Chapter 252: Chapter 244: Sudden Increase in Strength
Translator: 549690339
It should be quite exciting, right?
He Song didn’t know what kind of expression Master Ningyin and the Seven Star Sect would have after learning about all this.
But when he saw this news, the joy on his face could hardly be restrained.
Fortunately, when Master Qingyue told He Song about this, he mostly used Sound Transmission Amulets instead of telling him in person.
Otherwise, He Song was afraid that he could not conceal his emotions and expose himself in front of Master Qingyue.
If that happened, it would be terrible.
However, after knowing that the Golden Sword Sect didn’t find out about his involvement in this matter, He Song couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Having the Seven Star Sect and Master Ningyin take the blame was exactly what He Song wanted.
The Seven Star Sect got expelled from their original territory by the Thick Earth Sect. Although it was the work of a Nascent Soul Upper Sect, the Seven Star Sect would certainly not be content with it.
As can be seen from their planting a spy in Herbs Immortal Workshop, the Seven Star Sect hated the Thick Earth Sect to the extreme.
They wanted to return to their original place and drive the Thick Earth Sect back to where they came from.
Therefore, the Seven Star Sect and the Thick Earth Sect were destined to be enemies.
As a member of the Thick Earth Sect, He Song was naturally hostile to the Seven Star Sect.
As such, causing trouble for the enemy was only natural.
As for the scapegoated Master Ningyin.
He Song had killed his disciple and stole his Spirit Puppet Skill. If not a life-or-death feud, Master Ningyin must hate He Song to the bone.
If the Seven Star Sect were to make a comeback in the future, he would definitely target He Song first.
Although He Song was now powerful and no longer afraid.
But sometimes it’s not the thief he fears, but the thief’s constant thinking that worries him.
It would be good if Master Ningyin could be killed by the Golden Sword Sect.
Therefore, He Song did not feel guilty about framing Master Ningyin.
He even hoped that the Golden Sword Sect would be more ruthless, killing Master Ningyin.
That way, He Song would have one less enemy to deal with.
However, three years have passed, and He Song hasn’t heard any news about the Golden Sword Sect, the Seven Star Sect, or Master Ningyin.
He didn’t know if Master Ningyin was still alive.
How did the grudges between the Seven Star Sect and the Golden Sword Sect end up?
Would Master Cangjian’s master seek revenge for his disciple?
He Song had not heard any news about these matters.
However, since there was no news, these matters should have remained unchanged.
If there was a change, he should have heard the news quickly.
However, the fact that Master Ningyin was still alive after three years and the grudge between the Seven Star Sect and the Golden Sword Sect had not erupted made He Song a little speechless.
This Master Ningyin’s life was really big.
Being able to survive for so long under the Golden Sword Sect’s kill order must have required extraordinary means.
As for the grudge between the Seven Star Sect and the Golden Sword Sect.
Since the two factions didn’t border each other, He Song didn’t find it strange.
After relocating the entire Seven Star Sect, the God Locking Sect allocated four Immortal Cities to them for development.
Its location was not too far from the Thick Earth Sect and the Golden Sword Sect, but there was another Golden Elixir Demon Sect in between.
Under such circumstances, it was quite difficult to resolve their grudges.
In these three years, He Song also took the opportunity to establish a hidden cave mansion within the five Medicine Gardens he had opened up. The mansion was as deep as a thousand meters.
His hidden cave mansion here was quite similar to those he had established elsewhere.
Both were thousands of meters deep underground.
Both were surrounded by rocks on all sides, making it impossible for ordinary people to enter or exit.
Both were located in extremely hidden places that ordinary cultivators might overlook even if they passed by.
Both had some resources stored in the cave mansion for emergencies.
However, since this place was the closest to where He Song usually stayed, this cave mansion naturally had the most resources.
If He Song needed to live here in the future, he could hold out for a longer time.
At the same time.
Compared to the hidden cave mansions he had established elsewhere, these cave mansions were located right below the five Medicine Gardens that He Song owned.
Above these Medicine Gardens was the Smoke Array.
With the Smoke Array in place, even if a Golden Elixir Master came and investigated with his divine sense, he probably wouldn’t find He Song’s whereabouts.
The security didn’t need to be mentioned.
In addition to this hidden cave mansion, He Song also tirelessly cultivated the Divine Profound Body Refining Skill during these three years.
As he practiced the Divine Profound Body Refining Skill, He Song’s physical body became stronger and stronger.
His strength increased.
His defense improved.
Now He Song could feel the immense power within his body with just a light squeeze.
According to He Song’s estimates, his body had become much stronger than three years ago.
Compared to three years ago, his strength had increased a lot.
Practicing the Divine Profound Body Refining Skill made He Song’s control over his body more and more terrifying.
Even as he continued to practice the Divine Profound Body Refining Skill, He Song felt that his body was constantly becoming more perfect.
Even his appearance seemed to be more perfect than before.
Most cultivators of immortality already possess pleasant appearances.
After cultivating immortality, under the nourishment of spirit Qi, they become even more elegant.
In this case, the appearance of cultivators is almost perfect enough.
However, after practicing the Divine Profound Body Refining Skill, He Song’s appearance became even more perfect. Even among a group of cultivators, he stood out like a crane among a flock of chickens. After realizing this, He Song was slightly troubled.
But he was helpless.
He never expected the Divine Profound Body Refining Skill to have this effect.
He could only warn himself in his heart that if he attended any major events or did something bad in the future, he must disguise his appearance to make himself look ordinary.
Otherwise, just with this face alone, he would probably attract a lot of attention.
As an everlasting being, He Song didn’t want to draw too much attention.
Quietly being a cultivator pursuing the Tao was his goal.
As for the rest, He Song never gave it much thought.
In addition, during these three years, He Song continued to sort out what he had gained before.
The odds and ends he obtained from the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion were too many to count.
After a long time of identification, He Song finally picked out many valuable ores, spirit grasses, spirit medicines, demon pills, and so on from those odds and ends.
These items were valuable, and He Song properly stored them away after selecting them.
As for some common, worthless items, He Song destroyed them all and didn’t keep them.
After calculating the prices of these items, they were worth tens of thousands of spirit stones.
Adding to the more than one hundred thousand spirit stones he had already calculated before, the total number of spirit stones He Song had harvested three years ago actually exceeded two hundred thousand, reaching more than two hundred thousand spirit stones.
Such a large number of spirit stones made He Song wealthy again in a short time.
He constantly invested in cultivation resources, trying to make his cultivation speed even faster.
Of course, while constantly cultivating, He Song didn’t forget to study the Amulet Tao and Elixir Tao.
After three years, He Song made considerable progress in Amulet Tao, but even greater progress in Elixir Tao.
Now, although He Song still couldn’t draw low-quality Thick Earth Spirit Amulets with ease.
His success rate in drawing low-quality Thick Earth Spirit Amulets had
increased significantly.
It was just that it had not yet reached 50 percent.
But according to He Song’s estimates, if he had a few more years, his success rate in drawing low-quality Thick Earth Spirit Amulets would definitely increase to more than 50 percent.
Only then would he truly be able to draw low-quality Thick Earth Spirit Amulets with proficiency.
As for Elixir Tao.
Since he had purchased a middle-grade Artifact Elixir furnace early on, and his spirit stones were abundant, he didn’t hesitate to spend a lot of spirit stones on the materials for elixir refinement.
He Song’s progress in Elixir Tao was almost meteoric.
Although he hadn’t yet mastered all the elixir formulas for the Qi-refining stage, he could already refine many elixirs for consumption during the Qi-refining stage.
Inedia Elixir, miscellaneous-grade elixir.
Qi Nourishing Elixir, low-grade elixir, can be used to enhance one’s cultivation during the Qi Refining Early Stage.
Qi-Gathering Elixir, middle-grade elixir, can be used to enhance one’s cultivation during the Qi-refining mid stage.
Breakthrough Elixir, high-quality elixir, can be used for Qi-refining mid stage breakthrough to Qi-refining late stage.
Spirit Qi Recovery Elixir, high -quality elixir, used by Qi-refining late stage cultivators to recover their spirit power.
Qi Condensing Elixir, high-quality elixir, can be used to enhance one’s cultivation during the Qi-refining late stage.
Vein Protection Elixir, high-quality elixir, can be used during the Qi Refining great perfection breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.
He Song started learning from the Inedia Elixir, and after he became proficient in refining it, he began to try refining the Qi Nourishing Elixir.
After mastering the Qi Nourishing Elixir, he started trying the Qi-Gathering Elixir.
Now, He Song could proficiently refine the Qi-Gathering Elixir and was trying to refine the Qi Condensing Elixir for consumption during the Qi-refining late stage.
Although the Qi Condensing Elixir, Breakthrough Elixir, Vein Protection Elixir, and Spirit Qi Recovery Elixir were all high-quality elixirs, their difficulty in refining was the easiest among the four high-quality elixirs.
Therefore, He Song naturally started with the easiest and prepared to refine the Qi Condensing Elixir first, before attempting the Breakthrough Elixir, Vein Protection Elixir, and Spirit Qi Recovery Elixir.
In this way, he could progress step by step, allowing his Elixir Refinement Skill to grow sufficiently.
When the spirit medicines in his Medicine Garden matured later, he would be able to maximize his profits.
As for the spirit medicines in the Medicine Garden.
If they were sold directly, their prices would be on the lower side.
However, if He Song refined them into elixirs first and then sold them.
The returns would be astonishing.
Even if He Song practiced with these spirit medicines, there would be a lot of losses, but his Elixir Refinement Skill would be improving as well.
Thus, He Song’s cost of learning Elixir Refinement Skill would naturally be reduced considerably.
If calculated properly, He Song would still make more.
Not only could his Elixir Refinement Skill achieve tremendous improvement, but he could also sell more spirit stones.
Both aspects were perfect-
Just like that.
Until now.
Three years later, today.
One day.
He Song woke up from his cultivation, and after calculating the time, he had a sudden realization in his heart.
“The spirit medicines in the Medicine Garden have matured..”
