Chapter 3937: Taking another Foundation-building golden pill

Translator: 549690339

Now that the two stalks of heart-devouring exquisite gra.s.s in the Jade s.p.a.ce had matured and everything was ready, he could finally open the furnace and refine the foundation establishment golden pill again!

Lin Yi had been looking forward to this day for far too long-it’d been three months since he’d gotten the heart-devouring exquisite gra.s.s seeds.

He entered the Jade s.p.a.ce, adjusted his state, and selected the two heart-devouring exquisite herbs, as well as the other ingredients he’d prepared beforehand. He started the process again, already familiar with it.

A few hours later, Lin Yi received the freshly made Foundation Stage golden elixir. Chengse was the same quality as always, and there were three of them!

Originally, the two heart-devouring exquisite gra.s.s seeds that Lin Yi had were cultivated in batches due to inherent deficiencies. No matter how good the other supplementary ingredients were, making two Foundation-level golden cores was the limit-there was no way he could make one more.

The reason why he was able to get three of them was all thanks to the heaven-defying effects of the Jade s.p.a.ce. The unique environment completely made up for the damage to the vital Qi caused by the innate deficiency, which was why he was so surprised at this moment.

Lin Yi clenched his fist as he looked at the three golden pills in his hand. Three months of hard work didn’t go to waste!

Without hesitation, Lin Yi adjusted his condition and started consuming the Foundation Stage golden pill.

According to his previous experience, a Supreme-grade foundation-building golden elixir was enough to break through the barrier. Then, he would directly take the Supreme-grade foundation-building barrier-breaking elixir that he had made before, which was enough to guarantee the success of the breakthrough.

Three peak quality foundation Stage golden cores were more than enough, and he could even use two more later. But to Lin Yi’s surprise, he still couldn’t touch the barrier after taking two peak quality golden cores.

Lin Yi couldn’t help but wonder if the Foundation Stage golden elixir was no longer effective on him. It wasn’t until he took the third one that he finally touched the solid barrier between the peak of the early stage and the mid stage of the Foundation Stage!

Lin Yi didn’t know what to say about this result, but he could only choose to accept it silently. No wonder his bitter senior brother and Lu bianren all said that the peak of the early Foundation Stage was a hurdle that all pract.i.tioners had to face.

Many astonis.h.i.+ngly talented cultivators had previously been doing very well, the genius Halo above their heads showing off, and even breaking through to the Foundation Stage seemed to be an easy task. However, a large number of people were stuck at the peak of the early Foundation Stage, unable to make any progress for decades. Their geniuses were ground into mediocrity, and from then on, they became ordinary people.

It was no wonder that Meng jueguang, the eldest senior brother, had not been able to break through this barrier for so long before he met Xu lingchong!

This wasn’t just one or two cases, but a stage that all cultivators had to go through. Being stuck at the peak of the early Foundation Stage for decades or even centuries was a very normal thing in the cultivation world. In fact, if one didn’t have a large amount of cultivation resources or encounter special opportunities, many people would still be at the peak of the early Foundation Stage until they grew old.

There was a rumor in the streets that the peak of the foundation building realm was an insurmountable hurdle. Every time one pa.s.sed it, it was like a carp leaping through the Dragon Gate. After being reborn, one’s strength would definitely have an explosive increase.

From the peak of the early Foundation Stage to the mid Foundation Stage, most people would need tens or even hundreds of years before they could cross this threshold. No wonder Lin Yi had to use three peak-grade foundation Stage golden elixirs to just barely touch the barrier. This even included the results of his hard work for the past few months.

However, although a Supreme-grade foundation establishment golden pill was very precious, it was definitely worth it to be able to offset the years of bitter cultivation of others who didn’t take pills.

One had to know that even with Lin Yi’s mental fort.i.tude, the process of filling in three Supreme-grade foundation-level golden cores in a row was as scary as gambling on a card table. Fortunately, the final result was a happy one, and no one was disappointed.

After taking the pill, Lin Yi’s next step was to break through to the mid-stage in one go!

Just as Lin Yi was focused on breaking through, his opponents weren’t idle either. The one with the biggest movement was Meng Tong-Meng jueguang had finally decided to let him take the meridian heart-shattering pill he’d prepared long ago.

Because the Black-backed rod ape had been killed in an instant, Meng Tong’s current state of spiritual sense backlash made it unsuitable for him to take a pill as overbearing as the meridian heart-shattering pill. Meng jueguang was well aware of this, but he had no other choice. He was running out of time.

The final a.s.sessment segment was set to be ten days later. According to the rules that were announced earlier, this was the decisive segment that could truly decide the outcome. To all the rookies partic.i.p.ating in the a.s.sessment, success or failure would depend on this one move.

With Meng Tong’s strength at the early Foundation Stage, it was obvious that he couldn’t fight Lin Yi. Even if he had Murong Zhen at the peak of the early Foundation Stage, he wouldn’t be able to do anything to Lin Yi.

As mentioned before, under Lu bianren’s Secret operation, the upper echelons of the pavilion were starting to pay attention to Lin Yi’s brilliance. Meng jueguang was feeling proud of himself, but he was already feeling quite the pressure.

If they didn’t think of a way to take Lin Yi down as soon as possible, not only would it be hard to explain to Xu lingchong, but it would also be extremely difficult for Meng jueguang to suppress Lin Yi in the future.

The third Pavilion master couldn’t even suppress a newbie? That wasn’t all-what he feared the most was that Lin Yi would be the manager when he became the third house master! No matter who became the eldest senior brother, it had nothing to do with him, the third Pavilion master. The two subordinates didn’t listen to him, so he was even more miserable than Lu bianren!

Therefore, in Meng jueguang’s opinion, the final segment of the newcomer a.s.sessment was his last chance. Under such pressure, he could only place all his bets on Meng Tong.

In truth, if he had not been forced into a corner, Meng jueguang would not have planned on doing this. After all, this would be too cruel for the ignorant Meng Tong. Moreover, after so many things, he had already seen through Meng Tong’s inability to accomplish anything. He was not someone who could be entrusted with great things.

In comparison, the other two men under him, Murong Zhen and Li Zhengming, were much more reliable than Meng Tong.

Unfortunately, although Murong Zhen was willing to sleep with him, she did not put herself in the right position. She was only willing to be his ally and not his subordinate. Meng jueguang had to be wary of her when he used her and could not trust her completely.

As for li Zhengming, he was much more reliable compared to Meng Tong. Unfortunately, he was too weak. Even if he took the meridian heart-breaking pill, he wouldn’t be a threat to Lin Yi.
