Chapter 200: Foundation Establishment! (1/2)

After passing through the location of the five Nascent Souls again, Jiang Li, who had already experienced it once, was clearly much more successful this time.

After he returned to the ground, Jiang Li stepped on the air repeatedly and walked along the small passageway. Soon, he encountered the Five Elements Formation Disk that blocked his path.

The authority given to him by Peak Master Wei was not enough to take effect here.

At this moment, the Shu Mountain Earth Spirit was still wailing in his Qi Sea. Without him opening the door, the problem came. How could he return to the surface through this indestructible Five Elements Formation Disk?

It was obviously not reliable to use his fists to smash it. The Demon Subduing Pagoda that was connected to the earth vein was something that even a Nascent Soul cultivator could not break. Jiang Li reckoned that even if he died here, he would not be able to break it, although he would not die from exhaustion anyway.

Apart from brute force, was there any other way to pass through this place?

There was.

The old Earth Spirit had secretly corroded the array formation in the Demon Subduing Pagoda for more than a thousand years. Although he could not accumulate the power to take revenge on Shu Mountain, it was enough to let him open a few small back doors in the Demon Subduing Pagoda.

After all, in the original plan, after he seized Jiang Li's body, he had to think of a way to get out.

With his flesh and blood body, he could no longer appear and disappear like the spiritual bodies. It would definitely be even more difficult to use the escape technique to travel. Therefore, the back door he left behind must be quite big.

Although Jiang Li, who had already obtained the Earth Spirit Body, did not have an earth attribute spiritual root and had never cultivated an earth attribute cultivation method, he could still rely on this physique to use a simple Earth Escape Technique.

What he needed to do now was find a gap that could allow him to escape.

In Jiang Li's eyes, the towering Shu Mountain Five Elements Peak was reflected. In his vision, the flow of the earth vein power became clearer.

It was hard to say how much the Earth Spirit Body had increased Jiang Li's strength. The greatest help it gave him was still in the Dao of Runic Formations.

In the cultivation world of the Great Mountain Region, what kind of array formation was recognized as the most powerful?

It was similar to the Shu Mountain Five Elements Peak and the Misty Mountain Range. It combined the mountains and rivers and borrowed the power of heaven and earth to form a large array.

With his talent in runes and array formations, coupled with this pair of eyes that could see the flow of the earth vein, this would undoubtedly make his formation path seem like a cheat.

Compared to others, they had to calculate in detail before they could roughly guess the direction of the earth vein flow and carefully set up the array bit by bit.

However, Jiang Li was able to directly see the earth vein clearly, and it was even to the extent that he was able to directly extract it from the ground. The advantage and convenience he was able to obtain when setting up a large-scale formation could simply not be described with words.

In next to no time, Jiang Li noticed that within the complicated formation patterns of the Five Elements Formation, there was an earth vein energy that was different from the others. It was several times thicker than other earth vein energy, and it flowed in a completely different direction.

Jiang Li's eyes lit up. It was here.

He reached out and pressed down on that node. The earth vein power of the same source slowly seeped into it, following the direction of that array pattern and seeping his strength in bit by bit.

Following that, the Earth Escape Technique imbued with the Earth Spirit Body activated. His figure was like toothpaste as he slowly squeezed into the flowing reverse formation pattern.

Following the flow of the earth vein power, he shuttled through the Five Elements Array Disk, and the scene he sensed was strange and varied.

A moment later, a head appeared from the other side of the Five Elements Formation. Then, the entire body squeezed out bit by bit.

After all, Jiang Li had never practiced Earth Escape or had an earth attribute spiritual root. He could not escape instantly like Shen Ruoshi from the Heaven and Earth Hall.

With the help of the rich earth vein power, the process was still very difficult.

It was impossible to use it in battle. It was barely enough to drill a hole in the ground.

It took him more than a minute to successfully squeeze past the array disk's obstruction and reach the seventh level.

However, now that he had found a way, the rest was simple.

Relying on this back door, after going up two more levels, Jiang Li had already returned to the fifth level. On the Golden Light Pagoda statue in the outside world, the fake red dot had originally stopped on the meditation mat in front of the pagoda monument.

Now that Jiang Li came up and walked around twice, that red dot overlapped with his true body, no longer having any obvious signs.

From here, he could use the token to go up openly.

When he finally returned to the ground, he was stunned.

Jiang Li stood in a daze. When he saw the golden projection not far away, his heart skipped a beat.

He thought to himself, did this Demon Subduing Pagoda actually have a tracking function? Then, wouldn't his tracks below be seen clearly?

He did not dare to speak first.

Fortunately, Shenshan Qiuhua's words made him feel at ease.

”Senior Brother Jiang Li, you're really too impressive. You actually really reached the fifth level of the Demon Subduing Pagoda! That's something that no disciple from Shu Mountain has been able to do in the past hundreds of years!”

So they had only noticed that he reached the fifth level? Jiang Li heaved a sigh of relief without leaving a trace, and he instantly understood in his heart that it was definitely the Earth Spirit that had made preparations in advance to prevent him from being exposed.

The other sword cultivator disciples by the side praised him successively, whereas Jiang Li was modest and only said that he was lucky.

”Jiang Li, your talent is extraordinary. The last person who could achieve this was our current generation's Sword Head, Shenshan Jianyi.”

When Jiang Li heard this name, he glanced at Shenshan Qiuhua. That was her grandfather.

Shenshan Qiuhua's eyes were filled with worship. In her eyes, if he could do the same thing as her grandfather, wouldn't Jiang Li be as powerful as him?

Originally, there was no standard for this level, but with an impressive predecessor as a comparison, it was different.

The Shu Mountain Sword Head was the number one combatant on the surface of the Great Mountain Region.

Jiang Li had accomplished the same thing as the other party. Didn't that mean that his future would be like Shenshan Jianyi, standing at the peak of the cultivation world of the Great Mountain Region?

Jiang Li just did not know what their expressions would be like if they knew that he had actually already reached the eighth level and obtained the Spirit Essences of the entire nine levels.

After the Demon Subduing Pagoda trial, these ten Shu Mountain disciples still had to start Foundation Establishment.

Peak Master Wei naturally did his best to invite Jiang Li to build his foundation in the Shu Mountain mystic realm with them.

However, Jiang Li firmly rejected it.

He already had his own plans for the Foundation Establishment's location.

.....

Riding the Wood Dragon Rayquaza, Jiang Li flew high in the sky until he could no longer see the towering Five Elements Peak behind him.

He patted the wooden dragon beneath him. Rayquaza immediately understood what he meant. It turned its head and crashed into a cloud beside it. Then, the huge wooden dragon disappeared.

In the cloud, the Nine Nether clone had been waiting for a long time.

The Yin Burial Coffin swelled up in front of him, and Jiang Li rode the wooden dragon into the coffin.

After obtaining the Earth Spirit Blessing, everything in his body that was already filled to the extreme began to stir. He had already reached the limit before breaking through and could no longer suppress it.

The spatial artifact, Yin Burial Coffin, was in a similar state like him.

Jiang Li had invested countless materials and spiritual objects into this artifact, and it had already arrived at the critical point before breaking through. After the last push, it would be able to reach a new height.

After entering the coffin space that he had not seen for a long time, the interior of the space had changed drastically compared to before.

Not to mention the expansion of space, this coffin was almost changing every day.

However, unlike the originally relatively empty space, there was a layer of spirit stones, spirit mines, and a large number of high-grade spiritual materials on the bottom of the Yin Burial Space.

There were really no fake goods. The floor was full of them.

He had even bought an extremely expensive Bloodsucking Wood Tree.

With the income of Green Mountain Residence during this period of time, together with robbing the Hundred Tempering Mountain and some other transactions, he gathered a considerable amount of wealth during this period of time. Now, it was all piled up in the Yin Burial Coffin.

In addition, in the center of the coffin space was an inverted ancient tree, the Nine Nether Wood.

In the deepest corner of the coffin, there was a huge corpse with three heads and six arms sitting on the skeleton throne. Its entire body was filled with a chaotic aura.
