Chapter 113 It's a long story, let's go to my room and tell you slowly
In the late stage of Qi Condensation, it takes three years to build the foundation.
In Huang Xiuchun's eyes, this was completely impossible.
According to Junior Sister Tang, when she left, her friend was already in the late Qi Condensation stage, but she had just entered the late Qi Condensation stage.
It is almost a fantasy for someone who has just entered the late stage of Qi Condensation to build a foundation within three years.
Junior Sister Tang was able to build her foundation because of the special nature of their Xiyue Sect.
But even if the sect had a special method of foundation building, and Junior Sister Tang had this opportunity, she still needed a top-grade foundation building pill to break through.
As for the current city, it belongs to Baicheng District.
Baicheng District doesn't even have a Nascent Soul expert, it doesn't have the foundation.
What's more, Junior Sister Tang's friend is a casual cultivator with no background or origin. I'm afraid she can't even gather all the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill, let alone the Foundation Establishment Pill.
In fact, the uncle allowed Junior Sister Tang to come out, and at Junior Sister Tang's request, he even gave her a foundation-building pill, just to let Junior Sister Tang cut off this relationship.
They are all women, so Huang Xiuchun knew that the friend that Junior Sister Tang was talking about was of the opposite sex, and that Junior Sister Tang had a great liking for him.
However, the path to cultivating immortals is long, and there are many people who cultivate together, but most of them have similar talents and realms.
My junior sister's future is destined to start from the Golden Elixir stage, but what kind of cultivation genius can the Liang Dynasty produce?
In her opinion, a big part of the reason why Junior Sister Tang was obsessed with this man was because of the cultivation talent he had shown in the Liang Dynasty.
But when Junior Sister sees the man of her dreams working hard to build his foundation in Wenjin City, her admiration for him will be reduced by half.
When the time comes, I will give you the Foundation Establishment Pill, and this relationship will be over.
"That's right, Chu Ning probably hasn't established his foundation yet."
Tang Ruowei didn't know what Huang Xiuchun was thinking. She was still immersed in the joy that Chu Ning had not established his foundation and she could finally take revenge.
Liu Yi sighed slightly in her heart. She saw the clue from Senior Sister Huang's expression. Although this was a bit cruel to Junior Sister Tang, it was correct.
The three of them strolled leisurely in the garden, but since they were all cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, it actually only took them a cup of tea to cover the ten-mile distance.
The inner city of Wenjin City is guarded by a formation. If outside cultivators want to enter, they need to pay a sum of spirit stones.
However, Tang Ruowei and the other two did not pay the spirit stones. The outer sect elder of Wenjin Sect, who was in charge of guarding the entrance, smiled and gave them a token to enter the city.
"Elder Wang, are you just going to let them in like this?"
When Tang Ruowei and the other two entered the inner city and could no longer be seen, an outer disciple nearby asked with some confusion.
In the past, even if there were strong people in the Foundation Establishment Stage, Elder Wang would still collect spirit stones, but his attitude would be much better than when facing Qi Condensation cultivators.
"What do you know? Today, I will teach you something. If you see a female cultivator in this world of immortal cultivation, you should avoid provoking her if you can."
"Why?"
"Several female cultivators are traveling together, which means that these people are most likely from the same sect. In the world of immortal cultivation, the strength of a sect dominated by female cultivators is usually unfathomable."
Elder Wang narrowed his eyes. The entrance fee for outsiders was ten spirit stones, which was nothing for a Foundation Establishment cultivator. In fact, Wen Jin Sect did not expect to make money from Foundation Establishment cultivators.
As an outer sect elder, he still has the authority to let a few people in.
After entering the inner city and looking at the bustling market, Tang Ruowei was very excited. After she went to Xiyue Sect, she also went to the market in the city at the foot of the mountain, but she felt that it was not as lively as here.
Faced with the curious Tang Ruowei, the monks passing by chose to stay away from her respectfully, not even daring to look at her.
"These people are different from the monks in our market."
Tang Ruowei noticed the difference. When she was in the city at the foot of the Xiyue Sect mountain, she also followed her senior sister around and even encountered some people who tried to strike up a conversation with her. There were also many male cultivators who stared at her.
“Nature is different.”
Huang Xiuchun, as a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, has been to many places and explained: "Most of the cultivators in the Hundred Cities area are independent cultivators. The so-called ancestors of the sects and families were also independent cultivators hundreds of years ago."
"Unaffiliated cultivators are different from cultivators like us who come from sects. Unaffiliated cultivators are cautious by nature and don't want to cause trouble for no reason. Besides, you were a cultivator in the late Qi Condensation stage, and now you have reached the Foundation Establishment stage. Naturally, these people dare not look at you any more."
Most of the monks in the sects look down on independent cultivators and think that they are timid, but they also admit that if there is an independent cultivator who can really stand out and reach the Golden Core Realm, he is generally the best in the same realm.
The independent cultivators who are able to cultivate to the Golden Core stage have extremely rich combat experience.
"What Senior Sister said makes sense. It seems that I am still lucky to have met Master and the sect."
Tang Ruowei nodded, agreeing with what Huang Xiuchun said.
"So you, Junior Sister, have to be mentally prepared. Your friend may have a distinguished family background and be considered a genius in the Liang Dynasty, but here he is probably just one of the many casual cultivators."
"Senior Sister Huang, I don't quite agree with what you said. Since she was able to send a letter of gratitude, her friend should be doing pretty well." Liu Yi interjected.
Tang Ruowei just smiled and didn't respond.
Perhaps those friends from those days, like Zhao Qin and the fellow disciples of the Yinyue Sect later on, might suffer a blow, but she believed that Chu Ning would not.
Because Chu Ning never had a prominent family background.
This guy did everything to practice martial arts, and even tricked Zhang Song, He Jin and others into giving him money.
In this kind of environment in Wenjincheng, it would probably be like a fish in water for Chu Ning.
"Here we are. This is the store."
Tang Ruowei stopped in front of a shop. Chu Ning said in the letter that he was running a herbal medicine shop in Wenjincheng Market.
The name of the store is: Qin's Pharmacy.
Although she didn't know why the shop run by Chu Ning was called Qin's Pharmacy, she was sure that she had made the right choice.
Because there is a couplet pasted on both sides of the shop door.
couplet.
Only Chu Ning would do that.
She had also seen couplets at Chu Ning's house before. This guy said that this was a symbol of status.
Although she didn't understand it, she wrote down the two words "couplet".
"Two senior sisters, please wait for me at the door."
Tang Ruowei had a sly smile in her eyes. After entering the store, she glanced around the lobby and suddenly shouted, "Ask your shopkeeper to come out. The herbs I bought from you last time were of inferior quality."
make trouble!
Then Chu Ning hurried over and beat him up.
Tang Ruowei had already thought of the plot, but to her surprise, the two shop assistants in the store looked very calm.
Can't you see that you are a strong person in the Foundation Establishment Stage?
Tang Ruowei released her coercive aura, and the complexions of the two shop assistants indeed changed, but they only turned pale. This was because they could not withstand the coercive aura, not because of fear.
"Senior, it is impossible for the medicinal materials in our store to be of inferior quality. Even if there are, we would have informed you in advance. Did you remember it wrongly?"
"Did I remember it wrongly?"
"Well, maybe the senior has been to too many pharmacies to buy herbs, so he might have mixed it up."
Tang Ruowei was a little confused, no...
What does it matter if I remember it wrong? Even if I remember it wrong?
How dare you, a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Condensation, question me, a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage?
According to what Chu Ning often says, the normal plot is not like this.
Normally, shouldn't he apologize panickily and then notify the shopkeeper to come and handle it?
Why are you, a shop assistant, trying to steal the show?
"I'm sure I bought the herbs in your store. Hurry up and call your boss out, or I'll smash your store."
"Senior, calm down. I...I will notify our shopkeeper right away."
The male clerk hurriedly ran out of the store. Tang Ruowei knew that Chu Ning was not in the store, so she shouted to the outside of the door, "Two senior sisters, come in."
Huang Xiuchun and Liu Yi entered the store, both with smiles on their faces. Junior Sister Tang was going to act, so they could just watch from the side.
Huang Xiuchun glanced at the medicinal herbs in the shop. They were all the herbs needed to refine elixirs for cultivators in the Qi Condensation Stage. They were not precious things, but as Junior Sister Liu said, having such a shop in the Qi Condensation Stage meant that one had some financial resources.
In order to cooperate with Junior Sister Tang, Huang Xiuchun spread out her spiritual sense to block the store. Unless someone's spiritual sense was stronger than hers, it would be impossible to sense the situation inside the store with her spiritual sense.
The only female clerk left in the store opened her eyes wide. She had thought that there was only one senior in the Foundation Establishment Stage, but she did not expect that there were three.
It was the first time for her to receive a foundation-building cultivator, but she didn't expect that he was here to cause trouble.
Thinking of her own shopkeeper's background, the female cultivator hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Seniors, please leave. Our shopkeeper has an extraordinary background."
Everyone in the entire market knows that this medicine shop belongs to Senior Chu.
Wen Jincheng's famous genius alchemist, Wen Jinzong's only direct disciple of the fifth elder.
Even if these three are foundation-building cultivators, they cannot afford to offend their own shopkeeper.
It is said that the shopkeeper has a nickname, Chu Daqi.
This nickname seems to have come from Miaoyin Pavilion.
It was said that the shopkeeper had spent an entire night in Miaoyin Pavilion teaching the ladies how to make elixirs, and he pointed at the elixirs furnace and said it was so big and heavy that he got this nickname.
Who would believe that?
Anyway, as a female cultivator she didn't believe that her boss must be a lustful person.
These three female seniors, especially the one in the red skirt, are so beautiful that the shopkeeper will definitely not let them go.
"Your boss has an unusual background. Tell me about it. I want to see how it's unusual!"
Tang Ruowei snorted coldly, and before the clerk could reply, a voice came from the door.
"Who dares to cause trouble in the market?"
The voice was deep and powerful, and he was obviously also a strong person in the foundation building stage.
Two middle-aged men walked in the Foundation Establishment stage, followed by several disciples in the late Qi Condensation stage.
This is the outer sect elder of the Wenjin Sect who is responsible for maintaining order in the market town.
The clerk just ran out to look for them.
When the two heard that someone was causing trouble in Junior Brother Chu's shop, their first reaction was not anger but joy.
Although they also attended Junior Brother Chu's foundation-building banquet, and Junior Brother Chu even specifically asked their names at the banquet, Junior Brother Chu has had no contact with them since then.
Junior Brother Chu has entered the foundation-building stage, so he can refine elixirs that can be used in the foundation-building stage. The two were worried that they would not have the chance to get in touch with Junior Brother Chu.
However, the very next day after Junior Brother Chu's foundation-building banquet, there were already rumors outside that there were dozens of foundation-building cultivators looking for Junior Brother Chu to make pills. Junior Brother Chu was a humble person and accepted everyone, resulting in the alchemy schedule being scheduled for ten years later.
After all, Junior Brother Chu can't keep refining pills all the time, he has to practice. The pills for the Foundation Establishment Stage are not as simple as the pills for the Qi Condensation Stage. It takes at least a month to make a furnace of pills.
This rumor made them extremely regretful, thinking back to the time at the Foundation Establishment Banquet, Junior Brother Chu patted his chest and said that if they needed to refine any elixir, they could come to him as long as they prepared the materials.
At that time, I thought it was just a polite remark from Junior Brother Chu, but I didn't expect that Junior Brother Chu was so sincere.
It was their own fault for being slow to react. Now they were too embarrassed to go find Junior Brother Chu, but they didn't expect that someone would send them a pillow just when they felt sleepy, and someone even dared to cause trouble in Junior Brother Chu's shop.
Although they knew that the troublemakers were also cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, this was a market town, right at the foot of the Wenjin Sect. Not to mention cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, even Jindan cultivators would have to consider whether they could afford to offend the Wenjin Sect.
When they walked in and saw Tang Ruowei, they were stunned at first. There were only a few female cultivators in the foundation-building stage in the entire Wenjin City, but this one was so beautiful, but they had never seen one before.
Then he glanced at Huang Xiuchun and Liu Yi who were sitting at the table in the store, and their hearts skipped a beat.
What a tough guy.
Although those two did not reveal their strength, they were at least in the middle stage of foundation building.
"Ahem, we two are here to ask the outer sect elders of our sect to be responsible for maintaining order in the market town. Fighting and disturbances are not allowed in the market town."
It is definitely impossible to just turn around and leave. Not to mention that doing so will offend Junior Brother Chu, the sect will not be able to make it worse. However, the tone will have to be much gentler.
The three female foundation-building cultivators must have certain backgrounds.
When Tang Ruowei saw the two people coming in, her beautiful eyes were thoughtful. She did not doubt Chu Ning's current identity, but she felt that Chu Ning's ability to form cliques had improved.
When Chu Ning was a constable, he was doing very well in the police station. In his words, if you want to get involved in the police station, you have to have good relations with those who are in charge of law enforcement.
These two people are the ones Chu Ning mentioned who are in charge of public security.
"I bought low-quality medicinal materials here, so I came to the shopkeeper to ask for an explanation. It doesn't count as making trouble, does it?"
Tang Ruowei spoke lightly. She wanted to see how good the relationship between Chu Ning and her was.
Faced with a powerful foundation-building master causing trouble for them, would these two people still stand on his side?
"Hahaha!"
What Tang Ruowei didn't expect was that as soon as she finished speaking, one of the foundation-building cultivators opposite her suddenly laughed.
"I'm afraid you are here to cause trouble on purpose. No matter which cultivator from the market you bring over, they won't believe what you say."
So powerful?
Tang Ruowei was a little frightened. She was surprised at how Chu Ning had done it and how he could have gotten two foundation-building cultivators to protect him so strongly.
They just randomly asked a cultivator and no one would believe what she said. How could these cultivators guarantee that Chu Ning would not pass off inferior products as good ones?
This was obviously a lie to her.
"If fellow Daoist continues to act unreasonably, I ask that the sect will just follow the rules."
If it were the normal early stage of foundation building, the two would have taken action long ago, but now they are unsure and dare not act rashly.
Tang Ruowei remained silent because she wasn't really there to cause trouble.
It was conceivable that Chu Ning had spent a lot of effort and cost to establish a relationship with a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage. If things continued like this, all of Chu Ning's efforts in the past few years would have been wasted.
The sneak attack failed.
"I was just joking. The owner of the medicine shop and I are old friends."
Tang Ruowei revealed her cards, but she was smart enough not to say Chu Ning's name directly, because she didn't know whether Chu Ning was asking Jin Cheng using his real name. What if this guy was using a pseudonym, wouldn't you expose him if you called him by his real name?
"I see."
The two outer sect elders of Wenjin Sect also breathed a sigh of relief. After thinking carefully, they realized that this made sense.
Junior Brother Chu's shop sells medicinal herbs for the Qi Condensation stage. Foundation Establishment cultivators will not come here to buy medicinal herbs. I'm afraid Junior Brother Chu won't come to this shop for several months.
Thinking of the exquisite appearance of the female cultivator in the red dress and the handsome appearance of Junior Brother Chu, they had a hunch that this female cultivator might have a special relationship with Junior Brother Chu.
This deliberate occurrence of trouble is a bit like a little romantic prank between young people.
Junior Brother Chu is said to be young, under fifty, and is indeed quite young among the foundation-building cultivators.
They shouldn't ruin the fun that the young people are having.
…
…
Ask Jinfeng.
"Someone is causing trouble in my shop, and is he a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage?"
When Chu Ning received the message, he was a little confused. How could a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage dare to cause trouble in his own shop?
Do you think you've lived too long?
The message was sent by two outer sect elders who were responsible for maintaining order in the market town.
"Normally, these two outer sect elders should have taken him down directly and then informed me. Could it be that the Foundation Establishment cultivator who caused the trouble has some background?"
Thinking of this, Chu Ning had an idea in mind.
For such a small matter, he did not disturb his master who was refining the elixir, but walked around Wen Jinfeng and waited until the time to go down the mountain.
From just one person, he became a group of people.
A group of foundation-building monks, including four in the late foundation-building stage, marched towards the market town in a mighty force.
With so many people around, even cultivators in the late foundation building stage don’t have to be afraid.
He already has an inherent advantage of being invincible.
Normally, if a foundation-building cultivator wanted to reach the market town, they could just fly through the air and arrive there quickly. However, Chu Ning did not have a flying magic device, so it was difficult for other foundation-building cultivators to fly through the air as well.
A group of people walked with murderous intent, and after entering the market town, the monks in the market town gave way to them.
What big deal is going on?
There are not many foundation-building cultivators in the market town. In the past, even if there were some who came to the market town, they would fly in the air and land directly at their destination. There was no way they would walk in such a grand procession.
"This scene happened to me fifty years ago when I was still in the Mortal Realm. I was in a gang at that time and I would often see scenes like this."
An old man in the late Qi Condensation stage had a look of reminiscence on his face when he saw this scene.
Recalling the past, I cut down a street crazily.
At the entrance of Qin's pharmacy, two outer sect elders noticed the group approaching not far away and their eyes widened. In the shop, Huang Xiuchun's expression became serious, and he flashed and stood behind Tang Ruowei.
With her strength, she had already sensed that there were many Foundation Establishment cultivators approaching here outside, and several of them had spiritual energy as dense as hers.
"Junior Sister Tang..."
Huang Xiuchun was really about to remind his junior sister to be careful when a voice came from the door.
"Who dares to cause trouble in my shop? Come out now!"
Chu Ning stood at the door, but not at the front row. Instead, he stood between two old men in the late foundation building stage.
When he was still a hundred meters away from the store, he spread out his spiritual sense, but was blocked by another spiritual sense.
With his spiritual sense now being no weaker than that of a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, and being able to prevent his spiritual sense from entering, the foundation building cultivator in the shop must at least have been in the middle stage of foundation building for a long time, or possibly even in the late stage.
No wonder the two outer sect elders didn’t dare to take action as they were not as strong as the other party.
The two outer sect elders looked at Junior Brother Chu and his group, who were full of murderous intent, with strange expressions on their faces. Junior Brother Chu must have misunderstood.
However, when they saw the many foundation-building cultivators following Junior Brother Chu, they were also greatly shocked.
As expected of Junior Brother Chu, he has such good relationships with people. I’m afraid all the Foundation Establishment Stage members of the entire Wenjin Sect, except those in seclusion or out of the city, are here.
Chu Ning stared at the entrance of the shop, but in his mind he was thinking, do he have any enemies in the middle or late stage of foundation building?
According to the master, the only two enemies, Qiong Liangyou and Bao Huining, were crushed to death by a passing Jindan expert not long after they left the city.
There are no enemies anymore.
While he was pondering in the group, a figure in a red dress slowly walked out and looked at him with a faint smile.
Eyes met.
The smile on Tang Ruowei's pretty face disappeared. She looked at the many foundation-building cultivators standing at the door in some disbelief, and also saw Chu Ning in the crowd.
Chu Ning also saw Tang Ruowei, and all his doubts were instantly resolved.
This girl has established a foundation.
So, the one causing trouble was Tang Ruowei.
The foundation-building cultivators present were all shrewd people. When they saw Chu Ning's expression and Tang Ruowei's face, they almost guessed what was going on.
"Junior Brother Chu, since this is a misunderstanding, we will take our leave now."
"Haha, young man, I understand."
These foundation-building cultivators found excuses to leave, but they were also thinking in their hearts, who is this female foundation-building cultivator?
Perhaps, we can judge Junior Brother Chu’s background from the background of this female cultivator.
However, these cultivators also knew that probing into a person's background was a taboo, and even if they were curious, they could only do it in private. Moreover, they went out of their way to befriend Junior Brother Chu, and would not do anything that would disgust Junior Brother Chu.
A quarter of an hour later.
In the backyard of the drugstore, Chu Ning looked at Tang Ruowei helplessly. In addition to helplessness, Tang Ruowei also felt a little discouraged.
"How did you build your foundation?"
Chu Ning:? What do you mean, isn’t it a good thing that I have built my foundation? “If you have built your foundation, then I can’t beat you.”
Hearing Tang Ruowei's words, the corner of Chu Ning's mouth twitched. After so many years, this girl still hasn't given up.
"It's okay. You and I are both in the early stages of foundation building now. We can fight again."
"Hmph." Tang Ruowei pouted and said, "I don't believe you. If you were in the late stage of Qi Condensation, I would still fight with you. But I definitely won't fight with you in the Foundation Establishment stage."
She knew Chu Ning too well. Although she was also in the early stage of foundation building, she was definitely no match for Chu Ning.
Because I am not as despicable as Chu Ning.
"By the way, how did you manage to build your foundation so quickly?"
Tang Ruowei was very curious. She was able to build a foundation so quickly, which could be said to have broken the sect's record. How did Chu Ning do it? "This is a long story. Come... to my room and I'll tell you slowly."
"Go to hell!"
…
…
Compared to the charming atmosphere in the backyard at the moment, in the lobby of the pharmacy, the expressions of Huang Xiuchun and Liu Yi were completely different.
Until now, both of them have not recovered from the shock.
Is this friend of Junior Sister Tang really a low-level casual cultivator? Since when did casual cultivators go out and call on friends, and have a group of foundation-building cultivators accompany them.
When did foundation-building cultivators become so cheap that they can be described as a group?
If they were just low-level casual cultivators, what would they be? Especially Huang Xiuchun, even though he had practiced for a hundred years, he couldn't help but blush when he thought about what he had said to Junior Sister Tang.
What a slap in the face.
