The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Xiao Han told Lu Xinyu and the others about the Foundation Establishment Pill.

The two were naturally overjoyed, and both said that as long as the price was not outrageously high, they would definitely buy the Foundation Establishment Pill.

For this reason, the two of them began to frequently go in and out of the Monster Forest again, just to accumulate more spirit stones to buy foundation-building pills.

Ji Zhiheng was very efficient. Ten days later, he sent a message to Xiao Han, saying that he had found a way to get the Foundation Establishment Pill, but the other party asked for 150,000 spirit stones per pill.

This price is completely within the affordability of Lu Xinyu and the others.

So Xiao Han made the decision directly and asked him to bring the Foundation Establishment Pill over for the trade.

After receiving Xiao Han's message, Lu Xinyu and Ye Guchen abandoned the third-level monster they were about to encircle and rush back immediately.

There are many monsters. If one is gone, there is still another one. But the foundation-building pill cannot tolerate any changes or mistakes.

Moreover, the price of 150,000 spirit stones is already quite reasonable.

After all, the price of the Foundation Establishment Pill at the auction has been getting higher and higher, approaching the 200,000 spirit stones mark.

In a teahouse box, Lu Xinyu and Ye Guchen excitedly took out a jade token worth 150,000 spirit stones each and handed it to Ji Zhiheng.

Ji Zhiheng took out two pill bottles and placed them in front of Xiao Han instead of giving them directly to the two of them.

"Friend Xiao, please help inspect the goods and put their minds at ease."

Xiao Han originally wanted to say something like "No need, I believe in you, Fellow Daoist Ji", but when he thought of Lu Xinyu and the others staring at him eagerly, he opened the pill bottle and took a closer look.

She had once taken a foundation-building pill, so she was familiar with the pill's pattern, color, and smell.

After looking at both pills, Xiao Han nodded to indicate that they were correct.

Lu Xinyu and Ye Guchen both put away the pills with joy on their faces, and their gratitude to Xiao Han was beyond words.

Xiao Han wants to treat Ji Zhiheng to a meal to thank him for helping to make this happen.

Ji Zhiheng smiled and waved his hand, indicating that the senior brother who sold the elixir should treat him to a meal, and he would take the spirit stones back and make a killing from this senior brother.

Xiao Han had no choice but to buy him a pot of fine wine worth five thousand spirit stones.

Although Senior Brother Li Moyun is also in the Juxian Sect, he is far inferior to Ji Zhiheng in terms of connections.

Therefore, Xiao Han wanted to maintain a good relationship with Ji Zhiheng, as he might have to trouble him many times in the future.

After leaving the teahouse, Lu Xinyu said that she and Ye Guchen should pay for the five thousand spirit stones, and Ye Guchen said that he could pay for the five thousand spirit stones by himself.

Xiao Han waved his hand to stop their fight.

Over the past few years, Badou had shared quite a few spirit stones with them, so five thousand spirit stones was nothing. Besides, this was also her own wish to maintain this network.

After Ye Guchen obtained the Foundation Establishment Pill, he immediately began to prepare for his retreat.

Lu Xinyu also began to practice day and night, striving to reach the state of great perfection as soon as possible.

There was no need for Badou to go hunting. Xiao Han was still a little bit away from the peak of the initial stage of foundation building, so she detained Badou at home to practice, and she herself practiced hard day and night behind closed doors.

Feeling that the spiritual energy had filled up every last inch of his dantian, Xiao Han slowly opened his eyes as he realized that no matter how much he circulated and refined the spiritual energy, not a single bit could remain.

It took almost ten years from the time she successfully established her foundation to now, and she finally reached the peak of the initial stage of foundation building.

This speed can be said to be much faster than that of many foundation-building cultivators.

But Xiao Han knew that all this was achieved through her years of seclusion and hard practice.

Over the past ten years, she had spent essentially eighty percent of her time in seclusion. It could be said that the time she spent cultivating was equivalent to the time a normal cultivator would spend over twenty years.

As of today, she can finally take a break.

However, when she thought about the barrier from the early to middle stage, she didn't know when she would be able to break through, and she couldn't help feeling a little heavy in her heart.

She is sixty years old now.

But seeing the face in the water mirror that looked only twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old always made her forget her real age.

Xiao Han felt that this practice was simply a game of insatiable desire.

When practicing Qi, just think about building the foundation, and you will be satisfied.

But after building the foundation, I thought that I would be satisfied if I could form the elixir.

Maybe after forming the elixir, he will think about becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Alas! Desire is insatiable!

No matter what, we have achieved our interim goals and can always take a breather.

Xiao Han got up and left the bedroom and practice room, and came to the living room, where he saw Badou sleeping soundly in the bird's nest.

Oh, I really envy Croton who is so heartless and practices what comes naturally.

Even if you lock it up at home and ask it to practice more, it still needs to eat and sleep.

Xiao Han deliberately didn't wake it up, opened the door and prepared to go out alone to get some fresh air.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she opened the stone door, she found Lu Xinyu walking back and forth in front of her house.

Seeing Xiao Han suddenly open the door, she was startled and then said embarrassedly: "Sister Han, did I disturb you?"

Xiao Han: "No, I didn't know you were outside. Come in."

Without asking, she knew that this girl must have encountered some difficulties.

Croton was awakened at this time. Seeing Lu Xinyu coming, he thought she was here to take him hunting.

He immediately flapped his wings and flew up, "Ayu, let's go, let's go."

It's been stuck in the house for these days and it's suffocating to death.

Xiao Han grabbed it and threw it into his bedroom, "Go inside and practice."

Then he invited Lu Xinyu to sit down at the stone table in the living room.

"Tell me, what difficulties have you encountered?"

Lu Xinyu sat down, lowered her head, and said with a lonely look: "Sister Han, Ye Guchen, he failed in building his foundation."

Xiao Han was stunned for a moment, then he understood.

Ye Qi had failed to build his foundation on his own before succeeding the second time using the foundation-building pill. Qiu Yinong had taken the foundation-building pill twice before she succeeded.

She herself was able to successfully establish her foundation thanks to the blessing of the Six-Leaf Three-Flower Pill.

It can be said that the three of them are already very lucky.

"It doesn't matter, he still has a chance to try." Xiao Han could only comfort him in this way.

Lu Xinyu twisted her fingers and hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Xiao Han.

"I want to give him my foundation-building pill and let him try again. After all, I haven't reached the great perfection yet."

"Are you crazy?" Xiao Han glared at her, looking disappointed in her.

"I know that you two, hunting together and spending so much time together, will definitely develop feelings for each other. But, if you've given up so much of yourself and cared so wholeheartedly for him, then why did you run away from the marriage in the first place?"

"I, that's different..."

Lu Xinyu lowered her head and defended herself in a low voice.

"Why is it different? What was your original reason for not wanting to get married? Was it for love?"

Lu Xinyu stammered, "I also know that Foundation Establishment Pills are hard to come by, but when I saw him forcing a smile after failing to establish his foundation, it really hurt me, so I wanted to make him happier."

Xiao Han: Did this girl go from being an independent woman who bravely pursued the path of immortal cultivation to being a love-brained person?
