Chapter 194 - 194: 194: Mid-stage Foundation Establishment

Celebration?

Is Foundation Establishment really worth celebrating?

Then, when he reaches the Golden Elixir or Yuanying stage in the future… wouldn’t he have to announce it to the whole world?

For just thinking about this attention-seeking matter, He Song felt like he was being watched by countless people, and that his secrets would be exposed in just a few minutes.

For someone as cautious as He Song a-

Less attention-seeking like this, the fewer the better, ideally none at all.

“It’s thanks to the support of my two friends that I could establish my foundation.”

“It’s just a small matter, there’s no need to be so concerned.”

“Today, I specifically came out to meet my two friends, not to celebrate building my foundation.”

“The path to cultivation is long; building a small foundation is hardly worth mentioning. ”

“As for the celebration, you two better not bring it up again.”

After quickly rejecting the goodwill of his two friends, He Song casually poured them each a cup of tea.

Then, his gaze turned to Meng Guan.

During this time of welcoming his friends back to the sect,

He always felt that there was something slightly off about Meng Guan.

But he couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was.

And it wasn’t appropriate to use his divine sense to investigate.

Therefore, when needing to change the subject, revealing his doubts became He Song’s first choice.

“By the way, since the beginning, I’ve sensed that there’s something wrong with Lao Meng; was he injured on the frontline?”

One is to change the topic.

The second is to satisfy his curiosity.

He Song quickly asked what he was thinking, and his gaze followed to Meng

Guan.

Meng Guan’s unusual behavior was indeed puzzling to him.

From the surface, there were no injuries on Meng Guan.

Moreover, there were no external signs caused by injuries.

But He Song always felt that something was wrong when he looked at him.

However, just as He Song voiced his doubts,

On one side,

Wei Fan and Meng Guan looked at each other, with a hint of strangeness flashing across their faces.

After a round of eyebrow communication,

In the end, it was still Wei Fan who spoke first.

“Fellow Daoist, you worry too much; Lao Meng hasn’t been injured.”

“But, you may not Imow, in the fifteen years since we were ordered to go to the

Mountain Immortal City, Lao Meng’s reputation has been quite impressive.”

“Before that, his dharma title, Master Duan Hun, had been revered among Qi Refining Masters in the Seven Star Sect.”

“It wasn’t until I went there that I realized how great Lao Meng’s reputation is.”

“Over the years, Lao Meng has gained quite a bit from his time on the frontlines.”

“Later, he even went to the territory controlled by the Seven Star Sect and made a fortune.”

“As a result… his cultivation base has surpassed ours by a bit.”

“He has reached the mid-stage Foundation Establishment.”

At this point,

It seemed that He Song’s expression was somewhat off,

Wei Fan quickly explained with another sentence.

“What you sensed that’s unusual about him should be the spiritual pressure caused by the mid-stage Foundation Establishment.”

“He only recently broke through to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and his control over his own strength is still not that strong.”

With a casual wave, Wei Fan spoke, a hint of envy appearing in his gaze toward Meng Guan.

Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

He had already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm for more than ten years, but he hadn’t even touched the threshold of the mid-stage Foundation Establishment stage.

But what about Meng Guan?

In just over twenty years since breaking through to Foundation Establishment, he had successfully broken through to the mid-stage.

Such a rapid breakthrough speed made Wei Fan, someone with four spirits roots, feel incredible.

After all,

He, Wei Fan, had four spirits roots.

As for Meng Guan? Meng Guan only had five spirits roots.

During the Qi Refining stage, Meng Guan managed to risk his life with his five spirits roots qualification and succeeded in entering the Foundation

Establishment Realm without relying on a Foundation Establishment Elixir or Foundation Establishment insights.

He, a cultivator with four spirits roots, also had a Foundation Establishment Elixir and Foundation Establishment insights, but he still failed once before entering the Foundation Establishment Realm.

At the Foundation Establishment Realm, Meng Guan raised his cultivation base to the Qi-refining mid-stage in just a few decades.

And what about him?

Now, Wei Fan had also been at the Foundation Establishment for more than ten years, but he hadn’t even touched the threshold of the mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

Comparing the two… the jealousy in Wei Fan’s heart could only be imagined.

At the same time, Wei Fan was sure that there must be secrets on Meng Guan.

Otherwise, Meng Guan’s cultivation would not have progressed so quickly.

However,

Which cultivator doesn’t have some secrets?

Meng Guan’s cultivation has now reached the mid-stage Foundation Establishment, so it shouldn’t be too difficult to keep his secrets.

If someone truly wants to investigate,

They might end up knocking out their own teeth.

As for Wei Fan,

Although he was envious, Meng Guan was his close friend; the higher Meng Guan’s cultivation base, the better it was for him.

There was no need for him to covet anything. As Meng Guan’s cultivation improved quickly,

Wei Fan’s cultivation shouldn’t be far behind either.

After all,

As they pushed on to the Seven Star Sect’s core territories and incorporated the Immortal Pavilion into the Thick Earth Sect’s control,

He was also part of the accompanying personnel, receiving no small amount of resources.

“Mid-stage Foundation Establishment?”

“He advanced to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment so quickly?”

“It seems that Lao Meng has gained a lot in the Mountain Immortal City over the years.”

“Wei has also heard that some years ago, he fought all the way to the lair of the

Seven Star Sect.”

“It looks like I missed a lot of opportunities by breaking through the

Foundation Establishment Realm a few years later.”

Off to the side,

After hearing Wei Fan’s words, He Song wore a stunned look on his face.

Even his words deliberately expressed his surprise.

At the same time, there was a hint of regret for not having seized the opportunity.

However, deep down,

He was not too surprised by Meng Guan’s breakthrough to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

As early as when Meng Guan was still at the Qi-refining late stage and had not yet entered the Foundation Establishment Realm, He Song had sensed that there might be a secret on Meng Guan.

Otherwise, how could a Five Spirits Roots cultivator advance his cultivation from the seventh-tier Qi Refining to Qi Refining great perfection in just over a decade?

At that time, he did not think about what kind of secret it could be.

But He Song already had expectations in his heart.

Moreover, Meng Guan’s rapid rise in cultivation seemed to be inextricably linked to the wars.

Therefore, when he learned that Meng Guan’s cultivation had broken through to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment, He Song became more certain of his previous guess.

There must be something that allows him to advance his cultivation rapidly in war.

However, due to limited information, He Song could not surmise what it could be.

Nonetheless, He Song did not have any curiosity about Meng Guan’s secret.

Which cultivator doesn’t have some secrets?

At the very least, those who can become cultivators would possess cultivation skills that can integrate Qi into their bodies.

Such skills were also considered secrets when they were still mortal.

Perhaps before entering the Cultivation World, they received the legacy of a predecessor and gained many benefits from it.

If one were to obtain the legacy of a Foundation Establishment Master,

Then perhaps the path of cultivation during the Qi Refining stage would be smooth.

Those cultivators who search everywhere for opportunities are not uncommon even within the Thick Earth Sect.

There are Foundation Establishment legacies, Qi Refining legacies, and perhaps various other opportunities.

If all the secrets within them were revealed, it would likely cause a huge uproar within the Thick Earth Sect.

Upon their death, cultivators would often leave their lifelong gains to their successors.

This is why there are so many people in the Cultivation World who are eager to find opportunities.

The secret on Meng Guan may also be related to these opportunities.

As for where it came from,

He Song didn’t know.

“Fellow Daoist, don’t be disheartened. Although such destructive wars are rare, our sect is strong and there may be more in the future.”

“At that time, perhaps you can still gain more opportunities.”

Seeing the regret on He Song’s face, Meng Guan immediately offered some comforting words.

He thought that He Song was regretting not having seized an opportunity.

Little did he know,

Even if the Thick Earth Sect were to launch another war for extermination, He Song would not go to the battlefield. He might even run away on the spot.

With He Song’s caution,

Even if it meant giving up the so-called opportunity, he would not participate in any war of extermination.

Of course,

He Song just laughed at Meng Guan’s words of comfort and then moved on to another topic.

Next, He Song, Wei Fan, and Meng Guan enjoyed a feast in He Song’s cave mansion.

The two men occasionally discussed war information between the Thick Earth

Sect and the Seven Star Sect,

As well as various incidents they encountered in the Mountain Immortal City.

This included the recent events surrounding the four Golden Elixir Masters’ discussions.

He Song listened with great interest.

But after several days had passed, the three of them, although having a great time, returned to their respective cave mansions. When Meng Guan and Wei Fan each returned to their cave mansions,

He Song activated the Purple Cloud Heavenly Array,

Changed the tea on the table,

And then,

He sat down by the table, his face showing a thoughtful expression. Meng Guan and Wei Fan had already returned to the sect.

Other Thick Earth Sect Foundation Establishment Masters should have returned too.

However, there should still be some Foundation Establishment Masters from the Thick Earth Sect left in the territory previously occupied by the Seven Star Sect.

Those areas were now under the control of the Thick Earth Sect, and it was only natural for them to stay behind and take control.

But, would the other sects around the Thick Earth Sect and Seven Star Sect just sit by and watch the Seven Star Sect move and the Thick Earth Sect’s power double?

Would they not be afraid that once the Thick Earth Sect had expanded its territory and enhanced its foundation, it would wage war against them and take over their lands?

Why didn’t they support the Seven Star Sect?

Logically speaking, the Seven Star Sect had existed for thousands or even tens of thousands of years and should have had one or two allies, right? Even if the Seven Star Sect was a Demon Sect, it should have allies.

Furthermore,

Why did the Golden Elixir Master from the Nascent Soul Upper Sect come to the Seven Star Sect’s entrance at this time, and why did Master Tian Shu of the Seven Star Sect activate the Sect Protection Array?

In the end, what exactly did the four Golden Elixir Masters discuss during their sit-down?

why did master than shu of the seven star sect feel compelled to take action, yet, due to the overpowering strength of the two Golden Elixir Masters from the Thick Earth Sect, he could only helplessly sit back down?

What exactly did they talk about?
