I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency

Chapter 35



Chapter 35

Even though he had already fulfilled all the requirements for Foundation Establishment, Lu Yuan felt that before he officially started, there was one crucial thing that he had yet to do.

He had yet to make an application with the heavens and see if he could achieve Foundation Establishment today.

He was different from the heaven-defying cultivators.

As a heavens-fearing cultivator, the most important thing for Lu Yuan was filial piety towards the heavens.

How could something as important as Foundation Establishment be carried out without the heavens’ knowledge?

If there really was someone who dared to rashly attempt Foundation Establishment without the permission of the heavens, he could only say that the person was very brave.

What was that? That action was akin to not putting the heavens in their eyes!

Do tell, who gave them the courage to achieve Foundation Establishment without telling the heavens?

What were they trying to do? Were they trying to fight for the heavens’ position?

Unfilial son, a classic unfilial son! They should be killed for their deviousness!

The heavens were just old, not dead!

As long as the heavens weren’t dead, the rest could only be crown princes!

The reckless behavior of achieving Foundation Establishment without telling the heavens was something Lu Yuan, a filial son of the heavens, would not do.

In Lu Yuan’s residence was a huge cauldron filled with sandalwood incense.

After Lu Yuan took a bath and changed his clothes, he respectfully went to the cauldron and offered three incense sticks.

As he inserted the joss sticks into the cauldron, he muttered, “Heavens above, Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator Lu Yuan is here to apply for Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens.”

“All the cultivators in the world think that cultivation is a heaven-defying act, but I don’t think so. I feel that the essence of cultivation lies in following the natural order of the world and the natural way of cultivation. Blindly forcing things will only bring about more trouble. I know the heavens are heartbroken because of these unfilial children, but I’m different from them. I’m very sensible.”

“Today, I’ll burn three joss sticks. If the heavens don’t want me to achieve Foundation Establishment today, the joss sticks will burn to be one long and two short. If not, the heavens will allow me to break through today. If the heavens agree for me to achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens today, then no matter what the result is, I will not hold a grudge against the heavens. Even if I fail to build a heavenly Foundation, it’s my fate. If I succeed, it’s thanks to the heavens’ mercy.”

“I hope that the heavens will take into account my filial piety and bless me to successfully achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens today.”

After saying that, Lu Yuan began to wait respectfully.

A moment later, the three incense sticks burned all the way, as expected. There were no signs of the incense sticks being one long and two short.

Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan was overjoyed.

The timing, location, and people were all just right!

Today was the day he would achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens!

[Ding! The special effect, Destined Time, has been activated. Luck value doubled…]

Lu Yuan held the 5000-year-old black tortoiseshell and started to circulate the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique (Foundation Establishment chapter).

In the next second, the power of water and metal on the tortoiseshell turned into light spots and fused into Lu Yuan’s body.

After these light spots entered Lu Yuan’s body, they quickly merged with his spiritual energy.

Soon after, the spiritual energy followed his meridians and arrived at the spiritual roots in his suprapubic region.

Not long after, the metal and water spiritual roots of the six spiritual roots started to change.

Under the nourishment of the black tortoise’s power, fine patterns began to appear on the surface of the metal and water spiritual roots.

At the same time, an illusionary image of an ancient black tortoise appeared behind Lu Yuan.

The aura he exuded also began to become more solid and profound…

Lu Yuan was unaware of all this.

This was because his mind had already wandered into the great void, and his consciousness was dazed.

It felt like he was in a deep sleep that was comfortable and warm.

It was almost at the same time that Lu Yuan had started his Foundation Establishment that a golden cloud started to gather on his mountain peak.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan was prepared.

In the process of choosing a residence, Lu Yuan had requested the help of a senior brother in advance to set up many arrays on the mountain peak.

As a result, the outside world did not notice the abnormality here at all.

In fact, when setting up the arrays, the senior brother who did so was very puzzled. He could not understand why Lu Yuan wanted to set up so many arrays here.

One must know that this was the core area of the Qingyun Sect, where ordinary enemies could not come.

If the enemy managed to arrive here one day, it also meant that the Qingyun Sect was not far from being destroyed.

By then, there would be no point in setting up so many arrays.

Therefore, almost no disciple would set up so many arrays around their residences in the sect.

However, Lu Yuan naturally had an explanation for that senior brother’s doubts.

His excuse was that the main reason why he had set up so many arrays around his residence was not to guard against enemies outside the sect, but against the celestial birds and fierce beasts raised by the many senior brothers and sisters in the sect.

Lu Yuan’s original words were that although the chances of a cultivator being solo-killed by a domesticated celestial bird were very small, it was definitely not impossible.

If the mount of a senior brother or sister suddenly went berserk and came to his residence to kill him, wouldn’t that simply be unjust?

When the senior brother who had set up the array heard this, he was dumbfounded.

Good Lord, others take one step and think ten steps ahead. Lu Yuan, on the other hand, thought a thousand steps ahead, huh?

To think he had even considered the possibility of such an outrageous matter as being killed by a berserk celestial bird. Was he delusional?

Where did he think he was, a devilish sect?

The senior brothers and sisters raised celestial birds, not bloodthirsty fierce beasts!

That being said, that senior brother still helped Lu Yuan to set up a bunch of arrays around the mountain peak.

After all, Lu Yuan had offered a pile of cultivation pills to get him to help.

Since he had gained remuneration, he would complete his junior brother’s request. The senior brother couldn’t care less who Lu Yuan was defending against with these arrays.

In fact, it was all because Lu Yuan did not know how to set up arrays yet. Otherwise, he would have set up hundreds of arrays here.

After all, he would be staying in this direct disciple residence for a long time.

Naturally, he would do whatever would increase his safety.

Lu Yuan’s steady actions played a role in this breakthrough.

Without these arrays, the auspicious cloud would have long been noticed.

After the auspicious cloud appeared, it began to descend slowly, passing through the mountain walls and entering Lu Yuan’s body.

Thump!

As the auspicious cloud and Lu Yuan merged, an invisible sound of the heavens rang out in the Qingyun Sect.

In the depths of the Qingyun Sect, where the patriarch was in secluded cultivation, the Nascent Soul Stage patriarch’s eyes suddenly flew open.

“The sound of the heavens, the descent of the heavens?”

The Nascent Soul stage patriarch who sensed this suddenly disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of the sect leader, Mu Chen.

“Patriarch Qing Hong?!”

Looking at Patriarch Qing Hong in front of him, Mu Chen was stunned.

Then, he hurriedly bowed, “Mu Chen, the 32nd leader of the Qingyun Sect, pays his respects to the patriarch.”

“Forget it, forget it. Xiao Mu, I didn’t come out today to talk about those useless things. Did you hear the sound of the heavens just now?”

“The sound of the heavens?”

Seeing Mu Chen’s expression, the patriarch knew that the other party had not perceived, or rather, could not perceive the sound of the heavens.

Generally speaking, when the sound of the heavens appeared, it would be accompanied by an auspicious sign of the heavens.

However, the Nascent Soul Stage patriarch, Qing Hong, had just scanned the entire Qingyun Sect with his spiritual sense, but he did not find any auspicious signs.

Either the auspicious sign had only appeared for a very short time, or it didn’t appear in the Qingyun Sect.

On top of that, Qing Hong was unsure of the reason for the appearance of the sound of the heavens this time.

This was because many situations would lead to the sound of the heavens.

One was when a peerless treasure appeared, and the heavens would carry out a baptism.

Another was when a cultivator broke through and was blessed by the heavens.

There were also cases where someone gained enlightenment and the heavens responded.

Although there were many reasons, without exception, every time the sound of the heavens appeared, there would be a huge change.

Either a peerless genius or an extremely precious innate spiritual item had appeared.

Magic instruments, magic items, spiritual items, true magic items …

The so-called spirit item was something that even Nascent Soul Stage cultivators yearned for.

When he thought of this, Qing Hong immediately gave an order to Mu Chen.

“Xiao Mu, immediately send the disciples out and have them search the area within a thousand miles of our sect. See if there are any unusual signs. If there is, come back and tell me immediately.”

“As you wish, patriarch.”

Qing Hong disappeared after making the arrangements.

“Disciple Mu Chen will see you off, patriarch.”

Just as the entire Qingyun Sect was stirred up by the sudden sound of the heavens, the instigator, Lu Yuan, knew nothing about this.

At this moment, he had reached the critical stage of Foundation Establishment.

As the golden cloud entered his body, a golden pattern appeared on Lu Yuan’s metal and water spiritual roots.

After a while, two spiritual roots that were shimmering with golden light appeared in Lu Yuan’s suprapubic region.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for achieving Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens and receiving the heavens’ blessing. Your water and metal spiritual roots have received special bonuses.]

[Water Spiritual Root (Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens)]

[Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique (Foundation Establishment chapter): Able to display “One Guard · Tortoiseshell Power” that will increase your strength and defense.]

Not long after these system notifications appeared, Lu Yuan finally woke up.

Feeling the immense power in his body, he could not contain his excitement.

Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens… Success!

However, Lu Yuan’s happiness did not last long, because he saw a message that made his heart stop.

[Current Luck Value: 10 points ]

Looking at his depleted luck value, Lu Yuan was dumbfounded.

Where was his luck value? Where was the huge pile of luck value he had there?

Why did they just disappear?!

At this moment, Lu Yuan finally noticed the latest system notification.

[Ding! As the host has triggered the special effect, heavens’ blessing, during the process of Foundation Establishment, the current luck value has returned to the lowest point…]

Damn it, this was clearly his first time achieving Foundation Establishment, as well as his first time receiving the heavens’ blessing.

These two delightful things had perfectly overlapped, and he should’ve been as happy as a dream come true, but why had things turned out like this?

Sob… Luck value… His luck value!
