Chapter 249 The Platform to Ascend to the Clouds
At the bottom of the Qingyuan River, undercurrents surged. Centered on Jiang Chen, a huge whirlpool had already formed. The originally dark riverbed was now illuminated by spiritual light, and the rudimentary Dao foundation emerged, radiating spirituality. At this moment, every scale of the mist dragon flowed with brilliant spiritual light.

"Ascending from the Sea of ​​Fog to the Clouds!"

A sudden inspiration struck him, and Jiang Chen realized the time was ripe. He began to focus all his efforts on refining his Dao foundation.

With the support of second-tier divine soul power, he was clear both inside and out. This step was not a difficult problem for him, and he did not waste a single bit of his strength.

"Superior Dao Foundation, no, it's still a little short, only mid-grade."

The once illusory dragon pearl solidified completely, resembling a bright moon in the sky, and Jiang Chen gained a sudden understanding.

The foundation of the Dao is difficult to establish, and the forging of a superior Dao foundation is even more difficult. Although the Mist Dragon is a pure-blooded dragon with an extraordinary bloodline, it is ultimately not a true dragon. Although forging a Dao foundation is not difficult, forging a superior Dao foundation is still a luxury. If it weren't for the support of its powerful divine soul, the Mist Dragon wouldn't even be able to touch the threshold of a superior Dao foundation.

Generally speaking, it's considered good if a pure-blooded dragon can successfully forge a mid-grade Dao foundation, thus giving it a chance to advance further.

"The Dao Foundation is the cornerstone of the Great Dao. If you want to walk the path of the Dao smoothly in the future, the Dao Foundation must be solid. Although there is only a fine line between a mid-grade Dao Foundation and a high-grade Dao Foundation, this fine line is a world of difference."

"I still have a chance."

The collision of divine thoughts was almost instinctive, and Jiang Chen pushed his divine soul power to its limit.

"Qingyuan River, lend me a hand."

Driven by his inner desires, Jiang Chen connected with the illusory spirituality of Qingyuan River. Through their previous interactions, he had sensed the extraordinary nature of Qingyuan River.

As if hearing Jiang Chen's shout, a dragon's roar resounded from the deepest part of the Qingyuan River. At this moment, it was no longer limited to Qinghe County; the entire Qingyuan River was in turmoil, with a powerful and eye-catching sound.

At the same time, a special river energy entered Jiang Chen's body. It was the clear river energy that had accumulated over the years in the Qingyuan River. It was pure and spiritual, and was conducive to transcendence. It was of great benefit to water-attribute cultivators.

With a roar, the clear river energy entered his body, his blood boiled, and without hesitation, following his instincts, Jiang Chen leaped into the air, drawing upon the power of the river.

With a thunderous roar, the waves surged and a snow-white dragon with ice-blue mane and a slender body burst forth from the water.

Under the bright moonlight, its appearance was ethereal. At this moment, it seemed to be the master of the Qingyuan River, and the entire Qingyuan River moved with it.

"It really is it, Frost Dragon."

Upon seeing the dragon emerge from the water, Qi Xiuning immediately confirmed his guess.

Just as he was about to do something, a long dragon roar was heard, and a terrifying dragon's might burst forth, sweeping across all directions.

"Congeal!"

Riding the current of the river upstream, Jiang Chen, inspired by a sudden inspiration, activated the Flood Dragon Pearl.

At this moment, the dragon pearl, which was about to solidify and solidify completely under the jaw, underwent a transformation, falling like the bright moon from the sky and entering the dantian.

With a hum, the dragon pearl fell, causing a change in the dantian, where true energy surged, and a strange cloud platform appeared.

"High-grade Daoji·Dengyuntai."

As his Dao foundation solidified and manifested in his dantian, Jiang Chen instantly gained enlightenment.

The Cloud Platform is the most suitable foundation for the Mist Dragon's cultivation. It ranks among the top-grade, possessing the ability to control clouds and rain, and is adept at transformation. It can weave clouds, herd clouds, and graze the sea of ​​clouds.

With a whoosh, he exhaled a breath of white air, and the profound mysteries of his Dao Foundation were activated. Rolling mist instantly spread out, completely obscuring an area of ​​ten miles in radius.

"The Cloud Ascension Platform is a Dao Foundation specially evolved by the Cloud Dragon Clan, taking the meaning of leaping over the Dragon Gate. Once this Dao Foundation is completed, the path for the Mist Dragon to transform into a true dragon is completely opened. This is the greatest wonder of this Dao Foundation." With the Dao Foundation forged, the bloodline is immortal. Jiang Chen immediately obtained a further inheritance of the "Mist Sea Cloud Ascension Scripture" from the bloodline of the Mist Dragon.

Unlike before when it stopped at the foundation level, after this completion, the "Mist Sea Ascending Cloud Scripture" has reached a completely new level. It not only includes the key points of cultivation at the foundation level, but also provides a direction for further advancement.

"The Dao Foundation is the cornerstone of the Great Dao. Once the Dao Foundation is established, a cultivator's cultivation is considered to have embarked on the right track. After that, one should diligently cultivate, build the Twelve-Story Tower to support oneself, achieve harmony between the inner and outer, and open up the Purple Mansion."

The true meaning of the scriptures flowed through Jiang Chen's heart, and he saw a cultivation technique that directly pointed to the Purple Mansion.

"After the Dao Foundation comes the Purple Mansion. Such a scripture is probably rare in the entire Southern Jing Kingdom."

"It must be said that the Skin-Clad Technique passed down by the Impermanence Sect is extremely profound, actually preserving the bloodline power of the demon. Of course, the fact that the Mist Dragon was able to obtain such a complete inheritance is also related to the infusion of spirit. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for its bloodline power to be preserved so completely."

With a sudden thought, Jiang Chen's mind became completely still.

Although the Dao Foundation has been successfully forged, the transformation of the Mist Dragon is not yet truly over. With the Dao Foundation forged, the True Qi will truly be elevated and transformed into spiritual power. At the same time, it will receive feedback, and both the physical body and the soul of the Mist Dragon will undergo transformation.

Compared to Qi Refining cultivators, Foundation Establishment cultivators are powerful in every way.

"It's done, it's already done."

Blood and tears streamed from his eyes as he stared at the figure, both celestial and demonic, shrouded in mist. Qi Xiuning's face was filled with panic and disbelief.

"go!"

Fear spread, and Qi Xiuning fled in a sorry state.

When Jiang Chen revealed himself just now, he wanted to stop him, but perhaps it was because of this thought that the dragon's might erupted, and he suffered a serious injury. This was even when the other party was focused on breaking through and did not pay attention to him.

If the other party was deliberately targeting him, the dragon's might alone would be enough to crush him. He was no match for the other party before, and he is no match for him now. The two sides are no longer on the same level.

Jiang Chen ignored Qi Xiuning's escape. At this moment, his own transformation was the most important thing to him. With his soul severely damaged, it was questionable whether Qi Xiuning could even survive.

Meanwhile, further away, looking at the Qingyuan River which had begun to calm down, Lady Qinghua stopped in her tracks.

"Is there really a dragon breaking through to the Dao Foundation stage? Has it succeeded or failed?"

Her senses were heightened, and Lady Qinghua's face was filled with solemnity.

She had been hiding in the Five Immortals Mountain, cultivating herself and familiarizing herself with the power of her own Dao Foundation level, but the commotion in the entire Qingyuan River caught her attention.

Through observation, she could basically confirm that a dragon was seeking a breakthrough, but before she could trace the source, all the strange phenomena had already begun to subside.

"There are no spiritual veins in Qingyuan County, so it should be difficult to support living beings to break through to the Dao Foundation. However, it is not that there are no other ways to make up for it, but the speed of this breakthrough is too fast."

With these thoughts colliding, Lady Qinghua pondered various possibilities.

To be honest, when she discovered that it might be a dragon seeking a breakthrough, her first thought was to stop it and seize its bloodline, but it didn't give her that chance at all.

"We need to investigate this carefully; we need to reach a conclusion, whether it's a success or a failure."

With a soft sigh, Lady Qinghua's figure disappeared.
