Chapter 418: Chapter 418: Halfway to Foundation Establishment_1

No! I can’t breakthrough now!

Without the Foundation Establishment Pill, breaking through now means death!

Ning Fan’s forehead was covered in sweat as he desperately tried to suppress the Spiritual Power within his body.

But contrary to his wishes, the more Ning Fan tried to restrain it, the more turbulent and violent the Spiritual Power inside him became, desperately knocking at the gate.

Ning Fan felt as if his entire body was filled with Spiritual Power, about to explode!

"Aaaaah!"

Finally, Ning Fan could no longer contain it and let out a tiger’s roar as the Spiritual Power within him erupted violently.

Boom!

Ning Fan’s eyes snapped open, and his strength burst out uncontrollably.

The small wooden hut couldn’t withstand such power and instantly exploded into countless pieces.

After a long while.

Ning Fan slowly stood up, looking at his hands with a mix of shock and joy.

I’ve succeeded in Foundation Establishment?

At this moment, Ning Fan could clearly feel all the Spiritual Power in his body converging, compressing, and spinning toward the Dantian in his lower abdomen!

The Spiritual Power whirled faster and faster at Ning Fan’s Dantian, rapidly forming a Spiritual Energy Vortex that absorbed all the Spiritual Power in his body.

The vortex’s rotation sped up, then slowed down, fluctuating continuously until it finally stabilized.

"I... I succeeded in Foundation Establishment?"

Ning Fan exclaimed in disbelief and joy.

Without the Foundation Establishment Pill, he had actually succeeded in Foundation Establishment?

According to the heritage left by his mother, the Spiritual Energy Vortex at the Dantian was one of the signs of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

During the Qi Refinement Realm, Spiritual Power roamed throughout the body, unable to be compressed and stored.

But upon reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage and forming the Spiritual Energy Vortex at the Dantian, all the Spiritual Power could be compressed and stored within the vortex, ready to be pumped out and used at will.

However, another sign of successful Foundation Establishment, the reshaping of the body’s foundations, was not achieved.

At this time, although Ning Fan had formed the Spiritual Energy Vortex, he had not reshaped the foundations of his body. He could not be considered to have truly succeeded in Foundation Establishment; it was merely a half-completed state.

"Miss Xu!"

Even if it was only half-complete, it was still worth celebrating. Ning Fan turned excitedly, but he only saw Hua Nishang.

"Ning Fan, congratulations," Hua Nishang said with a smile.

"Where’s Miss Xu?" Ning Fan asked.

Looking around, Ning Fan didn’t see Xu Yourong’s figure and instantly felt an uncontrollable sense of unease.

"Xu Yourong left," Hua Nishang said calmly.

"What? Miss Xu left? How is that possible? Where did she go? Did you lie to her or say something to deceive her?"

Ning Fan was immediately horrified, grabbing Hua Nishang’s collar, his voice angry and anxious.

"I didn’t deceive her. I just told her the truth," Hua Nishang replied.

"What truth?" Ning Fan yelled desperately.

"She was dying, and you were using your life force to sustain her. She was nothing but a vampire sucking away your life force. After I told her these truths, she chose to leave."

"Ning Fan, you shouldn’t feel guilty. Even if you desperately sustained Xu Yourong with your life force, it would only postpone the inevitable. Everyone’s life force is different, just like everyone’s fingerprints are unique. Your life forces could never fully integrate, so Xu Yourong’s death is certain!"

"If Xu Yourong truly liked you, truly loved you, then she should have left you sooner rather than staying to drain your life force!"

"So, Ning Fan, you should be thanking me!"

After she finished speaking, Hua Nishang even slightly lifted her chin.

Slap!

The next second, Ning Fan, furious, raised his hand and slapped Hua Nishang hard across the face.

Fortunately, Ning Fan retained a shred of rationality in his rage and did not unleash his Spiritual Power; otherwise, the slap could have been fatal to Hua Nishang.

Even so, the slap sent Hua Nishang staggering backward, falling to the ground.

Her left cheek instantly swelled up, turning red.

"You hit me, but I don’t blame you. I can understand your feelings, and I believe that, sooner or later, you will understand mine," said Hua Nishang, covering her face as she stood up, still wearing a faint smile.

"Hua Nishang, I really wish I could kill you! Don’t you know, if Miss Xu leaves me, she really will die!!" Ning Fan’s forehead veins bulged as he roared in anger.

Immediately after, he unleashed his Spiritual Power to its fullest and began to sense with his eyes closed.

Xu Yourong had the Jade Pendant with her, which he had made by hand. It contained a trace of his Spiritual Power, which meant he could sense its approximate location if it wasn’t too far away.

When he had returned from Shen City to his home province, jumping off the plane, it was by sensing that pendant that he had found Xu Yourong in the hospital.

Quickly, Ning Fan’s eyes snapped open, confusion on his face.

"Miss Xu is nearby? She didn’t go far?"

Ning Fan looked around in surprise, yet still he saw no sign of Xu Yourong.

Until he noticed the familiar red string around Hua Nishang’s neck.

Ning Fan rushed over to Hua Nishang in a few strides, grabbed her collar, and roughly yanked at the red string around her neck, breaking it and seizing the Jade Pendant in his hand.

"Hua Nishang! Why do you have the Jade Pendant? Why!" Ning Fan recognized the pendant instantly and grabbed Hua Nishang’s throat tightly, shouting furiously."

"This was given to me by Xu Yourong herself... Let... let me go..." Hua Nishang soon found it hard to breathe, her face pale, close to suffocation.

"You!"

Ning Fan felt a rush of blood shoot straight to his head, and blinding rage instantly shattered his mental defenses.

Xu Yourong had left without even taking her mobile phone with her; that Jade Pendant was the only way to find her.

Now that the pendant was in Hua Nishang’s hands, if he couldn’t find Xu Yourong immediately, she was doomed to die!!!
