Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 729: Chapter 566: Unleashing the Self_2

Of course, these are all matters for later.

Although He Song had learned this information from the mouths of Master Luo Jing and Yun Jing, both of their cultivation had not yet reached the Golden Core Middle Stage.

For He Song, this matter required careful long-term consideration. It would not be too late to discuss it once their cultivation reached the Golden Core Middle Stage.

Besides, once their cultivation had reached the Golden Core Middle Stage, they would be sent out and become the Pavilion Masters of the Main Pavilion.

He Song also heard some news about Meng Guan from the two Masters.

On the battlefield, Meng Guan’s reputation was notably resounding.

And the two, who knew the relationship between He Song and Meng Guan, naturally shared some of this news with He Song upon learning of it.

In these ten years, although Meng Guan had not done anything major, there was a constant stream of minor events.

These were matters that Meng Guan himself had not shared with He Song, as he did not want to cause him concern.

Under such circumstances, the fact that He Song had learned about these matters involving Meng Guan from Master Luo Jing and Yun Jing also allowed him to gain a deeper understanding of Meng Guan.

However, regarding this issue, He Song did not dwell on it but kept it in mind and watched with interest.

In addition,

An Ning had also been sending letters to He Song frequently over these ten years.

With the frequency of almost a letter every month, the letters from An Ning were like snowflakes, often making He Song marvel that indeed he had made the right decision to help her.

It was precisely because He Song had given An Ning a Foundation Establishment Elixir.

Therefore, after An Ning successfully stepped into the Foundation Establishment Realm, she held He Song in very high regard.

During these ten years, in addition to sending He Song a letter every month to inform him of the happenings around Jinsha Immortal Lane,

She also informed He Song of some rumors she had overheard.

She had also invited He Song to visit Jinsha Immortal Lane more than once.

This time was no different from the past.

In the past, An Ning wanted He Song to join her in exploring the abandoned mine where he now resided.

But during these ten years, none of An Ning’s invitations mentioned this matter.

Last time, He Song had already explored this place with her, and they had gained quite a few benefits from it.

He Song was now indeed residing in this abandoned mine.

In such a situation, although An Ning was unaware that He Song was living there, she definitely would not mention the abandoned mine again.

Instead, she directly invited He Song to be a guest at Jinsha Immortal Lane to fulfill her duties as a host.

The last time He Song left in a hurry.

It had left her quite at a loss.

Although He Song later claimed that he had urgent matters to attend to, which is why he left quickly,

The fact that He Song had stayed at Jinsha Immortal Lane for only a few days before leaving in a hurry made An Ning feel that she had not treated him properly and that she had failed in her courtesy.

Therefore, she repeatedly invited He Song to continue visiting Jinsha Immortal Lane so that she could properly entertain him.

Afterward, even after He Song had continuously refused, she claimed that once she made a breakthrough to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, allowing her to leave freely, she would definitely seek out He Song to properly entertain him.

Considering this, He Song thought about it and did not refuse.

Once An Ning made a successful breakthrough to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage,

When she truly came looking for him, he could indeed offer her some guidance.

After she had a sufficient understanding of the dangers of the outside world, he could then let her go out to seek opportunities.

In this way, he would also fulfill what Su Qian had entrusted him with.

As for whether An Ning could eventually step into the Golden Core Realm,

He Song did not harbor any particular notions.

Whether she could or not, He Song had already fulfilled Su Qian’s entrustment by helping An Ning successfully step into the Foundation Establishment Realm.

What came next would depend on her own fate.

Perhaps, in the future, she would also rise upon the wind, with rapid progression in her cultivation?

Although An Ning had not provided He Song with any significantly valuable information during these ten years,

There were quite a few times when she had still been of help to He Song.

He Song, after all, resided near Jinsha Immortal Lane, and naturally needed to be aware of the surrounding news.

With An Ning collecting information for He Song from the outside, He Song was also able to stay informed about the outside world within his cave mansion, thus avoiding some risks.

With this arrangement, even when He Song occasionally went out, he could be much safer.

Besides these pieces of news, the greatest achievement for He Song over these ten years was actually the growth in his cultivation realm and strength.

Ten years had allowed the mana in He Song’s body to increase significantly.

What also grew was his personal strength.

He Song, who already possessed as many as six Talismanic Treasures ten years ago, now had a strength that could not be measured by common sense.

Now, though He Song would still need to flee when facing a Late-stage Golden Core Cultivator, he needn’t be as cautious as before when dealing with those at the Early Golden Elixir Stage or the Golden Core Middle Stage.

As for why He Song would break out of seclusion after ten years,

that would be thanks to Yu’er.

During these ten years,

He Song had been immersed in seclusive cultivation, paying no attention to the outside world.

And in these ten years, Yu’er, who had already been in seclusive cultivation in Green Moon Immortal State for several decades,

completely let loose after suddenly arriving at the Purple Cloud Sect in Hu State, where He Song’s cave mansion was now located.

Because right beneath He Song’s cave mansion was the entrance to the Vast Wave Secret Realm.

And inside the Vast Wave Secret Realm, there were many Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment demonic beasts.

Moreover, the environment within the Vast Wave Secret Realm was as familiar to Yu’er as home.

After all, He Song had initially found the elixir laid by Yu’er’s mother by the side of a large river.

Although not all turtle-type demonic beasts are fond of water, with some being land turtles,

Yu’er was undoubtedly water-loving.

In such circumstances, the Vast Wave Secret Realm was nothing short of a paradise on earth for Yu’er.

Furthermore, in the Vast Wave Secret Realm, even though Yu’er’s cultivation was not the highest, it was by no means weak.

A turtle-type spirit beast with a cultivation at the Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment had a defense that was extremely hard to break even for demonic beasts at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.

Even if an adversary, driven to desperation, grabbed Yu’er and gave her a relentless beating, it would still likely be very difficult to defeat her entirely.

What’s more, Yu’er could always return to He Song’s cave mansion at any time.

And in He Song’s cave mansion, there was a Golden Core Array set up.

Once an external demonic beast entered the array, facing the terrifying power of the Golden Elixir Array, the demonic beasts within, whose cultivation was at most at the Foundation Establishment level, would naturally be instantly annihilated.

Under such conditions, Yu’er could quite literally strut around in the Vast Wave Secret Realm.

As long as she didn’t wander too far from He Song’s cave mansion, no demonic beast could pose a threat to her.

And so,

Yu’er was having a blast.

But for the other demonic beasts within the Vast Wave Secret Realm, it was an absolute misfortune.

It is well known that if spirit beasts desire to rapidly advance their cultivation realm, their master needs to continuously refine Beasts Elixirs for them to consume.

The main ingredients for Beasts Elixirs are precisely the flesh and essence blood of demonic beasts.

Beasts Elixirs made from the flesh and essence blood of demonic beasts can enhance the cultivation speed and strength of spirit beasts.

But… consuming the flesh and essence blood of demonic beasts directly can also enhance the cultivation speed and strength of spirit beasts.

After all, the Beasts Elixir is refined from the flesh and essence blood of demonic beasts.

If consumed directly,

though the effect may not be as good, it counterbalances this with quantity and certainly fills the belly.

After a large amount of demonic beast flesh was consumed, Yu’er’s cultivation experienced rapid progress over these ten years.

At the same time, Yu’er’s swift advancement in cultivation was accompanied by a rapid reduction in the number of demonic beasts in the Vast Wave Secret Realm, visible to the naked eye.

For Yu’er, who had always been raised by He Song, receiving only one Beasts Elixir a day, the Vast Wave Secret Realm was simply paradise.

In Yu’er’s understanding,

He Song placing her in such an apparently undefended Vast Wave Secret Realm clearly indicated his intention.

This place was her hunting ground.

This place was her backyard.

This place was the source of her cultivation.
