A trace of tenderness flashed in the depths of Jin Li's eyes: "He is my friend."
After a pause, she added,
"I'm not very clear about his identity either."
The several Imperial Guards present were all somewhat moved.
Just what kind of extraordinary person was he?
"I didn't expect I could be so diligent."
"It seems the fine virtue of diligence of the people is still engraved in my genes."
Qi Yuan stretched his body, feeling very happy.
Today, the Puppet Cat hadn't even called him, and he was already awake.
"Sure enough, not playing games, going to bed early and waking up early, allows one to enjoy such a beautiful morning."
Just then, Jiang Lingsu's voice came: "Senior Brother, we've already finished our morning cultivation."
Qi Yuan felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this.
Jiang Lingsu continued, "But compared to the past few days, Senior Brother, you've improved.
If you can do as you said and no longer play those decadent games in the future, the future is promising."
"It's impossible not to play games," Qi Yuan flatly denied.
"Senior Brother, didn't you say you'd look after me in the future?" Jiang Lingsu smiled, "How will you protect me if you don't cultivate properly?
Don't cause trouble in the future and have your junior sister protect you."
"It's not bad for you to protect me either," Qi Yuan said, "The sentence I like to say the most is, 'If I become rich, I will not forget you'."
Jiang Lingsu rolled her eyes at Qi Yuan.
Then, Qi Yuan thought of something and took out the cultivation technique jade scroll: "Junior Sister, here's your jade scroll, thank you."
Jiang Lingsu took the jade scroll, a smile on her lips: "Senior Brother created his own cultivation technique?"
"Naturally," Qi Yuan said confidently, "It's just not perfect enough, it can only be cultivated to Qi Refining Completion. I need to supplement it to Foundation Establishment."
Jiang Lingsu was stunned upon hearing this, then laughed even more happily: "Senior Brother created his own cultivation technique in just two days, truly a genius!"
She was being insincere.
Because this was impossible.
Unless, rather than creating a cultivation technique, he had modified someone else's cultivation technique and called it his own.
Of course, that was also very impressive.
"Do you want to switch to cultivating the technique I created?" Qi Yuan said seriously, "The techniques you cultivate all have too many problems."
They might become nourishment for some existence.
Naturally, Qi Yuan wouldn't cultivate such a technique.
"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother, but no need."
Jiang Lingsu refused.
The cultivation method she practiced was a Heaven Rank technique; she would never change it.
"Senior Brother, judging by your attire, are you preparing to go down the mountain?"
"Yes." Qi Yuan nodded. "I'm preparing to create my own Foundation Establishment section of a technique, but unfortunately, I don't understand much about Foundation Establishment, especially the grades of Foundation Establishment. I'm planning to go down the mountain to listen to some large lectures about Foundation Establishment."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Lingsu became even more certain that what Senior Brother had said before was all a joke.
Not understanding much about Foundation Establishment, yet going to create a technique.
Could such a technique really be cultivated?
Before leaving, Jiang Lingsu kindly reminded him, "Senior Brother, techniques are the foundation of a cultivator, so don't modify them casually."
Half an hour later.
Qi Yuan sat upright in the Cultivation Hall for the large lecture.
He had arrived early and found a good spot.
Afterward, many disciples came in one after another. When they saw Qi Yuan, they all revealed puzzled expressions.
They lowered their voices and discussed quietly, "He's wearing a Purple Robe, so he's a true disciple. Why is he here attending this large lecture?"
"This isn't an ordinary Purple Robe. Look at his collar; there are nine golden threads. He's not an ordinary true disciple, but a peak's chief disciple!"
"What?"
The people here looked at Qi Yuan with awe and doubt.
After all, these large lectures were usually only attended by outer sect disciples and handyman disciples. Even inner sect disciples were rare, let alone true disciples.
In Shinguang Sect, disciples were divided into true disciples, formal disciples, and handyman disciples.
Handyman disciples had the lowest status. They could cultivate, but they had to perform menial tasks.
Formal disciples were further divided into inner sect disciples and outer sect disciples, both of whom formally joined a peak.
Once an inner sect disciple became a disciple of an elder, they would become a true disciple.
There were also differences among true disciples, mainly reflected in the strength of their masters.
As for the chief disciple of a peak, they were the true disciples among true disciples, and even ordinary elders wouldn't dare to offend them.
Such a chief disciple would naturally be taught by the Peak Lord, so why would they come to this kind of large lecture?
"He's Qi Yuan, the chief disciple of Seven Colors Peak!"
"It's actually him. As expected of the chief disciple, he's really handsome!"
After learning Qi Yuan's identity, these handyman disciples and formal disciples had different expressions, some with envy, some with awe, and some with jealousy.
"Why did he come here?"
"Rumor has it that he angered the Peak Master of Seven Colors Peak, so much so that the Peak Master shut himself up in the Seven Colors Hall. By the way, I only told you guys this news, don't spread it around."
"Offended the Peak Master, he's really bold!"
"I heard that the other direct disciples call Qi Yuan: Rebellious Disciple, Deceiving Master and Destroying Ancestors!"
The crowd discussed animatedly, and many attractive female disciples secretly glanced at Qi Yuan.
However, given Qi Yuan's behavior of deceiving his master, they didn't dare to be too blatant, lest they bring trouble upon themselves.
Qi Yuan sat in his seat, unable to help but sigh, "Indeed, handsome men are always the center of attention, no matter where they are."
About half an incense stick of time passed, and the deacon in charge of the lecture finally arrived late.
It was an old man whose body was halfway in the grave.
He saw Qi Yuan, paused slightly, and then a look of smugness flashed in his eyes.
He felt that it was because his lectures were so good that even this chief disciple came to listen to his class.
He decided that this lecture would have to be delivered with two hundred percent of his ability, it had to be high-end, with a sense of superiority, and he had to shock Qi Yuan.
Which is the so-called pretentious and empty talk.
"My name is Xu Renshan, and today I will teach you the key points about Foundation Establishment."
After Xu Renshan finished speaking, the disciples in the audience all looked serious.
Although their cultivation was still far from Foundation Establishment, it was important for them to know the information about Foundation Establishment in advance.
"Above Qi Refining is Foundation Establishment. Becoming Foundation Establishment allows you to become a deacon of my Shinguang Sect and enjoy offerings.
However, Foundation Establishment is extremely difficult, blocking many seekers of the Dao." As Xu Renshan spoke, a look of reminiscence appeared in his eyes.
Back then, he almost failed to establish his foundation.
"Foundation Establishment also has its levels.
You should all know that Foundation Establishment requires a Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object. Taking the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object as the foundation, one can build their own foundation.
The higher the grade of the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object, the better the effect of Foundation Establishment." Xu Renshan spoke eloquently.
Immediately, a disciple below interjected, "I know, Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects are divided into upper, middle, and lower grades, with the upper grade being the best and the lower grade being the worst."
Xu Renshan nodded in satisfaction, "The higher the level of the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object, the better the effect of Foundation Establishment.
You know that Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects have levels, but probably few people know that Foundation Establishment also has levels."
As soon as these words came out, many people in the audience focused their attention even more.
They really didn't know this.
Xu Renshan glanced at Qi Yuan's position, and seeing that Qi Yuan was also listening attentively, he was very proud.
"Foundation Establishment is divided into Mortal Grade Foundation Establishment, Spiritual Grade Foundation Establishment, Earth Vein Foundation Establishment, and Immortal Grade Foundation Establishment.
Generally, a low-grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object results in Mortal Grade Foundation Establishment. I am a Mortal Grade Foundation Establishment, wasting my life, with no hope of Core Formation, alas."
A mid-grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object can help one achieve a Spiritual Grade Foundation Establishment, and there's also a possibility of achieving an Earth Vein Foundation Establishment.
As for a high-grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object, it corresponds to an Earth Vein Foundation Establishment.
Rumor has it that above high-grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects, there are even higher-level Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects that can help one achieve an Immortal Grade Foundation Establishment!
An Immortal Grade Foundation Establishment represents the hope of becoming a true immortal."
Everyone in the arena breathed rapidly; who wouldn't want to become a true immortal?
"Of course, within each level of Foundation Establishment, there are also subdivisions."
Qi Yuan frowned and suddenly asked, "May I ask, teacher, is an Immortal Grade Foundation Establishment the best Foundation Establishment?"
Hearing the chief disciple of Seven Colors Peak ask him a question, Xu Renshan's beard almost stood on end.
"Not so, above the Immortal Grade Foundation Establishment, there is the legendary Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, which is the strongest Foundation Establishment."
"Then may I ask, teacher, what is a Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment?" Qi Yuan earnestly inquired.
Xu Renshan was stunned upon hearing this.
He was just a small Foundation Establishment cultivator; what did he know about the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment?
However, he still bit the bullet and said, "The so-called Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment is profound and unpredictable. I only have a guess or two. You can listen to it, but don't take it seriously."
After saying these words, Xu Renshan breathed a sigh of relief.
He began to make things up.
Anyway, he had said that this was just his guess and should not be taken seriously.
Moreover, this kind of thing would never be used by the disciples here in their entire lives.
Even if he made it up, no one would expose him.
Hearing this, Qi Yuan immediately focused all his attention.
He wanted to know what exactly a Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment was.
