Chapter 99: Half-Step Golden Elixir
Qian Ya Zong, Jiao Yang Feng!
A white figure stood proudly at the summit, facing the gentle breeze, with a somewhat cold expression. This person was once a proud existence among the new disciples - Ding Ning!
"It's been three years, and I've finally reached the late stage of foundation building. That person has been in seclusion for so long, I wonder if they've made another breakthrough by now?" Ding Ning said, somewhat distractedly.
Among the many new disciples, Ding Ning was confident that not everyone could catch up with him, even some older disciples were quickly surpassed by Ding Ning. But he didn't expect Ye Fei, who was almost a waste of humanity, to catch up with himself and even surpass him after going out on a mission once.
This put a lot of pressure on Ding Ning, who started frantically taking on tasks to exchange for spirit stones to buy pills and cultivate diligently, finally catching up with Ye Fei without falling behind.
"Ding Ning Shixiong, everyone has come to congratulate you, how did you end up running out yourself?" A beautiful voice came, it was precisely Yue Hua.
It was just the two of them at this moment, as if they had shed their youth and become young adults in their twenties!
"Nothing much, let's go out for some fresh air and head back!" As they spoke, Ding Ning and Yue Hua walked towards Ding Ning's residence.
……
Tianqin Peak, Wanfeng had just sent off Li Ruo, his face somewhat nostalgic. This time Ye Fei closed up, and in the blink of an eye several years passed, even Liu Gan became a great master after coming out of seclusion, but he himself was still wandering around in the Qi Refining stage.
"Wan Feng, hey, why the long face?" Just then, Liu Gan appeared beside him, Wan Feng was taken aback at first, and then felt a bit bitter.
"Even when you arrived, I didn't notice. Foundation Building stage. Hehe, indeed not ordinary." Wan Feng said with a smile.
"Look what you said, I was able to advance to the foundation building period, thanks to Jin Xuan's brother. If it wasn't for him getting me another foundation pill, this time I really wouldn't have had a chance, and even this foundation building almost failed."
Alas. But I'm clear in my heart, with my qualifications, advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage is already the limit. I'm very satisfied now, by the way, has Ye Xuan not come out of seclusion yet?" asked Liu Gan.
"Hmph, after advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage. The elder assigned you a separate mountain peak for cultivation. You haven't come back much either." Wan Feng said somewhat unhappily.
Upon hearing this, Liu Gan's face showed a hint of embarrassment, and after glancing around, he leaned in close to Wan Feng's ear and whispered something.
"What? You and Qinglian..." Wan Feng's eyes widened, but before he could finish speaking, Liu Qian covered his mouth with a sly smile.
"Haha, I knew it. You little scamp, why didn't you come back? So that's what happened, okay, I won't blame you!" Wan Feng suddenly laughed and said, then looked at Liu Qian with some ill intent.
"Don't tell anyone else, heh heh, if I wasn't afraid of hurting our relationship, I wouldn't have told you!" Liu Gan said with a self-satisfied expression, looking rather pleased with himself.
Just then, a bright and cheerful laughter suddenly rang out!
"Heh heh, you two, what are you up to again? Are you hiding something from me?" As soon as the words fell, a young man wearing white clothes, with slightly dark skin and a somewhat dull expression in his eyes, suddenly appeared beside the two of them.
This man is none other than Ye Fei who has just come out of the pass!
But at this moment, Ye Fei's figure had clearly grown taller and more robust, almost indistinguishable from that of an adult. The appearance of a young boy could no longer be seen, replaced by a somewhat majestic aura, with a resolute expression on his face. Only the clothes he wore were pitifully small.
Liu Gan looked at the young man in front of him and suddenly smiled, saying: "Ye Shixiong, if we had met outside, I'm afraid I wouldn't have dared to recognize you, haha."
"Oh, how, you little guy has made a breakthrough in building foundation, I don't even recognize you?" Ye Fei suddenly said with a stern face.
Upon hearing this, Liu Gan hastily replied: "No no no, what I meant to say is that Ye Shixiong's appearance has changed too much. No matter how high my cultivation reaches, I will never forget the few of us."
Upon hearing this, Ye Fei suddenly smiled and nodded, saying: "Haha, just kidding, look how anxious you got. Congratulations to you, you've finally reached the Foundation Building stage."
"Thanks to Brother Ye, otherwise I, Liu Gan, wouldn't have made it till today. Speaking of congratulations, we should be congratulating Brother Ye instead, who has broken through once again and become a solid Foundation Establishment cultivator, haha! If Ding Ning knew, she'd probably die from anger." Liu Gan said with a shake of his head.
Ye Fei just smiled and looked at Wan Feng, furrowing his brow as he said: "In all these years, you haven't been cultivating? How come you still haven't reached the peak of the 9th layer of Qi Refining? Judging from your innate talent, it should be better than that guy Liu Gan's. Why did you get stuck at the bottleneck of the Foundation Building stage?"
Upon hearing this, Wan Feng's expression darkened and he shook his head, saying: "I've tried many times, the medicinal pellets you left for me, I've also taken them, but it was all in vain. Perhaps, I'm not destined to lay my foundation in this lifetime, alas!"
Looking at Wan Feng's despondent expression, Liu Gan patted his shoulder, while Ye Fei smiled slightly and said softly: "Don't worry, we still have time. After a while, I'll think of a way to get you some elixirs."
"Thank you, Brother Ye!" Wan Feng's face was filled with gratitude as he said sincerely.
"This kind of talk, it's been a while, hehe, let's go in and chat!" As they spoke, Ye Fei and the other two turned around and entered the grand hall. Liu Gan somehow produced some spiritual wine, and the three of them chatted and laughed, sipping their wine, creating quite a lively atmosphere.
The sky gradually darkened, and the three of them all had some intoxication, nor did they use their magical powers to sober themselves up. In the end, just like ordinary people, they got drunk and fell asleep on the table.
The next morning, Liu Gan left without warning and before Ye Fei could guess what was happening, he hastily returned with a storage bag and threw it at Ye Fei.
"This should be enough for you to wear for the rest of your life, haha." Liu Gan said with a smile, and it turned out that he had actually gone out and gotten a storage bag of clothes from somewhere, all tailored according to Ye Fei's current wardrobe.
After changing into the clothes, Ye Fei felt that they fit well and was also quite satisfied with the style. The few of them chatted and laughed for a while, then Ye Fei asked about some recent changes in the outside world or Qian Ya Sect before leaving Tian Qin Peak.
Inside Lianqi Pavilion, Xuan Kei Master was looking at a white-clad young man in front of him with an inexplicable gaze, his face filled with some doubt.
"You, are you really Ye Xuan? Indeed a freak, to have reached the Half-Step Condensed Dan realm of Building Foundation Great Perfection. And to think that Dīng Níng's little brat was left behind... I'm truly ashamed, congratulations to you, haha." Master Xuān Kuì said, looking at Yè Fēi.
Upon hearing this, Ye Fei smiled slightly and said in a soft voice: "It's just luck, heh, right, Master Xuan Kai, I've come this time because there are some things that need your help with." (End of chapter)
