34: Chapter 34 Secluded Cultivation Breakthrough, the Du Family's Predicament

Lingtai Peak.

Bai Yunzhou returned from the marketplace and descended on his flying sword.

As soon as he entered his Immortal Cave, he saw Zhou Zhiting fiddling with several porcelain bottles in front of the dining table.

With his knowledge, he could naturally tell at a glance that those porcelain bottles contained Medicinal Pills to assist Qi Cultivators in making a Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.

"Are you preparing for a Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment?"

Hearing the question, Zhou Zhiting only then noticed his return, and nodded.

"Mn, thanks to the blessing of the Senior Brother, after this period of dietary supplementation, my cultivation base has already reached the Peak of Qi, and there is no longer any room for improvement."

Due to the uniqueness of her Physique and Cultivation Technique, as long as she consumed large amounts of food, she could improve her cultivation base.

During this time, with the permission of Bai Yunzhou, she was able to eat a large amount of Yao Beast meat every day, so her cultivation base naturally improved rapidly.

"Now, if I want to continue improving my cultivation base, I can only break through my Realm first."

Bai Yunzhou walked forward and carefully examined the Medicinal Pills she had prepared once more.

"This is the Heart-Cleansing Pill I prepared previously for my Foundation Establishment Breakthrough."

He took out a porcelain bottle containing Medicinal Pills from his Storage Pouch, placed it on the table, and continued speaking.

"If you consume it during your Breakthrough, it can stabilize your mind."

"That should be about it!"

Zhou Zhiting carried gratitude in her eyes, and quickly apologized.

"Many thanks, Senior Brother!"

Afterwards, Bai Yunzhou told her about the experience he had accumulated during his own Breakthrough, as well as many precautions.

"Just right, for the next period of time, I will also enter closed-door cultivation to break through to the Mid Foundation Establishment."

Bai Yunzhou continued speaking.

"You can take advantage of this time to break through together."

Zhou Zhiting nodded.

"Yes, Senior Brother."

After explaining everything, he then came to the practice room and began to work on his Breakthrough.

First, he took out all the Medicinal Pills he had purchased from the marketplace, placed them in front of him, and checked them one by one.

"Wuji Pills, Zhencao Gold, Tianxin Liquid..."

In addition to the previously purchased Medicinal Pills, he also took out two bottles of ten-thousand-year spiritual milk from his Storage Pouch.

This was to prevent a failure in the Breakthrough caused by excessive consumption of Spiritual Qi during the process.

After everything was properly prepared, he sat cross-legged and adjusted his condition to the best state.

"It is time for me to try to break through!"

With that thought, he picked up a porcelain bottle in front of him, poured out a pill from inside, tossed it into his mouth, and swallowed it in one gulp.

As the Medicinal Pill entered his abdomen, Bai Yunzhou immediately felt a warm current begin to wander throughout his entire body.

Without the slightest hesitation, he directly circulated the Nine Gates Method, mobilizing the Spiritual Qi within his body to nourish and widen his Meridians.

Everything was very smooth.

However, as this strand of Spiritual Qi reached the edge of his Dantian, attempting to break through to the Mid Foundation Establishment, it encountered a huge obstacle.

However, all of this was within his expectations.

He continued to mobilize the Spiritual Qi in his body, constantly gathering it here.

As long as the Spiritual Qi gathered to a certain amount, he could make an attempt.

Several hours later, he finally gathered all the mobilizable Spiritual Qi in his body and began attempting his first Breakthrough.

But very quickly, this first attempt ended in failure.

At the same time, blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and his complexion was somewhat pale.

Fortunately, he had prepared for this long ago, and immediately grabbed a pill in front of him, swallowing it into his abdomen in one gulp.

This caused his originally pale complexion to recover a trace of color in the blink of an eye.

Then he continued to circulate the Nine Gates Method, slowly gathering the previously scattered Spiritual Qi once again, preparing for his second attempt.

Thus, half a month time flashed by in an instant.

At this moment.

Inside the Du Family main hall.

More than a dozen Foundation Establishment direct descendants of the Du Family were all sitting around here, and the atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.

"First Branch, is the news really confirmed? Has the Core Formation of the Du Family been completely wiped out?"

Someone looked at the middle-aged man sitting upright in the main seat and asked.

This middle-aged man being questioned was named Du Chuan, the strongest among the current direct descendants of the Du Family, and was a Peak Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

He was also only a step away from Core Formation.

"I have confirmed the news time and time again. Several Core Formation powerhouses of the Du Family have all fallen on Lingbao Mountain, and they all died by the sword of Elder Zhou Mu!"

Someone looked at him and said in shock,

"You mean to say that all those Core Formation Elders of the Du Family were killed by Elder Zhou Mu?"

Du Chuan nodded heavily.

"That lunatic, how dare she!"

Someone cried out in shock and anger.

Slaughtering Core Formation peers without reason, even if Elder Zhou Mu was an Elder, she would definitely be punished by the Sect.

Someone else had a face full of panic, looking like the sky had collapsed.

"It is over, the Du Family is completely finished. Without Core Formation powerhouses holding down the fort, I am afraid we will not be able to stay in the Inner Sect any longer."

The reason why the Du Family could gain a foothold in the Qingxuan Sect Inner Sect was precisely because of the existence of several Core Formation powerhouses.

Among them, there was even one at Peak Core Formation.

Precisely because of this, the Du Family could occupy quite a lot of resources within the Qingxuan Sect.

But now, these Core Formation Cultivators of the Du Family had actually all fallen, so the resources of the Du Family would definitely have to be spat out in the future.

By then, the Du Family would probably no longer have such good days within the Qingxuan Sect.

There was even a great possibility that the Du Family would be nibbled away and devoured by other families within the Sect.

Among them, someone pointed at a young Cultivator and said angrily,

"Du Feiran, look at this, this is all the trouble your younger brother caused!"

The young Cultivator called Du Feiran was a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and also the older brother of Du Yufan.

Following the falling of that voice just now, the fear in the hearts of everyone seemed to have found an outlet for venting, and they all began to accuse him.

"That is right, if your younger brother had not colluded with the Demonic Sect to assassinate that Bai Yunzhou, how could the Du Family have suffered this disaster!"

"I said long ago, if you did not manage Du Yufan well, sooner or later he would stir up a big trouble!"

"It would be fine if Du Yufan had stirred up trouble and fled himself, but he caused all of the Core Formation powerhouses of the Du Family to fall. He truly deserves to die!"

"Du Feiran, I think there is no need for you to sit here at all. Hurry up and get lost!"

"That is right, hurry up and get lost!"

"..."

Du Feiran's complexion turned iron-blue, but he could not find a reason to retort and could only endure it.

After all, the current situation of the Du Family was indeed caused by his younger brother, and it was completely normal for everyone to be angry at this moment.

But resentment also grew in his heart.

He hated that Bai Yunzhou.

If not for Bai Yunzhou bearing a grudge with his younger brother, how could his younger brother have sent people to assassinate him, ultimately causing a catastrophic disaster and fleeing?

How could his father have died?

How could the Core Formation Elders of the Du Family have been taken away by Elder Zhou Mu and killed outside the Sect!

At this moment, he had already decided to go and execute Du Yufan to vent the hatred in his heart.

Then he would leave the Sect and, just like his younger brother, return to the Family of his mother.

As for this Du Family, he would no longer be able to stay here in the future.

Neither did he want to stay any longer.

After all, now that the Du Family had no Core Formation Cultivators, how many good days could they still have?

Thinking of this, he immediately stood up and left amidst the curses of the Du Family crowd.
