The concept of a born saint begins with Strange Tales from Liaozhai.

"How could a Foundation Establishment cultivator possibly appear among the menial disciples?!"

"Could it be that the Xuan Tian Mirror is malfunctioning?"

"Impossible! How could the Xuan Tian Mirror malfunction!"

"That……"

One of the deacons muttered to himself, "This is the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment stage; even a true disciple might not be able to achieve it!"

Many people in the Haoran Immortal Sect noticed that a person at the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment stage had appeared among the miscellaneous disciples.

Shocking discussions and unbelievable remarks spread from all directions.

Soon, countless people rushed towards the Eighty-Nine Peaks, wanting to see who this prodigy who had achieved the Foundation Establishment of the Heavenly Dao was, and also trying to win him over.

While others were discussing and rushing towards the Eighty-Nine Peaks...

The morning sun shone on the mountain path, casting dappled shadows. Su Chen, carrying Da Huang, headed towards the Sutra Repository.

A gentle mountain breeze blew, and many disciples hurried past in the distance.

Su Chen remained calm and ignored the people.

Soon, his figure appeared outside the entrance to the Sutra Repository.

As you push open the door, the familiar, faint scent of sandalwood, along with the aroma of paper and ink accumulated over many years in ancient scrolls, wafts towards you.

Sunlight streamed through the window, casting dappled shadows between the rows of wooden bookshelves.

Inside the Sutra Repository, many servants and disciples were browsing through the scriptures.

Hearing the commotion, people subconsciously looked up, but most ignored him, with only a small number whispering among themselves.

Su Chen ignored them and walked straight past the bookshelves, searching for information related to Golden Core and Dao Fruit.

After a stick of incense.

He held in his hand a gray book titled "Chronicles of the True Lord of Fire Cloud".

His gaze was fixed on it, lingering there for a long time.

The book is a diary of miscellaneous events of a Golden Core True Monarch named Huoyun. It is mostly filled with interesting anecdotes about cultivation, but it also contains some content about Foundation Establishment, Dao Fruit, and Golden Core.

The text clearly describes the difference between Foundation Establishment and Golden Core True Monarch.

If there is still a slight possibility of reversing the attack on the Foundation Establishment stage in the Qi Refining stage, then the Foundation Establishment stage is facing an absolute chasm when it comes to the Golden Core stage!

It's like the difference between heaven and earth, beyond measure!

The reason for this difference is...

Su Chen carefully examined the contents of the document.

"When one comprehends the Dao to its limit, one can communicate with the divine and develop supernatural powers. Each supernatural power basically corresponds to a path of the Dao, a Dao fruit, and the rules and authority of heaven and earth."

"Only by comprehending the rudimentary form of a certain Dao fruit can one be promoted to Golden Core True Lord."

"Furthermore, each Dao Fruit is unique. If there is a Dao Lord who controls the entire Dao Fruit, then those below will have no hope of advancement and will live in despair for their entire lives, unless that Dao Lord perishes..."

Upon seeing this, Su Chen frowned.

"Therefore, it is necessary to carefully choose the path and the initial form of the Dao fruit?"

"Otherwise, if you're not careful, you might never be able to improve your cultivation level again?"

He couldn't help but think of the four Daoist techniques: Flower Blooming in an Instant, Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, Burning Tribulation Yin Fire, and Soul Separation Pure Wind.

He wasn't familiar with the other Daoist techniques, but these four techniques—the Flower Blooming Instantly—likely corresponded to the Dao Fruit of Life, the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder to the Dao Fruit of Thunder, the Burning Tribulation Yin Fire to the Dao Fruit of Fire, and the Soul Separation Pure Wind to the Dao Fruit of Wind…

"So, I can choose any of these paths?"

Furthermore, Su Chen learned from this book, "Chronicles of True Lord Huoyun," that every path and nascent Dao fruit has varying degrees of strength.

The stronger the path or the more nascent the fruit of the Dao, the more difficult it is to comprehend, and there will even be many people who obstruct it.

The weaker the path or the more rudimentary the fruit of the path, the easier it is to comprehend.

However, it is very likely that there was already a Dao Lord who controlled the entire Dao Fruit on this path and the prototype of the Dao Fruit.

In addition, the strength of the initial stages of the Dao path and Dao fruit also affects the quality of the Golden Elixir.

Golden Elixir is divided into three grades: lower, middle, and upper, which are further subdivided into nine grades to one grade.

Su Chen seemed to be deep in thought, a look of hesitation on his face.

"Which path should I choose to advance from the initial stage of the Dao to the Golden Core True Lord?"

The paths and fruits of life, thunder, fire, and wind should have a certain strength, especially life and thunder.

However, are there really no Dao Lords controlling these stronger Dao paths and Dao fruits in their nascent stages?

Su Chen hesitated.

Furthermore, the initial forms of the paths and fruits of life, thunder, fire, and wind might be good for others, but they were somewhat lacking for him.

He was somewhat reluctant to embark on these rather ordinary paths.

Having experienced the information explosion in his previous life, he could naturally guess what the prototypes of stronger paths and fruits of cultivation were.

Su Chen's heart stirred. "Perhaps, I can try to choose these paths and nascent fruits?"

"Even using composite Dao Fruit prototypes to form higher-level Dao Fruit prototypes?"

"For example, the five paths and fruits of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are all ordinary when considered alone, but when all five are combined, they become the five elements of the Dao fruit!"

"If we go a step further and reverse the process to achieve oneness, then that would be the rudimentary form of the Yin-Yang Dao Fruit?!"

"Besides, the rudimentary forms of the Dao Fruits of life, death, cause and effect, and soul might even form the rudimentary form of the Dao Fruit of reincarnation?!"

"And there are also the three initial forms of Dao Fruits: Thunder, Fire, and Wind, forming the initial form of the Heavenly Tribulation Dao Fruit?"

In an instant, all sorts of ideas popped into his mind. Su Chen could think of a lot of them, each one more outrageous than the last.

These Dao Fruit prototypes are not only ridiculously powerful, but choosing these prototypes might also help avoid the Dao Lords who control the entire Dao Fruit.

Moreover, while this might be difficult and unbelievable for most people, it might not be so for him!

Su Chen's gaze fell on the comprehension level displayed on the panel.

[Innate Talent & Comprehension: 11725 (Sage and Worthy, Unparalleled Throughout History)]

"With the wisdom of a sage, I might actually be able to do this!"

Su Chen murmured confidently to himself.

After thinking all this over, he turned his gaze back to the book, "Chronicles of True Lord Fire Cloud".

A hint of doubt appeared in his eyes. "What does it mean that many people will obstruct us?"

Even when one is comprehending the initial form of the Dao, will there be people who obstruct one's progress?

How to prevent it?

A series of guesses popped into his mind.

Unfortunately, this point is not described in much detail in the Chronicles of True Lord Huoyun.

He'll have to try it to find out the specifics.

He quickly finished reading the entire Chronicles of True Lord Huoyun, feeling that he had gained a lot and remembered the person of True Lord Huoyun.

"I wonder if this True Lord Fire Cloud is alive or dead..."

Su Chen couldn't help but think of it.

After thinking all this through, he put the book "Chronicles of True Lord Huoyun" back on the bookshelf.

He strode out of the Sutra Repository, intending to return and try to comprehend the Daoist arts such as the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning, to see what changes would occur.

To be honest, since he perfected these Taoist techniques, he hasn't seriously studied them for a long time.

"Perhaps we can reap quite a harvest this time?"

"Not to mention the transformation into supernatural powers, one wonders how much his comprehension will increase..."

Expectation appeared in Su Chen's eyes.

Chapter 87: Obtaining Supernatural Powers and the Position of Wind-Guarding Official!

A cool mountain breeze blows as the first rays of dawn illuminate the scene.

Su Chen, with Da Huang in tow, returned to the wooden house at the foot of the Eighty-Nine Peaks.

As soon as he entered the room, he sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and focused his attention on each Taoist technique.

After scanning through numerous Dao techniques, his perception finally focused on the Soul-Separating Wind.

"Let's try the Soul-Separating Wind first..."

With this thought in mind, he immediately began to carefully comprehend the Daoist magic of the Soul-Separating Pure Wind.

Countless pieces of knowledge and insights about the departed soul of Bai Feng surfaced in his mind.

He re-examined every detail.

Originally, Bi Feng had already reached the perfect state and there was almost no possibility of further improvement, but at this moment, with his extremely serious state and the enlightenment of a sage, he was able to achieve even greater success.

He actually sensed clearly that there was still room for improvement in the Soul-Separating Wind!

He suddenly understood, and murmured to himself, "Is this what is meant by the divine power of Taoist magic?"

With this in mind, he immediately calmed down and began to carefully comprehend and deduce.

The knowledge and insights of countless departed souls of the Pure Wind were disassembled, improved, and reassembled under his deduction, advancing towards the realm of divinity.

Time passed.

The golden sun overhead moved slowly and gradually set behind the mountain.

The light outside dimmed.

As the Jade Rabbit and the bright moon rose, their clear light shone through the window, illuminating the wooden house and falling on Su Chen's shoulders.

He was completely unaware, and the deduction continued.

night.

Zishi.

In the wooden house.

Suddenly, a series of low sobs began to rise.

It is like the wind but not the wind, like crying but not crying.

The Soul-Separating Wind slowly swirled around Su Chen, formless and intangible, carrying a chilling aura that could cause even the most mortal to lose their body and soul with each wisp.

Suddenly, Su Chen opened his eyes.

A notification sound also rang in my ears.

[Your comprehension is extraordinary; your mastery of the Daoist technique "Soul Separation and Pure Wind" has reached a divine level, and you have comprehended the supernatural power "Soul Separation and Pure Wind."]

[Divine Power: Soul Separation and Pure Wind - Beginner Level, Comprehension +300]

[Innate Talent & Comprehension: 12025 (Sage and Worthy, Unparalleled Throughout History)]

"You just started learning and your comprehension has already increased by 300 points?"

A look of surprise appeared in Su Chen's eyes.

Furthermore, as the Daoist technique of Soul Separation and Pure Wind transformed into a supernatural power, he clearly felt that the range and power of the Soul Separation and Pure Wind had increased by at least five times!

If he were still at the peak of Qi Refining, and faced those Yin creatures like the Xuan Yin Jellyfish and the Thousand Soul Locust Tree again, he would be confident that he could instantly kill them with just the Soul-Separating Wind, blowing their souls away from their bodies!

"Is this the power of supernatural abilities?"

Su Chen was a little surprised.

Even just mastering one supernatural power is enough for a cultivator to overcome the strong with the weak!

Of course, although that's what he said, he also clearly felt how difficult it was to comprehend supernatural powers.

“My comprehension level was over 11,000 before. Even I needed half a day to comprehend it before I could transform the Daoist techniques into supernatural powers, let alone others…”

Su Chen shook his head.
