The final stage of alchemy is solidifying the pill.
"Solidify!"
With a gesture, Pill Master Ge ford a spell, using Divine Sense to solidify the pill.
Colorful light ascended from the pill furnace, with surrounding Spiritual Qi violently surging.
As he unveiled the pill furnace, three spirit pills enveloped in colorful divine light fell into Pill Master Ge’s hands.
All three elixirs were round and full, adorned with delicate dicinal patterns, exuding a srizing fragrance.
Pill Master Ge was overjoyed, carefully extracting one Foundation Establishnt Pill from them.
It was crystal clear, with no less than six dicinal patterns on it!
"A high-quality Foundation Establishnt Pill!"
Pill Master Ge couldn’t help but exclaim aloud.
Not far away, Shen Xuan, Qin Yuehan, Lv Zhengying, and further back, Lei Yaoyang, all showed expressions of surprise.
An ordinary Foundation Establishnt Pill only increases the Foundation Establishnt probability by about twenty percent.
A high-quality Foundation Establishnt Pill, however, can boost the probability by around thirty percent.
Although it seems like only a ten percent difference,
To a cultivator, it is as vast as the sky and the abyss.
Seeing the delighted face of Pill Master Ge, Shen Xuan couldn’t help but have many thoughts in his heart.
He hadn’t wasted so much effort collecting Foundation Establishnt Materials in vain.
He also owed favors to Qin Yuehan and Lv Zhengying, and asked a sect Pill Master to refine the Foundation Establishnt Pill.
"Congratulations to Pill Master Ge for refining a high-quality Foundation Establishnt Pill!"
Lei Yaoyang greeted him with a smile.
But there was still a trace of regret in his heart.
Unfortunately, it was a Water Attribute one.
Among Foundation Establishnt cultivators, Water Cultivators hold the lowest status.
Similarly,
The Water Attribute Foundation Establishnt Pill is also the cheapest among Foundation Establishnt Pills.
"Haha! This was an extraordinary performance by this old man. Fellow Daoist Shen’s Demon Core was of excellent quality."
Pill Master Ge’s face was flushed with joy, unable to put it down.
He played with it for a while before handing it over to Shen Xuan.
Lei Yaoyang looked it over but did not speak.
Shen Xuan quickly secured this high-quality Foundation Establishnt Pill.
It seed Pill Master Ge only then recognized Lei Yaoyang.
"Elder Lei, what brings you to this old man?"
"Oh, it’s a small matter. A friend of mine would like you to help refine a pill."
Pill Master Ge nodded.
"One mont, please."
Pill Master Ge took one of the two remaining Foundation Establishnt Pills for himself.
He accepted ten thousand Spirit Stones from Shen Xuan, then handed him an ordinary Foundation Establishnt Pill.
After the transaction was complete,
Shen Xuan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Pill Master Ge, for your help in refining the Foundation Establishnt Pill. I have other pressing matters, so I will take my leave and will co to thank you specially another day."
Pill Master Ge waved his hand, "Fellow Daoist Shen, you’re too polite! It’s just an alchemy transaction. The transaction is complete, feel free to go as you please, Fellow Daoist Shen!"
At this mont, Lei Yaoyang suddenly opened his mouth to speak.
"Hey, you’re called Shen Xuan, and you’re a Talisman Master, right!"
"Just now, you acquired two Foundation Establishnt Pills, how about selling one to ?"
"Don’t worry, you won’t be at a disadvantage! Twenty-five thousand Spirit Stones, that’s a fair price, isn’t it!"
Looking at the proud deanor of Lei Yaoyang, Shen Xuan couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile.
A direct disciple of a True Master, and a Thunder Cultivator.
Lei Yaoyang’s status and position were evident.
Shen Xuan really didn’t want to offend him.
Even though he sensed Lei Yaoyang had ulterior motives towards Qin Yuehan.
He felt displeased in his heart,
But he couldn’t act out.
"Elder Lei, Fellow Daoist Shen has been a good friend of Yuehan’s for many years. Please, on behalf of Yuehan, do not trouble him!"
Yuehan said solemnly.
"Oh, is that so!"
Lei Yaoyang sized up Shen Xuan, then quickly turned his gaze to Qin Yuehan.
A smile spread across his face.
"Immortal Qin, you’ve spoken too gravely! A re Water Attribute Foundation Establishnt Pill, I, Lei, don’t care much for it. If he doesn’t want to sell it, then that’s that!"
Foundation Establishnt Pills are strategic resources strictly controlled by the sect.
Even if not in imdiate use, they can be exchanged for valuable cultivation spiritual objects.
Shen Xuan had no intention of selling.
And certainly not at a discount.
At present, he wasn’t qualified to contend with Lei Yaoyang.
So he had Qin Yuehan intercede.
Lei Yaoyang certainly had a high position.
But that didn’t an he could freely humiliate Qin Yuehan.
The Cyan Cloud Sect is a reputable Daoist Sect, and openly, it still observes rules.
Forcing a sale, Lei Yaoyang wasn’t in the right.
"Yuehan thanks Elder Lei."
"If Yuehan acquires a Water Attribute Foundation Establishnt Pill, I will sell it to Elder Lei at this price."
Qin Yuehan perford a courteous bow, offering him a graceful exit.
"Immortal Qin, you’re too polite!"
"I’m not in a rush for the Water Attribute Foundation Establishnt Pill. However, there is one matter, I wish to discuss with Immortal Qin..."
Lei Yaoyang lowered his voice, transmitting his words to Qin Yuehan.
Qin Yuehan furrowed her brows slightly, seeming a bit impatient, but she didn’t refuse outright.
Shen Xuan and Lv Zhengying exchanged glances.
Quickly left.
He didn’t want to offend Lei Yaoyang.
Nor did he want to sell the Foundation Establishnt Pill cheaply.
While Qin Yuehan held him back.
The best strategy was to leave.
With Shen Xuan’s current flesh, spiritual power, and divine soul, he only needed an ordinary Foundation Establishnt Pill to have a ninety-nine percent chance of establishing his Dao Foundation.
However, what Qi Cultivation cultivator wouldn’t hope for a higher probability of Foundation Establishnt, and a better quality Dao Foundation!
Lei Yaoyang’s words and actions were disrespectful, his attitude contemptuous.
He claid it was a fair offer.
But in truth, Foundation Establishnt Pills were priceless beyond twenty-five thousand Spirit Stones.
Lei Yaoyang’s actions suggested a sense of taking by force.
Moreover, his intentions seed to lie elsewhere.
...
Inside Pill Master Ge’s living room.
Lei Yaoyang continued transmitting words with Qin Yuehan.
His ntor was a Golden Core True Master of the sect.
He held a transcendent status.
Lei Yaoyang had a high probability of forming a core in the future.
He was likely to enter the core high ranks of Cyan Cloud Sect.
Forcing the purchase of the Foundation Establishnt Pill, pressing Shen Xuan, was just to make Qin Yuehan ask him for sothing.
Over a decade ago, having heard of Qin Yuehan establishing her foundation, Lei Yaoyang developed an interest in her.
Several tis, he suggested through interdiaries that he was willing to marry her as his third concubine.
Each ti, Qin Yuehan courteously declined.
Despite outward appearances, Lei Yaoyang harbored resentnt.
As a Core Formation Seed of the sect, Lei Yaoyang felt he was honoring Qin Yuehan.
Offering her the position of a concubine wife.
Unexpectedly, Qin Yuehan repeatedly refused him.
Filling him with a pent-up rage, with no outlet to vent.
Today, he heard that Qin Yuehan ca forward specifically on behalf of a Loose Cultivator.
So he found an excuse to see for himself.
The rumored individual turned out to be an over-eighty-year-old Qi Cultivation Loose Cultivator.
Lei Yaoyang didn’t care to take him seriously.
He thought, Shen Xuan was too old, his vitality diminishing, making establishing a Dao Foundation difficult.
Even if he were to establish his foundation out of sheer luck, he was of no concern.
Qi Cultivation Loose Cultivators are simply individuals to be readily humiliated.
At this ti, he was unaware that he had already been blacklisted by Shen Xuan.
...
After walking out of Pill Master Ge’s cave mansion, a cold smile touched Shen Xuan’s lips.
"This Lei Yaoyang, using to sche against Qin Yuehan, how shaless!"
"A direct disciple of a True Master, a Thunder Cultivator, so what!"
"One day, I shall repay tenfold!"
Shen Xuan silently buried the grudge deep within his heart.
In the long years of Immortal Cultivation, he would not forget Lei Yaoyang.
When his strength improved, he would surely seek his revenge!
...
At the small Gu Feng, Cold Moon Pavilion.
This was Qin Yuehan’s residence, a Tier Two Middle Grade Spiritual Land.
The concentration of Spiritual Qi and its safety made it suitable as a Foundation Establishnt Secret Chamber.
Under the watchful and concerned eyes of Qin Yuehan, Shen Xuan calmly entered the Practice Room.
Everything was ready: Foundation Establishnt Pill, Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Objects, Foundation Establishnt Secret Chamber, Heart-Protecting Pill.
Outside, Qin Yuehan and Lv Zhengying guarded for him.
Inside the Practice Room.
Shen Xuan sat cross-legged, slowly entering a state of ditation.
He entered a wonderful state of Unity of Heaven and Man.
Half a month later.
With a sudden inspiration, Shen Xuan sensed a breakthrough opportunity.
He no longer hesitated.
He first perford the [Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil Technique] several tis in succession.
Feeling assured.
He then activated the [Divine Hidden Sea Technique], Spiritual Power surging like a vast sea, gathering towards the Dantian.
"Though already at the ripe age of eighty-five, the foundation will surely be established successfully!"
"Strive to enhance the quality of the Dao Foundation!"
Shen Xuan’s eyes were as sharp as lightning, radiating with assurance!
