[On the first day, after learning Mo Chen's true face, you decided to stop going to the Alchemy Hall and instead focus entirely on cultivation using the Young Supreme talent.]
[Half a year later, while you were cultivating, you sensed a presence approaching your Cave Dwelling. You knew it was Wang Hao's older brother.]
[Without hesitation, you immediately attacked and killed him.]
[By the end of the first year, through the power of the Young Supreme talent, you deduced and upgraded the Basic Qi Refining Technique into the Creation Qi Refining Technique.]
[After cultivating the Creation Qi Refining Technique, your cultivation speed increased tenfold. Moreover, the deduced cultivation technique clearly recorded the method for breaking through to the Ultimate Realm of Qi Refining.]
[At this moment, you even suspected that the Creation Qi Refining Technique was the true Qi Refining method cultivated by ancient cultivators.]
"Creation Qi Refining Technique..."
Seeing this, Su Ming narrowed his eyes slightly and continued reading.
[In the third year, after three years of cultivation, you finally broke through to the Eleventh Layer of Qi Refining. This greatly increased your confidence and made you believe even more firmly that this path was correct.]
[In the fourth year, you recalled the incident that had happened on the Back Mountain. After repeated hesitation, you decided not to meet Ye Chuxue for the time being.]
[You wanted to wait until you broke through to Foundation Establishment and successfully achieved Awakening before going to see her.]
[During this year, you earned many Spirit Stones by refining pills. Whenever you had time, you went to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion to sell your pills.]
[In the fifth year, you successfully broke through to the Twelfth Layer of Qi Refining. At this moment, you could not help but marvel at the terrifying power of the Young Supreme talent.]
[In the sixth year, you reached the Twelfth Layer of Qi Refining Great Perfection, yet you were still unable to break through to the Ultimate Realm of Qi Refining.]
[You began searching for the reason and eventually attributed the problem to your foundation.]
[Your cultivation had advanced too quickly over the past two years, causing your foundation to become unstable.]
[Coincidentally, you remembered that this year the Qingyun Sect had a mission to descend the mountain and suppress demonic cultivators.]
[Although you had not yet broken through to Foundation Establishment, you decided to go down the mountain for training in order to stabilize your foundation. This would also help you break through to the ultimate realm.]
[Soon, you arrived at the Qingyun Sect's Mission Hall and accepted the task of suppressing the remaining demonic cultivators.]
[Just as in your memory, a Senior Brother from the Inner Sect at Foundation Establishment Great Perfection led ten Outer Sect disciples at the Tenth Layer of Qi Refining down the mountain toward the Qin Kingdom.]
[Three days later, you arrived in the Qin Kingdom. According to the Inner Sect Senior Brother's plan, you surrounded a hidden residence.]
["Demonic witch, come out and face your death!"]
[After shouting angrily, the Inner Sect Senior Brother at Foundation Establishment Great Perfection rushed straight into the residence.]
[Very soon, the Inner Sect Senior Brother began fighting with Ye Chuxue. At the same time, another male demonic cultivator rushed out and was surrounded by the ten of you.]
[The demonic cultivator said to the ten of you, "I do not wish to kill you. Leave now, and I will pretend nothing happened."]
[Upon hearing this, you naturally understood what he meant. He only killed the bizarre insects, not humans. Anyone who had not yet broken through to Foundation Establishment was still considered his fellow human.]
[However, aside from you, the other nine disciples immediately drew their weapons and charged forward.]
[After more than a dozen exchanges, several Outer Sect disciples had already died, and the demonic cultivator was clearly struggling to hold on.]
[At that moment, you suddenly made your move.]
[In only a few breaths, you killed all the Qingyun Sect Outer Sect disciples.]
[The demonic cultivator looked at you in shock. He could not understand why you would do such a thing.]
["Why did you kill your fellow disciples?"]
[Hearing this, you calmly replied, "Because... I have achieved Awakening."]
[The moment those words were spoken, the demonic cultivator froze in place, staring at you with wide eyes in disbelief.]
["Impossible! Absolutely impossible! You are only at the Qi Refining stage. How could you possibly achieve Awakening?"]
[You ignored him and instead asked about Ye Chuxue's situation.]
[Sure enough, when the man heard Ye Chuxue's name, his expression darkened, and he immediately ran back into the residence.]
[Seeing this, you followed him inside.]
[When you entered the residence, you discovered that the Inner Sect Senior Brother had already fallen in a pool of blood.]
[Ye Chuxue looked at you coldly.]
["Who are you? How do you know my name? And how could someone at the Qi Refining stage possibly achieve Awakening?"]
[It was clear that the demonic cultivator had already told her about your situation.]
[Seeing this, you had no choice but to repeat the explanation you had previously given when you met Ye Chuxue during the last simulation.]
[However, Ye Chuxue clearly did not believe you.]
["You are saying that you dreamed you would die after breaking through to Foundation Establishment? Do you think I would believe such nonsense?"]
[With no other choice, you revealed that you were attempting to break through to the Ultimate Realm of Qi Refining and also disclosed that you were a Second-Grade Alchemist.]
[Ye Chuxue and the demonic cultivator stared at you in shock, as if they had seen a ghost.]
[At this point, they had begun to believe you, but they still looked at you with expressions of regret.]
["Although your method might be possible, you must understand that the Ultimate Realm of Qi Refining is merely a legend. Since the remote ancient era until now, not a single person has succeeded in reaching it."]
[You did not bother explaining further. Instead, you released the aura of the Twelfth Layer of Qi Refining Great Perfection.]
["What is this? Foundation Establishment? No... it is still Qi Refining, but the aura is even deeper than Qi Refining Great Perfection!"]
[Ye Chuxue looked at you as if you were a monster. At this moment, she completely believed that you were a true awakened person.]
[She then asked you to join the Demonic Sect, and you readily agreed.]
[Soon, you learned that the demonic cultivator's name was Lin Qi.]
[This incident had occurred because Lin Qi had unexpectedly achieved Awakening during his breakthrough to Foundation Establishment. Ye Chuxue had accidentally learned about it and came to take him away.]
[At the same time, the Qingyun Sect had received news that demonic cultivators had appeared in the Qin Kingdom, which was why they had sent people to suppress them.]
[After hearing this, you finally understood why Lin Qi, despite being an awakened Foundation Establishment cultivator, could almost be killed by Qi Refining disciples.]
[When someone first becomes an awakened cultivator after breaking through to Foundation Establishment, they suffer severe internal injuries from suppressing the bizarre insect.]
["This place is not safe. We should change locations to continue this conversation."]
[Seeing that Ye Chuxue intended to take you with them, you quickly refused.]
["Forget it. I should return to the Qingyun Sect. I will pretend to have escaped with severe injuries and spread the news that you have already left the Qin Kingdom."]
[Ye Chuxue was a clever person. The moment she heard your words, she immediately understood your meaning.]
["Very well, Junior Brother Su. We will change our residence within the Qin Kingdom. When you eventually leave the Qingyun Sect, you may come find us."]
[You nodded to Ye Chuxue and turned to leave.]
[After arriving at the foot of the Qingyun Sect mountain, you struck your chest with your palm. A mouthful of blood spurted out, and your aura instantly became weak.]
[Dragging your severely injured body, you returned to the Qingyun Sect Mission Hall and reported the situation in the Qin Kingdom.]
[After learning about the appearance of demonic cultivators, the Qingyun Sect was furious and began mobilizing even more Inner Sect disciples to hunt them down.]
