All leaders of sects in the cultivation world remind themselves not to repeat the mistakes of the past when they assume power.

If a sect lacks even basic fairness, how can it cultivate high-level cultivators who are loyal to the sect?

Even if one does it in secret, such abuse of power for personal gain will certainly not appear on the surface.

The original owner rejected Li Chao and didn't take it to heart. However, from that moment on, the two of them developed a grudge.

It just so happens that Li Chao is also a dual-spiritual-root cultivator, and given the strength of his family, his cultivation speed is actually faster than the original owner's.

The original owner's family now has only a hundred or so cultivators, the most powerful of whom is only at the late Foundation Establishment stage. Li Chao's family, on the other hand, has a Golden Core cultivator in charge.

This created a disparity in strength between the two sides, and coupled with Li Chao's impressive cultivation speed, his family offered him considerable support.

After entering the sect, Li Chao discovered his excellence more and more. At the age of twenty-three, he had already broken through the seventh level of Qi Refining and joined the inner sect.

He broke through to the ninth level of the Qi Refining stage at the age of twenty-seven, the same age as Li Chao.

The consequence of being slow at every step was that every time the original owner encountered Li Chao, the other party would mock and ridicule her.

Just as the original owner emerged from seclusion after breaking through to the eighth level of the Qi Refining stage, he heard that Li Chao had already gone into seclusion to prepare for breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Breaking through from the Qi Refining stage to the Foundation Establishment stage is not something that can be done easily.

Even for cultivators with a single spiritual root, or those aided by rare and precious materials, it still takes up to a year to break through from the Qi Refining stage to the Foundation Establishment stage.

When the original owner heard that Li Chao was about to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, he thought of all the times he had been mercilessly mocked by Li Chao over the years, and how could he bear it?

So the original owner hurriedly sought help from his family, who were also hoping that a cultivation genius would emerge to help the family grow stronger.

The original owner's family did indeed provide him with 500 spirit stones as a subsidy, but unfortunately, the Foundation Establishment Pills that helped him break through to the Foundation Establishment stage were too expensive.

Even though the cultivation world has long since researched the most suitable formula for Foundation Establishment Pills for breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage, various sects will still grow the spiritual herbs needed to refine Foundation Establishment Pills in their herb gardens.

The refining of Foundation Establishment Pills requires more than a dozen kinds of spiritual herbs, among which the most precious Red Phosphorus Grass takes a full two hundred years to grow.

If the other spiritual herbs in the Foundation Establishment Pill are only worth 500 low-grade spirit stones, then a 200-year-old Red Phosphorus Grass would cost 2,000 low-grade spirit stones.

This is just the price of the medicinal materials; in addition, the difficulty of refining the Foundation Establishment Pill is also very high.

Even ordinary alchemists can only guarantee a success rate of 40%, so the Foundation Establishment Pill costs 10,000 low-grade spirit stones even when sold within the sect.

The original owner joined the sect at the age of sixteen and is now twenty-eight. In the early stages, he received one hundred points per year, and after joining the inner sect at the age of twenty-five, he received two hundred points per year.

Over the course of more than a decade, aside from normal expenses, the original owner accumulated a thousand points.

Within the sect, points are more valuable than spirit stones, and they are much more affordable for buying cultivation techniques and elixirs.

In a normal transaction, five low-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for one point. If you sell to a sect for points, one point can be exchanged for three low-grade spirit stones.

If you were to exchange Foundation Establishment Pills with points, it would require 2,000 points. The original owner only had 1,000 points, and besides the 500 spirit stones provided by the family, he also had several hundred spirit stones. This was definitely not enough to buy Foundation Establishment Pills.

If the original owner had followed the steps, he could have accumulated two thousand points in five more years at most.

At the same time, the original owner's cultivation level can also break through to the ninth level of the Qi Refining stage, so his breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment stage is basically a certainty.

Unfortunately, Li Chao's sudden breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment stage during his seclusion put immense pressure on the original owner of this body.

By some strange twist of fate, the original owner actually chose to fight head-on. Instead of buying Foundation Establishment Pills, the original owner used five hundred low-grade spirit stones to buy some spirit wine to replenish spiritual energy in critical moments before choosing to go into seclusion for a breakthrough.

Such impulsive seclusion resulted in the original owner's sudden death. If Wu Tao hadn't transmigrated, the original owner would probably have completely disappeared from the cultivation world.

Wu Tao secluded himself in the cave for three months before opening the cave gate.

Although it's called a cave dwelling, even for inner disciples, it's really just a room of about thirty square meters.

Apart from a bedroom and a small toilet, there was nothing else.

Cultivators rarely eat, instead consuming fasting pills. These pills are inexpensive; a pot of them contains ten pills and costs ten low-grade spirit stones.

One Bigu Pill can sustain a cultivator's nutrition for ten days, and there are only about thirty Bigu Pills in a year.

Wu Tao not only recuperated in the cave, but also carefully observed his personal space.

I don't know why, maybe it was the work of some mysterious powerful being, but this time when I traveled here, the space directly turned into nothingness.

To be precise, all the land, houses, machinery, livestock, and even the 10,000 gold bricks he had prepared in advance in the space disappeared.

Now, apart from a ten-acre open space and a well, there is nothing else in the space.

In particular, through comparison, it was discovered that the alternation of the sun and moon in space is a full hundred times faster than in the outside world.

The key point is that the space seems to be constantly absorbing spiritual energy from the outside world, and this absorption is in an endless mode.

Although the amount is very small, it is continuous. From initially having no spiritual energy in the space, it is now almost approaching the second-tier spiritual vein.

Wu Tao couldn't even imagine whether he would directly break through to the third, fourth, or even fifth or sixth tier of spiritual veins later on.

You should know that in the cultivation world today, a fifth-order spiritual vein is already a top-tier blessed land, and only those super sects have it.

Several hundred years ago, a secret realm appeared in the cultivation world. The spiritual energy inside reached the level of a fifth-order spiritual vein, approaching that of a sixth-order spiritual vein, directly causing a great upheaval in the cultivation world.

After a century-long battle, the four factions finally determined the ownership of the blessed land.

No fewer than a million cultivators died in that battle, including countless Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul cultivators.

Even the most mysterious and unpredictable Nascent Soul cultivators, more than five of them, turned to ashes.

The reason why everyone values ​​spiritual veins so much is that many high-level spiritual herbs require fifth- or sixth-level spiritual veins to be nurtured.

The reason why legendary cultivators have not appeared in the cultivation world for so many years is because the highest level of spiritual veins known so far is only the fifth level.

Furthermore, fifth-order spiritual veins simply cannot nurture the auxiliary spiritual herbs needed to break through to legendary status.

This directly cuts off the possibility for a Nascent Soul cultivator to break through to the Legendary level by relying on external forces.

So even if that secret realm's spiritual vein isn't at the sixth rank, it's still enough for those Nascent Soul stage experts who have nowhere else to go to fight for it.

Rather than waiting for their three thousand years of lifespan to run out, they would not let go of any opportunity to break through to the legendary level.

Wu Tao is now full of confidence in his future. He even feels that he has come to change the status quo of the cultivation world.

Compared to the original owner, Wu Tao was more patient. With his personal space at his disposal, he was not afraid of anyone, not even those in the Foundation Establishment stage, or even legendary, Void Refinement, Mahayana, or Earth Immortal stages.

Of course, the premise is that you must survive. The original owner died suddenly because he was too arrogant.
