Chu Xun had always believed that he was a proper immortal cultivator. Even at the first level of Qi Condensation, it was still Qi Condensation.
It wasn't until the purple spiritual light of the Spirit Pearl Grass reached its peak that a rustling sound of all things growing seed to echo in his ears.
A spiritual energy so powerful that it was beyond his imagination suddenly erged from within his body.
The bright moon hung high in the sky, its clear moonlight incomparably bright, yet it could not cover the brilliance radiating from Chu Xun's body.
Like an immortal stone fallen to the mortal realm, his entire body emitted a dazzling color, crystal clear.
It allowed one to clearly see every bone and every blood vessel.
Furthermore, spiritual energy surged through the ridians all over his body, clearly visible.
The Eight Extraordinary ridians that ordinary martial artists practicing skin, bone, and blood would take decades to break through, he only needed an instant.
His entire body, from top to bottom, was like setting off fireworks, frantically exploding.
Yet in the next instant, it reorganized again.
There was no pain, only the extre pleasure of continuously climbing power.
Even the wedding night in the bridal chamber could not compare to this mont in the slightest.
That was a complete sublimation from body to soul, the majesty of stepping from a mortal into another level.
The massive spiritual energy, at an extraordinary speed, allowed Chu Xun to step from Qi Condensation into Foundation Establishnt in one stride!
Sixty years of ti, the winds and clouds of the world changing.
Birth, aging, illness, and death, joys and sorrows, partings and reunions.
There was perfection, and there were regrets.
Everything condensed in this mont.
Whether it was the giant python on the courtyard wall, the weasels, rabbits, and field mice in the courtyard, or the washbasin-sized toad that had arrived at so unknown ti.
They all stretched their bodies to the limit, seemingly wanting to get closer.
But most of the birds and beasts didn't dare to do so.
Only the cyan and white giant python slithered down from the courtyard wall.
It felt Chu Xun's change, much stronger than before.
The unfamiliarity brought by this strength made it feel uncomfortable.
Since decades ago, it had liked to stick to Chu Xun.
Even when driven to the Songliu River, it would still take advantage of heavy rain to secretly crawl over and take a look.
For this, it didn't know how many tis Chu Xun had knocked it on the head, yet it remained unchanged.
Its stubbornness was so familiar, just like a certain person.
Now that Chu Xun had stepped into the Foundation Establishnt realm, the cyan and white giant python had a feeling that he was about to leave it.
It crawled over without hesitation, its body several zhang long instinctively wrapping around Chu Xun.
Not to harm his life, but reluctant to let him leave.
Chu Xun opened his eyes, spiritual light scattering from his eyes and falling onto the cyan and white giant python.
In the unseen world, it seed a thread had tied them together.
Seeing the massive python head poking over, hissing and flicking its tongue.
In its scarlet pupils, a hint of panic was revealed, just like a human.
Chu Xun laughed, "You little thing, you picked up a bargain for nothing."

【Currently can restore youth once】
The lifespan increase brought by reaching Foundation Establishnt made Chu Xun, despite still having white hair and beard, full of vitality and vigorous life force.
As long as he willed it, he could imdiately restore his youth.
Chu Xun didn't do this imdiately, but continued reading.
The lifespan of the Foundation Establishnt stage had increased to two hundred years, and there was an additional reward of one hundred and fifty years listed separately behind it.
Besides the increase in lifespan and cultivation, there was an additional Divine Office.
As expected, it was uncanonized, but unexpectedly, there was only one hour per year where a flaw would be exposed.
Chu Xun looked up in the direction of Zhangnan County; this one hour would be the most dangerous mont every year.
Further down was why he said the cyan and white giant python had picked up a bargain for nothing.
That bit of spiritual light was the opportunity for the next task.
The cyan and white giant python was reluctant to leave Chu Xun and ca over to wrap around him, causing the spiritual light to naturally fall onto its body.
One could only say that the word 'fate' was wonderfully indescribable.
The other birds and beasts were not as clingy as the cyan and white giant python, resulting in them losing this opportunity, otherwise, they would be the ones Chu Xun had to protect the Dao for.
"Scaled insects overstepping the mandate of heaven... three tribulations..."
Chu Xun raised his eyebrows slightly. This special note was presumably to tell him the risks of protecting the Dao.
Before the cyan and white python transford into a Jiao, ample preparations needed to be made.
How to prepare, and what things to prepare, still needed careful consideration.
The subsequent Five Elents Spells were within expectations.
The new tal, Wood, and Fire spells still started from the most initial stage and gradually improved.
Only the Earth and Water spells were nearing completion.
Not only that, the original control range of a hundred zhang had now directly multiplied tenfold, reaching a vastness of a thousand zhang!
After carefully reading all the information a few tis and confirming there were no omissions, Chu Xun looked again at the Spirit Pearl Grass by his feet.
The matured Spirit Pearl Grass no longer needed to rely on soil to survive.
At this mont, it swayed with the wind and slowly rose into the air.
Chu Xun seed to understand sothing and said, "You have blood and borne fruit, now you are a mature Spirit Pearl Grass, you should have your own path, go."
He reached out and pushed it away, but the Spirit Pearl Grass floated over again, clinging stubbornly just like the cyan and white python.
Over sixty years, it had long gained spirituality.
Limited by its plant body, it could not speak.
Chu Xun sighed. Ordinary people couldn't see the abnormality of the Spirit Pearl Grass, but he saw it clearly.
Wisps of purple spiritual light continuously seeped out from its roots.
After the Spirit Pearl Grass matured, if it wanted to continue surviving, it had to find a heavenly blessed paradise with abundant spiritual energy.
It needed to absorb the spiritual energy within to strengthen itself, otherwise it would wither before long.
This was its characteristic, and also the reason why it needed to be continuously irrigated with spiritual rain for sixty years.
"Go, go. If you achieve success in your cultivation in the future, we will still have a chance to et again," Chu Xun waved his hand and said.
The Spirit Pearl Grass also understood this; it could feel its own spiritual energy continuously depleting.
Its leaves trembled lightly, brushing across Chu Xun's cheek.
Then, like a blade, it ruthlessly sliced open its main stem.
The crystal-clear purple fruit was swatted towards Chu Xun by a leaf, while the leaves of the Spirit Pearl Grass swayed, flying towards the night sky.
Drops of cyan sap fell along the severed main stem.
A few rabbits and field mice at the very bottom looked up, and the sap coincidentally dripped into their mouths.
Their eyes widened, then they squeaked a few tis at Chu Xun, and followed in the direction the Spirit Pearl Grass flew away.
Chu Xun held the purple fruit left by the Spirit Pearl Grass. It contained plant essence and a massive amount of spiritual energy.
Even at the Foundation Establishnt stage, eating it after being injured would imdiately restore one to their original state.
And having lost this fruit, the Spirit Pearl Grass's future cultivation would be even more difficult.
Plant spirits and monsters were all like this.
Chu Xun looked at the deep night sky, the figure of the Spirit Pearl Grass no longer visible.
He sighed softly, "Raised you for sixty years, and you return a life."
"Anxiu... the grass we raised is just like you, very stubborn."
