Chapter 288: Foundation Establishment Tide (2)

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

As for righteousness, perhaps only those cultivators who guarded the Two Realm Abyss all year round were truly righteous.

The Qianyuan Sword Sect must have done this because their strength was somewhat inferior or for other reasons that Chen Daoxuan did not know.

Otherwise, they would not have used the power of the three states to suppress the passage of the True Demon Realm in Tai Zhou.

He thought about it.

Chen Daoxuan raised his head and looked at his clansmen.””Where is the military minister?”

“Your subordinate is here!”

In the hall, Chen Fusheng, who had been silent all this while, stood up and replied loudly.

Seeing Chen Fusheng, Chen Daoxuan’s eyes were filled with satisfaction.

Long before he went to the Demonic Ape Mountain for closed-door cultivation, Chen Fusheng had already reached the peak of the Aura Refining realm. Now, after a year, not only had Chen Fusheng successfully built his foundation, but he had also completed the transformation of his cultivation technique.

However, due to the lack of body refining resources, Chen Fusheng’s body refining cultivation had yet to break through to the Flesh Derivation Realm.

Even so.

With Chen Fusheng’s state, his strength was probably no weaker than Chen Daoxuan’s when he had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

It was even possible that he was even more powerful, because when Chen Daoxuan had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment, he did not have any suitable magic tools.

However, Chen Fusheng was different. Before he had even broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, Chen Daoxuan had already given him a Level Three Upper Grade magic item.

With the support of a Level Three high-grade magic tool and the Zhen Yuan that had been tempered twice, although Chen Fusheng had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment realm, the strength of his Zhen Yuan was probably comparable to Chen Daoxuan’s.

Chen Daoxuan himself had only reached the limit of true essence when he was at the third layer of the foundation establishment realm. In comparison, Chen Fusheng was not far behind.

This was also the perverse aspect of Swordsmen.

How could an ordinary cultivator’s strength increase so much after reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm?

“Chen Fusheng, how many Foundation Establishment Cultivators do we have in the military?”

” There are a total of 367 cultivators in the Military Department, including me,” Chen Fusheng replied without hesitation.” Among them, 214 are Aura Refining cultivators and 153 are Foundation Building cultivators.”

Hearing this, a hint of doubt flashed across Chen Dao’s eyes.

He had established the military headquarters to select and nurture the elite disciples of the family.

In essence, it was not much different from the elite disciples of other cultivation families. The only difference was that the Chen family invested more resources.

However, after so many years, there were not many cultivators in the Chen family’s military who had built their foundation. Logically speaking, if even Chen Fusheng had successfully built his foundation, the other cultivators in the military should have built their foundation earlier.

In order to comprehend the sword intent at the Qi Condensation Stage, Chen Fusheng had actually wasted some time at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

If not for that, Chen Fusheng would have already reached the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Even though these Foundation Building cultivators of the military were all new talents who had just built their foundation, they were still in the military.

However, they were notweak.

This was especially true for the group of Chen family’s swordsmanship class cultivators who often listened to Chen Daoxuan’s sermons. Almost all of them had broken through to the foundation establishment stage.

Not only that.

There were also six people who comprehended sword intent after breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm and became sword cultivators.

In other words, the Chen Family had a total of eight Swordsmen.

Other than Chen Daoxuan and Chen Fusheng, the other sword xiu had only gone through one round of tempering and were not as abnormal as Chen Daoxuan and Chen Fusheng.

His Sword Dao realm was far from Chen Daoxuan and Chen Fusheng’s.

However, once a cultivator became a sword cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage, their combat strength would directly reach the ceiling of the Foundation Establishment stage.

No matter how much an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator cultivated, they would never be a match for a sword cultivator who had both True Essence and cultivation.

Perhaps when one’s cultivation reached a higher level, this gap would slowly close.

However, in the Foundation Establishment and Zifu levels, sword cultivators often represented invincibility among those of the same level.

After hearing Chen Fusheng’s report, the other higher-ups of the Chen Family were also eager to try.

When Chen Daoxuan first established the Military Department, he said that from now on, the protection of the family’s martial arts would be handed over to the military cultivators.

However, the other cultivators of the Chen family did not slack off.

Even if they didn’t care about their family’s safety, they had to do their best to increase their strength for their own Dao path.

Before cultivators reached the Golden Core realm, they could still rely on the accumulation of resources to improve their cultivation.

However, the Golden Core Lightning Tribulation was not something that could be overcome by relying on resources.

One had to rely on the cultivator’s own strength.

Now that the Chen Clan was thriving, they had no lack of cultivation resources. If their path of Dao was not smooth, it would be their own fault.

No one wanted to fall behind in this situation.

Even if Chen Daoxuan did not ask them to cultivate diligently, no one dared to slack off.

This kind of situation was something Chen Daoxuan had not expected.

When he first established the military, he wanted the talented cultivators of the Chen family to focus all their energy on cultivation.

He did not expect that this move would not only not make the other clansmen give up on cultivation, but it would also stimulate their fighting spirit.

After a careful observation, Chen Daoxuan realized that everyone in the hall was actually Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Chen Daoxuan wasn’t surprised that the cultivators of the Dao generation had successfully built their foundation.

However, Chen Daoxuan did not expect so many of them to succeed.

Chen Daoxuan knew very well that for these cultivators of the Fu generation to be able to build their foundation in such a short period of time, even with the Chen family’s almost extravagant supply of resources, they had put in far more effort than ordinary people.

Seeing this…

Chen Daoxuan turned to look at the Minister of Finance, Chen Daolan, who had temporarily taken over the family affairs after he went into seclusion. He asked,”Dao Lian, how many cultivators does our Chen Clan have now? How many Foundation Establishment Cultivators are there?”

“Young Clan Leader,”

Chen Daolan stood up,”My Chen Family currently has one Immortal cultivator, 11 Dao cultivators, and 5746 Fu cultivators. There are a total of 5758 cultivators..
