Free Web NovelChapter 291: Chapter 289: Perfect Dao Platform Foundation Establishment
Seated cross-legged upon the surface of the golden sea of Spiritual Power, Jiang Jichen’s entire body glowed with a dreamlike, seven-colored radiance.
And yet, the vast golden sea of Spiritual Power had only receded by one percent from the tempering of Jiang Jichen’s Seven-Colored Spirit Body!
This was an entire ocean of golden Spiritual Power!
Jiang Jichen was only tempering his Seven-Colored Spirit Body at the Innate Tenth Realm, yet it had already consumed such an immense amount of golden Ancient Spiritual Power.
’What about the realms to come?’
It was impossible to imagine, and he didn’t dare to.
Jiang Jichen retracted his Seven-colored Spiritual Power, sensing his own newfound strength. free𝑤ebnovel.com
’A perfect Seven-Colored Spirit Body, and a perfect Seven-Colored Soul... This is without a doubt the Strongest Invincible Realm at the Innate Level!’
Within this realm, he could defeat any opponent across the heavens, the earth, the Six Paths, and all the Myriads of Worlds. He was truly invincible.
But his enemies... Their realms touched the heavens, they looked down upon the Six Paths, and their might shook the Ten Thousand Worlds. They possessed supreme power, strong beyond all measure.
And he had only just begun.
’The road ahead is long, but my resolve will never waver. I will walk this path without rest, and one day, I will be able to sweep across the world, unrivaled.’
Jiang Jichen was calm. He began the next step: Divine Fusion!
Although the soul resides within the body, it is merely a tenant, not truly fused with it.
Only when the soul is truly fused with the Spirit Body can one achieve perfect control, where a mere thought can give rise to spirit or cause it to disperse.
The control over one’s Spirit Body would reach a state of perfect, seamless integration.
For instance, previously, his physical actions lagged far behind the speed of his Divine Thought.
But if he could unify his spirit and soul, he could achieve a preliminary synchronization between his Spirit Body and his Divine Thought.
And with the unification of spirit and soul comes the birth of the Dao Platform. This was the moment a Dao Platform could be condensed in the center of his Qi Sea.
The so-called Dao Platform was, in essence, formed by further tempering liquefied Spiritual Power, transforming it from a liquid to a solid state.
Divine Fusion was an excruciatingly painful and incredibly complex process. It required imprinting his Divine Thought onto every single part of his Spirit Body.
But this wouldn’t deter Jiang Jichen.
Having endured countless life-threatening trials, his will was already incomparably strong.
At that moment, seven-colored Soul Power flowed throughout Jiang Jichen’s body, continuously forming into fine needles that branded and pierced into his flesh.
With his soul feeling as if pierced by needles and his flesh as if gnawed by ants, it was an unimaginably painful process.
But Jiang Jichen remained calm, slowly fusing his soul with his body.
「A month passed in the blink of an eye.」
On this day, the golden sea of Spiritual Power, which had been calm for a month, suddenly began to churn violently, its waves crashing as if trying to escape.
But a suction force suddenly erupted from Jiang Jichen, ten times greater than the one from when he had tempered his Seven-colored Spiritual Power.
The golden waves rolling into the distance immediately reversed course, drawn back and devoured where Jiang Jichen sat.
This was because Jiang Jichen had successfully branded his soul. He had unified spirit and soul, and a Dao Platform had begun to form within his Qi Sea.
The transformation from liquefied Spiritual Power to crystallized Spiritual Power was another qualitative leap, a complete metamorphosis.
The amount of Spiritual Power it required was immense.
What’s more, Jiang Jichen was undergoing a Perfect Foundation Establishment.
First, the liquefied Spiritual Power within his Qi Sea and Spirit Veins underwent countless refinements by the Source Character Qi Condensing Technique, finally crystallizing at the center of his Qi Sea.
However, all of the Seven-Colored Spirit Liquid in Jiang Jichen’s body only managed to condense into a Dao Platform the size of his little fingernail. He once again became a shriveled husk, as if every last drop of his Spiritual Qi had been drained away.
Only the center of his Qi Sea glowed with a dazzling, seven-colored light, where the Dao Platform was still being condensed.
Fortunately, he was in a golden sea of Spiritual Power; otherwise, his physical body would have disintegrated into ash the very next moment.
His body, on the verge of collapse, was immediately replenished by an immense influx of golden Ancient Spiritual Power, temporarily staving off destruction.
But this state would have to be maintained for a very, very long time. Only after the Dao Platform was completely formed would his physical body slowly recover.
「Another month passed, and the surface of the golden sea of Spiritual Power finally calmed.」
By this time, the entire golden sea of Spiritual Power had diminished by one-fifth!
Jiang Jichen’s body was no longer cracked and dry. Instead, it was now translucent and glossy, glowing with the radiance of Seven-colored Spiritual Patterns.
BUZZ!
The void trembled. His Dao Platform was complete.
It was seven-colored, as translucent as jade, like a true piece of Seven-Colored Glazed Jade—so beautiful it seemed unreal.
His entire Qi Sea was now filled with a drifting Seven-Colored Spiritual Mist, within which the Dao Platform bobbed endlessly. freēwēbnovel.com
Logically, the formation of the Dao Platform wasn’t over yet. There was still one final step.
Foundation Establishment Summoning Thunder!
However, this step did not occur for Jiang Jichen.
Perhaps because this world was too mysterious, the Thunder Tribulation was not sensed and thus did not appear.
Therefore, the tribulation for this Foundation Establishment Summoning Thunder would accumulate and be added to his next major breakthrough.
’So I guess,’ Jiang Jichen speculated.
’For a heaven-defying breakthrough like mine, the resulting Thunder Tribulation will be anything but ordinary. I’m afraid it will produce the most terrifying phenomenon in ages.’
’If a tribulation like that accumulates twice before finally erupting...’ Even Jiang Jichen himself didn’t dare imagine how terrifying that would be.
But that was a matter for the future. Jiang Jichen didn’t dwell on it.
With that, Jiang Jichen possessed a two-layered Seven-Colored Dao Platform. He was in the Dao Platform Foundation Establishment Middle Realm, the ultimate Perfect Foundation Establishment!
Powerful!
Terrifying!
He felt he could shatter heaven and earth with a single punch!
...
This was what it felt like for Jiang Jichen to step into the Foundation Establishment Realm.
The feeling of surging power, the sensation of spirit manifesting from mere thought—it made him crave... a battle!
At this moment, he was truly qualified to walk the path of immortality.
At this moment, he feared no Foundation Establishment Cultivator and could even face some Spirit Infant Cultivators.
For instance, if he encountered that Guo Family elder at the Spirit Infant Early Stage again, Jiang Jichen was confident he could... kill him, even if it meant fighting to the death!
By advancing without fear, he had finally achieved this transformation.
Jiang Jichen stood up and exhaled. His Spiritual Power receded deep within him, his aura retracted, and his mind... had already moved past the excitement of the breakthrough.
The path ahead was long, so he wouldn’t allow himself to celebrate a single breakthrough for too long.
Glancing at the Golden Spirit Sea, of which four-fifths still remained, Jiang Jichen took out a jade bowl.
The bowl was named Sea-Emcompassing, a name that carried the ambition of holding all the Spirit Seas in the world.
It contained a world of its own and was anything but ordinary. Grandma Turtle had given it to him before she entered her slumber of Annihilation.
Without hesitation, Jiang Jichen raised the Sea-Emcompassing Jade Bowl and aimed it at the Golden Spirit Sea.
BOOM!
The entire Spirit Sea was easily drawn in, and yet it only filled one-tenth of the Sea-Emcompassing Jade Bowl!
"What a treasure!"
Jiang Jichen felt deeply that Grandma Turtle was a thousand times more generous than Master Turtle.
Having lived for countless ages, who knew how many treasures the two Jade Turtles held within them. Any item they produced would surely be at the Saint Level.
For instance, Jiang Jichen had seen Grandma Turtle casually pull this very Sea-Emcompassing Jade Bowl from within her body.
After collecting the golden sea of Spiritual Power, Jiang Jichen returned to Little Treasure Island.
He walked to the altar, his gaze fixed on the Stone Coffin. He hesitated. ’Should I open it?’
’What I’ve been searching for, the very thing that drew me here, is inside this Stone Coffin.’
’Now that I’m here, how can I possibly pass this up?’
Finally, a resolute look appeared in Jiang Jichen’s eyes.
Then, he reached out and pushed open the Stone Coffin.
