129: Chapter 129: Luo Ziyan Establishes Foundation

Yun Feiyang turned around and looked at Xiao Yuan: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, where are we going next?"

Xiao Yuan saw that he didn't make a move, and didn't care either. Yun Feiyang just had that kind of personality, there was no helping it. If it were him, he would certainly cut the weeds and eliminate the roots.

But right now, how could he have time to waste here? Killing twenty-odd people, although effortless, took time!

Holding Luo Ziyan in his arms, he had already walked forward.

"Find a place to treat her injuries."

Ye Qingcen and Su Li tacitly began to clean the battlefield!

The Storage Pouches of those killed Cultivators were all collected without leaving a single one. Especially the seven Foundation Establishment ones from the Yinluo Sect that Xiao Yuan killed; their Storage Pouches definitely contained good things.

The other girls were not idle either, helping to tidy up together.

After finishing up, the few of them quickly caught up with Xiao Yuan.

Yun Feiyang brought the other junior martial brothers and sisters and followed as well.

The group passed through Fengling Gorge and came before a cliff not far from the Secret Realm's teleportation array.

Xiao Yuan stopped in his tracks and looked around.

The cliff was steep and its location was secluded. It was neither too far nor too close to the teleportation array, making it just right.

He put down Luo Ziyan, walked to the cliff, and pressed his fingers together like a sword.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Sword Qi flashed, and crushed stones splattered everywhere!

In a short while, a simple Immortal Cave was carved out.

Xiao Yuan turned around, picked up Luo Ziyan, and said to the girls behind him: "You guys keep watch outside."

The girls nodded.

Holding Luo Ziyan, Xiao Yuan walked into the Immortal Cave.

Inside the Immortal Cave, Xiao Yuan helped Luo Ziyan sit down, reached out to place his hand on her wrist, and probed with his spiritual power.

After a moment, he let out a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, her spiritual power is only exhausted, and her Meridians are somewhat damaged. It's not a big problem."

He circulated his spiritual power, slowly transferring it into Luo Ziyan's body to help her repair her damaged Meridians.

At the same time, he activated the power of the Blood Shadow Divine Scripture to search for the Restriction placed on Luo Ziyan by the Yinluo Sect.

Although what he cultivated was an advanced version of the Cultivation Technique, they shared the same root and origin. The Restriction of the Yinluo Sect was quickly found by him.

This Restriction was obviously planted by a Golden Core Cultivator. However, with the might of Xiao Yuan's Blood Shadow Divine Scripture Cultivation Technique, that Restriction was melted and absorbed by the Blood Shadow Divine Scripture Cultivation Technique in less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea!

Luo Ziyan quietly looked at him, her eyes filled with tenderness and yearning. She did not care about her own condition in the slightest. She trusted Xiao Yuan!

After a long time, she softly spoke: "Senior Brother Xiao... How did you get out? That mineral vein... I heard that once someone goes in, it's very hard to come out..."

Xiao Yuan raised his head, looking at her appearance of heartache and worry for him, and his heart warmed.

This silly girl, even like this, she was still worrying about him. If it weren't for him, this silly girl wouldn't have fallen into her current plight!

He reached out and stroked her beautiful hair, softly saying: "I was lucky. I found a rich mineral vein in the mine, dug up quite a few Spirit Stones, and came out."

He paused and smiled: "Moreover, my cultivation has also broken through."

Only then did Luo Ziyan notice that Xiao Yuan's aura was completely different—Foundation Establishment Stage!

Her eyes widened: "You've reached Foundation Establishment?!"

Xiao Yuan nodded.

Luo Ziyan was stunned for a long time before murmuring: "I was still worrying about you... Desperately saving up contribution points wanting to redeem you... In the end, you came out yourself... I'm sorry, it's my fault for being useless... making you suffer a bit more..."

Speaking to this point, she raised her head to look at Xiao Yuan, her eyes filled with guilt.

At that time, her cultivation was too low and her strength was insufficient, so she could only watch helplessly as Xiao Yuan went to the mineral vein! Ever since Xiao Yuan went to the mineral vein, she worried every single moment.

Xiao Yuan looked at her, a wave of affection and pity welling up in his heart. This silly girl...

However, having such a silly girl worry about and care for him, wasn't that also a form of fortune?

He took out a Medicinal Pill from his bosom and handed it to Luo Ziyan.

Luo Ziyan looked down and was completely stunned.

The Medicinal Pill's entire body was flowing with colorful light, exuding a profound aura; it was precisely the celestial-grade foundation establishment pill!

"This... This is..."

"For you," Xiao Yuan smiled, "A foundation establishment pill, use it to undergo Foundation Establishment."

Luo Ziyan's eye sockets turned red, wanting to refuse, but her hand was held down by Xiao Yuan.

"Be obedient."

Luo Ziyan bit her lip and finally nodded.

She swallowed the Medicinal Pill, sat cross-legged, and began Foundation Establishment.

Two hours later.

Hum...

The aura around Luo Ziyan surged wildly, and she officially stepped into the Foundation Establishment Stage!

She opened her eyes, her eyes filled with pleasant surprise and gratitude as tears streamed out of her eyes.

"Senior Brother Xiao... I've reached Foundation Establishment... I've really reached Foundation Establishment..."

Xiao Yuan smiled and hugged her: "Silly girl, what are you crying for?"

Luo Ziyan leaned in his embrace, crying like a child.

Since childhood, she had suffered bullying in the Sect, and that time she almost died, it was Xiao Yuan who saved her.

It was also Xiao Yuan who gave her the Medicinal Pill. Although the two of them had started with a transaction, within this transaction, how could she not have experienced the warmth Xiao Yuan gave her?!

Later, when Xiao Yuan went to the mineral vein, she desperately did missions and saved up contribution points just to redeem him.

She thought she would never see him again in this lifetime.

Never did she expect that upon meeting again, Xiao Yuan not only saved her but also allowed her to undergo Foundation Establishment.

"Thank you..." she choked out.

Xiao Yuan gently patted her back, his heart filled with tenderness.

When Luo Ziyan's emotions stabilized, Xiao Yuan took out another Jade Slip and a small jade bottle.

"This is the Dual Cultivation Technique, "Yin-Yang Chaos Harmony Technique". These are fifty ziyun pills, enough for you to Cultivate to Peak Foundation Establishment, or even Core Formation."

He also took out a few Core Formation spiritual items: "These are for you as well, you'll find them useful in the future."

Looking at these things before her, Luo Ziyan was completely dumbfounded.

celestial-grade foundation establishment pills, ziyun pills, Core Formation spiritual items, Dual Cultivation Techniques...

"You... How do you have so many good things?"

Xiao Yuan smiled: "Good luck, picked them up in the Secret Realm."

Luo Ziyan looked at him, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

She knew that Xiao Yuan must have experienced countless dangers to exchange for these.

She silently took the items and softly said: "I will definitely Cultivate well and not let you down."

Xiao Yuan nodded, hesitated for a moment, and spoke: "Um... There are still a few... well, friends outside. They will also Cultivate together with us."

Luo Ziyan was startled, then thought of something, her face turning slightly red.

But she didn't say anything, only gently nodding.

Over the next few days, Xiao Yuan and the girls cultivated the Dual Cultivation Technique in the Immortal Cave.

He had almost slaughtered all the people of the Yinluo Sect, and he also had grievances with several other major forces. He didn't know whether those people would come looking for trouble after leaving the Secret Realm.

He wanted to take advantage of the few days before the Secret Realm closed to improve his strength here. Only in this way would he be able to have sufficient self-preservation capability.

After the cultivation of the women improved, they would also be able to protect themselves.

Luo Ziyan was a bit shy at first, but she quickly integrated into it.

Strangely enough, cultivating in the Secret Realm made cultivation improve extremely slowly.

Luo Ziyan had taken a few ziyun pills, but her cultivation only improved from Early Foundation Establishment to the Peak of the Early Stage, and she could no longer go up.

"What is going on here?" She was somewhat puzzled.
