Chapter 58: The Method to Break Through Foundation Establishment_2
Then it would replenish the cultivator who served as the host, allowing the cultivator to similarly breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment stage.
However, during the replenishment process, a soul that has reached the second stage might backlash against the host, and at that time, only the speed of the Qi Cultivation stage would be unable to resist it.
This is the biggest issue with this cultivation technique.
Once Fang Yun knew about this key to breaking through the Foundation Establishment stage from this inheritance, he basically lost interest.
After all, he couldn't possibly waste so much time slowly nourishing an unreliable soul.
However, he was quite interested in the Soul-controlling Wood, a second-level spirit wood mentioned in this inheritance.
After all, this second-level spirit wood was somewhat related to his specialties.
If he could get ahold of this thing, perhaps he could develop some unique applications.
Taking this inheritance and putting it aside, Fang Yun then took out another Foundation Establishment cultivation technique that the robust man had given him.
Compared to the obsessive precision of that inheritance, the Foundation Establishment techniques provided by the robust man were relatively ordinary.
Although these techniques were quite ordinary, they indeed conformed to the mainstream Foundation Establishment techniques of this era.
Among these Foundation Establishment techniques, there was one particularly special technique.
A technique called Golden Body Skills, which cultivates the physical body of a person, said to have been transmitted from beyond this domain.
This Golden Body Skills also had a section on breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage, which allowed the practitioner to break through by cultivating their physique.
However, the process of breaking through the Foundation Establishment requires a second-level spiritual object called Golden Body Fruit.
In the remarks of this technique, it is stated that this fruit can only be found at the origin of this technique beyond the domain,
meaning that it is impossible to break through the Foundation Establishment stage with this technique within the Wind Spirit Sea Domain.
Apart from this special technique, the other techniques were relatively ordinary.
They basically matched with the Heavenly Dao's Five Elements or had wind and thunder attributes.
One particularly suited to Fang Yun's needs was a technique called Heavenly Origin Technique, which embodies the Five Elements attributes.
After all, the mana he was currently cultivating already incorporated all Five Elements, and this Five Elements power had undergone several transformations, making it much stronger than ordinary Five Elements power.
If he continued to cultivate a technique with the attributes of the Five Elements, it would clearly meet his needs.
However, whether it's a technique embracing all Five Elements or directed towards various attributes,
Fang Yuan discovered that to break through the Foundation Establishment realm with these techniques, various second-stage spiritual objects corresponding to different attributes are required.
For example, a wind attribute technique called Clear Wind Skill requires a wind attribute crystal that can only be found where fierce winds wreak havoc, using this crystal to merge into one's own mana to break through the Foundation Establishment stage.
Similarly, techniques oriented towards the Five Elements also require respective second-level spiritual objects of the Five Elements.
And the Heavenly Origin Technique needs five different second-level spiritual objects of the Five Elements to break through the Foundation Establishment stage.
The reason for needing spiritual objects' assistance lies in the fact that these objects contain a higher realm of energy.
Moreover, this energy has certain transformative properties that can help a cultivator in the Qi Cultivation realm transform their mana.
As for whether there's an Elixir Pill called Foundation Establishment Elixir that aids in breaking through, Fang Yun is unaware.
At least among the techniques given by the robust man, it was only mentioned that various second-level spiritual objects were needed, without mention of such Elixir Pills.
Regardless of whether these Elixir Pills exist, just these second-level spiritual objects alone, Fang Yun has no idea where to find.
After all, these strategically significant spiritual objects are surely completely controlled by large forces.
For a lone loose cultivator like himself, finding comprehension of these matters isn't easy, let alone acquiring such spiritual objects?
It seems, the ultimate hope still lies in his Golden Finger.
Perhaps he could find a seed of a second-level spiritual object and then try to cultivate it.
To see if he could grow the second-level spiritual objects he needs.
To find such seeds, it seems necessary to approach markets established by these large forces.
But before that, Fang Yun still needed to familiarize himself with Heavenly Origin Technique, to see if this technique could provide some help to him during the Qi Cultivation stage.
However, after carefully perusing this cultivation technique, Fang Yun realized that the structure of the Five Elements Magical Power formed by this cultivation technique was clearly inferior compared to the Five Elements Magical Power he had enhanced multiple times before.
Through understanding this cultivation technique, his current Five Elements Magical Power had reached the peak of the Qi Cultivation stage.
It seemed that he only needed a Second Level Spiritual Object with Five Elements attributes to initiate the transformation of his Five Elements Magical Power.
Since this cultivation technique was of no help to him, and he had also found methods to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage within these techniques,
Fang Yun decided not to study these cultivation techniques any further.
Seeing that the Spirit Plants he had planted still needed some time to grow,
It was a good time to go out and look for the seeds of the Second Level Spiritual Plants he needed.
He could also inquire if there were other ways to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
After all, the breakthrough methods he knew were not included in the techniques given by the muscular man.
Given his enmity with the muscular man, Fang Yun was also a bit worried that the muscular man might have left some troubles for him in this aspect.
Having thought through these matters, Fang Yun soared into the sky and flew toward the huge island he had discovered before.
As there were many cultivators on that island, it should be a congregating place for cultivators, perfect for him to gather the information he needed.
In no time, relying on Fang Yun's current speed, he was quickly nearing that island again.
He descended from mid-air, stabilized his flying speed, and slowly headed towards the island.
Following the other cultivators, he landed near a city at the island's dock.
"Moyu City!"
Fang Yun looked up at the name of the city and then, after paying a Low Grade Spirit Stone, he entered the city.
The city was bustling with activity. If it weren't for the different levels of Mana fluctuations emitted by the pedestrians walking in the city,
Fang Yun would even doubt if he had arrived in a mortal's city.
The layout of the city had some similarities with Sea Origin City he had previously visited.
Basically, there were a large number of shops on both sides of the streets, emanating various Spirit Energy fluctuations.
This signified the precious attributes of the goods within the shops.
Fang Yun walked through several streets and then spotted a shop called Spiritual Grass Pavilion.
He hesitated briefly, then lifted the shop curtain and walked in.
The shop wasn't very large, only a few dozen square meters.
Inside was a large counter which appeared to be made of glass-like material, resembling a rectangular box.
Various kinds of boxes were placed inside the counter containing various Spiritual Medicines.
Just as Fang Yun was inspecting, a young and beautiful female cultivator approached him.
"Esteemed senior, are you looking for any particular Spirit Grass?
Please tell me, let me introduce you to our Spiritual Grass Pavilion!"
Fang Yun briefly glanced at the Spirit Grass inside the counter and saw that they were mostly Level 1 Spirit Grasses, not a single Second Level Spirit Grass, obviously not meeting his needs.
However, he still asked: "Do you have any seeds for Second Level Spiritual Plants?"
As soon as Fang Yun's words fell, several cultivators who were browsing the goods looked over.
Although they could not sense Fang Yun's level of cultivation, they roughly guessed his intentions.
Thus, odd expressions appeared on everyone's faces.
"Senior, we indeed have the seeds of Second Level Spiritual Plants that you need!
Shall we go inside and talk?"
Fang Yun slightly furrowed his brows, seeing the expressions from the people around, he sensed that something was amiss with his words, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong at the moment.
Thus, he nodded and followed the female cultivator into the back room.
