UGB Chapter 35 Foundation Building Pill
Chapter 35 Foundation Building Pill
Qin Fang watched Han Li leave, then gave a self-deprecating bitter smile before heading towards his residence.
A bustling workshop...
This is the source of talisman paper produced in Yellow Maple Valley. As everyone knows, the talisman paper used by cultivators is made from either the fur of spirit beasts or the bark of certain precious spirit trees.
These things can't be used right away; they need to be processed in advance using special methods.
Such tedious and repetitive tasks would naturally not fall to the senior cultivators of the sect, so they could only be done by the Qi Refining stage disciples.
Qin Fang was one of the "oxen and horses" among them.
...Four days later.
Amidst envious glances, Qin Fang bowed and saw the two stewards off.
Once everyone was out of sight, Qin Fang didn't give anyone else a chance. He went straight to his room and closed the door tightly.
The Foundation Establishment Pills... have been distributed!
"How could this happen?"
Qin Fang held a shimmering blue pill between his two fingers.
Is this the famous Foundation Establishment Pill?
There wasn't much special about it. Even though it was right in front of me, I couldn't detect that it contained energy that could allow a Qi Refining disciple to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
"Logically speaking..."
"After Li Huayuan took half of my spiritual medicine, there was no way I could get a Foundation Establishment Pill."
"Could it be that Li Huayuan isn't after my elixir at all! Instead, I'm his 'target'?!"
Qin Fang's pupils dilated several times as he considered an extremely terrifying possibility.
Even if Qin Fang grumbled inwardly a few times after the elixir was taken away, he would never do anything unnecessary.
This is why Qin Fang agreed almost without hesitation after Li Huayuan offered to take him as a disciple.
just now……
The half of the spiritual medicine that was supposed to be taken as a gift for becoming an apprentice will not be handed over to the sect!
But now it seems...
Why take me as your disciple if you don't want the elixir?
Is there anything about me that the other person would covet?
Zhuanzhuan second-hand platform...
That's impossible. Li Huayuan didn't even enter the forbidden area, so how could he possibly suspect me because of something?
Could it be a problem with the original owner of this body?!
My memories... because I was slightly injured by that disciple of the Giant Sword Sect, I did lose some of them.
Is there something between Li Huayuan and me that I don't know?
but……
Why didn't this scene happen in the original timeline, even though 'Qin Fang' died in the forbidden area and never came out?
If Li Huayuan were related to Qin Fang, he would never have remained completely unaware of his emotions!
Why is that?
Qin Fang was completely bewildered, and his frustration grew even stronger.
"Oh, right, Han Li!"
Qin Fang suddenly remembered something, put away the Foundation Establishment Pill, turned around and opened the door to leave.
…………
Several hours later.
Qin Fang walked out of Uncle Ma's herb garden and left with a blank expression.
He came here, naturally to find his fellow disciple Han Li.
After making inquiries, Qin Fang learned that Han Li had also recently received two Foundation Establishment Pills from the steward.
This quantity...
It's getting a bit ambiguous!
Logically speaking, even if Han Li were given three Foundation Establishment Pills, no one in the sect would have anything to say, since Han Li had indeed brought back nearly thirty spiritual herbs for the sect.
But giving two... seems reasonable.
Based solely on the number of Foundation Establishment Pills Han Li obtained, Qin Fang had no way of knowing whether his cheap master had taken any spiritual herbs from Han Li.
Even if they take nearly half of the quantity, the sect might still give Han Li two Foundation Establishment Pills.
In this way...
"I was originally planning to find an opportunity to leave the valley when the time was right."
"Looking back now, it's probably best not to do something so foolish!"
"For the next two or three years, I'd better not leave Yellow Maple Valley even for a moment!"
Qin Fang made up his mind.
Although he couldn't be sure why his cheap master had accepted him as a disciple.
But even if there is some ulterior motive, there should be some signs of it within two or three years.
In addition~
If nothing unexpected happens, it will take Han Li two or three years before he can refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Qin Fang has now obtained the Foundation Establishment Pill, but he has no intention of taking it immediately!
Firstly, Qin Fang had just lost a large amount of his lifespan, which affected his very essence, and he needed some time to recuperate.
Secondly... Foundation Establishment is no small matter, and I must make thorough preparations! Once all preparations are complete, the news that I am about to establish my foundation will definitely not be kept secret from everyone.
If the foundation is successfully established by then, that will be fine.
What if we fail?
Don't let him fail one day and then succeed in Foundation Establishment a few years later! Even a fool would know that Qin Fang must have some Foundation Establishment Pill of 'unknown origin' on him.
Therefore, it's best to wait until Han Li successfully refines the medicine, and then hitch a ride with him!
My own aptitude isn't bad. If I could establish my foundation with just one Foundation Establishment Pill, I wouldn't even need to secretly obtain Han Li's Foundation Establishment Pill.
If one pill doesn't work, we'll just forcibly trade Han Li's Foundation Establishment Pill. After all, Han Li refined a huge number of Foundation Establishment Pills when he was establishing his foundation! Moreover, he was unconscious for a period of time because of the Foundation Establishment matter.
Even if you wake up and find the quantity is not quite right...
Hehe~ It's totally fine!
After failing to find the restriction, Han Li became suspicious.
Either... or they believe that they accidentally lost some energy while they were unconscious.
Or perhaps, they accidentally fell into the fire and were burned to ashes.
Even though Han Li's actions were unexpected.
Qin Fang didn't care. No matter how Han Li judged the matter, Qin Fang was certain that he would never make a fuss about it, and would even become more cautious in his actions.
Han Li won't cause any trouble.
...on the other side.
Han Li watched Qin Fang's departing figure, his brows furrowed tightly.
After a long while, he cautiously looked around before opening the restrictions on the herb garden.
Originally, the matter of the Foundation Establishment Pill had already come to an end.
After returning to Uncle Ma's herb garden, Han Li received similar information from him as Qin Fang had.
It seems that both of them... made a misjudgment?
Today, when Qin Fang came to visit, although he tried his best to control his expression, Han Li, who could read people's expressions, still noticed a faint sense of unease on Qin Fang's face.
This, on the contrary, made Han Li suspicious!
He had already learned a harsh lesson because of the master-disciple relationship.
I still feel lingering fear!
Therefore, after Qin Fang left, Han Li secretly made up his mind that for the next few years, he would stay at home and avoid going out except when he needed to collect materials!
Han Li, who was already quite "unsociable", has become even more "unidentifiable" due to Qin Fang's intrusion.
and……
Li Huayuan was completely unaware of this.
Qin Fang's understanding of his cheap master began with the fact that his cheap master had taken Han Li as his disciple.
The other party took away the spiritual herbs and remedies that belonged to Han Li, but did not really care about Han Li's life in the valley.
Given this stereotype, Qin Fang naturally didn't have much affection for Li Huayuan.
But he forgot...
Li Huayuan was also an extremely loyal and righteous person; otherwise, he wouldn't have secretly taken care of his deceased senior brother's descendants for so many years.
Speaking of which...
There was another reason why Li Huayuan accepted Qin Fang as a disciple: Qin Fang's surname was Qin! And his senior brother, who died to save him, also happened to have the surname Qin.
