Chapter 821: Chapter 466 Three Years Chapter 821: Chapter 466 Three Years After entering the Repairing Heaven Institute, Yan Bingxuan chose the most renowned Yuanqi system of cultivation.
The so-called Yuanqi system is used to research the various combinations and permutations of nature’s spiritual energy to artificially synthesize various types of Evil Qi, Spiritual Power, Divine Light, True Qi, etc.
The origin was the artificial synthesis of Earthly Fiendish Qi created by Elder Yuanxu, and many geniuses of the Repairing Heaven Institute continued the effort, deriving artificial higher grade Spiritual Energy based on the essence of the Five Elements through different conditions and reactions.
Since Elder Yuanxu was the founder of this discipline, it was named “Yuanqi Studies.”
For example, the Pure Yang Spiritual Power that Chen Mobai cultivates could be artificially synthesized from Fire Attribute Spiritual Energy even without a cultivator.
Yan Bingxuan chose this system not only because there were few researchers in this field, but also because she wanted to elevate her Mysterious Ice Spiritual Power to “Ice Soul Divine Light” through the research of Yuanqi.
Once she managed to master the Ice Soul Divine Light, she could perform the Freezing Technique taught by Yan Qiongzhi, which would be very helpful for her future development of the Golden Core Domain.
Chen Mobai naturally fully supported her choice.
After all, he now had great hope for reaching Core Formation and wished for his friends to keep improving and to accompany him on his journey.
Chen Mobai would also join her in classes when he had the time, mainly because he was very curious about Yuanqi Studies and wanted to understand its principles.
However, his primary focus was still on the cultivation of the Guidance Book, as well as courses in governance and military affairs, enriching his knowledge in preparation for leading the entire Eastern Wilderness in the future.
The cultivation of the Guidance Book, however, progressed very slowly.
But Chen Mobai kept a calm mindset, knowing that as long as he could form his Core, he would have all the time he needed in the future.
With Yan Bingxuan’s companionship, the originally tedious process of reading and studying gained an indescribably delightful flavor.
Not long after the start of school, Meng Huang sneaked over, and with Chen Mobai’s help, she successfully broke through to the third layer of Foundation Establishment.
In this peaceful and contented state of mind, Chen Mobai’s cultivation level steadily increased, and his Divine Sense, which had grown during Meng Huang’s breakthrough by listening to the Heartstring Mystical Sound, was tempered like iron ore, gradually turning into Pure Iron through the daily resonance of the Morning Bell.
There’s no need to mention the cultivation of the Pure Yang Scroll, which naturally broke through to the eighth layer of Foundation Establishment at the end of the first year of Yan Bingxuan’s PhD studies at the Repairing Heaven Institute.
At this rate, by the time the PhD studies concluded, he would meet the minimum requirements for Core Formation.
However, not everything went as desired. Chen Xinglan, after taking the modified Foundation Building Pill provided by Chen Mobai, still failed to break through.
It proved that his father was indeed a very ordinary cultivator.
Even after Chen Mobai had used the Formless Puppet to simulate the process several times, he could not overcome that threshold.
After this attempt, Chen Xinglan completely let go. After his Foundation Establishment failure, he lay in the hospital bed, holding Chen Mobai’s hand and said, “Having attempted Foundation Establishment twice, I am content. You no longer need to worry about me in that regard. I will spend the rest of my days peacefully with your mother. If you succeed in forming your Core, just offer incense at our graves every ten years.”
For an ordinary cultivator past the age of sixty, failing Foundation Establishment means a greater loss of life years. Although Chen Mobai purchased Longevity Elixirs through Yu Rulin, Chen Xinglan’s complexion still aged considerably after discharge from the hospital.
Chen Mobai sensed that he might pass away even earlier than his mother, Tang Panchui.
And his mother, Tang Panchui, who had not cultivated Divine Sense for many years, had little hope even with Chen Mobai’s help and simulation with the Formless Puppet based on her personal data. Even with a Foundation Building Pill, the chances were slim.
Moreover, Tang Panchui herself had no thoughts of Foundation Establishment, and when Chen Mobai mentioned it to her, she directly shook her head in refusal.
Chen Xinglan’s two failures in Foundation Establishment had cast a shadow over her, who had inferior aptitude and willpower. She now only wished to live out her remaining days in peace with her family and did not want to suffer the pain of a failed transformation.
Regarding this, Chen Mobai could only nod helplessly.
The cycle of life and death is unavoidable for anyone, even a Huashen Ancestor who at the end of life can only sit in meditation and pass away, with the Primordial Spirit ceasing to exist!
Even with the Turtle Treasure, Chen Mobai could only hope for a lifespan of a thousand years at most.
However, his father’s failure in Foundation Establishment did leave him despondent for a few days.
Life is full of disappointments, but fortunately, he had Yan Bingxuan in Red Sandstone City to accompany him, enabling him to share his sentiments.
After speaking with her, he recovered.
Returning to the Repairing Heaven Institute with Yan Bingxuan for the new semester, Chen Mobai left a Formless Puppet behind to study at the Daoist Academy while his true body went to Xiao Nanshan to cultivate with the help of the abundant Spiritual Energy there.
Time passed quickly amidst the busyness, and half a year flew by in the blink of an eye.
One day, while coming out of seclusion, Chen Mobai checked the Message Talismans outside the Cloud Mist Array.
He learned of an unfortunate piece of news.
That was, Zeng Woyou had attempted to refine two batches of Foundation Building Pills, but both attempts had failed, causing the True Disciples waiting for the pills to be utterly disappointed, including his little disciple, Luo Yixuan.
Some, rather excessively, had already started cursing privately, accusing Zeng Woyou, the head of the Alchemy Department, of overestimating his abilities, wasting the sect’s precious Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms without the skill to refine Foundation Building Pills, thereby squandering many people’s chances of Foundation Establishment.
