own spiritual array.

He memorized the array and then focused on cultivation.

The spiritual energy around him surged; it was all absorbed and looted by the Chaos Star Chart. Even the spiritual energy in the neighboring training rooms was drawn to him.

Su Ping was completely devoted to his cultivation.

As a second step, he chose to build his foundation with Old Monster Ye’s dragon and phoenix blood.

After cleansing his marrow, Su Ping realized he could somehow detect the opening of his small worlds. After all, the small worlds still existed deep inside his body; they had merely been sealed.

The spiritual energy he had acquired after cleansing his marrow allowed him to touch his small worlds again. He was still unable to make use of his small words’ power, but he could once again fetch things he had kept there.

He began to build the foundation with the dragon and phoenix blood.

Su Ping fetched the same amount of blood from each type. He saved half for the Inferno Dragons and other pets. Besides, he didn’t need that much blood; after all, he still had the Golden Crow Constitution; absorbing too much external blood would actually pose an obstacle to him.

Two streams of power flowed into Su Ping’s body as he absorbed the blood.

Su Ping forged nine stars through the Chaos Star Chart method by burying the pure power and the spiritual energy in his acupoints!

To build a foundation, building three stars will do. After that, it’s possible to enter the next state.

Those who have excellent potential will build six stars; the most extraordinary geniuses go for eight or nine stars!”

Nine stars are the maximum…

The Heaven Asking Church’s building foundation technique would no longer help him once he built nine stars. Still, Su Ping felt that his body had yet to be perfected.

The two blood types of refined ultimate beasts couldn’t reach a balance in his body.

Fifty fifty would balance things. I have to build ten stars!

But I don’t have any more acupoints to accommodate the last one…

Su Ping was bursting with power, feeling he was about to fall apart. The foundation building process had already made his Golden Crow Constitution unbearable.

He would be destroyed fundamentally from the inside out if he failed.

“Yin and yang…”

Su Ping closed his eyes. While going through such an extreme moment, he suddenly made the decision of taking out all nine stars and gathering the power of the last star as the foundation to create an enormous star.

The star was divided into two parts, but they coexisted harmoniously.

The two streams of power were balanced at that moment; they enhanced and rejected each other at the same time.

The power didn’t work on Su Ping’s body directly, else he wouldn’t be able to bear it. However, he could easily accommodate such a power when they coalesced and reached a balance.
