“Ahem! Ahem!” When Ling Qingyun sensed the arrival of Zhou Yun and the others, he coughed lightly.

The elders who were still bawling immediately stopped their discussion. They were too engrossed in their conversation just now and did not realize that Zhou Yun had arrived. Thinking about what they had just said, the few elders blushed.

Especially the elder who wanted Zhou Yun to help him refine a hundred cauldrons of pills for free just now, he wished he could hide behind the other elders!

“Zhou Yun, it looks like you’ve fully consolidated your gains from the secret realm. Great!” Seeing Zhou Yun’s smooth breathing and stabilized cultivation level, Ling Qingyun was very satisfied.

“I called you here today to discuss the matter of your foundation establishment. These elders are all experts of Spirit Valley, and they have come specifically for your foundation establishment.” Ling Qingyun’s words had allowed the embarrassed elders to heave a sigh of relief.

“That’s right. Foundation establishment is like a thousand people with a thousand faces. It’s not an easy task to find the most suitable and perfect foundation establishment method,” said an elder.

“But don’t worry, the foundation establishment methods of a dozen of us cover different directions of the ancient methods of the foundation establishment. If we work together, we’ll definitely be able to find a method that suits you!” Another elder added.

Zhou Yun looked at Ling Qingyun and saw him nodding his head. He then turned to the elders and said, “I, Zhou Yun, would like to thank all the elders in advance.”

He had originally thought that so many elders had gathered in the sect leader’s hall because of the heretic cultivator matter. However, it seemed that sect leader Ling Qingyun did not want to discuss this matter any further. Thus Zhou Yun tactfully did not dwell on it.

After all, if the sky collapsed, there would be someone tall to hold it up. It was good that Meng Fei’ang had died. It was revenge for what had happened in the secret realm!

“By the way, is this the glory disciple, Zhou Yun? You do look a bit handsome like me when I was younger.” An elder walked up and sized up Zhou Yun.

“The legendary tenth layer of Qi cultivation. I wonder how the Qi in the body works.” Another elder touched Zhou Yun’s body, which almost made Qiao’er pull out her sword, but was held back by Su Wanyi.

“By the way, are you still a virgin? After all, you’re also a bit handsome like me, and you might have already lost your virginity long ago. Whether you’re still a virgin is very important information!” said one of the elders as he stroked his chin.

“You! How dare you harass my Brother Zhou Yun? Even I have never done this!” When Qiao’er saw Zhou Yun being manipulated by the elders and asked all sorts of questions, she was full of jealousy!

“Qiao’er, Su Wanyi, they’re only confirming the important matters of foundation establishment. Don’t worry. You two, follow me to the meeting hall.” Ling Qingyun shook his head. With a pinch of his fingers, Qiao’er was frozen in place. Qiao’er stared at Su Wanyi as she was carrying her into the meeting hall with Ling Qingyun.

“Ahem.” After a long time, the elders let go of Zhou Yun with a cough.

“The ancient method of foundation establishment is very simple. You can just forcefully break through. To play safe, you can also take a foundation establishment pill and you only need half a day or a few days to reach the foundation establishment stage. This is also the cultivation method used by the majority of the people in the immortal cultivation world.

“However, if you want to lay down the foundation of the Great Path and find the most suitable method for your foundation establishment, you have to establish your foundation for a hundred days, practice the method a thousand times, and suffer a lot of pain before you achieve the foundation establishment.”

An elder slowly said. It was the Grand Elder whom Zhou Yun was familiar with!

“Zhou Yun, although the two foundation establishment methods are different, after the core formation, there is a chance for the Golden Core Body Cleansing. This is also why many people choose the ancient method of foundation establishment,” said Sir Pill, slowly explaining to Zhou Yun the difference and benefits between the perfect foundation establishment and the ancient method of foundation establishment.

After a long time, Zhou Yun finally understood.

The ancient method of foundation establishment was simple, but it had the weakness of its much lower combat power. It could only unleash 70% or 80% of one’s strength, and the consumption of spiritual energy was too high.

As for the perfect foundation establishment, not only could one perfectly display 100% of his strength, but one could also over-unleash his combat power. It could be said that every person with a perfect foundation establishment was basically invincible in the same stage!

However, to go through such great pain to achieve the perfect foundation establishment, the only gain was the slightly stronger combat power. And when one obtained the golden core, through Golden Core Body Cleansing, one could also improve his spirit root and combat power!

“In other words, the perfect foundation establishment only increases the combat power of the foundation establishment stage?” said Zhou Yun summarizing his understanding.

“That’s right. Now, it’s up to you if you’re willing to go through all kinds of hardships to proceed with this foundation establishment,” said Sir Pill. “If you’re not willing, we won’t force you. After all, perfect foundation establishment sounds nice, but it’s only being powerful for a short while.”

At this moment, the sect leader’s hall was in total silence. All the elders present held their breaths waiting for Zhou Yun’s reply.

“I’ll go for the perfect foundation establishment!” Zhou Yun naturally chose the perfect foundation establishment! After all, he had suffered from the pain of not having the qualifications. How could he give up this opportunity now?

“Good! As expected of a glory disciple of our Spirit Valley!” Grand Elder cheered! “I forgot to mention something. Only those with a perfect foundation establishment have the chance to condense a flawless golden core.

“And in the entire Spirit Valley, only the sect leader, Ling Qingyun, has condensed a flawless golden core!”

Zhou Yun fell silent. Did he forget to mention it? He was clearly testing him!

“Don’t worry, this is just a test by Elder Zuo out of unwillingness.” While laughing, Grand Elder took over the spiritual weapons that Elder Zuo handed over unwillingly. He had gained a lot from the bet with Elder Zuo!

“All elders, let’s work harder to speed up the progress to allow Zhou Yun to participate in the big competition in time!” Grand Elder waved his sleeve, and dozens of spiritual weapons flew out!

There were the Yin and Yang compass, flags of five gates and eight trigrams, 36 golden darts, and so on!

These spiritual weapons were flying in the air, dazzling Zhou Yun!

“Hold on! What are we speeding up? What competition participation?” Before Zhou Yun could react to Grand Elder’s words, the spiritual weapons that filled the sky had pounced toward him!

On the other end, in the meeting hall, Qiao’er and Su Wanyi were waiting for Ling Qingyun’s instructions.

“After three months, our Spirit Valley, the Myriad Flower School, the Heavenly Star Institute, the Autumn Path School, and the Cherishing Jade Sect will have a big competition among the five great sects. This is a matter of great importance. We will need three foundation establishment disciples and 10 Qi cultivation disciples.” Ling Qingyun said softly, pointing to the map in the meeting hall in which the five great sects were facing each other across the mountains.

“The rewards for this big competition are generous. Moreover, it’s very important for Disciple Lingyun who is going to break through to the golden core stage after six years of closed-door seclusion. Our Spirit Valley must acquire several leading positions. For the foundation establishment stage, I plan to let the two of you and Zhou Yun participate,” Ling Qingyun said.

“Senior Sister Lingyun? She’s going to break through to the golden core stage?” Su Wanyi couldn’t help but say. She had joined the sect much earlier than Qiao’er, so she naturally knew Senior Sister Lingyun!

Even when Su Wanyi mentioned Senior Sister Lingyun, her face couldn’t help but show an expression of admiration!

“Senior Sister, who is Senior Sister Lingyun?” Qiao’er asked curiously. This was the first time she had seen her Senior Sister Su Wanyi show such an expression of admiration.

“Senior Sister Lingyun was my senior sister formerly! She’s also the sect leader’s direct disciple!” A rare look of admiration appeared on Su Wanyi’s face.
