"Take this time to show me what you've gained over the past few years. I'll help you prepare some medicinal baths to strengthen your body. Whether you're a magic cultivator or a sword cultivator, a strong physique is very important."
Yinreng bowed again: "Thank you, sister-in-law. I will consider it."
He Zhuo waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, stop with all this formality."
Three days passed quickly. After Xiao Ba returned, He Zhuo told Xiao Ba what he had said as usual. Unexpectedly, Xiao Ba wanted to stay and wait for the Feng Lei Ge exam next year.
We must support the child's idea. Besides, Xiao Ba has four spiritual roots, so he won't get good training in a major sect. He'll just be a menial disciple. However, there was plenty of time, so He Zhuo took Yinreng and Xiao Ba to the Xuantian Sect.
Having gained a lot of experience along the way, He Zhuo restrained his Golden Core stage aura. However, many who had their eyes on them as "fat sheep" and were about to rob them ended up being robbed instead.
The looted spirit stones were just enough for a few people to use the teleportation array. They arrived at the city near the Xuan Tian Sect's gate, Xuan Tian City, one month before the sect's recruitment drive.
After undergoing a month-long assessment, Yinreng officially entered the outer sect of the Xuantian Sect, becoming an outer disciple. Since reaching the Foundation Establishment stage would qualify him as an inner disciple, Yinreng chose sword cultivation.
Yinreng, who was nearly 60 years old, was at the 7th level of Qi Refining. He gained two levels during his enlightenment, and he also gained two levels during the 3 years of seclusion with Hezhuo. He also gained one level on the way here with Hezhuo's help. The amount of beast blood and medicinal herbs he used was countless.
He Zhuo also passed the assessment smoothly and became an outer sect elder of the Xuan Tian Sect. The main reason was that He Zhuo found out that there was no Buddhist sect in this lower thousand realm.
After officially joining the sect, He Zhuo took on several missions and, with his son, returned to Fenglei Pavilion after a series of trials. To increase the chances of his son joining the sect, He Zhuo used a Foundation Building Array on Xiao Ba, which is known to be a technique that has been lost in this lower realm.
After more than half a year, Xiao Ba successfully established his foundation and joined the sect. He Zhuo gave him a level-one cultivation technique, the "Thousand Swords Manual." A mother naturally supports her son's ambition to become a sword cultivator. After all, even the Great Master Guangwei only used a Yellow-level technique; a level-one technique would cause a sensation throughout the Lower Thousand Realms if word got out.
This cultivation technique is divided into three parts: upper, middle, and lower. It can be practiced all the way up to the Tribulation Transcending stage. It is a high-level technique among Earth-grade techniques. He Zhuo only gave Xiao Ba the upper part, which can be practiced up to the Golden Core stage. However, judging from the upper part, it looks like a high-level Yellow-grade technique. In fact, it is a technique that accumulates strength and then unleashes its power. It was carefully selected by He Zhuo.
Cultivation techniques are divided into Unranked, Human, Yellow, Earth, and Heaven levels, which are further subdivided into Human, Earth, Intermediate, and Advanced levels.
He Zhuo discovered that there was a shortage of Yellow-level cultivation techniques in the Lower Thousand Realms; to be precise, there was a shortage of Yellow-level advanced cultivation techniques and above.
There are many types of Foundation Establishment, and Perfect Foundation Establishment is extremely rare. Without He Zhuo's help, it would be a pipe dream for someone with four spiritual roots to achieve Perfect Foundation Establishment. Just think back to when He Zhuo established his foundation, he used a Foundation Establishment Array, and the top-grade spirit stones and gold spirit essence he used were all incredibly expensive.
He Zhuo practiced a Heaven-level technique, the same one his master practiced, called the "Money Technique." It's unclear whether the person who created this technique was particularly fond of money, but they simply gave it a random name.
This cultivation method has a unique feature: with each upgrade, such as from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, and from Golden Core to Nascent Soul, the person will shrink. In fact, this is because impurities in the bones and blood have been eliminated, and the essence and marrow have been thoroughly cleansed.
When He Zhuo first became a Golden Core cultivator, he had shrunk by nearly 30 centimeters, but he has now barely recovered.
