Chapter 147: Chapter 146: Second Foundation Establishment

Translator: 549690339

As Meng Guan was a Foundation Establishment Master, he noticed He Song the moment he arrived.

Therefore, he was able to open the door and invite him in before He Song even had the chance to knock.

Entering the courtyard.

The three of them paid their respects and then sat down.

Under the thick aroma of tea, they began to catch up.

It had been two years since they last met, but their faces remained the same. A sense of familiarity washed over He Song as they exchanged glances.

This familiarity quickly put He Song at ease, and he began to share his experiences over the past two years with the two of them.

However.

He changed the purpose of opening his spirit field to seeking opportunities instead.

In the Cultivation World.

Too many Qi-refining late stage, Qi Refining great perfection, and even Foundation Establishment cultivators grow old over time.

Before they die, they might squander their entire fortune.

Or perhaps leave it all behind for their descendants.

Or randomly find a disciple to bestow upon them everything they have.

As such.

Seeking opportunities amongst those at the Qi Refining and even Foundation Establishment stage is not a secret.

It is common for mortals to benefit from the teachings of cultivators, soaring high and becoming true cultivators themselves.

It is also common for cultivators to inherit resources from their predecessors, and reach the heavens in a single bound.

And occasionally, one might even hear about someone being taken as a disciple by a Foundation Establishment Master, who would then teach them everything they knew.

Of course, He Song wasn’t really seeking opportunities, but rather opening his spirit field.

Naturally, the experiences he recounted didn’t include finding any opportunities.

He had spent two years searching for opportunities outside.

But returned empty-handed.

Upon hearing this, Meng Guan and Wei Fan immediately tried to persuade He Song not to obsess over opportunities any longer.

As for this.

He Song secretly felt pleased but still nodded his head in agreement.

With this incident out in the open, he now had an excuse to refuse anyone who wanted to search for opportunities with him outside the sect in the future.

This was a decision He Song made on the spur of the moment and decided to go along with.

As a cultivator, seeking opportunities outside was normal.

But searching for opportunities with others outside the sect was something He Song would definitely be unwilling to do.

When searching for opportunities together, who knows if someone might stab you in the back.

For the sake of his life.

It was better to fabricate something to use as an excuse to ward off those who wanted to search for opportunities with him outside the sect. In this way, with the precedent of this incident as a reference.

His refusal would be considered reasonable.

Furthermore.

Since Meng Guan and Wei Fan were aware of this matter, anyone who casually inquired would know that his refusal had a reason behind it, and he wouldn’t need to worry about anyone holding a grudge against him for it.

After discussing this matter, the three of them chatted for a while before finally talking about the matters they wanted to address during this meeting. “Do you know where I went after taking on external affairs two years ago?”

Looking into the distance, Meng Guan asked as his eyes suddenly shone with a touch of emotion.

Without waiting for He Song’s response, Meng Guan continued speaking. “Over these past two years, I’ve returned to the Red Spirit Gold Mine.”

“However, my status has changed from being a minor leader to guarding the gold mine as a Foundation Establishment Master.”

“The person who once appointed me as a leader now respectfully addresses me as ‘elder’ when he sees me.”

into the world, I realized that the status of a Foundation Establishment Master is vastly different from a Qi Refining stage cultivator.”

Meng Guan looked at Wei Fan, wanting to say something.

But after considering it, he chose not to speak.

However, his gaze seemed to hold a hint of anticipation.

Wei Fan’s opportunity to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Only this once.

If it doesn’t work this time…

Meng Guan shook his head, casting away the negative thoughts in his heart, and then looked at He Song.

“Mr. He, after two years of planning, I still need 1,700 spirit stones to buy another Foundation Establishment Elixir. I wonder if you…”

This matter had been settled two years ago.

Now, two years later, He Song has returned.

Naturally, the spirit stones they originally agreed to lend must be handed over by He Song himself.

He Song was well-prepared for this.

With a swipe on the table in front of him.

1,700 neatly arranged spirit stones appeared on the table.

1,700 spirit stones stacked together shone brilliantly under the sunlight, emitting an enchanting glow.

With so many spirit stones appearing, all three people’s gazes were instantly attracted.

“Alright, time is of the essence. I will head to the sect treasury right away.”

Seeing He Song fulfill the promise of providing the spirit stones, Meng Guan nodded, and after collecting the spirit stones, he thanked him. Immediately, his entire body transformed into a green tunneling light, heading into the distance.

Watching Meng Guan transform into a green tunneling light, shooting into the sky, both He Song and Wei Fan showed a trace of envy in their eyes.

Foundation Establishment.

After breaking through to Foundation Establishment, one can learn tunneling skills.

At that time, they can transform into tunneling light, roaming freely between heaven and earth.

The two who were still at the Qi Refining stage were naturally envious.

This is flying.

Although they could also temporarily ride the wind using the Mountain Wind Riding Skill, it was incomparable to real tunneling skills.

Very soon.

The tunneling light Meng Guan had transformed into flew back from the distance, landing directly in Wei Fan’s courtyard.

As the light dissipated and Meng Guan’s figure appeared, a jade bottle was placed in front of Wei Fan.

Seeing this, a wave of warmth surged in Wei Fan’s heart.

Although he already knew two years ago that his two good friends would help him gather the spirit stones to exchange for his second Foundation Establishment Elixir.

However, when the second Foundation Establishment Elixir actually appeared in front of him, Wei Fan was still moved.

“Thank you both for your assistance. If I succeed in establishing my foundation this time, Wei Fan will never forget your great kindness.”

Picking up the Foundation Establishment Elixir from the table, Wei Fan bowed deeply, solemnly speaking.

Facing Wei Fan’s bow,

This time. both He Song and Menc Guan hurried forward to suDDort him.

However, unlike the previous time, this time Meng Guan was the one to reassure Wei Fan.

“Wei, there’s no need for this. What need is there for such formalities between the three of us? You just go to the quiet room, sit still, and look for the right moment to build your foundation. When the time comes, take the Foundation Establishment Elixir and begin your foundation building.”

With Meng Guan’s comforting words.

Resolution flashed in Wei Fan’s eyes as he stepped into the quiet room.

Looking at his retreating figure, He Song could even feel the determination in Wei Fan’s heart at the moment.

Not until Wei Fan eventually entered the quiet room and closed the door.

Did the courtyard grow quiet again.

Only then did He Song and Meng Guan sit back down at the tea table, each picking up a cup of tea and sighing in relief.

In order not to affect Wei Fan’s state of mind during his foundation establishment breakthrough, the two had been very cautious. Only at this point were they finally able to relax a bit.

“What do you think? Will Wei be able to succeed in his Foundation Establishment breakthrough this time?”

After draining his tea, Meng Guan looked at He Song, wanting to know his opinion.

“I still remember when you entered the quiet room to break through the

Foundation Establishment, Wei asked me the same question.”

Listening to Meng Guan’s inquiry, He Song chuckled, saying something irrelevant.

He seemed to have not heard Meng Guan’s question at all and showed no intention of responding.

But beside him, Meng Guan heard this and his face revealed a trace of emotion.

Then he shook his head and sighed.

“Never mind, I won’t ask. This indeed is not the time to discuss this..”
