Night time.
In celebration of Ji Bingyu, Mu Ziyi, and Xia Jingyan’s successful Foundation Establishment, Zhou Sui prepared a grand feast. The table was piled high with delicious dishes, fruits, vegetables, and exquisite spiritual wine. There was truly everything one could want.
The whole living room was filled with the tantalizing aroma of the food.
After the third round of wine.
The three ladies began to inquire about Zhou Sui’s recent days.
After all, they had been in seclusion for over a month and were curious to know if anything interesting had happened during that time.
Zhou Sui then provided them with a rough summary of the events.
“What?!”
“Those Shen family, Mu family, and Xiao family are truly detestable! They invited a bunch of Foundation Establishment cultivators but completely failed to control them, even tolerating their evil deeds. If not for you and Sister Leng’s strength, wouldn’t we be in big trouble?”
Xia Jingyan was quite angry.
She understood the danger of the situation.
Despite the Four Demons of the Mist being slain by Zhou Sui and Leng Yuexi, they possessed enough strength to defeat any late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
If not for her husband and Leng Yuexi’s formidable strength, they would have perhaps met a terrible end.
“Now that we too have become Foundation Establishment cultivators and our strength has greatly increased, why not strike back directly and eliminate these three Foundation Establishment families in revenge.”
Mu Ziyi clenched her fists.
In her opinion, with the strength of the four of them and her husband’s Soul Secret Art, dealing with these Foundation Establishment families would pose no major challenge.
“Indeed, the three Foundation Establishment families surely acted with specific intent.”
“According to husband’s earlier explanation, they are exploring a Golden Core cave dwelling.”
“Perhaps these three major Foundation Establishment families feared that Sister Leng might reap the benefits and decided to strike first to eliminate any potential threats, hence why they deliberately turned a blind eye to the Four Demons of the Mist.”
“If not for the deterrent provided by husband and Sister Leng’s actions, perhaps we would be witnessing wave after wave of incidents. We must remain vigilant.”
Ji Bingyu muttered, her analysis revealing the intentions of the three Foundation Establishment families.
“Let’s not get worked up about it.”
“These three Foundation Establishment families have countless backers. We may not necessarily be able to deal with them.”
“Moreover, you girls have only just become Foundation Establishment cultivators and have yet to consolidate your cultivation levels, so it’s not advisable to take action now.”
“Since they fear us reaping the benefits, why not just go with the flow?”
“Once they have extracted all the treasures from the Golden Core cave dwelling, we’ll catch them unprepared and seize the opportunity.”
“By then, we can take back everything, along with some extra benefits.”
Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.
While his impression of the three major Foundation Establishment families was not particularly favorable, he was not keen on taking unnecessary risks either.
If he acted hastily without absolute certainty, it might only lead to failure.
As a matter of fact, his clone and Gold Eating Bugs were lurking nearby, constantly monitoring their every move.
Not only was he doing it to guard against their possible attack, but also to identify an opportunity to strike at them.
“Take advantage of the chaos? Poach in troubled waters?”
Upon hearing this, Ji Bingyu, Xia Jingyan, and Mu Ziyi’s eyes instantly lit up.
If they were to explore the Golden Core cave dwelling, they may encounter various dangers.
But if they were to intercept the cultivators emerging from the cave dwelling, the situation would be completely different.
They would only need to deal with Foundation Establishment cultivators, not any lingering traps left by Golden Core Masters.
The risk factor would be greatly reduced.
“But those Foundation Establishment cultivators are not fools either. I’m afraid that once they’ve seized the treasures from the Golden Core cave dwelling, they’ll flee immediately.” Leng Yuexi brought up this point.
“Don’t worry, they won’t be able to escape.”
Zhou Sui smiled slightly.
His Clone Gu and Gold Eating Bugs were not there for no reason. No matter how they wanted to split up, they could not escape.
To be honest, he didn’t waste his time in the past month either.
Besides dual cultivating with Leng Yuexi, he had been continuously refining his alchemy skills. He had also been studying the Seven Apertures Spirit Secret and various other skills, enabling a well-rounded enhancement of his abilities.
More importantly, his Gu Insects also had a certain degree of enhancement.
Of course, during this time, people from the Shen family, the Mu family, the Xiao family, and other Foundation Establishment families had also come to visit, expressing their apologies and promising to constrain the cultivators around them from causing any disturbances.
Zhou Sui remained indifferent but refrained from any further conflict with them.
It wasn’t because he was magnanimous, but because they were sizable in number. Furthermore, it was a crucial time for his Dao partners’ Foundation Establishment, and it wasn’t appropriate to create additional problems.
Moreover, after killing the Four Demons of the Mist, the other ill-intentioned Foundation Establishment cultivators were completely deterred.
This made the area around the valley much safer, and no more scheming individuals came to snoop around.
“The husband is indeed a man of good strategizing, let’s just wait for the good news.”
Hearing this, Ji Bingyu and the others nodded in agreement.
They also felt that instead of exploring the Golden Core cave dwelling, it would be better to ambush the cultivators coming out of it.
In doing so, they could not only settle scores but also make a fortune.
It was a win-win situation.
“Husband, don’t worry about these matters. Now that we have had our fill of food and wine, don’t you want to experience the charms of Foundation Establishment women?” At this moment, Mu Ziyi looked seductively at Zhou Sui, exuding an enticing allure.
The other two also looked at him with eyes full of anticipation, apparently a little tipsy.
On the other side, Leng Yuexi’s face was flushed with embarrassment. Was this what being an old couple was like? Compared to a fledgling like herself, they were admittedly much more experienced and mature.
Hearing this, Zhou Sui could no longer restrain himself. Four Foundation Establishment women were right in front of him.
A night passed.
In that night, Zhou Sui indeed enjoyed a unique experience, so much so that he completely lost track of time and forgot himself.
After their advancement to the Foundation Establishment Realm, their stamina had greatly increased, far surpassing their abilities during the Qi Cultivation Stage.
Even though he now had the assistance of the Dragon Elephant Gu, which greatly enhanced his constitution, he barely managed to hold on, almost losing at the end.
Of course, the achievements of the night were also significant.
Suddenly, he could sense a piece of information being relayed from the Obsession Gu: “As a result of dual cultivation with your Dao partners, your Spiritual Root Aptitude has been elevated to some extent, thus your Spiritual Root has been promoted to the level of a sixth-stage Spirit Root.”
Rumble—
In that instant, Zhou Sui could feel a warm current gushing in from the Obsession Gu and his entire body went through an earth-shattering transformation.
At that moment, he astonishingly found out that his perception of the world had altered.
Not only was his cultivation aptitude improved, it seemed even his comprehension ability had been enhanced to a certain degree.
“Could it be that the level of my Spiritual Root has finally been elevated to the sixth stage?”
Zhou Sui was elated.
He had originally thought that it would take some time for his Spiritual Root Aptitude to improve.
However, after a night of dual cultivation with four Foundation Establishment women, he had broken through the final barrier, promoting his Spiritual Root to the sixth stage.
This was even more exciting for him than advancing in his own cultivation level.
After all, in the cultivation world, it’s almost impossible to upgrade one’s Spiritual Root Aptitude unless one stumbles upon some ten-thousand-year-old spiritual medicine.
The problem is that these types of spiritual medicine are beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators..
