56: Chapter 56 Spatial Transformation, Foundation Shines Brightly, Mid-Foundation Establishment Stage
The inspections by the City Guard Army were like stones thrown into a pool, causing ripples in Ye Qing's heart, which then subsided.
The tense atmosphere outside only strengthened his determination to increase his strength.
The Immortal Cave Formation was fully activated, and the warning Restriction was set up.
Ye Qing sat cross-legged in the center of the cultivation room, his five centers facing the sky, his mind as calm as water.
His consciousness connected to the 150-zhang Cave Heaven within his body.
The scene inside the Cave Heaven was already vastly different from when it was first formed.
The Chaos Qi swirled like mist, flowing slowly under the silver radiance of the moonlight jade tree and the specks of starlight, as if it were breathing on its own.
The black soil in the center was vast and fertile, with spiritual plants lush and green.
A Floating Landmass hovered above, where the moonlight star seed stood tall and graceful, and the jade marrow ganoderma and soul soothing flower shimmered with spiritual light.
The Void Turbulence Zone at the edge had expanded to five zhang, with tiny cracks appearing and disappearing, emitting palpitations-inducing fluctuations.
The entire space was vibrant and full of Dao charm, continuously feeding back pure and vast energy.
However, Ye Qing could feel that the space seemed to have reached a certain Bottleneck.
The energy fed back was still majestic, but its efficiency in nourishing and pushing his Foundation had begun to slow down.
It was like a pond that was already overflowing; the river channels needed to be widened and the Foundation deepened to accommodate more flowing water.
The barrier between the Foundation Establishment Early Stage and the Middle Stage was invisible and intangible, yet it truly existed.
Ordinary Cultivators would either rely on time-consuming grinding or use Medicinal Pill external forces to force a Breakthrough.
Ye Qing chose neither.
With a slight movement of his mind, he no longer passively accepted the feedback from the space, but actively guided, controlled, and mobilized the power of the entire space.
Deep within his Divine Soul, the Void Dao Seed trembled slightly, emitting profound fluctuations.
Using the Dao Seed as a guide, Ye Qing's Divine Sense spread like an invisible network to every corner of the space.
The heaviness of the black soil, the vitality of the spiritual plants, the clear brilliance of the moonlight star seed, the warmth of the jade marrow ganoderma, the tranquility of the soul soothing flower, the tearing of the Void Turbulence Zone, the tolerance of the Chaos Qi, the eternity of the star light points...
Various attributes and various Dao charms were clearly captured, perceived, and understood by his Divine Sense.
Then, he began to attempt to guide these forces with his own embryonic concept of the Hunxu Yandao Scripture.
With the Five Elements cycle as the Foundation, harmonizing Chaos and governing all spirits.
As his Divine Thought moved, pure Earth-element essence rose from the black soil, vigorous Wood-element vitality flowed from the branches and leaves of the spiritual plants, the Water-element tranquility was contained in the silver radiance of the moonlight jade tree, the Metal-element sharpness burst from the edge of the Void Turbulence Zone, and a trace of Fire-element change naturally derived from the flow of Chaos Qi.
Five-colored radiance rose from all parts of the space, slowly gathering, and under the guidance of Ye Qing's Divine Sense, began to rotate in an orderly manner, generating and overcoming each other, forming a miniature Five Elements cycle existing within the space.
Once the Five Elements cycle was formed, it resonated with the power of Chaos, stars, moonlight, and the Void Realm contained within the space itself.
Chaos Qi embraced everything, serving as the base.
The star light points remained eternally still, dotting the cycle nodes and enhancing stability.
The clear moonlight nourished and calmed, smoothing out the restlessness of the energy.
The power of the Void Realm was mysterious and unpredictable, running through the entire cycle, adding changes and potential.
The entire space seemed to come alive.
It was no longer just simply feeding back energy, but began to extract, fuse, and sublimate the Origin power of various attributes in a more efficient way that was more in line with Ye Qing's own path, transforming them into streams of more pure, more mysterious Chaos Void spiritual power carrying the unique intent of the Hunxu Yandao Scripture, continuously feeding it back.
This newly born spiritual power was far superior in quality to the past.
It was not only more majestic, but also contained the wonders of the Five Elements generation and Restriction, the tolerance of Chaos, the solidity of the eternal stars, the calming effect of the moonlight, and a trace of the unpredictable intent of the Void Realm.
The spiritual power rushed like a floodgate opening, surging into Ye Qing's limbs and bones, and pouring into his Dantian Foundation.
Inside the Dantian, that inch-sized Foundation, Chaos-colored, swirling with five-colored radiance, dotted with stars, imprinted with wind and thunder, and containing the Void Realm intent, suddenly emitted a clear ringing sound under the washing and nourishment of this brand-new spiritual power!
The Foundation trembled slightly, and its surface shone brightly.
The five-colored radiance accelerated its rotation, the star light points became more dazzling, the wind and thunder patterns clearly emerged, and the Void Realm intent became increasingly profound.
The Foundation itself grew, solidified, and expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye.
From an inch in size, it gradually expanded to one and a half inches, two inches...
The structure became more complex and stable, and the Dao charm became deeper and more restrained.
The moment the Foundation expanded to two inches and completely stabilized.
Boom!
Ye Qing's body shook violently, and a roar like a rushing river and the opening of the Void Realm came from within his body!
Foundation Establishment Mid Stage, achieved!
The Dantian Qi Sea expanded accordingly, and the total amount and purity of his mana increased several times, viscous like mercury, heavy like a mountain, with wind and thunder faintly following in its flow, stars flickering and vanishing, and Void Realm ripples undulating.
His Divine Soul grew simultaneously under the feedback of the Foundation and the nourishment of the space, his Divine Sense perception range broke through 150 zhang, condensed like substance, and could leave his body for 100 zhang, gathering and dispersing at will.
His Physical Body received a deep baptism from the brand-new mana, his Qi and blood were like a Dragon, his muscles and bones resonated, precious light flowed under his skin, and his strength, toughness, and recovery ability leaped again.
More importantly, his control over mana, his realization of the Dao of the Void Realm, his understanding of the Five Elements generation and Restriction, and his guidance of the power of space all stepped into a new Realm with this Breakthrough, as naturally as water flowing into a channel.
Ye Qing slowly opened his eyes.
Chaos radiance flashed in his eyes and disappeared, then returned to deep calm.
Foundation Establishment Mid Stage, achieved naturally.
Without relying on any external objects, it was entirely based on his own accumulation, the transformation of the space, and his initial practice of the Hunxu Yandao Scripture philosophy.
He sat quietly for a while, familiarizing himself with the newly added power and realizing the various changes brought about by the Breakthrough in his Realm.
His mana circulation was more rounded and free, and with a slight movement of his mind, he could condense the embryonic forms of various Spells containing Five Elements changes and Void Realm characteristics.
His Divine Sense perception became more delicate and subtle; within 100 zhang, the rustling of wind and grass, the flow of Spiritual Qi, and even the subtle fluctuations of others' emotions were all under his control.
His Physical Body was full of explosive power; with every punch and kick, he could split stones and break monuments, and ordinary Magical Artifacts could hardly hurt him.
"Foundation Establishment Mid Stage, my strength is several times stronger than the Early Stage. Now, if I encounter that one-eyed poisonous scorpion again, I don't need to use the Great Void Cleaving Slash; I can take it down with ordinary means."
Ye Qing evaluated his own combat power.
Combined with the tricky Divine Ability brought by the Void Dao Seed, and his own mana, Divine Soul, and Physical Body that far exceeded his peers, fighting across levels against the Foundation Establishment Late Stage should not be a problem.
He sank his consciousness into the space again.
The space also underwent corresponding changes due to his Breakthrough.
The area expanded quietly from 150 zhang to nearly 200 zhang.
The gray mist at the edge became thicker and more solid, slowly advancing outward.
The black soil in the center expanded to more than 50 zhang, with Chaos and jade-like radiance contained within, and the Spiritual Qi almost turned into spiritual liquid, forming several small ponds on the ground.
The Floating Landmass also expanded to four zhang square, and the moonlight star seed on it grew a few more inches, with silver radiance and star points intertwined, full of vitality.
Spiritual plants such as jade marrow ganoderma and soul soothing flower grew even better.
The Void Turbulence Zone expanded to six zhang, the turbulence was more obvious, and occasionally slightly larger space cracks flashed, emitting fluctuations that made even Ye Qing feel a trace of palpitation.
The entire space was more stable and vibrant, and the efficiency and quality of the energy feedback were also improved again.
"The space and I exist and grow together. If I am strong, the space flourishes. If the space flourishes, I become stronger. This is the root of the Hunxu Yandao."
Ye Qing realized this in his heart and exited the space.
He stood up, stretched his muscles and bones, and felt the majestic mana and vigorous vitality surging within him.
He pushed open the door of the quiet room and walked into the courtyard.
It was late at night, the starlight above Liuyun City was brilliant, and the light curtain of the city defense Formation flowed, reflecting the night sky.
The city was still dotted with lights, but compared to the past, it seemed to have a bit more solemnity and a bit less hustle and bustle.
The footsteps of the night patrol soldiers sounded regularly in the distant streets.
"The wind is rising, foretelling a coming storm. Increasing my strength is just in time."
Ye Qing looked up at the starry sky, his eyes calm.
No matter how the outside situation changes, only one's own strength is the Foundation for dealing with all changes.
The Foundation Establishment Mid Stage has been achieved; next, he needs to consolidate his Realm, deepen the deduction and practice of the Hunxu Yandao Scripture, continue to improve his Alchemy, Artifact Refining, and Formation skills, and at the same time closely monitor the movements of Liuyun City and the border.
The path of steady development, one step at a time.
He turned and returned to the quiet room, sat cross-legged, and began to consolidate his newly broken through Foundation Establishment Mid Stage cultivation.
Inside his body, the 200-zhang Cave Heaven was filled with surging Chaos Qi, brilliant moonlight and starlight, swaying spiritual plants, and flowing Dao charm, a scene of prosperity, continuously feeding back pure and vast Hunxu spiritual power.
The legend of the Foundation Establishment Cultivator Ye Qing, in silence, stepped towards a new height.
