Chapter 418: The Preparation Before Foundation Building!
Ye Chen returned home after leaving Old Chen’s place.
He was secretly making the preparations for the Longmen Convention.
At this moment, his body was only left with blood and flesh. His cultivation base had been destroyed when he returned to Earth to avoid being torn apart while passing through the spatial tear. To be exact, he still had his cultivation level, but he no longer had spiritual energy.
It was like a water tank that could initially contain a ton of water having a hole at the bottom. The water in the tank would have leaked. In order to fill the tank again, one must fix the hole and pour water in.
Meanwhile, the spiritual energy that was required for cultivation was like the water in the tank. With sufficient spiritual energy, it was possible for Ye Chen to recover his old cultivation base. However, Earth lacked spiritual energy. He had returned for three months, but he had only recovered to peak-stage Spirit Assembly.
The level above Spirit Assembly would be Foundation Building.
Foundation Building, as the name suggested, was to build the base. A good foundation was mandatory for cultivation in the future. However, a Geographical Vein was required to get to Foundation Building. A Geographical Vein was divided into two: the Heavenly Spirit Geographical Vein and the Earthly Fiend Geographical Vein. There were 72 types of Heavenly Spirit Geographical Veins and 36 types of Earthly Fiend Geographical Veins.
Meanwhile, the two Geographical Veins were divided into Earth Dao Foundation and Heaven Dao Foundation. The methods that could be performed were divided into 72 Heavenly Spirit Methods and 36 Earthly Fiend Methods. In general, the 72 Heavenly Spirit Methods were about mediation, converting yin to yang and vice versa, changing the coordinates of stars, turning the heavens upside down, calling upon rain and and wind, shaking mountains, riding on clouds, turning rivers into lands, and so on…
Meanwhile, the 36 Earthly Fiend Methods would be carrying mountains, controlling the wind, releasing fog, bringing the sun out, calling upon the rain, and so on…
Heaven was above and the earth was beneath!
Before getting to Foundation Building, the methods that Ye Chen could perform were actually far and few. He relied on the upper hand of his body most of the time, or the Divine Punch created within 33 days. As soon as he got to Foundation Building, the methods that he could perform would grow. Naturally, it completely depended on the type of foundation he delved into.
However, Ye Chen was not focusing on the Earth Dao Foundation and the Heaven Dao Foundation. Instead, what he wanted was the Divine Dao Foundation!
The Divine Dao Foundation surpassed the Earth Dao Foundation and the Heaven Dao Foundation. As soon as he achieved the Divine Dao Foundation, he could perform the 72 Heavenly Spirit Methods and the 36 Earthly Fiend Methods. That was the terrifying part of the Divine Dao Foundation.
However, Earth was lacking spiritual energy. It was hard to locate the Earthly Fiend Geographical Vein, let alone the one-in-a-million Divine Geographical Vein. However, Ye Chen did not hesitate to go for it because he had the ability to convert a normal Geographical Vein into a Divine Geographical Vein by force.
The sinkhole in Shennongjia was his target.
Therefore, he had been making preparation for Foundation Building throughout these three days. He spent ten billion yuan looking for various precious stones and materials such as the Centennial Blood Coral in the ocean and more.
Initially, he thought he would monitor Lin Tai and Yang Tian’s cultivation. However, since they started following the Patriarch of Hell, Yang Tian seemed to have deviated from where he was initially going. He would always go to different night clubs. At the same time, he had stepped into beginner-stage Spirit Assembly.
Ye Chen was enjoying himself as he made preparing and spending time with Su Yuhan and their daughter. He felt like he found time to relax for a little bit.
…
Three days passed by, and the entire spell world in China was stirred because the Longmen Convention was a grand event that the spell world had made customary. It would be held every three years, and everyone from the spell world would participate.
The goal of their participation was no other than exchanging cultivation thoughts and getting to know about sects. Most importantly, there would be Spell Sages there sharing insights, as well as giving sermons.
A Spell Sage!
In the spell world, the status of a Spell Sage was no lower than a Martial Dao master in the ancient martial arts world. It was even nobler since it was much harder to become a Spell Master than a rookie ancient martial artist. One’s comprehension, root of wisdom, and family inheritance would be taken into account.
Therefore, countless people from the spell world rushed to Shennongjia like a swarm of bees throughout those three days. Many spell sects such as Maoshan, Laoshan and Dragon Tiger Mountain were present. There were cultivation families too, including the Zhao family from Lingnan, and the Shen family and the Wu family from Hong Kong…
After breakfast, Ye Chen got a call from Old Chen. “Ye, I’ve sent people to Tiannan. They should arrive soon. Then, follow them to Shennongjia. I’ve spoken to the people there. They’ll take your orders.”
“Thanks!” Ye Chen hung up the call after thanking him.
Su Yuhan appeared out of nowhere in an apron. Her pretty face looked upset. “You’re going out again?”
“It’s boring for me to stay home alone.” Ye Chen pretended to sigh. “Our daughter has gone back to school while you’re the beautiful director of a big company that you are so busy with. Dad and Mom go to the nursing home to play chess every now and then. I’m alone in this house, so it’s boring.”
Yesterday, the Ye family had a family meeting. The meeting was mainly to discuss whether Mengmeng should continue going to kindergarten. It was a heated and meaningful discussion.
As her father, Ye Chen was the first to speak, “I’ve accumulated a vast fortune for Mengmeng. Her mother is the director of a group. No matter whether it’s me or her mother, she’s no weaker than anyone. Therefore, there’s no need for her to go to school. Reading and mathematics are all that she needs to know.”
It turned out his parents and his wife objected as soon as he voiced his opinion. They shared the same view. His parents said that Mengmeng should be trained since she was young as she was the only daughter of a family with a big business to prevent her from failing to inherit the family business when she grew up.
Meanwhile, what Su Yuhan said was even more straightforward. “I don’t care that you’re fighting and killing out there, but I won’t allow my daughter to be like you in the future. A girl should be like a girl: composed, courteous, kind and well-mannered. Those are the characteristics of a good girl. Therefore, my daughter must go to school.”
Ye Chen could not fight them, thus Su Yuhan suggested voting eventually. Ye Chen scoffed and surrendered without even thinking about it. Excluding the little girl, there were four of them at home. If the three of them opposed him, what was the meaning of voting?
Therefore, his parents had sent the little girl to school earlier in the morning. She had a little backpack that looked like the one in the Honor of Kings online game. She was so happy about going to sing the national anthem. Therefore, Ye Chen could only let her go to school.
Su Yuhan rolled her eyes at him angrily when she heard his joke. She suddenly hugged him softly and whispered, “Come home soon.”
“Yes, I will!” Ye Chen sniffed her hair as if he was charmed. A red garment appeared in his hand as he said, “Remember to put this on when I’m gone.”
“What’s this?” Su Yuhan was stunned at first, then she could not help but blush when she took a better look at it. The garment in Ye Chen’s hand looked very much like sexy lingerie. It made her mind go wild.
Ye Chen did not notice her expression. Instead, he began explaining while smiling, “This is the protective garment that I’ve refined for you. It can prevent people from hurting and attacking you when you put it on.”
He had made the protective garment in these three days. Although it was just a middle-grade magical tool, it was sufficient for Su Yuhan. After all, she had Iron Tower protecting her at all times.
