The Path to Immortality

Fang Ping was calmer than ever before, maintaining his foundation-building state, and taking the second portion of the foundation-building spiritual substance [Moonlight Bamboo Marrow] at the right time!

As soon as the Moonlight Bamboo Marrow, like sweet yogurt, entered his stomach, it quickly helped Fang Ping and continuously generated new mana.

The spiritual energy in the original radius of 100 meters had already shown signs of calming down slightly, and with the promotion of the foundation-building spiritual substance, the speed of gathering was accelerated again.

With additional supplements, more liquid mana was continuously generated.

It was unknown how long it had been, when the medicinal power of the foundation-building pill and the foundation-building spiritual substance was almost exhausted, and Fang Ping's meridians and physique had also reached their limits, the violent spiritual energy of heaven and earth finally gradually subsided.

When the last wisp of mist-like mana was also transformed, the mana lake below Fang Ping's dantian had condensed into 90 drops of liquid mana, which seemed to have taken shape!

Only ten drops were left to break the 100 drops.

You know, for some cultivators in the early stage of foundation building who have a weak foundation and weak strength, if they have more than 100 drops of liquid mana, they can almost try to advance to the middle stage of foundation building!

Since then, the second level of mana has been perfectly passed.

However, such a huge amount of liquid mana cannot be maintained stably for a long time by cultivators who have not yet truly established their foundation.

If Fang Ping cannot take the last step and use his spiritual consciousness to help suppress and maintain the liquid mana until the realm is initially stable, even the mana lake that has been generated will dissipate again in the next few days and gradually fall back to the gaseous mana of the Qi training cultivator.

This is the most critical and mysterious third level - the spiritual consciousness level!

As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is infused into the body, the body is cleansed by the body, and the mana form is changed in essence, two of Fang Ping's three treasures of spirit, energy and spirit have undergone qualitative changes and sublimation.

And spirit, energy and spirit are originally one, and the changes of these two will drive the final transformation of the soul.

The external manifestation is that the spiritual consciousness that can be possessed after the Qi is drawn into the body becomes a real, externalized divine consciousness!

Only by taking this last step can the liquid mana be stable and long-lasting, and the cultivator can truly build a foundation and enjoy a lifespan of 200 years!

Previously, Liu Wuchen tried to impact the foundation building. Although he passed the first two levels by luck, he finally fell before the divine consciousness level and failed to build a foundation. It can be seen how difficult this level is.

Fortunately, Fang Ping also has a deep accumulation of divine consciousness.

The [Taiwei Yangshen Pian] he practiced is a rare secret method that can nourish and temper the soul in the Qi training period.

After decades of practice, Fang Ping's soul strength is no less than that of a cultivator who has just entered the foundation building period. Only an opportunity is needed to give birth to divine consciousness.

At this moment, the divine consciousness level, which should have been the last difficult level, has become the origin of this opportunity!

With the feedback of the physical body and mana, and the medicinal power that the foundation-building pill had separated in advance and disappeared in the sea of ​​consciousness, Fang Ping clearly felt that the invisible cool breath was being absorbed by the soul, and was being strengthened imperceptibly.

However, the soul is so fragile and sensitive that even a slight touch is enough to make ordinary cultivators feel a splitting headache or even faint.

At the critical moment of advancing to the foundation-building stage, if you can't hold on and faint, the result will definitely be failure!

However, feeling the pain of the soul being strengthened and transformed, Fang Ping's slightly pale face showed a faint smile.

"That's it?"

"Why do you feel that it's not as painful as the pain I usually feel when practicing the Soul-Suppressing Seal?"

Fang Ping, who had long been accustomed to this kind of pain, calmly experienced the feeling of the soul's rapid growth while picking up the last foundation-building spiritual item [Morning and Evening Flower] in front of him.

The delicate spiritual flower that would bloom in the morning and wither in the evening if it were not sealed by a ban, just after swallowing it, it turned into a mysterious and cool airflow, quietly blending into the soul.

The soul, which had already grown to the extreme, seemed to break through the confinement and restrictions of the physical body. Stimulated by the morning and evening flowers, suddenly expanded again.

In the dark, some kind of mysterious transformation occurred.

Even though Fang Ping had been concentrating on sensing the changes in the soul, he could not find out how the transformation was completed.

It seemed that in just a moment, the spiritual consciousness that was originally invisible and intangible and could only look inward at itself turned into a real power that could be released outward.

Under the exploration of this invisible power, everything around became particularly clear.

Every blade of grass, every flower, and every speck of dust, as if reflected by a mirror, clearly appeared in his heart.

It was also at this moment that Fang Ping successfully passed the last level of the foundation-building spiritual consciousness.

The three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit were perfectly sublimated, driving the evolution of Fang Ping's life essence.

After taking this step, he was no longer the same person he once was.

Once the foundation was built, he would live for 200 years. He could fly with the light of escape without the help of external objects. From then on, he would be separated from the immortals and embark on the starting point of the true road to immortality!

After decades of hard practice, he finally achieved enlightenment.

All kinds of emotions surged in his heart.

He wanted to sing loudly and let the world know his joy.

But the timing was not right.

Fang Ping could feel that his overly powerful accumulation had not been completely transformed with the completion of the foundation.

With the help of the enlightenment of Fu Lingxin, Fang Ping restrained his mind, closed his eyes, and fell into a state of tortoise breathing like a baby. He let his own breath and the accumulation that had not yet been consumed slowly promote the final improvement.

………

The celestial phenomena of the Life and Death Peak were quite special.

Maybe a moment ago, there was thunder and heavy rain.

But in the blink of an eye, the sky was clear and the sun was high.

In this cycle of the four seasons and the changes of the celestial phenomena, ninety-nine days passed in a flash.

When Fang Ping slowly opened his eyes from his tortoise breath, two purple rays of light appeared in the dim cave, as if a white light appeared in the empty room.

Although he had not eaten or drunk for a hundred days, the cultivators could already do the initial fasting after building the foundation. In addition, the three spiritual objects he swallowed during the foundation-building period moistened him. Fang Ping not only did not feel weak at all, but felt that his whole body was full of powerful strength.

"Is this the foundation-building state?"

Feeling the mana and vitality in his body, and the transcendent state of being able to control everything within a radius of dozens of feet with just a thought, Fang Ping couldn't help but show a gratified smile on his face.

He pinched a magic formula and condensed a water mirror in front of him, and took a brief look.

After building the foundation, he, who had a lifespan of 200 years, changed from a middle-aged man to a state in his twenties or thirties.

His skin was as white as jade and he was as vigorous as a young man. He could not tell that he was over fifty years old.

Unconsciously, he even had a unique Taoist charm and aura of a foundation-building cultivator.

He casually cast a dust-repelling spell to sweep away some dust on his Taoist robe, and Fang Ping got up from the bluestone bed.

Although his body and blood did not show any signs of stagnation or discomfort, he still moved around a little in the cave where he was in seclusion, slightly adapted to his body after building the foundation, and then examined the improvement he had gained after building the foundation.

The first was the purple-red liquid mana filled in the dantian.

The mana of a foundation-building cultivator is fundamentally different from that of a Qi-training cultivator. One drop of mana has great power, and the spell it activates is enough to easily kill a cultivator in the late stage of Qi training.

And Fang Ping has ninety drops of such liquid mana!
