The Tai Xu Sect is vast!
It has about ten mountain peaks!
From front to back, from left to right, it spans nearly a hundred miles.
The Tai Xu Sect is only a hundred miles, but the Old Ancestor's Divine Thought covers three hundred miles.
Just thinking about this concept made He Pingsheng's body tingle.
Moreover, these cultivation notes stated that a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator's Divine Thought could not only scan far, but also silently penetrate Formations, walls, and so on.
He could look at you, and you would be completely unaware.
The more He Pingsheng thought about it, the more alarmed he became: I wonder if the Old Ancestor spied on me when I used the gathering treasure basin to strengthen items before.
Forget it!
Regardless of whether the Old Ancestor spied on me before, in the future, I will absolutely not use the gathering treasure basin to strengthen any item.
Unless the Old Ancestor passes away.
Besides...
How can I escape?
At the current speed of sword flight, can I travel two thousand miles in an hour?
Three thousand miles?
He Pingsheng didn't know the exact distance.
But in any case, to leave the Tai Xu Sect, he would have to fly on his sword for at least a very long time.
This amount of time would be enough for the Old Ancestor to crush him to death ten times over.
The cultivation notes stated that after a Cultivator reaches the Nascent Soul Stage, their Spiritual Root can evolve into a Dao Root, connecting with heaven and earth, and comprehending the power of rules.
They can instantly teleport ten thousand zhang with a single thought.
You fly for half a day, and they catch up to you with a single thought.
How to run?
Disguise?
He Pingsheng did have a strengthened Disguise Talisman.
However, whether this thing could fool even a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, let alone a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, was still unknown.
"If only I had an Invisibility Talisman!"
He Pingsheng yearned for it, and then a flash of inspiration struck him.
He first took out the huge gourd and poured out two portions of Golden Bee Holy Nectar, not much, just two drops each.
This was to repay Xu Kunlun and Zhao Ling'er for their tireless and dangerous efforts in finding the chijing ginseng for him.
With a whoosh, he flew out from Yu Long Peak, where the Tai Xu Divine Hall was located, and after a dozen breaths, he landed on Xiuzhu Peak.
"Thank you, Junior Brother!"
"Thank you, Junior Brother!"
The two were overjoyed after receiving the items.
"I have good news for you!" Zhao Ling'er said with a smile: "Tian Xiaoqing has advanced to the Foundation Establishment Stage!"
"Now, we are all Foundation Establishment Cultivators!"
"Old Ninth, when are you planning to Breakthrough?"
He Pingsheng thought for a moment and said, "Soon!"
"Senior Sister, I have a favor to ask you!" He pleaded, looking at Zhao Ling'er.
Zhao Ling'er smiled: "Given our relationship, there's no need to talk about favors. Tell me, Junior Brother, what is it?"
"Hmm!" He Pingsheng thought for a moment and said, "You know, I've been grounded by the Grandmaster and can't leave this Tai Xu Sect!"
"So... can you make a trip to Tianfu Mountain for me?"
"Haha..." Zhao Ling'er chuckled, revealing two rows of pearly white teeth, and teased, "So little Junior Brother misses his wife... Hahahaha... Have you grown up?"
As she spoke, her gaze slowly moved down from He Pingsheng's face.
He Pingsheng said with an awkward expression, "Senior Sister, don't be like that... I have something important!"
"Got it, something important!" Zhao Ling'er said, "What is it? Tell me!"
He Pingsheng said, "After you arrive at Tianfu Mountain and meet Senior Sister Qiao, tell her that I've been grounded by the Grandmaster, and then... ask her if she has any Talismans that can make one invisible or conceal one's aura!"
"Of course, the higher the grade, the better!"
"Ask her to find a way to get one for me first!"
"I'll thank her later!"
Zhao Ling'er said, "Is that all?"
He Pingsheng nodded: "That's all!"
"Alright!" Zhao Ling'er said, "I know, it needs to be kept a secret, right?"
Zhao Ling'er ran an errand for He Pingsheng.
The result was disappointing!
None!
Qiao Huizhu said: There is a Third Grade Baiyin Talisman that can conceal one's aura after use, and even Golden Core Stage Cultivators cannot detect anything amiss!
However, the key is that this Talisman can only be drawn by Golden Core Stage Cultivators.
That's not the main point; the main point is that this Talisman requires a very special Heaven And Earth Treasure, and this Heaven And Earth Treasure cannot be obtained in a short time.
She said she would diligently collect it, and once it was successfully drawn, she would send it immediately!
He Pingsheng breathed a sigh of relief.
The good news is: there's hope.
If it can deceive Golden Core Stage Cultivators, then if I strengthen it, it should be able to deceive Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators, right!
The bad news is: I don't know how long I'll have to wait!
Forget it!
Let's Breakthrough first!
Being anxious all the time isn't going to help.
He Pingsheng took out the chijing ginseng.
He didn't strengthen it; he just washed it and swallowed it.
Streams of vigorous Qi rushed from his lower abdomen into his Dantian, and were then guided by his Cultivation Technique, flowing from his Dantian into his Meridians to circulate.
As the Qi circulated wildly within his Meridians, this boundless Qi transformed into a mighty force, like rivers returning to the sea, crashing down.
A certain invisible and intangible barrier within He Pingsheng's body was opened.
Qi Refining Stage Twelfth Level, achieved!
Qi Refining Stage Twelfth Level was reached!
Next was the Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
It was very simple; He Pingsheng had top-grade Foundation Establishment Pills.
These two top-grade Foundation Establishment Pills were strengthened before he became a Disciple of the Tai Xu Sect.
However, he didn't dare to take them out and consume them.
No rush!
He would absolutely not use these two Medicinal Pills unless it was absolutely necessary.
He should Cultivate other things first.
The first thing was to bring up the other four Dantians.
The Old thing already knew about this, so there was no need to hide it.
Besides that, he also needed to Spirit Refining and Body Refining!
So, for He Pingsheng, Foundation Establishment was not as urgent anymore.
Time passed slowly, and the Taixu Old Ancestor also made no moves.
He Pingsheng usually hid in the Tai Xu Side Hall to Cultivate, and every three to five days, he would go to the Tai Xu Divine Hall once to listen to teachings and comprehend Formations.
About a year passed like this!
He Pingsheng was then able to create First Grade Formation Plates.
"Your Comprehension Ability is good!" The Taixu Old Ancestor said, "Being able to create First Grade Formations in a year is much better than I was back then!"
He Pingsheng quickly flattered him: "It's all thanks to your excellent guidance, Master!"
"Don't flatter me... Let's go, someone else is here!" He pointed to the Tai Xu Divine Hall ahead.
The two entered the main hall from the Lingzhi Garden.
The Formations in front of the main hall were opened one by one.
A familiar figure walked in.
He Pingsheng had seen this person before; it was the Ancestral Master, Golden Core Xuanyang, who had led them to the Secret Realm for the trial.
"Greetings, Master!" Xuanyang bowed to the Old Ancestor.
The Old Ancestor nodded and said, "What do you want today?"
Over this past year, almost all of the Old Ancestor's Disciples had come, either asking for a Magic Treasure, a Cultivation Technique, or some Spirit Stones.
Everyone thought the Ancestral Master wouldn't live much longer, and each wanted to claim more.
However, the Grand Elder Wuwei hadn't come back since that time.
"Haha..." Xuanyang chuckled and said, "This Disciple wants to ask little Junior Brother for something."
"Oh?" Taixu said, "What do you want?"
Xuanyang looked at He Pingsheng: "Little Junior Brother... Can you let me Cultivate your Spirit Refining Cultivation Technique? I... cough cough cough... I also want to strengthen my Divine Thought!"
He Pingsheng was surprised: Is he asking for scriptures from me now?
