"Just as Father said!"
At this moment, personally experiencing the accelerated effect brought by the Spirit Gathering Pool, Lu Yuanshan felt truly exhilarated in his heart.
"The effect of this Spirit Gathering Pool can indeed enhance cultivation speed!"
With the cultivation acceleration doubled by the Spirit Gathering Pool, such a cultivation treasure ground is enough to tempt all Qi Cultivators, Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and even Crystallization Cultivators.
Compared to the cultivation cave mansion, the efficiency improvement here is more than just a little.
With such a treasure land existing, who would still want to join other sects?
As long as one isn’t foolish, just with the presence of a cultivation field in Cyan Mountain Sect, it’s enough to attract people to scramble to join.
In the future, to quickly enhance the disciples’ strength, the assistance of this Spirit Gathering Pool will be very significant.
After experiencing the cultivation effect brought by the Spirit Gathering Pool, Lu Yuanshan spent the entire day cultivating within it.
During this time, Lu Zhiwei was also called over. After learning about the cultivation effects of the Spirit Gathering Pool, she was surprised but did not say much.
For these miraculous means of Lu Ping, Lu Zhiwei had witnessed them more than once, so her heart did not stir with too much amazement.
Time flew by quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another month passed.
On this day, movement finally came from within the cultivation cave mansion in the back mountain forbidden area.
A large surge of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi converged rapidly, concentrating above the cultivation cave mansion, forming a whirling mass that poured into the mansion.
The fluctuation of this Spiritual Qi swiftly caught Lu Yuanshan’s attention.
Having gone through Foundation Establishment once, seeing such a scene of Spiritual Qi gathering again, Lu Yuanshan could easily guess what was happening.
His younger brother was about to successfully achieve Foundation Establishment!
As expected, only a moment later, a hearty laughter of relief echoed from within the cultivation cave mansion.
The restricted doorway of the mansion slowly opened, and out walked a tall figure, none other than Lu Changfeng.
Walking out of the cultivation cave mansion and catching sight of Lu Yuanshan standing outside, Lu Changfeng laughed heartily, a face full of happiness.
"I succeeded in my Foundation Establishment!"
With that said, the Foundation Establishment aura on Lu Changfeng was completely unmasked, entirely released.
At this time, Lu Zhiwei also came swiftly, landing with her sword beside Lu Changfeng.
Feeling the Foundation Establishment aura released by Lu Changfeng, Zhiwei’s face lit up with joy, her heart filled with happiness.
The third Foundation Establishment Cultivator of Cyan Mountain Sect was born!
"Hahaha, little sister, you came just in time. I was thinking of finding you later to good news with you."
"There indeed is a day when I, Lu Changfeng, successfully achieved Foundation Establishment!"
"The future of the sect also has my support!"
The news of Lu Changfeng’s successful Foundation Establishment soon spread within Cyan Mountain Sect over the following days, causing disciples to feel both envious and joyous while secretly firming their resolve to cultivate diligently.
From the early decline of the sect, where no Foundation Establishment Cultivators led, to now—in just a few years’ time?
Three Foundation Establishment Cultivators had emerged one after another!
In the not-too-distant future, there will also be a fourth and a fifth!
Even Crystallization Cultivators can be looked forward to.
The development of Cyan Mountain Sect is getting better and better.
Under the influence of Lu Changfeng’s successful Foundation Establishment, the cultivation atmosphere within the sect grew much more intense in those few days.
And to quickly consolidate Lu Changfeng’s strength, Lu Yuanshan summoned Lu Changfeng solo this day.
"Changfeng, the reason for calling you this time is to present you with two magical artifacts for your protection."
"This is the Tier Three Top-Grade Blazing Heaven Sword."
"This is the Celestial Ruins Godslaying Saber, also at Tier Three Top-Grade."
"Both magical artifacts are well-suited to your Fire Attribute Spirit Root. Now that you’ve entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, it’s the right time to equip yourself with new magical artifacts." Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novelFirｅ.net
"The Tier Three Top-Grade Celestial Ruins Godslaying Saber—this is something you obtained after taking down Ma Xianming with your own hands. By rights, it’s your spoil of war. How can you give it to me?"
Lu Changfeng was rather tempted by the Blazing Heaven Sword and thus accepted it smoothly.
But for the Tier Three Top-Grade Celestial Ruins Godslaying Saber, Lu Changfeng felt a bit embarrassed.
This is the best tier among the three-tier magical artifacts. Only under Lu Yuanshan’s control can it unleash its maximum value.
He himself was only at First-Layer Foundation Establishment and even if he wielded it, it certainly wouldn’t be as effective as Lu Yuanshan.
"No need to say more. If I ask you to take it, just take it."
Lu Yuanshan laughed and scolded: "There will be more opportunities to obtain better-tier magical artifacts in the future, so you don’t have to refuse."
"I have the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword, which is enough for my main use."
"Moreover, I still have the Wind Thunder Wings, Qingyin Flying Sword, Black Tortoise Armor, and Primordial Magnetic Treasure Bottle among these Tier Three magical artifacts, sufficient for my use against enemies. You don’t need to worry about my lack of artifacts."
Under Lu Yuanshan’s insistence, Lu Changfeng eventually accepted the Celestial Ruins Godslaying Saber.
"Then thank you, Big Brother."
Acquiring two Tier Three magical artifacts made Lu Changfeng’s strength even more robust.
These past few days, as he practiced the art of Sword Flight, wielding the two new artifacts also helped him become completely familiar with them.
"Big Brother, is there any sect mission that I can lead a team on? I’m eager to go out and gain some experience."
"Being in secluded cultivation for over half a year has been too stifling."
After completing his Sword Flight studies and mastering the new artifacts, Lu Changfeng approached Lu Yuanshan, asking if there were any recent sect missions, eager to truly experience the specific power of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Only through actual combat can the specific differences between the Foundation Establishment Stage and the Qi Cultivation Stage be truly felt.
At Merit Hall earlier, Lu Changfeng made a point to take a look. There were several tasks of low difficulty, with target opponents being some Qi Cultivators or demon beasts.
Such level of opponents no longer posed any challenge to him.
As he stepped into the Foundation Establishment Stage, his perspective on opponents would subtly elevate.
He couldn’t even be bothered with Qi Cultivation Level opponents.
"I do have an outside sect duty that Father assigned me to some days ago,"
Lu Yuanshan contemplated.
"In the Jiangzhou County of Chu Kingdom, in an area called Dan Cloud Mountain, a group of rogue cultivators attacked passing merchant teams, disrupting local order and peace. Father intended for me to make a move, to head to Dan Cloud Mountain and clear out these rogue cultivator scoundrels."
"Are you interested in this task?"
Lu Yuanshan inquired.
"Clearing out rogue cultivator scoundrels, that aligns with my interests. I currently can’t stand those rogue cultivator scoundrels who rob and plunder!"
"What realms are these rogue cultivator scoundrels approximately at?"
Lu Changfeng asked, for he still needed to clarify the enemy’s strength and shouldn’t charge in blindly.
If there were several Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators, he would really have to back down and not go.
"The group of rogue cultivator scoundrels consists of about nine individuals, ranging in strength from Eighth-Layer Qi Cultivation to First-Layer Foundation Establishment."
Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng’s eyes lit up.
"The strongest is at First-Layer Foundation Establishment, so it’s not really troublesome."
"Let me handle it this time. I’ll go to Dan Cloud Mountain and take care of these rogue cultivator scoundrels!"
Speaking of clearing rogue cultivator scoundrels, this wasn’t Lu Changfeng’s first rodeo.
