Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery-Chapter 251 - 240 The Taiqing Flying Sword Loses Interest_1

It's only because they were at the same school that everyone had some illusions, thinking they were almost the same as the others.

This illusion would rapidly disappear after graduation.

"Congratulations, Jiang Ding, the great Foundation-building cultivator."

An Siyan said softly.

"Great cultivator?"

"My mother told me that outside the realm, many people call Foundation-building cultivators that way."

An Siyan explained.

"Oh!"

Jiang Ding came to a realization, having been at Qingfeng University for so long, he subconsciously thought Foundation building was nothing special, a standard that everyone could have, even Li Qingyun had it.

Only now did he react that in many places, Foundation building was already the peak of power.

"Could you call me that again?"

"???"

An Siyan was stunned.

"Is that not okay?"

"It's fine."

An Siyan smiled.

"Great Foundation-building cultivator! Great Foundation-building cultivator! Great Foundation-building cultivator! Classmate Jiang Ding!"

"Hmm, classmate An Siyan is good."

Jiang Ding modestly responded with a hint of joy. It took him a long time to recover.

"By the way, I'm from Rongcheng City. My mom works in a steel factory, she's a worker. We've known each other for so long, yet I still don't know where your family is from?"

He asked.

In the past, it was always studying, cultivating, and there was a sense of urgency, without concern for anything else.

Now his lifespan extended to two hundred and fifty years, his mindset seemed to have become younger, truly reverting to his youthful days.

"My family..."

An Siyan fell silent.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to—"

"It's nothing."

An Siyan shook his head, the black-framed glasses swaying. "My great-grandfather was a Nascent Soul Monk who returned to the Xianmen Sect for a chance at divine transformation. He died in battle 327 years ago. My father and mother are Foundation-building cultivators... My family is located in the Jinhua District of Xiandu."

"Your grandfather was a hero."

Jiang Ding suddenly showed his respect, scanning briefly with Divine Sense before switching the topic away from this somewhat melancholic subject.

"You've been converting to a new cultivation method for quite some time now, and are almost at the 9th layer of Qi Practicing. When do you plan to go to the Yin-Yang Secret Realm to start foundation building?"

"Soon, probably another two or three months of polishing," An Siyan said, full of longing.

The two of them chatted as they flew, and soon arrived in the classroom. All the other students had already arrived, close to a hundred, with the rest either in seclusion or on leave.

Hum!

The Taiqing Flying Sword usually vibrated.

But it was just once.

It soon lost interest, vastly different from the usual incessant trembling.

An Tuzi suddenly turned around, staring intently at him.

"You built your—"

Swish!

Without any hesitation, he burst out all his mana, placed his hand on a silver shining talisman, and fled into the distance, his speed far exceeding the limit of a Qi Practitioner, much faster than even an average Mid-stage Foundation Building Cultivator.

Two genuine inheritors of the Five Elements Heavenly Sect, not knowing why, quickly followed.

The surrounding classmates were startled by him and looked their way.

```

"That, Dari Swordsman, fellow student Jiang Ding, Five Elements Heavenly Sect is an ally, you can't..."

Many students stopped short of finishing their sentence.

"I didn't do anything."

Jiang Ding looked confused.

"What is he doing?"

"What did I do again? Don't look at me with the kind of gaze you would give a terrorist."

The other students remained unconvinced.

"It's a misunderstanding, he sensed that fellow student Jiang Ding has reached foundation building."

An Siyan explained to the surrounding students, "Extra-terrestrial Immortal Sects, even among themselves, have considerable internal consumption, and it's not uncommon for them to be bloody. Their Taoist disciples are taught from a young age not to fully trust anyone, and at the same time, not to believe in any rules or laws."

"What they fully trust in is only their own strength."

"So, he believed that he was facing a life or death crisis, and his reaction was a bit exaggerated, but the misunderstanding will soon be cleared up."

"Foundation building, has Jiang Ding reached Jing-level foundation building?!"

The surrounding students were shocked.

"This is the first Jing-level foundation building of our cohort, isn't it? The Nascent Soul is promising."

"Alas, Jing-level Cultivation Method, maybe I should have persisted a bit longer, perhaps..."

Someone sighed with envy on their face, seemingly regretful.

"How did An Tuzi manage such a keen perception?"

Jiang Ding suddenly understood and frowned.

He was not someone who had just broken through and couldn't control his mana precisely, resulting in a leakage of Qi.

He had been refining his mana for two months.

In theory, because of his rank suppression and the use of Concealment Spells, An Tuzi absolutely should not have been able to discover him.

But he did discover him!

"Each of the Nine Great Immortal Sects has its own heritage."

"If there ever comes a day, this is the kind of person who should be killed on sight, without giving any chance."

A thought emerged in his mind and was firmly remembered.

Minutes later, An Tuzi returned, once again the elegant and gentle person he had been.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, congratulations on breaking through to foundation building, the foundation of the great Dao starts today."

An Tuzi congratulated him.

"Thank you."

Jiang Ding replied politely, "Looking at Fellow Daoist, I see a flourishing life force and flawless mana, with hints of the Cycle of Birth and Death of Five Elements; the day for your breakthrough shouldn't be far."

"And with the full support of Five Elements Heavenly Sect, you'll surely soar to new heights."

This was a fact, the huge advantage of Xiantian.

In contrast, Xianmen Sect would never devote all their resources to cultivate one person, regardless of how talented they were.

Instead, they would distribute it among a larger group of hopeful individuals, to prevent putting all their eggs in one basket. Over time, they would accumulate their heritage and level out the playing field.

This was the difference in the philosophies of the two organizations.

"You flatter me, Fellow Daoist."

The two exchanged brief pleasantries before sitting at the furthest allowable distance from one another in the classroom.

Thud!

The sound of a Dao bell resonated, and the figure of Immortal Dinghai appeared at the lectern.

"Good day, Teacher Zhang."

"Greetings to Immortal Dinghai."

Everyone offered their respects in their own way.

They sat down and were pulled into individual tutoring states by the teaching magic, receiving tailored lessons based on their personal progress.

"Fellow student Jiang Ding has reached foundation building?"

Immortal Dinghai politely expressed a hint of surprise and said warmly, "How is your practice of the 'Wan Hua Magnetic Element Scripture' foundation building chapter coming along?"

"Teacher, I am somewhat confident, but there are some doubts and confusions that I was about to seek guidance on," Jiang Ding said.

After reaching foundation building, his Divine Sense and mana had increased dramatically, and so had his learning ability. What had been very difficult to learn during the Qi Practicing Phase became a rank easier after foundation building.

During the past two months, besides his cultivation practice, he had also been constantly pondering and deducing, achieving many insights.

"Not bad," Immortal Dinghai nodded.

"I recall that a year ago you were a quasi-third rank Array Master. In Immortal Luling's airspace combat course, you were already capable of inscribing a quasi-Three-Tier Star Fighting Killing Yin Formation. Now is a good time to make a push for Third Order Array Master."

"What don't you understand?"

"About the Third-order Magnetic Field Spirit Power Gathering Formation, formation node number 214, I don't quite understand why it is the way it is..."

Jiang Ding brought up the formation structure model and asked for guidance.

The two of them exchanged questions and answers, and time flew by.
