The Quest for Immortality

At fourteen, Qi Refinement Ninth Level, Divine Sense with Thirteen Stripes.

From Qi Refining Eighth Level to Ninth Level, although his realm broke through and his Divine Sense also grew a bit,

This kind of growth, after all, was only within the Qi-refining Realm. In front of a Foundation Establishment Divine Sense, it seemed rather unimpressive.

It was tasteless, but too precious to discard.

It was also insufficient to break through the bottleneck and reach the Fourteen Stripes of Foundation Establishment.

Mo Hua’s Divine Sense still peaked at Thirteen Stripes.

It wasn’t even much stronger than the previous peak at Thirteen Stripes.

Inside the carriage, Mo Hua sighed.

It seemed this bottleneck was yet another tough threshold.

Similar to the threshold from Qi Refinement to Foundation Establishment, from Thirteen to Fourteen Stripes was the barrier from the Initial Stage of Foundation Establishment to the Middle Stage. It appeared to be a difference of only one Stripe, but the gap between them was unfathomably deep.

Mo Hua couldn’t see the bottom.

So tough at Foundation Establishment, then what about the Golden Core Realm?

Mo Hua poked his head out and glanced at the sky.

The territory he was currently in was the Third-Grade Dali Mountain State Boundary.

In the Third-Grade State Boundary, the upper limit of Cultivation that a cultivator could utilize was the Golden Core Realm!

"The Third-Grade State Boundary, huh..."

Mo Hua muttered to himself.

This was the first time he had come to a state boundary above Second Grade.

Mo Hua took a deep breath and felt that the atmosphere around him was different — the earth was more expansive, and the sky seemed higher.

Of course, it could be that the Third-Grade State Boundary was indeed larger.

Or it might just be his own illusion…

Mo Hua looked up at the sky again.

Although he couldn’t see it now, there was a Large Formation in the heavens.

When he obliterated Feng Xi, he had seen it with his own eyes: blood-red lightning descended, frighteningly enigmatic, roaming above his head, and then gradually dissipated.

As the lightning faded, within the clouds, there were inconceivable Formation Patterns.

One of these Patterns he had memorized onto a Taoist Stele.

This Pattern was an Immortal Pattern.

Far beyond what Mo Hua’s current realm could comprehend.

Mo Hua hadn’t even dared to look at it, fearful that a single glance would drain his Divine Sense, crack his Sea of Consciousness, and bring endless trouble.

Furthermore, this was an Immortal Pattern from the lightning tribulation, containing the Laws of annihilation.

Laws are unreasonable.

If he looked too much and triggered the Immortal Pattern, getting annihilated on the spot, even his master, no matter how powerful, would probably be unable to save him…

He would leave it for later, when his realm was higher and his Divine Sense stronger, to cautiously comprehend.

Mo Hua looked down at his little hand again.

Now, flowing within his body was the Spiritual Power of Qi Refinement Ninth Level!

At Qi Refinement Ninth Level, the Spiritual Power had deepened a bit.

At the same time, his Spell’s power had also grown stronger.

Even relying solely on "Divine Sense compression", with the "Only speed is unbeatable" Fireball Technique, he could generally defeat other cultivators at the Qi Refinement Ninth Level.

Of course, that excluded his Junior Brother and Junior Sister.

They could hold their own against those in Foundation Establishment.

Currently, Mo Hua was no match for Foundation Building Cultivators.

Unless he utilized the Formation Collapse…

Otherwise, it’d be a fifty-fifty chance.

And it’s the kind of fifty-fifty where "one stands on invincible ground".

He couldn’t kill them, they couldn’t chase, catch, or even see him…

"Just not sure if after my Foundation Establishment, when my Divine Sense improves further and my spells become stronger, can I face off against other Foundation Building Cultivators directly…"

Mo Hua couldn’t help but ponder it in his heart.

His facial expression changed by the moment—sometimes happy, sometimes expectant, sometimes worried, and sometimes frowning in deep thought…

Mr. Zhuang watched with interest and smiled gently,

"Thinking about Foundation Establishment again?"

Mo Hua came back to his senses and nodded with a smile.

"There’s no need to rush," Mr. Zhuang nodded slightly, "Cultivate a bit deeper, reach Nine-layer perfection, and then you can attempt Foundation Establishment. As for the Divine Sense, don’t force it — let it be…"

Looking at it now, a Qi-refining Cultivator reaching Fourteen Stripes of Divine Sense was indeed too difficult.

Even Mo Hua might find it somewhat impossible…

After a moment of contemplation, Mr. Zhuang continued, "If it really doesn’t work out, peak Thirteen Stripes at Foundation Establishment is also acceptable."

Mo Hua felt a bit regretful and worried,

"Won’t that be less powerful?"

Mr. Zhuang hesitated for a moment, looking at Mo Hua with a complex gaze,

"You’re currently at Qi Refinement Ninth Level with peak Thirteen Stripes of Divine Sense, which is very… impressive already…"

Which family’s Qi-refining Cultivator could have the Divine Sense of the peak of the Initial Stage of Foundation Establishment?

It’s Divine Sense, after all, which is elusive and difficult to cultivate, strengthen, and enhance…

Not simply nurtured by Spirit Stones like Spiritual Power.

To have Divine Sense advance by a whole realm is already inconceivable.

"Oh." Mo Hua scratched his head.

If master says it’s impressive, then it should be okay.

Then, he thought of another question,

"Master, shouldn’t I polish my realm?"

Mo Hua glanced at Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi, "Like my Junior Brother and Junior Sister..."

He had heard from Zhang Lan that descendants of Noble Clans need to lay a solid foundation before Foundation Establishment so that their Cultivation is stable and they can go further in the future.

Zhang Lan himself had taken a long time to refine his foundation in the Qi-refining Realm.

Despite being from a noble clan, he was of such age and still only at Qi Refinement Ninth Level; only later, for the sake of battling the Big Demon and being safe, did he break through to Foundation Establishment.

Of course, Mo Hua figured that he probably had a falling out with his clan and was a bit rebellious, hence he deliberately stagnated, otherwise he wouldn’t have waited so long to establish his Foundation.

But for his Junior Brother and Junior Sister, it was a different story.

The three of them spent their days together.

Mo Hua watched them cultivate every day; each time they practiced, their Spiritual Power became more condensed, their Cultivation deeper, their auras stronger.

Accumulating day by day, though their realms hadn’t increased, their Cultivation was exceptionally solid.

It was even comparable to Foundation Establishment…

Mo Hua reminisced for a moment.
