Chapter 83: Perfect Foundation

Xiao Lan trembled as she tried to remember the contents of the Cultivation Manual she had gotten from Li Xue; however, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't.

'Guess it's because I'm still weak.'

Xiao Lan wasn't bothered by that because she knew it only meant that the technique surpassed anything she had witnessed in her past life. It was truly a marvelous technique that perfectly suited her and her Ancestral Phoenix Flames.

Although she wouldn't be able to use them anytime soon, she was sure they would be much stronger when she would unleash them.

In a happy mood, she began to circulate the mist of Qi inside her body. It was like guiding a gust of wind, which could break at any moment, and she had to make sure it didn't. And that's what she did.

She carefully circulated the Qi Mist inside her body according to her Cultivation Manual, and finally, when she sensed that she had covered everything, she made the Qi Mist settle in various parts of her body.

It was a known fact that Body Strengthening Realm Cultivators could not store Qi and could only rely on their bodies to grow stronger.

Xiao Lan narrowed her closed eyes as she contemplated something. Then, an excited grin appeared on her face. She had finally attained the First-Rank of Body Strengthening Realm and had stepped onto the path of cultivation. However, she wasn't satisfied with that.

There was a simple fact about Awakening, and it was that the Foundation created by it would be the best. So, if a person directly achieved the Fifth-Rank Body Strengthening Realm after Awakening, then they would have a far more stable foundation than even those who have spent years making their Foundation stable. That person would have five ranks of the Body Strengthening Realm perfectly stable and have the perfect Foundation for them.

Of course, not everyone could do it. Not to mention the harsh requirement of it, a person simply wouldn't be able to handle the load of awakening directly to Qi Refining Realm because Awakening lasts only for a short time after one attains First-Rank of Body Strengthening Realm in which they would try their best to get as perfect Foundation as they could.

Because of this, if a person wanted to ascend to the Qi Refining Realm directly, they would have to cross all Nine Ranks of the Body Strengthening Realm in that short period of time. And the only way to do that was to absorb the Qi from nine different parts of the body and make Nine Separate Qi Clouds inside them. Then, they would have to make sure that the nine Qi clouds don't get mixed up and circulate all nine of them.

All these things made the task practically impossible. No one could sustain that kind of pressure inside their body, not even Xiao Lan. However, she had something inside her that made her body completely safe and protected it from the heavy pressure brought down by the nine Qi clouds. Of course, if the Qi wasn't so obedient, things would have been different.

Xiao Lan grew more excited then ever to be the first one to achieve the Perfect Foundation. With this Foundation, her future would be limitless and as long as she practiced hard, even reaching the Top of Divine Realm was very easy for her. That was the power of perfect Foundation.

'No! I need to focus otherwise everything will be waste. I still have Master's seeds inside me and they'll protect me, hehe. I'll burrow more from him later. Ahem! Concentrate.'

Scolding herself, Xiao Lan concentrated inside her body where nine different Qi clouds were hovering. It was very hard to control them all simultaneously and the pressure was immense and if she didn't have Shen Yu's seeds inside her, her body would have exploded from inside out.

Once again, thanking Shen Yu in her heart, she began the process of ascending to Qi Refining Realm.
