CHAPTER 20 SUPREME FOUNDATION
780 Words
Golden light illuminated the entire hill.
The ancient tree swayed violently despite the absence of wind.
Pure Spirit Qi surged toward Raizen like countless rivers returning to the sea.
The surrounding earth trembled.
Small stones floated into the air.
The very atmosphere had become unstable.
Raizen remained seated.
His body burned with unbearable pain.
Every meridian inside him was being torn apart...
Only to be reconstructed moments later.
Again.
And again.
And again.
"Ugh..."
Blood flowed from the corner of his lips.
His entire body shook violently.
Yet...
He never screamed again.
His will remained unbroken.

Deep within his dantian...
The sea of Spirit Qi churned violently.
Its once ordinary appearance slowly began to change.
The Spirit Qi became denser.
Brighter.
Purer.
Every strand was compressed repeatedly.
The amount of Spirit Qi didn't increase.
Its quality did.
Outside...
The Spirit Qi surrounding the hill became so dense that it formed a visible mist.
Several nearby disciples stopped walking.
"What's happening?"
"Is someone breaking through?"
"I've never seen Spirit Qi gather like this."
Elder Tian stood silently on a distant rooftop.
His eyes remained fixed upon the ancient tree.
He could clearly sense what was happening.
Yet....
Something felt unusual.
"This..."
"...isn't an ordinary foundation."

Raizen's bones emitted soft cracking sounds.
His muscles became tougher.
His organs grew stronger.
Even his blood slowly transformed.
Dark impurities continued flowing out of his skin.
The ground around him turned black.
Inside his mind...
The Origin System spoke.
Host's physical body is undergoing perfect reconstruction.
Please endure.
Raizen gritted his teeth.
"I..."
"...will."
Suddenly—
A violent pressure erupted from his body.
BOOM!!
The ancient tree shook.
The nearby pond exploded into the air.
Several disciples nearly fell to the ground.
Even the birds fled from the mountain.
Far beneath Black Pine Forest...
The chained primordial creature slowly opened all of its crimson eyes.
Its massive smile widened.
"So..."
"The Supreme Foundation..."
"...has appeared once again."
Ancient memories resurfaced.
A figure standing above countless worlds.
An existence worshipped by immortals.
The same aura...
Was beginning to awaken.

Raizen's consciousness gradually drifted.
He suddenly found himself standing within an endless world of darkness.
There was nothing.
No sky.
No earth.
No stars.
Only endless silence.
Then...
A single golden flame appeared before him.
It floated quietly.
Without heat.
Without sound.
Yet it carried an ancient, indescribable pressure.
Raizen instinctively reached toward it.
The moment his fingertips touched the flame—
Boom!
Countless images flooded his mind.
He saw worlds being born.
He saw galaxies collapsing.
He saw ancient beings kneeling before a lone figure seated upon a throne of chaos.
He couldn't see the figure's face.
Only its silhouette.
Before everything disappeared...
One sentence echoed through the void.
"Strength without purpose destroys creation."
"Strength with purpose protects eternity."
Raizen's eyes snapped open.
"What..."
"...was that?"
Memory Fragment Acquired.
Primordial Legacy Synchronization: 1%
The Origin System remained silent afterward.
As though even it couldn't explain what Raizen had just witnessed.
Supreme Foundation Establishment: 100%
Success.
Congratulations, Host.
Supreme Foundation has been perfectly established.
At that exact moment...
Every meridian inside Raizen became crystal clear.
His dantian expanded to nearly twice its previous size.
His Spirit Qi became astonishingly pure.
His senses sharpened dramatically.
He could hear leaves falling hundreds of meters away.
He could feel Spirit Qi flowing through every blade of grass.
Even the world itself seemed clearer.
Raizen slowly stood.
His body felt unbelievably light.
He gently clenched his fist.
No explosion.
No overwhelming aura.
Only perfect control.
A single punch struck the empty air.
Whoosh.
The air rippled before him.
Raizen smiled faintly.
"So this..."
"...is the Supreme Foundation."

Raizen's breathing stopped for a moment.
"A physique..."
"So that's the reward."
Far away...
The hooded man hidden within the Rizz Clan suddenly looked toward the hill.
His smile disappeared.
"No..."
"Impossible."
"The Supreme Foundation was supposed to be extinct."
For the first time...
Fear appeared in his eyes.
Elder Tian smiled as he watched the golden light slowly fade.
"You truly are..."
"...the hope this world has been waiting for."
High above the clouds...
An ancient golden eye slowly opened.
It gazed down upon the Human Realm.
Upon one insignificant young man standing beneath an ancient tree.
For countless millions of years...
It had never awakened.
Until today.
And somewhere beyond the heavens...
A voice whispered into the endless void.
"...The Heir has awakened."
