“Did you have a conflict with Sister Li?”

Upon seeing Xu Mu returning, Ye Yingying quickly asked.

Lan Shijin, who was holding Little Ling’er, also looked over.

No!

Xu Mu shook his head and then sincerely said to Ye Yingying: “Don’t keep in touch with her in the future!”

He did not want his wife to be influenced by her.

“Oh!”

Ye Yingying nodded her head.

She wasn’t a naive child. Just by hearing the commotion, she knew what Li Moqing had done.

She just couldn’t understand, how could Li Moqing change so much in just over a month.

She didn’t know if Li Moqing had given up or this was her true nature, now without a partner, she was letting loose.

Seeing Ye Yingying agreed, Xu Mu did not say anything more since Lan Shijin was still here.

Lan Shijin had only met Li Moqing a few times and was not too familiar with her.

And discussing such matters wasn’t really appropriate.

After coaxing Little Ling’er for a while, Lan Shijin began to set up the formation in the room. She had all the necessary materials, so Xu Mu didn’t need to buy anything else.

As evening approached, it started raining. Xu Mu, holding an oilpaper umbrella, sent Lan Shijin to the entrance of the marketplace before returning home alone under his umbrella.

Picking her up in the morning and taking her back at night, this went on for three days. The Spirit Gathering Array was finally set up.

After settling the bill for the Spirit Stones and having dinner together at his home, Xu Mu sent her off to the entrance of the marketplace and they said their goodbyes.

Even though the formation was set up, Xu Mu thought life would return to quiet cultivation, but things didn’t go as planned.

The next day after the Spirit Gathering Array was set up, a few Qi Cultivation Late-Stage cultivators who were originally inspecting the entrance of the marketplace, led by the Tooth People, began searching the slum area.

To avoid arousing suspicion, Xu Mu had to destroy the formation again and hide all his valuable items.

Thankfully, the cultivators were not ruthless this time. They only searched around the house, made sure no one was hiding and then left.

But Xu Mu was so angry he felt chest pains!

The formation he just set up!

Even though it didn’t take many Spirit Stones, it was still money!

After the search team left, Xu Mu did not immediately go to find Lan Shijin.

He was truly afraid they’d come again, at which point he might break down crying.

After seven or eight days, once he was sure the storm had completely passed, Xu Mu finally went to the marketplace to find Lan Shijin again.

Seeing Xu Mu constantly destroying the formation and then asking her to set it up again, Lan Shijin started to wonder:

Did Xu Mu have some kind of idea?

Even Leng Yuening’s gaze towards him was a bit off!

Xu Mu could only give a bitter smile.

He didn’t want this either!

But what if an accident happens?

Destroying the formation was only a waste of Spirit Stones, but if someone found out, it could cost him his life.

With Xu Mu’s personality, he was not willing to take such risks just for some Spirit Stones.

Luckily, Lan Shijin didn’t say much and still agreed to help him set up the formation.

But this time, Xu Mu made a new request.

“Friend Lan, could you help me set up a formation that can be adjusted?”

He had enough Spirit Stones now.

If possible, he hoped to convert these Spirit Stones into power.

He had enough elixirs for now, the ones he stole from Luo Xu hadn’t been used yet, so he could only work on the aspect of enhancing his Spiritual Energy.

“It’s possible! But the materials required will be much more expensive, and it will take seven or eight days!”

“Time and materials are not problems!”

Xu Mu simply agreed.

His reaction left Lan Shijin somewhat surprised.

Lan Shijin found that she increasingly couldn’t see through this once ordinary neighbor.

To make the formation easier and cheaper, Lan Shijin rented the room next to Xu Mu again.

As for leaving by boat, Lan Shijin was furious when brought up.

Originally, her friend only made verbal excuses, but recently, he shut his doors and refused to see her.

The Spirit Stones she spent initially were wasted, and she even lost a friend.

Now, she just wanted the war to end as soon as possible.

Time flew by!

Eight days later, the formation was completed.

“Friend Xu, as per your requirements, the highest consumption per day can be raised to a hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones! If you want to increase it further, you will need to find another Array Master!” Lan Shijin said.

“That’s enough! Thank you for your hard work, Friend Lan!” Xu Mu said with a smile.

“You’re too polite, Friend Xu!”

She was paid for her work. It wasn’t hard at all.

On the contrary, she should thank Xu Mu for giving her such a big order.

Ordinary families could not afford to hire an Array Master to set up formations.

After settling the bill, Lan Shijin said goodbye and left. However, Xu Mu could not wait to enter the formation and test it out.

The whole Spirit Gathering Array consisted of six formation pillars and a formation compass the size of a round table. When activated, it formed a semi-circular light screen that was ten feet high and twenty feet wide, covering the whole bedroom.

On the formation compass, there were grooves for embedding Spirit Stones. By placing the Spirit Stones in these grooves, the formation would continue to run.

If the Spirit Stones were exhausted and not replenished in time, the runes on the pillars would shatter and need to be redrawn, and the pillars themselves would also be damaged.

The compass had hundreds of grooves. The more Spirit Stones embedded, the stronger the power of the formation.

Xu Mu took out hundreds and quickly filled all the grooves.

The runes flashed, the invisible spiritual power spread out, and the formation was officially activated!

If Lan Shijin was here, she would probably be surprised and widen her eyes.

Although she was the one who set up the formation, she had never imagined that Xu Mu would be so extravagant.

Once the spirit stones are embedded and connected to the formation, they cannot be removed.

What she didn’t know was that Xu Mu never planned to use the original gathering spirit formation that consumed ten spirit stones per day.

Although the search storm had passed, Xu Mu always had a feeling of unease, so he wanted to increase his strength again in a short period.

There was no way to improve his skills, so he had to work hard on his cultivation.

What does it feel like to consume a hundred spirit stones a day in the gathering spirit formation?

Xu Mu will tell you!

With one word-

Cool!

When he started absorbing spiritual power, it poured in like a flood.

Originally, he could only improve two or three points a day, but now he can improve by a dozen or twenty points a day, almost ten times the original rate.

If you add in the assistance of pills, it’s like riding a rocket.

Every moment, Xu Mu could feel the increase in his cultivation.

In just half a month, he had reached the fifth level; 377/600!

Xu Mu suspected that in another half a month, he could break through to the sixth level of Qi Cultivation.

Such a rate of progress would make even the direct descendants of the Foundation Establishment families want to overtake him.

Meanwhile, the rate at which spirit stones were consumed was enough to scare any ordinary person.

In half a month, just the consumption of the formation was 1,500 lower-grade spirit stones, and if you count the money for setting up the formation, it was almost 2,000.

And this is just the basics!

Don’t forget that he has to take pills every day!

Especially the Qi Boosting Pills and Soul Accumulating Pills he found from Luo Xu, which are all very valuable, along with the Qi Gathering Pills and Jade Marrow Pills he made himself.

They won’t change for less than 3,000 lower-grade spirit stones!

He’s just burning money!

Under this terrifying act of burning money, he did not break through, but Ye Yingying did.

She reached the third level of Qi Cultivation!

Less than twenty years old and at the third level of Qi Cultivation!

This rate of progress was not only unexpected for Ye Yingying herself, but also astonished Lan Shijin.

After all, her daughter Leng Yuening had exceptional talent and had been training since childhood, but at this age, she only reached the third level of Qi Cultivation, which may be later than Ye Yingying.

If this was all, it would not be surprising.

The key is that Ye Yingying’s original talent was very poor, and whether she could break through to the mid-stage of Qi Cultivation in her lifetime was unknown, but now she suddenly progressed rapidly.

According to this rate of progress, she even has the chance to establish a foundation in the future.

This made Lan Shijin become very curious about Xu Mu, because she knows that all of this is Xu Mu’s credit.

But she is a smart person, although she is curious in her heart, she hasn’t overstepped and inquired, she is just a bit more enthusiastic than before.

With the breakthrough in cultivation, it’s natural to celebrate properly.

So throughout the night, little Ling’er was woken up several times!

Every time she woke up, she saw daddy bullying mommy, who was already in tears, and he still wouldn’t let go!

That’s terrible!

Little Ling’er hit the bed with her little hand, crying out in a frenzy.

Fortunately, mommy finally fought back and knocked down daddy, now it was daddy’s turn to be beaten!

Little Ling’er clapped her hands happily.

Until dawn, when the two stopped fighting, little Ling’er finally fell into a deep sleep in exhaustion.

The little heart made a vow to never let daddy bully mommy after she grows up.

Time went by in this rapid improvement, fluttering away in a flash.

Half a month later…

Xu Mu’s cultivation successfully reached:

[fifth level; 599/600]!

After failing to break through for two consecutive days, Xu Mu quickly brought the Gathering Spirit array back to ten spirit stones per day.

Through spending money, it is indeed possible to rapidly increase cultivation, but at the same time, when it comes to breaking through the bottleneck, it is much more difficult than normal cultivators who have increased at a normal rate.

This is because the foundation is not solid enough.

Xu Mu didn’t mind.

It’s a necessary price to pay!

Just grind it out for a few more days!

With the arrival of the bottleneck, Xu Mu began to significantly reduce his training time and squeeze out more time to refine pills.

After all, he promised Su Qing that the quantity of pills would be increased by thirty percent this time.

Regarding his inquiry, Su Qing has already given a response. The other party agreed, but they would only give him the news after the pill exchange.

There were no accidents during the transaction, Xu Mu got the news he wanted, and the other party got the pills they wanted.

It’s just that Su Qing was inevitably surprised at his physical changes, much like Lan Shijin.

Bright sunlight spilled through the windows, brightly illuminating the room.

Xu Mu was sitting at the large table in the hall, carefully reading the book in his hands. On the corner of the table, a bright purple iris that Ye Yingying found somewhere was placed in a vase.

The book was given to him by Su Qing, the words were delicate and beautiful, with an aristocratic lady’s taste, it must have been written by a young woman. Nêww 𝒄hapters will be fully updated at (n)ov(𝒆)l/bin(.)com

The book contained information on all the Foundation Establishment families in BaiFang City.

“There are seven Foundation Establishment families in White Stone City, which are Lv, Zhang, Chen, Luo, Yan, Song, Chi….”
