Chapter 257: Cultivator Establishes Dao Anew

Li Fan did not care much about the fact that Ye Feipeng likely had a spiritual beast bloodline inheritance in his body.

Because this also belonged to a type of talent.

Li Fan couldn't take any reference from it.

However, he became interested in Ye Feipeng's dual Foundation Treasure in his Dantian.

Li Fan could be considered as half a true Foundation Establishment Grandmaster, yet he had never heard of a cultivator being able to establish a second foundation using another Heavenly Treasure after the initial Foundation Establishment.

How did Ye Feipeng achieve this?

Was it related to his unique bloodline?

Observing through the Vision of Heaven and Earth, Li Fan carefully observed the peacefully sleeping Ye Feipeng.

The Green Wind True Intent Foundation Treasure and the Canghai Pearl Foundation Treasure coexisted peacefully in the body of the fatty.

They were completely harmonious.

Even after watching for a long time, Li Fan couldn't figure out the underlying principles.

Out of habit, he searched in the Tianxuan Mirror.

As expected, he found no relevant information.

However, this result only strengthened Li Fan's belief that there might indeed be a method to establish dual Foundation Treasures.

Perhaps the secrecy level was extremely high; otherwise, it wouldn't be so bad that there wouldn't even be a single word of discussion about it.

"Dual Foundation Treasures..."

"Could there be multiple foundations?"

Li Fan's interest in this matter was not because he desired to establish a second foundation using other Heavenly Treasures.

[Truth] could transform into all the Heavenly Treasures in the world.

If there was a rare and extraordinary Heavenly Treasure that Li Fan wanted to make his own, he could directly absorb it and then transform it with [Truth]. No need for unnecessary steps.

What Li Fan truly desired was a method for two or even more Foundation Treasures to coexist in his body.

Currently, when [Truth] transformed into a Heavenly Treasure, it could only display one at a time.

Whether it was the Canghai Pearl or the Seven Aperture Exquisite Heart, [Truth] could only change sequentially; simultaneous coexistence was impossible.

If [Truth] could transform into two or more Heavenly Treasures simultaneously...

Aside from the many other possibilities, his combat power would have a significant leap at the very least.

Unable to find results through searching, Li Fan began to leverage his personal connections.

Li Fan messaged his friends inquiring about the matter of dual Foundation Treasures.

He expected it to take a long time to get answers, but surprisingly, replies came quickly.

It was the Oracle from Tianyun Province, whom he got to know through Ling Xiao's legacy.

"Is Junior inquiring about dual Foundation Treasures because you found some high-grade Heavenly Treasure and want to establish a new foundation?"

Seeing that the Oracle was clearly well-informed, Li Fan replied promptly, "Senior, you misunderstood. I just happened to see a cultivator with a dual Foundation Treasure and asked out of curiosity."

The Oracle remained silent for a moment before saying, "I see."

"I still owe Junior a favor. The matter of dual Foundation Treasures is not a top-secret, so I can tell you."

"But Junior, keep it to yourself. Don't spread it unnecessarily to avoid trouble."

Li Fan immediately responded, "Junior understands."

The Oracle then said, "How much does Junior know about Heavenly Treasures?"

"A little. They are divided into Human Treasure, Earthly Treasure, and Celestial Treasure. Human Treasures seem to be formed by the transformation of cultivators who died thousands of years ago..." Li Fan explained some basic knowledge.

"Correct. Cultivators use Heavenly Treasures to establish Foundation Treasures. Subsequently, the condensation of the Golden Core, the formation of the Nascent Soul, and even the transformation of the soul are closely related to one's Foundation Treasure."

"But the quality of Heavenly Treasures varies. If a cultivator begins Foundation Establishment during a period of hardship and poverty, they might have to choose a middle or even low-grade Human Treasure to establish their foundation."

"Let's say that later, through a fortuitous encounter, fate turned around for them, and they continued to cultivate until reaching the Soul Transformation realm."

"Their low-quality Foundation Treasure became incompatible with their powerful cultivation."

"It became a 'flaw' in their cultivation. What should one do in such a situation?"

"Shatter the Foundation Treasure and rebuild it? With the Tai Shang Primordial Scripture, one can preserve the majority of their cultivation."

"However, the higher the cultivation level, the more time is needed for re-cultivation. Furthermore, the longer one has cultivated, the more firmly rooted the Foundation Treasure becomes."

"Recklessly shattering the Foundation Treasure can also pose a life-threatening danger."

Hearing this, Li Fan pondered, "So, is this method of establishing a new foundation used by high-level cultivators to eliminate the flaws in their foundation?"

The Oracle nodded, "This method is called 'Establish Dao Anew.' After establishing a new foundation, not only does one's cultivation and magical power remain unaffected, but the new foundation can gradually devour and replace the original one.

"This silently completes the transformation, rectifying all previous flaws."

With the Oracle's explanation, Li Fan completely understood.

To give an inappropriate analogy, the original foundation was like a wife who had endured the hardships of cultivating with the cultivator, overcoming the early stages of Foundation Establishment and Golden Core.

However, as the cultivator soared to the greater heights of the Nascent Soul and Soul Transformation realms, they started to feel that their humble wife was not worthy of them. Thus, they planned to replace their wife.

But the wife had walked through hardships together with the cultivator.

Suddenly divorcing her would not only be emotionally difficult for the cultivator, but it would also draw criticism from others.

They could only proceed slowly, first taking a concubine and then finding an opportunity to promote the concubine to the main wife.

What Li Fan wanted was a way for the wife and the concubine to peacefully coexist. So, he asked the Oracle about it.

Since the Oracle was planning to help, there was no pretense.

He immediately transmitted the method of 'Establish Dao Anew.'

Li Fan was overjoyed and expressed his gratitude.

As he eagerly read the profound content of the technique, the Oracle suddenly sighed, "Speaking of which, this method of 'Establish Dao Anew' was created by a cultivator named Chen Shimei from our Tianyun Province."

"This person was truly ruthless, and was willing to use any means for further cultivation."

"Just because the Foundation Treasure of the other party might be more suitable for oneself, he actually forcibly refined his Dao companion who had accompanied him for hundreds of years from the humblest of beginnings."

Li Fan, immersed in the mysteries of the technique, was startled by this revelation. He had almost forgotten that anything in this realm could be turned into a Foundation Treasure.

The slightly mocking voice of the Oracle sounded again, "Unfortunately, his luck wasn't good. The news leaked, and he angered a powerful female cultivator."

"He wasn't just skinned alive; even his consciousness was extracted and transferred to a black dog."

"Every day he suffers bullying from the other beasts. It's a fate worse than death."

"Hehe, if Junior comes to our Tianyun Province for a visit, perhaps you can still see him..."

"To please this powerful female cultivator, many cultivators bring ferocious beasts to queue up and torment Chen Shimei."

Even just thinking about it sent a shiver down Li Fan's spine. 

A woman's wickedness was not weaker than a man's at all.

"While Chen Shimei's character might be despicable, the technique itself is not bad."

"But judging by Senior's words, this technique could bring trouble?"

"Why is that?"
