Chapter 108 - 107: Steward of the Immortal Pavilion
First, naturally, he would replace the two low-grade Artifacts in his hands, one for offense and one for defense, with two mid-grade Artifacts for offense and defense.
Second, he would purchase high-quality spirit amulets and life-saving spirit amulets for protection and escaping danger.
Third…
He Song pondered for a long time but couldn’t think of what else he needed to do.
Skills? The studying time for high-quality skills was quite long, and if he went to buy them now, he might not even master them until a year later.
It would be of no help for his upcoming trip to Green Wall Immortal City.
With that, He Song simply shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
With Wei Fan accompanying him, the two Qi-refining late-stage cultivators didn’t have to worry too much about encountering danger.
Even if they did encounter danger, he could escape using a life-saving spirit amulet.
If a real fight happened, as long as he maintained his normal Qi-refining late-stage combat strengtn, It would De enougn.
Having one offensive and one defensive mid-grade Artifact, as well as some high-quality spirit amulets on hand, He Song’s combat power was also guaranteed.
At least, he wouldn’t be defeated quickly.
Thinking this way, He Song relaxed a bit, knowing that his more than a thousand spirit stones should be enough to change Artifacts and buy high-quality spirit amulets and life-saving spirit amulets.
“Brother Wei, since Lao Meng has invited us, when should we head to Green
Wall Immortal City? If you are in a hurry, I can prepare right away.”
Not needing to sell spirit rice, He Song naturally asked about their itinerary.
Meng Guan was in Green Wall Immortal City, He Song and Wei Fan had to hurry there.
After all, Meng Guan didn’t have much time left.
With less than a month left before he turned sixty, he wanted to make a breakthrough to Foundation Establishment before that age, so he had to seize every minute of this less than a month.
Meng Guan needed to make his body reach its peak state and then attempt to break through.
And this less than a month’s time was crucial.
“This matter came somewhat hastily, so let’s prepare and set off for Green Wall Immortal City tomorrow morning. At that time, with the two of us traveling together, there’s no need to worry about any problems,” Wei Fan said thoughtfully, his gaze occasionally falling on He Song. He was clearly still shocked at He Song’s breakthrough speed.
However, he soon seemed to remember something and slapped his forehead suddenly.
“Ah right, friend, since you’ve successfully broken through to the Qi-refining late-stage, if you don’t leave the Immortal Pavilion, you can just choose a department to serve as a Steward, and the Immortal Pavilion will also allocate a courtyard for you.”
“I wonder…”
Wei Fan’s eyes flashed a hint of happiness when he looked at He Song.
He Song had successfully broken through to the Qi-refining late-stage, and his own cultivation level was at the same stage.
He suddenly had a good friend at the Qi-refining late-stage cultivation level.
Naturally, as He Song’s friend, if he encountered any problems in the future, He Song’s current cultivation level should be able to help him out as well.
Now, the small circle that once belonged to just He Song, Wei Fan, and Meng Guan finally had all its members reach the Qi-refining late-stage.
This way, if something really happened, he wouldn’t be struggling alone.
Strength in numbers, that’s what it meant.
He already guessed in his heart if He Song would stay in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion or not.
Considering He Song’s careful personality, there was a good chance he would continue to stay in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.
That way, their combined influence within Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion would naturally be different than before.
After all, they were now two Qi-refining late-stage cultivators.
“I came to see Brother Wei for this matter,” He Song said when Wei Fan asked about his intentions, explaining why he had come to Spirit Construction Pavilion immediately after consolidating his cultivation.
As he had guessed, He Song’s goal was to raise his position and move into a courtyard in the inner circle of the pavilion.
He had previously lived in Wei Fan’s small courtyard and hadn’t forgotten its advantages even now.
Not only was the spirit Qi denser.
Most importantly, he wouldn’t have to pay spirit stones for the allocated courtyard!
It would save all the rent.
And it was a permanent residence!
As long as He Song didn’t leave, he could continue living there, a great bargain indeed.
However, it was a bit close to Master Cheng Shan.
Most of the courtyards in the inner circle were within Master Cheng Shan’s divine sense scanning range.
He Song needed to choose a courtyard that was farther away from Cheng Shan, otherwise, if Cheng Shan scanned with his divine sense, he might detect something.
The Illusion Array, after all, was just an introductory Array Skill, and it couldn’t defend against divine sense scanning.
This was also the reason why He Song didn’t open a spirit field in a place where cultivators were always coming and going.
Only by staying out of the scanning range of Master Cheng Shan and other Foundation Establishment cultivators’ divine sense would He Song’s abnormalities remain undiscovered.
Alternatively, if He Song could get an Array Skill capable of shielding divine sense, it wouldn’t matter where he lived.
Just that…
After finishing the Array Tao Introduction, He Song had tried to inquire about the follow- up Array Tao Primary Introduction.
But he found out that to continue learning the Array Tao Primary Introduction, he needed to join the Thick Earth Sect.
Or, he could see if someone was selling it and buy it with spirit stones.
With no other option, He Song had to give up on continuing to study array tao and focused most of his attention on cultivating and studying Amulet Tao Introduction instead.
This was why his cultivation level increased so rapidly.
“No problem, friend, I can notify them on your behalf regarding your position as Steward. All you need to do is show your token at any department you want to join. As for the courtyard allocation, you can choose at will,” Wei Fan said when he saw that He Song had no intentions of leaving the Immortal Pavilion. As if he had prepared it earlier, he took out two things from his storage bag.
One was a token.
The other was a map.
“With this token, you can obtain a Steward position in any department you want. It’s up to you where you want to go. ”
“On this map, you can choose any courtyard that is not marked with an ‘X’. However, it’s better to choose one closer to the center, as the spirit Qi concentration will be higher,” Wei Fan advised as he placed both items on the table.
He Song took the token and looked at the map.
After searching for a moment, he chose a secluded courtyard more than three miles away from Master Cheng Shan, located in a rather remote area.
Foundation Establishment cultivators, even those in the early stage, their divine sense covered a range of about two miles.
To avoid living within the range of a Foundation Establishment cultivator’s divine sense, He Song had no choice but to choose a courtyard that was far enough away.
Fortunately, Foundation Establishment cultivators generally didn’t release their divine sense and only did so when they needed to investigate something or during a battle.
Scanning with divine sense consumed divine sense power.
At the same time, the scanned cultivators would feel an extreme resentment toward the R011rcp of the divine sense
In the Cultivation World, scanning others with divine sense was considered taboo..
