Chapter 1337 -460: Could this woman have some hidden attribute?_3 … Inside the secret chamber of the cave mansion. “Caizhen, I’m sorry, I’ve been useless and wasted your Foundation Establishment Elixir.” Hong Xuanji’s face was pale, and in an instant, he seemed to have aged considerably, showing expressions of shame and disappointment. He originally thought he had no fate with Foundation Establishment in this life. But then his wife brought out a Foundation Establishment Elixir, giving him hope for Foundation Establishment. After knowing, his father Hong Yi also resolutely offered all the family’s savings to purchase Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects for him. Yet in the end, it was all for naught. “Husband, do not blame yourself. With your aptitude, at this age, even having a Foundation Establishment Elixir, failure is normal.” Lu Caizhen, looking at her husband’s much older appearance, felt a bit heartbroken. She herself did not have a strong desire for Foundation Establishment, maintaining a normal state of mind. But she was well aware that her husband was very eager for Foundation Establishment. It was precisely for this reason that she took out the Foundation Establishment Elixir left by her brother back then to seek a chance for Foundation Establishment for Hong Xuanji from her father. But ultimately, it still failed. “Alas.” Hong Xuanji sighed deeply, clenching his fists, unable to stop blaming himself. “Husband, take care to rest well. Whether you achieve Foundation Establishment or not is not important. Restoring your health is crucial now.” Lu Caizhen spoke to comfort him, taking out a porcelain bottle for Hong Xuanji. Although consuming the Foundation Establishment Elixir and failing does not cause backlash or life-threatening danger, it can, depending on the situation, cause certain harm and a deficit of qi and blood. “Thank you, Caizhen.” Hong Xuanji received the elixir with a heavy expression and consumed it. Meanwhile. In the Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven. “Boom boom boom——” The spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged wildly. From all sides of the Cave Heaven, the grayish chaotic air seemed to be cleared and constantly evolved. “Is this the Third Rank Spirit Vein?” Lu Miaoyun looked at the situation ahead with some surprise. She knew that the spirit vein of Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven was advancing to the Third Rank, but she did not know what a Third Rank Spirit Vein would look like or how rich the spiritual energy would be. “Hmm.” Ling Zixiao nodded slightly, saying, “However, compared to the spirit vein’s advancement, the progress of Senior Mount Sumeru seems even greater.” She was somewhat familiar with the situation of the Mount Sumeru Tree King. She knew that under normal circumstances, such demon plants grow very slowly and may take millennia to improve slightly. However, the Mount Sumeru Tree King can nourish itself with its inner world, accelerating growth. The original Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven was chaos, with only a simple outline. Now nurturing a Third Rank Spirit Vein has brought the entity a significant boost. “Is this a True Spirit… Such growth is indeed terrifying.” In the Peachwood Spirit Womb, Hong Lian was also awakened by the commotion of the Mount Sumeru Tree King, amazed at its growth speed. With just a Third Rank Spirit Vein, it achieved such enhancements. If there were a Fourth Rank Spirit Vein, wouldn’t it directly grow from the third to the fourth rank? “Boom boom boom——” Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven continued to evolve, expanding the size of the Cave Heaven. “Miaoge, Miaoyun, watch this closely.” Ling Zixiao watched for a moment, then stepped out of the Cave Heaven to manage the family’s Great Formation, in case the situation with the Mount Sumeru Tree King caused too much commotion. “Clatter——” The tree king, with its body like gold and jade, gently swayed, as if there was a Buddhist chant resonating, causing auspicious energy to surge at the top of Bi Yun Peak while divine light flowed. Although the Mount Sumeru Tree King could suppress the disturbance itself, Ling Zixiao still brought the Inverted Five Elements Great Formation on the mountain top to full operation, causing an invisible mist to slowly flow and surge. … Outside the mountain gate of Qingyun Sect. A streak of sword light seemed to descend from the heavens, revealing a peerlessly beautiful woman with a straight nose, eyes sharp as a sword, with a cool demeanor carrying a few hints of heroism. “Greetings to Qingyi True Master!” “Greetings to Qingyi True Master!” The disciples of the Qingyun Sect guarding the mountain gate, upon seeing this woman, showed expressions of surprise, delight, and reverence. Even though they were only in Qi Refinement or Foundation Establishment, they had heard of Chu Qingyi’s disappearance in the Tianyuan Secret Realm. Now seeing their True Master return safely, they were naturally overjoyed. “Hmm.” Chu Qingyi took out a token and walked into the Sect, gazing at Caiyun Peak in the distance, subconsciously touching the ring on her ring finger. Upon her return, her master would surely inquire about what she encountered in the Tianyuan Secret Realm. Even now, she didn’t know how to narrate her experiences. She took a deep breath and, instead of flying directly to Caiyun Peak, walked toward it step by step. Along the way, disciples of the Qingyun Sect who saw her displayed expressions of awe, respect, admiration, and reverence, bowing as they passed. Chu Qingyi looked at these people and recalled the words of Lu Changsheng. “Many Loose Cultivators forsake their families, abandon lovers, leave friends behind, and wander the world in search of immortality, only to end up impoverished, lonely, and buried in the wilderness with no accomplishment in the Dao.” 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦 It’s not just the Loose Cultivators. Even those who join Qingyun Sect and become disciples of the Immortal Sect often miss the chance of Foundation Establishment. Even if some achieve Foundation Establishment, how many reach Core Formation? As for Nascent Soul… The vast Qingyun Sect does not currently have a Nascent Soul True Lord seated. “The Great Dao is vast; having a few confidants to support each other through the vast years is indeed a fortunate thing.” Upon seeing people who resembled couples, Chu Qingyi’s mind replayed this sentence. Evidently, Lu Changsheng’s words and actions had an effect. Her originally pure and flawless Sword Heart had been stained with an indelible speck of dust. “Alas.” Chu Qingyi sighed softly and finally transformed into a beam of sword light, suddenly arriving at the top of Caiyun Peak.
