Chapter 72: Who

Ye Xiuxiu sat cross‑legged inside the house,

and Bai Qingxia quietly guarded beside her,

determined not to let anyone disturb Ye Xiuxiu,

Outside,

Ye Songzhi and Li Dongxia were there, providing protection,

Within the Ye Family, almost no one could interrupt Ye Xiuxiu's Foundation Building,

Bai Qingxia was genuinely afraid that Liu Yuesong would come and set a trap for Ye Xiuxiu.

She warned in advance,

as long as Ye Xiuxiu had not completed the Foundation Building,

even if Ye Songzhi and Li Dongxia entered, she would still attack without hesitation.

Even the Jinhua cat was thrown out.

Inside Ye Xiuxiu, the Hongmeng Creation Scripture was wildly circulating,

the Foundation-Building Completion Pill was swallowed into her abdomen,

a surge of turbulent and surging energy rapidly exploded within Ye Xiuxiu,

continuously converging toward Ye Xiuxiu's dantian,

Ye Xiuxiu was not exerting any particular force,

under the effect of the Foundation-Building Completion Pill, the Foundation Building was already close to success.

Only then did Ye Xiuxiu truly grasp what "Foundation‑Building Completion" means,

Ye Xiuxiu gently closed her eyes, legs crossed,

quietly sitting upright on the cushion inside the house.

Her posture was elegant and dignified,

like a lotus bud about to bloom, exuding a tranquil and harmonious aura.

And beside her, Bai Qingxia was like a loyal guard,

quietly standing watch.

She was fully focused, paying attention to any movement around,

absolutely refusing to let any sound or disturbance affect Ye Xiuxiu at this critical moment of Foundation Building.

That concentrated expression seemed as if the whole world contained only Ye Xiuxiu before her.

Outside, Ye Songzhi and Li Dongxia stood on opposite sides,

tightly guarding the house.

Their gazes were sharp as hawks, vigilantly scanning the surroundings,

missing no corner where an anomaly might appear.

Within the Ye Family, almost everyone knew that Ye Xiuxiu's Foundation Building at this moment was of utmost importance,

no one dared to disturb her lightly.

Originally, the two thought it unnecessary,

who would waste time to risk offending someone in the Body Integration Stage just to stop a Qi Refining Stage Foundation Building,

but when Bai Qingxia told them that Ye Ruyan had once tried to kill Ye Xiuxiu,

the two's mindset instantly changed,

Bai Qingxia always harbored a worry about Liu Yuesong in her heart,

so she said it in advance; however, Bai Qingxia also made them agree that the matter must be resolved after Ye Qingping's seclusion ends.

Moreover, Bai Qingxia uttered a harsh warning,

as long as Ye Xiuxiu has not completed the Foundation Building,

even if Ye Songzhi and Li Dongxia rashly broke in,

she would launch an attack without mercy!

Even the ever‑pampered Jinhua cat,

was mercilessly thrown out the door.

At this moment, the Hongmeng Creation Scripture inside Ye Xiuxiu was wildly circulating at an astonishing speed.

The exceedingly precious Foundation-Building Completion Pill had been swallowed into her abdomen,

In an instant,

a torrent of surging, boundless, powerful energy burst within her like a breached dam.

This energy raged wildly yet seemed to follow some mysterious pattern and guidance,

continuously converging toward Ye Xiuxiu's dantian.

What is astonishing is that,

although Ye Xiuxiu did not exert her full strength to guide and control this massive energy,

yet under the miraculous effect of the Foundation-Building Completion Pill,

the Foundation Building process turned out surprisingly smooth.

Seeing that success was only a step away,

Ye Xiuxiu finally deeply comprehended the true meaning behind the words "Foundation‑Building Completion".

Under the impact of that unmatched, overwhelming force,

not even a human,

even if an ordinary dog were brought in at this moment,

It would probably be easy to complete Foundation Building.

Suddenly, a dazzling, eye‑catching golden light burst forth from Ye Xiuxiu's body,

enveloping her entirely.

At the same time, as Ye Xiuxiu manifested the afterimage of Military Body Fist, it flickered and floated continuously over her surface.

If anyone were to come a little closer,

they could even occasionally hear deafening thunderclaps,

as well as the measured, solemn and reverent recitation of Words of the Saints,

various forces intermingling within,

At this moment, all the forces converged like countless streams flowing into the sea,

rushing toward Ye Xiuxiu's dantian.

Ye Xiuxiu, who was already on the verge of successfully completing Foundation Building,

found herself further empowered by this mighty force, as if a tiger had gained wings.

Not only did it make her foundation even more solid and firm,

but also caused the amount of spiritual energy her dantian could store to expand rapidly at this moment, like a balloon being inflated.

Onefold, twofold, threefold…

Finally, Ye Xiuxiu successfully completed Foundation Building.

Bai Qingxia, who had been closely watching all of this, saw the scene,

and couldn't help but let a look of satisfied joy appear on her face.

However, just as she was about to let out a sigh,

and slightly relax her tense nerves,

she suddenly noticed that Ye Xiuxiu's Foundation Building process did not seem to halt there,

but rather seemed poised for an unprecedented second Foundation Building!

At this moment, Ye Xiuxiu also felt the same,

just when she thought everything would cease,

she was astonished to find that the Foundation Building process had not stopped.

On the contrary,

the already surging spiritual energy intensity surged again,

as if it were endless.

This was due to the overwhelming amount of spiritual energy contained in the Foundation‑Building Pill.

Bai Qingxia, who had been watching the entire scene from beside, looked at everything with a startled expression, thinking to herself:

"What on earth is happening?"

But before she could understand,

the second Foundation Building had already been successfully completed.

Just as Bai Qingxia thought it was over,

the third Foundation Building immediately began,

followed by the fourth, the fifth… the Foundation Building process unfolded continuously like a relay race,

repeatedly striking Bai Qingxia's cognitive limits.

Until Ye Xiuxiu, in one breath, performed Foundation Building nine times consecutively!

Only then did the last trace of spiritual energy from the Foundation‑Building Pill become completely exhausted,

At this moment, Bai Qingxia was already numb,

She had never before witnessed such a sight in her life.

To know,

who in the world would perform Foundation Building nine times in a row?

Could it be that this is Foundation Building layer one, layer two, all the way to layer nine?

Yet she clearly saw that Ye Xiuxiu's cultivation still remained at the early stage of the Foundation Building phase.

In this cultivation world,

only cultivators at the Qi Refining Stage,

have their cultivation finely divided into layers one through ten,

and in some special cases, even up to thirteen layers.

It should be noted that as much as ninety‑nine percent of cultivators in the world are stalled at the Qi Refining Stage,

which is why the division of Qi Refining Stage levels is so meticulous.

Beyond that, other higher cultivation levels such as the Foundation Building phase and the Golden Core Stage,

are only roughly divided into early, middle, late, and Great Perfection stages.

Although Ye Xiuxiu, on the surface,

seems to be only at the early Foundation Building stage,

however, upon close observation it is not hard to see that,
