Foundation Establishment Success

The two were not yet used to his unpredictable nature, and each nervously took a Foundation Establishment Pill, bowing in unison and saying, "Thank you, Boss."

Yue Qianchou laughed and said, "No need to thank me, hurry up and find a place to Foundation Establishment!"

The two immediately returned to their respective rooms in the bamboo hut, filled with excitement. Watching them leave, Yue Qianchou narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing within them. If anyone had actually chosen to leave just now, he would have killed them without hesitation. Besides fearing the secret would be leaked, he could also strongly sense that passing the Foundation Establishment stage would change one's future path.

He could guarantee that the two of them would successfully Foundation Establishment, because he had enough Foundation Establishment Pill, but he didn't need a disloyal subordinate.

After that little incident, if the two fail to Foundation Establishment, he will give them Foundation Establishment Pill again, one more time for each failure, until they succeed. He believes that repeated efforts are more touching than a one-time reward! This is also why he doesn't tell them he has many Foundation Establishment Pills. To become a true leader, necessary strategies are indispensable, and this isn't about targeting any particular person.

Coming to his senses, he took out a Foundation Establishment Pill, and with a light leap, he simply sat cross-legged on the stone platform. He turned his head and smiled at Bai Suzhen in the courtyard, opened his mouth and swallowed the Foundation Establishment Pill in one gulp. The pill was slightly bitter and sweet when it entered his mouth. Before he could savor the taste, it had already slid into his stomach. He slowly closed his eyes and began to circulate his internal energy to dissolve it.

Not long after, his body trembled as if struck by lightning, and a surge of heat flowed from his abdomen outwards, impacting every part of his body with great force and domineering power. The pill was refined by Yue Qianchou himself; he knew it was the effect of the Muscle Forging Grass within the Foundation Establishment Pill beginning to take hold. The Muscle Forging Grass's function was to destroy and then expand the various meridians in the body, making it one of the most important spirit medicine in the Foundation Establishment Pill. Equally important was the Ice Spirit Seed, which played a role in repairing the meridians.

At first, he felt a warm current, but then it felt like a volcano about to erupt, with wave after wave impacting every part of his body, causing him unbearable pain. After a while, Yue Qianchou felt a bit disoriented and on the verge of death. He hadn't expected the Foundation Establishment Pill to be so potent. He didn't know how he would be able to endure it if the effects of the entire Foundation Establishment Pill were to fully dissipate.

If he could see his own appearance at this moment, he would be horrified; black, sticky fluid began to seep from the pores all over his body. This was the first time Bai Suzhen had ever seen a person take elixirs to achieve Foundation Establishment. Yue Qianchou's agonizing expression made her frown slightly. She belonged to the Demon Path, Human Path, and did not need to take elixirs to improve her cultivation. However, Demon Path also had their own unique and painful methods for improving their cultivation, no less than those of humans.

Yue Qianchou really felt he couldn't hold on any longer; he was already in a semi-conscious state when suddenly a warm current flowed up his spine and into his brain, instantly clearing his muddled mind. The effects of Shou Xin Orchid's medicine had kicked in.

It would have been better if he hadn't woken up yet, because once he did, he could feel the pain his body was enduring even more clearly. At this point, he could no longer circulate his internal energy to dissolve the pills. All his True Qi had shrunk back into his Dantian, and his meridians had been damaged by the Muscle Forging Grass to the point that he could no longer circulate his internal energy normally. He was completely relying on the Foundation Establishment Pill to operate on its own.

Yue Qianchou smiled bitterly to himself. His body felt like it was being burned and roasted, and his insides felt like they were being torn apart by a thousand knives. Because of the effect of the Shou Xin Orchid, he was able to endure all of this while fully conscious. He estimated that it would take at least two or three hours to stop.

Just as he was in so much pain that he wanted to scream but couldn't, he didn't know how much time had passed when a cool sensation surged from his abdomen to his entire body. The Ice Spirit Seed that Yue Qianchou had been longing for finally took effect. His damaged meridians began to repair themselves, and wherever the coolness reached, the meridians gradually became intact. The internal heat began to dissipate, and the places inside his body that had been torn apart felt as if they were being gently caressed by a breeze. The comfortable feeling was indescribable, and Yue Qianchou felt so comfortable that he wanted to groan.

Time passed slowly, and with it came the medicinal effects of the King Kong Fruit, bringing waves of mild, numbing electric shocks that gradually spread along the meridians, stabilizing the damaged and repaired ones. This feeling was neither painful nor uncomfortable, a thousand times better than the domineering effects of the Muscle Forging Grass.

When all the sensations receded like the tide, Yue Qianchou felt drowsy. His whole body and mind felt very tired, and he wanted to sleep. The damage to his bodily functions and the rebuilding process had consumed too much of his vital energy. Fortunately, the century-old ginseng and century-old Ganoderma contained in the pill were great tonics for vital energy. Otherwise, he would have died long ago if he had relied solely on his internal vital energy.

Shaking his head to dispel the lingering drowsiness, he circulated his internal energy to examine his body, only to find the result extremely painful: his Foundation Establishment had failed. He had felt like his entire body was suffering, but in reality, only about one-tenth of his meridians had expanded again. In other words, a Foundation Establishment Pill had only helped Foundation Establishment the foundation in less than one-tenth of his body; in short, his Foundation Establishment had failed.

Helplessly opening his eyes, Yue Qianchou found Bai Suzhen standing right in front of him, her eyes questioning him. Yue Qianchou his head and smiled bitterly. As soon as he opened his mouth, he was startled by the sound he made. His voice was so hoarse that it didn't sound like his own. He swallowed hard, bracing himself for his own voice, and said, "Sister, we failed."

Bai Suzhen frowned.

At this moment, Guan Yu and Chen Feng also rushed out of the bamboo hut at the same time. The three people who had just completed their foundation building looked each other over, and then looked at themselves, and found that their whole bodies were covered with a layer of black, sticky substance.

All three of them, their voices hoarse, inquired about the success or failure of their Foundation Establishment, only to fail without exception. Yue Qianchou pointed to the Spirit Stone outside and said in a husky voice, "Don't be discouraged, everyone. Use the Spirit Stone to recover your strength first. I still have some Foundation Establishment Pill here." As he spoke, he took out two Foundation Establishment Pills and tossed them over. The two caught them, nodded with delight to express their gratitude, and quickly ran towards the Spirit Stone.

Yue Qianchou smiled apologetically at Bai Suzhen again, then took out Spirit Stone to restore his body. The latter shook her head slightly.

After regaining his strength, he swallowed another Foundation Establishment Pill, and the same pain began again. Judging from the results of his previous Foundation Establishment attempt, he figured he wouldn't succeed this time either, and as he expected, he failed again.

Guan Yu, dejected as he walked, also met his end, failing once again. Surprisingly, Chen Feng succeeded on his second attempt. Having successfully Foundation Establishment using two pills, Chen Feng was ecstatic, running to Yue Qianchou, who was sitting on the stone platform, and bowing deeply in Yue Qianchou.

Damn it! I've lost face big time this time. The boss is actually inferior to his underling.

Yue Qianchou cursed under his breath, feeling extremely ashamed. Fortunately, his face was covered by black slime, so his expression couldn't be seen. He tossed another Foundation Establishment Pill to Guan Yu and swallowed one himself.

In the end, the two unlucky fellows still failed. In Yue Qianchou threw Foundation Establishment Pill one by one to Guan Yu, and swallowed them himself, but he still failed time and time again.

When both of them had used their seventh Foundation Establishment Pill, Guan Yu let out a roar from inside the bamboo hut. He had succeeded too! He rushed out, knelt before Yue Qianchou, and prostrated himself, kowtowing several times with utmost sincerity. Seven Foundation Establishment Pill! Even if he had two Fu Xian Tokens and could return to Fu Xian Island twice, he would only obtain six Foundation Establishment Pills and still fail. He could never repay this kindness! This was his true feeling.

Yue Qianchou felt ashamed to face the two of them, but little did he know that Chen Feng, who had been cleansed of all evil, was secretly admiring his boss. The Foundation Establishment Pill, which cultivators True Person, were so plentiful that his boss was swallowing them one by one as if they were candy. Who in the entire Cultivation World was more awesome than his boss?

Foundation Establishment Pill are Foundation Establishment Pill after all, not candy. Taking too many will definitely have an effect. When the effects of the twelfth Foundation Establishment Pill were fully released, Yue Qianchou felt a jolt throughout his body. He felt as if he were floating on air, and all the cells in his body seemed to regenerate. The True Qi in his Dantian automatically surged into his meridians and circulated rapidly, constantly cycling and transforming into liquid True Essence, which was then returned to his Dantian.

His body felt so light, and the range of his Divine Sense had doubled. The wonderful feeling was something he couldn't experience while climbing the ranks of Qi Refining stage. Yue Qianchou knew he had succeeded. He sprang up from the stone platform, broke through the bamboo pavilion, and floated down into the courtyard.

He then let out a long roar to the sky, causing the entire Utopia to change color. The earth seemed to tremble and vibrate in unison with his powerful roar. Almost everyone in the courtyard felt unsteady on their feet. They were all shocked and didn't know why Yue Qianchou's successful Foundation Establishment would elicit such a reaction.
