Chapter 120 External Foundation Building Method
Jiang Chen released his divine sense to investigate the situation inside the small cauldron.
In an instant, a surge of information flooded into my consciousness.
Jiang Chen sat cross-legged on the spot, receiving this information.
After a long while, he opened his eyes, his face full of surprise.
"What a brilliant inheritance. No wonder those mad dogs from the Black Stone Society came looking for trouble."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun's face was also full of surprise: "You're quite something, kid. I've had this thing for nearly ten years and have examined it countless times."
But when my divine sense entered the jade cauldron, it was like a clay ox sinking into the sea—there was no response whatsoever.
"You'll receive the inheritance within as soon as you get started."
After hearing his grandfather's words, Jiang Chen already had a guess in his mind.
"It seems that the inheritance within this jade cauldron is truly not something that just anyone can obtain."
Only those with the lineage of the Creation Sect can uncover the secrets within this jade cauldron.
The Black Stone Society, a secret organization formed recently by independent cultivators, is similar to a band of mountain bandits.
Even if you obtain this jade cauldron, you will not be able to uncover its secrets.
Thinking of this, he immediately said, "Grandpa, the inheritance here is too profound."
Holding this jade cauldron in our hands will bring countless troubles.
"Or, I could hand this over to my master; he might be able to get some good stuff in return."
Jiang Yun waved his hand dismissively: "Since I gave it to you, it's yours."
"At my age, with grave soil reaching my neck, I don't have that many thoughts."
"But can you trust your master? What if he gets the inheritance and then kills you to silence you?"
Jiang Chen naturally trusted Master Tiejian; a man as unyielding as him wouldn't do such a thing.
"Grandpa, don't worry. My master is Master Tiejian. You should have heard of his name."
Given his character, he would never do such a thing.
Moreover, this inheritance is effective only for Foundation Establishment cultivators; its effect on Core Formation cultivators is negligible.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun's face remained full of worry.
"You are truly blessed to have been able to become a disciple of Master Iron Sword."
"But Master Tiejian is selfless and will surely share anything good he obtains. If he can be trusted, can we trust the others?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen felt a chill in his heart: "This secret technique is for assisting in Foundation Establishment. Once Iron Sword Master obtains it, he will definitely pass it on to his disciples. It is impossible to keep it a secret."
Currently, within the Golden Cauldron Sect, the direct lineage faction remains stronger. If this news leaks out, the direct lineage faction might act rashly.
He nodded repeatedly: "Grandpa is right. I'll hide this for now and take it out when the time is right."
Then he asked, "Grandpa, you've suffered a lot over the years, have you suffered any hidden injuries?"
"My grandson can now draw second-grade initial-level talismans and refine second-grade initial-level pills, and he is not short of spirit stones."
"If you have any lingering injuries, I'll go buy some healing pills."
Jiang Yun's face was full of gratified smiles: "My grandson has grown up and knows how to be filial to his grandfather."
Don't worry, your grandpa is a demon hunter who crawled out of piles of corpses.
Those mad dogs chasing me only left me with some minor injuries.
"These old bones of mine have reached the end of my cultivation journey. You should save up more spirit stones; after you reach Foundation Establishment, there will be even more places where you'll need them."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen felt relieved and arranged for his grandfather to stay in the courtyard.
Afterwards, give Baiyisi a heads-up and let Grandpa stay here as the butler; they won't refuse to give us face.
After all, Jiang Yun's cultivation level was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, and he could barely draw a first-grade high-level talisman, so its value was not high.
After settling his grandfather in, Jiang Chen began to study the inheritance within the small cauldron in the training room.
The cauldron contains a legacy called the "External Material Foundation Building Method." For cultivators to establish their foundation, in addition to foundation-building pills and other spiritual items, the most important thing is to comprehend its true meaning.
Without true understanding, even if one eats Foundation Establishment Pills like food, one still cannot establish a foundation.
The difficulty in comprehending the true meaning is very high. Apart from comprehending the visualization diagrams and the true meaning of the treasure land, one can only rely on honing a skill.
It takes too long and has an extremely low success rate.
This external foundation-building method involves extracting the supernatural power from a treasure and condensing it into a seed of true meaning using a secret technique.
A Qi Refining cultivator can refine the Seed of True Meaning and continuously comprehend it, allowing the Seed of True Meaning to grow into a complete True Meaning.
Understanding the true meaning through this method is much faster than comprehending a visual diagram.
If that's all there is to it, it's not particularly brilliant.
Most importantly, those who comprehend the true meaning through the seed of true meaning can borrow a trace of the power of the treasure.
The Creation Sect of yesteryear did just that, using the power of its sect's most treasured heirloom, the Creation Immortal Cauldron, to condense the seed of true meaning.
Disciples who comprehend the true meaning through this can draw upon a trace of the power of the Creation Cauldron when engaging in combat.
According to Zhang Yaoling, the Creation Cauldron was left behind by an immortal, and its level is even higher than that of the Nascent Soul stage.
Even if it's just borrowing a trace of power, it can become invincible among those of the same level.
The extent to which the cultivator can benefit depends on the compatibility between the cultivator and the Creation Cauldron.
Furthermore, cultivators who establish their foundation using the power of the Creation Cauldron will have their entire cultivation integrated into the Creation Cauldron after death.
Because these cultivators' cultivation paths are extremely compatible with the Creation Immortal Cauldron, their power, when integrated into the Creation Immortal Cauldron, can be transformed into the Creation Immortal Cauldron's essence.
As time goes by, the power of the Creation Cauldron grows stronger and stronger.
Besides aiding in foundation building, this secret technique can also be used to condense seeds of divine power.
Foundation Establishment cultivators need to begin cultivating supernatural abilities, but the level of the supernatural abilities they cultivate is too low, so they are called supernatural ability seeds.
To condense the seed of supernatural power, one must also comprehend its true meaning.
With this secret technique, not only is breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm much easier, but even condensing the seed of divine power after Foundation Establishment will be much less difficult.
This secret technique doesn't require high-quality treasures; treasures at the Core Formation level will suffice.
As long as you have a third-grade magic weapon or magic treasure, you can cultivate a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators within a few decades.
With a large number of Foundation Establishment cultivators, even if you just force it, you can still produce a batch of Core Formation cultivators.
For a faction, this secret technique is extremely valuable.
After sorting through all the inheritance within the jade cauldron, Jiang Chen felt a little uneasy.
"Although this Foundation Building Technique using external objects was created by the Creation Sect, it doesn't say that it can only be performed using the Creation Immortal Cauldron."
Zhang Yaoling once said that my Dream Butterfly Painting technique is even above the Creation Cauldron.
"Although I have grasped the true meaning of the Dream Butterfly, it is also very closely related to the Dream Butterfly painting."
If I were to extract the power of the Dream Butterfly Diagram, condense a seed of true meaning, and integrate it into my true meaning.
Once the two are fully integrated, wouldn't I be able to directly draw upon a sliver of the Dream Butterfly Diagram's power?
The transmission also states that if one has already grasped the true meaning, one can integrate the seed of true meaning, as long as the two do not conflict and can merge with each other.
Perhaps I can use this secret technique to enhance my control over the Dream Butterfly Diagram.
Of course, the method of using treasures to condense the seed of true meaning is somewhat like offering oneself as a sacrifice to the treasure.
Jiang Chen didn't care about this at all: "Anyway, while I'm alive, the treasure won't steal my power in return."
As for what happens after death, why bother with all that?
"I'm still in a dream simulation of the future, which is a good opportunity to test whether this secret technique is reliable."
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen immediately immersed his consciousness in his sea of consciousness.
His soul actively entered the Dream Butterfly Diagram, causing his true essence to roam wildly within it and continuously absorb its power.
