"Heh, Fellow Daoist Wang Chan, your aptitude for cultivation truly astonishes me. In just two years apart, you've already nearly reached Foundation Establishment Late Stage."
Seated cross-legged atop the mountain, Li Qing welcomed Wang Chan and Uncle Fu inside. He did not expose Wang Chan's identity as a woman, instead directing the conversation toward her cultivation.
To be honest, Li Qing had truly been frightened by her talent. When he had seen her two years ago, she had only just entered the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Yet now, her cultivation had already approached Foundation Establishment Late Stage, and she could cross that threshold at any moment.
Even if you were a remnant of the Ancient Hua Immortal Dynasty, wasn't this rate of progress a little too terrifying?
Back when Li Qing had first succeeded in Foundation Establishment, he had secluded himself in his cave abode for two years of bitter cultivation, yet his cultivation had not budged an inch.
Wang Chan merely laughed softly. "Senior Li, you flatter me. Compared to you, this little achievement of mine is not considered anything."
Hearing this, Li Qing immediately caught the hidden meaning in her words.
"There's no need to call me Senior. If not for the Purple Mansion Spirit Liquid you gave me beforehand, my Core Formation might not have gone so smoothly."
"Besides, judging by your current cultivation progress, Core Formation should be no obstacle for you either."
As he spoke, Li Qing patted his Storage Bag.
At some unknown time, a dark crimson Red Crystal had appeared in his hand, its color incomparably deep!
Upon seeing this dark crimson Red Crystal, Wang Chan's eyes went wide, and her body began trembling uncontrollably.
"Master Li truly keeps his word. I deeply admire you!"
A Third-tier Red Crystal!
