Spring goes and autumn comes, and five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

One morning.

Xu Changshou, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"Twelve drops of foundation-building liquid are finally complete."

Xu Changshou looked inward, let out a long breath, and smiled knowingly.

From the moment he stepped into the world of cultivating immortals, Xu Changshou worked diligently and did not dare to delay for even a moment.

After more than seventy years of hard work, he finally established the foundation for great perfection, true perfection.

This year, Xu Changshou was eighty-four years old.

After the foundation is built, one can strive to reach the Golden Core Realm, but Li Linhao said that it is not appropriate to strive to reach the Golden Core Realm at this time, and it is best to wait for a period of time to settle down.

Li Linhao took half a year to calm down, and Xu Changshou decided to take half a year to calm down as well.

So, next, Xu Changshou suddenly relaxed and didn't think about forming the elixir or practicing at all.

He went to the foot of the mountain, found a lot of flowers and plants, and transplanted them into his own yard to plant them.

He decided to take advantage of this time to plant some flowers and plants.

As for why he wanted to plant flowers and plants, Xu Changshou learned it all from his ancestors.

The ancestor's cultivation has reached the Nascent Soul stage, but he likes to do things that ordinary people do. Xu Changshou doesn't know why.

But I always feel that it’s right to learn from our ancestors.

Just as his ancestors farmed the land, he planted flowers and plants.

At the beginning, Xu Changshou did not understand the habits of various flowers and plants. After planting for a few days, some of the flowers and plants became sick.

So Xu Changshou went to the folk market again and bought a lot of books on growing flowers and plants.

After reading many books, Xu Changshou realized that the planting methods of each flower and plant are different.

Some like sunshine, some are afraid of exposure to the sun, some need watering, and some like shade.

After understanding the habits of flowers and plants, Xu Changshou gained experience in planting them again, and the flowers and plants he transplanted began to flourish.

At this time, Xu Changshou seemed to have truly become a gardener, forgetting to practice, forgetting to form elixirs, forgetting to draw talismans, and forgetting everything related to cultivating immortals.

Soon, Xu Changshou was pleasantly surprised to find that his mental power increased rapidly. Although he had not practiced for a month, he was more adept at controlling and applying the spiritual energy in his body.

As he got closer to the flowers and plants, the hostility of a cultivator in him slowly subsided.

Xu Changshou understood that what he did was right. Although he didn't understand why it was so, he knew it was right to learn from the ancestor.

The ancestor has lived for hundreds of years. If you just learn from his cultivation methods, you will definitely benefit greatly.

Time passed, and after another two months, Xu Changshou felt that he had settled down enough and could try to break through to the Golden Elixir stage.

But he didn't do that. He planned to wait for another three months or even half a year before making any decision.

Two months later, Xu Changshou felt that his body had become more harmonious and balanced. He knew that this was the complete settling down of his body.

"Brother Changshou, I'm here."

A familiar voice suddenly sounded in the air.

Xu Changshou looked up and saw Li Linger, dressed in a purple Taoist robe, floating towards him like a banished immortal.

Xu Changshou felt a powerful aura inside her body.

"Ling'er is here, come quickly."

Xu Changshou smiled and waved, but he was secretly surprised.

At this time, Li Linger came flying in the air without using a flying sword, which meant that she had broken through the Jindan realm.

Flying in the air is the exclusive domain of Jindan cultivators.

A cultivator who has established his foundation can only stay in the air for a short time and cannot fly in the air so freely.

Li Ling'er landed in the yard and smelled the fragrance of flowers. Looking at the flowers and plants all over the yard, Li Ling'er smiled and said, "Brother Changshou, how do you have the leisure time to plant flowers and plants?"

"Forehead……"

Xu Changshou was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "I have completed my foundation building. I plan to settle down for a while and then prepare to form the elixir."

Li Ling'er was also stunned when she heard this: "Does it need to settle before forming the pill?"

Xu Changshou was slightly surprised: "Didn't you settle down before forming the elixir?"

"No."

Li Linger shook her head: "After I reached Consummation, I went into seclusion and broke through directly."

"This……"

Xu Changshou was speechless.

Indeed, after perfection, one can form a pill, and the process of precipitation is not absolutely necessary.

If the talent is good enough, you can still form a pill without sedimentation.

Li Linger's master was not around, so there was definitely no one to help her calm down, so she formed a pill directly.

"Don't talk about this..."

Xu Changshou changed the subject, glanced at Li Ling'er, and asked with a smile, "Ling'er, you've already reached the Core Formation stage, why are you still wearing the robes of a Foundation Establishment cultivator?"

Li Linger stuck out her tongue and said, "I just formed a pill and I wanted to tell Brother Changshou the good news, so I didn't have time to change it."

"That's it..."

Xu Changshou nodded. It was obvious that the spiritual energy in Li Linger's body was still unstable at this moment. It was obvious that she had just broken through not long ago.

"Time flies so fast. Ling'er has even formed a pill." Xu Changshou sighed slightly.

Looking back to the time when I went to Huosang Country to pick up Li Linger, she was still a nine-year-old girl.

In the blink of an eye, so many years passed, and this girl finally surpassed me and formed a pill first.

With Li Linger's talent, if nothing unexpected happens, he probably won't have the chance to catch up with her in this lifetime.

Li Ling'er asked with concern, "Brother Changshou, when are you going to form your elixir?"

"It's almost time. I'm preparing to go into seclusion these few days." Xu Changshou said with a smile.

In the past, when Li Ling'er was young, he was afraid that one day Li Ling'er's cultivation would surpass his. When Li Ling'er really surpassed him, Xu Changshou calmed down instead.

With Li Ling'er's talent, it was inevitable that she would surpass him. If that was the case, why should he be so obsessed? What was wrong with accepting it calmly?

Accept your mediocrity calmly.

Accept being surpassed by others.

Accept the injustice of this world calmly.

"Brother Changshou, come on, you can do it. I'll wait for you on the way to forming a pill."

Li Linger raised her little face and looked at Xu Changshou seriously.

It can be seen that she really hopes that Xu Changshou can form a pill.

Her mentality at this time was comparable to Li Linhao's.

Before she reached Dan-formation stage, she went to Huosang Country. Her father, the emperor, the queen, her brothers and sisters had all died of old age.

Her grandfather Li Daitu didn't have many years left to live, and the Huosang Kingdom no longer had much to do with her.

At this moment, in Li Linger's heart, Xu Changshou was the only relative left in the world.

If Brother Changshou fails to form the elixir, she will have no relatives.

Xu Changshou smiled gently, stroked Li Linger's hair, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely form a pill, just wait."

"Ok!"

Li Linger smiled happily after receiving Xu Changshou's affirmation.

……

In the next few days, Xu Changshou did not rush to go into seclusion. It happened that Li Linger broke through the golden elixir. During these days, he took the opportunity to ask Li Linger for some experience in forming the golden elixir.

"Brother Changshou, something big happened at Hehuan Sect?"

"what's up?"

"A Jindan cultivator died."
