The System Arrives: Leading My Clan to Become the Strongest

25: Chapter 25 Jiang Beiyuan, Tenth Level of Qi Refiningpill canon!

Seeing that he had actually signed in and obtained a pill canon, Jiang Chen pondered; it seemed the Family truly needed to cultivate Alchemists.

Previously, the resources earned by the Jiang Family were only enough to sustain the Family’s needs, with absolutely no extra resources to train Alchemists or Weapon Refiners.

But now with Jiang Chen, everything had changed, and besides, wasn’t there a ready-made Alchemist in the Family right now!

Arriving at the main hall, it was empty at the moment; it seemed those Elders had not yet successfully made their Breakthroughs.

But Jiang Chen was in no hurry; the night had passed, so they should be coming out soon.

It was only a Breakthrough in a minor Realm, and with the assistance of Medicinal Pills, if they couldn’t succeed in one night, it could only be said that they were truly too useless, and there would be no need to consider future resource allocation.

Just as Jiang Chen thought, before long, Third Elder Jiang Lielong and Fourth Elder Jiang Haitao appeared in the main hall at the same time.

”Clan Chief.”

”Clan Chief.”

Seeing that Jiang Chen was already waiting in the main hall, the two of them hurriedly bowed.

Since Jiang Chen became the Clan Chief, it felt like a dream; their cultivation Realms changed every day, and in just a few short days, they had broken through from the Fifth Level of Qi Refining directly to the Eighth Level of Qi Refining.

Both their faces were filled with smiles?

”Mhm, since you’ve both broken through, sit down and wait for the others first.”

Jiang Chen motioned for them to sit; in this Family hall, besides a large seat at the head, there were five seats arranged on each side of the hall.

Hearing Jiang Chen’s words, the two walked to the two seats in the middle of the left side and sat down.

Not long after, the Fifth Elder strode in, walking directly into the hall.

Seeing Jiang Beiyuan’s arrival, the Third Elder and Fourth Elder both revealed a faint smile.

In their view, Jiang Beiyuan’s Breakthrough was slower than theirs, which gave them a spontaneous sense of accomplishment.

”Clan Chief.”

Jiang Beiyuan came to the center of the hall and bowed upon seeing Jiang Chen.

Seeing Jiang Beiyuan, Jiang Chen’s eyes immediately lit up. After observing closely for a moment, he said:

”Fifth Elder, you’ve broken through to the Tenth Level of Qi Refining!”

Jiang Beiyuan looked like a Mortal, with no Aura emanating from his body at all, but to Jiang Chen, this didn’t make much of a difference.

At first, he thought he had misseen, because breaking through to the Tenth Level of Qi Refining required talent; those without talent could never reach it. Of course, there were some who stepped into the Tenth Level of Qi Refining by accident, but those were one in ten thousand.

If Jiang Beiyuan truly had such talent, he wouldn’t have been just a small-fry at the Fifth Level of Qi Refining before.

”I must thank the Clan Chief’s mirror-breaking pill for allowing me to break through to the Tenth Level of Qi Refining.”

Jiang Beiyuan bowed in gratitude once more. This Breakthrough indeed relied on the mirror-breaking pill bestowed by Jiang Chen, but he did not mention the dangers faced during the Breakthrough.

”What, the Tenth Level of Qi Refining?”

”How is this possible?”

However, upon hearing Jiang Beiyuan’s affirmative answer, the Third and Fourth Elders could no longer maintain their confident smiles. Instead, they stood up together, looking in shock at Jiang Beiyuan, who emitted no Aura at all.

At this moment, their feeling of having everything under control vanished completely. They truly hadn’t expected this rising star to quietly surpass them and even overtake the Grand Elder and Second Elder.

”Alright, everyone sit down. The Grand Elder and the others haven’t arrived yet; let’s wait a bit longer.”

Seeing that the two Elders wanted to continue questioning, Jiang Chen directly interrupted them.

Not long after they sat down, the Grand Elder and Second Elder also walked into the hall.

At this moment, the Aura of the Ninth Level of Qi Refining on the two of them was completely undisguised.

Previously, the Third and Fourth Elders would have stepped forward to offer a few compliments upon their appearance, but with Jiang Beiyuan’s brilliant achievement preceding them, the Grand Elder and Second Elder’s Breakthrough to the Ninth Level of Qi Refining was no longer extraordinary.

The Grand Elder and Second Elder walked into the hall with happy faces, ready to share the joy of their Breakthrough, but as they drew closer, they sensed something was amiss.

In the past, the Third and Fourth Elders would have already come forward to congratulate them, but what was the situation today?

However, they soon stopped focusing on that; what was more important now was obtaining the foundation establishment pill. Even the Grand Elder found it hard to contain his emotions.

Foundation Establishment—a Realm dreamed of by so many, yet this hurdle blocked ninety-nine percent of Cultivators.

Indeed, every Foundation Establishment Cultivator was a one-in-a-hundred Genius, but being a Genius alone was far from enough; one also had to have resources.

Without resources, no matter how much of a Prodigy you were, it would all be like a castle in the air, a flower in the water, or the moon in a well.

”Clan Chief, I have already broken through to the Ninth Level of Qi Refining. About that foundation establishment pill...”

Second Elder Jiang Liejun looked at Jiang Chen with a fawning expression. He couldn’t help it; it was a foundation establishment pill, and he couldn’t possibly yield it to the Grand Elder. Although the Grand Elder had also reached the Ninth Level of Qi Refining, he could be persistent and pestering.

”Clan Chief...”

Just as the Grand Elder was about to speak, the Second Elder spoke up again.

”Grand Elder, in the future, you will mainly stay within the Family; your cultivation doesn’t necessarily need to reach Foundation Establishment. But I’m different. I am a War Hall Elder; I have to leave the Ancestral Land and fight against Desolate Beasts. If I don’t break through to Foundation Establishment, would you have the children of our Jiang Family pay with their lives to fight those brutal Desolate Beasts?”

The Second Elder hurriedly interrupted the Grand Elder. Seeing the Second Elder like this, the Grand Elder gave a bitter smile in his heart.

Actually, he had originally intended to tell the Clan Chief to leave the foundation establishment pill for the Second Elder, but seeing the Second Elder’s behavior, he decided to let it be and say nothing.

He thought that once the Clan Chief gave him the foundation establishment pill, he would simply give it to the Second Elder later.

”Alright, it’s just foundation establishment pills; everyone gets one.”

Jiang Chen directly took out two foundation establishment pills and handed them to the two.

Even as they took the foundation establishment pills, the two of them were still in a daze.

Two foundation establishment pills? Wasn’t there only one?

”Thank you, Clan Chief.”

”Thank you, Clan Chief.”

They quickly regained their senses and hurriedly bowed in gratitude.

Seeing both of them receive foundation establishment pills, it was impossible for the Third and Fourth Elders not to be envious, but thinking of their own Eighth Level of Qi Refining cultivation, it was a painful reality.

”Alright, now that you both have the foundation establishment pills, take them as soon as possible to break through to Foundation Establishment.”

”Grand Elder, once you break through, start establishing the Marketplace as soon as possible. The same goes for the Second Elder; after reaching Foundation Establishment, you must also quickly arrange to head out for Land Reclamation.”

Looking at the two, Jiang Chen instructed.

”Yes.”

The two responded in unison.

”Fifth Elder.”

Jiang Chen looked toward Jiang Beiyuan.

”Clan Chief.”

Jiang Beiyuan stood up and bowed.

”Since you’ve broken through to the Tenth Level of Qi Refining, keep working hard and strive to break through without using a foundation establishment pill.”

Jiang Chen spoke slowly, but his words struck the hearts of the Grand Elder and Second Elder like a clap of thunder.

”What? The Tenth Level of Qi Refining? How is that possible?”

”Is Jiang Beiyuan this formidable? How did I not know?”

At this moment, the two looked at Jiang Beiyuan as if he were a monster; they suddenly felt that the foundation establishment pills in their hands were no longer as appealing.

One must know that there is a world of difference between breaking through using a foundation establishment pill and breaking through to Foundation Establishment on one’s own.

Most people rely on foundation establishment pills to break through because their potential is limited to that, but by breaking through with one’s own strength, there is hope for reaching the Golden Core in the future.

One must know that those who can break through to the Tenth Level of Qi Refining are the favored children of heaven; once discovered, they are taken directly into a Sect.
