2181 Black Tiger Gang (3)
Zhao Hai wanted to monitor Black Tiger Mountain, but he realized that he couldn’t. Black Tiger Mountain was densely covered with all kinds of magical formations. These magical formations were very powerful. Even if liquid silver wanted to go there, he would have to be very careful. Otherwise, he would be discovered.
Moreover, most of the inner and core disciples, as well as the elders, lived on Black Tiger Mountain. It would be too dangerous for him to monitor Black Tiger Mountain, so Zhao Hai gave up on the plan.
The more Zhao Hai understood the black Tiger Gang, the more he feared the cultivation world. The service disciples of the black Tiger Gang were all at the core formation stage. The minimum requirement for outer sect disciples was to be at the dujie stage. In the cultivation world, they were called the spirit refining stage, which was the lowest level in the cultivation world.
The spirit cultivation stage was a ranking system in the cultivation world. It was the lowest level of cultivators. This spirit cultivation stage didn’t mean that one had to cultivate the soul or anything else. It meant that if one could obtain the power of faith, one could cultivate the power of cultivation.
The cultivation world had been researching the power of belief for many years. They had discovered that when one reached the spirit refining stage, one could officially cultivate the power of belief. However, the use and cultivation of the power of belief would not achieve the best results. Therefore, in the cultivation world, no one would let a spirit refining stage person cultivate the power of belief. Of course, the second generation of officials in the big sects were the exception. Those people were born to eat pills like candy, so cultivating the power of belief was nothing.
In the cultivation world, although the official level was the Dharma stage after the spirit refining stage, there was actually a Foundation establishment stage between the spirit refining stage and the Dharma stage. However, this Foundation establishment stage wasn’t officially passed down by the officials. In the cultivation world, the spirit refining stage was divided into ten levels, and after the ten levels, one could reach the foundation establishment stage. There were only two levels in the foundation establishment stage, and when one reached the second level of the foundation establishment stage, it was the best time to start cultivating the power of belief. The foundation establishment stage could only be considered a part of the spirit cultivation stage. You could also call them the foundation establishment stage and directly say that they were the 11th and 12th levels of the spirit cultivation stage.
However, some of the lower-level cultivators in the major sects still called the 11th and 12th levels of the spirit refining stage the foundation establishment stage. This was because to reach the 11th and 12th levels of the spirit refining stage was as difficult as passing through a barrier. It required the help of medicinal pills. For those upper-level cultivators and those heaven’s pride geniuses, this barrier was naturally not a problem. A few medicinal pills were enough. However, for the lower-level cultivators, it was very difficult. This was because the pills required to pass this level were extremely precious to the lower level cultivators. Many lower level cultivators were not stuck at the 10th level of spirit refinement their entire lives, and were unable to cultivate to the 11th and 12th levels. That was why the 11th and 12th levels of spirit refinement were called Foundation establishment.
Once they reached the second-tier of the foundation building stage, as long as they passed the sect’s assessment, they could officially enter the sect’s inner sect and be allocated power of belief. They could cultivate further and finally reach the Dharma stage, officially reaching the Dharma stage.
In the cultivation world, the foundation establishment stage was equivalent to the spirit division stage in the cultivation world. However, the foundation establishment disciples were much more powerful than the spirit division experts in the cultivation world. The black Tiger Gang had countless Foundation establishment disciples like them. Even the inner sect disciples who had reached the Dharma stage were in the tens of thousands. It was easy to imagine how many experts there were in the entire cultivation world. How could Zhao Hai dare to act rashly?
