Xu Fan looked at Wang Yulun’s performance with the Spirit Power Armor on and nodded satisfactorily.
The power had reached the expected level, and the next step was gradual enhancement.
After operating in the sky for a while, Wang Yulun returned to Xu Fan’s side.
“Brother Xu, this artifact is amazing. Now, even if I encounter a peak
Foundation Establishment demonic beast, I won’t be afraid,” Wang Yulun said excitedly.
“Not bad, this Spirit Power Armor is only the initial version. After you all advance to Foundation Establishment, I will refine a similar Treasure Artifact for you.”
“How about it, you don’t regret giving me that piece of Soul Iron, right?” Xu Fan said with a smile. He didn’t like owing people favors.
“No regrets, no regrets. This set of Treasure Artifacts is so valuable that I’m afraid Brother Xu is at a loss.’
“That’s right, Brother Xu, if you need any materials for Treasure Artifacts, just let us know, and we’ll do our best to find them,” Murong Qian’er said as she looked at her own set of Spirit Power Armor.
Now she felt that Xu Fan’s talent in Artifact Refining was even stronger than his combat talent.
“Fine, I’ll give you a list later, and you’ll need to collect some Soul Beads of demonic beasts yourselves.”
“Don’t worry, you can start looking after advancing to Foundation Establishment,” Xu Fan said, thinking about how he should refine his own Spirit Power Armor.
“Thank you, Brother Xu.”
“We’re friends; there’s no need for formalities,” Xu Fan waved his hand and said.
In the afternoon, Xu Fan watched the practicing siblings in the courtyard.
“Sometimes, practicing techniques requires using your brain.”
“After failing once, stop and think about why you failed.”
“Casting techniques is the most basic means for cultivators, and it’s also the most crucial point in later battles.”
Instead of pointing out the mistakes in the siblings’ technique casting, Xu Fan let them slowly comprehend it themselves.
Xu Gang, who had failed to cast techniques several times and had a little confusion in his spiritual power, looked at Xu Fan with a bit of shame and said, “Master, what should I do if my brain doesn’t work well?”
“You’ve stumped me there,” Xu Fan was taken aback.
At this moment, a water cloud made of spiritual power appeared in the sky above the courtyard, and a fine rain started to fall inside.
This was the Small Spirit Rain Technique cast by Xu Yuexian.
“Master, I succeeded,” Xu Yuexian said happily, but soon put away her pleased expression because her brother had not succeeded yet.
“Not bad, you have some talent in techniques,” Xu Fan praised and gave his female disciple a medium-high rating.
Xu Gang, who was originally ashamed, lowered his head almost to the ground.
“Xu Gang, don’t be discouraged. You asked me earlier what to do if your brain doesn’t work well.”
“Now let me tell you, think clearly about what you can understand and keep the things you don’t understand in your heart.”
“When your heart can’t contain them anymore, come and ask me.”
“The road to cultivation is too long, talent and aptitude are secondary, only those with great determination can achieve immortality.” Xu Fan slowly said. In his eyes, cultivation was like a strategy game. The earlier resources were good, but the later decisive factor for victory was still strategy.
Aptitude and talent did not work, so he could only use the most stupid method. Xu Fan had patience; he could take it slow.
“I understand.”
“Master, I will definitely not let you down,” Xu Gang said firmly.
Seeing the expression of his senior disciple, Xu Fan nodded in satisfaction and thought that he couldn’t stop with the encouragement.
Time flew by, and three years passed like flowing water.
In the Outer Sect area, Xu Gang was heading back with his little sister from Taixue Peak.
“Brother, why didn’t you answer the question that young lady just asked you?” Xu Yuexian looked at Xu Gang with a puffed-up air, hoping her brother would have such a female friend.
Contemplating the new technique he learned yesterday, Xu Gang said subconsciously, “Women will only slow down my casting speed, so it’s better to have less contact.”
“Who said that!” Xu Yuexian didn’t know how to describe it, but she knew that this development was absolutely unacceptable.
“Master said it yesterday when he was discussing with Uncle Master Wang.”
“He said that Uncle Master Wang’s casting speed is much slower than before.” Xu Gang thought about it and said.
Upon hearing Xu Gang’s words, Xu Yuexian turned her head to the side to show her anger.
“I’m ignoring you now.”
In mid-air, Xu Yuexian performed hand seals, and a streamlined air shield appeared around her.
“Bang!”
With the sound of an explosion, Xu Yuexian’s figure disappeared into the horizon.
“Did I anger my little sister again?” Xu Gang wondered.
“I’d better catch up with my little sister and ask her why.”
Xu Gang scratched his head foolishly, a layer of earthy-yellow streamlined shield appeared around him, with an exhaust pipe shape behind the shield. A terrifying fire attribute energy was brewing in the exhaust pipe, ready to explode at any time.
“Boom!!”
The explosion resounded throughout the mountains, a figure even faster than before flying towards the distance.
At the foot of Little Hill, Xu Fan was watching the Cloud Flower Deer play with a two-year-old boy.
“Brother Xu, I plan to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage in one year, and I have prepared all the materials and elixirs,” said the young man beside Xu Fan.
Hearing Wang Yulun’s words, Xu Fan turned his head and asked with interest,
“Yu Lun, are you confident about achieving the First Grade Foundation Establishment?”
“The First Grade Foundation Establishment is too difficult; I’m not confident.’
Wang Yulun shook his head and said. Those who achieved the First Grade Foundation Establishment were treated as Celestial Favorites. With his current situation, he could only be ranked in the second tier.
At this moment, the Cloud Flower Deer took the little boy on an auspicious cloud and flew straight out of the Little Hill.
Wang Yulun wanted to stop them, but Xu Fan stopped him.
Then Xu Fan tapped lightly towards the position of the Cloud Flower Deer and the little boy. Spiritual power quickly gathered in the sky, and two human-shaped puppets made up of spiritual power and covered with runes appeared, quietly following the little boy.
Seeing the two spiritual puppets, Wang Yulun felt a twitch in his heart. He had tried them recently, and one of these puppets could easily destroy him, even when he was wearing spirit power armor.
“What do you still lack for achieving the First Grade Foundation
Establishment?” Xu Fan asked. In his opinion, there were no absolute things in the Cultivation World.
Hearing Xu Fan’s question, Wang Yulun sighed. “An indistinct feeling, I can’t quite describe it.”
How can I help you if you speak so mysteriously?
“By the way, when do you plan to establish your foundation, Brother Xu?”
“You’re only one realm away from me. I guess Brother Xu can achieve the First Grade Foundation Establishment. If Brother Xu is willing, it won’t be a problem to make a name across the continent.” Wang Yulun said. In the past five years, the Sect had only produced one First Grade Foundation Establishment cultivator, Ye Xiaoyao of the Ten Thousand Sword Peak.
“What’s so good about being famous? There are no substantial benefits, and the risks are high.”
Speaking of Foundation Establishment, Xu Fan thought of something. A hundred years later, when he was going to establish his foundation, he would definitely need a secluded place.
He now had a feeling that he could immediately enter the Foundation
Establishment stage without the need for Foundation Establishment Pills.
Unfortunately, this feeling seemed close, but it was actually as distant as a chasm, just like a girlfriend in VR glasses. You can only look at her..
