    No wonder there were always two voices when Yin Shangren spoke.


    It turns out there is another “him” inside his body!


    This eerie scene shocked Li Fan.


    Luckily, Yin Shangren seemed to realize the horror of his original form and after a brief disy, his bodypressed back to its original shape.


    He continued, “I used myself as an experiment to confirm my hypothesis. Everything that exists between heaven and earth can be viewed as a unformed oddity.”


    “The process of smelting in the World’s Furnace, I call it ‘Transmutation’.”


    “However, attempting to build the Tao Foundation with these unformed oddities requires us toplete the unfinished transmutation process by ourselves.”


    “The difficulty of this is quite enormous. If unsessful, one may die on the spot. Even if one luckily escapes death, various bizarre changes would ur in the body.”


    “Like the way I am now.” Yin Shangren chuckled grimly.


    Li Fan couldn’t help asking, “Didn’t you say you seeded in foundation establishment?”


    “I was sessful, but notpletely. Myck of understanding of myself caused my efforts to fail at thest moment.” Yin Shangren said regretfully.


    “If I had a few more… No, one more chance. If I could have one more chance, I could perfect the [Art of Self-Founded Cultivation].”


    “[Art of Self-Founded Cultivation]?” Li Fan heard these words and couldn’t help but feel a stir within. “What happens if one seeds in self-founded cultivation?”


    Yin Shangren’s eyes were filled with yearning, “That would be equivalent to reshaping the body with the power of the World’s Furnace. This body would be the best constitution I can imagine.”


    “There is a saying, only what suits best is the best. Nowadays, cultivators always find Natural Treasures that match their aptitude during foundation establishment, to maximize the power of the treasures.”


    “But, no matter what level of Natural Treasure it is, even if it is the legendary


    Heaven’s Oddity, it is certainly notparable to [Art of Self-Founded Cultivation]!”


    “Think about it, what could suit you more than yourself?”


    “The Tao Foundation perfectly integrates with oneself, and all divine techniques belong to oneself.”


    “From then on, any technique will be mastered upon learning, perfected upon understanding…”


    Seeing the more excited Yin Shangren, Li Fan interrupted him.


    “All of that is just your spection, right?”


    Yin Shangren paused for a moment, then rapidly shook his head. “Although I onlypleted half of the process of [Art of Self-Founded Cultivation], I can clearly feel that all aspects of myself, including cultivation aptitude, understanding of techniques, affinity with Spiritual Energy, and even cognitive agility have greatly improved..”


    “I am nothing like before!”


    Seeing his off-the-wall speech, Li Fan asked again, “If [Art of Self-Founded


    Cultivation] is so effective, then what’s the sess rate?”


    Yin Shangren exined: “Considering my near sess on the first try, the sess rate must not be low.”


    “You must believe me! This conclusiones after dissecting hundreds of


    Foundation Establishment cultivators and researching intently for decades. There’s no way it can be wrong. When you reach foundation establishment, you must try it!” Yin Shangren looked at Li Fan passionately.


    “Okay, I’ll definitely try it… wait, did you say you dissected hundreds of Foundation Establishment cultivator corpses?” Li Fan’s heart skipped a beat, and he blurted out.


    “Yes, don’t you believe me? They’re all lying in my basement. Shall I take you there to meet them?” Yin Shangren asked.


    “No, thank you for your offer. I am just curious about where exactly those hundreds of deceased Foundation Establishment cultivators came from?”


    “Huh?” Yin Shangren pondered for a while, but his eyes became confused.


    “Right, where did I get all these bodies from? Strange, why can’t I remember…” he mumbled to himself.


    Li Fan had figured out the answer, and quickly said, “If you don’t remember, it’s alright.”


    “Okay.” Yin Shangren nodded, seeming to agree with him deeply.


    “Thank you for answering my questions. Now that all my doubts are clear, I won’t disturb you any longer.”


    As soon as he heard Yin Shangren say “everything in heaven and earth can be regarded as unformed oddities,” Li Fan felt a realization, and the bottleneck that had been bothering him was immediately dissipated.


    As long as he had the Natural Treasure, he could immediately start his foundation establishment.


    Now that his goal had been achieved, Li Fan didn’t want to stay here any longer.


    Althouzh Yin Shangren mav not mean harm, the atmosphere here was unbearable.


    So, Li Fan decided to bid farewell decisively.


    Regardless of Yin Shangren’s attempts to dissuade him, he declined them all.


    “You must remember to try my [Art of Self-Founded Cultivation] method!” Before saying goodbye, Yin Shangren still did not forget to urge him sincerely.


    Li Fan promised repeatedly, then quickly sped away. For a long time, watching the departing figure of Li Fan, Yin Shangren murmured, “You must try it, I really didn’t lie to you.” After a while, he fell silent again.


    He turned back to the huge rectangr transparent cage.


    All four corners were turned into a pool of flesh and blood, without a single survivor.


    “What a shame, none of them managed to survive.” He seemed to regret it a bit. “I don’t have many experiment subjects left, and it looks like I have to go out again.”


    In the four cages, the flesh and blood of the ordinary people were removed with a squeaking sound.


    A new batch of experimental subjects appeared in the cages.


    The painful wailing echoed once again.


    Yin Shangren had long been ustomed to this and there was no change in his expression.


    He stared intently at the cage in front of him, tightly holding the rib in his arms.


    With an almost pathological tone, he muttered: “Don’t worry, I will avenge you. I will definitely find the one who created the Immortal -Ordinary Miasma, and avenge you…”


    “I will definitely find him, I will definitely…”


    The whisper of Yin Shangren echoed once again in this eerie building.


    Ten Thousand Immortals Ind.


    Returning to the Tianxuan Mirror, Li Fan started to look up [Art of Self-Founded Cultivation].


    It didn’t look like any secret at all.


    All cultivators ignored it and didn’t believe in it.


    That’s because all those who believed it were killed when trying to establish their foundation.


    “[Art of Self-Founded Cultivation]…” Li Fan, of course, didn’t believe all that Yin Shangren said.


    However, one point was clear, “everything on earth and in heaven can be viewed as unformed oddities.”


    Li Fan agreed there was no problem with that statement.


    So, the question arose, the [Real] that he relied on for countless reincarnations and rebirths… was it a Natural Treasure?


    Could he build a Tao Foundation based on [Real]?
