This Spirit-Suppressing Pearl is a Grade Earth magic treasure, but unfortunately, it's already damaged, its spiritual power leaking out. Now, it only has one last chance to be used.
"Although it's a Grade Earth magic treasure, it's already damaged; it's a bit of a pity." A trace of regret flashed through Qin Changsheng's mind, but he didn't dwell on it too much.
Finally, Qin Changsheng's divine sense landed on a deep red pill with potent medicinal effects. The pill was surrounded by dense spiritual energy, and even with just his divine sense, he could feel the immense medicinal power it contained—that was a high-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, also a gift from Chen Erniu.
"The most crucial thing is this high-grade Foundation Establishment Pill."
"With this pill, my chances of successfully establishing my foundation will increase significantly!"
Slowly withdrawing his divine sense, Qin Changsheng closed his eyes and began to cultivate.
...
Autumn turned to spring, and in the blink of an eye, more than nine months had quietly passed.
In the outer courtyard, Qin Changsheng remained seated cross-legged on the Spirit Gathering Futon, eyes closed, expression serene as still water, his aura steady and profound, without the slightest ripple.
For the past nine months, he had cast aside all distractions, severed all irrelevant ties, and devoted himself to arduous cultivation, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth day and night to hone his proficiency at the tenth level of Qi Refining, never slacking off for a single day.
The more than 300,000 jin of spirit rice in his storage space provided him with a continuous supply of spiritual energy;
Tens of thousands of spirit sands aided him in condensing his spiritual power, accelerating his cultivation progress.
Furthermore, the Life-Burning Technique's amplification of spiritual energy absorption speed allowed him to avoid many detours on his cultivation path.
Day after day, month after month, the spiritual power within his body grew increasingly abundant and circulated more smoothly. His proficiency at the tenth level of Qi Refining was gradually filled and honed to its peak through this relentless cultivation.
On this day, the spiritual energy surrounding Qin Changsheng suddenly surged violently. The thin mist of spiritual energy that had been swirling around the courtyard seemed to be drawn towards his body, frantically converging and forming a visible vortex of spiritual energy.
Qin Changsheng's body trembled slightly. The spiritual power within him surged like a rushing river, rapidly circulating through his meridians, cleansing every inch of them and nourishing every strand of spiritual energy.
"Tenth level of Qi Refining, the perfect state." Qin Changsheng slowly opened his eyes, his gaze immediately turning to his attribute panel.

[Status: Blood Demon Blood Curse]
However, Qin Changsheng was somewhat surprised when he saw the last status column.
He hadn't expected that the Blood Demon Sect would place the Blood Demon Blood Curse on him again.
But Qin Changsheng quickly understood what was going on.
It must be that Li Hu was extremely unwilling to lose the Grand Competition championship.
So he had a blood curse placed on the mysterious person who attacked him.
However, Li Hu had no idea that this blood curse had no effect on him whatsoever.
After checking his status, Qin Changsheng looked at the number of times he could draw an abbreviation.
Now that it was a new year, he could draw new abbreviations.
Without hesitation, Qin Changsheng opened the abbreviation draw page.
The next instant, a semi-transparent light screen appeared. On the screen, countless golden characters slowly flowed, each character representing an independent abbreviation, emitting a faint spiritual light, mysterious and eerie.

Qin Changsheng slowly stood up, his gaze falling on the light screen, his expression becoming solemn.
He knew that this abbreviation draw was crucial for him.
Now that he had reached the tenth level of Qi Refining and was about to attempt Foundation Establishment, if he could draw an abbreviation that would increase his success rate in Foundation Establishment or nourish his spiritual roots, it would make his path to Foundation Establishment much smoother.
Qin Changsheng took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and began to select an item.
As Qin Changsheng finished speaking, the light screen suddenly lit up with a dazzling golden light.
After an unknown amount of time, a golden item with clearly written characters slowly emerged from the light screen, hovering before him.
[Golden Item - Information]
A hint of surprise flashed in Qin Changsheng's eyes, then he focused his gaze intently. A gentle stream of information quietly flowed into his consciousness, clearly informing him of the golden item's effect. At that moment, even he, who had weathered many storms and possessed a calm demeanor, could not hide the joy and emotion in his eyes.
This [Golden Item - Information] was not a temporary boost, nor did it directly increase cultivation, yet it possessed a practical value far exceeding that of ordinary items.
Simply enter the treasure's name in your attribute panel, and the entry will automatically activate, searching for all target treasures within a thousand miles. Whether the treasure is hidden deep within a secret realm, a monster's lair, or concealed by a cultivator, as long as it's within that thousand-mile radius, its exact location, surrounding environment, and guarding status will all be clearly displayed on the attribute panel, readily available.
"Such an incredible effect!" Qin Changsheng was filled with excitement.
His most pressing need was to find the Foundation Condensation Grass, which only exists in secret realms, making it extremely difficult and dangerous to find. Even knowing the general direction would require a significant amount of time and effort to investigate, sometimes even involving personal danger.
But now, with this [Golden Entry - Intelligence], everything would be completely different.
Simply typing "Foundation-Condensing Grass" will automatically display the locations of all Foundation-Condensing Grasses within a thousand miles. He no longer needs to blindly search for secret realm information or rashly venture into unknown dangers. He can simply follow the panel's prompts to precisely reach the target location, saving countless troubles, greatly improving the efficiency of finding Foundation-Condensing Grasses, and avoiding potential dangers.
He subconsciously activated his divine sense, summoning his attribute panel. Besides basic information such as his cultivation level, spiritual power, and spiritual root, a new line of golden text appeared: [Golden Attribute - Information (Searchable)].
Qin Changsheng's heart stirred, and he used his divine sense to type "Foundation-Condensing Grass" into the panel.
One minute later, several lines of smaller text appeared on the attribute panel.
[Target Treasure: Foundation Condensation Grass], [Quantity: 3 stalks], [Location 1: 900 li west of the Heavenly Sword Sect, in Li Hu's storage bag]
[Location 2: Inner sect of the Heavenly Sword Sect, in Jiang Lijuan's possession.]
[Location 3: Inner sect of the Heavenly Sword Sect, in Lin Hao's possession]
Looking at the crystal-clear information on the panel, Qin Changsheng's eyes were filled with joy.
He hadn't expected the golden information to be so powerful.
Just entering the treasure's information had yielded such detailed information in a short time.
And it even clearly showed whose storage bag it was in.
"Li Hu!" Qin Changsheng looked at the information on the panel, somewhat astonished.
He hadn't expected Li Hu to be hiding 900 li west of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Qin Changsheng didn't have any particular interest in the Foundation Condensation Grass in Li Hu's possession.
After all, Li Hu was the young master of the Blood Demon Sect.
And he had many experts by his side.
Even if Qin Changsheng went, he probably wouldn't have much of a chance.
Then, Qin Changsheng's gaze fell on the second location.
Qin Changsheng wasn't particularly surprised that Jiang Lijuan possessed such a spiritual herb.
After all, her master was Fairy Qingling.
However, Qin Changsheng didn't hold much hope of obtaining the Foundation Condensation Grass from Jiang Lijuan.
After all, Jiang Lijuan spent most of her time by Fairy Qingling's side.
Qin Changsheng had no chance of seizing the Foundation Condensation Grass.
"Lin Hao!" Qin Changsheng made his decision.
That was to seize the spiritual herb from Lin Hao.
Lin Hao had always been arrogant and conceited, looking down on everyone.
He usually liked to bully lower-level cultivators.
He just needed to find an opportunity to take the Foundation Condensation Grass from Lin Hao.
Qin Changsheng sat back down cross-legged on the Spirit Gathering Futon, his expression calm, but a thought arose in his mind to further explore the effects of the golden attribute's information.
He already possessed a high-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, which could increase the success rate of Foundation Establishment by forty percent. If he could find a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, combined with Foundation Condensation Grass, even with top-grade five spiritual roots, the success rate of Foundation Establishment could approach ninety percent, completely eliminating any concerns about failure.
Thinking this, Qin Changsheng's mind stirred slightly, and his divine sense quietly summoned the attribute panel. His gaze fell on the line of golden [Golden Attribute - Information], a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
"Search for 'Top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill'," Qin Changsheng murmured in his mind, and with a slight movement of his divine sense, clearly engraved the five characters "Top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill" in the input field of the attribute panel.
