Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Apart from Han Xin and Han Su, who couldn't be reached.

Everyone else who received the notification had almost the exact same reaction.

What?

Speechless!

Not long ago, Xu Zhangqing had just said he was at Qi Refining Late Stage, yet in this short time he had actually broken through to Foundation Establishment Stage — this was too unbelievable.

Normally speaking, after Qi Refining Late Stage there is still a Small Realm, or rather a stage where one easily gets stuck, and that is Qi Condensation Perfection.

Many people even need to rely on a Foundation Establishment Pill to break through.

As a result, no one expected Xu Zhangqing to suddenly announce to the outside world "successful Foundation Establishment."

Li Sancai was stunned: "You... established your foundation?"

Zhang Su found it hard to believe: "Already at the same realm as me?"

Hu Bugui was both surprised and delighted: "Lao Xu, wait for me, I'll bring some spirit beast meat over, let's celebrate properly!"

The fishing rod in Zhao Ziyue's hand suddenly dropped, his expression melancholy: "Does fishing really have no future?"

Bai Ling'er grinned: "Congratulations, too bad Eldest Sister won't let me come find you!"

Chu Qiu raised an eyebrow: "I'm still participating in the 【Zhengdu Conference】, I'll talk more when I get back!"

The people he knew were just these few for now, and everyone who could be notified had already been notified.

Anyway, apart from Chu Qiu and Bai Ling'er, the other few would all come to celebrate.

Therefore, starting from noon, Xu Zhangqing was busy in the kitchen preparing all kinds of food.

Whatever he had, whether Top-grade Spirit Rice, top-grade vegetables, top-grade fruits, or top-grade wine, he generously took out a portion of each.

The first person to arrive was Hu Bugui.

Upon hearing that Xu Zhangqing had successfully established his foundation, he immediately excitedly slaughtered one of his own raised Spirit Pigs, and then bought a lot of spirit beast meat that was over a hundred years old.

While everyone else was in shock and surprise, only Hu Bugui believed it without a doubt.

After all, once a Spirit Farmer reaches Foundation Establishment Stage they will possess Two Mu of Second Grade Spirit Field, and at that time they will definitely need more Spiritual Beast Feces.

Given the relationship between the two, naturally they couldn't look for anyone else.

"You're here." Xu Zhangqing handed over a piece of Watermelon.

Hu Bugui cheerfully took a bite, his mouth instantly sweet, then while looking at the newly added Spirit Field outside, he asked: "Lao Xu, what do you plan to plant in your Second Mu Spirit Field?"

Xu Zhangqing chopped pork ribs with a Kitchen Knife and replied: "Might plant some valuable Lingti."

Hu Bugui deeply agreed: "When Spirit Rice is sufficient, you absolutely must prioritize making money."

Cultivation, after all, requires wealth, companions, methods, and land — none can be lacking.

Wealth represents the pills, food, clothing, seclusion costs, etc. needed for cultivation.

Companions doesn't necessarily mean lovers; it can also be like-minded cultivation partners.

Methods naturally refers to the cultivation methods and spells used for cultivation.

Land differs by Spiritual Root; for a Wood Spirit Root, it is definitely Spirit Field.

Xu Zhangqing smiled: "If you have any suggestions, feel free to speak up."

Hu Bugui held Watermelon in his left hand, scratched his head with his right: "If you ask about things related to Spirit Beasts, I can explain them thoroughly, but in terms of planting I really don't understand much."

Xu Zhangqing nodded lightly to show understanding: "No worries, you eat slowly, more people are coming later."

Not long after, the second person finally arrived.

But this surprised both Xu Zhangqing and Hu Bugui quite a bit.

It wasn't Li Sancai, wasn't Zhao Ziyue, but rather Zhang Su.

"Junior Brother Xu... ah no, now I have to call you Xu Dao Friend!" Zhang Su descended from the sky stepping on a butterfly that kept changing disguise colors, and in his hands he was even holding a yellow Lingti.

Xu Zhangqing hurriedly washed his hands clean, then brought Hu Bugui out the door to welcome him: "Senior Brother Zhang jokes; in front of you I will always be Junior Brother."

Zhang Su first froze for a moment, then the smile on his face became even more radiant: "No wonder Junior Brother Xu you could succeed in Foundation Establishment!"

Dao Friend and Junior Brother, on the surface it's just a difference in address.

In reality, this also represents the relationship between them.

One must say, in terms of conduct, this Junior Brother Xu really has no faults.

Some people, when their realm is low, may appear more honest, but once they reach the same realm, they immediately start putting on airs.

Similar things, Zhang Su has encountered more than once.

However Xu Zhangqing is different; even though he has already reached the same realm as him, he remains humble, low-profile, honest, and especially sincere in dealing with people.

Although Hu Bugui wasn't familiar with him, he still cupped his fists in greeting: "Senior Brother Zhang!"

"Hello."

Zhang Su responded, then handed over the Lingti in his hand: "Junior Brother Xu, to celebrate your Foundation Establishment, Senior Brother specially prepared a 【Sunflower】."

"Thank you, Senior Brother!" Xu Zhangqing hurriedly accepted with both hands.

Sunflower, actually is just sunflower.

In Dongting Immortal Sect the most famous are two.

One is right at the Spirit Field Core, extremely huge, like a golden small Sun.

Almost all sunflowers originate from this one, counting as the mother plant.

The other flower was in the hands of Sword Cultivator Qin Baili, already refined into a magic tool.

The sunflower spirit plant has two functions.

One is to absorb and store sunlight.

The other is to gather more sunlight.

For spirit plants in the spirit field, it can speed up their growth.

Of course, if there is only one flower, the enhancement effect is not significant.

Since it was a gift from Zhang Su, Xu Zhangqing naturally valued it greatly.

Zhang Su looked at the additional one mu of spirit field and couldn't help nodding: "Quite good. With two mu of spirit field, the yield will double, and we can earn more spirit stones."

Xu Zhangqing placed this sunflower on the windowsill, then joked: "Compared to Senior Brother, I am surely a minor witch before a great witch."

"Hahaha!" Zhang Su laughed heartily upon hearing this.

Xu Zhangqing brought over a wooden chair: "Senior Brother, rest a moment. Senior Brother San Cai should also come over later; this time let you taste Junior Brother's cooking."

Upon hearing that Li Sancai would come, Zhang Su originally wanted to leave, but now immediately plopped down to sit.

Of course, the environment, atmosphere, and various daily necessities here certainly cannot compare to his own home.

After a while, a third person appeared.

Who?

Zhao Ziyue!

This fellow held several white fish in his hand.

Xu Zhangqing went to welcome him: "Lao Zhao, you're here."

Zhao Ziyue forced a laugh: "This is from……"

At this moment, Hu Bugui curled his lips and said: "Bought, not embarrassing."

Zhao Ziyue's smile froze, but he bit the bullet and continued: "This is the hooked-lip red carp I caught from the river near Ling Beast Valley."

Zhang Su couldn't help but say: "This kind of fish has tender flesh and few bones, suitable for steaming."

Xu Zhangqing took it, examining it while saying: "Senior Brother is quite the expert."

Zhang Su said quite proudly: "In terms of eating, drinking, and enjoyment, no one in the entire spirit field can compare to me!"

"Fine, I'll listen to Senior Brother; steam it." Xu Zhangqing didn't care about this aspect.

Afterward, he took the hooked-lip red carp and turned to enter the kitchen.

Because Zhang Su was present, Hu Bugui and Zhao Ziyue dared not speak casually, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Fortunately, not long after, the person who broke the deadlock appeared.

Naturally, it was Li Sancai, whom everyone looked forward to.

Xu Zhangqing washed his hands clean again and went out to welcome him: "Senior Brother Li!"

Zhang Su smiled and greeted: "Dao Friend Li Sancai!"

Li Sancai was surprised: "I didn't expect Dao Friend Zhang to be here too."

Zhang Su explained: "I and Junior Brother Xu are old acquaintances."

After Li Sancai rode the flying paper crane down, he took out a mirror from his storage bag: "Junior Brother Xu, this is the gift I brought for you!"

Xu Zhangqing took it and examined it carefully, then curiously asked: "Senior Brother, what is this?"

Zhang Su was the first to clap and say: "This is a fine thing, named Spirit Light Mirror. As long as you inject your own spiritual power, you can freely check the transaction prices of spirit plants in the immortal sect that day. One mirror costs 30 middle-grade spirit stones!"

Upon hearing it cost thirty middle-grade spirit stones, the three people beside them all stared wide-eyed.

Xu Zhangqing even held it with both hands, then bowed again: "Thank you, Senior Brother!"

Li Sancai waved his hand: "No need for courtesy."

Xu Zhangqing pointed inside the house and said: "Senior Brother, inside……"

Before he finished speaking, a flying paper crane drifted from afar, on which stood three people who made Xu Zhangqing, Hu Bugui, and Zhao Ziyue all feel extremely surprised!!!
