The Founder of Qi Cultivation, Reincarnates?

Within the small stone hut, Xi Shen was seated in a cross-legged position with Yang Su in front of him.

“All right Yang Su, are you ready?”

As Xi Shen said that, Yang Su looked nervous as he said, “Wait, elder brother Xi Shen you haven’t exactly told me what you're going to do.”

After Yang Su had greeted Xi Shen, the latter had immediately dragged him into the hut without any explanation.

They were currently within the only bedroom in the house, and Yang Su could see that most of the furniture was either knocked over or totally destroyed. Yang Su also saw burnt marks on the white-blanketed bed in the corner.

The whole room just looked as if a burning tornado had swept through the room. And even though there was a formation that gathers the Spiritual Qi from the surrounding area here and acts as a protection for the small house, Yang Su still saw fine cracks running along the walls.

Xi Shen looked at the nervous Yang Su and said, “What are you so anxious about? I’m just going to give you a fortune of a lifetime.”

Xi Shen then started to grin as he stared at Yang Su with shining eyes.

Hearing that, the nervous Yang Su nodded his head, and while banging his chest with his fist, he said with the most conviction a thirteen-year-old could muster, “Okay, I’ll trust elder brother Xi Shen, even if it’s with my life!”

Xi Shen looked at Yang Su with a raised eyebrow as he said, “There’s no need to be so serious. As long as you had followed my instructions and didn’t start your cultivation, then you’ll only feel a slight stabbing pain in your abdomen.”

Yang Su nodded his head again and said, “I followed elder brother’s words exactly, and I only meditate every day until now.”

Hearing that, Xi Shen nodded his head repeatedly, and then said, “That’s good. Back at the Disciple Selection Ceremony, your soul started to undergo a mutation because you absorbed a piece of my severed soul. So meditating on a regular basis will help you finish the absorption process and stabilize your soul. And from what I saw in the training ground, I’m sure you felt the changes you're going through.” 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m

Yang Su nodded while being slightly stunned as he kind of finally understood why he felt such a weird connection to his elder brother Xi Shen.

“Okay get ready, I’m about to bestow you with a fortune so great even the damn heavens will be jealous.”

As Xi Shen said that, he placed his hand on Yang Su's back. The both of them closed their eyes, while Xi Shen sent his perception towards Yang Su’s dantian.

What appeared before his eyes, was a slightly deformed dantian that had a few cracks on its surface. The grade of a person’s foundation was determined by the quality of their dantian, and looking at Yang Su’s own, Xi Shen could tell that it hasn’t even reached the Human-grade.

If Yang Su had tried to train in a cultivation method, he would have probably been severely injured by the Qi backlash, or worse dead.

Xi Shen hadn’t told him that cause he wanted to test his temperament. If he couldn’t even follow a simple command from him, then in the future he would most likely end up screwing him over by spilling all of his secrets. He would have helped him for nothing then.

But seeing how Yang Su had done as he asked and was even quick to see him as family, Xi Shen judged the boy to be nothing more than a determined and kind kid, who was willing to open his heart to anyone who treated him like a normal human being.

So Yang Su had no regrets about what he was going to do next.

In this era, to walk on the path of cultivation the most important thing one has to have is a good foundation. But to cultivate to the peak of the cultivation world, a good foundation won’t cut it.

‘I say only a foundation that can make the heavens tremble in anger, and feel trepidation, would be good enough to be called a Supreme-grade foundation. Only a foundation like that would be able to make someone reach the peak of cultivation, not only in this era but the eras before it and the eras that will come after.’

As Xi Shen thought that, an insurmountable force erupted from his body that distorted and warp the space surrounding him and Yang Su.

All the Spiritual Qi in the room began to tremble uncontrollably, before rushing towards Yang Su only to come to a stop in front of his dantian. The Spiritual Qi then began turning into a sphere that became visible, as it began to rotate at high speeds.

Seeing this Xi Shen frown and then thought, ‘So I was right. Creating a foundation for someone else takes considerable more effort than creating my own. I used my comprehension and understanding of the law of time to construct my ‘Dao Foundation’. But for Yang Su, I have to extract the laws of the five elements from the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth to form his. This little bit won’t be enough for that.’

Xi Shen gritted his teeth as he said, ‘Fine! I’ve already taken Yang Su as my assistant and he even sees me as a big brother. So what if I have to fight the heavens? It can’t stop me from changing his destiny!’

As Xi Shen thought that, he slammed his palm on the hard ground, after which a red rune that covered the entire room appeared before sinking into the ground, disappearing.

Not a second later, the yellow formation that was placed around this courtyard appeared, and then like the red rune disappeared back into the ground.

After that, the second outer sect mountain, which Xi Shen and Yang Su were situated on, began to tremble as a black rune appeared on its entire surface.

All the disciples who were walking about or cultivating on the mountain became stunned by what was happening. They all looked down to see a glowing black rune below their feet. The people who were in their courtyards arduously cultivating for the upcoming Freshmen Disciple Competition felt the Spiritual Qi in their surroundings suddenly getting sucked into the black rune that just appeared.

This caused them to cough up a mouth full of blood from the backlash of Spiritual Qi within their bodies.

“Wh...What’s happening?!!!” A disciple ran out of his courtyard screaming, while a stream of blood flowed from his lips.

He was one of the few that hadn’t fallen unconscious from the sudden Spiritual Qi backlash they received.

The mountain was filled with hysteria, as the nearly sixty thousand disciples or so began to panic.

Suddenly, a furious aura rose from a distant mountain before an enraged voice echoed across the four Outer Sect mountains, “Who dares tamper with the academy’s Grand Formation!!!”

As that voice boomed out, all the outer disciples on the four mountains looked towards the sky, including Xi Shen.

He currently had a smirk plastered across his lips.

Chuckling he said, “You people call this a Grand Formation? Don’t make me laugh!!”

Xi Shen then thought in his mind, ‘The formations I studied in my past life were way more complex than this. And the worst thing, all of the formations in this era were derived from those from the God Era to accommodate Spiritual Qi usage. They’re basically a rip-off of the original! All I had to do was reverse the nodes for this mountain’s formation and then construct a master rune, effectively stripping it from the Grand Formation that surrounds this entire academy… Haha..hahaha..hahahaaha’.
