“Of course, having a Master or a close friend who is a Foundation Establishment Master increases the probability of building the foundation later on compared to regular cultivators.”

This matter-of-fact statement from Ping’er left He Song stunned. What?

Having a Master or close friend who is a Foundation Establishment Master greatly increases the chances of building one’s foundation compared to that of regular cultivators?

Why?

Although He Song, an everlasting being, had never considered foundation-building as his ultimate goal.

For He Song,

Foundation-building had always only been the starting point on his Immortal Path.

However, when Ping’er mentioned it, He Song couldn’t quite believe it.

According to the information He Song had obtained from the Spirit Skill

Pavilion, isn’t it very difficult to become a Foundation Establishment Master?

How come according to Ping’er, as long as one is associated with a Foundation Establishment Master, their chances of building a foundation are much higher than regular cultivators?

If that’s the case, wouldn’t Foundation Establishment Masters be everywhere?

“What do you mean? Is there any secret behind this? Why are Foundation Establishment Masters still so rare?”

Without much thought, He Song directly asked.

Since Ping’er had already mentioned it, it means there is a high probability that this is true.

He just didn’t Imow the reason behind it.

As he spoke, He Song’s gaze swept over Meng Guan and Master Qingy Yue, who were still arguing, a flash of doubt passing through his eyes.

Could it be… the breakthrough experience of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators significantly increases the probability of breaking through the Foundation Establishment Realm?

Or… with the help of a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, obtaining the Foundation Establishment Elixir would be much easier?

Or… are there other secrets he’s not aware of?

“You don’t know? Well, it makes sense since your friend only just broke through the Foundation Establishment stage. It’s normal that you don’t know.

Let me tell you, but you must not reveal it.”

Seeing He Song’s confusion, Ping’er quickly reacted after some pondering.

After warning He Song not to reveal it, she quickly retold the story. “Although this information is not disclosed, you’re not an outsider, so I’ll tell you.”

“During the Qi Refining stage, the chances of getting a Foundation Establishment Elixir are very rare. Do you know why? You should know that although the materials for the Foundation Establishment Elixir are precious and difficult to refine, there is still some production within the Golden Elixir Great Sect.”

“However, most of the Foundation Establishment Elixirs are consumed internally. Foundation Establishment Masters who want to train their successors will intercept the Foundation Establishment Elixirs and give them to the younger generation.”

“With the Foundation Establishment Elixir, Qi Refining great perfection cultivators’ chances of building a foundation naturally become much higher than ordinary cultivators.”

“The occasional appearance of Foundation Establishment Elixirs in the city is merely a ploy by the sect to give Loose cultivators a glimmer of hope; the real bulk is in the hands of various Foundation Establishment Masters, used to train the younger generation.”

“Moreover, when training their successors, the Foundation Establishment

Masters usually share their breakthrough experiences with them. With the Foundation Establishment Elixir and the breakthrough experience, their chances of building a foundation are naturally greatly increased.”

“As for why there are so few Foundation Establishment Masters… even with all these, the success rate of cultivators in building foundations has only increased, but it’s still not a guaranteed success.”

“Those who can truly break through the Foundation Establishment Realm are still very rare.”

“However, compared to loose cultivators, having a Master or a close friend who’s a Foundation Establishment Master makes building a foundation much more likely.”

After listening to Ping’er’s explanation, He Song finally understood.

With the Foundation Establishment Elixir and the breakthrough insights, even cultivators with average talent will have a much higher chance of breaking through compared to ordinary loose cultivators.

Under such circumstances,

It’s quite normal for Ping’er to feel that there’s hope for her foundation-building.

However… isn’t Ping’er a bit too overconfident? According to what she said, He Song thought her breakthrough into the Foundation Establishment stage would be as simple as eating and drinking every day.

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist Ping’er, for clearing up my confusion. I am deeply grateful.”

He Song gave a slight bow to Ping’er, not thinking too much about it. However, a weight was lifted off his heart after learning this piece of information.

If it is true as Ping’er said, the chances of him and Wei Fan breaking through the Foundation Establishment stage will be greatly increased in the future. He himself doesn’t care since building a foundation wouldn’t be able to stop him anyway.

Even without a Foundation Establishment Elixir, all he needs to do is get a Vein Protection Elixir, and he will be able to grind to build his foundation over time using multiple attempts.

A failure means recuperating for ten years.

After ten years, he could attempt to break through again.

He Song doesn’t believe that after dozens, if not hundreds, of attempts, he still won’t be able to break through the Foundation Establishment Realm.

However, Wei Fan is different. He’s a cultivator from the Immortal Pavilion, and his chances of building a foundation are extremely low.

Without a Foundation Establishment Elixir and breakthrough insights, Wei Fan’s chances of breaking through the Foundation Establishment Realm are almost non-existent.

Of course, the same applies to Meng Guan.

However, Meng Guan managed to break through against the odds and successfully entered the Foundation Establishment Realm.

In regards to this, He Song could only attribute it to a stroke of luck.

As for whether Wei Fan would have the same luck, He Song couldn’t be sure.

Therefore, after learning about this, He Song was relieved.

At least, Wei Fan now had a glimmer of hope in building a foundation.

He Song’s gaze subconsciously glanced at Wei Fan, only to see him looking at He Song in astonishment.

At this, He Song gave a smile, then turned to look at Ping’er.

“No worries, if your friend who established a foundation joins the Thick Earth

Sect, you might even have to call me Senior Sister.”

With a wave of her hand, a smile appeared in Ping’er’s eyes as she looked at He Song, her eyes narrowing into crescent shapes, seemingly looking forward to the day when He Song would call her Senior Sister.

However, after hearing Ping’er’s words, He Song was completely puzzled.

Senior Sister?

What Senior Sister?

Ping’er is currently a disciple of the Thick Earth Sect.

Furthermore, she is a disciple of Master Qingy Yue.

How could He Song, a mere cultivator from the Immortal Pavilion, call her Senior Sister?

Unless…

He Song thought of something and immediately looked at Ping’er in surprise.

“It seems you’ve guessed it. Loose cultivators who establish their foundation and choose to join the Thick Earth Sect can bring others with them.”

“However, one must start as an outer disciple and have at least the cultivation level of Qi-refining late stage, but no more than three people can join.”

“This is what is called ‘when one man achieves enlightenment, all his family and friends are lifted up with him’.”

“As for whether he’s willing to take you two with him into the sect, I don’t know. But since you’re close friends, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

In the face of He Song’s astonishment, Ping’er spoke faintly.

This was the reason she considered He Song not as an outsider and shared this information with him.

Based on her guess, there was a high likelihood that He Song and Wei Fan would be recruited into the Thick Earth Sect.

By that time, He Song would become a disciple of the Thick Earth Sect, naturally becoming an insider.

Telling him about these things in advance wouldn’t hurt, as there was no fear of this spreading.

After all, it was easy to imagine how much trust Meng Guan had in He Song and Wei Fan, considering that he asked them to safeguard his breakthrough when he was about to build his foundation.

Now that Meng Guan had become a Foundation Establishment Master, Imowing that he could take others with him into the Thick Earth Sect, he would naturally not abandon He Song and Wei Fan.

With such a connection, the chances of them not being recruited into the Thick Earth Sect are minimal.

It could be said that,

As long as Meng Guan agreed to join the Thick Earth Sect, it would be a done deal for He Song and Wei Fan to become disciples of the Thick Earth Sect..
