Chapter 172: 98~99: Great power within a ten-foot room, imposing atmosphere within the Longevity Sect (two in one for monthly ticket addition)_3 Chapter 172: 98~99: Great power within a ten-foot room, imposing atmosphere within the Longevity Sect (two in one for monthly ticket addition)_3 After breaking through the Foundation Establishment stage, one’s lifespan increases by another hundred years.
This explains why most people claim that cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage can live up to two hundred years.
That’s not to say Foundation Establishment cultivators directly gain two hundred years of life.
In reality, they only gain about a hundred, allowing them to live to around two hundred years old.
Therefore, not only did Chen Dengming make a leap in strength with his successful breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment stage, but he also gained at least a hundred years of life.
Nothing was more enticing and precious than longevity.
However, his principal cultivation technique, the “Three Elements Gathering Spirit Skill,” had reached its limit.
...
This technique was just ordinary stuff in the realm of cultivation, requiring all sorts of awkward postures during practice, and couldn’t be advanced further after reaching Foundation Establishment.
“Now that I’ve reached the Foundation Establishment stage, my most pressing goal has been achieved.
It’s time to choose an advanced Foundation Establishment technique to continue cultivating…”
Having climbed a step in strength and being part of the Sect, Chen Dengming was full of hope for the future.
He got dressed again, changed into the robes of a Changchun Sect disciple, and stepped out of the room.
The shadow of the Mini Array Spirit appeared briefly at the door, circled around the corridor, and feigned just returning, stuttered nervously when she saw Chen Dengming emerge, “F-Friend, you’ve broken through again?”
Chen Dengming rolled his eyes.
“If you want to peek, do it boldly.
Why hide?
I’ve just broken through once more, not ‘again and again’.
“What are you sneaking around for?”
Seeing the Mini Array Spirit’s awkward behaviour, Chen Dengming shook his head with a smile, “Don’t worry, now that my tasks are temporarily done, I won’t forget the nourishing medicine I promised to make for you.”
“N-No, there are…

a lot of people outside right now,” the Mini Array Spirit stuttered with fright.
A lot of people?
Chen Dengming was taken aback, quickly realizing that the commotion caused by his breakthrough to Foundation Establishment probably alarmed many fellow disciples in the area.
As usual, the Mini Array Spirit was shy and didn’t trust anyone besides Chen Dengming.
Upon sensing so many people outside, she naturally became terrified.
“Sorry for blaming you.
Come, hide inside me.
Now that I’m even stronger, I can protect you even more.”
Chen Dengming walked over and beckoned to the Mini Array Spirit.
The sad Mini Array Spirit immediately perked up and darted into the array plate inside Chen Dengming.
As Chen Dengming straightened his robe and pushed the door open to step out of his room, he conversed with the Mini Array Spirit.
“When did these people appear?”
“A-About half an hour ago…
There are…
are four auras much, much stronger…
Even stronger than you now.”
Good grief, so many people were waiting for him outside for half an hour?
And it seemed like four of them were Foundation Establishment cultivators from within the Sect?
Chen Dengming’s heart skipped a few beats – this kind of treatment was unprecedented.
He was about to step out of his courtyard when he paused, rubbed his face, and took out the Light Reflecting Mirror to check his appearance before calming down.
Bursting straight to Foundation Establishment was unexpected even for him.
His released cultivation aura must have shocked those around him.
“Can I call this a rare moment of high-profile?”
He chuckled at himself after stowing away the Light Reflecting Mirror.
Once always cautious to avoid drawing attention, he now gradually became indifferent as he truly transitioned into Foundation Establishment.
If making a splash once was rare, then let’s make that splash.
“Creak—”
He pushed open the door, stepping out with his left foot first.
“Oh, he’s opened the door.”
“Brother…
Uncle Chen is out.”
“You smart kid, know to address him as Uncle, I almost misspoke but thankfully I just shut my mouth in time.”
“Congratulations, Uncle Chen, on your breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, becoming the tenth Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Changchun Sect.”
Outside, gazes filled with eagerness, curiosity, reverence, uncertainty, and scrutiny all fell onto Chen Dengming as he emerged from his courtyard.
The moment they sensed the residual aurora, different from that of a Qi Cultivation cultivator, praises abounded like flowing water.
“Hahaha, Brother Chen, what a surprise!
You’ve been with us for only two months and already gave all of us a huge surprise!”
Several figures descended from mid-air, with Li Yue laughing loudly, the first to congratulate him.
“Officer Li!”
Chen Dengming immediately put on a smile, thanking Li Yue with a fist-palm salute, “Thanks, Officer Li, for your congratulations.
I would also like to thank you for helping me out this morning.”
“Haha, Brother Chen, it wasn’t Officer Li who bailed you out today, you bailed yourself out.”
Amidst the laughter, another Foundation Establishment cultivator with a goat beard spoke.
As the words left his mouth, Mu Daoist, who was behind them with rather unpleasant expressions, awkwardly moved forward with a blush.
Choking on his words as if a few walnuts were stuck in his throat, he managed a greeting and extended his fist to Chen Dengming.
“Brother Chen, I was out of line earlier, particularly with my words.
I hope you won’t hold it against me.
To celebrate your breakthrough to Foundation Establishment today, I’ve brought you a gift as…”
“Eh!?”
Before Mu Daoist could finish his sentence, Chen Dengming abruptly frowned and raised his hand to stop him.
The atmosphere instantly tensed up.
Mu Daoist’s face froze for a moment.
But then, Chen Dengming smiled and took out a medicine bottle from his robe, “Supervisor Mu, you already gave me a gift today.
Do you remember this Pill of Strengthening Spirit?”
“Thanks to your pill, I was fortunate enough to break through.
There’s no need for you to bring me another gift.”
