Chapter 1661

With that thought, a faint smile appeared on Xiao Hua's face. With a wave of his hand, he took out a dozen Soul-Gathering Pills from his space and put them in his mouth!

When Xiang Yang saw Xiao Hua finally take out the pills, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

However, Yan Qinglian was careful. With a glance, she saw Xiao Hua take out a dozen pills, and her heart jumped. How could an Aura Refining cultivator take a dozen Foundation-Building Pills all at once when building their foundation? Even if their cultivation level wasn't high enough, they still had to take them one by one. However, when she saw Xiao Hua take out Soul-Gathering Pills, the expression on her face changed greatly!

Xiao Hua took a dozen Soul-Gathering Pills. The true energy produced by the Soul-Gathering Pills filled Xiao Hua's meridians to the brim. At this time, the Dragon Transformation Art also showed its effect. It wanted to slightly expand his meridians, but Xiao Hua tried his best to stop his meridians from expanding. On one hand, he mobilized his true energy to fiercely hit the barrier!

Once, twice … he tried a dozen times in a row, but he still couldn't break it.

Xiang Yang, who was standing not far from Xiao Hua, was somewhat anxious. He whispered, "Junior Brother, if it doesn't work, you can!

Take another Foundation-Building Pill! "

Yes, other people take a Foundation-Building Pill to have the phenomenon of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth condensing. You didn't take a Foundation-Building Pill, but now you took a Foundation-Building Pill, but there was no change. How could Xiang Yang not be anxious!

Yan Qinglian, who was at the side, stretched out her hand, wanting to pull Xiang Yang's sleeve. However, her hand stopped halfway, and she bit her lower lip. She really didn't know what Xiao Hua was doing!

She also didn't know how to explain it to Xiang Yang.

However, at this moment, the Foundation-Building pressure coming from Xiao Hua's body suddenly disappeared, as if it had never appeared. The spiritual energy condensing pearls within a radius of a dozen li also gradually melted like snow under the sun, disappearing without a trace!

"Ah????"

Xiang Yang's face once again showed incomparable astonishment. He really didn't expect that such a powerful Foundation-Building, such a large area of condensing pearls … would actually fail so easily!!!

Yes, failure. This was the thought that never crossed his mind when he saw Xiao Hua start building his foundation.

In an instant, incomparable disappointment grew in his heart. Unexpectedly, it was even more dispirited than his failure to build his foundation.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. This was indeed the case!

Yan Qinglian was also greatly shocked in her heart, but when she looked at Xiao Hua again, her face, which still had a slight smile just now, had now returned to normal, without any joy or sorrow, as if nothing had happened just now.

"Xiao …" Just as Xiang Yang was about to ask, Yan Qinglian pulled him back and shook her head slightly.

"He …" Xiang Yang sighed, not knowing what to say.

He could only shake his head and cast a sideways glance at the Shocking Thunder Palace disciples in the distance. Their faces were also filled with confusion, but there was a hint of "schadenfreude" in their eyes. He thought to himself, "Sigh, my Ten Thousand Thunder Valley has become a laughing stock again!"

At this time, Xiao Hua didn't have too many thoughts in his heart. Since he had already made his choice, he could only move forward.

However, when true qi rushed into the new meridians, it was somewhat difficult for Xiao Hua. After all, what he obtained was the cultivation method of a Foundation Building stage cultivation technique. Moreover, he didn't start from the early stage of the Foundation Building stage. According to the position of the meridians, it should be the circulation method of the late stage of the Foundation Building stage. Moreover, he even started from half of the late stage meridians.

Fortunately, the cultivation method of this 《Prairie Fire Cultivation Technique》 was actually effective. Following Xiao Hua's circulation according to the cultivation method, new spiritual energy of heaven and earth had already entered his body. At the same time, it also started to temper the new meridians.

However, when Xiao Hua was halfway through the cultivation method, an abnormality occurred again. This 《Prairie Fire Cultivation Technique》's late stage cultivation method could only be used by half, and the other half couldn't be used at all!

"Huh?

What's going on? "Xiao Hua thought to himself," Could it be … because what's being tempered is true qi, and not true essence?

If that's the case, can the first, middle, and last three layers of this 《Prairie Fire Cultivation Technique》 correspond to the sixth layer of the Aura Refining stage?

Then … wouldn't I have reached the eighteenth layer of the Aura Refining stage? "

As soon as the thought of reaching the eighteenth layer of the Aura Refining stage appeared in Xiao Hua's mind, an incomparable confidence was born in his heart. It was as if … this Aura Refining stage should be at the eighteenth layer!

Soon after, Xiao Hua once again circulated his cultivation method. After stabilizing his realm, he opened his eyes. What entered his eyes was Xiang Yang's pair of indescribable eyes.

However, seeing Xiao Hua open his eyes, Xiang Yang's gaze immediately changed into one of comfort. He said with a smile, "Little Junior Brother … don't be anxious. This is only your first time building your foundation, failure is inevitable.

This failure was already clearly explained to Master when he accepted you as his disciple that day. Presumably, you've also made sufficient preparations.

You see, didn't Elder Brother also use fifty years to build my foundation?

You … if you cultivate for a few more years, you'll definitely be able to build your foundation a second time! "

Xiao Hua's face didn't carry any dejection. Admittedly, he couldn't tell Eldest Senior Brother about the matter of the thirteenth layer of the Aura Refining stage. However, seeing Eldest Senior Brother's sincere concern, Xiao Hua said with a smile, "Many thanks for Eldest Senior Brother's concern. Little Junior Brother is originally a loose cultivator, and his foundation is really bad. Not being able to build my foundation … is precisely within Little Junior Brother's expectations.

On the contrary, Eldest Senior Brother was disappointed by my great momentum just now! "

"Alas, Elder Brother … can't say that I'm disappointed. I just didn't want Little Junior Brother to walk on Elder Brother's path again. However, no matter how much I calculated, Little Junior Brother still followed Elder Brother!" Xiang Yang couldn't help but sigh. "Elder Brother only has regret, but what about Master?"

"Alas, of course, there's still Master!" Xiao Hua had a bitter smile on his face as he recalled the helplessness he felt when he wholeheartedly wanted to build his foundation.

"Senior Brother Xiao …" A distant Thunderclap Palace disciple shouted, "I've already been waiting here for many days. Since Senior Brother Xiao hasn't been able to build his foundation, please hand over the spiritual plants to I as soon as possible so that I can return to the palace and report back!"

"Good, good, good!" Xiao Hua naturally didn't feel anything in his heart, so he said 'good' three times in a row.

He turned his head and asked, "Eldest Senior Brother … should Little Junior Brother return to Myriad Thunder Valley to see Master?"

"What do you think?" Xiang Yang asked back.

"Alright, Eldest Senior Brother, please wait a moment. This place is also on the way back to Myriad Thunder Valley. After Little Junior Brother delivers the spiritual plants, Little Junior Brother will return to Myriad Thunder Valley with Eldest Senior Brother and Senior Sister-in-law!"

As he spoke, he unfolded his figure, flew in front of the Thunderclap Palace disciple, and said, "Let's go."

At this time, the Thunderclap Palace disciple's deference was gone. He slightly nodded his head, only showing the only courtesy he had, and followed Xiao Hua as he flew towards Eastern Ridge.

After all, the number of times Xiao Hua could build his foundation was limited. If Xiao Hua couldn't build his foundation this time, the next chance would be even less. Moreover … whether there would be a next time was still uncertain. If nothing unexpected happened, Xiao Hua would only be an Aura Refining cultivator in this lifetime. This Thunderclap Palace disciple … wouldn't be respectful to him!

As he watched Xiao Hua fly away, Xiang Yang heavily sighed, "How … how is this possible!!!

Even without taking a Foundation-Building Pill, there are signs of building his foundation. How can he still fail after taking a Foundation-Building Pill?!!

This … "

Yan Qinglian's eyes turned, and she said in a low voice, "Husband … are you sure Little Junior Brother took a Foundation-Building Pill?"

"How …" Helplessness was greatly alarmed. He had never thought that Xiao Hua would be so careless when building his foundation!!!

Inside the Immortal's Cave, Helplessness's face was gloomy, even thicker than the red clouds of a winter night. With a bang, Helplessness's hand slapped the stone chair, and he scolded, "Xiang Yang, what the hell are you doing?

I originally wanted you to take Xiao Hua to that place to build his foundation to avoid people's eyes and ears, but you actually let a Thunderclap Palace disciple follow him!

You let an Aura Refining brat watch our Myriad Thunder Valley's bustle!

You … how did you become the Eldest Senior Brother? "

"Master …" Xiang Yang wanted to argue, but after calling him master, he didn't know what to say. He couldn't just drive him away, right?

Moreover, looking at Xiao Hua's appearance, he was actually able to sense his own foundation. He definitely had a hundred percent certainty. Even with that kind of momentum of building his foundation, even disciples who hadn't built their foundation wouldn't suspect that Xiao Hua had failed to build his foundation!

However, as it happened, Xiao Hua had failed!

As for Xiao Hua taking a Soul-Gathering Pill and not a Foundation-Building Pill, although Yan Qinglian had told Xiang Yang, Xiang Yang simply didn't believe her. Who would be so bored as to make things difficult for him?

Not building his foundation??

Moreover, why would he take a Soul-Gathering Pill at this time?

The True Qi in his entire meridians was already saturated. If he wanted to increase it, he had to liquefy his True Qi into True Essence. That could only be done by taking a Foundation-Building Pill. It was impossible for Xiao Hua to take a Soul-Gathering Pill.

Of course, while Xiang Yang firmly believed, he also warned Yan Qinglian that this kind of matter absolutely couldn't be revealed to Master Wu Hai.

He knew that Wu Hai had a lot of expectations for Xiao Hua's foundation building!!!

"Master, it's all this disciple's fault. It has nothing to do with Eldest Senior Brother!" Xiao Hua's complexion was calm as he bowed and said.

"Hmph ~" Wu Hai glanced at Xiao Hua. The anger he had been holding back for a long time finally came out: "Xiao Hua, you little bastard!

What should I say about you?

You … you clearly know that you're a loose cultivator. You once practiced two kinds of cultivation methods during the Aura Refining stage. Your True Qi is mottled and impure, so you have to put more effort into your cultivation. Don't put your thoughts on the unorthodox path. What sword pill, what Divine Accumulation Talisman, what magic treasure, those things aren't the right path. Only by properly practicing cultivation methods and smoothly building your foundation can you be considered a true success!

Take a look at yourself. At that time, the signs of foundation building were abundant, and you were so arrogant, but … what was the use of that?

Didn't you still fail?

You have to know, enough is enough. Going too far is as bad as falling short. That's what I'm talking about!

You blindly pursue profound magic power. That's only neglecting the essentials and pursuing the trifles!

You … what do you want me to say about you?? "

Bang ~ Another sound rang out, and he slapped the stone chair: "What did I teach you that day?

Do you still think I'm your master? "

"Husband!"

At the side, Zhuo Minghui laughed apologetically: "This is only Xiao Hua's first time building his foundation. It's not like he won't have another chance in the future. Aren't you just adding to his burden by saying so much?

How will he cultivate in the future? "

"How will he cultivate?

He has a Senior Brother at his side who used fifty years to build his foundation. How will he know how to cultivate?! "

Wu Hai sneered helplessly. Soon after, he waved his large sleeve and said: "Go, don't hang around in front of me. Ask your Eldest Senior Brother what to do in the future. Hurry up and cultivate!

In a few days, the news of my Myriad Thunder Valley's second disciple failing to build his foundation will spread throughout the entire Thunderclap Palace. "

"Sigh, should I go accept another disciple?" Wu Hai muttered helplessly in a low voice.
