Chapter 269: The Immortal Establishment Realm!

The illusory form of Little Missy led the unconscious Wang Baole into the depths of the crater.

The mist was thinner here, and unable to conceal the full sight before them.

It was a vast, round cavern that stretched for thousands of yards. Unless one was perched atop an elevated spot, try as they might, they wouldn’t be able to see the end of the cavern.

What was visible within the expansive cavern was the thousands of figures on the ground, laid out in circles, kneeling forward in a bow. They didn’t move a single inch. Their attires were different from those of people on Earth and clearly from a more ancient time. If there had been a specialist from the Federation well versed in the study of the ancient green-bronze sword, he would immediately recognize them to be… ancient sword cultivators!

In the crowd were both men and women, old and young. All of them were kneeling forward in a deep bow. They had long passed, but the bodies they had left behind retained the last expression on their faces before they died. It was as if they had shut their eyes in devoted prayer, or perhaps in an attempt to summon something just before their death…

In a single glance, one would see rings upon rings of cultivators filling the entire cavern. In the center of the rings was a towering altar!

The altar stood three hundred meters tall and had three tiers… If Wang Baole were awake, he would find the altar familiar. It was the exact same altar that he had seen during his fusion with the small tripod cauldron!

Even the lowest first tier and its four corners upon which the small tripod cauldrons sat were exactly the same. However, there were only two small tripod cauldrons on the altar, and they were both broken. No Spirit Qi emanated from them. The other two cauldrons had somehow been taken away, perhaps shot out from the crater or through some other means and for some other reason. One of those was undoubtedly the one Wang Baole had fused with!

Some of the beads on the second tier and the mist on the third tier were also either absent or broken and left without Spirit Qi.

They were all unimportant though. What was most important… was the mist that hovered above the altar in mid-air. It exuded an astounding vitality, and within the mist was the indistinct form of… a green lotus!

The green lotus was partially shriveled up. Despite that, when it swayed gently in the breeze, it radiated a green light that emanated spirit energy which seemed to have surpassed certain limits. It sat within the green glow, contained. However, looking at the green lotus, one was faced with a vision of a thundering Spirit Qi hurricane that rose to the heavens!

In comparison, the small tripod cauldron that Wang Baole had gotten his hands on previously was like a pale pinprick of a star hanging in the same sky as the bright luminous moon. The light exuding from both heavenly objects weren’t of the same class!

The vitality in the mist had clearly originated from within the green lotus. The intensity of the vitality could blanket the entire Mystic Luna Realm if unleashed!

The green lotus sat in the mist. It felt like something that didn’t belong to this world. The mere sight of it would shake one to their core, like a violent hurricane sweeping away one’s spirit and soul!

It was something that had been worshipped by tens of thousands of ancient cultivators and had received tribute in the form of numerous small tripod cauldrons and other even rarer items. That itself was a sign of its immense power!

It was as if it were the embodiment of legends!

The embodiment of myths!

The embodiment of hope and endless possibility!

One might even say that its power didn’t affect only the cultivators on Earth. Those who hailed from other civilizations and practiced the art of cultivation, regardless of their cultivation realm, would, upon seeing the green lotus, go mad with longing for it. Waves of lust would rise roaring in their hearts!

It was as if the green lotus reigned supreme and was one of the many mysterious life-transforming powers in the universe!

The cultivators here might have been people who had landed on the moon after the ancient green-bronze sword shattered. Before they died, they had carried out a grand sacrificial ceremony and attempted to summon the green lotus. They had succeeded, but for some reason, had still fallen.

Or perhaps the green lotus had been a sacred object that had belonged to their clan and had been something they had used their lives to protect.

With the support of Little Missy, the unconscious Wang Baole was brought here. She placed him at one side, lifted her head, and stared at the green lotus in the mist. The soft glow of memory seemed to glimmer in her eyes. She appeared to be immersed in happy memories. After a long, long time, she lifted her right hand and pointed. Suddenly, the green lotus in the mist shuddered. It slowly flew out from the mist and dashed towards Little Missy. It stopped, finally, in mid-air before her.

A large part of it might have already shriveled up, but it still exuded an alarming and intense vitality. The life force surged forward. It seemed to contain within itself a Spirit Qi that had been compressed to the extreme. The Spirit Qi was bubbling with life. The young, healthy shoots were a vibrant jade green that surpassed all earthly beauty. One glance at it was enough to drive one crazy for it, enough to summon an instinctive want to possess the green lotus!

“Count yourself lucky, meeting me…” Little Missy lowered her head. It was unclear whether her words were directed at Wang Baole or the green lotus. She seemed reluctant, unwilling, yet exasperated. She waved her right hand and pressed the green lotus directly onto Wang Baole’s dantian.

Upon contact, the green lotus instantly melted into Wang Baole’s body. It disappeared, then reappeared inside Wang Baole’s body, within the severely injured dantian that was on the verge of collapse.

Upon its fusion, an indescribable life force erupted within Wang Baole’s body. It was as if an earth-shattering, heaven-moving transformation was about to unfold within Wang Baole at that moment!

The life force was so overwhelming that it healed the wound on Wang Baole’s stomach almost instantly, within the blink of an eye. It repaired the ruined meridians in his body, and even his flesh wounds and damaged organs were all instantly healed!

This wasn’t the full extent of the astounding transformation. After repairing Wang Baole’s injured body, the green lotus sank its roots deep in and surged towards the devouring seed.

The devouring seed showed its first signs of submission. It allowed the green lotus to sink its roots deep inside it. The two fused into one, and the devouring seed appeared to take the place of the mist that had formerly enveloped the green lotus. After becoming a part of the green lotus, the devouring seed also became its source of sustenance!

It was then that the signs of shriveling on the green lotus faded away. It no longer appeared to be a rootless form. It now had a foundation, and roots from which it could sustain itself and grow!

The Spirit Qi within it erupted at that moment. As it transformed Wang Baole’s body, it began to build… a Foundation Establishment core!

With the small tripod cauldron stolen and his Dao foundations ruined, it shouldn’t have been possible for Wang Baole to achieve the Foundation Establishment realm again in his lifetime. But now… the tides had turned. As Spirit Qi continued to erupt in his body, a thunderous boom rumbled inside him. The green lotus took the place of the small tripod cauldron and started to meld with Wang Baole’s flesh form.

The speed of the fusion was quicker than the previous fusion with the small tripod cauldron. In the span of a dozen breaths, a tenth of the lotus had melded with Wang Baole. Spirit Qi erupted from his body, rumbling outwards. The mere one-tenth exceeded his previous eighty percent fusion with the small tripod cauldron!

Such luck was inconceivable and utterly incredible. As Spirit Qi continued to erupt from Wang Baole’s body, the fusion progressed to twenty percent, then thirty percent…

The Spirit Qi inside Wang Baole’s body increased at a crazy, exponential rate. When the fusion was complete at a hundred percent, an earth-shattering transformation took place inside Wang Baole. An overpowering Foundation Establishment core formed inside him. After fusing with Wang Baole and becoming his Foundation Establishment core, the overpowering green lotus seemed to view the other presences inside Wang Baole’s body with disdain. It swayed, causing a shudder to travel through Wang Baole. The purple sea in his eye appeared, trembling, and the black lightning resting in his meridians was also startled awake.

Unable to withstand the overwhelming presence of the green lotus and left with nowhere to go, the purple sea burrowed its way into the scabbard inside Wang Baole and transformed into the eleventh mosquito!

The black lightning bolt, after a slight pause, chose to compromise as well and snaked inside the scabbard, turning into the twelfth mosquito!

After cleaning up the mess inside Wang Baole’s body, the green lotus was finally satisfied. It slowly sank into the devouring seed and began the last step to the Foundation Establishment realm, one that no one had ever carried out before!

Elevation!

Rumbling continued to erupt inside Wang Baole’s body. The act of elevation was one of distilling Wang Baole’s current cultivation and enhancing its quality, and in doing so, transform him.

After the green lotus fused with Wang Baole’s flesh form and become another organ inside his body, it had also spread its roots throughout Wang Baole’s body. Wang Baole’s muscles, bones, and meridians underwent a rapid transformation akin to an evolution!

As time passed, his Spirit Qi grew stronger and had long since surpassed his original levels. His Dao foundation, under the evolution of his physical form and cultivation, also gradually met the green lotus’ expectations and transformed into… one of the rarest forms of Dao foundation!

His Foundation Establishment core was no longer a mere creation from fusion. It was one that was famed throughout the cultivation civilizations in the entire universe… the invincible, supreme Green Lotus Foundation Establishment core!
