Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

If Lu Ye breaks through again this time, he will reach the seventh level of Qi Refining and enter the late stage of Qi Refining.

Qian Zhengyi should also be able to break through to the sixth level of Qi Refining.

Their breakthroughs are also a good thing for Tian Shu!

As for whether Second Uncle can break through to the seventh level of Qi Refining, that depends on his luck.

It seems that the Qi and Blood Golden Elixir cannot directly help him break through.

However, with improved physical health, cultivation speed increases, which is equivalent to indirectly increasing strength.

During the midday break, Ye Chen found Ah Long alone and gave him a Jiazi Golden Pill.

He's the only one who meets the criteria to get one of these.

Old Li and Second Uncle can only be patient for now. When they reach Foundation Establishment, Ye Chen will naturally reward them handsomely.

Ye Chen told A Long to take the Jiazi Golden Pill first, and that he could take the Qi and Blood Golden Pill after he broke through.

Under Ye Chen's protection, Ah Long directly adjusted his condition and took the Jiazi Golden Pill.

It took about two hours for Ah Long's breathing to gradually stabilize, and his cultivation level soared from the first level of Foundation Establishment to the fifth level.

That's right, it's the fifth level of Foundation Establishment.

He jumped directly from the early stage of Foundation Establishment to the middle stage.

Ah Long was still in a daze, unable to believe what had happened for a long time.

So this is another breakthrough?

Looking back on his journey, his cultivation seemed to have been accelerated by a cheat code.

From Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, from the early stage of Foundation Establishment to the middle stage...

Who the hell would dare to think of that? I wouldn't even dare to dream of it!

He completed in less than a month what others might take a lifetime, or even a lifetime, to accomplish.

Since following Brother Ye, I have freedom of time and financial freedom, and my happiness index is off the charts.

Now he has even reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, a height that most cultivators can only look up to.

This is what happens when you follow the right person and avoid a lifetime of detours!

That's how the gears of fate work; sometimes, choice is more important than effort.

Not only was Ah Long a little confused, but Ye Chen was also somewhat surprised.

That's amazing! It's a direct leap of four levels!

But upon closer reflection, it seems to make sense.

Even someone at the Golden Core stage could advance a minor realm, so advancing four minor realms at the Foundation Establishment stage wasn't that much.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of the medicine's effectiveness.

If Xiao Qi were to advance four realms, wouldn't it be close to condensing a Golden Core himself?

Wow, Ye Chen felt like he could personally bring out one or two more Golden Core experts!

Because of his bloodline, Xiao Qi had no bottlenecks in his cultivation below the Golden Core stage.

Breaking through to the Golden Core stage is only a matter of time.

He had even considered whether to bring Xiao Qi into Tian Shu as well.

After all, if he can cultivate in the spiritual veins, the time it takes for Xiao Qi to reach the Golden Core stage will be shortened indefinitely.

Now that we have the Jiazi Golden Elixir, it seems we can take it easy!

After taking the Jiazi Golden Elixir, one can enter the late stage of Foundation Establishment. After a few more dual cultivation sessions, it should be close enough.

Unless absolutely necessary, Ye Chen still doesn't want everyone to join Beidou.

At least Xiao Qi and Weiwei Ye Chen didn't want them to get involved.

It's not that the benefits are bad; in fact, they're unbeatable—they're the dream of countless independent cultivators!

Receiving benefits means taking on corresponding responsibilities and obligations, and being subject to constraints.

Ye Chen had his own plans. The overall situation was not clear at the moment, so it was definitely good to keep some forces hidden.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

With him attracting attention, the others can just focus on developing their skills in peace.

Ye Chen didn't even report Ah Long's strength; only people in their small circle knew about it.

Ye Chen's intuition told him that he had to keep a secret; there were too many cunning old foxes around.

He himself was the opposite; he was strong enough, had the means to protect himself, and had come to the attention of the top leader.

The more valuable or high-profile he appears, the more stable he becomes!

Intrigue is useless against him, and he is not afraid of open schemes either.

Beidou needs someone who can stand on solid ground, which means he's destined to be someone who can't keep a low profile...

Ye Chen told A Long to consolidate his cultivation level, and then sent a message to Weiwei and Xiao Qi to come home that evening.

Ye Chen returned to 1301 first and casually tossed a Jiazi Golden Pill to Da Huang.

Big Yellow was so excited it almost started licking, but Ye Chen interrupted it with a look of disgust.

Dahuang had no choice but to swallow the pill reluctantly.

As expected, Da Huang's strength also broke through, and he became a level 5 Foundation Establishment dog.

The breakthrough was accompanied by faint sounds of wind and thunder, and his whole body was crackling with purple lightning. It was unclear whether this was due to the nameless horn he had used during his Foundation Establishment.

What's funny is that Big Yellow has now grown a tuft of purple hair on its forehead, like a third eye.

He looks a bit unconventional, somewhat resembling Dog Bro.

Its body is filled with lightning-attribute energy, and the Xuan Lei Jue (Mysterious Thunder Technique) seems to have been tailor-made for Da Huang, which it has mastered to perfection.

So, don't be fooled by the dog-like appearance of the big yellow dog. He's just a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and his actual combat strength should be no less than that of Ah Long and Xiao Qi.

After all, Da Huang is now focused entirely on cultivation, spending all his time cultivating except at home.

The key to skill lies in refinement.

No one is afraid of a dog that doesn't bite, but what about a dog that kicks and a dog that shocks people?

If this dog went back to the village, it would dominate the dog world in no time...

Seeing Da Huang's rapid progress, Xiao Liu was quite envious. Ye Chen told it to cultivate diligently, so that it would receive the same treatment once it reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Liu's motivation to cultivate increased even more!

That evening, both Xiao Qi and Weiwei came.

Upon meeting, the two of them blushed, perhaps thinking about something or what would happen next!

Seeing their reactions, Ye Chen was secretly delighted. Cough cough, there's an opportunity!

However, Ye Chen still gave the two of them the Jiazi Golden Pill first, to improve their strength first!

In this way, Xiao Qi directly became a master of the eighth level of Foundation Establishment, while Weiwei also jumped to the fifth level of Foundation Establishment.

Both of them were incredibly excited, as if they had unlocked a cheat code!

In the middle of the night, Ye Chen shamelessly and naturally began the cultivation he had only dared to dream of before!

Since we're already here, and we're all eating from the same pot, let's not waste our resources on outsiders and not make a fuss over nothing.

No one wants this to happen at first, but once the psychological defenses are broken, it just happens naturally...

The next morning, Ye Chen leisurely brewed tea in the courtyard.

The old security guard, Xia Wudi, called him.

Ye Chen answered without hesitation: "Hey, Invincible Bro, you're at work so early!"

"Hehe, we're all just ordinary folks, going to work is the norm for us!" Xia Wudi chuckled and cut to the chase, continuing, "Hey, Brother Ye Chen, a few of us old guys are having a get-together tomorrow and we'd like to invite you. Do you have time?"

"Oh~, a party? What kind of party? Will I, a young person, be out of place with you guys?" Ye Chen asked in confusion.
