"Little Nine, are you ready to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm?"

With a slight smile on his face, Leo asked Little Nine.

"Master, did you get the Foundation Establishment Pill already?"

It's been a week since Leo promised Little Nine regarding the Foundation Establishment Pill.

So, when he heard the Sect Master asking about his breakthrough, Little Nine could not help but become excited and hurriedly nodded his head.

"Good. Consume these six pills at once and focus on breaking through to the Foundation Establishement Realm."

Leo gave Little Nine three Top-level Qi-refinement pills along with three Top-level qi-harmony pills and asked him to consume them.

A top-level qi-refinement pill increases the success rate of the breakthrough into the Foundation Establishment Realm by 10 percent and it could be stacked three times, a cultivator could have a 30 percent success rate in breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

As for the top-level qi-harmony pill, it has a success rate of 20 percent and with three pills, the success rate to become a Foundation Establishment Realm can be increased to 60 percent.

Combining these six pills, the success rate would be 90 percent and as for the remaining 10 percent, Little Nine had a more than 30 percent success rate on his own.

Nevertheless, Leo checked the success rate for Little Nine to break through to Foundation Establishment Realm and found out he needed a total of six pills, three pills from each category.

Of course, he thought to use only one type of pill; however, the success rate for those pills can be stackable up to three times and thus, Leo had to use that method.

'What?'

For a moment, Gallant and the three elders were shocked as they looked at Leo with doubtful looks.

Even though they were quite loyal to Leo, they still felt that the method Leo was suggesting seemed a little unreal and unreliable.

"Yes, Sect Master."

However, on the other hand, Little Nine didn't even doubt Leo for a single moment as he excitedly took the six pills from Leo and directly tossed them into his mouth.

"Idiot…why did you consume them here?"

Seeing Little Nine's actions, Leo facepalmed himself and before he could do anything, the aura released by Little Nine became powerful.

"Quickly sit down and circulate the cultivation technique."

Since there was nothing Leo could do now, he went with the flow and ordered Little Nine to focus on his breakthrough.

Little Nine also knew that he was a little too excited about his breakthrough and getting permission from Leo. Hence, he tossed the pills into his mouth.

However, with all the energy going rampant in his body, Little Nine hurriedly sat down and followed Leo's instructions of circulating his cultivation technique.

"Gallant, I think it is too late for us to move him to the cultivation chamber. Things will be different once the news about Little Nine goes out."

Leo informed Gallant as he walked towards Little Nine and placed his hands on Little Nine's back to control the rampant energy in his body.

Even though it was not a powerful cultivator in this world, Leo was still a peak foundation establishment realm cultivator and could help Little Nine in controlling the energy.

….

Outside the Twilight Moon Sect,

'What? Someone is breaking through the Foundation Establisment Realm?'

'Is it one of the disciples from this dying sect?'

'We should inform our sects about this.'

As Leo was helping Little Nine with his breakthrough, the energy emitted by Little Nine's body quickly caught the attention of passersby.

In no time, the information regarding one of the disciples of the Twilight Moon Sect breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm has been spread.

The other two sects were waiting for the Twilight Moon Sect to die on their own without getting any dust on their hands.

However, if one of their disciples' breakthroughs to the Foundation Establishment Realm, it would change things for the sect.

As far as the information they have on the disciples of the Twilight Moon Sect, every one of them was below 25 years old and becoming a foundation Establishment Realm cultivator at such a young age could be considered an achievement even in the Grade 7 Sect, the Lunar Sect.

Once the information about this reaches the Lunar Sect, the fate of the Twilight Moon Sect would be completely turned.

They would recruit that little brat who broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm and reward the sect with various resources or they might even bestow them a Golden Core Pill depending on the colour of the Foundation they established after they break through,

Thinking about this, the two sects became extremely frustrated and wanted to rush to the Twilight Moon sect to kill that brat.

"Sect Leader, we can't do that because the moment we do that, the other sect will gladly inform the Lunar Sect and once the Lunar Sect learns that we killed a genius who could have become their sect, they would directly eradicate us."

The vice sect leaders of the two sects tried their best to calm their sect leaders as they knew that it would only create more problems for them if they kill a genius so openly.

"It looks like we could only give in and try to establish some good connections with the Twilight Moon Sect and when we find the right time, we should destroy them completely."

After thinking for a moment, the two sects decided to form connections with the Twilight Moon Sects because they knew all the remaining disciples in that sect were quite loyal to the sect.

Even if that disciple joins the Lunar Sect, he would find one way or the other two to help the Twilight Moon Sect.

Therefore, for now, they both decided to wait for an opportunity while staying on good terms with the Twilight Moon Sect.

"Let's go with some congratulatory gifts."

Without wasting any time, the sect leaders have already ordered the elders to prepare some good gifts to show their goodwill to the Twilight Moon Sect.

"But, master, the breakthrough is yet to be completed and there are even chances that he might fail."

One of the elders shared his thoughts.

"It's alright! We will wait in the inn close to the Twilight Moon Sect and if the breakthrough was successful, we should go in immediately to congratulate them; otherwise, those b*stards would enter first."

Coincidentally, the two sect leaders had similar thoughts and started working on it.

….

In the Twilight Moon Sect,

Time continued to pass and it took more than three hours before the aura emitted by Little Nine disappeared as he successfully became a Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator under the guidance of Leo.

"Congratulations, Little Brat for successfully becoming a Foundation Establishment Realm. You can be considered one of the geniuses from those grade 8 sects and even the Lunar Sect might send someone to recruit you."

Leo congratulated Little Nine regarding his breakthrough while explaining how the next few days would be.

"Thank you, sect master."

Little Nine was calm which was uncommon in most cultivators of his age even after breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm as he informed Leo, "Master, as long as they offer a Golden Core Pill to you, I will instantly join the Lunar Sect."

Little Nine was loyal to Leo and the Twilight Moon Sect; however, if he had to choose between the two, he would, without any hesitation, choose Leo.

For him, Leo was a parent and he knew that if Leo didn't break through to the Golden Core Realm, he wouldn't live for long.

Therefore, he was willing to abandon the Twilight Moon Sect to join the Lunar Sect for the Golden Core Pill.

"..."

Leo remained silent for a moment and thought about a few things, "Even without the pill, I want you to join the Lunar Sect where you can get more cultivation resources compared to here."

Even though Leo could get better cultivation resources with time, Leo wanted Little Nine to join the Lunar Sect because he could get access to more cultivation resources.

With Little Nine's help, Leo could use those cultivation resources to merge them into more powerful and rare cultivation resources.

By staying in Silvermoon City, the rate at which Leo and his sect grow would be slow…at least from Leo's perspective.

Therefore, Leo wanted to use Little Nine and get more cultivation resources.

'Of course, it would be better for me, little nine and everyone in the Twilight Moon Sect.'

Leo was thinking of the bigger picture as he asked Little Nine to join the sect.

"As for the rewards from the Lunar Sect….let's check your Foundation first."

Little Nine remained silent when he heard Leo's words because he could tell that the Sect Master was a little different from before as he was getting some special resources from who knows where.

Anyway, he didn't think much about it as he knew the sect master was not a bad person…at least for them.

Therefore, he believed that his master would get a Golden Core Pill in the same manner and decided to follow Leo's instructions.

On the other hand, Leo was checking the foundation that Little Nine had formed after becoming a Foundation Establishment Realm.

After a cultivator reaches the Foundation Establishment Realm, his battle prowess and future cultivation speed will be dependent on the foundation they have formed in the process of becoming a Foindation Establishment Realm.

The higher the grade of the foundation formed by that cultivation, the more valuable he would become in the eyes of the sects.

Therefore, Leo wanted to see how much of a genius the Little Nine was.
