Chapter 118: Chapter 117: Protecting the Law

He Song and Wei Fan didn’t have their roots in Green Wall Immortal City, so naturally, they followed Meng Guan’s lead and dressed accordingly.

With that,

Under the condition that no one knew the identity of others, the three of them participated in this small-scale auction together.

However, since the three of them only needed to bid for one Vein Protection Elixir and they had enough spirit stones, there were no major ups and downs during the event.

He Song barely had time to observe the auction scene, listen to Meng Guan’s bidding, see the auction items come and go on stage, and then the auction ended.

Fast!

Too fast!

While accompanying Meng Guan to pick up the Vein Protection Elixir, He Song felt somewhat dazed.

How is this auction…different from what he had imagined before?

Wasn’t it all about threats, provocations, and mentioning who is the son of some Foundation Establishment Clan or the disciple of some Golden Core Sect, and then ending with one party admitting defeat?

Everyone was simply bidding in a peaceful manner and giving up if the price went beyond their expectations.

So quiet.

So harmonious.

It was not like the cruel Cultivation World at all.

A thought flashed through He Song’s mind and he couldn’t help but look at Meng Guan.

Meng Guan’s guess was not wrong. This time there were as many as seven Vein Protection Elixirs available.

With a bid of two thousand spirit stones, no one competed with him, and he easily won the elixir.

Perhaps it was for this reason that the small-scale auction ended so hastily.

With this thought in mind, He Song suddenly realized it.

Maybe it was just because there were too many Vein Protection Elixirs available at this small-scale auction that there was no competition for them.

If there were fewer Vein Protection Elixirs, the situation would probably be different.

After paying the spirit stones and taking away the Vein Protection Elixir, the three of them quickly left the auction site.

As three late-stage Qi Refining cultivators traveling together, protecting just one Vein Protection Elixir wouldn’t draw other’s envy.

Even a single late-stage Qi Refining cultivator should be enough to protect one Vein Protection Elixir.

It’s just two thousand spirit stones.

A late-stage Qi Refining cultivator can save enough in a few years.

It is unwise to kill a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator just for this handful of spirit stones.

Not to mention, there are three late-stage Qi Refining cultivators.

Therefore,

The three of them quickly returned to Meng Guan’s home.

Meng Guan bowed to He Song and Wei Fan once more.

“Thank you both for your help. I will now retreat to my meditation chamber for seclusion. Please help me guard the place.”

After saying that and seeing He Song and Wei Fan nod, Meng Guan finally relaxed and stepped into the meditation chamber.

As the chamber door closed,

He Song and Wei Fan, who were standing outside, exchanged glances, and then went to a spot not too far from the chamber.

They sat down near a table.

As the fragrance of tea began to permeate, Wei Fan spoke on time.

“Fellow Daoist, this time Lao Meng’s attempt to break through the Foundation Establishment is an opportunity for both of us. If he succeeds, the benefits are obvious, but even if he fails, it can also bring invaluable breakthrough experience for both of us.”

“In the coming days, both of us need to be vigilant and guard Lao Meng.”

Meng Guan’s attempt to break through the Foundation Establishment was not widely publicized.

According to Meng Guan’s earlier conversation with the two of them, he had only informed He Song and Wei Fan about it.

Over the past decade or so, he hadn’t made any more friends in the vast Green Wall Immortal City.

Although his title as Master Duan Hun had some fame here, he had also offended many people.

To prevent some people from approaching him on purpose, Meng Guan barely had any friends he could talk to in this city, let alone close ones.

He was mostly acquainted with loose cultivators who were equally desperate or cultivators from the Immortal City Law Enforcement Team.

These people,

Naturally, they were not as trustworthy as He Song and Wei Fan.

“Don’t worry. This is within the Immortal City, and we are in the west side of the city. You should know that there are two Foundation Establishment

Masters stationed in the western part of the city. We just need to be cautious.’”,

“If someone dares to come, all we need to do is make some noise, and help will surely come. ”

With a casual wave of his hand, a red-glowing mana sword appeared beside He Song.

A mid-grade Artifact.

The Red Gold Sword!

At the same time, an earth-yellow shield began to rotate around He Song’s body.

A mid-grade Artifact.

The Thick Earth Shield!

On the side,

Seeing He Song saying that they only needed to be cautious, while already pulling out his artifacts, Wei Fan was left speechless by his friend’s caution that was apparent in everything he did.

He had forgotten that his own friend’s cautious nature was ingrained deep into his bones.

In such matters, there was no need for him to say anything, as He Song would do it on his own initiative.

After a moment of silence, two mid-grade artifacts appeared beside Wei Fan as well.

With that,

Under the control of He Song and Wei Fan, the four mid-grade artifacts guarded the surroundings vigilantly.

Time passed little by little.

In the blink of an eye, several days had passed.

He Song and Wei Fan remained alert, controlling their own artifacts and staying constantly vigilant.

Inside the meditation chamber,

Meng Guan opened his eyes at this moment.

After several days of preparation, he had adjusted himself to his peak state.

His vitality was abundant, his spirit power was full, his mind was refreshed, and his gaze was sharp.

At this moment, Meng Guan, apart from his white hair and eyebrows, had reached the pinnacle in every aspect.

Now, it was time to take the Vein Protection Elixir and start the breakthrough into the Foundation Establishment Realm. With a gentle wave of his hand,

A small jade vial appeared in Meng Guan’s hand.

He poured out an elixir from it.

Soon, a rich fragrance filled the entire chamber.

Meng Guan felt invigorated upon smelling the aroma.

this elixir was the Vein Protection Elixir that Meng Guan had acquired from the small-scale auction a few days ago.

Now that it has been taken out,

It was time to take it and then begin the breakthrough into the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Determination flashed in his eyes,

Then, he immediately activated his whole body’s spirit power and began his breakthrough attempt into the Foundation Establishment Realm. The key to the breakthrough of the Foundation Establishment Realm, Lies in the compression of spirit power within the body.

Compressing the spirit power, compress after compress, until it reaches its extreme point, forming the first wisp of mana within the body.

Once the Foundation Establishment is achieved!

The mana of the Foundation Establishment Realm is not the same thing as the spirit power of the Qi Refining Realm.

Having mana means that one is a true cultivator.

Whereas the Qi Refining Realm, even experts at the ninth-tier Qi Refining and Qi Refining great perfection, are actually still in between ordinary humans and cultivators, as they only possess spirit power.

Only when one cultivates mana do they begin the path of a true cultivator.

That’s why only those who have reached the Foundation Establishment Realm are called Master (True Person).

In the Qi Refining Realm, even if one’s strength is formidable, they can only be called Daoist.

Master is an exclusive title for those in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Without reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm, no one dares to use the title of Master..
