Chapter 145 Foundation Building

I don't know how long this process lasted. The vortex of spiritual energy outside the cave expanded to a size of fifty feet and finally stopped expanding. The spiritual energy of the surrounding world had been absorbed, and the spiritual energy of the sea eroded away into the cave.

The guardian cultivator of Qingxuan Palace looked at the huge aura vortex and frowned, full of doubts. It was not the first time for him to protect the Dharma for his disciples, but when others built the foundation, the aura vortex was at most [-] feet in radius. How could this child attract such a huge aura? .

A steady stream of spiritual power rushed towards Tangning's body.

His consciousness was already fainted, and he entered another world in a daze.

The surrounding area is full of green grass, towering green trees, and the blue sky is thousands of miles away, with occasional white clouds drifting by.

All of a sudden, the surrounding area darkened, and its eyes were dim, and something seemed to be squeezing it.

It squeezed upwards, and squeezed upwards. After a long time, maybe an hour, maybe several springs and autumns, it finally broke free from the cage.

There is a fragrant world outside, with green grass everywhere, towering green trees, and clear sky.

It struggled vigorously until its whole body squeezed out of the cage. It flapped its wings and came to a flower to suck food. It had been hungry for too long.

Since then, it has lingered among the flowers and plants every day, very contented.

One day, the autumn wind was refreshing, a tall figure came from a distance, it couldn't see the appearance of the tall figure clearly, only saw it sitting among the green grass.

Day after day, sometimes he bowed his head in thought, and sometimes he looked up to the sky and sighed.

Month after month, it got acquainted with this tall figure and often played together.

The tall figure chased it and put it in the palm of its hand.

It likes this feeling, its whole body is very warm, it often lands on his shoulders, and turns around him, but it can never see his specific appearance clearly.

.........

In the blue sky, a handsome man came to the green grass. He didn't know where he came from, and he didn't know where he was going, until he saw a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon.

He has been following the butterfly. One day, the butterfly came to him and played with him.

He loves this butterfly very much, plays games with it, and knows no years.

…………

Tang Ning looked at the man and the butterfly, and kept watching them. Even though there was no him in this world, spring and winter solstice, cold and summer, the butterfly could not withstand the erosion of time, and grew old day by day.

It can't fly anymore, it has no strength, although it still wants to play with the figure, flying around him, but it is too tired.

It closed its eyes, and when it was dying, it tried hard to look at the figure, but it still couldn't see clearly.

...............

Butterfly died, he was very sad, he held it in the palm of his hand, wept loudly, slowly, he also got old and couldn't walk anymore.

He still didn't know where he came from and where he was going, he only remembered that a butterfly had spent a good time with him.

...............

The space between the sky and the earth was empty, and Tangning was full of thoughts. He sometimes turned into that butterfly, sometimes turned into that man, and sometimes turned into the master of the world, watching them.

He can no longer tell whether he is a butterfly or the man. He switches back and forth among the three roles, being a butterfly, a man, and himself.

The ringing of the bell was abrupt, echoing between the heaven and the earth, and the ringing was endless. It was the Qingxin Bell reminding him not to fall into the illusion. He was very awake, but just a little nostalgic.

The surrounding green grass and green trees slanted down, and then the sky spun, and he returned to the cave, staring at his hands in a daze.

The foundation building has been completed, and a pool of lake water is stored in the Linghai cave, flowing along his body, which is the sublimation of the spiritual energy in the body and turned into spiritual liquid.

He succeeded in building the foundation, but he didn't have the slightest joy to speak of. He was thinking whether this place was real or that world was real, whether he had transformed into a butterfly and a man, or whether the butterfly and the man had transformed into him.

After a long time, he sighed, put on his clothes and walked out of the cave. Although the establishment of the foundation suffered a little pain this time, it was safe and sound.

Other people's foundation-building demons are extremely dangerous, but he has not been backlashed by the demons, but has fallen into an illusion, and has always maintained a clear consciousness. From the beginning of falling into the illusion, he knew it was an illusion.

Among the three characters, the invisible existence watching the man and the butterfly is his own consciousness.

"Congratulations." Before the monks in Qingxuan Hall left, they saw Tangning coming out of the cave and greeted her.

"Thank you."

"Register and report at Qingxuan Palace tomorrow." After the man finished speaking, he turned into a shadow and left.

Tang Ning put away the five-door cloud and water array. Due to the attack from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the array was damaged a lot. Two array flags were broken, and several other array flags were also damaged to varying degrees. They were basically useless.

He tried to release the spiritual energy in his body to form a spiritual energy shield around him, wrapping his whole body, and when he moved his consciousness, the spiritual energy that wrapped his whole body lifted his body into the air with a swish.

Tang Ning walked against the wind, soaring high into the sky for a while, turning straight down for a while, back and forth, quite enjoyable.

This feeling.

what!wonderful.

……

The next day, he reported his identity registration to the Qingxuan Hall, came to Kong Fanxing's cave on the middle finger peak, and handed Zhang Fulu to enter. After a while, the dense fog on both sides cleared, and Tang Ning came to his main room: "I have seen Master Kong." uncle."

Kong Fanxing opened his eyes, his fat face trembled, and he was taken aback for a moment with a look of shock on his face: "You have already established the foundation."

"Yes, this disciple built a foundation at Jincui Peak yesterday and was lucky enough to succeed. Today, I am here to pay a visit to Master Kong."

"Since the foundation has been established, I don't dare to be called a senior uncle. Let's call him a senior brother!"

In the world of practice, seniority is generally judged by cultivation, but not everyone is like this. If you are acquainted or have a teacher from the same school, you will have your own seniority.

Like Tang Ning and Kong Fanxing, even though they both belong to the Qianyi Sect, they were not related to each other before, and now they are on the same level, so it is obviously inappropriate to call them uncles and disciples.

"I don't dare." Tangning said humbly

Kong Fanxing waved his hand: "Hey! It's just a title, so don't be too persistent. Brother Tang, you have completed your foundation building. According to the rules of the sect, you can choose one of the sects to build your own cave, but our information According to Ke’s rules, the monk’s cave must be on the middle finger peak, and if there is anything wrong, he can be summoned at any time, have you chosen the site?”

Tangning replied, "The foundation was just built yesterday, and the cave has not yet been selected. Do we need to wait for Master Lu's approval on this matter?"

"Small things, why are you so troublesome? On the middle finger peak, where do you fancy, just build a cave by yourself."

The two chatted for a while, before Tangning left, she came to pay a visit to Lu Xingxian's cave mansion, and was led into the mansion by his disciples.

This is the first time he has stepped into Lu Xingxian's cave mansion, the first two times when he came to visit, he played outside the mansion and was conveyed by his disciples.

In the slightly dim main room, Lu Xingxian opened his eyes and looked at him: "Since you have successfully established the foundation, you will be equal to my generation from now on, and you will be called a senior brother. Everyone in our department is like this."

"Yes."

"Our department has a rule that the cave must be built on the middle finger peak, even me is no exception, you can choose a place to build the cave on the middle finger peak."

"clear."

"At noon tomorrow, come to the meeting hall, and I will announce your new appointment to all the juniors."

"Yes."

"Nothing else, you go first!"

"Disciple farewell."

Tang Ning left here, and found a place in the south of the first knuckle of the middle finger peak. After working for half a day, he built a simple cave. It was small in size, covering an area of ​​three acres. courtyard, backyard.

The entire cave is empty, except for a stone bed in the main room, a pair of stone tables, and a few stone benches. Compared with Kong Fanxing's cave, it looks like a slum, and even compared with Lu Xingxian, it is far inferior.

It was almost noon on the second day when he came to the meeting hall at the top of the peak. The two disciples on duty were shocked when they saw him breaking through the foundation building, and turned to look envious.

When Tangning arrived, the others hadn't arrived yet, so he picked a seat near the end at the bottom of the hall.

Not long after, several other Foundation Establishment cultivators from the intelligence department came one after another. They were a little surprised to see his expression, and then relieved.

Only Kong Fanxing smiled at him, and Zhu Xu also nodded at him.

Except for the Foundation Establishment cultivators stationed outside the intelligence department, there are only seven people who have stayed in the sect for a long time.

They are Lu Xingxian, Kong Fanxing, Zhu Xu, Lu Guang, Chen Xuan, Ye Xiu, and Xu Jingyang.

Among them, Xu Jingyang successfully established the foundation three years ago, and was originally the captain of the third team of the intelligence department.

When everyone arrived, Lu Xingxian took out a document and said, "Junior Brothers, the only thing to call everyone to the meeting room this time is to announce the appointment of Junior Brother Tang Ning. It has been recommended by the Department, approved by the Secret Academy, and verified by the Qingxuan Palace. , issued an appointment and ordered him to be in charge of the intelligence department."

"Junior Brother Tangning was originally a student of the Air Force Aid Team. He succeeded in building the foundation the day before yesterday. I decided to let him take over the job of Junior Brother Zhang Ye. He was in charge of the intelligence liaison with outside the sect. Junior Brother Xu will return to his job. Junior Brother Kong, what do you think?"

Kong Fanxing laughed and said, "After Junior Brother Zhang passed away, he was worried that no one would take over his job. Junior Brother Tang came at the right time."

"Since that's the case, this matter is settled, Junior Brother Tang, and you will handle the information contact with outside the sect from now on."

"Yes."

"You must know these junior brothers by now." Lu Xingxian said: "Junior brother Zhu Xu is in charge of intelligence collection work, and all information is reported to the sect through him. The intelligence room will be handled by Junior Brother Zhu."

"Junior Kong Fanxing, Kong Fanxing, is in charge of the inspection work. He supervises the actions of all personnel in the intelligence department. If he finds that someone commits a crime and violates the sect's laws and regulations, he can deal with it according to the regulations. If the situation is serious and the situation is urgent, he has the right to act arbitrarily." The right to cut first and play later."

"Junior Brother Lu Guang and Junior Brother Ye Xiu are in charge of the specific affairs of each action team."

"Junior Brother Chen Xuan and Junior Brother Xu Jingyang are in charge of the internal affairs of the department, including the operation funds of the department personnel, reporting of operation losses, personnel rewards and punishments, etc."

Tangning nodded her head one by one.

"Junior Brother Tang, you will follow Junior Brother Zhu to the intelligence room later, and he will teach you how to contact and handle intelligence."
