Chapter 114: Hope
Five Elements Gate, Outer Gate.
"Have you heard, Senior Brother Li Moran of the Musheng Sect actually succeeded in building the foundation yesterday!" A group of disciples were surrounding a disciple, listening to him shake his head, foaming at the mouth, and his expression was extremely excited.
"Li Moran has succeeded in building a foundation, how is this possible, a month ago, his strength was not as good as mine, how can he succeed in building a foundation now, are you mistaken!" A disciple said with a strange expression.
"There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, this is the reliable news I got from the inner gate, and even many senior brothers and sisters in the inner gate think it's very incredible!" the disciple immediately explained with a red face.
"In a month's time, from the middle stage of Qi refining to the early stage of foundation building, this speed is simply incredibly fast, the millennium of the Five Elements Sect Creation Sect, this kind of thing is rare, how did Senior Brother Li Moran do it, and only Senior Brother Zhang Xiaomai, who was promoted to the inner gate some time ago, can compare with it. Another disciple sighed.
"But do you know what the relationship between Senior Brother Li Moran and Senior Brother Zhang Xiaomai is, they are from the same family, they are the most iron brothers, it is said that the reason why Li Moran was able to build the foundation successfully this time is because of Senior Brother Zhang Xiaomai, it is Senior Brother Zhang Xiaomai who used a very special cultivation method to make Senior Brother Li Moran successfully promoted, so this time Senior Brother Li Moran can build a successful foundation, and Senior Brother Zhang Xiaomai has made great contributions. "That disciple is very gossipy, mysterious and mysterious.
"It turned out to be the reason for Senior Brother Zhang Xiaomai, Senior Brother Zhang Xiaomai can actually make people build a foundation successfully, what kind of cultivation method is that?" a disciple glared at and exclaimed.
"We don't know about this, it is estimated that it is the unique secret of Senior Brother Zhang Xiaomai. The disciple looked at the direction of the inner gate of the Five Elements Gate, and said with a look of fascination, drooling, "If I can get in touch with Senior Brother Xiaomai now, wouldn't it be possible to build a successful foundation, enter the inner gate, be feared by you, trample you under your feet, and become an elite disciple in the Five Elements Gate?"
To be able to build a successful foundation and enter the inner gate is the dream of every outer disciple of the Five Elements Sect, but after all, there are only a few who can achieve it, and now Zhang Xiaomai can not only enter the inner door himself, but also make other outer disciples succeed in building a foundation, which is not only incredible in the eyes of other outer disciples.
"It's up to you, cut ......" all the disciples despised together, "Can you meet Senior Brother Xiaomai, it is not necessary to say a word, let alone pull the relationship, not to mention that you don't pee and take care of yourself, see what kind of virtue you are, whether it is the material that builds the foundation!"
The disciple's face turned red immediately.
...... The inner door of the Five Elements Gate also held a grand entrance ceremony for Li Moran, as the "culprit" who could make Li Moran successfully build the foundation, Zhang Xiaomai naturally gladly went to accompany him.
Along the way, Li Moran was so excited that he was urinating.
"Maizi, I actually succeeded in building the foundation, I actually succeeded, how is this possible, am I dreaming, my piece of material can actually build the foundation?" Li Moran looked at his hands with tears in his eyes, and sent out countless attacks with the power of building the foundation, but he still seemed to be a little disbelieving in his eyes.
But the abundant aura in the sea of qi told him that everything was real and there was no falsehood.
"Wow, Maizi, I, Li Moran, actually have today, it's so cool!" Li Moran jumped onto a flying sword and flew around excitedly in mid-air.
"I, Li Moran, have finally succeeded in building the foundation!"
"Inner door, I'm coming!"
"Lao Tzu is finally an elite disciple......"
"Lin Feihu, you wait, Lao Tzu has to beat you into a pig's head!"
In mid-air, a big black fat man looked up to the sky and roared, fierce and fierce.
Holding a pot of immortal wine in his hand, he poured a big sip into his mouth, and a spicy meaning immediately soaked his entire stomach, which was really enjoyable! Originally, Zhang Xiaomai rarely drank alcohol, but now he was very happy, and as soon as the interest arrived, he ran to Master Li Jinjiu and stole a pot of wine.
"Hmph, sunspot, it's going to be fine, when you cultivate, you howl like killing a pig, I'm ashamed of you when I hear it!" Zhang Xiaomai said in a disdainful tone, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Li Moran immediately fell from mid-air, and it took a long time for him to get up from the ground, "Maizi, you can't mention something about my shame, now I'm almost a member of the elite of the inner gate, and you can't save some face if you are the object that everyone looks up to." β
"You have a skin as thick as a city wall, and you still use me to save face for you?" Zhang Xiaomai shrugged his shoulders and said.
"To be precise, we are also inner disciples with status now, so I don't bother to fight with you for this kind of tongue benefit. Li Moran said very stinkyly.
"You should consolidate the realm, don't be happy too early, progress too fast, but fall back to the original level, our Five Elements Sect is not unprecedented. Zhang Xiaomai wasted no time in reminding Li Moran.
"I heard that in the history of our Five Elements Sect, there is a saying that cultivation is improperly downgraded, for example, that Baishan who competed with you before, but my situation is completely different, I have never heard of your big vat of elixir, and the conditions of Baishan cannot be compared with you, besides, this is a complete qualitative leap for me, and the aura in my body is now extremely stable, so in me, it will never happen like that." Li Moran shook his head and said triumphantly.
Zhang Xiaomai saw Li Moran's smug look, as if he opened his mouth to hit him a few more words.
But at this time, Li Moran changed his grinning tone, suddenly changed his expression, sat up from the ground with a solemn face, his eyes burned, and he stared at Zhang Xiaomai.
Isn't his head confused, Zhang Xiaomai suddenly said to himself.
"Hey, Kuroko, are you okay?" Zhang Xiaomai hurriedly asked.
Li Moran didn't speak, he looked at Zhang Xiaomai for a long time, and there seemed to be some tears in the corners of his eyes.
"Hey, Heizi, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Xiaomai couldn't help but be stunned, could it be that he succeeded in building the foundation, and he was stupidly excited?
It's just that at this time, I suddenly saw Li Moran facing him squarely, and said seriously, "Maizi, this time, thank you very much!"
What are you talking about, Zhang Xiaomai's heart was flushed, don't you treat me as a brother, and say something thanks.
saw Li Moran wave his hand and stopped Zhang Xiaomai from speaking, "Maizi, don't talk yet, listen to me finish speaking." β
Li Moran took a deep breath, "For a long time, I thought that it was impossible for me to succeed in building a foundation in this life, because with my qualifications, it was just very common in the entire Five Elements Gate, and people like me were too many not only in the cultivation realm, but also in the Five Elements Gate." β
"In this world, there are many dreams, but there are very few things that can be realized, at first I was the same as those disciples, I was full of ambition to be selected from the ranks of mortals into the Five Elements Gate, eager to be able to get ahead, become an elite disciple in the door, become a master, and then become an elder, become the master, and finally be able to be majestic in the cultivation world, amazed by the wind and clouds, what a beautiful dream, but after we entered the Five Elements Gate, we found that the reality was so difficult, this dream was quickly shattered.
"The immortal road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the blue sky, some people, all their lives are stuck in the early stage of qi refining, unable to move forward, can only be a miscellaneous servant that everyone looks down on, old and dead in the mountain gate, some people, although stronger than most people, can even be promoted to one or two levels, and make some progress, but they are also unable to break through the threshold of qi refining, and finally end up depressed in the mountain gate, and some people, because of the hopelessness of promotion, have no choice but to give up their dreams, return to the mortal world, give up cultivating immortals, and be a mediocre mortal again, a hundred years later, it is still a pile of loessγ β
Thinking about it, the result should be like this, otherwise, wouldn't it be a situation where the disciples of Zhuji are running all over the ground. Li Moran sighed, and seemed to be a little stunned, "Only a very small number of disciples with outstanding talents can build a successful foundation, enter the inner gate, and become the inner disciples who are high in the eyes of everyone, dominating the life and death of those outer disciples. β
"Originally, I was just like those mediocre outer disciples, and the path was just to die old and die or return to the mortal world, and the final result was just a pile of loess. Cultivating immortals, cultivating immortals, but cultivating is not hope, but despair, this is the helpless ending of reality. Li Moran continued.
"At first, I was also very unwilling to accept this kind of ending, I had struggled hard, but it was useless, although I practiced hard, I was promoted to the middle stage of foundation building, but it ended here, no matter how hard I tried, the threshold of foundation building is still far away from me, even if I work hard, it will be useless, even if there is no sign of shrinkage, as time goes by, I have given up my dream, I even think that maybe I should go back to the mortal world, after all, back there, with the strength of the middle stage of qi refining, I can also be regarded as a master, I can live a few years of leisureγ β
"But, at this time, Maizi, you suddenly succeeded!" Li Moran's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Although I don't know how you succeeded, but you are like a miracle, first beating Bai Hao, then promoted from the early stage of Qi refining to the middle stage of Qi refining, and soon from the middle stage of Qi refining to the late stage of Qi refining, defeating Bai Shan, a recognized master in the outer gate, and finally succeeded in building the foundation, entered the inner gate, and now it is even more amazing to reach the point of the middle stage of foundation building!"
"The Five Elements Sect has been established for so long, and no one has ever progressed as fast as you, but although you are a miracle, it makes me feel that I am not as far away as those geniuses. Li Moran said, "Because you have always been by my side, I have always felt that my cultivation talent is actually better than yours." β
"You gave me hope like a meteor, I thought I would never be able to build a foundation for a lifetime, but after seeing your successful example, I suddenly felt in my heart that since you can succeed, then I should also be able to succeed, and I have hope in my heart again. β
"That's it, you made me give up the idea of returning to the mortal world and stay again......" Speaking of this, Li Moran scratched his head a little embarrassed, "Actually, I have always been a little unconvinced by you in my heart, and I still want to compare with you, since you can build a foundation, I should also have a chance, but now it seems that I am too far from you kid, aside from the cultivation talent, the ruthlessness of cultivation alone is far inferior, Maizi, I admire you from the bottom of my heart." β
"Some people may think that I am stupid, I have been cultivating immortals for so many years, what dreams, hope, these things should not be something we think about at all, it should have been realistic a long time ago, to achieve some easy goals, but I always feel, Maizi, you and I are the same kind of people, you and I both have dreams in our hearts, although we have ordinary qualifications, but we also have the right to dream, and we are successful now!"
