Lin Xu couldn’t help but ask.
"The reason... I mentioned before, it’s not necessarily successful, so I can only choose you as the experiment. After all, you have a Water Spirit Root, just right for practicing the Mystic Nether Origin Scripture, and your cultivation has reached the twelfth level of Void Immortal, ready for breakthrough..."
Li Qian said calmly, "Others are not suitable."
"Master, but I want Foundation Establishment, and there’s no Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object?"
"Didn’t you get an opportunity before? If I’m not mistaken, it should be an Innate Spiritual Object, and it’s perfectly suitable for your Spirit Root..."
"Uh... Master, that thing is an Innate Spiritual Object? But I’ve already eaten it, though most energy is still deposited within me, it’s surely not enough for Foundation Establishment?"
Lin Xu couldn’t help but say.
"That’s natural... After all, what you ate was at most part of the Innate Spiritual Object, or it was just a derivative. However, you have bonded with its aura... Next time when you’re about to reach Foundation Establishment, I will help you capture it."
Lin Xu suddenly understood why his master chose him to impart the Mystic Nether Origin Scripture. The main reason was probably this.
As for the Water Spirit Root and the twelfth level of Void Immortal, those are not important.
After all, among his master’s disciples, there is more than just him with the Water Attribute Spirit Root...
It is at this moment that he realizes how lucky he is.
Though his master mentioned that once he steps on this path and fails, he may never reach Foundation Establishment Realm, but if successful, his future would be limitless.
"Alright, go back and practice well, consolidate your cultivation. Remember, don’t absorb spiritual energy for cultivation in the future, use Immortal Spirit Stones directly..."
Then he took out a batch of Immortal Spirit Stones and elixir and gave them to Lin Xu.
Since Lin Xu practices the Mystic Nether Origin Scripture, he must not lack cultivation resources, especially Immortal Spirit Qi, which is of utmost importance.
As for why not use Immortal Energy.
Not to mention that even Li Qian doesn’t have enough, and Lin Xu hasn’t reached Foundation Establishment, so he can’t use Immortal Energy yet... Immortal Spirit Qi is enough.
Only when the Principle Seed is fully formed and preparing for its sprouting will Immortal Energy be used.
That’s still a long way off.
Even with an Innate Spiritual Object, whether Lin Xu can leverage the Innate Spiritual Object for Foundation Establishment is a matter of probability.
It’s said that the highest success rate for Foundation Establishment is with the Foundation Establishment Pill, almost guaranteeing success.
But the crafting of the Foundation Establishment Pill... Li Qian simply doesn’t have the Elixir Recipe.
Even if he had the Elixir Recipe, the materials probably couldn’t be gathered.
After packing the items, Lin Xu gave a salute and then left the Chenzhong Cave Heaven.
Li Qian arrived at Wu Shuang’s cultivation site.
Inside the bamboo house. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the n0velfire.net
When Wu Shuang saw Li Qian arriving, she couldn’t wait and said, "Qian Yuan, we haven’t practiced for over a month. We must practice several times to make up for it during this time."
For more than a month Li Qian has been guiding Lin Xu’s cultivation, so naturally, he hasn’t had time to practice with Wu Shuang.
"Can this be made up?"
Li Qian asked in surprise.
"Of course it can be made up..."
Wu Shuang pulled Li Qian’s hand and entered the bamboo house.
A year and more later.
In Chenzhong Cave Heaven.
Li Qian sensed Lin Xu’s cultivation, which had reached Qi Refining Perfection.
The cultivation and realm have completely merged, indistinguishable from each other.
This indicates having the foundation for Foundation Establishment.
"Prepare, we depart tomorrow."
The next day, Li Qian took Lin Xu from the Feather Immortal Sect and arrived at Boyun Immortal City using the Transmission Array.
This time the place they visited was a secret realm called Deep Sea Secret Realm, because this Secret Realm is almost an ocean, with only some islands, basically without any mainland.
Although this secret realm can produce some special resources, its main purpose is cultivation, particularly beneficial for disciples with Water Spirit Root from the Feather Immortal Sect.
Lin Xu came to the Deep Sea Secret Realm because he encountered a bottleneck, seeking breakthrough opportunities through cultivation, but unexpectedly encountered a great opportunity.
"Master, in this sea area, I encountered a Deep Sea Kun Whale and accidentally got sucked into its body... inside I found that thing or I probably wouldn’t have survived."
At this moment, the two were already on an unnamed island within the Deep Sea Secret Realm.
Surrounded by vast, deep seas.
The Deep Sea Kun Whale is a distinctive exotic beast within the Deep Sea Secret Realm.
It is said to have the bloodline of ancient Kunpeng.
This kind of Deep Sea Kun Whale is enormous, easily hundreds to thousands of meters long... its power is extremely formidable, adult Deep Sea Kun Whales are at least comparable to the first level of a Heavenly Immortal.
It is said that within this Deep Sea Secret Realm exists a Deep Sea Kun Whale whose strength is comparable to Daoist Level, with a body length supposedly exceeding ten thousand meters.
It’s just that it remains hidden in the deep sea, seldom appearing.
Despite the Deep Sea Kun Whale’s strength, it rarely attacks human cultivators.
Just don’t provoke them.
Though occasionally they might accidentally injure.
Lin Xu got swallowed by that Deep Sea Kun Whale.
But it was his good luck that he came out alive and got a great opportunity.
"Master, that Kun Whale is tremendously large, at least over a thousand meters."
Due to the Kun Whale’s aura being too terrifying, his Immortal Sense was completely suppressed, making it impossible to feel the true size of the Kun Whale, only knowing its size was huge to the extreme.
"However, I saw a very distinct characteristic on the Kun Whale’s head, covered in a large area of dark purple crystals."
