I traveled through time and space to become an immortal, but I died at the beginning

"Now that the foundation has been established, I can begin practicing the first level of the Five Elements Return to Heaven Technique."

The Five Elements Return to Heaven Technique is divided into nine levels and the entry level, which can be practiced to the late Nascent Soul stage.

The first step is to practice Qi Refining, which can help the cultivator strengthen his own spiritual attributes and quickly advance his realm through the rotation of the five elements.

The first level is for the initial stage of foundation building, where one can transform the five elements without using magic and utilizing attributes other than one's own spiritual roots.

Xuan Kun practiced for three days and successfully practiced the first level of the Five Elements Return to Heaven Technique.

He refined a few realm-breaking pills (lower-intermediate-level pills that can be used to break through bottlenecks in the foundation-building realm) and took out one to help Gu Ming break through the realm.

The rest will be sold to Jueming Valley. As for who buys them, Xuan Kun doesn’t need to worry about it.

If Gu Ming can't break through on his own, then it's not Xuan Kun's fault.

After taking some time to go to Juemingfang, Xuan Kun gave the elixir to Gu Ming, bought what he needed, and then went home.

Xuan Kun had no idea how much impact these realm-breaking pills had caused on Wangtian City.

Xuan Kun returned to the courtyard and refined some pills, talismans, formations, and several top-level magical weapons that he needed, and then left in a few days.

It was not until the day before the family competition that Wang Mingfu sent someone to inform Xuan Kun, and Xuan Kun came out of his cultivation state.

After taking a bath and having dinner with Xiaolu and Xiaolan, I went to Wangmingfu's yard.

Although Xuan Kun has already established his foundation and has transcended the realm of mortals, he can practice fasting and rely on liquid spiritual power to sustain his body's consumption.

But in name, Xuan Kun is still just a mortal cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

So you still have to pretend to eat when it’s time to eat.

In the courtyard of Wangming Fu, Xuan Kun sat opposite Wangming Fu as usual.

The master of Wangming who was sitting on the top said,

"Tianli, your Qi Refining Level 8 strength may not be enough to win first place in this competition, but with Grandpa's help, you can still be in the top three.

The top three can enter Jueming Valley for training without taking the test. Only in Jueming Valley can you have more opportunities to enter the foundation-building stage. Grandpa also came back from Jueming Valley after building his foundation."

"Only then can I become an elder of the family and have the status of a direct disciple like you do now. You should know that I was also a member of a collateral branch before, and I know the helplessness of collateral branches."

Wang Mingfu looked at Xuan Kun speaking passionately and lonely, as if he remembered waiting for me when I was young.

"It's all thanks to grandpa's entry into the foundation-building stage that our family has everything we have," Xuan Kun also echoed.

Although they have the strength to kill the old man, one needs to rely on the power of Nascent Soul and the other needs to set up a formation.

Besides, apart from anything else, this old man is really good to his grandson.

Wang Mingfu released a fiery red spear that hovered beside him, and also released a red round shield.

"This spear is called the Red Flame Spear. It is my only top-level magical weapon. It is made from red iron ore deep in the magma.

This shield is called the Mahogany Shield, a high-level magic weapon, and the black snake banner given to you is a high-level magic weapon.

They have been with me in battle for decades, so we can consider them old friends. This time, with them, you will have no problem getting into the top three."

Wang Mingfu looked at his only offspring with satisfaction.

Xuan Kun naturally would not refuse. After all, the top-level magic weapons, elixirs and talismans he had refined were things that could not be discovered or seen by others.

With these magical weapons from Wangming Mansion, it would be helpful to conceal his true strength.

Let people think of him as a cheater who relies on magic weapons to get into the top three.

The two chatted about some other things, and then Xuan Kun left and returned to his own courtyard.

Regarding Wang Mingfu, Xuan Kun learned through Wang Tianli's memory that

When he was young, he was a disciple of the Wang family. After decades of hard training, he entered the Jueming Valley and became an ordinary disciple of the Jueming Valley.

Afterwards, he made great contributions and obtained the qualification to establish his foundation in Jueming Valley. Luckily, he succeeded in establishing his foundation and then cultivated for several decades to reach the intermediate stage of establishing his foundation.

He was stuck in the bottleneck of the middle stage of foundation building and could not break through to the late stage of foundation building. That’s when he returned to the family and became the family elder.

The past hundred years have been pretty smooth, but I just haven't had the chance to reach a higher level.

In Xuan Kun's opinion, this famous master may have a chance to reach the late stage of foundation building in the future, but there is no hope of forming a pill.

Although the Foundation Establishment Stage is no longer at the level of ordinary people, the lifespan is only about two hundred years.

If we wait until Xuan Kun forms his elixir, considering how good he is to me, it is not impossible to help Wang Mingfu break through to the late stage of foundation building in advance.

Only if Wang Mingfu can bear it, will Wang Tianli's blow be enough.

The next day

The Wang Family Arena is located to the right of the Wang Family's main hall. It covers a large area, the size of several football fields, and has a total of ten fighting platforms.

There are stands surrounding the stadium for family members to watch the game.

There is only one highest stand where the family elders watch the game.

Most of the Wang family members gathered here today.

The area around the arena was basically filled with family members, as well as some famous monks from Wangtian City and its surrounding areas who were invited.

After all, this is a fighting arena open to all the Qi Refining Stage members of the family, so it is still worth watching.

On the elders' platform, three people were standing on the edge of the platform, looking down.

"There are really a lot of people in this year's competition," said a thin, middle-aged man in the middle of the three people.

All three of them were wearing the blue clothes of the Wang family. The only difference was that there was the word "Elder" next to the word "Wang" on their chests.

The skinny old man on the left also replied, "The family competition is held every four years, but this time it's different."

The tall and sturdy man on the right also said, "After all, the news that has been spread is about a senior from the Jueming Valley who has formed a Jindan realm. Naturally, the reward is the largest ever."

If Xuan Kun were there, he would know that this tall and strong man was Wang Tianli's grandfather.

"Ming Cheng, I heard that the realm-breaking pill that appeared in Juemingfang some time ago was bought by your father at a high price. It would be of no use to the clan leader who is in the late stage of foundation building. Did he buy it for you?" asked the skinny old man on the left.

The tall and thin middle-aged man in the middle waved his hand and said, "Brother Mingshu, you are joking. Father bought it for me, why would he give it to me? Although I am also stuck in the middle stage of foundation building, a realm-breaking pill is still hopeless to help me break through."

The famous master on the right also said

"I am confident that if I can obtain the realm-breaking pill from the clan leader, I will be able to break through the realm that has trapped me for more than twenty years. I hope it will be well-known. Do you want it too?"

The skinny old man looked at the name and laughed dryly. "I want to, of course I don't want to. You've only been here for twenty years, and I've been stuck for over forty. How could I not want to break through? But I also know my qualifications. Even if I get them, I can't break through."

"You know it yourself, yet you're still asking? It's not because of your son that you want to ask for it, is it?" Fu Wangming bluntly pointed out the skinny old man's thoughts.

"Hey, okay, okay, two elder brothers, the realm-breaking pill was obtained by the clan leader, so let the clan leader decide. There is no need for you to argue. We are all family, don't let this hurt the harmony," Wang Mingcheng in the middle advised kindly.

In the sky, three figures flew towards the platform where the three people were standing.
