C4 The Foundation

After leaving River-Crossing Bridge, Garrett did not intend to return home directly. Instead, he walked slowly along the river bank.

"No wonder there are no cultivators on Earth. The spiritual energy here is too weak, reaching the point of drying up. With this level of spiritual energy, it will be difficult for me to push my cultivation level to the Spirit Concentration."

Garrett sighed as he felt the sparse and negligible energy around him. He then arrived at a place where the spiritual energy was slightly denser, sitting down cross-legged and looked at the leisurely flowing water of the Chazim River.

"During my cultivation journey in my previous life, I made great progress. I even broke through by force in order to compete with those few geniuses, causing my foundation to be not as solid. Furthermore, I still don't have a good understanding of humans' hearts, causing the internal demon to invade into my heart and died during the cultivation."

"Since Heaven has given me a chance to be reborn, then in this life, I'll make up for all the regrets I had in my previous life, breaking through to the Great Tribulation and check out the scenery above the Tribulation Crossing Stage!"

The chilly river appeared crystal clear as the breeze was whistling.

Garrett, who had just been reborn, was filled with aspiration.

Although he had lost his magic power and was no longer the aloof and mighty Immortal Sovereign, he had never been as happy as he was today.

My parents, Sloane and all my good friends are safe. In this life, I must protect them with all I have.

So what if I lose my magic power?

So what if I have a mortal body?

I'm an Immortal Sovereign in my past life, even if my power is drained, it can't stop me from ascending to the heavens!

At the same time, Garrett gave a deep thought about the cultivation technique he should cultivate. This was because, in his past life, the cultivation technique he had chosen was too complicated, and lastly, he thought about combining all techniques into one and created his own path. However, relying on his invincible cultivation level was not enough. Now, Garrett had finally understood that only with a solid foundation would one be able to reach the realm of combining all the techniques!

"The Void Refining Spell from the Ethereal Sect is the strongest cultivation technique among the Spirit Concentration Stage. It has both the effect of Qi Refining and Body Tempering which are the strongest basic cultivation technique! In my previous life, I looked down on this cultivation technique, but in the end, it has proven me wrong! Before reaching the Spirit Concentration, I want to cultivate the Void Refining Spell and after that, I'll try to cultivate the techniques I've created in my previous life together with those few strongest techniques!"

In his past life, although Garrett hadn't truly achieved the unification of all techniques, he had created a supreme cultivation technique. It was just that this cultivation technique was too dangerous. Only after reaching the Spirit Concentration Stage would Garrett dare to try his own cultivation technique.

After a deep thought, the Void Refining Spell suddenly appeared in Garrett's mind. He had a root with qualities of ice and fire, thus, he had a strong sense of water-type spiritual energy. This made Chazim River be beneficial towards his cultivation.

As Garrett put his palms together, bits of blue starlight floated out from the surface of the river like blue fireflies and gradually fused into Garrett's body.

The night was cold, he sat cross-legged by the river, as if he had turned into an Azure statue.

As time passed by, Garrett gradually felt a warm sensation appear within his body. It was as if a warm current was flowing in his veins, all pores on his body had opened up and were greedily devouring the energy around, causing Garrett to let out a long roar uncontrollably.

The cultivation tier was divided into eight major realms — Foundation Stage, Essence Splitting, Core Formation, Spirit Concentration, and Deification, Void Refining, Dao Formation, and Tribulation Crossing. Each major realm consisted of early, middle, late, and perfection, four minor realms.

In Garrett's past life, his cultivation level had reached the Great Perfection of the Tribulation Crossing, and he had already passed the eighth level of the Nine-Level Heavenly Tribulation. Unfortunately, he had died during the last Great Tribulation.

At this moment, the water blue substances in Garrett's energetic center were the first Qi that Garrett had cultivated!

This strand of Qi, which was as thin as a strand of hair, symbolized that Garrett had truly stepped into the door of cultivation, becoming an early Foundation Stage cultivator!

"The Void Refining Spell is indeed worthy of being the most exquisite Immortal Art in the Spirit Concentration Stage! In my past life, I'd used seven days and nights to successfully break through to the Foundation Stage, but now I've only taken only an hour!"

He couldn't help but feel slightly agitated, because the Void Refining Spell was indeed too overbearing.

At this moment, Garrett suddenly felt his entire body heating up, and his pores were completely opened.

Garrett knew this feeling very well, it was clearly the effect of the body tempering that would only happen when the cultivation level reached the Essence Splitting!

"No wonder everyone said that this cultivation technique has a combination of Qi Refining and the body tempering effect. Anyone who has just stepped into the Foundation Stage will be able to enjoy the wondrous benefits of the Essence Splitting! Then today, I'll undergo the body tempering transcendence by the Chazim River."

Immediately after Garrett laughed heartily, he stripped off his outfits, taking two-step and sat cross-legged in the turbulent Chazim River!

At the same time, the pale blue light formed in the water, and the air surged into Garrett's body in an even more rapid manner. At this moment, Garrett was like a whirlpool, madly absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth.

The light particles showered on Garrett's body seemed to have covered him with a layer of blue armor, looking extremely dazzling.

As the Void Refining Spell kept circulating, Garrett's two broken ribs had been completely healed, and the spiritual energy he had lost was replenished too.

Following by the black particles fusing out from Garrett's body through his pores. These were all the impurities in Garrett's body, and was the benefit of the body tempering!

Now, Garrett's mortal body had started transforming into a spiritual body!

The night had passed quietly, just when the sun blooms on the horizon, golden petals stretching ever outwards into the rich blue, a naked youth walked along the river mightily with a pair of deep eyes filled with radiance.

Garrett's skin was originally tan, however, at this moment, his skin was as fair as snow. It was as if he was soaked in milk all day long.

Even his height had increased from around 1.7 meters to about 1.75 meters!

Although his appearance had not changed, his facial features were so delicate that even women would be jealous of him. The current Garrett had completely transformed into a handsome man.

After putting on his clothes, his gaze seemed to be projecting onto the largest private school in Whitehurst, Ormont Acad., across the sky.

He then whispered, "Blake, since you've hired someone to kill me, I'll definitely take revenge on you!"
