#27 - Chapter 27 Ancient Times

After leaving the Golden Sun Mystic Realm, you were not in a hurry to find a place to fuse the World Tree fragment. You refined a memory fragment of the Wang family's ancestor into a jade slip and sent it to the City Lord's Mansion.

This is a memory of the Wang family's ancestor, containing evidence of him being bought by the Demonic Path. You know that in a few days, the Heavenly Demon Sect will launch a large-scale attack on Blackwater Fortress City. From the memory of the Wang family's ancestor, you learned that the Heavenly Demon Sect had already bought a group of people in Blackwater Fortress City to act as internal agents.

You sent this information to the City Lord's Mansion, hoping to reduce some losses.

Fairy Nishang of the City Lord's Mansion was very surprised to receive the information you sent. She was very grateful to you, the "messenger", and wanted to thank you in person, as your information was very timely and could save Blackwater Fortress City from many losses.

But you drifted away.

"I hope this information can help Blackwater Fortress City preserve some of its strength."

"It's time for me to build my foundation too."

Lin Changqing ran his fingers over the text on the panel, feeling very emotional. In the picture, a young cultivator in green robes declined Fairy Nishang's invitation and left Blackwater Fortress City alone with his sword, passing through villages, towns, cities, and many other prosperous scenes of the mortal world.

Foundation Establishment. The former Qi Training cultivator can now build his foundation.

Lin Changqing was very emotional. He didn't have this feeling when he was forging his bones.

But now that he is about to build his foundation, he really feels a little lost.

Dreams that he never dared to think about before can now be easily achieved.

He is not only going to build his foundation, but he is also going to complete the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment!

The Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment will have five times more profound mana than those of the same realm!

Moreover, the probability of forming a Core will be higher than that of his peers.

And he is expected to form a Golden Core!

Core Formation is divided into three situations. The first is for those with poor qualifications or hidden injuries, who will form a False Core, called a False Core True Person.

A False Core is stronger than Foundation Establishment, but weaker than a normal Core Formation cultivator.

The second situation is called a True Core, which is what most people form.

Fairy Nishang and True Person Five White in Blackwater Fortress City have both formed True Cores.

The third type is the Golden Core.

This can only be formed by geniuses among geniuses, and generally only those with Heavenly Spiritual Roots have a chance to complete it.

Once a Golden Core is formed, it will be invincible among peers!

Why did the Heavenly Demon Sect become the overlord of Qingzhou?

It is because the Sect Master, the Devilish Woman Qiu Yue, formed an Imperishable Golden Core. She alone can fight five or six cultivators of the same realm!

This is simply outrageous. In Qingzhou, the orthodox path probably only has about ten late-stage Core Formation great cultivators in total.

The Devilish Woman Qiu Yue can fight five of them alone.

How can this battle be fought?

This is also the reason why the orthodox path is at a disadvantage in this war.

The high-level combat power is not as good as the opponent!

"If I can form a Golden Core, I can reverse the comparison of high-level combat power between the two sides. However, one World Tree fragment should be enough for me to complete the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, but it should not be enough to form a Golden Core,"

Lin Changqing thought.

"After completing the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, I should immediately go to Tianyang Valley to find the second World Tree fragment."

Lin Changqing completed some arrangements for this simulation in his heart, and at the same time, new lines of text were updated on the panel.

You travel north all the way. Five days later, you arrive at a secret cave in the southern part of Blackwater County.

This place is sparsely populated. You set up a formation here, preparing to fuse the World Tree fragment and complete the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment…

You circulate the incantation from the Wang family's ancestor's memory. Slowly, the Ancient Jianmu Diagram floating in the air trembled. Before long, a cyan wooden block about a foot long and irregularly shaped emerged from the Ancient Jianmu Diagram.

"Is this the World Tree fragment?" Lin Changqing held the cyan wooden block in his hand, a woody aroma coming from his nose. Looking at its appearance, the cyan wood was emerald green, with jade-like green light flashing from time to time, giving it an indescribable magical quality.

Holding it in his hand, his skin felt a warm sensation. Listening carefully, the wood trembled slightly. At first, it was a vibrato, but listening carefully, the cyan wood seemed to transmit a vast and ancient sacrificial sound.

Perhaps it was an illusion, but as Lin Changqing held the wood, he seemed to see a towering tree standing in the center of the world in a vast and distant space-time. Its 180 million leaves were all incredibly huge, and each leaf swayed with an ancient star.

Ancient Buddhas, giant demons, ancestral immortals, and many other magical creatures and races worshiped this giant tree.

"The Primordial Era is really fascinating." Lin Changqing was shocked by this vast scene. It was hard to imagine how powerful the World Tree was at its peak!

But even such an existence was cut down in the late Primordial Era.

That era really contained many secrets.

Why was the World Tree, which was worshiped by countless ancient Buddhas, giant demons, and ancestors, cut down?

In the Ancient Era, why did Emperor Xin use the trunk of the World Tree to build the Jianmu Divine Boat and ascend to the Immortal Realm with the whole country?

The Primordial and Ancient Eras have too many secrets…

"Forget it, it's useless to think about these things. Let's build the Heavenly Dao Foundation first."

Lin Changqing shook his head and then focused his attention, beginning to circulate his spiritual power to wrap the cyan wooden block.

Before long, the cyan wooden block disappeared from Lin Changqing's hand.

When it reappeared, it was already inside Lin Changqing's dantian.

This was the fusion method he had searched for in the Wang family's ancestor's memory: first summon it with an incantation, then wrap it with spiritual power.

In this way, the World Tree fragment will automatically enter the dantian.

"I can start attacking the Foundation Establishment."

Lin Changqing sat down cross-legged. The moment the World Tree fragment appeared in his dantian, he felt a vast amount of spiritual power filling his dantian.

Although this spiritual power was vast, it was not violent. Instead, it was extremely gentle and full of vitality.

He began to slowly digest the spiritual power brought by the World Tree fragment.

As time passed, the liquid spiritual power in his dantian began to solidify little by little.

This is Foundation Establishment. The so-called Foundation Establishment is the transformation of the spiritual power in the body from a liquid state to a solid state.

After about three days and three nights, the spiritual power in Lin Changqing's dantian had completely solidified.

Looking inside the dantian, one could see a cyan wooden fragment floating in the center of the uppermost part of the dantian, and the spiritual power at the bottom of the dantian was completely solidified, like stones.

If an outsider saw this scene, they would be surprised.

This complete solidification of spiritual power is the mark of complete Foundation Establishment.

But the solid spiritual power in Lin Changqing's body's dantian did not stop, and began to gradually merge together.

The World Tree fragment in the center of the upper space continued to emit cyan spiritual power, as if guiding something.

Slowly, these solid spiritual powers accumulated and merged together in the dantian, forming a stone pillar three zhang long.

On this stone pillar, there were Dao patterns, as well as cranes flying in the clouds, spiritual clouds, yellow mist, and various other visions, which were extremely mysterious.

"Earthly Dao Foundation Establishment, not enough!"

Lin Changqing continued to urge the World Tree fragment, and the cyan spiritual power continued to radiate, guiding the stone pillar to change again.

For ordinary Foundation Establishment, the liquid only needs to form a solid.

For Earthly Dao Foundation Establishment, the solid spiritual power condenses together to form a Pillar of the Great Dao.

The stone pillar that Lin Changning had just formed was the Pillar of the Great Dao, with various immortal visions of cranes and spiritual fish leaping.

But Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment is more than that!

After another seven days and seven nights, the Pillar of the Great Dao in Lin Changqing's dantian grew taller.

At this moment, it reached a height of nine zhang and nine chi, which was a height that conformed to the numbers of the Great Dao.
