Chapter 491: Chapter 19 The Tao Foundation is Flawed! (Additional Chapter 8/10 for Alliance Leader “FengchenCc”)_4
Only during Qi Refinement, faced with a life-and-death crisis and in order to escape his binds, did he have no choice but to study the Mortal Level Cultivation Technique “Qi Drawing Technique”.
At that time, he thought it was just a Qi Refinement Cultivation Technique, and even if there were any effects, they wouldn’t be significant.
Looking back at his experiences, it seemed to be true, practicing “Qi Drawing Technique” didn’t affect his nearly invincible combat power at his level in the slightest.
But what he didn’t expect was that the hidden danger had always been there and was much bigger than he imagined, it just hadn’t shown itself yet.
That was the flaw in his Dao Foundation.
The repercussions of a flawed Dao Foundation are unnoticeable at lower realms, only when one attains enlightenment does the bind of these flaws become apparent.
And most cultivators simply can’t reach that step, so there’s no need to worry about the flaws in their Dao Foundations.
But Lu Qingshan was different.
If nothing unexpected happened, he would certainly cultivate to that realm, and by then, to remedy the flaws in his Dao Foundation from the beginning would be basically impossible.
It’s like building a skyscraper, if you don’t lay the foundation properly at the start, when you’re constructing the fiftieth floor, is it still possible to rectify the problems with the foundation?
“No!” The Mountain Ghost, looking at the last three grey threads extracted from Lu Qingshan’s body, roared in frustration and unwillingness, “Just this last bit left, why would there be flaws?!!”
Even if there were only three grey threads compared to the hundreds of golden threads, it was insignificant.
But that’s how a Dao Foundation is, once there’s a flaw, even just a thread, it’s no longer a Flawless Dao Foundation, no longer perfect, and compared to a Flawless Dao Foundation, they are utterly different, with a chasm between them in levels.
The Mountain Ghost, more enraged than ever before, caused the thunder to tremble.
It was a long while before the Mountain Ghost gradually calmed down.
“We’ll just have to make do…” Looking at the extremely weakened Lu Qingshan, he muttered.
His Original Core had been shattered by Qin Yitian’s Spell Breaking Sword.
Now, he had no choice.
So, even with a flawed Dao Foundation, he had to grit his teeth and accept it.
“It’s okay, even though there are some flaws in the Dao Foundation, it’s still surely better than that of most Human Cultivators.
Furthermore, if found early, there’s still a chance to find a way to remedy it, although it’s going to be quite difficult…” the Mountain Ghost began to console itself.
On the other hand, seeing Lu Qingshan’s Dao Foundation completely extracted by the Mountain Ghost, Qin Yitian’s eyes reddened, filled with anger and worry.
She suddenly erupted, her body bursting into flames, burning fiercely, intending to reduce the green vines that bound her to ashes so she could break free.
Seeing this display, the Mountain Ghost was unruffled and merely glanced coldly at Qin Yitian, who was still struggling, shook his head, and said expressionlessly, “It’s useless, my roots have long since penetrated this land, which is the source of my power.
As long as I’m in this region, my power is limitless.
Unless you can drain the strength of this land, only then might you stand a chance to contend with me…”
Before the Mountain Ghost finished speaking, Lu Qingshan’s voice suddenly cut in.
“Did you just say that this land is the source of your power, and that draining this land’s strength will defeat you?” Lu Qingshan, who had been pale, spoke suddenly.
Without waiting for the Mountain Ghost to reply, Lu Qingshan laughed to himself, his smile conveying ease, pleasure, and also a strong aura of murderous intent.
