" This , Brother Li I can't accept this " A 3 star weapon can be seen on Su Li's hand it was shining ever bright . This is a sword that Su Li achieved after killing Shao Xun it was one of his favorite sword . "

Su Li stares at Ma Gang eyes " Ma Gang you have done so much for me and we are like brothers I want to give you this and a sword technique so that you can ascend higher ,I don't want to leave you in the dust . " Ma Gang teared " Brother Li I will do my best tom meet your expectations."

Su Li gave Ma Gang a pat on his head even is Ma Gang was 6 inches taller , " Ma Gang I will now impart you with a sword technique if you can master even 1/4 of this you will be unstoppable even capable of going toe to toe with the prodigal geniuses . " Ma Gang gave him a nod . " I will no start carefully listen to all my words it is now up to you if you will be capable of understanding "

Ma Gang paid closed attention not wanting to miss a single sentence as he listen to Su Li's words , seconds later countless profound words entered his ears and into his minds .

Ma Gang was speechless and sweating at the same time .

minutes passed by ..

Ma Gang was sweating heavily after having to understand such complex words. Su Li stared at him " Now go on and practice remember not to pass it on to anyone ." Ma Gang nodded and with his new sword he started practicing the way of the sword. Su Li gave a brief sigh .

It was dark , Su Li was about to enter his room when an unexpected visitor arrived .

" Elder " Su Li saw the elder coming , the elder walked up to him he has a smile in his face like seeing his master after a long trip . Su Li also noticed that his elder has made a breakthrough Su Li cupped his hands " Congratulations elder for making it to the master realm "

The elder stared at him and smiled " your pills are amazing I've never expected that it would work so well ,as promised I won't tell it to anyone and I will reward you with this " The elder handed a bag of spiritual stones .

Su Li took it with gratitude " Thank you elder " ,The elder stared at him " Do you have anymore ? " The elder said . Su Li smiled " elder I have already sold almost all of it I don't have anymore"

The elder's smile turned upside down but he did not blame Su Li . Just as he was planning on leaving" But if elder wishes for more I can give you for a favor ." Su Li said with a smile .The elder's eyes lit up . " If you can give me one more I can hand you a favor of any kind."

Su Li was laughing inside " Very well I hope that elder can protect me for a year and can get me a certain ingredient ." The elder was shocked" Is that all ? " The elder said .

" That is all and if elder can bring me the same ingredients and this plant it is all I need "Su Li told him a certain plant.

The elder nodded his head " Very well , the ingredients you need I will get them done "

Su Li cupped his hands " Thank you elder ." The elder nodded and left .

Su Li headed back to his room and cultivated waiting for the last ingredient to form his first star .

Soon 3 hours has passed , and Su Li heard a knock . " Elder " Su Li saw the elder arriving . " Here you go I got your ingredients and the plant you need . The elder threw a spacial ring towards Su Li it contained all the items . Su Li once again cupped his fist " Thank you elder " The elder nodded his head and left .

At Su Li's room their was a large couldron in the middle . " I better get to work "

Su Li lit the couldron with his Qi forming dense amount of fire , scattering the ingredients he bought from the auction inside . He controlled the flames and the ingredients to perfection not making a single mistake .

10 minutes passed the couldron was emitting tremendous amount of Qi , Su Li was also sweating heavily , as he open the couldron 1 golden pill flew to the air . Su Li caught it and started digesting it . " Here it goes " suddenly tremendous amount of Qi arrived inside Su Li's meridians feriocusly moving around like a tidal tsunami . Su Li was coughing out numerous amount of blood .

2 hours passed , Su Li's face was flusttering , his body was sweaty and their were blood scattered everywere , but Su Li was stronger inside . As the 1st star continue to form , another several minutes passed ...

Su Li opened his eyes and a large amount of Qi was released to the atmosphere . " I did it " Su Li completed his first star he's cultivation has reached the 8th stage a massive rise of 3 stages he was now a peak foundation establishment realm cultivator . With the additional star he's strenght is capable of going toe to toe with warrior realms , disciple realms are a piece of cake while those masters if they are on the beginning stage he can manage .

Su Li was delighted after the formation of his first star . After a while he also started refining the pills for the elder .

The next day .... News of Shao Xun's and Gong Xun's death has surfaced , and several high ranking elders of the Xun family arrived . Searching for the murderer , of course it would be difficult after all Su Li burned their corspes . So the only thing they could do was ask the auction house, but Cao Min was reluctant to say anything .

Su Li heard a knock .. Xia Rong was outside her face was flustered after the benefits she recieved from the pills . Xia Rong has made it to the 3rd stage of the foundation establishment realm . It would have taken her several years, but with the pill it only took her a couple of days . Su Li arrived at the doorway , Xia Rong stared at him and gave him a hug she also told him about her improvements . " Thats amazing " Su Li patted her head , " We should go check Ma Gang " Xia Rong nodded her head .

Ma Gang was practicing on top of a hill , he was sweating and had a blindfold on . When he sensed Su Li and Xia Rong arriving he stopped and took his blindfold off. " Brother, sister "

Su Li was impressed Ma Gang was emitting a stronger Qi and their were countless of leaves that were cut into two perfectly . " Brother Li I have managed to achieve the first state thanks to your help ." Ma Gang cupped his fist .

Xia Rong was a bit confused but was happy for Ma Gang " Ma Gang what stage have you reached ?"

Ma Gang stared at both Xia Rong and Ma Gang " I've broken through to the Foundation realm after I mastered the first stage ." Xia Rong was surprised, but Su Li anticipated it . " congratulations we can all take the inner court disciple test . "

Ma Gang nodded his head , Looking at Su Li's answer . " Indeed that would be a great choice "

Su Li and Co. decided to head to the elder to gain his approval first .
