Chapter 41: 041 Preparation for Foundation Establishment 1

Translator: 549690339

Among the beasts to be tamed, flying beasts are much more popular than others, especially those raised from a young age, able to reach a bond with their master in harmony of heart and mind.

The reason Yu Ke’er coveted this Black-Scale Hawk beast was firstly, this Black-Scale Hawk beast had undergone mutation, making it stronger in both power and lineage.

Secondly, she practiced archery. If she could have a powerful flying beast as a mount, her strength would be greatly enhanced.

However, Su Yu wouldn’t give up the prize he had gained so easily.

The Black-Scale Hawk and the Earthfire Ape, one having incredible ground combat power and the other having exceptional sky combat power. If they worked together, they could greatly enhance Su Yu’s safety.

Of course, the prerequisite was to cultivate them.

Not only did Su Yu not give the Black-Scale Hawk beast egg to Yu Ke’er, but he also got a core material for the Foundation Establishment Pill from her as payment for the previously crafted beast-attracting powder.

Adding these together, the Su Family now possessed three types of core materials for the synthesis of the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Yu Ke’er stayed in Yunsan Market for another six months and then disappeared.

Su Yu stayed in the Pill Pavilion. In addition to his daily cultivation, he was now researching three side-jobs: alchemy, talisman writing, and puppet mastering.

In the field of puppet mastery, Su Yu made rapid progress with the inheritance obtained from the ancient Jade box.

While staying in the market, it wasn’t hard for him to collect materials for puppet beasts.

Time flew by.

Two years later.

In the backyard of the Pill Pavilion.

Su Yu invoked his spell, causing wooden vines to spring from the ground, trapping a ten-foot giant puppet beast in front of him.

Just as Su Yu was about to seize the chance to attack the puppet beast, it struggled violently.

“Boom!!!”

All the vines were shattered instantly.

The puppet beast, pitch-black and cat-like, appeared in front of Su Yu like a

ghost.

A sharp claw rested against Su Yu’s throat.

After another failed attempt, Su Yu sighed and admitted defeat.

Without using his Body Refinement Realm powers, relying only on his Foundation Establishment Realm stage six cultivation, it was absurd to think he stood a chance against a top-tier first-order puppet beast.

Its strength, comparable to the ninth stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, was entirely out of reach for someone at the sixth stage.

“Chirp chirp!”

On a large tree not far away, the Earthfire Ape, a 6-7 foot tall beast covered in red fur and already at the midterm of the first-order beast stage, was holding a

low-grade magic artifact stick and looking eager to assist its master in taking down the mysterious black machination.

Up on the roof behind, a Black-Scale Hawk beast, about four feet tall and covered in obscure black scales, was staring at the puppet beast as if looking at a ‘corpse’.

Even though it didn’t make a sound or any movement, if Su Yu gave an order, it would undoubtedly deliver a fatal blow to the puppet beast.

These two had intellect, but not enough to comprehend that this entity was a puppet beast crafted by their master, not an enemy.

“You’re just asking for trouble. Its power is so strong that even I might not be able to handle it, unless I use talisman…but against a puppet beast, a talisman will most likely be less effective,” said Su Yun, the silver-haired man in a grey robe, from under the eaves. “If I have to face it, I would prefer to trap it and run. This beast’s body is almost as tough as a mid-grade defensive magic artifact!”

Su Yu laughed it off when he heard his master’s comment.

He was actually trying to familiarize himself with powers at various cultivation stages, having only once since the start of his cultivation experienced it firsthand.

Once he understood the power levels at each cultivation stage, he felt more prepared for the future.

Su Yun was satisfied with the strength of the puppet beast, but had a hard time accepting the cost of creating it.

In the past two years, Su Yu had created thirteen puppet beasts.

From lower first-order puppet beasts to top-ranked upper first-order puppet beasts, he had spent two to three thousand low-grade spirit stones. Especially for the one at hand, the materials alone were worth almost one thousand low-grade spirit stones – a staggering price.

If it weren’t for the hefty cost, Su Yun would have liked Su Yu to create even more.

Su Yun and Su Yu chatted briefly before parting ways.

Su Yu waved his hand to put away his puppet beast, took a glance at the Earth Fire Ape and Black Scaled Hawk, and let out a sigh.

In these two years, Green Wood Year Ring Skill had successfully broken through to the sixth round of the sixth level, reaching the sixth layer of the Qi Refinement Realm. The Alligator Demon’s Hundred and Eight Techniques of Body Refinement had also advanced to the eighth layer, greatly enhancing his strength.

However, he was already thirty years old, and it had been fourteen years since he was eliminated from the selection of Yunjian Sect’s disciple.

At this rate, he was likely to establish a foundation in his fifties or sixties.

“Two or three decades… It wouldn’t need to be that long. In about eight or ten years, the Earth Fire Ape and Black Scaled Hawk might be able to be nurtured into second-order magical beasts.” Su Yu pondered, and then started to feel a headache.

Because the appetites of these two beasts were growing larger and larger, raising them was getting too much for him.

Of course.

This was primarily due to his involvement in puppet beasts.

And the resources consumed in mana cultivation and body refinement.

Practically all the Spirit Stones that Su Yu had saved up over the years had gone into these.

Usually, he had to secretly sell talismans, and even puppet beasts, to barely make ends meet.

“I must find a way of expanding. Otherwise, for future second-order puppet beasts…” Su Yu pondered. The scale of Yun Hill Market was too small. If he wanted a better cultivation environment, he’d have to consider moving elsewhere.

“Young Master, your letter.” A young maid presented a letter.

Su Yu took the letter and opened it, and immediately looked overjoyed: “Preparing for the Foundation Establishment… Excellent news!”

Several days later.

Su Zhi, Chen Sisi, and Su Qingyi three of them came to the pill pavilion. Su Zhi was not even half a month older than Su Yu, but she was also thirty years old.

But Su Zhi looked barely any different than she had years ago, still resembling a young girl.

Her cultivation had reached the ninth level of Qi Refinement Realm.

Chen Sisi was two years younger than Su Zhi. Her appearance had changed slightly, but she’d become more mature and charming. If Su Zhi was still a girl, then Chen Sisi was a young married woman of the sect, gifted with the arts of staying youthful.

Chen Sisi’s cultivation was slightly lower, currently at the eighth level in Qi Refinement Realm.

Last was Su Qingyi… His changes were quite significant. He’d put on some weight and lost an arm. The previously handsome and youthful face now had the hint of middle-age spread, and despite his attempts to conceal it, an undercurrent of gloominess was discernible.

Apparently, the injury he suffered years ago still greatly affected him.

His cultivation was now at the seventh level in Qi Refinement Realm.

After a chit-chat, Su Zhi said, “The Demon Way is rampant recently. I have selected a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refinement Realm to complete the sect mission. Coupled with the contribution value I have accumulated before, I have barely enough to exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill.”

“I hope everything goes well.”

Su Yu smiled and took out some things prepared by the family.

These included talismans, pills, and even the top-tier first-order puppet beast.

The family had supplied Spirit Stones and resources, which supported Su Zhi’s upcoming Foundation Establishment, which Su Yu naturally didn’t object to.

With the Spirit Stones and resources provided by the family, he could at least craft two top-tier first-order puppet beasts.

Not only was he not at a loss, but he was also making a profit.

After all, his actual success rate in crafting items was extremely high.

This was something only he knew.

Once Su Zhi successfully breaks through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, and with the backing of a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Yunjian Sect, on top of the support from the Fifth Elder of the Su Family, a cultivator at Foundation Establishment Realm, the Su Family could roughly be considered a large immortal cultivation family within the jurisdiction of the Yunjian Sect.

Even powerhouses like the Huang Family would have to weigh the pros and cons before contending with the Su Family.

The Su Family had put a lot of investment in Su Zhi, aiming to push her onto the Foundation Establishment Realm and become the backbone of the family.

Now, whether the Su Family’s power can reach a higher level, all depends on this final step..
