126: Return Home

"Hall Master, can you reward me with a set of foundation establishment pill Spirit Medicine?" Chen Jiancang asked, his face full of anticipation.

Chen Jiancang's request greatly surprised Chen Yintian.

It wasn't that the foundation establishment pill Spirit Medicine was expensive; in fact, compared to a foundation establishment pill, a set of foundation establishment pill Spirit Medicine was only one-third the price of a single foundation establishment pill.

The Alchemists in the Family who could refine foundation establishment pills usually only produced one pill per furnace.

In Chen Yintian's opinion, it would be better to choose a foundation establishment pill directly rather than a set of Spirit Medicine.

But Chen Jiancang had his own plans. One foundation establishment pill would be useless to him, but if he had a complete set of foundation establishment pill Spirit Medicine, once he accumulated enough experience in refining foundation establishment pills, he could use this set of Spirit Medicine to refine foundation establishment pills, and the number of pills produced would definitely not be just one.

"Cang-ge, I know you have great talent in Alchemy, but refining foundation establishment pills is not as simple as it seems. Uncle-Grandfather advises you to choose a foundation establishment pill directly. Once you accumulate more Family Contribution Points, you can then exchange for two more foundation establishment pills from the Family Treasury using those points. With three foundation establishment pills for Foundation Establishment, even if you have a Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root, there's still a certain chance of Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Stage," Chen Yintian advised.

He believed Chen Jiancang's decision to choose a set of Foundation Establishment Spirit Medicine was wrong, but Chen Jiancang didn't think so. The three main Spirit Medicines for Foundation Establishment were extremely difficult to find and rarely circulated on the market. In most cases, they were monopolized by various Cultivator forces.

Collecting a set of Foundation Establishment Spirit Medicine would be too mentally exhausting, and Chen Jiancang had previously checked the Family Treasury, which did not have exchanges for the main Spirit Medicine of the foundation establishment pill.

After all, in the Family's eyes, a set of Foundation Establishment Spirit Medicine represented a foundation establishment pill.

If Chen Jiancang didn't seize this opportunity now, finding another chance to make his own demands would be extremely difficult.

Of course, Chen Jiancang would have another opportunity to obtain foundation establishment pills later, which would be to retain foundation establishment pills from a furnace of finished pills when refining foundation establishment pills for the Family.

But the prerequisite for this method was that he had outstanding achievements that would allow the Family to entrust him with refining Foundation Establishment Pills; otherwise, the Family would never risk giving a set of foundation establishment pill Spirit Medicine to a novice to refine.

Therefore, the set of foundation establishment pill Spirit Medicine he was asking for now was extremely important.

"Uncle-Grandfather, I know you mean well, but I have made my decision. I want a set of Foundation Establishment Spirit Medicine. Please grant my request," Chen Jiancang's words revealed a firm attitude.

Chen Youming, who was standing nearby, heard Chen Jiancang's decision and stomped his foot in exasperation, but seeing Chen Jiancang's resolute demeanor, he could only sigh and no longer object.

"Alas, very well. Since you have already made up your mind, Uncle-Grandfather will not try to persuade you further." Chen Yintian nodded and instructed a Law Enforcement Hall Disciple to take his Hall Master token to the Family Treasury and retrieve a set of foundation establishment pill Spirit Medicine... Green mountains stretched endlessly, clear waters flowed gently, and mist swirled among the peaks, like an unfurled ink wash painting.

Chen Jiancang and Chen Youming returned to the Xiaoyun Mountain Spirit Vein together by spiritual boat. At this moment, Chen Youming's face was filled with excitement and joy. Although Chen Youming did not receive much of the credit for eradicating the Insect Cultivator Protector, his contribution in introducing Meng Changxiu to expose the Insect Cultivator Protector's conspiracy to the Family could not be erased.

This time, Hall Master Yintian had rewarded him with a generous 3,000 Family Contribution Points. One must know that he only earned a little over 200 Family Contribution Points for a year of hard work guarding the Spirit Plant Hall. 3,000 Family Contribution Points was equivalent to 15 years of his diligent efforts.

"Haha, Jiancang, I have to thank you very much this time! If it weren't for me acting as your matchmaker, how would I have had the chance to earn so many Family Contribution Points? 3,000 Contribution Points! I can now accumulate enough Family Contribution Points in my lifetime to exchange for a foundation establishment pill!"

Chen Youming, with his Three Spiritual Roots talent and Qi Refining Ninth Layer cultivation, besides some experience in the Dao of Spirit Plants, had no expertise in the four major cultivation arts of Alchemy, Talismans, Artifacts, and Formations. He could only rely on his position in the Spirit Plant Hall, with a salary of 200 Family Contribution Points, to slowly accumulate the Family Contribution Points needed to exchange for a foundation establishment pill.

To accumulate enough Family Contribution Points could take a long time, but now, this long period had been shortened by a full 15 years. How could Chen Youming not be excited and joyful?

"But Jiancang, you're really foolish! Instead of asking Hall Master Yintian for a foundation establishment pill, you asked for a set of Foundation Establishment Spirit Medicine. Don't you know how low the success rate of refining foundation establishment pills is?" Chen Youming said, looking at Jiancang with some regret.

Jiancang did not respond. Only he knew that his choice was the wisest decision.

Returning home, Chen Jiancang first went to Plot 30 Spiritual Field and found that the Spirit Plants and Spirit Medicine in the field were growing orderly, with no weeds. Without needing to think much, he knew that Chen Jianyun had come to help him care for the Spiritual Field these past few days.

Immediately, Chen Jiancang then applied spiritual rain according to the characteristics of each Spirit Plant and Spirit Medicine.

The spiritual rain drizzled down into the Spiritual Field, making the stems and leaves of the Spirit Plants and Spirit Medicine lush and vibrant. Chen Jiancang carefully bent down and used his Golden Finger to begin checking the growth status of each Spirit Plant and Spirit Medicine.

These Spirit Plants and Spirit Medicine were the foundation of his cultivation advancement, and not the slightest mistake could be tolerated. Chen Jiancang meticulously inspected them, confirming that there were no problems with these Spirit Plants and Spirit Medicine, before leisurely heading towards Plot 147 Spiritual Field.

Planting Blood Nether Vine in Plot 147 Spiritual Field was his most urgent task at the moment.

This time, at the mainPulse Market, Chen Jiancang had already collected a large amount of Yao Beast blood, enough for him to irrigate and plant the Blood Nether Vine. Moreover, he had also collected all 30 kinds of auxiliary Spirit Seeds for the foundation establishment pill from Head of the Pill Hall Chen Yinsu. He just needed to use his Golden Finger to identify the suitable types of Spirit Medicine to plant before he could proceed with the planting.

Everything was developing in a good direction.

Before reaching Plot 147 Spiritual Field, Chen Jiancang saw Chen Jianyun busy in the Spiritual Field from afar, with a fiery red figure scampering and jumping around her.

The fiery red figure seemed to have smelled Chen Jiancang's scent, suddenly stopped its frolicking, and barked towards Chen Jiancang.

"Woof woof woof~"

Chen Jianyun heard Chixiao's barks and straightened up, looking in the direction of Chixiao's calls. When she saw Chen Jiancang's figure, her originally calm eyes instantly filled with a gentle, watery light.

She disregarded the unfinished farm work in her hands, ran out of the Spiritual Field, and rushed towards Chen Jiancang.

"Cang-ge, when did you return? Where's Sister Meng?" Chen Jianyun shyly threw herself into Chen Jiancang's arms. Several days apart felt like three autumns.
