My Golden Core is a Star, do you call this cultivating?

Chapter 14: Diligent Qi Yuan

A trace of gentleness flashed in the depths of Jin Li's eyes. "He is my friend."

She added, "I'm not very clear about his identity either."

The few Imperial Guards present were all moved.

Who exactly is this extraordinary person?
...

"I didn't expect myself to be so diligent."

"It seems that the good quality of hard work in our nation is truly ingrained in my genes."

Qi Yuan stretched his body and felt very happy.

Today, even before the puppet cat called, he had already gotten up.

"Sure enough, not playing games, going to bed early and getting up early, only then can you enjoy such a beautiful morning."

At this moment, Jiang Lingsu's voice came, "Senior Brother, we have finished our morning practice."

Hearing this, Qi Yuan felt a bit embarrassed.

Jiang Lingsu continued, "However, compared to the previous days, Senior Brother, you have made progress.

If you can follow what you just said, and not play those decadent games anymore, the future is promising."

"Not playing games is impossible." Qi Yuan decisively rejected.

"Senior Brother, didn't you say you would take care of me in the future?" Jiang Lingsu smiled, "If you don't practice well, how can you take care of me?

Don't let it be that after causing trouble, you need your junior sister to take care of you."

"You taking care of me is also not bad." Qi Yuan said, "My favorite saying is, 'If one gains wealth, do not forget old friends.'"

Jiang Lingsu rolled her eyes at Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan thought of something and took out the jade slip of the cultivation technique. "Junior Sister, here's your jade slip back. Thank you."

Jiang Lingsu took the jade slip, with a smile on her lips. "Senior Brother, have you created your own cultivation technique?"

"Naturally." Qi Yuan said confidently, "But it's not yet perfect, it can only be cultivated to the peak of the Qi Refining stage. I need to extend it to the Foundation Establishment stage."

Hearing this, Jiang Lingsu was stunned for a moment, then laughed even more joyfully, "Only two days and Senior Brother has created a cultivation technique, truly a prodigious talent!"

She spoke insincerely.

Because, this is impossible.

Unless, instead of creating a cultivation technique, it's more like modifying someone else's technique and claiming it as his own.

Of course, that's still very impressive.

"Would you like to switch to practicing the technique I created?" Qi Yuan said seriously, "The techniques you are practicing have too many issues."

They would become the nourishment for some entity.

Naturally, Qi Yuan wouldn't practice such techniques.

"Thank you for your kind offer, Senior Brother, but there's no need."

Jiang Lingsu declined.

The technique she practiced was a Heaven-level technique, and there was no way she would switch to another.

"Senior Brother, looking at your attire, are you planning to go down the mountain?"

"Yes." Qi Yuan nodded, "I plan to create the Foundation Establishment part of the technique, but unfortunately, I don't understand much about Foundation Establishment, especially its grades, so I plan to go down the mountain and listen to some lectures on Foundation Establishment."

Hearing this, Jiang Lingsu became even more certain that what Senior Brother said before were all jokes.

Not understanding much about Foundation Establishment and yet planning to create a cultivation technique.

Can such a technique really be practiced?

Before leaving, Jiang Lingsu kindly reminded, "Senior Brother, cultivation techniques are the foundation of a cultivator, don't modify them lightly."
...

Half an hour later.

Qi Yuan sat in the lecture hall.

He came early and found a good seat.

Later, more and more disciples came in, and when they saw Qi Yuan, they all showed puzzled expressions.

They lowered their voices and whispered, "He's wearing a purple robe, a true disciple, how come he's here for the lecture?"

"This is not an ordinary purple robe, look at the collar, there are nine gold lines, he is not an ordinary true disciple, but a peak chief disciple!"

"What?"

The people here looked at Qi Yuan with eyes full of awe and puzzlement.

After all, this kind of lecture usually only had outer disciples and servant disciples attending, rarely inner disciples, let alone true disciples.

In the Divine Light Sect, disciples were divided into true disciples, formal disciples, and servant disciples.

Servant disciples had the lowest status, they could cultivate but had to do chores.

Formal disciples were divided into inner and outer disciples, both formally joining a peak.

When an inner disciple formally took a master from among the elders, they would become a true disciple.

There were also differences among true disciples, mainly reflected in the strength of their master.

A peak chief disciple was truly a disciple among disciples, not even ordinary elders dared to offend them.

Such a chief disciple was personally taught by the peak master, why would they come to such a lecture?
"He is the chief disciple of the Seven Colors Peak, Qi Yuan!"

"It's really him, as expected of the chief disciple, he's so handsome!"

These servant disciples and formal disciples, upon learning Qi Yuan's identity, had various expressions, some with envy, awe, and also jealousy.

"Why did he come here?"

"It's said that he angered the peak master of the Seven Colors Peak, so much that the peak master closed the hall doors in anger. By the way, I only told you this, don't spread it around."

"Daring to offend the peak master, he's really bold!"

"I heard that other true disciples call Qi Yuan a rebel who defies and deceives his master!"

The crowd discussed animatedly, and there were quite a few good-looking female disciples who cast flirtatious glances at Qi Yuan.

However, given Qi Yuan's behavior of defying his master, they didn't dare to be too overt, to avoid getting into trouble.

Qi Yuan sat in his seat, feeling a bit emotional. "Indeed, handsome men are the focus no matter where they go."

About half a stick of incense later, the lecturer finally arrived.

It was an old man who seemed to have one foot in the grave.

He saw Qi Yuan, was slightly stunned, then a look of pride flashed in his eyes.

He thought, it must be because his lectures were so good that even a chief disciple came to listen.

He decided that this time, he would perform at two hundred percent capacity, make the lecture profound and grand, and definitely impress Qi Yuan.

In other words, he intended to be pretentious.

"My name is Xu Renshan. Today, I will teach you about the key points of Foundation Establishment."

After Xu Renshan spoke, the disciples below became serious.

Although their cultivation was still far from Foundation Establishment, it was important to learn about it in advance.

"Above Qi Refining is Foundation Establishment. Becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator qualifies one to be a steward in our Divine Light Sect, enjoying offerings.

However, Foundation Establishment is extremely difficult, blocking many seekers of the Dao." Xu Renshan spoke with a nostalgic look in his eyes.

Back then, he almost couldn't achieve Foundation Establishment.

"Foundation Establishment also varies in quality.

You should know that Foundation Establishment requires Foundation Establishment materials, using them as the foundation to build one's foundation.

The higher the grade of the Foundation Establishment material, the better the effect of Foundation Establishment." Xu Renshan spoke eloquently.

Immediately, a disciple below chimed in, "I know, Foundation Establishment materials are divided into superior, medium, and inferior grades, with superior being the best and inferior the worst."

Xu Renshan nodded in satisfaction. "The higher the grade of the Foundation Establishment material, the better the Foundation Establishment effect.

You know the grades of Foundation Establishment materials, but probably few of you know that Foundation Establishment itself also has grades."

Upon hearing this, many people in the audience focused even more.

This was indeed something they didn't know.

Xu Renshan glanced at Qi Yuan's seat, seeing Qi Yuan also listening attentively, he felt very proud.

"Foundation Establishment is divided into Mortal Foundation, Spirit Foundation, Earth Vein Foundation, and Immortal Foundation.

Generally, inferior Foundation Establishment materials result in Mortal Foundation. I am a Mortal Foundation cultivator, having wasted my life, with no hope of forming a Yuan Dan, unfortunately.

Medium Foundation Establishment materials result in Spirit Foundation, though Earth Vein Foundation is also possible.

Superior Foundation Establishment materials correspond to Earth Vein Foundation.

It's said that above superior Foundation Establishment materials, there are even higher-grade materials that can result in Immortal Foundation!

Immortal Foundation signifies the potential to become a true immortal."

Everyone in the audience breathed rapidly; who doesn't want to become a true immortal?
"Of course, each level of Foundation Establishment also has sub-levels."

Qi Yuan frowned and suddenly asked, "May I ask, teacher, is Immortal Foundation the best Foundation Establishment?"

Hearing the chief disciple of Seven Colors Peak asking him a question, Xu Renshan's beard almost lifted in pride.

"No, above Immortal Foundation, there is the legendary Heavenly Dao Foundation, which is the strongest Foundation Establishment."

"Then, teacher, what is Heavenly Dao Foundation?" Qi Yuan asked earnestly.

Xu Renshan was stunned by this.

He, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, knew nothing about Heavenly Dao Foundation.

But he still braced himself and said, "The so-called Heavenly Dao Foundation is profound and mysterious. I only have a few guesses; listen to them but don't take them seriously."

After saying this, Xu Renshan breathed a sigh of relief.

He started to make things up.

Anyway, he had already said it was just his guess, so it shouldn't be taken seriously.

Moreover, this kind of thing, the disciples here would never use in their lifetime.

He could make things up, and no one would expose him.

Hearing this, Qi Yuan immediately focused all his attention.

He wanted to know, what exactly was Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.
