Refining Ruins Cauldron

The effects of the Rejuvenation Pill were still raging within his body.

However, after successfully establishing the foundation, both the physical body and meridians are more resilient than before, making it easier to control the medicinal effects.

Gu Qingyun did not waste any of it. He circulated his cultivation technique to absorb all the medicinal power, and then poured it drop by drop into the spiritual energy vortex in his dantian.

The powerful medicinal effects were completely tamed, no longer as violent as before.

Not only that, even his sea of ​​consciousness has expanded several times over compared to before.

Gu Qingyun's spiritual sense detection range has at least doubled!

Within a radius of a hundred feet, nothing could escape his perception; every single detail would be clearly imprinted in his mind.

"Phew~"

Exhaling a breath of stale air, Gu Qingyun opened his eyes, and two beams of light shot out simultaneously, as if they could pierce through everything.

He slowly rose, feeling the powerful and exciting body within him, a sense of ease and joy washing over him.

With a casual flick of his finger, the power far surpasses that of a Qi Refining Realm cultivator!

Gu Qingyun finally understood why, in the eyes of Foundation Establishment Realm experts, Qi Refining cultivators were no different from ants.

The difference in power is so great that it is simply unimaginable.

"I've succeeded..."

Looking at his own hands, Gu Qingyun muttered to himself, his eyes glazed over.

In just a few months, he went from a novice disciple who could be easily crushed by others to a Foundation Establishment expert admired by countless people.

This leap even made Gu Qingyun feel somewhat unreal, as if he were dreaming.

crunch.

The door was slowly opened, and a ray of sunlight shone on Gu Qingyun's face.

His Foundation Establishment aura had gradually subsided, and now, standing there, he looked no different from an ordinary person.

However, that aura of a Foundation Establishment expert was etched into his very bones.

Ordinary people would be stunned and feel a sudden increase in pressure just by taking a look.

Suddenly, several streaks of light flashed across the sky, approaching from afar.

At the same time, it landed right in front of Gu Qingyun, with astonishing speed.

A breakthrough in Foundation Establishment draws upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the resulting phenomenon is quite obvious; with a little attention, it cannot be concealed.

"You...successfully?"

Elder Huo Qian was the first to step forward. As a fellow alchemist, his perception was much stronger than that of ordinary cultivators.

He looked Gu Qingyun up and down as if he had seen some novel species.

Gu Qingyun smiled calmly, clasped his hands in a respectful bow, and said, "Reporting to the elder, I had a sudden insight while refining pills and felt that I should not miss this opportunity, so I took the opportunity to establish my foundation."

"And while we're at it, let's build our foundation?"

Elder Huo Qian was surprised. He understood each word individually, but when put together, they were completely incomprehensible.

Not only him, but the elders who followed behind him also had complicated expressions, their expressions were quite interesting.

This isn't modesty; this kid is clearly here to cause trouble!

All the geniuses and prodigies in the sect pale in comparison to Gu Qingyun at this moment!

What does it mean to encounter a golden opportunity while refining elixirs?

What does it mean to build a foundation while doing it?

What kind of talent does it take to be able to do something so effortlessly?

Elder Huo Qian has lived for nearly a hundred years and has seen many geniuses, but Gu Qingyun is unique!

In this world, who can build a foundation without secluded cultivation and waiting for the right opportunity?

But Gu Qingyun made it sound as simple as eating and drinking.

He was refining pills, and before he knew it, he had reached the Foundation Establishment stage!

Are you kidding me?!

As if he had seen through Elder Huo Qian's thoughts, Gu Qingyun smiled and scratched his head.

"This disciple is not lying. When I was refining the last batch of Rejuvenation Pills, the shackles in my body just happened to loosen, so I took advantage of the situation and used the Spirit Essence Pill to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage. I never expected it to actually succeed..."

Upon hearing this, Elder Huo Qian's expression became even more interesting.

What does it mean to downplay something?

Is there anything more understated or relaxed than this?

This kid makes it sound so easy. If you weren't an experienced person, you'd really think that Foundation Establishment is as simple as eating and drinking!

Following closely behind was Nalan Feixue.

She arrived gracefully, dressed in a light purple dress, as if a fairy had descended to earth, serene and elegant.

Nalan Feixue's clear, cold eyes landed precisely on Gu Qingyun, scrutinizing him from head to toe, as if she could see right through him.

This time, for the first time, her eyes showed a hint of emotion, and she nodded in satisfaction.

"very good."

These two simple words are already a very high evaluation from Nalan Feixue.

Although he remained aloof and calm, Gu Qingyun could still hear the appreciation in his tone.

Elder Huo Qian was extremely familiar with his own peak master, so he naturally knew how high this evaluation was.

These two seemingly simple words would not have earned the same treatment from other prodigies in the sect.

Even Mingji!

"Peak Master has discerning eyes; your vision is indeed beyond our reach."

If it weren't for Nalan Feixue's strong recommendation for Gu Qingyun to join the Pill Hall, Elder Huo Qian might never have given him a second glance in his entire life.

Such geniuses must be buried in the vast ocean.

Gu Qingyun knew this better than anyone else.

He respectfully cupped his hands to Nalan Feixue and bowed deeply.

Nalan Feixue naturally accepted this courtesy.

"This disciple thanks Peak Master."

"I will never forget the kindness of the Peak Master and the promise I made back then."

In a simple sentence, it expresses both gratitude and determination.

After saying that, Gu Qingyun took out a low-grade Rejuvenation Pill.

This is a Rejuvenation Pill that he deliberately left behind, one that hasn't been processed by the Refining Cauldron.

The aura of spiritual fire above was so strong that Nalan Feixue recognized it at a glance.

This moment moved Nalan Feixue even more than before.

The curve of her lips even improved!

"Good! Very good! Excellent!"

Three consecutive sounds were enough to show their satisfaction with Gu Qingyun.

"Prepare well for the Taiyi Secret Realm. After you return, I will grant you another opportunity."

Standing to the side, Elder Huo Qian only realized what Gu Qingyun had just said when he saw the low-grade Rejuvenation Pill!

This kid actually managed to refine a Grade Two Rejuvenation Pill using only three ingredients?!

Demon!

This kid is a prodigy!

Having lived for over a hundred years, he considered himself to have a good talent for alchemy, and could be considered one of the best among alchemists!

But compared to Gu Qingyun right now, the difference is so great that Elder Huo Qian is ashamed!

A short while later, Luo Mei arrived late.

When she saw Gu Qingyun, her big, bright eyes visibly lit up, brighter than the stars in the night sky.

"Gu Qingyun!"

Before he finished speaking, the person arrived first.

A beautiful figure rushed towards her, a fragrant breeze wafting towards her, but she stopped just before she got close.

With her master and Elder Huo Qian present, Luo Mei dared not be too presumptuous.

She circled around Gu Qingyun again and again, her face beaming with satisfaction and a radiant smile.

She stretched out her delicate hand and patted Gu Qingyun's shoulder firmly!

"Excellent, excellent! My junior brother is indeed extraordinary!"

"Come on, come on, tell me what happened!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Mei grabbed Gu Qingyun's sleeve as if they were old friends and pulled him into the house.

Nalan Feixue and Elder Huo Qian were completely ignored by her.

"You... Xiaomei, could you please wait until I've finished asking my question?"

Elder Huo Qian could hardly contain his curiosity; his questions were overflowing and urgently needed to be addressed.

"What are you asking? The facts are right in front of you. No matter how many questions you ask, it won't make a difference. My junior brother is exceptionally talented, it's that simple!"

"this……"
