Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 313: Chapter 146: The Idea of Establishing One’s Own Family_1
Xiao Xiyue, unclothed and composed, sat cross-legged with a dignified and cool expression on her face.

She hadn’t expected that, at the critical moment of Foundation Establishment, she would encounter a shortage of external Spiritual Energy.

But once Foundation Establishment reached this step, it was impossible to stop, nor could she afford to.

With a graceful motion of her hand,

a heap of Spirit Stones ‘clattered’ out from the Storage Bag, absorbing the Spiritual Energy within the stones.

Lu Changsheng could tell that most of these Spirit Stones were Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

Only a few were Middle Grade Spirit Stones.

This was normal, after all, Xiao Xiyue, no matter how wealthy, was merely an Energy Refining Cultivator.

Without hesitation, Lu Changsheng took out the hundreds of Middle Grade Spirit Stones he had obtained from the red-robed youth.

With a strong squeeze, he crushed each Middle Grade Spirit Stone into powder, causing the Spiritual Energy to disperse.

Then, another porcelain bottle appeared.

“Xi Yue, Foundation Establishment Elixir.”

Lu Changsheng poured the inferior Foundation Establishment Elixir from the bottle.

He could see that Xiao Xiyue had not taken any Foundation Establishment Elixirs.

Although he did not know why she hadn’t prepared any Foundation Establishment Elixirs,

given the current situation, he felt it was necessary to take one for safety’s sake—even if it was an inferior one.

Despite being inferior, at least it was better than nothing.

Moreover, the inferior Foundation Establishment Elixir was only less effective in harmonizing the three aspects and transforming the absorbed Spiritual Energy.

It could only increase the chances of successful Foundation Establishment by ten percent.

As for protecting the meridians and Dantian, its efficacy was the same as a regular Foundation Establishment Elixir.

It could ensure that a Foundation Establishment failure would not result in a backlash.

“Foundation Establishment Elixir?”

Xiao Xiyue’s beautiful eyes widened slightly, surprised to see the Foundation Establishment Elixir in Lu Changsheng’s hand.

She had seen Lu Changsheng take one himself.

She hadn’t expected that Lu Changsheng would still have another.

After all, even within Qingyun Sect’s Inner Sect, obtaining a Foundation Establishment Elixir was not easy.

Seeing the concerned look on Lu Changsheng’s face, Xiao Xiyue’s calm heart rippled slightly.

“No need,” she said softly.

Her cultivation of the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique was crucial for her Foundation, depending on her state of mind.

As long as her state of mind reached perfection, she was certain to succeed in Foundation Establishment without relying on external objects.

That was why, despite her status, she could have applied for a Foundation Establishment Elixir but chose not to.

Furthermore, it was just an external deficiency of nature’s Spiritual Energy.

It was not a complete absence of Spiritual Energy, which did not mean her Foundation Establishment was doomed to fail.

Therefore, under these circumstances, she did not want to waste Lu Changsheng’s Foundation Establishment Elixir and owe him a favor.

“Concentrate on your Foundation Establishment.”

Despite Xiao Xiyue’s resistance, Lu Changsheng insisted, slapping his hand down.

He pushed the Foundation Establishment Elixir directly into Xiao Xiyue’s mouth.

While the Elixir was precious, in his view, things were made to be used.

Given Xiao Xiyue’s precarious situation, if the Elixir could stabilize matters, he certainly wouldn’t hold back.

Otherwise, if Xiao Xiyue failed her Foundation Establishment, he would feel uneasy about it.

“Boom!”

As the Foundation Establishment Elixir entered her stomach, Xiao Xiyue immediately felt the power of the medicine increasing the Spiritual Pressure around her,

accelerating the conversion and absorption of the surrounding Spiritual Energy.

As she watched Lu Changsheng crush the Middle Grade Spirit Stones one by one, she pressed her lips together, sighed softly in her heart, and closed her eyes to concentrate on Foundation Establishment.

“Thinking of breaking ties with me that easily? Not so simple.”

“Thinking you could leave before birthing three children.”

Lu Changsheng clearly understood Xiao Xiyue’s thoughts.

Her affection for him was probably genuine,

as was her desire to repay him for his assistance in cultivation and saving her life, thereby untangling their relationship.

In such a case, how could Lu Changsheng simply let go?

…

“Who in the world is undergoing Foundation Establishment? The amount of Spiritual Energy they’re drawing in is terrifying!”

“Looking at this, Foundation Establishment should have ended by now, so why is it still continuing?”

“This is going to affect the Spiritual Energy in our area!”

“Could it be that this person is condensing the legendary Perfect Foundation Base?”

“Even with a Perfect Foundation Base, the amount of Spiritual Energy involved wouldn’t be this massive, nor continue for so long, right?”

The cultivators near Core Peak, looking at the vortex of Spiritual Energy swirling above, were bewildered with amazement and confusion.

“What’s happening? The vortex of Spiritual Energy above Xi Yue Junior Sister’s cave abode is still swirling, and the Spiritual Pressure is starting to rise again.”

“That vortex of Spiritual Energy weakened just a moment ago, with a faint rosy glow spreading through it – evidence that someone had succeeded in Foundation Establishment.”

“If that’s the case, why is the Spiritual Pressure rising again as if someone is forming their Dao Foundation anew?”

“Could it be… two people are attempting Foundation Establishment simultaneously?”

Inside Cave Abode Yi, a young man looked toward the not-too-distant Cave Abode Jia, where a vortex of Spiritual Energy swirled above the sky, and frowned slightly.

“Report to Master Du, this number nine Jia Cave Abode is rented by Fairy Xi Yue of Caiyun Peak,”

the steward at the cave abode rental place said to the grey-robed elder in front of him, with a face showing signs of age and a hint of the demeanor of an immortal, speaking respectfully.

“Caiyun Peak, Xiao Xiyue?”

This elder was the False Core Immortal stationed at Qingyun Market.

Seeing this unusual activity of Spiritual Energy, he also came to inquire who was undergoing Foundation Establishment.

After all, the commotion of this Foundation Establishment was indeed a bit too large.

Were it not for Qingyun Market having a large Spirit Vein,

and that Core Peak’s Spirit Vein reached Second Rank top-grade, such intense activity of Spiritual Energy could affect the operation of the Marketplace’s Great Formation.

“Yes, Immortal.”

“At that time, Fairy Xi Yue was renting the cave abode along with a close friend and indicated it would be used for a Realm breakthrough,”

stated the steward respectfully, without concealing anything.

Although his Cultivation Level was only Qi Refinement, having served as a steward in Qingyun Market for many years, he had seen many people attempt Foundation Establishment.

He had a rough guess about the situation based on the abnormality of the Spiritual Energy and knowing that Xiao Xiyue had rented the cave abode with another person.
