“To cultivate the Synchronous Pact, you need to match it with a corresponding spiritual object. This is the best choice for you given by the Red Heart Mirror.”

Che Yucheng pointed to the sword shadow displayed on the screen on his forehead, explaining while manipulating the Formless Puppet to evolve.

Amidst the exclamations of the crowd, the puppet began to sit cross-legged, assuming a cultivation posture.

Its brain seemed to store Qi, and after the evolution began, with the flickering of the sword shadow on the puppet’s forehead screen, it flowed through the twelve-story tower into the body’s meridians, circulating around the body, and finally converging into the Dantian Qi Sea.

“This Qi is equivalent to one percent of what you use during cultivation. You can observe the slow movement of the Qi in the meridians, which represents the areas you can improve during cultivation.”

During the puppet’s first round of Qi Refining, Che Yucheng carefully explained, then pressed the fast-forward button.

Then, Chen Mobai clearly saw the number wheel in the puppet’s left eye jump from “one” to “two”, from “two” to “three”, and then it got stuck.

“The left eye represents the realm of Qi Refining. ‘One’ is the first level of Qi Refining. When it gets stuck at ‘three’, it means you will encounter a bottleneck when cultivating the Synchronous Pact.”

Che Yucheng paused here, explained again, and then pressed the fast-forward button.

But it still paused for nearly nine minutes before the number wheel in the puppet’s left eye slowly turned to “four”.

“Nine minutes represents that you will encounter a nine-month bottleneck at the third level of Qi Refining. Generally, when it is deduced to this point, it means that you are not suitable for cultivating the Synchronous Pact.”

Che Yucheng’s words made the faces of the new students around Chen Mobai pale, but he still held his head high, staring intently at the puppet.

When the number wheel in the left eye reached “six”, it paused again for fifteen minutes.

Chen Mobai clearly saw the young man next to him clenching his fists tightly.

Che Yucheng didn’t say much, he kept pressing the fast-forward button. When it reached the ninth level of Qi Refining, he signaled everyone to pay attention and watch carefully.

“This is the process of Foundation Establishment. The Formless Puppet was initially made with only this function.”

After listening, Chen Mobai clearly saw the puppet’s transparent internal meridians and organs begin to tremble violently. Then, the spiritual power in the Dantian Qi Sea began to squeeze towards the center, spontaneously forming a spiritual vortex, condensing the first drop of liquefied spiritual power.

So the spiritual vortex has this function. No wonder Qingping Shangren said in the lecture video of the Five Elements Technique that if you achieve this, the success rate of Foundation Establishment can increase by 10%.

Chen Mobai was excited and once again admired Qingping Shangren.

But then he realized why the success rate of Foundation Establishment in the Four Dao Academies was so high.

With the Critical Method, the Formless Puppet to simulate Foundation Establishment, and the Foundation Establishment Treasure, even people with ordinary spiritual roots can greatly increase their success rate of Foundation Establishment with these three conditions.

In the midst of Chen Mobai’s astonishment, he suddenly saw the originally clear face of the Formless Puppet begin to blur, and the liquefied spiritual power in the Dantian lost control, rushing out of the Dantian, causing the meridians to break and the organs to be damaged wherever it passed.

Then, the meridians and organs that had been transformed inside the Formless Puppet began to disappear and became transparent again.

This was a failure of Foundation Establishment!

“Wang Xingyu, you are not suitable for cultivating the Synchronous Pact, this is the result of the Formless Puppet’s deduction.”

Che Yucheng looked regretful, and the young man next to Chen Mobai looked pale, but there was still unwillingness in his eyes.

“I want to try. If I can master the Critical Method and get stuck at the second step during Foundation Establishment, I think I can succeed.”

The young man named Wang Xingyu made his choice after a moment of silence.

Che Yucheng sighed after hearing this, and dutifully advised him one last time.

“Even if you master the Critical Method, you can’t guarantee a 100% success rate for Foundation Establishment.”

“In the deduction of the Formless Puppet, as long as your probability of successful Foundation Establishment exceeds 50%, it will show success. If you want to cultivate the Synchronous Pact, it is far from enough.”

“You don’t have to rush to make a decision, you can go back and think about it carefully, and come to me after you have thought it through.”

After persuading him, he pulled out the USB stick and plugged it into the back of another Formless Puppet’s head.

This thing can’t be used only once, can it?

Chen Mobai saw this scene and was puzzled.

But he thought that with the Immortal Gate’s pathological obsession with resource recycling, such disposable items would definitely not be made.

Just as his thoughts were wandering, the evolution of the second Formless Puppet had already begun, and this time the corresponding spiritual object was a bird.

Unfortunately, it still failed to establish the foundation.

The girl named Lu Zixuan looked gloomy, but she accepted Che Yucheng’s advice and chose to give up cultivating the Synchronous Pact.

Among the next eight people, only two succeeded in Foundation Establishment in the evolution of the Formless Puppet.

Their excitement was beyond words.

However, among those who failed to establish the foundation, only three chose to give up, and the rest all expressed their desire to try. Che Yucheng gave them all three days to consider.

“Next are the new students who have chosen the Pure Yang Scroll.”

Chen Mobai looked at the other two boys, and the three of them walked to the front of the three Formless Puppets.

“After the revision by Ancestor Yuanyang, the threshold of the Pure Yang Scroll has disappeared. In theory, as long as your lifespan is sufficient, everyone can cultivate it.”

Che Yucheng’s words made Chen Mobai very curious. Since it’s certain to succeed, what does the Formless Puppet need to deduce?

Soon, Che Yucheng explained the problem.

“But the problem with the Pure Yang Scroll lies in the lifespan. Because you need to spend half of your lifespan on cultivating the Pure Yang Method Body, the time you have to break through the realm is naturally much less than others.”

“During the Qi Refining stage, it doesn’t matter much. But after Foundation Establishment, others may only need a few years to break through a realm, while you may need ten years.”

“According to the thousand-year samples of the Weapon Dance Academy and Pure Yang School, if you establish your foundation with the Pure Yang Scroll before the age of thirty, there is hope for forming a golden core. After the age of thirty, one hundred percent will die old in the Foundation Establishment realm, without any exceptions.”

So this is what the formless puppet had deduced.

Chen Mobai understood.

He also understood why the Red Robe Taoist Master had given up on the Pure Yang Scroll and switched to practicing the Heaven Burning Skill.

Chen Mobai’s USB was first plugged in by Che Yucheng. Then he saw the transparent puppet in front of him transform into his own face, and the meridians, organs, and bones began to appear within the body.

The light of the tri-color spiritual root lit up, and the cultivation path of the Pure Yang Body and Pure Yang Scroll began to operate within the puppet. The digital wheel in the left eye began to spin.

When the number “nine” appeared, Chen Mobai saw a line of text emerge on the display screen on the puppet’s forehead.

Age: 39.

“Your fire spiritual root value is too low. If you are distracted by the cultivation of the Three Yang Body, you can reach the perfection of the ninth level of Qi Refining at the age of 39, and attempt the first Foundation Establishment.”

Che Yucheng was not surprised at all, and then began to simulate the process of Foundation Establishment.

Just when everyone thought it would fail, it surprisingly succeeded in Foundation Establishment in one go.
