Chapter 75: Chapter 65 Foundation Building Pill

Xu Zhaori cast a look of relief and praise at Guo Huijun.

Some words he might not be able to say conveniently due to brotherly affection, but it is natural for Guo Huijun to say them. Liu Suiyun asked to borrow generals with great confidence, but who can guarantee that he is not like Liu Bei borrowing Jingzhou - borrowing without returning.

He had enough confidence in his own control ability. After all, there were too many of Liu Suiyun's old subordinates in this team. Once out of his control, accidents would inevitably occur.

But Liu Suiyun quickly played his trump card: "Why doesn't Miss Guo consider for Lao Xu? This is a great good thing!"

"Now is a crucial time for the development of Tianma Plain. There is a shortage of people, especially old people. Not one can be lacking!" Guo Huijun put away her silver spear. "Oh, Little Commander Star, I'm really sorry!"

Liu Suiyun smiled: "Why doesn't Miss Guo consider for Lao Xu? This is a good thing related to his establishment of the Foundation!"

Xu Zhaori blurted out: "Foundation Establishment Pill?"

Guo Huijun's hand also trembled. The silver spear that had just been put away almost fell to the ground. "Could it be related to the Foundation Establishment Pill? Is it really a Foundation Establishment Pill!"

Liu Suiyun smiled: "Naturally, it can only be a Foundation Establishment Pill. I haven't eaten a fried egg in all these years since I was little!"

He glanced at Guo Huijun's silver spiritual armor. This spiritual armor may have been passed down for several generations, but it is still shining silver as if it is brand new. Obviously, Guo Huijun, the owner, takes meticulous care of this spiritual armor.

"Has Miss Guo prepared the Foundation Establishment Pill for Lao Xu when he attacks the Foundation Establishment stage?" Liu Suiyun smiled. "Or is Miss Guo going to show her magnanimity and exchange the armor for a pill? I visited several official-run markets this time. The Foundation Establishment Pills in the markets are not cheap. However, by selling this spiritual armor, one should be able to barely gather enough money for a Foundation Establishment Pill."

Guo Huijun's smile was very forced. This spiritual armor was the apple of her eye. Most of her abilities came from this spiritual armor. How could she be willing to part with it? "Oh, oh, Little Commander Star, don't joke. Do you really have a way to get a Foundation Establishment Pill."

The Foundation Establishment Pill is not an ordinary commodity. It is a holy medicine necessary for a cultivator to break through the limit of Qi Refining. There is a saying among immortals, "Without a Foundation Establishment Pill, one cannot enter the immortal gate." Only by successfully establishing the Foundation can one transcend the mortal realm and enjoy a lifespan of two hundred and forty years.

Without such a holy medicine as the Foundation Establishment Pill, even a person with extraordinary talent has no hope of establishing the Foundation. However, such a holy medicine has always been monopolized by major sects and rarely circulates on the market. Even among the sects, it is extremely difficult to find one.

It should be noted that even elite disciples of sects can only hope to exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill from the sect with a number of one thousand great merits after making countless contributions to the sect. The most convenient way to accumulate these so-called one thousand great merits is to donate one hundred million copper coins to the sect for free.

From this perspective, a Foundation Establishment Pill is worth at least one hundred million coins. In fact, exchanging a Foundation Establishment Pill with one thousand great merits is only the most basic condition. Countless sect disciples hold thousands of great merits but have no hope of exchanging. They have to be exploited by the sect for free for many years to accumulate enough merits before they can have such an exchange opportunity.

And how many loose cultivators desire such an opportunity to be repeatedly exploited for many years but cannot get it? They can only obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill through channels such as markets or black market auctions. A Foundation Establishment Pill costs at least three thousand spirit stones. When Liu Suiyun asked in Jiazhou market, he even got a quotation of four thousand spirit stones.

This huge number is enough to buy countless shops and fields. Even those wealthy families that have accumulated over several generations are unable to support it. Not to mention that according to Liu Suiyun's understanding, although Xu Zhaori comes from a famous family, his family has already declined. Although he has had many adventures, he wants to buy a Foundation Establishment Pill but is unable to do so due to lack of resources. Therefore, Xu Zhaori had to put aside the matter of establishing the Foundation and break through to the fourteenth level of Qi Refining.

"I can't do anything about fried eggs. I should still have a chance to get a Foundation Establishment Pill!" Liu Suiyun said with a smile. "It depends on whether Miss Guo is willing to nod!"

Guo Huijun was willing to nod, but her gun tip was raised again. Her face became more gentle and soft, and with a sweet smile, she stared closely at Liu Suiyun. "Oh, oh, I don't know where Little Commander Star can get a Foundation Establishment Pill?"

This was Liu Suiyun giving her an explanation. If Liu Suiyun just casually fooled her, her big spear would not show mercy. Liu Suiyun also said calmly, "The Pang family in Tianji. Apart from the Pang family in Tianji, where else can I get a Foundation Establishment Pill."

As soon as Liu Suiyun said this, many old people of the Gu family who had come immediately fell silent. In the past two years and more, Xu Zhaori had forbidden mentioning anything related to the Pang family in Tianji. However, in private gatherings, the Pang family in Tianji was the thing they talked about the most.

Time cannot erase everything. When Liu Suiyun made this matter clear, the past lurking in their hearts burned up. The Pang family in Tianji!

The Pang family in Tianji!

The Pang family in Tianji!

Some people were silent, some clenched their weapons, some shed tears, some became stronger, some turned their heads away, and some squatted down silently. But no matter who it was, this was the most glorious and disaster-ridden and tortured years in their lives.

Even Guo Huijun fell into deep thought. She had to consider the feasibility of this matter.

Theoretically speaking, a family like the Pang family that has dominated Tianji County for more than a hundred years and has a history of cultivating immortality for several generations definitely has more than one Foundation Establishment Pill. After all, there are two Foundation Establishment cultivators in this generation alone, and one of them is even a half-step Golden Core cultivator. In the end, it became the most glorious stroke in Xu Zhaori's life.

When the Pang family was at its most glorious, everyone was guessing whether the Pang family would have a Golden Core cultivator first or three Foundation Establishment cultivators first. No matter which one they achieved, it would be enough to make the entire family a real cultivating immortal family and pass it on continuously.

Guo Huijun knew about this matter, and this matter itself also represented the possibility that the Pang family had at least one Foundation Establishment Pill. She quickly thought of the feasibility of this matter.

Soon, she felt that this matter was feasible. Although the Pang family was said to be a camel that was still bigger than a horse even when it was thin and dying, in the changes in Tianji, they had lost at least more than half of their strength. There was only one Foundation Establishment cultivator, Pang Tianshan, left in the family. Even the only spiritual armor was destroyed. There were countless new and old hatreds waiting for them to settle.

As long as Liu Suiyun was willing to deliberately provoke a war, the Pang family would probably be hard to escape this disaster this time. But she quickly thought of a problem.

After Liu Suiyun defeated the Pang family, who could guarantee that he could hand over the captured Foundation Establishment Pill to Xu Zhaori? After all, he himself was also a Qi Refining cultivator and also needed a Foundation Establishment Pill. Just like there was no guarantee that he would return the borrowed old subordinates from Tianji to Xu Zhaori.

After all, Guo Huijun had witnessed with her own eyes the fact that these old subordinates like Xia Jingjue were absolutely obedient and even blindly obedient to Liu Suiyun, and the fact that this foundation now made Xu Zhaori unable to leave Tianma Plain at all. "Oh, oh! If that's the case, I can nod. But to supervise you to fulfill your promise, I will also go to Tianji County with you. So that you won't throw me a fried egg that can't be eaten later!"

"Welcome Miss Guo to join in! Please rest assured, Miss Guo. The Pang family has at least one Foundation Establishment Pill!"

Seeing Guo Huijun give in, Liu Suiyun immediately felt relieved. The biggest obstacle to this matter had been overcome. "Extremely welcome. With Miss Guo in the formation, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of flames, we can walk as if on flat ground."

This was not an exaggeration. Although a spiritual armor is worth much more than a Foundation Establishment Pill and can only be used by a few warriors, the role of a warrior in spiritual armor on the battlefield is simply like a moving castle, a chariot with both offensive and defensive capabilities. If used well, it can even suppress a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Since he had obtained Guo Huijun's promise and saw many familiar figures, he immediately said loudly, "Those who are willing to settle this old score with the Pang family, come to me, Star Ruyü! What I am looking for are all brave warriors who are willing to follow me. Ahead there are only mountains of corpses and seas of blood..."

"Only countless enemies that cannot be killed..."

"Only endless blood that cannot be stopped..."

"Only enemies lurking behind..."

"But I will never abandon you. I am Star Ruyü, your trustworthy comrade-in-arms. I am willing to entrust my back to you!"

"Those who are willing to follow me to Tianji, come to me at that time!"

Liu Suiyun's words were simple, but Xia Jingjue and many old people who had fought their way out of Tianji shouted out two names that Liu Suiyun had always been reluctant to part with: "For Lady Yan!"

"Lady Yan, General Yan!"

"For the great commander!"

"General Yan, the great commander! Little Commander Star!"

Some people even said that classic witty saying: "General Yan, the most romantic. Little Commander Star, peerless in appearance!"

Everyone's emotions quickly reached a climax. Although Liu Suiyun didn't know how many people would give up this foundation in Tianma Plain and be willing to follow him back to Tianji County to have a decisive battle with the Pang family, he was confident enough.

Although he had been away from this team for nearly three years and there were not many old subordinates under his command, Liu Suiyun felt that this trip to Tianma Plain was more successful than he had imagined. Until Xu Zhaori suddenly smiled and said, "Lao Xing, I have a few words to say!"

"Lao Xu, if you have anything to say, just say it. I will definitely do it!"

Xu Zhaori smiled at Guo Huijun whose spear tip was still raised. "Let me say first. This time, Lao Xing, you coming to Tianma Plain to find your brother me is giving me face! Don't say anything about borrowing. This team is neither mine, Xu Zhaori, nor yours, Star Ruyü. It belongs to everyone. Whoever is willing to follow Lao Xing to Tianji County to settle accounts with old thief Pang, I fully support it! I will never block it!"

With such a statement from him, although Liu Suiyun knew it might not be his true intention, he was still deeply moved. Xu Zhaori continued, "Lao Xing, we are life-and-death friends. If you need anything, just ask. There are people if you want people. Whether it's the old people from Tianji or the new people after coming to Tianma Plain, it's all fine! If you want swords, spears, sticks, wound medicines, I will prepare them all for you. If you want fast horses and hunting eagles, just say a word. Even if you want gold, silver, jewels, spirit stones, and spirit talismans, I will prepare them all for you!"

"No matter what you want, just ask, Lao Xing. We are brothers. As long as you say a word, I, Xu Zhaori, will never be ambiguous. There is only one thing that won't work!" Xu Zhaori laughed loudly. "That is Huijun. Women are like clothes, and brothers are like hands and feet. Whoever wears my clothes, I will cut off whose hands and feet! Everything else is fine to talk about, but women are absolutely not allowed. Don't have any ideas about my wife!"

Xu Zhaori made it clear. "Huijun, don't go anywhere. Just stay in Tianma Plain and marry me first!"

Liu Suiyun hurriedly defended himself: "Lao Xu, with a clear conscience. Lao Xu, you also know what kind of man I am. I..."

Xu Zhaori continued to make it clear: "I know that Star Ruyü is a passionate person, but I'm putting my ugly words first. However..."

Xu Zhaori: "Now you still have to stay in Tianma Plain for some time. I have a big thing to do with Fellow Daoist An. I really need your help!"
