Chapter 191: Foundation Building
Ding Huan was now very thin and bony, and there was only one question lingering in his mind.

How to ensure that your foundation does not limit the heights of your future spiritual practice.

He fused genetic spiritual roots to practice Taoism. Is this spiritual root different from ordinary spiritual roots?
At the beginning, he integrated the injury recovery gene, the poison removal gene, and the eye of delusion...

Ding Huan was suddenly stunned. Didn’t he solve this problem before?
He once thought that no matter which genetic ability was fused, the fused genetic ability would be fixed at the level when he obtained it.

As his cultivation level improved, this ability was no longer sufficient.

In order to solve this problem, he dissolved useless gene fragments and found the gene fragments with abilities he needed, which were the alien gene ability fragments.

Fragmenting the alien gene's abilities into its own skills is not simply relying on the alien gene's innate abilities.

Instead, through the expression of foreign genes, this genetic ability is transformed into one's own attribute ability.

He also succeeded and produced a completely new gene.

This new gene is his own genetic ability, which will be improved as his cultivation level improves.

Otherwise, how could he rely on the anti-toxin genes of the common white-faced rough-tailed monkey to fight against the phantom poison of Hanba?

This is because the anti-toxin gene in his body is no longer the anti-toxin gene of the white-faced rough-tailed ape, but his own detoxification gene, which improves as his strength increases.

In this case, the foundation he has laid can also refer to this method.

The goal is to build such a foundation, and this foundation must become more solid as his cultivation level improves.

You must never let all the improvements in the later stages be placed on the foundation you built in the early stages. If you do so, no matter how deep the foundation you have built is, it will eventually collapse one day.

Then how can he improve the foundation he has built as his cultivation level increases?
No, it should be that every time he practices, his foundation improves.

He is different from others, he has genetic roots...

Genetic roots?

If that's the case, why does he insist on the ordinary people's way of cultivation? What does refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit have to do with him?
He just needs to make his genetic roots stronger and stronger, and his skills must also be compatible with his genetic roots.

The fusion of the anti-toxic gene of the white-faced rough-tailed monkey allowed him to generate a detoxification gene, and the fusion of the recovery gene of the salamander allowed him to recover from injuries more effectively...

But he can't always think about fusing various genes to improve his own gene types and abilities, right?
How many genes are there in the vast universe?
If he extracted every gene, even if the extraction speed of one gene was only one minute, he was afraid that he would never be able to finish extracting all the genes.

Then, could he create a technique that could be practiced anywhere, and as long as the place had the genes he needed, he could choose to integrate it or not?
It was like opening Pandora's box. When Ding Huan thought of this, endless genetic knowledge and cultivation methods filled his mind.

Even with such a strong will, Ding Huan felt dizzy from the influx of information.

It was unknown how long it had been, but when Ding Huan spurted out a stream of blood, he finally came to his senses.

Rubbing his still groggy head, Ding Huan swallowed a handful of energy capsules.

He doesn't have the fasting pills now and can only rely on energy capsules.

No, this cannot go on.

It would be absolutely impossible to realize his idea by simply relying on the Luoshijing.

The reason is very simple. For Ding Huan now, the Luoshi Sutra is too restrictive and cannot accommodate his imaginative ideas at all.

He must have a broader platform for his practice and then let his ideas blossom and bear fruit on this platform.

Even if billions of genes were integrated, his martial arts platform would not collapse.

There is only one such vast and boundless platform for practicing martial arts, and that is the vast universe.

No matter how many genes, no matter how many species, no matter how many lives there are, they are all in this vast universe.

As long as one day he does not step on this vast universe, his skills will never end and his foundation will never collapse.

Ding Huan's spiritual consciousness was tempered in the vast and boundless universe.

At this moment, he thought of the vast universe again, and wanted to find the foundation and direction of his own path in this boundless universe.

The cosmic map that I had spent two years refining my divine consciousness in appeared in my mind, from blurry to clear, and then to a layered sense...

In this vast universe, he is like a speck of dust.

The moment a speck of dust appeared in his consciousness, Ding Huan felt a clear map of the starry sky emerge in his mind.

Yes, he is stardust now.

Start practicing from dust.

The first step on his great road is stardust, which wanders in the vast universe.

If he wanted to stop wandering in the vast universe, he had to make himself, a stardust, bigger and stronger, and become a nebula.

At this moment, Ding Huan seemed to have transformed into a newborn universe.

His blood, flesh, bones, even hair and breath, are all in this vast universe.

"The great square has no boundaries, the great vessel is full of bamboo, the great sound is silent, the great image has no form, the Tao is hidden and nameless..."

(It means that the universe is boundless, the starry sky is like a bamboo vessel, the stars in the sky are silent and invisible, and there are infinite mysteries and cosmic laws hidden in it... From the Tao Te Ching.)

Ding Huan unconsciously felt the first Zhoutian line. At this moment, he was the universe, his Zhoutian was the universe Zhoutian, and the Taoism he felt was the law of the universe that belonged to him...

At the end of the first week, that mysterious feeling disappeared instantly.

Ding Huan opened his eyes excitedly, he knew he was in the wrong place. The Stardust Realm he deduced was equivalent to the Qi Refining Stage, and the Nebula Realm he deduced was what others called the Foundation Establishment Stage.

He takes the vast universe as the foundation of his great way. As long as the universe exists, no matter how high his cultivation level rises, his foundation will not collapse.

Ding Huan stood up. He had to leave Xifeng City and find a place to build his foundation.

Compared to before, he knew exactly where he was going.

That is in the vast starry sky. He wants to transform his Luoshijing through the new technique and change the Qi Refining Stage into the Stardust Stage.

As long as he creates the nebula, his vast universe will have a prototype, which means that he has successfully established his foundation.

"Brother Huan, you finally came out..."

Yan Mei looked at Ding Huan who came out and stopped talking halfway through.
After several breaths, he stammered, "Brother Huan, how did you become like this?"

When others go into seclusion, not only their cultivation level improves, but their spirit also improves.

Ding Huan was in seclusion for several months, and when he came out it looked like he had been smoking the joy branch for several months.

He is even thinner than Peng Leizhi, with messy hair. Even if he has been smoking the joy stick for several months, he shouldn't be like this, right?
"How long have I been in seclusion?" Ding Huan didn't care at all.

He even felt that his retreat in the past few months would determine the height of his life.

"It's been more than three months. By the way, Nurong came to look for you more than once during this period."

Almost as soon as Yan Mei's voice fell, a woman's voice came from outside:

"Captain Yan, may I ask if Fellow Daoist Ding has come out of confinement?"

Ding Huan laughed:
"Sister Rong, I'm just out of quarantine, please come in."

Nu Rong heard Ding Huan's voice and stepped into the yard eagerly. When she saw Ding Huan's appearance, she was even more shocked than Yan Mei:
"Friend Ding, what are you doing..."

Ding Huan waved his hand:

"I have to go out for something. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Nurong said quickly:

"I went to Zhenyun Dao City and found that there was a sect looking for you there. It seemed to be the Shuanghun Sect."

Hearing this, Yan Mei shuddered subconsciously.

The Shuanghun Sect is the sect he fears the most.

Ding Huan nodded:
"Thank you very much. Since they have set their sights on Zhenyun Dao City, it means that they will not be able to find Xifeng City in a short period of time."

"Well, I came here to talk to you about this." Nu Rong said and wanted to say goodbye.

Ding Huan asked:
"Sister Rong, I would also like to ask if there is an easy way to leave the Triple Star Continent and go to the starry sky?"

The slave was startled, then said:

“There are many places in the Taoist world that lead to the starry sky, but these places are all controlled by sects or certain forces, and ordinary people cannot enter.

Some chambers of commerce can enter the starry sky through the mortal world, but it is a bit difficult for people like us to go to the starry sky from the Taoist world..."

At this point, she seemed to remember something and said quickly:

“Fellow Daoist Ding, I remember telling you before that there is a rumor that there is a vortex in Cangjian Mountain that connects to the starry sky.

It's just that there are many rumors about this matter, and no one has confirmed it. Moreover, Cangjian Mountain is now shrouded in poisonous fog all year round, and it is impossible to enter."

Ding Huan's eyes lit up and he quickly thanked him again.

Nu Rong also chatted for a few words and then said goodbye. The main purpose of her coming here was to remind Ding Huan that the Shuanghun Sect was looking for him.

She admired Ding Huan very much. She also guessed that the reason why Ding Huan appeared in Xifeng City was probably because of his poor qualifications.

Otherwise, with Ding Huan's abilities and means, he would have already been a disciple of a large sect.

She came here to report the news, firstly because she wanted to make friends with Ding Huan, and secondly because she didn't want someone like Ding Huan to be taken away by the Shuanghun Sect.

"Brother Huan, are you going to leave the Triple Star Continent?" Yan Mei asked nervously.

"You have done a good job. Not only have you managed West Wind City very well, but your cultivation has also reached the fourth level of Qi training.

I'll go to Cangjian Mountain first. If I can leave, I'll come back to pick you and Lao Liu up. If I don't come back to pick you up, just wait for me here." Ding Huan was very satisfied with Yan Mei.

Yan Mei was overjoyed: "Thank you, Brother Huan."

Ding Huan patted Yan Mei:

"Don't worry, the Twin Soul Sect will never be able to find this place in a short period of time. They will never even think that we are in such a low-level city."

"I'm just worried that someone went to Zhenyun Dao City like Sister Rong, and they told the Shuanghun Sect about us." Yan Mei said worriedly.

Ding Huan nodded: "This possibility exists, but it is definitely not high. Sister Rong is in the real estate business, and with our help, she has a lot of crystals.

How many ordinary people living here are qualified to go to Zhenyun Dao City?"
