Chapter 135 Zhou Chun's Foundation Building Method Selection [Subscription Request]

After the initial failure in building his foundation, Zhou Chun rested for almost ten days.

The main purpose is to soothe the impact on the Qihai point, and the other is to summarize the experience and lessons.

Failure is the mother of success. Only after experiencing failure can you better know how to find success.

After summarizing the situation, Zhou Chun discovered that the main reason for his failure in building the foundation last time was probably because he took too long to break through the illusion, which consumed a lot of the medicinal power of the foundation-building pill.

Otherwise, the impact caused by the collapse of his cyclone might not be able to break through the protective film formed by the power of the foundation-building pill in one go.

Another reason, of course, was that he had problems controlling the cyclone in the final step of reversing the magic power and failed to grasp the rhythm well.

Next, he tried to build his foundation again. These two points were still difficulties he needed to overcome.

However, with the experience of this first failure, and the fact that when taking the Foundation Establishment Pill for the second time, no medicinal power will be wasted on removing "impurities" from the body, Zhou Chun still has great confidence in the success of the foundation establishment.

So after his body recovered to normal, he took the second foundation-building pill and started his second foundation-building process.

Sure enough, after taking the foundation-building pill this time, there was almost no impurity visible on Zhou Chun's body surface.

And he quickly tried to break through the foundation-building stage again.

Unlike the last time, the illusion Zhou Chun faced again this time was the disgust and abandonment from the Grand Elder Zhou Mingde after he failed to take two foundation-building pills.

He had always been suspicious and worried about the fact that the Supreme Elder Zhou Mingde was not close to him.

In this illusion, his doubts and worries were infinitely magnified.

In the illusion, when he came out of retreat after his failure, the supreme elder Zhou Mingde not only ignored the pleas of clan leader Zhou Daoyi and rejected his suggestion to obtain another foundation-building pill for his third foundation-building project, but also asked him to offer all his wealth to compensate for the loss of the two foundation-building pills.

When other tribesmen learned that he had failed to build his foundation after taking two foundation-building pills, they became jealous and crazy about his treatment and strongly supported the decision of the supreme elder Zhou Mingde.

Those tribesmen who once had a good relationship with him now looked at him with great disappointment and disgust.

Compared to the previous illusion, this one was more lifelike and perfectly portrayed the evil of human nature.

However, Zhou Chun did not stay in the illusion for long this time. He quickly saw through the illusion and regained consciousness.

He is not a supporter of the idea that "human nature is evil" and he has always believed that sincerity can bring true love.

Zhou Chun had made great contributions to the Zhou family, so even three or five foundation-building pills would be enough, let alone two.

What's more, the management and combat abilities he demonstrated were among the best among the younger generation of the Zhou family.

Moreover, the clan leader Zhou Daoyi and the third elder Zhou Daoquan both received the "Soul Heart Fruit" he offered.

Therefore, he absolutely did not believe that he would be abandoned so ruthlessly just because of his failure in building his foundation!
Even after Zhou Jiacheng failed to build his foundation after taking the foundation-building pill, clan leader Zhou Daoyi did not blame him.

How could Zhou Chun be abandoned!
So with this true heart, Zhou Chun easily saw through the illusion and regained consciousness.

This time, after he regained consciousness, he discovered that less than 20% of the medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill had been used.

This made him feel relieved and more confident.

Then he tried to condense the magic power cyclone again, and because of the previous failure experience, he succeeded after only two tries.

When the time came to reverse the magic cyclone, Zhou Chun calmed his mind and tried slowly.

Although it failed once in the middle, with the support of the medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill, the protective film easily withstood the impact of magic power after the failure.

When he started his third attempt, Zhou Chun finally pushed the magic cyclone smoothly and completed the reversal.

Tick ​​tock!

Suddenly, a crisp sound of water dripping came from Zhou Chun's body.

Below the reversed cyclone, a drop of magical energy emitting golden, green and blue light dripped down like early spring dew and landed in the originally empty sea of ​​energy below.

Then, drop after drop of magic power and true essence continued to drip down like water dripping from a faucet, gradually accumulating into a small pond in Zhou Chun's sea of ​​​​energy.

After the last drop of mana power and true essence had fallen, there was no longer any misty mana visible in Zhou Chun's Qi Sea. There was only a pool of mana power and true essence that was sparkling with three-colored spiritual light.

Become!

Zhou Chun looked at the pool of magic power and essence that appeared in his qi sea, and his heart finally settled back into his stomach.

Then he began to practice his skills, directing the magic power out of his qi sea and toward other meridians and acupoints.

Through this guidance, it was discovered that the "Five Qis Facing the Sun Sutra" that was originally practiced was not as effective in guiding the magic power and true essence as its previous effect on the mist-like magic power.

The time spent on performing one round of exercises is several times longer than before!
This means that if he continues to practice this method, the speed will be several times slower than before!
The difference is so huge, no wonder the first thing a cultivator does after building his foundation is to quickly switch to practicing a new technique.

The magical power and true essence flowed through the meridians and acupoints, nourishing the nearby flesh, blood and bones. Zhou Chun soon discovered that his body was gradually changing.

He knew in his heart that this was the magic power and true essence beginning to temper and nourish his body, making his flesh gradually become extraordinary.

This step is slow and long, and it usually takes more than half a year to complete the tempering.

Only then can one be considered a true foundation-building cultivator from the inside out.

This is true not only for the physical body, but also for the spiritual consciousness.

Zhou Chun now feels that although his spiritual awareness has increased a lot, it is still not to the level of hundreds of feet that a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage can easily reach.

However, every time the magic power circulates through the Yintang, Shenting and other acupoints, it will nourish the soul and strengthen the consciousness.

If this continues, his spiritual awareness will sooner or later grow to a level that is much stronger than that of an ordinary cultivator in the early stage of foundation building.

So in the following time, Zhou Chun sat in the secret room and meditated peacefully, transferring his magical power and true essence to nourish his body.

Although the "Five Qis Rising Sun Sutra" is no longer usable, compared to the time spent on switching to a new practice, it is obviously more cost-effective to continue using this practice to transport magic power and true essence to temper the body.

Moreover, Zhou Chun's body has not yet completed its transformation, and may not be able to adapt to the practice of new skills.

In this way, after Zhou Chun had been in seclusion for almost three months to build his foundation, he finally came out first.

At this time, Zhou Chun's body had not yet completed its transformation, and his spiritual consciousness had not yet reached its growth limit.

However, he has already mastered all the abilities that a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage can master, such as controlling air and flying.

After coming out of seclusion, he was just like Zhou Jiarui he had seen before. He couldn't wait to fly into the air and experience the thrill of flying.

He just raised his hands slightly, and with a thought, his body floated back and forth in the sky as light as the wind, climbing up and down at will.

As long as he has magic power, he can maintain this state.

This feeling of free flying is far beyond what can be achieved by controlling a flying magical instrument.

Zhou Chun's actions naturally quickly attracted the attention of the clan leader Zhou Daoyi.

Soon his loud laughter filled with joy could be heard on Pagoda Peak.

"Hahahaha, Zhengchun, you finally succeeded and came out of seclusion!" A green light flashed, and Zhou Daoyi's figure soon appeared in the air.

His face was full of happy smiles, and he looked much happier than Zhou Chun who had just been released from confinement.

Zhou Chun was very moved when he saw this. He quickly descended and saluted, saying, "Patriarch, I am honored to have fulfilled your mission."

After that, he said with a hint of regret: "It's a pity that I am not capable enough to save a foundation-building pill for the family!"

Hearing his words, Zhou Daoyi waved his hand with an undiminished smile and said, "As long as you can successfully build your foundation, it's fine. If those external objects are gone, they're gone. We can find ways to get them later."

As he spoke, he moved and fell to the ground, saying, "Come, follow me into the hall and I will explain in detail."

After entering Zhongping Hall, Zhou Daoyi just casually asked Zhou Chun a few questions about his feelings after building his foundation, and then quickly got to the point.

"Now that you have successfully established your foundation, it is time for me to fulfill the promises I made to you on behalf of the family."

"How about this. Three months later, the clan will hold a foundation-building ceremony for you. At that time, I will invite some cultivators from other clans to attend, and then ask the Supreme Elder to publicly announce that you will be appointed as the deputy clan leader!"

"As for the original promise of the Grand Elder to give you a magic weapon personally, whether it is still valid now or not, I will have to ask for instructions again to find out, so you don't have to worry."

Originally, it was said that Zhou Chun would succeed in building his foundation by taking only one foundation-building pill. Not only would he be able to become the deputy clan leader immediately, he would also receive many superior treatments.

But Zhou Chun now had to take two foundation-building pills to successfully build his foundation.

If he took one more foundation-building pill, all the contributions he had made to the family would of course be consumed a lot more.

Therefore, Zhou Daoyi was not sure what the supreme elder Zhou Mingde was thinking.

Although Zhou Chun also wanted to obtain the things that Zhou Daoyi mentioned, it was not necessary for him to have them.

After all, he already has two second-level magical weapons in his hands!
So he immediately responded: "Junior understands, Patriarch, don't worry, no matter what the family decides, junior will not have any complaints!"

“Well, it’s good that you have this mentality.”

Zhou Daoyi nodded slightly and was very satisfied with Zhou Chun's answer.

Then he looked at Zhou Chun and asked again: "Have you thought about the choice of cultivation method?"

Hearing his question, Zhou Chun answered without hesitation: "I have already made up my mind. I want to practice the kind of technique that can not only gain powerful magical powers, but also rapidly improve my magical power!"

"Oh, are you really sure? This is a matter that affects your future life, so you must be careful!"

Zhou Daoyi looked at Zhou Chun seriously, seeming a little surprised by his answer.

Zhou Chun said with a resolute look: "I have confirmed it, and I am willing to bear all the consequences!"

Seeing that he answered so firmly, Zhou Daoyi knew that he had really made up his mind.

So he didn't persuade her any more, but just nodded and said, "Okay, since you have made up your mind, then when you have stabilized your cultivation, come to me and I will take you to choose a technique that meets your requirements!"

"Yes, this junior understands."

Zhou Chun responded and went back to his residence to continue consolidating his cultivation.

Soon, the news of Zhou Chun's successful foundation building spread throughout the Zhou family like a gust of wind.

After Zhou Jiarui and Zhou Jiahe, two cultivators of the "Jia" generation, successfully established their foundations, the first cultivator of the Zhou family's "Zheng" generation who reached the foundation stage was finally born!
When this news spread, many Zhou family cultivators felt happy but mixed emotions.

Of course, they were happy because the family had one more cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, which further enhanced their strength.

However, the fact that Zhou Chun, the thirteenth member of the "Zheng" generation, had successfully established his foundation made some elders and fellow cultivators feel uncomfortable.

Some of them are more than twice as old as Zhou Chun, and some were once at the same level of cultivation as Zhou Chun.

But now Zhou Chun has succeeded in building his foundation, while they may never have the chance to build their foundation in this lifetime!

This huge sense of gap certainly makes people feel uncomfortable.

"I didn't expect he would get to this point so quickly!"

On Baozhi Peak, the fifth elder Zhou Jiahe was surprised and happy when he heard the news. He was also amazed that Zhou Chun had successfully established his foundation so quickly.

"I originally thought that I would build my foundation before him, which would make it much easier to repay his favor. I didn't expect that he would be ahead of me now!"

When Zhou Jiapeng learned the news that Zhou Chun had successfully established his foundation, he was also filled with emotion and amazement.

"Sure enough, I knew that this Thirteenth Brother would have a bright future. A thirty-six-year-old foundation-building cultivator, tsk tsk tsk tsk ..."

Zhou Zhengyu, a cousin who once went to Yunzhou with Zhou Chun to investigate information about the dragon, was also amazed when he heard the news.

Zhou Zhengtao, the clan brother who had said some sarcastic words to Zhou Chun during the operation to capture the Bajiaopi water deer, was dumbfounded when he heard the news.

After being stunned for a long while, he sighed faintly: "It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others!"

Not to mention how the other Zhou family cultivators reacted when they heard the news that Zhou Chun had successfully established his foundation.

After Zhou Chun returned to his residence, he couldn't help but think of the questions and answers he had with the clan leader Zhou Daoyi.

It turns out that after a cultivator has established his foundation, the techniques he practices are generally divided into three categories.

One type is a technique that, after practicing, can allow the cultivator to acquire powerful magical powers to defeat the enemy. If this type of technique is practiced successfully, it will come with relatively powerful spells and certain characteristics, which will greatly enhance the cultivator's fighting ability and even allow him to fight against opponents of higher levels!

However, the flaws of this type of practice are also obvious. Usually after practicing, the speed of improvement of magic power is very slow. It may take fifty or sixty years to break through a small realm.

For cultivators who practice this kind of technique, basically they can forget about opening up the Purple Palace!

The second type of skills is just the opposite. After practicing, not only will your magic power improve at an astonishing speed and it will be easy to succeed in practicing, but the chance of encountering a bottleneck in practice in the future will also be much lower than that of practitioners of the first type of skills.

However, the flaw of this technique is also obvious, that is, it almost does not allow people to protect themselves, and the magical powers that come with it are pitifully small, and cultivators cannot gain any combat power increase from this technique.

If their cultivation levels are the same, a cultivator who practices the second type of techniques will almost never be able to defeat a cultivator who practices the first type of techniques, and may even be defeated by the opponent who practices the first type of techniques!
But even so, many cultivators will still choose to practice the second type of skills in order to break through the realm and gain a longer lifespan.

After all, the pursuit of immortality is the original intention of many people embarking on the path of cultivation.

In addition to the previous two types of exercises, there is another type of exercises, which is the type of exercises chosen by Zhou Chun.

This third type of practice can be said to have the advantages of the previous two types of practice. It can not only greatly enhance the fighting ability of the cultivator and gain powerful magical powers to defeat the enemy, but also improve the magic power very quickly.

But this kind of practice also has its shortcomings.

That is, this type of technique not only has many restrictions when practicing, but the practice process is also very dangerous. It may be life-threatening at any time, and one may die during practice if not careful!

Generally speaking, cultivators who are not gifted and have abilities beyond those of ordinary people will not choose to practice this third type of skills.

In addition, compared with the previous two types of skills, the third type of skills is extremely rare, very precious, and difficult to obtain easily.

Currently in the Zhou family, there is not a single cultivator who dares to practice the third type of skills!
