Dao Foundation

The Way means the Great Way.

The way of cultivating martial arts to strengthen the body, the way of preserving health and extending one's lifespan: none of these is the Great Way. The Great Way means comprehending heaven, earth, and nature, controlling the transformations of the six qi, flying through the heavens and burrowing into the earth, casting techniques across a thousand miles, mastering ten thousand arts, and seeking immortality. Only this is the Great Way.

The Foundation means the cornerstone.

To build a tower, earth and stone are the foundation; to practice martial arts, sinews and bones are the foundation; to gain the world, the people's hearts are the foundation; to seek the Great Way, one must first build an Dao Foundation. The Dao Foundation consists of the seven foundations of water, fire, wind, thunder, blazing, darkness, and light. These seven foundations cannot be seen by mortal eyes or touched by mortal hands. Only secret techniques or cultivators can perceive them.

In the Dutiān Immortal Realm, the qi of Taihua is abundant, and everyone is born with an immortal nature. Sooner or later, the Dao Foundation will awaken. Everyone possesses the aptitude for cultivation.

The story of this book begins with a young man in the Dutiān Immortal Realm who dreams of cultivating immortality.
