Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

When Ye Chen returned to Longjin Residential Area, Da Huang's aura was noticeably stronger than before.

It looks like he's already at the eighth level of Qi Refining. Judging by this momentum, reaching the ninth level is only a matter of time.

It seems we can give Big Yellow a chance to try out the underground foundation building today!

In the backyard, the aura of the six-clawed, seven-colored rooster, Xiao Liu, was also steadily increasing, and it should have at least reached the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining.

Reaching level six in Qi Refining shouldn't be a problem.

This is the effect of the inner elixir on animals!

That's something animals cultivate for a long time to develop, so how powerful can it be!

Swallowing the inner elixir is like taking a shortcut and reaping the fruits of someone else's hard work.

Although this behavior is not recommended, it's really exhilarating!

Cultivation is like having a cheat code; it saves me from taking many detours.

Since Da Huang and the others hadn't finished absorbing the spoils, Ye Chen went back to his room to sort through the loot.

Things need to be categorized properly, otherwise it's really unpleasant to look at a mess...

That evening, Da Huang barked twice, somewhat excited.

Ye Chen opened his eyes from his body-refining cultivation and scanned the big yellow dog with his divine sense.

"What's wrong? Why are you so excited?" Ye Chen said calmly via telepathy.

"Master, I have reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining and can establish my foundation at any time, but I have no clue what to do next. What should I do next?"

Big Yellow responded excitedly.

Ye Chen was not surprised by the fact that Da Huang had reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.

It's just standard procedure!

He's consumed so many inner cores, and he cultivates in the Spirit Gathering Array every day. If he doesn't reach the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, it would truly be an injustice.

[Ding— Detected that your disciple has reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, triggering a hidden reward: one Foundation Establishment Pill. Would you like to claim it?]

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow. Oh wow, Da Huang has also been identified as his apprentice by the system.

After all, they all practice the Xuan Tian Breathing Technique!

However, none of that matters anymore; I just got another Foundation Establishment Pill for free.

Ye Chen calmly transmitted his voice to Da Huang, saying, "It's just the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, what's the big deal? Calm down, okay? This is just standard procedure!"

"I haven't experienced your species' Foundation Establishment process either, but since you can cultivate human techniques, let's follow the human Foundation Establishment method. I have several Foundation Establishment methods here; choose one to try!"

Next, Ye Chen explained some methods of Foundation Establishment to Da Huang.

Big Yellow was completely stunned.

As Ye Chen expected, Da Huang skipped over the so-called Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment and Earthly Dao Foundation Establishment without even thinking about it.

It has a clear understanding of its own position; it knows that even if that thing existed, it wouldn't fall on it, nor could it fall on it, otherwise it would feel uneasy.

"Master, what preparations are needed for the Human Foundation Establishment? Can I try it now?" Da Huang asked.

"You're so honest, why don't you ask if I have any treasures for Foundation Establishment?" Ye Chen said irritably.

"Master, I only need to reach the Foundation Establishment stage. Everyone says it would be a waste to give me such a treasure; leave it for someone else. I'll just focus on reaching the Foundation Establishment stage in the Human Realm!"

Dahuang spoke up as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Ye Chen threw the horn containing lightning attributes downstairs, and it landed right in front of Big Yellow.

Big Yellow was startled, thinking that Ye Chen had thrown down some strange jade that could explode again, and almost grabbed the little black dog and dodged.

In the previous experiments, Dahuang was so frightened that it developed a conditioned reflex.

When Big Yellow realized it was a horn, it breathed a slight sigh of relief. However, its body trembled instinctively, as if it wanted to get away from the horn. What was going on?

This feeling is an instinctive sense of fear!

What is the origin of this horn?

The little black dog was even more direct; it was so frightened by the aura emanating from that corner that it wet itself and paced back and forth anxiously.

Their reactions naturally caught Ye Chen's attention, and Ye Chen was quite curious as to why their reactions were so intense.

You should know that Da Huang is no longer afraid of even the scent of a tiger.

As a result, I now feel an instinctive fear of a corner.

Can this horn be more intimidating than a tiger?

"Master, what is this?" Da Huang asked nervously and suspiciously.

Ye Chen actually wanted to say that he didn't know anything either, but if he did that, wouldn't his image as a master collapse, turning him into an unreliable master...?

Ye Chen coughed lightly, changing the subject, and said casually, "Ahem, try doing as I say and see if you can use it to establish your foundation through the Earthly Path. If that doesn't work, then switch to the Human Path!"

Ye Chen tossed a calming pill to Da Huang: "Eat this, then start your breakthrough!"

"Ah? Foundation Building in the Underground Tunnel!" Big Yellow exclaimed excitedly upon hearing this. "Master, isn't this a waste for me?!"

Ye Chen replied irritably via telepathy, "Stop nagging! It fell on the ground, I don't want it anymore, hurry up and try it out!"

Big Yellow looked very grateful: "Thank you, Master!"

Dahuang had no doubt about Ye Chen's words. If its master said it could establish a true foundation, then it definitely could. If it couldn't, then it was its own problem.

Then it didn't linger any longer and slowly approached Thunderhorn.

Finally, mustering immense courage, he trembled as he picked up the horn and began his attempt at Foundation Building!

A few minutes later, Da Huang stopped trembling, as if he had overcome his fear and officially entered the Foundation Establishment state.

Actually, Ye Chen was quite nervous, wondering if that thing could be used for the Foundation Establishment stage, and he was prepared to stuff a Foundation Establishment Pill into Da Huang's chest at any time.

There are hardly any certainties on the path of cultivation; it often involves an element of gambling.

Therefore, it requires mentorship and guidance, as well as discussions, exchanges, and mutual verification.

A moment later, the corner reacted and began to emit a faint light.

I don't know how much time passed; it was a long refining process!

Finally, the horn seemed to melt into a ball of lightning, which then disappeared directly into Big Yellow's body.

Big Yellow's body trembled as if it had been electrocuted, and its fur stood on end.

Ye Chen's eyes lit up as he watched Da Huang's condition closely.

He was initially a little unsure, but seeing this scene made him breathe a sigh of relief.

This saves us another Foundation Establishment Pill!

This is not as simple as saving a Foundation Establishment Pill. Being able to establish a true foundation is definitely better than establishing a human foundation!

Their strength will be at least significantly greater.

He suggested that this strange horn could be used for building a foundation for a tunnel!

Hehe, everything is under his control! He made the right bet!

The things that a Foundation Establishment Elder from a humble background would treasure and leave behind are indeed extraordinary!

As for Da Huang, his condition should be fine now, as he is not very weak.

It was just a shock, it's been training its body for so long, it should be able to withstand it.

If it can't hold on, Ye Chen can just give it a few more pills. It's not a big problem, not a big problem!

Just as Ye Chen had guessed, Da Huang pulled through and successfully entered the breakthrough stage!

Rhubarb's aura was also slowly rising, breaking through and getting on the right track.

At this moment, Xiao An sent a message to Ye Chen.

"Brother Ye, I've printed and bound all six books, and I've put them all here in the small lounge!"
