"I'm not worried about that." Zhu Yao sighed. "I'm worried about the matter of you using the Foundation Pellet. I've heard from my master that cultivating into a deity is something that goes against the heavens in the first place. Using medicine to raise one's cultivation level is only temporary, and cannot be considered as one's own ability. But compared to relying on one's own strength, relying on oneself was always more reliable. Master himself has never used medicinal pills to raise his cultivation base. "
Wang Xuzhi fell silent. He understood this principle. All pills had pill toxins. Although it wasn't obvious in the early stages, it would encounter bottlenecks in the later stages of cultivation. It was just that in comparison, everyone was used to relying on the assistance of medicinal pills to increase the success rate of Foundation Building, so he didn't think about this aspect.
"Big sis Zhu Yao is right. I have to rely on my own abilities to build my Foundation."
"You are worth teaching!" Zhu Yao satisfyingly patted on his shoulders. A spoiled brat had become a caring little cotton-padded jacket or something. She couldn't feel any better. "Of course, if you really can't hold on, you still have to use medicinal pills when you need to. After all, only when you're alive will there be hope."
"En, Xuzhi understands."
So obedient, so considerate, I really didn't dote on him for nothing.
"Oh right, what's big sis Zhu Yao's current cultivation level?"
The cotton-padded jacket fell to the ground.
Zhu Yao held onto her glass heart, and silently turned her face away. Did he have to add another stab like that?
Seeing that her expression was a little ugly, Wang Xuzhi muttered. "I couldn't see through big sis Zhu Yao's cultivation, so I thought that your cultivation was above mine. Could it be …" His expression instantly turned a little flustered, and he immediately began to salvage the situation. "Big sis Zhu Yao, I … I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't know that you had yet to take in spiritual energy into your body … Don't be angry. If I knew that you don't have any cultivation, I wouldn't have mentioned it in front of you. Don't worry, guiding Qi into the body is actually very simple, I learned it in one night. I … "
Zhu Yao simply felt several knives stabbing straight into her chest. He couldn't help but cover the mouth of the person who was eager to explain. He gritted his teeth and said, "Can we not stab him?"
This little rascal is purposely trying to stop me! Don't think that I won't dare to beat you up now that you've grown up.

Deep in the night, in order to not be angered to death by this seemingly innocent little brat, Zhu Yao nimbly kicked him out of Jade Forest Mountain.
Wang Xuzhi rubbed her butt that had been kicked, waved her hand, and shouted, "You must come and watch my competition!" Only then did she reluctantly fly back, chased by a mountain full of red-crowned cranes.
What competition was there to watch? She had to be able to leave as well. If it wasn't for the Sect Grand Competition and his master going out to reinforce the formation, that little bastard Wang Xuzhi might not have been able to enter. Sigh, as expected, a little bastard is a little bastard. No matter how pure he looks, he can't change his nature of being a scammer. Zhu Yao decided to not reply to his letters for three months.
Recalling that brat's cultivation, and then thinking about her own, Zhu Yao sighed. She walked around the courtyard and sat cross-legged on the grass in the courtyard, sensing the spiritual aura that she hadn't felt for the past five years.
The night of Jade Forest Mountain was filled with silence. Probably because her master had yet to return, it was even quieter. Zhu Yao took a deep breath, and for a moment, her mind was completely blank.
She faintly felt something warm surrounding her. With a thought, she instantly saw countless specks of light revolving around her surroundings. What were these specks of light? She clearly did not open her eyes, yet, she could clearly sense them. Could this be spiritual aura?
Zhu Yao was instantly excited. Five years. After waiting for five years, she finally sensed spiritual aura. Some of the specks of light were scattered around, while some of them formed into clusters, dancing in the air. As though they were alive, some of them even mischievously approached her, and lightly brushed past her face, as though they were trying to express their affection. The specks of light came in various colours, and among them, there was a type of spiritual aura that looked like a silver tail, which made her feel extremely close to it. It should be lightning spiritual aura.
Zhu Yao suppressed the excitement in the depths of her heart, and recalled the method of circulating spiritual aura that her master had told her. She used her heart to sense those silver specks of light, and wholeheartedly wanted them to enter her body. Just as this thought flashed through her mind, the specks of light seemed to have received some sort of guidance, as they leaped and flew towards her.
Before Zhu Yao could even feel happy, she realized that she was like a bottle whose cap had been pulled open. The lightning spiritual aura was rushing into her body, and she was basically unable to control it at all. In just a few seconds, it had already filled all the meridians in her body. However, the spiritual aura still continued to drill into her body.
Her meridians were swollen, and the pain spread from the top of her head to the tip of her toes. Immediately after, she seemed to hear a 'pu' sound in her mind, as though something was shattering. The spiritual aura that was obstructed instantly became smooth, and continued to flow in endlessly. Then, it continued to be filled up, and she continued to break through. This cycle repeated. Every single time, she would experience that pain, and it would become even more intense.
What Zhu Yao did not know, was that her cultivation was madly rising at an astonishing speed as well. First level of Essence, second level of Essence, third level of Essence …
Suddenly, an immense pain descended. It was an indescribable pain, and she felt as though her body was being forcefully torn apart, as though she was going to be torn into pieces. From the tip of her toes to her hair, not a single part of her body did not feel pain. It was as though something was about to explode out of her body. Zhu Yao fell onto the ground, and no matter what she did, she was unable to get rid of that pain. Blood was already seeping out from her eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. Her blood vessels were about to burst, and her entire body was already dyed red with blood. Zhu Yao felt as though she was going to die in the next moment.
Yu Yan, who was currently reinforcing the formation with the Sect Master on the surface of the sea below Ancient Hill Sect, had a change in expression. Turning around, he headed towards Jade Forest Mountain.
"Ancestral-martial uncle!" Because he suddenly retracted his hand, the formation was on the verge of collapsing. Zi Mo had no choice but to bite the bullet and fill in the gaps. When he turned around, he could no longer find his figure. Ancestral-martial uncle, you can't trick a junior like this. The Great Mountain Barrier Formation, he was not able to hold on.
With his fastest speed, Yu Yan returned to Jade Forest Mountain. At that moment, he felt the imprint he left on his disciple's forehead, was instantly activated. That was a sensing mystic art that only a master would have for his personal succeeding disciple, and it would only be activated in moments of life and death. His disciple was clearly in Jade Forest Mountain, just what was it that could threaten her life?
Before even reaching the mountain peak, he had already felt the lightning spiritual energy rampaging. He was a Lightning Spirit Vein holder as well, so he was rather familiar with this type of spiritual energy. However, in this current situation, it was as though the lightning spiritual energy in the sky and earth were being attracted by something, as they surged towards the peak of Jade Forest Mountain. Even if it was the strongest Spirit Gathering Formation in the world, it was impossible for it to attract so much lightning spiritual energy.
Yu Yan flew closer to take a look, only to realize that at the center of the spiritual energy, was his own disciple. Her entire body was covered in blood, and she was unconscious on the ground. The surrounding lightning spiritual energy was continuously surging into her body, and if this were to continue, her body would definitely explode and die.
