Chapter 139: Foundation Establishment |
Treasure Deductionl
“Switching to ‘Pure Yang Scroll’ requires half a year. Speak to your family about it, you will likely stay here till you report to Dance Tool Dao Academy.”
“Yes, Master.”
Chen Mobai was a bit excited. After all, this was a Golden Core Cultivator’s personal guidance, and it would last for half a year.
In all of Red Sandstone City, who would get such treatment?
It was probably because he impressed Master Red Robe during the Magic Duel and his choice of Dance Tool Dao Academy, otherwise, Master Red Robe probably wouldn’t even bother, not even for Qing Nu.
However, he soon realized that he was overthinking it.
Master Red Robe only guided him for three days initially. After Chen Mobai completed his first thread of Five Elements Spirit Power transformation, the master disappeared.
“The Headmaster is very busy. But he did say if you encounter any difficulties, you can directly message him. He will respond if he thinks it’s necessary.”
“It’s such a pity. I thought I would receive guidance from Master Red Robe for half a year.”
Chen Mobai looked regretful.
“You should be thankful. We’ve been students for six years, and only took four lessons from the headmaster in total, probably less than a day.”
Returning with some desserts, Shen Juanxiu heard Chen Mobai’s words and responded with a certain sour envy,
“By the way, my admission letter has arrived. I can register as an official member of Building Foundation Treasure.”
Chen Mobai quickly changed the subject, reaching for his phone.
“Really? Quick, quick, import my personal panel.”
Shen Juanxiu was indeed distracted by Chen Mobai’s words.
Chen Mobai had downloaded the Building Foundation Treasure app long ago, but he was always a regular member.
To apply for Super Brain Computing Power and predict the success rate of foundation building, one has to be an official member.
Aside from developers or Core Formation level cultivators’ invitation codes, official membership could also be activated with a student ID from the four big Daoist Institutes or ten major academies.
Chen Mobai’s admission letter was electronic and sent directly to his phone by the official account of Dance Tool Dao Academy. Opening it caused a classic green background to pop up with black characters and a cute unfolding bamboo slip animation.
Then appeared his photo and the content of his admission to the Academy, followed by his student ID number at the end.
Chen Mobai copied it and entered it into the Building Foundation Treasure activation sequence.
After a quick refresh, his profile picture was now framed with red.
“This red frame symbolizes the Dance Tool Dao Academy. A gold frame means it was activated by a Golden Core cultivator’s invitation…”
Shen Juanxiu had thoroughly researched the Building Foundation Treasure App and excitedly guided Chen Mobai to import his personal panel.
Her practice was the Golden Ring Skill, and although her cultivation had dropped to Qi Cultivation level 8 due to a failed Foundation Establishment, she hadn’t yet recovered. Nevertheless, she filled in Qi Cultivation level 9 perfection on Chen Mobai’s personal panel information.
Then they clicked ‘next’, which prompted a new interface.
[Please select supplementary spiritual items for Foundation Establishment]
“Choose all three Foundation Establishment treasures. Although I don’t have them yet, I will surely have them before I build my foundation.”
Shen Juanxiu spoke with confidence when she said this.
Chen Mobai nodded and selected Vein Protection Pill, Spirit Ascension Powder, and Solidifying Qi Liquid.
“Also, add Kun Essence Blood and Profound Fire Spirit Liquid.”
Chen Mobai was astounded to hear this. He hadn’t anticipated Shen Juanxiu would have a connection to acquire these things.
The Profound Fire Spirit Liquid was an item used by the Dance Tool Dao Academy to assist in Foundation Establishment. Consuming it expands and nurtures the meridians, increasing the odds of successful Foundation Establishment.
“I actually don’t have them, but the Building Foundation Treasure app gives us this one chance. I want to fill in every item that can raise my foundation building success rate to see how high my success rate can be.”
When Shen Juanxiu said those words, she seemed slightly less confident probably because she had failed in Foundation Establishment once.
By using Building Foundation Treasure, she intended to boost her confidence.
Chen Mobai nodded and manually filled in these two spiritual objects.
Then move on to the next step.
[Which attempt at Foundation Establishment is this?]
Eh, why is there such an option?
Chen Mobai and the two women looked at each other. After Shen Juanxiu nodded, they chose [Second Time],
Next step.
[Which step did the first Foundation Establishment reach? One: Change Tendons and Wash Marrow; Two: Condensing Qi into Liquid; Three: Divine Consciousness Leaving Body]
Shen Juanxiu hesitatingly chose the first. She couldn’t lie about this, lest it affect the accuracy of the supercomputer’s extrapolation.
Continue to the next step.
[What rank is the Spirit Vein used for Foundation Establishment?]
[Rank-3, Intermediate-grade.]
Shen Juanxiu is wealthy, so this is the highest grade spirit vein that Cinnabarite Institute can provide for its students.
[Please confirm whether all the information above is correct?]
Finally, at the last step, Chen Mobai placed his mobile phone on the dining table and let Shen Juanxiu check everything again one last time. After confirming that there were no issues, he took a deep breath and clicked [Confirm],
Then suddenly, a red popup window appeared!
[The user ‘If I Were the Blue Emperor in the Future’ backend data does not match the character on the data panel, do you want to continue with the extrapolation? After this time, you need to wait for two years before you can queue up to use this software again.]
Shen Juanxiu immediately looked nervously at Chen Mobai, who was taken aback, not expecting this software to also have backend validation.
However, he had already accepted the payment, and the green bamboo pen was also used several times, so there was absolutely no reason to go back on his word.
[Yes]!
He extended his finger and clicked the button.
Shen Juanxiu breathed a sigh of relief, then looked even more nervously at the rotating animation on the Foundation Treasure screen.
About two minutes later, a huge percentage number appeared before their eyes.
[Foundation Establishment Success Rate: 39%!]
Seeing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but frown.
Despite applying so many conditions, the success rate was still less than fifty percent.
He felt a little awkward, but noticed that Shen Juanxiu looked ecstatic, as if she was extremely happy with this number.
“Professor Chen, does this success rate of 39% looks pretty good to you?”
Chen Mobai asked, somewhat confused.
“Without using any Foundation Building spiritual objects, the success rate of Foundation Establishment at the 9th level of Qi Cultivation is one in a hundred, which is 1%. You can imagine how high a success rate of 39% is.”
Shen Juanxiu guided Chen Mobai to click on the detailed calculation of the Foundation Treasure.
[A complete set of the Three Great Foundation Treasures increases the success rate of Foundation Establishment by 10°/o]
[A bottle of Kun Essence Blood, its efficacy overlaps with the Three Great Foundation Treasures, the success rate of Foundation Establishment increases by 6%]
[A portion of Profound Fire Spiritual Liquid, its efficacy overlaps with the Vein Protection Pill, and conflicts with the user’s Gold Ring Cultivation, increases the success rate of Foundation Establishment by 3%]
[At the perfect stage of the 9th level of Qi Cultivation, the Change Tendons and Wash Marrow step has already been completed in the first attempt, increases the success rate of Foundation Establishment by 12%]
[Rank-3, Intermediate-grade Spirit Vein, increases the success rate of Foundation Establishment by 8%]
After reading this, Shen Juanxiu breathed a sigh of relief, but her face showed some struggle.
Among these, she couldn’t get “Kun Essence Blood” and “Profound Fire Spirit Liquid”. In other words, her actual success rate for Foundation Establishment was only 30%.
But even so, she was already very satisfied.
Meanwhile, Chen Mobai was thinking about the Foundation Building Pill from the Tianhe Realm.
It seems that a single Foundation Building Pill can offer a success rate of 30% for Foundation Establishment!
