Perfect Foundation (II)

"Haaaah..."

Seated in a lotus position, Long Yu took a deep breath and brought out all the materials needed to break through the foundation realm.

In front of him, the Sandbury Bone, Duskflower Dew, and Sea Serpent Core stood quietly.

Like he had murmured to himself before, now he stood at the top of the Sword Peak where all the six elements were gathered.

Fuuu...

Preparing himself, Long Yu made a hand seal, and slowly, the Qi inside his body started to become agitated.

His eyelids fluttered as he felt the breeze of the wind falling into his long hair, making it sway back.

Swoooshhh!

Slowly, Long Yu opened his dantian and started absorbing the Qi from all directions, and at the same time, he injected Qi into the three materials and slowly, started absorpting these properties.

"Agh...!"

Starting at the Sandbury Bone, he instantly felt a demonic energy enter his body, but he kept his calm and continued absorbing until it had been fully absorbed.

That process alone took five hours, which Long Yu immediately passed to the next material, which was Duskflower Dew.

He took the Duskflower Dew and swallowed it directly. The moment the dew was swallowed, it spread throughout his body, purging the lingering demon Qi.

After the Demon Qi was fully removed Long Yu took the Sea Serpent Core and pressed it against his chest, absorbing its high purity.

A soft energy entered his body, and at that moment, Long Yu took the opportunity, and using the Qi that was being absorbed, he started forming a small core of Qi.

As the core took shape, it attracted the soft energy from the Sea Serpent Core, along with remnants of the Sandbury Bone and Duskflower Dew.

They all connected to that same core and slowly formed it.

Long Yu's body was completely sweaty as he did so.

The process of forming the core must be done very slowly and carefully; if not, you could potentially damage your future cultivation.

And only after a few days was Long Yu done perfecting his core.

Break...!

Just as if he had a wall in front of him, it broke, unleashing a bright blue core pulsating with energy that reverberated throughout his being.

Long Yu immediately felt his meridians expand as the purity and potency of his Qi soared like an ascending dragon!

"Hah...! I did it." He wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Closing his eyes, Long Yu felt that his spiritual awareness had been awakened, and now he could use it to see through the world and more!

It had been a great benefit to him!

[Ding! It's detected that the player has reached the Foundation Realm! It's also detected that the user hasn't received any rewards for seven days straight!]

[Due to these factors, the host will receive a special reward.]

Seeing the panel in front of him, Long Yu sighed in relief, thinking that it had been a good choice to break through the Foundation Realm directly.

After all, even the strongest genius decides to prepare themselves to break through the foundation realm; for example, 'Luo Yang' took three months of preparation.

And his talent is much higher than his own!

However, because Long Yu is in a hurry, he knew that he needed to break through Foundation and fast!

[Congratulations! You've received the special dual cultivation technique—"Ten Thousand Lotus Combination Art"!]

"Uhh!? A dual cultivation technique?" Long Yu's eyes narrowed slightly.

This was going to be pretty useful, and even more so if he actually cultivated with the Cold Master who has a Yin Body.

"See details."

[Ten Thousand Lotus Combination Art]

[Grade: Gradeless]

[Description: This dual cultivation art works by clandestinely drawing upon the life force and Yin essence of their partner without their knowledge or consent while dual cultivating with each other. The technique manifests through the illusion of delicate lotus flowers weaving around the practitioners' bodies and slowly drains both the Yin Qi and the life force of the partner.]

[Additional Details: Nobody can detect his technique, and the user can decide if he wants to drain the life force of the partner.]

Seeing the panel in front of him, Long Yu sucked a cold breath. Although this was called a dual cultivation art, it seemed quite evil.

However, seeing the additional details, Long Yu was relieved.

He brought out this dual cultivation art from the system, and in front of his eyes, a small lotus stood quietly.

"Ah... what am I supposed to do with this?" He pondered aloud.

However, as he tried to inject Qi into the small lotus, the Lotus spread an intense wave, and it suddenly turned into a small liquid that entered his Dantian.

Long Yu immediately checked it, and his eyes widened as he saw the same lotus floating on his Dantian.

"Eh... it works like this. That makes it easier." He nodded in satisfaction.

If the Lotus would actually work on its own, Long Yu didn't need to bother himself with using it.

Long Yu sensed the silky Qi flowing through his body and knew it was time to get the new volume of his current martial art.

He realized that since he would eventually lose his Innate Yang Body, it would be best to keep the technique even if it was related to Yin.

"Mhm... I'm here." Long Yu murmured as he arrived at the Manual Library.

He passed through an elder, who simply nodded his head after seeing his cultivation level.

Then, Long Yu went to the "special" section and grabbed the second volume of the technique "Moon Yin Divine Art".

"Great... I have more than enough contribution points to get it."

Smiling faintly, Long Yu made his way towards the reception elder, but suddenly, a woman's figure passed before him.

Pop!

The appraisal skill automatically opened as his eyes landed on her.
