Chapter 2602

Zhu Zhibin’s appearance had transformed significantly. Previously, entering the Qi Condensation stage had made him look like a man in his thirties or forties. Now, with the successful Foundation Establishment, he underwent another rebirth. He looked to be in his early twenties. Unless some special accident occurred in the future, this would be his appearance as a cultivator.

"Seeing Zhibin like this reminds me of her in her twenties," Zhu Yanyi said to Yan Aohan. "Her looks are similar, but back then, she had a youthful naivety. Now, she has the charm of a mature man." She paused, then added, "I understand why she had a second marriage. With her current look, it is easy to attract people. So, a second marriage is not surprising at all."

Zhu Zhibin’s youthful appearance was mixed with the mature charm of someone who had experienced hardships. This combination of youth and maturity formed his unique appeal.

"You succeeded in Foundation Establishment so quickly?" Yu Yinuo looked shocked. "Good heavens! You said you awakened your talent after a hundred years. Are you lying to me?"

"Why would I lie about this? I really didn’t awaken it long ago," Zhu Zhibin said, seeing her reaction.

"You are trying to anger us, those of us with better talent who have been cultivating for so long," Yu Yinuo complained. "It took me twenty years from drawing Qi into my body to successfully establishing my foundation. That was considered fast."

Wen Jianjue also spoke up. "It took me thirty years." He continued, "Even our Sword Sect’s senior brother, a natural genius, took ten years to succeed in Foundation Establishment."

Seeing their accusatory expressions, Zhu Zhibin spoke slowly. "Perhaps it is because I came from the mortal realm."

"Is that a reason?" Yu Yinuo pouted, muttering in dissatisfaction.

"I can’t think of any other reason," Zhu Zhibin said. "If there is another reason, it is that I have a sister who is unique in the world."

Zhu Zhibin knew that her greatest advantage was Zhu Yanyi. Her medical skills were extraordinary. She adjusted her condition at every stage according to her physical reality, allowing her cultivation to advance rapidly. Additionally, her brother-in-law taught her cultivation experience one-on-one, satisfying her mental needs and making breakthroughs seem normal.

However, he didn’t know how to explain this, nor could he say it now. So, he pretended not to understand and made excuses.

"I also think it is Senior Sister Zhu’s merit," Yu Yinuo said, looking at Zhu Yanyi. After a moment, she added, "Senior Sister Zhu, I want to establish my foundation soon too."

Zhu Yanyi glanced at Yu Yinuo. "Your cultivation is already very fast. You have reached the peak of Qi Condensation. With the right opportunity, you can establish your foundation."

"Then I am still a bit slower than Junior Brother Zhu," Yu Yinuo said. "Senior Sister Zhu, can’t you give me special training?"

"Special training?" Zhu Yanyi looked at Yu Yinuo, then shook her head slightly. "I cannot give you special training. But if you sincerely want it, ask my husband."

Yan Aohan’s lips curled up slightly. He looked at Yu Yinuo. "Are you sure you want special training? If so, I can provide it. But my training is very harsh. Of course, if you can persist, it will benefit you in the future. I just wonder if you dare."

"I dare," Yu Yinuo said seriously. "I will participate in the special training. Naturally, my senior brother will accompany me."

Well, brothers help each other in fighting tigers. At this moment, Yu Yinuo’s affection for her senior brother was evident.

Hearing Yu Yinuo’s words, Wen Jianjue could only force a smile. "Yes, I have been stuck at the peak of the Golden Core stage recently. To successfully form a Nascent Soul, I need more experience. If special training is available, I am willing to join."

Yan Aohan looked at Yu Yinuo, then at Wen Jianjue. He turned to Zhu Zhibin. "Zhibin, you join too. Whether I herd one sheep or three, it’s the same for me."

"Okay," Zhu Zhibin agreed immediately.

Yan Aohan nodded. "Rest today. Tomorrow morning, I will take you out for special training."

Yan Aohan had many methods for special training. As long as they could persist, it would be very beneficial for them.

Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly. She did not interfere with how Yan Aohan trained the three of them. However, she brewed a bowl of medicinal liquid for them every day. When they returned, each would drink a bowl and then return to their rooms to meditate.

Yan Aohan’s special training included all sorts of strange and difficult tasks. With the assistance of Zhu Yanyi’s medicinal liquid, Yu Yinuo successfully established her foundation on the ninth day of the training, returning to the ranks of cultivators.

Twelve days later, Wen Jianjue also successfully formed his Nascent Soul.

Forming a Nascent Soul was different from Foundation Establishment. Although the tribulation clouds for Foundation Establishment looked numerous, they were ordinary. However, when forming a Nascent Soul, the tribulation clouds would eventually emit five-colored light, indicating another successful Nascent Soul formation.

However, forming a Nascent Soul carried risks. For example, some envious people might come to cause trouble. Fortunately, with Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan present, Wen Jianjue’s process was effortless. People only realized someone had succeeded when they saw the five-colored rainbow in the sky.

Yan Aohan had chosen a primitive forest in the cultivation world for Wen Jianjue’s tribulation, so no one knew who had succeeded.

However, this was not hidden from the Sword Sect. Mainly, Wen Jianjue sent a message to the sect immediately after his success.

The Sword Sect’s Sect Master was shocked upon hearing the news. He naturally knew that Wen Jianjue had been stuck at the peak of the Golden Core stage due to his inability to break through his mental state. Originally, even if he were to form a Nascent Soul, there would be signs. These signs would allow him to suppress the process slightly, return to the sect for seclusion, and then form the Nascent Soul under the protection of many people, at least the elders, in a safe environment.

But now, there were no signs. He had succeeded, and it seemed there was no danger at all. The problem was, the only guardians were Yan Aohan and his wife. No, according to Wen Jianjue, only Yan Aohan guarded him. And this guarding result was more effective than the Sword Sect sending out several elders.

"He'er, we owe them a huge favor now," the Sword Sect Sect Master said seriously to Baili He.
