There were many monks heading towards Yaoling Peak along the way. When Yicheng arrived at Yaoling Peak, there were already hundreds of disciples waiting there.

Seeing Yicheng's arrival, these disciples who had witnessed Yicheng's miracle that day all said hello to Yicheng. Yicheng could feel that most of the monks were sincerely showing their kindness to him, while some others were smiling, but

There is also a hint of other emotions in it, jealousy, dissatisfaction, and greed.

Yicheng was a little surprised as to why he felt the emotions hidden under the smiling faces of these people. He couldn't figure it out for a while, so he stopped thinking about it and just responded politely to everyone.

Yuan Ping and Yan Bingling had arrived here early, and when they saw Yicheng coming, they hurriedly stepped forward to talk to Yicheng.

After not seeing each other for three months, Yi Cheng felt that there was a slight difference in the spiritual power of the two of them. If he hadn't been with them for a long time, Yi Cheng wouldn't have felt it, but the three of them had been there in the previous three months.

How could he not feel it at the same time? After thinking for a moment, Yi Cheng knew the reason. Both of them should have taken Kirin Zhuguo, otherwise there is no other explanation.

Presumably, they haven't found any way to refine it into elixirs or take it in any other way, so Ye Changmengduo only took it during this period.

"I haven't seen you for a few days. You've improved a lot. Congratulations!" Yicheng said what only they could understand.

"Haha, this is all thanks to Junior Brother Yi. Without your help, we don't know if we would still be here." Yuan Ping said sincerely.

"Yes, Senior Brother Yi, you are very famous now. In the past few days, many female disciples of the Yan family have asked me for news about you and your cave. I was afraid that they would disturb your practice, so I didn't say anything.

Haha, Senior Brother Yi, would you like me to introduce you to a few very beautiful ones, who will keep their wealth to others? There are many female nuns in our Yan family who admire you." Yan Bingling seemed to be very happy and spoke lively.

A lot, now she looks like a young girl.

"Uh..., no, no, no, no, I still want some peace and quiet!" Yicheng said quickly.

"Well, Junior Brother Yi, that's not right. Male seniors should get married and female seniors should get married. We are monks but not monks. It's not that we can't get married. Now you are the best Taoist partner for many female cultivators. Junior Sister Yan just said that

That's good. The good news doesn't go to outsiders. The three of us are so familiar with each other. This is a good thing. Of course, we think about our own people.

Look at Junior Sister Yan, Junior Sister Yan is very famous in Luoxia Mountain and she is definitely the dream lover of many monks. If you become a Taoist couple, it will be a match made in heaven, haha, I, the matchmaker, will not be able to escape then."

Yuan Ping was in a good mood, and the three of them were indeed familiar with each other, so he said this.

In fact, in Yuan Ping's mind, this is no joke. Both Yi Cheng and Yan Bingling are the best among their peers, and they get along quite harmoniously. If he can bring them together, he will indeed be very happy.

"Senior Brother Yuan...you, what are you talking about? I, how am I worthy of Senior Brother Yi!" Yan Bingling's face turned red when she heard this, and she said incoherently.

"Senior Brother Yuan, don't say this nonsense. I have no plans to find a Taoist partner yet, and you should be very clear about the difference in my qualifications. Even if I succeed in building the foundation, it will be extremely difficult to go further in the future. How can I think about it?

These things, let’s talk about Junior Sister Yan’s heavenly appearance, especially for a monk with my qualifications!” Yicheng also said hurriedly.

"Hahaha, you two said you are not good enough for each other, hey, I won't say it anymore, it was just a joke, don't take it seriously!" Yuan Ping looked at the two of them with smiles in his eyes.

Yan Bingling's face turned redder, she lowered her head and did not dare to look at Yi Cheng, but occasionally used her peripheral vision to see Yi Cheng's reaction.

If Yicheng said in his heart that he had no feelings for Yan Bingling at all, it would be a lie. Everyone loves beauty. What's more, Yicheng has never had any experience in relationships. Yan Bingling's appearance and personality are the best choice.

, but he is used to being alone, and has not thought about finding a Taoist companion for the time being. Moreover, he has too many secrets, and he is unwilling to disclose his secrets to someone before he completely trusts him.

Yan Bingling only got along well with him, not to the point where he felt that he could fully trust him. At this time, Yuan Ping mentioned this matter and Yi Cheng took a closer look at Yan Bingling. If he really wanted to find a Taoist companion, this Yan Bingling

Ling is indeed a good choice.

When Yicheng looked at Yan Bingling, he also glanced this way with cold eyes. The eye contact between the two became even more awkward, and they immediately looked away. Yuan Ping was laughing dryly on the side at this time, and Yicheng

It's okay, he is a man after all, but Yan Bingling feels that his days are like years.

Fortunately, not long after, I heard a monk from Yaoling Peak shouting: "The monks who came to receive the Foundation Establishment Pill will enter Yaoling Peak. The master and the elders will arrive shortly."

Under the leadership of the foundation-building monk, Yicheng and more than a thousand monks came to a broad platform halfway up Yaoling Peak.

This platform has a radius of three to four hundred feet, which is more than enough for more than a thousand monks. Yicheng, Yan Bingling, and Yuan Ping stood in the middle of the platform. To the south of the platform, there were several pavilions. From time to time, the seemingly simple pavilions floated out.

Every time you smell the fragrance, you will feel refreshed.

Yicheng and others did not stand for long when they saw a group of people flying from the bottom of the mountain. Twenty or thirty monks each controlled magic weapons. In a moment, they landed in front of the pavilion. The first person was the master of Luoxia Mountain, Mingxiu Zhenren.

Behind him are the heads of the Yan family, the Situ family and the Wei family, with Yun Feiyan standing next to the head.

"Disciples of Luoxia Mountain, before June there were 5,132 of you outside the mountain gate, but before March there were only 2,376 of you who came back with me. Today you are the only ones standing here.

There are more than a thousand people, so the road to Taoism can be seen to be difficult and dangerous, and among you, I don’t know how many of you can successfully build the foundation in one go.

But I know that among the many disciples of Luoxia Mountain, you are all lucky. You came back alive from the secret land, and you got the opportunity to build the foundation. I only want to tell you this to make you understand one thing, and that is this opportunity.

It was hard-earned by your own efforts, but also by the lives of thousands of other sect members.

Foundation building is just the first hurdle on the road to cultivation. Once you pass it, you can hope to go further. So I hope you will not give up regardless of whether the foundation building is successful this time. This opportunity not only belongs to you, but also to the entire Luoxia Mountain. You are

The hope for the future of Luoxia Mountain. Taking the road of cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. You must not slack off in the slightest, otherwise you will fall into eternal disaster!"

Master Mingxiu did not show any pretense, every word was spoken from the bottom of his heart. After hearing this, his disciples also became more determined in their cultivation. They will never give up until they succeed in establishing the foundation, otherwise they will end up being nothing in a few decades.

Blank loess.

When the disciples below heard this, there was a trace of regret on their faces. Yi Cheng also felt a touch of sadness in his heart. For today's harvest, how many monks have sacrificed their lives. This is just the first step. There are still more on the road to cultivation.

Despite countless hardships and obstacles, Yi Cheng silently kept these words in mind, but his faith in cultivation did not waver at all.

Forging ahead despite difficulties, and being able to stand here today with one's own qualifications shows that qualifications do not determine everything, and the path to cultivation does not entirely depend on qualifications. Character, opportunity, luck, and origin, all of which may change a person's destiny.

After Master Mingxiu in front said this, he stopped talking and said to Dan Qingzi, the peak master of Yaoling Peak beside him: "Let's begin!"

Na Danqingzi is the master of Yaoling Peak and the only master-level alchemist in the sect. His attainments are far above those of other alchemists.

Take the refining of foundation-building pills as an example. An ordinary alchemist can achieve success in three or four of every ten furnaces, which is considered good. However, a master alchemist like Dan Qingzi can achieve more than 50% success. Don't underestimate this.

A 10% improvement. The higher you go, the more difficult it is to improve. Most of the foundation-building pill ingredients are hard to find. With this master-level alchemist in charge, the foundation-building pills in Luoxia Mountain will be increased by 10%.

For a sect, although the foundation-building disciples are not high-level, they are definitely the backbone. The reason why those sects that have lasted for tens of thousands of years can continue to be popular is not because they have high-level monks on duty at all times, but because they are

The level of foundation building and elixir formation remains stable, which is also the basis for the sect's everlasting prosperity.

Therefore, having 10% more Foundation Building Pills will definitely be of great benefit to Luoxia Mountain.

The sect collects only ten types of medicinal materials from disciples each time that cannot be cultivated. The prescription for the Foundation Establishment Pill requires a total of more than 20 kinds of spiritual herbs and elixirs. The other dozen types are grown by the sect all year round. Although these

Medicinal herbs are not very precious, but the demand is not small every time, so the sect's investment is also huge.

Every time the elixir is prepared, in addition to being distributed to the disciples who turned in the medicinal materials, the sect can also get 20 to 30% of the profits. These additional foundation-building elixirs are only enough to make up for the consumption of auxiliary medicinal materials, so for the sect disciples

It is said that there is no profit for the sect in this matter, but for the long-term development of the sect, such investment is completely necessary.

Those casual cultivators usually recruit sects to practice the foundation-building elixir on their behalf. In addition to handing over the same share of medicinal materials, they also have to pay a large amount of spiritual stones as the cost of elixir refining.

At this time, only the disciples of the Luoxia Mountain sect were here, and those casual cultivators would have to wait for some time before they could get the Foundation Building Pill. And just after the leader finished speaking to Dan Qingzi, twenty architects came out of the pavilion.

The basic monks, they walked up to everyone, each took out a square table from the storage bag and placed it on the ground. Then with a wave of their hands, dozens of jade bottles appeared on the table. These jade bottles are all made of cold jade, which can guarantee the elixir.

The spiritual power will not be lost.

Seeing the jade bottle appear, the Qi Refining Stage monks present could not help but breathe a little faster. They stared at the jade bottle non-stop, as if they were afraid it would fly away.

After the foundation-building monks took out the jade bottles, Dan Qingzi said: "Now divide into twenty groups and go to the front to collect them. After receiving the foundation-building pills, go back to where you are and wait for a while. The leader and the elders will announce something later."

As soon as Dan Qingzi finished speaking, these Qi Refining Stage monks quickly formed into twenty teams, with each team having about fifty people, and then stepped forward one by one to receive the Foundation Establishment Pill. The monks who distributed the pills each held a purple jade tablet.

After deducting the contribution of the person receiving the elixir, the corresponding Foundation Building elixir will be given to them.

More than 90% of the thousands of monks can only exchange for one foundation-building pill. Occasionally, one or two monks will exchange two pills at a time, which will attract jealousy from the people next to them.

Yicheng and Yan Bingling and Yuan Ping stood in the middle of a team together. After a quarter of an hour of waiting, it was finally Yuan Ping's turn who was standing in the front. He stepped forward and handed his identity jade token to the foundation-building period

Senior brother, he said: "I'm sorry, senior brother!"

The monk smiled and said nothing. Each of the monks came up with a polite word. If he responded to them all, it would waste a lot of time. Moreover, at this time, the monks got the Foundation Establishment Pill and didn't bother to pay attention to it. They took the jade

After reading the card, the monk used his spiritual consciousness to check it briefly and confirmed that there was information about the redemption of the Foundation Establishment Pill.

He was about to ask Yuan Ping to send the contribution points, but he was shocked by the string of numbers. The message showed, Redeem the Foundation Establishment Pill: Submit the medicinal materials to be converted into 76 copies, and exchange the contribution points for 228,000 points! In the monk's heart

Horrified, he quickly asked: "What do you call this junior brother? How many Foundation Establishment Pills do you want to redeem?"

Hearing this, Yuan Ping said: "Senior brother, just call me Yuan Ping. Please exchange it for three pills!"

"Junior brother is really powerful. He was able to achieve such a harvest. However, you need to wait a moment to redeem more than three Foundation Establishment Pills. The Peak Master will distribute them uniformly after other monks here have distributed them."

"Oh, then I'll just wait here for a moment!" After saying that, Yuan Ping walked to the side.

Yan Bingling was standing behind Yuan Ping. She also heard what the monk said clearly, so she also walked aside.

The foundation-building senior brother was a little surprised and asked subconsciously: "You also want to pay back more than three pills?"

"Yes, senior brother." Yan Bingling replied immediately.

The Foundation Establishment Stage monk was speechless for a while. Who are these people? He had worked very hard to get a Foundation Establishment Pill, but these two people actually wanted to exchange it for more than three pills.

Although he was a little shocked, he didn't care too much. After all, there were always some outstanding monks who performed well every time.

Then he said to Yi Cheng who was standing behind him: "Hey, come up here. Those two need to be replaced by more than three pills. How many pills do you plan to replace?"

The monk seemed to be hit hard by the two of them, so he used Yicheng's arrival to make a joke to make himself more relaxed.

Yicheng smiled and said: "Brother, I also plan to change a few more pills. I'll just stay here and talk about it later!"

The foundation-building monk opened his mouth slightly and said nothing more. At this time, the monk behind Yicheng came to him and timidly said: "Brother, I will just change one."

It seems that the performance of Yicheng and others made him embarrassed to say that he would only exchange for one pill.

"Oh, here you go, hand over your contribution points."

"Okay, senior brother." The monk quickly handed in his contribution points.
