Seeing Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang so eager to try Foundation Establishment, Yang Fei pondered briefly and said to Ye Wuya, "Brother Ye, are none of you from the Lingxiao Sect able to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

Ye Wuya shook his head and said, "To refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, one must be at least a Second Rank Middle Grade Alchemist. Among us, Yun Zong Junior Brother has the highest alchemy skill, but he only advanced to Second Rank Alchemist a few years ago and still has a gap to reach Second Rank Middle Grade. Most importantly, the materials for refining Foundation Establishment Pill are quite demanding. They can be fully gathered in the Cultivation World of the Central Great World, but in this Earth Space, it's almost impossible."

Yang Fei frowned and said, "Earth is also vast and resource-rich, many herbs are available. It's not necessarily impossible to gather the herbs for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, right?"

Ye Wuya smiled and shook his head, "Fellow Daoist Yang, you may not know, but to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, besides precious herbs, the inner core of a spiritual beast or demon beast is needed as a catalyst, otherwise it cannot be synthesized. Earth has just experienced Spiritual Energy Revival, and there are no spiritual beasts or demon beasts yet."

Yang Fei was dumbfounded on the spot.

Qin Yanyang sighed and said, "Hearing you say that, Cultivation is really difficult."

Ye Wuya nodded and said, "Indeed, cultivating is going against the heavens, naturally full of hardships."

Yang Fei looked towards Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang, saying, "Do you two really not want to wait a bit longer? You can follow my Foundation Establishment method and refine your entire body's meridians and acupoints first. With your True Qi cultivation, this process shouldn't take more than a year or so."

Qin Yanyang nodded and said, "Yes, I also cultivated using the method Yang Fei mentioned. After my meridians and acupoints were refined to an extremely strong state, I naturally crossed the tribulation and established my foundation."

Helian Zhan's gaze was firm as he resolutely said, "Brother Ye, could you tell us the Foundation Establishment Technique? Brother Chunyang and I will study it. If it's possible, we'll try it. If not, we'll wait and follow Yang Fei's method."

Wang Chunyang nodded and said, "Yes, I think the same."

Ye Wuya immediately said, "Since you two are so anxious, I will tell you the Foundation Establishment Technique."

Ye Wuya then briefly described the Foundation Establishment Technique.

After listening to Ye Wuya's description, everyone fell silent.

After a moment, Helian Zhan said, "So, Foundation Establishment is about making the cultivator's body more in tune with the Heavenly Dao Power, converting True Qi into Immortal Law power, causing another qualitative change in True Qi, and transforming the cultivator's body into a furnace of heaven and earth, capable of refining nature's spiritual energy into mana?"

Ye Wuya nodded and said, "That's roughly it. In short, after Foundation Establishment, the absorbed Spiritual Power becomes true mana, and the cultivator can use it to wield some Divine Skills. Otherwise, with just a Martial Artist's Inner Strength and True Qi, it's impossible to unleash the power of Divine Skills."

Wang Chunyang said, "This scenario is akin to the transition from Inner Strength to the Energy Transformation Realm."

Ye Wuya, who also had some knowledge of Martial Arts, nodded and said, "More or less, but the difference between mana and True Qi is far greater than the difference between True Qi and Inner Strength."

Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang nodded.

They were well aware of this point.

No matter how formidable Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang were before, they could be opposed, but now that both had established their foundation, the power they wielded was entirely different, giving others a feeling of being overwhelmed; hence, the difference between mana and True Qi was significant.

"Therefore, once you start Foundation Establishment, your body must withstand the transition from True Qi to mana. This process involves the tempering of Heavenly Dao Power on you. If you can't endure it, you will fail in Foundation Establishment, causing great harm and often resulting in a drop in Realm," Ye Wuya warned.

Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang nodded with solemn expressions.

Afterward, both expressed their gratitude to Ye Wuya and left.

Watching them depart, Ye Wuya sighed and said, "Their conviction is incredibly strong, and their confidence in their abilities is something I have never seen before."

Yang Fei laughed and said, "Indeed, you could call them arrogant, but it's precisely because of this self-confidence that they have come this far. They've never asked about my method for Foundation Establishment, so it seems they've decided to try the method you suggested."

Ye Wuya nodded silently and said, "Yes, they'll surely try my method. However, they are in fact rushing too much. I believe that using your Foundation Establishment method would give them a higher chance of success. Additionally, if they combine it with a Foundation Establishment Pill, the success rate could increase by two to three times. This would, in turn, significantly boost the overall strength of the Cultivation World."

Yang Fei chuckled, "That's quite an exaggeration."

Ye Wuya thought for a moment and said seriously, "I'm not exaggerating; I'm stating facts. Your method of refining the body's meridians and acupoints to an extremely strong level is similar to the legendary path of physical immortality and sanctification."

Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang's expressions subtly changed.

The more they interacted with the people from the Lingxiao Sect, the more they realized that Earth's cultivation path differed slightly from the Cultivation World in the Central Great World.

Just like their own Foundation Establishment.

According to the people from the Lingxiao Sect, both were indeed at the Foundation Establishment Stage in terms of cultivation.

Yet the way they achieved Foundation Establishment was different from that in the Cultivation World.

In the Cultivation World, Foundation Establishment hardly ever triggered a Heavenly Tribulation, but when Yang Fei established his foundation, he was tempered by the Thunder Power of the Five Stars Thousand Mechanism Killing Array.

As for Qin Yanyang, she directly attracted nine thunder tribulations during her breakthrough.

The most crucial point is that neither of them used Foundation Establishment Pills, yet they succeeded.

In the Cultivation World, without the Foundation Establishment Pill, the success rate of Foundation Establishment is only one to two percent, which for an individual effectively means near zero—the likelihood of success is practically nonexistent.

A genuine Foundation Establishment Pill can increase the success rate by two to three percent, while a premium Foundation Establishment Pill can raise it to four percent.

Thus, cultivators with genuine and premium Foundation Establishment Pills face a success rate of fifty to sixty percent. Even with such odds, many still fail to establish their foundation.

This is why cultivation is so arduous.

Yet both Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang succeeded in Foundation Establishment without even knowing what a Foundation Establishment Pill is.

To the seven people of the Lingxiao Sect, this was extraordinary and extremely peculiar.

"We'll just have to wait and see. If Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang also succeed in Foundation Establishment..." Ye Wuya paused, then sighed, "If they do succeed, then the future path of cultivation for you Earthlings, who transition from Martial Artists to cultivators, might be vastly different from the traditional path of cultivators."

Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang felt a stirring in their hearts and couldn't help but become filled with anticipation for Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang's Foundation Establishment.

Qin Yanyang thought for a moment and said, "Yang Fei, why don't we keep an eye on them these next few days to ensure nothing happens to them."

Yang Fei nodded, "Alright, no matter what, they are the elite of our Earth. If they succeed in Foundation Establishment, they will be a great support in facing external threats or if we venture into the Central Great World."
