CHAPTER 556: MODIFIED: CHAPTER 556 UNABLE TO TRANSFORM

However, even though he spoke so many words, Zhang Dadan had no time to pay attention to him and had already slipped into the room.

After witnessing Zhang Dadan close the door, Liu Shu looked at his suite for a long time, then sighed and returned to his own room.

Zhang Dadan returned to his room, quickly locked the door, drew the curtains, and chanted a spell to enter the Jade Token.

He had just evaded Boss Huang’s actions, not only surprising Liu and Cen, who regarded him as a divine being, but even he was quite surprised.

Now he was only at the Refining Qi stage. Although his senses, speed, and strength far surpassed ordinary people, he still couldn’t execute transformations.

If one were to explain the reason, there would be only one possibility: Dadan’s cultivation had refined a lot of Qi, enough to reach a breakthrough point!

Because of this, Zhang Dadan did not intend to brush off Liu Shu but hurried back to his room, preparing for an unexpected exploration.

After entering the Jade Token, Zhang Dadan took a deep breath, feeling a brightness throughout his body, as if he had acquired an inexplicable ability to elevate himself.

"What is this situation? Did I really break through?" Zhang Dadan said to himself, preparing to rush out to the thatched hut.

He had just run a few steps when he was startled and quickly braked, nearly falling to the ground—his speed was clearly not the same!

Due to his engagements recently, he rarely had the chance to be alone; Zhang Dadan had spent two or three days without training in the Jade Card.

Even so, he clearly remembered that his previous performance in the Jade Token was not this fast.

And now, it wasn’t just a matter of speed; he even vaguely felt that the Jade Card’s gravitational pull had significantly lessened, giving him a flying sensation.

Such a strange feeling, was it really because the Jade had changed? Or was it due to his own practice, had he broken through?

Zhang Dadan hesitated for a moment, tentatively ran a few steps, and the buttons on his wind outfit creaked, unable to feel the ground’s touch.

He exerted all his strength and rushed to the thatched hut, flying off the ground like a bird.

Within seconds of leaving the ground, he was near the hut, quickly retracting his effort and falling more than a foot high.

"Darn! I really broke through...I can actually fly!" Zhang Dadan shouted.

However, only the pigs laughed aloud, and the bull with eyes the size of lanterns seemed to mock him.

Fortunately, Zhang Dadan was used to it and did not dare to provoke the animals, instead pushing the door into the thatched hut.

First, Zhang Dadan opened the Longevity Scripture, found the Chapter about cultivation, and read it carefully.

He was now at the Refining Qi Realm. Breaking through the first level would lead him into the Foundation Realm; once the foundation was established, he would become a Golden Core, then a Nascent Soul. A Nascent Soul reaching Great Success could become a deity, leading to the divine realms and ascending among the clouds.

According to the Eternal Life Emperor’s teachings, after entering the Refining Factory and undergoing a hundred days of arduous cultivation, one could directly enter the Foundation Realm, referred to as a hundred days foundation building.

If one did not successfully break through the Refining Qi environment within those hundred days, they would forever remain in the gas refining environment.

For Zhang Dadan to become a hundred-day foundation builder and even suspecting the Longevity Code was shocking.

Because "The Great Divine of Eternal Life" recorded that monks who practiced for more than ten years could successfully enter the Refining Factory, being considered exceptional geniuses.

Thus, the difficulty of progressing from the Refining Qi Realm to the Foundation Realm was evident, needing only a hundred days?

Does it become increasingly difficult and dangerous? Why is that?

The true essence was not in questioning "The Great Divine of Eternal Life" but in Dadan’s mindset. Despite the cultivation path becoming increasingly challenging and dangerous, there was no absolute relationship between hardship and time.

Transitioning from the Refining Factory to the Foundation Realm required only a short period. For those cultivating in the monastery for years, a hundred days was just a brief moment. However, how many monks in the world could successfully enter the Foundation Realm within a hundred days? Less than one in ten thousand!

And Zhang Dadan was the lucky one in ten thousand, not just fortunate but discovering the Jade Token, the legacy of the Chang Qing Emperor!

Zhang Dadan read the grasslands book, which described the foundation state, then sat cross-legged, slowly closing his eyes to sense the flow of spiritual energy in his body.

With the flow of the entire Spiritual Energy, Zhang Dadan quickly discovered a grain the size of a little Mi in his Dantian within the spiritual energy intake.

Zhang Dadan absorbed spiritual inspiration from the outside, using the Inner Scripture, merging it with the Dantian, and having the grain absorb it.

However, these absorbed spiritual energies no longer disappeared but became purer and more refined.

According to the Longevity book, this tiny particle was the Daoist inner core.

Once the Dantian formed an inner core, successfully entering the foundation state, not only could spiritual energy be released, but it could also defeat a bull from the mountain, moving spiritual energy along with the heart.

Of course, more importantly, this core could not only refine the spirit but also nourish the nine apertures and eight orifices, concealing the essence of the body, which was the foundation for future practices.

Zhang Dadan confirmed himself, unknowingly successfully breaking through the foundation foresaw, then retracted the inspiration, slowly standing up.

Before this, his heart was filled with joy, but upon realizing he had truly forged the foundation, Zhang Dadan felt a bit melancholic.

Now that he had entered the Foundation Realm, he was even more proficient than before. If conflicts with others unintentionally disrupted them, what should he do?

Ah! Strength is also a crime. One could only hope that in this world, there would be fewer evildoers and that his enemies would have a long-lasting memory, never to provoke him again!

Zhang Dadan mourned for his enemies, then returned to meditation to practice the Yin Yang secret.

Although he had successfully broken through, forming an inner core and reaching the Foundation Realm within a hundred days, he still had a long way to go.

The whole night passed without words, and the next morning, while Zhang Dadan was still training in the Jade Token, he heard a knock on the door outside, quickly exiting the Jade Token.

"Who is it?" Zhang Dadan tidied his shirt and slowly walked towards the door, breathing evenly without signs of fatigue.

He opened the door to see Wu Weenxiong standing at the entrance with a silly smile on his face. He respectfully said, "Mr. Zhang, it’s not too early anymore."

His enthusiasm forced Miss Zhang to remain cautious and polite. "Mr. Wu, why did you come here personally? You could have just called."

"I...I was afraid you wouldn’t wake up and would argue with you." Wu Weenxiong smiled.

Argue with me? Brother, you knocked on my door so early in the morning, didn’t you disturb me? Your reasoning is remarkable!

Though Zhang Dadan suspected his motives, he knew he wasn’t a bad person and shouldn’t be too indifferent.

"Alright, let’s go downstairs." Zhang Dadan closed the door and guided Wu Weenxiong out of the room.

Wu Weenxiong followed him step by step, like a butler in movies and TV shows, making Zhang Dadan feel like laughing and crying.

Luckily, Zhang Dun lived on the third floor. The two men took only two or three minutes to reach the second-floor restaurant.

Upon entering the restaurant, Zhang Dadan immediately spotted Liu Shu and Boss Huang. They had an unpleasant quarrel last night, and at this point, they even joked with Yan Yan.

Seeing Zhang Dadan hurrying, Boss Huang reached out to him, shouting, "Doctor Zhang Shen, over here..."

The guests in the restaurant frowned and looked at Boss Huang rudely and impolitely.
