Chapter 58 Perfect Foundation Building
When the mother and daughter returned to Zhijian Peak, it was time for lunch.

During the year that Zhou Ling was in seclusion in the stone chamber, Zhou Li learned many new dishes from the immortal chefs in the immortal world. She wanted her daughter to try every new dish first.

Therefore, she was very grateful for a good thing in the world of immortal cultivation, called the forbidden talisman.

It was usually used to preserve immortal herbs and elixirs, but Zhou Li used it to preserve dishes. He put the freshly cooked dishes into the jade box, affixed the forbidden talisman, and sealed it inside, so that it would not lose its deliciousness.

While eating the fasting pills in the stone chamber, Zhou Ling didn't feel anything. After all, he had no time to care whether the pills tasted good or not. He just knew that after putting one pill into his stomach, he wouldn't feel hungry anymore. He could also close his eyes and practice for several hours. It didn't take much time, so it was a good thing.

But during these days out of seclusion, the sumptuous meals fed by her mother made the years when she was eating the fasting pills seem pitiful and depressing.

"Slow down, I'm choking and feeling uncomfortable."

Zhou Li lovingly put the meat into her daughter's bowl with a gentle smile on her face, but she was thinking in her heart that this little girl was very clever, and when they faced each other on the ring, should she give her some time to show her strength, or just throw her off the stage?

Zhou Ling's mouth was full of oil and her cheeks were bulging with food, but for some reason, when she accidentally raised her eyes and met her mother's eyes, she always felt a little uneasy in her heart.

"Mom, your cooking skills have improved so much. When you first started learning cooking from that fairy chef, I could barely distinguish the taste of your dishes, but now, you can really rival the fairy chef! If you set up a stall outside, it will definitely be very popular!" She had to find a topic to talk about.

The mother and daughter also set up a snack stand in the outer market of the Holy Fruit Sect. At that time, the mother's cooking skills were already very popular. In addition, she was young and cute at the time, and she was able to attract business. The money she earned was enough to spend, and she could occasionally receive some low-grade spirit stones. Her life was very comfortable.

If there had not been that great war between the Infant-Devouring Sect and the Holy Fruit Sect, the mother and daughter would have had a pretty good life hiding under the protection of the Immortal Cultivation Sect at the foot of the mountain. At least they would have had no problem spending a hundred years in peace. But they were so unlucky!

However... after the Taoist competition, she and her mother would both have completed their foundation building and would be driven out of the sect to gain experience.

If there is no major event in the sect, the time spent away from home for training generally ranges from twenty to a hundred years.

As an honest person who tried her best to survive, she discussed with her mother and decided to choose the lower limit of twenty years for the training. They would go out together and take care of each other, and they would feel more at ease in completing the task of this training.

During the process of training outside the sect, the sect forbids the master to give too much money. The main purpose is to let the disciples go out to practice hard and travel on the road, experience the sufferings of the world, and know that the opportunity to practice and live forever is not easy.

Therefore, as far as money is concerned, the mother and daughter can continue with their old business and set up a small stall wherever they go to earn some spirit stones, which should be fine.

The mother and daughter each had their own thoughts, but after thinking about it, they were both most satisfied with the results, so they smiled at each other.

Zhou Li pinched her daughter's little nose.

"After eating, go get the foundation-building pill?"

"Okay, but mother, I have no experience in building the foundation. Can you tell me about your experience?" Zhou Ling's belly was so round that he was reluctant to use his spiritual power to digest the food. He had to put down his chopsticks and pester his mother to listen to her experience.

"It will come naturally."

Zhou Li’s answer was brief and concise. In two words, it was spot on!
"Good job, Ms. Julie. You have learned to use idioms. Very good." Zhou Ling wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and gave her mother a big thumbs up.

"I know a lot. This is a piece of cake." Zhou Li tilted his head slightly gracefully and raised his chin with a little pride. However, he was praised by his daughter and could not suppress the smile on his lips. He could not be serious for a second.

“Hahaha…” Zhou Ling was touched by her mother’s proud and cute expression. She laughed twice and almost laughed out the delicious food she had eaten.

But my mother's conclusion was correct, it was a natural progression. In the world of immortal cultivation, there are two ways to build a foundation.

First, when one has reached a certain level of cultivation, one should take the foundation-building pill to catalyze the circulation of spiritual energy in the body, thereby reaching the state of foundation-building and completing the foundation-building process.

Second, when one has reached a certain level of cultivation but refuses to take the foundation-building pill, as my mother said, things will come naturally when the spiritual power grows to a certain level, and the cultivator's comprehension and body are naturally compatible. After the spiritual power in the body reaches the limit of the Qi Refining period, it will naturally transform into a foundation-building state. One only needs to meditate and practice in the normal way to circulate the spiritual power, and the spiritual power will naturally complete the foundation-building in the Dantian, thus achieving a perfect foundation.

Although there is not much difference between the former and the latter in the initial stage, the latter will be smoother than the former in terms of future practice.

Who wouldn’t want to build a perfect foundation?

Zhou Ling suddenly thought of something and looked up at her mother.

"Mom, why is your experience so natural? Are you... are you building a perfect foundation!?"

"Ah."

Zhou Li nodded slightly.

"Perfect foundation building, the effect is better. If possible, you can suppress your cultivation and not take foundation building pills, and you can also build a perfect foundation."

Just now she asked whether she wanted to get the foundation-building pill after eating. In fact, she wanted to persuade her daughter not to get it. According to her experience, when her cultivation level was at the same level as her daughter's current level, she had already touched the threshold of foundation-building. Later, she also wanted to try the perfect foundation-building that only very few people could succeed in. So she dragged her feet and did not take the foundation-building pill. She practiced in the yard without sleep for more than ten days, and then she felt like she was going to build a foundation.

So if you want to achieve great things, there is only one word: diligence.

Her daughter was so diligent that in the early days, in order to catch up with the progress of her fellow disciples, she didn't have a proper meal for many days in a row. She just drank porridge and spent all her time studying and practicing. She was busy like a top, but her strength improved rapidly.

She was able to build a perfect foundation by learning from her daughter. If her daughter takes it seriously, she will only be stronger than her.

"But now the competition is approaching and time is too tight. With my qualifications, can I really make it?"

Who doesn't have some ambition? In fact, when she first heard about this method of perfect foundation building, she thought that when she builds her foundation in the future, she might as well try this method first. If it doesn't work, then she can take the foundation building pill again. It won't take too long anyway.

"You, go to the stone chamber and retreat for another fifteen days. After fifteen days, the competition will officially begin. If you succeed, you will be assigned to the foundation-building group. If you fail, you will be assigned to the Qi-refining group. It's not a loss at all."

Even though her daughter had entered the foundation-building group and there was a possibility that the mother and daughter would face off in the arena, Zhou Li still believed in her daughter and believed that she could achieve the perfect foundation-building goal in seclusion for fifteen days.

"it is good!"

Zhou Ling is a person who listens to advice. After embarking on the path of immortality, although she had such poor talent, she has always persisted with the idea that hard work can make up for one's shortcomings. If she had not had enough confidence in herself at the beginning, she would not have been able to get to this point today.

Now that the situation has come to this, if she doesn't give it a try, she will be letting down all her previous efforts.

Even if he advances to the foundation building stage, in this Taoist competition, a young and newly-formed person in the early stage of foundation building will probably not go too far, and may even have difficulty making it into the top ten, but!
She can compete with her fellow brothers and sisters in the foundation building stage in the arena again! This is more valuable than the top ten in the Qi Refining stage!

After being in seclusion for so long, she really hasn't fought for a long time. Just thinking about getting on the ring, she will be able to fight with monks with higher cultivation than herself, and seek progress in the battle, she feels itchy!
