At the same time, to prevent conspiracies among factions, there can only be winners and losers, no draws. The final ranking of each sect is decided by the total points of their three disciples.

Therefore, these three disciples must be the best and the most powerful fighters of the entire sect. If not, they would be a drag in the competition and affect the final ranking.

The duration of the whole competition will last for three months. This is to give the participating disciples ample resting time to compete in their best condition for each round.

Lin Yi didn’t pay too much attention to the Secret Realm Grand Competition. He was fully focused on his cultivation. After reaching the perfect completion of the Qi Refining Tenth Layer, he rested a few days. He then planned to go all out and strive to break through the Foundation Establishment in a short time.

He planned to visit Old Huang in the Outer Sect. The last time he visited was during the Moon Festival a few months ago, which is equivalent to Earth’s Mid-Autumn Festival.

At that time, Old Huang’s health was nearly at its end. He had to hunch his body while walking with a limp, and he had become very thin.

But this old fella persisted in staying in the Outer Sect and refused to move to the Inner Sect.

About a year and a half ago, Old Huang was arranged by Sinong Palace to recuperate at home. His salary of spirit stones was still paid every month. A Spirit Farmer was arranged to take care of his daily life. He lived a retired life ever since.

When Lin Yi arrived at Old Huang’s residence, the old man was lying in a chair sunbathing. Next to him was the Outer Sect Spirit Farmer who took care of his daily life, who was probably around Qi Refining Level Four.

Seeing Lin Yi walking in, the Outer Sect Spirit Farmer quickly stood up and bowed, “Brother Lin, you are here.”

“I just finished my cultivation practice a few days ago, so I thought I’d come and see you during my rest,” Lin Yi said with a smile.

He walked over to see Old Huang looking weak and teased, “Old Huang, you’ve been having too much fun at the Fairy Pleasure Tavern, haven’t you? Now look at yourself, completely worn out.”

Struggling to sit up, Old Huang scolded laughingly, “Ha, nonsense. You’re the one who’s worn out. You’ve been going to the Flower Moon Land continuously for a few months, more often than I have in decades. freew ebnove l.com

However, his voice had become extremely weak. Even cultivators, if they can’t break through the boundary before their lifespans end, can’t escape the fate of aging, falling ill, and dying.

Legend has it that only by achieving the Immortal Emperor status can one live as long as heaven and earth do, being immortal and invincible.

“I went there to cultivate, not to let the female cultivators from the Fairy Pleasure Tower drain my spiritual power for their gain like you did,” Lin Yi said jokingly.

“Ha, cultivating, my ass. You’re just broke, ha…,” Old Huang laughed so hard he started coughing violently, even coughing up blood.

Lin Yi patted him on the back, “Just chat, why get so excited?”

After calming down a bit, Old Huang looked at Lin Yi with his Spirit Wood Technique and waved his hand, “Lin Yi, you’re not making progress. It’s been two and a half years, and you still haven’t broken through to the eighth layer. I was hoping you’d reach Foundation Establishment before I die so you could take me to heaven.”

“Soon, just hold on for a few more years, then I can make you fly with my sword,” Lin Yi replied with a smile. With his understanding of the bottleneck of Foundation Establishment, and the help of [Grain Wisdom from One’s Mistakes], he should be able to break through in a few months.

The breakthrough to Foundation Establishment from the Qi Refining Tenth Layer is much easier than from the Qi Refining Ninth Layer. Climbing a single step is easy, but stepping over two steps is much more difficult.

“Good, I’ll be waiting for you in the underworld. Don’t forget to burn paper offerings for me,” Old Huang laughed.

After chatting with Old Huang for a while, Lin Yi left. Before he left, he gave some spirit stones to the Spirit Farmer, instructing him to take good care of Old Huang and buy some good food.

Then, he returned to his Jin Qiao Peak Cave Mansion and prepared for the breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.

Generally speaking, cultivators at the perfect completion of Qi Refining who wanted to reach Foundation Establishment would prepare Foundation Building Pills to increase their chances. Some especially wealthy individuals would prepare more than a dozen pills at once, like eating jelly beans, just grabbing another one if one didn’t work.

However, Lin Yi didn’t buy any Foundation Building Pill. He had the Enlightenment opportunity from [Grain Wisdom from One’s Mistakes] and the stacking effect every six days was quite strong. Besides, in the end, if he genuinely couldn’t break through, he could also enter the Minor Blessing State.

Under the protection of the Halo of Fortune, he should be able to successfully break through to Foundation Establishment. As for pills, they are external objects that forcefully help, not as natural as one’s own understanding.

Because he needed to concentrate on breaking through, he asked Senior Brother Qiu Sheng Hai, who helped him last time, to take care of the medicinal herb field.

The last time he asked Brother Qiu to come over was also when he was preparing to break through to Foundation Establishment, but then he understood the Creation Method instead and evolved the tenth layer bottleneck. Now, almost three years later, it was time to prepare for the Foundation Establishment again.

Brother Qiu was at the eighth layer last time. Two or three years have passed, and he is still at the eighth layer. However, judging by the Spring Rain Transformation Technique he unleashed, he should have reached the Great Achievement Realm.

Being able to reach the Great Achievement Realm within a few years, even without the help of the Golden Finger, can be considered very hardworking.

“Junior Brother Lin, you were about to break through the seventh layer when I came last time. Now you’re about to break through the eighth layer. When you come out, I’ll have to call you ‘Brother’,” Qiu Sheng Hai joked.

“May Brother Qiu’s words come true. The one who achieves first will be the elder. Even if I reach the eighth layer, I will still have to call you ‘brother’ Lin Yi replied with a laughing salute. He then entered the Cave Mansion and activated the formation for hiding his aura.

He was unsure if breaking through to Foundation Establishment would cause any abnormalities. Thus, he planned to leave the Cave Mansion when he was about to break through, find a deserted place, and then continue to break through..
