What was even more horrifying for Su Changyu was that the faces of the corpses littered all around were identical to that of the white-haired cultivator he’d met earlier!

It was as if these were the corpses of clones of the man himself!

Despite usually priding himself on his resilient and distinctive mindset, this eerie scene made Su Changyu break into a cold sweat.

“Hehe, there’s no need to be so nervous. They are just corpses, what is there to fear?”

“You should know, the living can be far more terrifying than the dead.”

The white-haired cultivator spoke in a disquietingly sinister manner.

With a slight gesture, a set of table and chairs conjured up from the ground.

“Sit. Situate yourself to truly appreciate the sight.”

“No one has visited this place in many years.”

After the initial shock of the bizarre double-voice and the terrifying surroundings, Su Changyu gradually adapted.

With a calm mind, he took a seat.

“May I know your name, sir?”

Seeing the white-haired cultivator staring blankly at his surroundings, Su Changyu instigated the conversation.

“I’m known as Yin Shangren.”

“Hehe, others tend to call me Yin Yin Shangren.”

Yin Shangren said with a touch of self-mockery.

“I am Su Changyu. Pleased to meet you, Master Yin,” Su Changyu introduced himself with neither servility nor arrogance.

At those words, Yin Shangren suddenly turned his head and examined Su Changyu critically.

It was only after a long while that he averted his gaze.

“Huh, truly fate works in mysterious ways…” Yin Shangren mumbled under his breath.

Su Changyu overheard, but failed to discern the deeper meaning behind his words.

After a long time, Yin Shangren spoke again: “You are also stuck at the door of foundation establishment, led by your internal fate to this place, aren’t you?”

“Foundation Establishment?” Su Changyu was stunned; he was only at the final stage of refining energy.

Just as he was about to deny it, he heard Yin Shangren continued: “Hehe, it’s just a habit now. After all, every few years, a cultivator is guided here.”

“Each time one arrives, I need to repeat the same thing. I’m tired of saying it.”

“When gods fight, it’s the demons that suffer. Damn it, I’m fed up…”

Su Changyu furrowed his brows, this Yin Shangren was spouting nonsense and speaking enigmatically, leaving Su Changyu clueless about the speaker’s true intent.

“Oh well, one more time it is.”

Yin Shangren sat down and said, “The so-called Foundation Establishment is to build the foundation of the Tao. So, do you know what this Tao foundation is?”

“I used my own body as an object of wonder to establish my Tao foundation!”

His body split in two, revealing another face within the blood and organs.

Two faces, inside and out, spoke with one voice.

The narrative ended with two chilling smiles.

Initially, the shocking spectacle made Su Changyu rise to his feet in alarm. But upon seeing Yin Shangren returned to normal, he slowly sat back down.

“Building the Tao foundation with me…” An unusual light gleamed in Su Changyu’s eyes.

“So? Are you tempted?” Yin Shangren asked with a broad grin.

“Having the Tao Foundation perfectly align with oneself, mastering all divine techniques and powers.”

“From then on, no matter which technique or secret method you learn, you will understand and master it instantly.”

“You can punch the peerless genius and tread on the hidden grandmasters…”

“So why aren’t you taking action?”

Yin Shangren looked at Su Changyu with somewhat crazed eyes, speaking with an enticing tone.

However, surprisingly, Su Changyu managed to maintain his rationality and calm: “May I ask, sir, what is the price to pay for this?”

“If everyone could easily do the ‘Building Foundation with Me,’ wouldn’t talents be commonplace?”

“If everyone is a genius, then there would be no distinction between mediocrity and genius.”

Yin Shangren laughed crazily and pointed at the hundreds of corpses all over the ground: “These are the price!”

Su Changyu didn’t understand, choosing to remain silent.

“After I dissected hundreds of ‘me,’ and had enough certainty…”

“Only then did I begin to ‘Build Foundation with Me’ again.”

“Even so, it was still a hair away from perfect success.”

“Ordinary cultivators trying to ‘Building Foundation with Me,’ are merely courting death.”

Yin Shangren coldly explained with a mocking chuckle.

“The human body is at once both exquisite and complex.”

“How can ordinary people fully comprehend themselves to construct their own foundation?”

“It takes a rare genius to achieve this all on their own, without external help.”

Hearing this, Su Changyu finally understood.

He couldn’t help but feel a little disheartened.

Knowing others is wisdom, knowing oneself is enlightenment.

Su Changyu was very clear about his own cultivation talent.

He definitely couldn’t claim to be a genius.

He wasn’t even mediocre.

Even being called “mediocre” wouldn’t be too much.

To “[Building Foundation with Me]”, it was even more impossible now.

Yin Shangren saw the change in Su Changyu’s expression, and chuckled, “Little Su, don’t be disheartened.”

“At this moment, you coming to me is a sign of destiny.”

With these words, he extended his index finger and gently touched the center of Su Changyu’s eyebrow.

In an instant, countless images and knowledge flooded into Su Changyu’s spirit consciousness.

These were images and insights from Yin Shangren’s dissection of hundreds of Tao Foundation bodies.

Even more valuable was the process of “[Building Foundation with Me]”, and the semi-successful experience.

Receiving such a massive influx of information, Su Changyu felt overwhelmed for a moment.

His temples were throbbing incessantly, as if his head was about to split open.

But he knew that this chance encounter was perhaps the only life-changing opportunity he would ever get.

So, he gritted his teeth and persisted.

After a while, he slumped down on his chair, his body drenched in sweat.

Yin Shangren watched and shook his head repeatedly.

After a while, Su Changyu pulled himself together and performed a deep bow towards Yin Shangren.

“Thank you elder!”

“Hehe, no need to thank me.”

Yin Shangren revealed a mischievous grin, “Originally, you’ve given up hope on ‘[Building Foundation with Me]’.”

“Now, I’ve transferred my experiences to you, and suddenly you want to give it a go.”

“Remember, everyone is unique. What works for me might not work for you.”

“Maybe you’ll fail because of this and lose your life.”

“So, in a way, it’s my fault!”

Su Changyu said solemnly, “Life and death is destiny, wealth and rank are in Heaven’s hands.”

The smile on Yin Shangren’s face disappeared, “Good spirit.”

He bluntly said, “I’ve finished what I needed to, so you can leave now!”

Not expecting to be abruptly dismissed, Su Changyu was taken aback.

But since Yin Shangren had spoken, he didn’t want to overstay his welcome.

He bowed again and was about to leave.

Before leaving, seeing the bodies of Yin Shangren all over the floor, Su Changyu couldn’t help but ask, “Elder Yin, where did all these bodies come from?”

Yin Shangren looked around and his gaze became a bit lost.

“Yes, where did these bodies come from?”

“Ah! I remember now!”

“There was a big rain! Countless bodies fell from the sky like rain, and I just happened to collect some…”

Yin Shangren mumbled in a daze.

Hearing the response, Su Changyu felt a chill in his heart.

Not daring to stay any longer on this eerie island, he hurriedly departed.

Watching Su Changyu’s receding figure, Yin Shangren slowly returned to normal.

He touched his chest, where it seemed something precious was hidden.

After a long while, the extinguished flame started burning again.

Engulfing Yin Ying Island entirely.
