Daily random keywords, I survive until immortality.

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

Qingyun County, Qingxuan Sect, Dan Hall.

Yu Huai put away the [Water Boat], glanced up at the main hall, and stepped inside.

"Brother Yu Huai is back? Did the trip go smoothly? I wonder how many demonic beasts you encountered?"

In the main hall, Cheng Bei was distributing tasks to the other disciples. When he saw Yu Huai arrive, he greeted him with a smile.

"Things went fairly smoothly! I'm here today to settle my mission."

Yu Huai cupped his hands in greeting.

After distributing the tasks, Cheng Bei looked at Yu Huai with interest and said:

Oh?

"In that case, bring out those monsters! I'll settle your contribution points for you."

Yu Huai nodded, found a secluded spot, patted his storage bag, and released the dozen or so demonic beasts he had killed, including several high-grade first-tier demonic beasts.

In an instant, the entire hall was filled with the stench of blood.

This drew the attention and shock of the other disciples in the main hall. Most of those who could enter the Pill Hall were cultivators with exceptional talent in alchemy, while their combat prowess was only average.

How could they not be astonished that a disciple of the Pill Hall had killed so many demonic beasts, including high-grade first-tier ones?

If Yu Huai were to take out that top-grade Black Jade Night Toad, the sensation it would cause would be even greater.

Seeing this, Cheng Bei was also slightly shocked. He did not expect that Yu Huai could even kill a first-grade high-level demon beast.

"Brother Yu Huai, you truly are a man of great talent!"

Cheng Bei stepped forward, looked at the monsters with amazement, and turned to Yu Huai with a smile.

"It's all just borrowing the power of talismans."

Yu Huai shook his head and gave a dry laugh.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Bei paused for a moment, nodded, and showed an expression of understanding, but still spoke up:

"However, Brother Yu Huai has only just entered the late stage of Qi Refining, yet he has already killed so many first-tier high-grade demonic beasts. Even with the support of talismans, he is still incredibly brave."

Ha ha.

"Brother Cheng Bei, you flatter me. I just wonder how many contribution points these demonic beasts can be converted into?"

Yu Huai said with a smile.

Not long after.

Yu Huai returned the demon-slaying mission token to Cheng Bei, then collected the demon beasts himself. With the other disciples watching him go, he left the Pill Hall Hall with satisfaction and rode the [Water Boat] towards his own medicine garden.

This person is quite wealthy.

I'll mention it to Senior Brother Qin later. If we can bring him into our faction, it will definitely speed up Senior Brother Qin's Foundation Establishment process.

Cheng Bei watched Yu Huai leave, lost in thought.

Not long after.

Yu Huai returned to the herb garden, released Xiao Qing, fed it some food, and then went to check on the growth of the Qi-gathering grass in the garden. After finding that there was no problem, he returned to the house, sat cross-legged, and began to take stock of what he had gained on this trip.

He gained a lot from this trip.

In the ruins, he obtained two cultivation techniques, an alchemy inheritance, an autobiography, several high-grade spirit stones, pills and talismans, and the flesh and blood of a first-grade black jade night toad.

The two techniques are the subsequent stages of the "Great Chun Body Forging Technique" from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, and the "Ten Thousand Beasts Returning to the Heart Technique".

The other alchemy manual is unnamed, but it contains a recipe and refining instructions for a pill called the Divine Connection Pill. This pill is a top-grade first-tier ancient elixir that can enhance a cultivator's spiritual sense.

However, he hasn't even started refining a first-grade high-quality pill yet, let alone this top-grade pill.

However, this pill is clearly beneficial for cultivating the "Ten Thousand Beasts Return to the Heart Technique," so he still needs to improve his alchemy skills as soon as possible.

Besides, he could make a fortune by selling the dozens of demonic beasts he killed at the market.

The contribution points for the demon-slaying mission are calculated based on the number of demons killed, so he received quite a few contribution points.

As for the things obtained from that place, there weren't many left, and their value wasn't even as high as the storage bag.

Ok.

We've almost used up all our talismans this time, so we'll need to replenish them and buy some more Tier 2 talismans as backup plans.

Thinking this, Yu Huai couldn't wait to take out the follow-up exercises of the "Great Chun Body Forging Technique" and examine them carefully.

After the Chunling stage of the Great Chun Body Forging Technique, the next stage is called Chun Yuan Gen, which corresponds to the early stage of Foundation Establishment for Qi Refining cultivators.

To break through to this level, one must not only perfect the Chun Spirit Body, but also spend seven days in advance nurturing the physical body under an ancient Chun tree that is over a hundred years old, expelling the turbid qi from the body, and circulating spiritual energy through the five internal organs and six bowels, bones and tendons for one hundred and ten cycles, in order to form the Chun Yuan Root.

By then, his body refinement strength will have reached the Foundation Establishment stage, making him a formidable opponent for early Foundation Establishment cultivators.

It's so exciting just thinking about it!

After reading it, Yu Huai was greatly encouraged. He put away the book "Da Chun Body Forging Technique," went outside, assumed a body-forging posture, and began his body-forging practice.

Several more days passed.

early morning.

Is Brother Yu Huai here?

A figure arrived outside the herb garden and called out through the fence.

Ok?

Is that Cheng Bei's voice? What's he doing here?

Yu Huai opened his eyes from his meditation, somewhat puzzled, but still stepped out of the house to greet them.

Not long after.

The two sat in the herb garden. Yu Huai poured him a cup of tea and asked:

"May I ask what brings you here, Brother Cheng Bei?"

"I wonder if Fellow Daoist Yu Huai wishes to establish his foundation?"

Cheng Bei didn't answer Yu Huai, but stared at his face and asked instead.

"That's what I'd like to do."

Yu Huai nodded, a slight sense of unease creeping into his heart.

Ha ha.

"Currently, the sect has a limited supply of Foundation Establishment Pills. After distributing them to the top twenty inner disciples, there are very few Foundation Establishment Pills available for exchange each year. Moreover, the contribution points required for these Foundation Establishment Pills are astonishing. Ordinary disciples don't know when they will be able to exchange for even one Foundation Establishment Pill."

"Brother Yu Huai, have you ever heard of the saying 'Let some get rich first, then others get rich later'?"

Cheng Bei looked at Yu Huai and said.

"I've heard a little about it, but I don't know what Brother Chengbei means by it?"

Yu Huai became increasingly puzzled, still unsure of what Cheng Bei was trying to do.

"Brother Yu Huai, let me be frank!"

"I've come here to invite you to join Senior Brother Qin's faction. I wonder if Brother Yu Huai would be willing?"

Cheng Bei spoke up.

Senior Brother Qin? Who is this?

Yu Huai was slightly taken aback. After thinking for a while, he still didn't know who this person was. Instead of refusing directly, he asked:

"Who is this Senior Brother Qin? And what does Brother Cheng Bei joining this faction have to do with my Foundation Establishment?"

After an incense stick has burned.

"Brother Cheng Bei, I need to think about it some more. Would it be alright if I gave you an answer in a few days?"

Yu Huai escorted Cheng Bei out of the medicine garden road.

"That's certainly feasible. I'm really looking forward to Brother Yu Huai joining us."

Cheng Bei smiled and agreed, then bid farewell to Yu Huai and left.

Watching him leave, Yu Huai seemed lost in thought.

During his conversation with Cheng Bei, he learned a lot about the Qingxuan Sect.

There are many factions among the Qi Refining disciples within the Qingxuan Sect, but they all share the same goal.

Disciples within each faction pool their resources to help one person in the faction achieve Foundation Establishment, and then, through that person, help the next person achieve Foundation Establishment.

This is what Cheng Bei meant by "the rich helping the poor."
