‘Work is tiring!’

However, Zeng Jing had 4.6 billion years of cultivation, and his entire body had endless power, so he was actually not very tired. After burying all the corpses with the two girls, he built new graves. Then, he worshiped his dead fellow disciples and followed them to shout a few slogans like “Revive the Sect, who else can it be but me?” He repaired three more houses for the three of them, cleaned them, carried water, and cooked…

It felt quite fulfilling after the hard work.

As the sun set, he dragged his not-so-tired body back to the tattered front hall. Only then did he see the Sect Master, Loli Yuan Yingjie, meditating on a throne in the middle of the hall. Bai Yan was by her side, acting like a guardian.

When Zeng Jing walked to the entrance of the hall, the Loli Sect Master opened her eyes and sighed. “No, I can’t cultivate. As soon as I close my eyes, my mind is filled with images of Master, Senior Brothers, and Senior Sisters lying dead on the ground. My mental state is in chaos and I don’t dare to forcefully cultivate.”

Bai Yan also sighed at the side. “Me too.”

“I wonder how long it will take for us to walk out of this state of mind.” The Loli Sect Master let out another long sigh. Then, she and Bai Yan locked their gazes on Zeng Jing.

Zeng Jing pointed at his nose. “What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly glaring at me?”

The Loli Sect Master said, “We are unable to cultivate, so we might as well teach you.”

Zeng Jing smiled and said, “Very good. Are you going to teach me the Sword Control Art or the Myriad Sword Art?”

The two women looked at Zeng Jing as if they were looking at an idiot. “You haven’t even built up your Foundation Establishment yet you want to learn the Sword Control Art and the Myriad Sword Art from the get-go? Are you kidding me?”

Zeng Jing said, “Well! If people don’t have dreams, what’s the difference between them and salted fish?”

The two women were speechless.

After a few seconds, Bai Yan sighed and said, “I’ll teach you how to build your Foundation Establishment first. The so-called Foundation Establishment is to build a good foundation for cultivation. This is the first stage of cultivation. Only by building a good foundation can you cultivate smoothly in the future.”

Zeng Jing asked, “What should I do?”

Bai Yan said, “Foundation Establishment is divided into two stages. The first stage is to abolish sickness. When the body reaches absolute health, one can have a very good cultivation foundation. The second stage is to open the conception and governor vessels, filling the meridians and Qi acupoints with essence, qi, and spirit. According to the Pill Scripture, when the energy is full, the conception and governor vessels will be opened. At that time, the Foundation Establishment will be completed.”

Zeng Jing shook his head blankly. “Senior Sister Bai, I still don’t know how to build my foundation after hearing your story.”

Bai Yan was speechless.

The Sect Leader, Loli, couldn’t help sweating. “Senior Sister Bai, this person’s level of comprehension seems to be even lower than yours. I understood it as soon as I heard it. You also understood after thinking for a while, but this guy doesn’t seem to understand at all.”

Bai Yan said, “This is very awkward. My comprehension is already publicly acknowledged to be poor. Master said that it’s difficult for me to become immortal. And this outer sect junior brother’s comprehension is even worse. It’s hard to say if he can even form his core, not to mention becoming an immortal in the future.”

Zeng Jing raised his hand. “I protest! You’re the ones who don’t know what you’re talking about. It’s not that my comprehension is poor. I’m not bragging, but I scored full marks in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. I’m a top student in school. My IQ is extremely high. Don’t slander me.”

Bai Yan and the Loli Sect Master could not understand what Zeng Jing was saying.

The Sect Leader loli snorted. “Forget it, I’ll give up on this person. From now on, he’s just an outer sect disciple.”

Bai Yan was embarrassed. She did not have enough comprehension and potential so she had always been despised by everyone. Now that she saw that Zeng Jing seemed to be even more stupid than her, she suddenly felt a little sympathetic when she thought of how she had once been mocked by her fellow disciples. She could not help but pull him to the side and say in a low voice, “Junior Brother Zeng, filling your meridians and Qi acupoints with your essence, qi, and spirit means that you need to comprehend the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and absorb it. As long as you absorb enough spiritual energy and fill your meridians, your conception and governor vessels will automatically open.”

“Spiritual energy?” Zeng Jing said, “Is there any there?”

Bai Yan said, “Do you know why there are so many cultivation sects in Shu Mountain? It’s because the spiritual energy in Shu Mountain is so dense that even mortals can easily sense it. So many sects are stationed here because it is easier to cultivate here. You just have to close your eyes and feel it with your heart! You can feel the dense aura of Shu Mountain.”

Zeng Jing closed his eyes and felt it carefully. He spread out his hands. “However, I can’t feel any Qi.”

Bai Yan was speechless.

He’s a goner!

This was a typical case of a person without “spiritual roots”. People without spiritual roots could not sense the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so they could not cultivate.

Bai Yan saw Zeng Jing looking at her with a pair of big flashing eyes, as if he was looking forward to her teaching him a little more. She suddenly felt a little sorry. This junior brother had climbed the extremely difficult Shu Mountain alone. It had not been easy for him to find the Shu Mountain’s Immortal Sword Sect. When he finally found them, she realized that he did not have a spiritual root. How tragic was that?

Thinking of this, she could not help but think of herself. Her comprehension was too low and it was difficult for her to reach the Great Dao. She could not help but feel sad.

Zeng Jing knew that he was done for seeing the sadness on her beautiful face. It seemed that not being able to sense spiritual energy was a very serious problem. He lowered his voice and asked, “Senior Sister Bai, if I can’t sense spiritual energy, it will affect my Foundation Establishment, right? Foundation Establishment is the foundation of cultivation. If I can’t build a foundation, I can’t cultivate, right?”

Bai Yan nodded sadly.

Zeng Jing said, “Then, is there any other way to build a Foundation Establishment? A stupid way that will suit someone like me.”

Bai Yan said in a low voice, “There’s a replacement method! Body Tempering. Temper your body like crazy. Using internal cultivation methods, you can forcefully open up the conception and governor vessels. This way, you can also complete the Foundation Establishment. However, this is a very low-end method. Even if you succeed in the Foundation Establishment, your Purple Mansion won’t be able to hold enough spiritual energy in the future, and it will be difficult for you to achieve the Great Dao.”

Zeng Jing understood now. Wasn’t this the method to open up the conception and governor vessels the same one mentioned in martial arts novels? It was said that it was very difficult to open up the meridians with Internal Qi. Once it succeeded, one could basically do whatever they wanted in martial arts novels.

Of course, the top experts in wuxia novels were not even shrimps in the cultivation world.

Zeng Jing said, “I’ll take this route.”

Bai Yan said sadly, “If you take this path, it will be very difficult. You need to train your body desperately every day and practice internal energy cultivation methods. You will need to spend about 60 years to cultivate thick Internal Qi. Then, with 60 years of cultivation, you can forcefully open up the conception and governor vessels. There’s no need to say how dangerous it is. Even if you finally open up the conception and governor vessels, with 60 years of cultivation, the foundation you can build is not good. In the end, the capacity of the Purple Mansion is not high, and the spiritual energy it can accommodate is limited. In the future, it can only accommodate spiritual energy for a few hundred years at most. It’s difficult to ascend to the Immortal Dao. Alas, a path filled with difficulties.”

Zeng Jing smiled. “It’s okay! I’ll try it out first.”

With that, he sensed the cultivation in his body.

4.6 billion years of cultivation!

This was given to him by the God of Transmigration. When he was given these cultivation levels, he was just an ordinary person without a Foundation Establishment and a Purple Mansion Therefore, these cultivation levels were stored in his dantian and sea of qi. In other words, they were of the same nature as the Internal Qi in martial arts novels.

Zeng Jing tried to mobilize these cultivation levels to fill his limbs and meridians…

The Pill Scripture mentioned: The conception and governor vessels would open by itself if one was filled with qi!

He had only released a little of his 4.6 billion years of cultivation but it already filled the ends of every meridian in his body with internal true energy. It was so abundant that it almost made him explode.

“Bam!”

The conception and governor vessels were opened!

Foundation Establishment was successful!

Purple Mansion capacity: Infinite.
