Chapter 31: Heaven Questions Foundation Building

The first birthday celebration had been too rushed. 

Song Qingshi was embarrassed. When he used to celebrate his birthday before, he used to hold a grand family party at home. Three-tier birthday cakes, chocolate desserts air transported from abroad and gifts piled up like a mountain. His older sister especially liked to give him tons of gifts every time; gifts ranging from computers and designer clothes to medical instruments. His mother held special concerts for him every year and his father liked to donate to charity in his name. His father had even donated a laboratory building to the school in his name as a birthday gift. The chef at home would make him longevity noodles, the housekeeper would give him dolls she had made herself and the servants would draw cute greeting cards for him, wishing him well. Even during the last year, when he’d been bed-ridden in the hospital, his birthday celebration was a hundred times better than Yue Wuhuan’s was now.

No cakes, no food, no greeting cards, no expensive gifts…

Using the Quintessence of All Souls to remove the Acacia Seal was a matter they had already discussed early on. Xie Que’s soul was ugly and disgusting. It wasn’t worthy of being a gift. The wooden box was also originally Wuhuan’s, he just added some gems in it. Mortal gems were not considered valuable in the immortal realm. They can only be regarded as children’s toys.

Song Qingshi was feeling guiltier the more he thought about it so he hurriedly set off a few more fireworks into the sky, trying to create a more birthday party-like atmosphere. He then took out a big…shoutao from the mustard seed bag. 

“They say this is what you eat for birthdays.” Song Qingshi lowered his head in shame, his voice getting smaller and smaller. He went to pastry shops in several cities before he knew that there was nothing like cakes in the immortal realm and it was too late to order them. The owner of the pastry shop saw that he was a Nascent Soul cultivator and didn’t dare to refuse his unreasonable request. He recommended this birthday shoutao, saying it was for birthdays and its symbolism was similar to that of cakes.

He also hadn’t found any suitable birthday candles and so he simply lit a small red lotus on it using his alchemical fire. He then handed it to Yue Wuhuan, saying, “Make a wish and then blow out the flame on it. Then your wish will come true.”

Yue Wuhuan has never heard of such a custom. He smiled and accepted the shoutao. “It can really come true?”

“It can.” Song Qingshi replied firmly. This was because his parents taught him to make wishes since he was a child. He has made a wish every year that he could have a healthy body. The result was a bit different from what he originally imagined but he miraculously came to this world and got a new start to life. In any case, his wish has been fulfilled.

Seeing his insistence, Yue Wuhuan closed his eyes obediently. “I hope to also celebrate my birthday with Master next year.”

“Wishes mustn’t be said aloud. It must be said silently in your heart,” Song Qingshi realized that he had forgotten to tell him this important rule and quickly stopped him. “You can make a new one.”

If you don’t need to say it aloud, that makes things a lot easier…

Yue Wuhuan smiled and silently made an impossible wish. He then gently blew out the red lotus on the birthday shoutao. 

Song Qingshi quickly extinguished the flame the moment it flickered.

He wanted to help Yue Wuhuan realize all of his wishes…

“This year’s birthday party is too simple,” Song Qingshi promised earnestly, “Next year I’ll make a grander one for you. I’ll study how to bake a cake. I’ll make a big birthday cake with white cream and write your name with jam. I’ll also buy you more beautiful gems as gifts and set off real fireworks…”

Yue Wuhuan watched him for a long time and tentatively asked, “Will you be with me every year?” 

Song Qingshi didn’t hesitate. “I’ll be with you year after year!”

Yue Wuhuan has long established that Song Qingshi doesn’t like to lie. He means to keep every word he says so this promise meant that he could stay in Medicine King’s Valley forever. He could stay by his side and become his most important person step by step. Ecstasy spread in his heart, covering the dark shadows. The corners of his lips couldn’t help but curl up. He hadn’t been so happy in years.

He couldn’t look away… 

The phenethylamine in his body was increasing and he was losing the ability to think calmly, resulting in a rapid heartbeat and a bit of heat on his face. What was this? These were not feelings that a doctor should have towards a patient. Song Qingshi took a deep calming breath, trying to steady his breathing and adjust his emotions. Suddenly… he felt the Nascent Soul he had cultivated in his body suddenly move. His spiritual power began to grow chaotic and his Dantian was a little uncomfortable.

It seemed like this body had some sort of hidden disease?

Song Qingshi resisted the discomfort. He controlled his emotions and forcibly suppressed his Nascent Soul’s abnormal movements, temporarily calming his breathing. He found that after the Acacia Seal was lifted, Yue Wuhuan was more mentally relaxed and the spiritual power in his meridians was flowing like crazy. There were signs that he was going to break through to Foundation Building. He quickly gave him a pill to help him meditate and adjust his breathing.

Building a foundation wasn’t difficult for Yue Wuhuan. 

Song Qingshi stood by, checking his body while waiting for his results.

It took him more than an hour to thoroughly check himself inside and out. After eliminating the influence of various poison, he still couldn’t find the reason for Nascent Soul’s abnormal movements. He was deeply troubled.

At this time, Yue Wuhuan opened his eyes. He had reached Foundation Building. The heavens and humans reacted and his heart moved. He slowly looked towards the sky and guardedly drew out his long sword.

Song Qingshi realized belatedly that something was strange. He looked up and found that the sky had changed its appearance without him noticing. The rolling black clouds had obscured the stars and a vortex of thunder and lightning was formed in the clouds. He couldn’t believe his eyes. “This is…?” 

To cultivate to immortality was to go against the Heavens.

The Lightning Tribulation was a test of life and death sent by the Heavens for cultivators. It was also an opportunity to stabilize your cultivation base and temper your physical body.

Song Qingshi had undergone this test when he formed him Golden Core and he gave birth to his Nascent Soul. He was no stranger to this, but…needing to pass the Lightning Tribulations during Foundation Building was unheard of in the immortal realm! Foundation Building was just the first step into the immortal gate and this was a stage that was reached by almost all cultivators. What need was there for a Lightning Tribulation test? The Heavens must have gotten it wrong, right?!

Yue Wuhuan had never encountered such a thing the first time he built his foundation so he hadn’t prepared any equipment to pass the tribulation. 

The first strike of lightning fell. Its intensity was comparable to that of tests at Core Formation.

Yue Wuhuan held the sword to welcome it. The long sword pierced without hesitation and the cry of a phoenix reverberated in the air. The sword light intertwined with the lightning and unexpectedly broke up the momentum of the incoming strike. He then guided it to him own body and used his body that had just attained Foundation Building to resist its force. A thin stream of blood oozed out from the corner of his mouth. He looked at the still seething thunderclouds overhead and his eyes were filled with hatred.

These were not ordinary Tribulation Clouds. This was Heaven’s malice towards him.

The second lightning strike fell and the intensity was even stronger. 

Song Qingshi desperately took out all the magical pills and defensive weapons in the mustard seed bag and threw them all to Yue Wuhuan, hoping that this can hinder the lightning. The Immortal Refining Elixir can temporarily increase your cultivation base, the Heart Protection Pill can protect the heart and the Body Refining Pill can quickly repair the body… Regardless of the value, regardless of whether it was part of his collection or not, at this moment, none of that mattered…

Yue Wuhuan quickly set up a defensive array and with the help of the magic weapons, he greeted Heaven’s lightning.

The third lightning strike…

The fourth lightning strike… 

The fifth lightning strike…

The sixth lightning strike…

Unexpectedly, this was actually a Nine Lightning Tribulation…

As lightning struck one after another, Yue Wuhuan’s long sword shattered, all the magical weapons have been destroyed and only the medicine and the formation were left to help him suffer through this ordeal. His body was already so badly injured by the lightning, but he gave a crazed smile at the Heavens. “If you want to ruin me then come on! If you want to destroy me then come! I’m right here!” 

Song Qingshi’s Nascent Soul began to shift frantically. The pain made him gasp but his eyes didn’t dare to move even a fraction away from Yue Wuhuan.

The seventh lightning strike…

The eighth lightning strike…

All the formations have been destroyed. Yue Wuhuan fell to the ground once again, his entire body covered in blood. And yet, ever staunch, he still wanted to get up and continue to fight. However, the Tribulation Cloud in the sky became even stronger, furious lightning rolled in the clouds, converging into a Lightning Tribulation matching the ferocity of that which was for a Nascent Soul breakthrough. Yue Wuhuan finally realized that with this Lightning Tribulation, the Heavens never intended to give him even the slightest chance of survival… 

He must die today.

“Why?” Yue Wuhuan looked at the lightning in the sky and muttered to himself, “In your eyes, am I not even worthy of living?”

A Foundation Building cultivation base, no matter how hard he struggled, there was no way he can resist the strongest strike of a Nascent Soul’s Tribulation.

The intensity of this Lightning Tribulation has already destroyed the laws of heaven and earth. It surpassed all others of its kind before and since. 

Yue Wuhuan suddenly understood everything, he smiled and asked the thundercloud in the sky.

“This Lightning Tribulation that does not hesitate to break the laws of Heaven, this is not hatred…”

“You have a reason why you must kill me during the Foundation Building period.”

“Haha, are you afraid of me?” 

“……”

Heaven flew into a rage from shame and roared down furious lightning.

Yue Wuhuan used his last strength to prop up his body. He looked at the lightning with bitter resentment, waiting for the arrival of death. Looking back on his whole life, he didn’t know what he had done wrong to deserve being targeted repeatedly by Heaven. Not only did they destroy everything, but even his life would not be spared. He finally crawled out of hell and got a little bit of warmth and he was going to be deprived of it in the blink of an eye.

He was not afraid of death… 

He just regrets that he can’t spend his birthday with his master next year…

Suddenly, there were two red and black flame lotus flowers blooming in the air. It was Song Qingshi who flew into the air and blocked the Ligthning Tribulation with his Life Artifact. He had long realized that there was something not right about this Lightning Tribulation. It was not that he didn’t want to make his move in advance, but if a Nascent Soul cultivator were to intervene in the Lightning Tribulation, it will make the tribulation stronger and in addition, Yue Wuhuan would lose the opportunities and benefits brought by it. And so he could only wait painfully until the final blow, when the lightning has taken shape, to intervene.

However, he never expected that the final lightning strike would turn out to have the intensity of a Nascent Soul’s Lightning Tribulation, maybe even stronger.

The two lotus flowers were torn into pieces. His magical artifacts were already used up. 

He can only block this lightning with his body…

The vestment made of ice silk were set ablaze. His Nascent Soul was severely injured and he lost all sensation on the burned left half of his body. Consciousness slipping away, he fell feebly from the sky, like a very light leaf, floating into Yue Wuhuan’s arms.

The laws of heaven and earth once again took shape and Tribulation Clouds unwillingly dispersed.

Yue Wuhuan desperately held the person in his arms. No! This is not the ending he wants! 

The Emotion Locking Gu couldn’t control the emotional collapse and his breathing began to turn disordered.

Song Qingshi realized something was wrong. He struggled, exhausting the last of his strength. He wanted to make a sound from his burnt throat, “Don’t, don’t be sad…”

Wuhuan, did you hear that?
