Chapter 264 - 264: 256: Golden Core Path

Wei Fan didn’t beat around the bush either.

After casually asking a question, he didn’t wait for He Song to speak up but continued on his own.

“The so-called Golden Core Path is the journey towards the Golden Core Realm after reaching the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.” “To break through from Foundation Establishment Great Perfection to the

Golden Elixir Realm.”

“One needs to gather all the mana within the body, refine it through secret methods, and congeal it into a Golden Elixir.”

“This process of congealing the Golden Elixir is the Golden Core Path.”

“Without the aid of special techniques and elixirs, it would be extremely difficult for ordinary Foundation Establishment Masters to break through to the Golden Core.”

At this point, Wei Fan shook his head and sighed, his eyes flashing with a hint of desire for cultivation.

However, soon enough,

The light in his eyes quickly dimmed.

Seemingly thinking of something, Wei Fan paused before speaking again.

“These special techniques and elixirs are the tools to overcome obstacles on the

Golden Core Path.”

“Without such tools, how can one enter the Golden Core realm?”

“Whether it’s the Thick Earth Sect or other Golden Core sects, as long as they have produced Golden Core cultivators, they must have such secret methods.” “At the same time, by spending a huge amount of resources, one can also exchange for some Golden Congealing Elixir Pills from Nascent Soul Upper

Sect.”

“These Golden Congealing Elixir Pills are the elixirs needed in addition to the secret techniques. ”

“With the sect’s secret techniques and the Golden Congealing Elixir Pills, one would have the confidence to tread on the Golden Core Path.”

“However, these things are out of our reach.”

“There’s an order in the sect that only the sect’s elites are qualified to compete for these things.”

“As for us loose cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage, we can only rely on ourselves.”

Having said that,

Wei Fan looked at He Song.

The bitterness in his eyes flashed by.

At the time he received this information, he felt that his future seemed bleak, even thinking about leaving the Thick Earth Sect and finding other opportunities elsewhere.

However, in the end, after discussing with Meng Guan, they decided to stay in the Thick Earth Sect for the time being.

After all, the Thick Earth Sect had provided the two of them with many resources and conveniences.

In both emotion and reason, they should give back something.

However, after learning about this news, expecting them to continue to follow the Thick Earth Sect without question as they had in the past, That could truly only be considered a foolish dream.

If you treat me as a loyal official, I will repay you as such.

If you don’t treat me as a loyal official, I don’t need to repay you as such.

Although the two had obtained quite a few benefits from the Thick Earth Sect, given their status as Foundation Establishment Masters maintaining the Immortal Pavilion and Immortal City for the sect, wasn’t that considered repayment?

Over the years, the profits from the Immortal Pavilions and Cities they had guarded were not insignificant.

Yet they only received an annual salary of three thousand spirit stones and didn’t take a single cent more.

Moreover,

When Meng Guan was attempting Foundation Establishment, he didn’t see the Thick Earth Sect sending several Foundation Establishment Elixirs.

It was only after Meng Guan’s Foundation Establishment that he brought He Song and Wei Fan into the Thick Earth Sect, truly accepting the sect’s favor.

But that was based on the investment made after Meng Guan had reached Foundation Establishment and had value to be utilized.

After Wei Fan’s first Foundation Establishment failure, the second Foundation Establishment Elixir was obtained by the three emptying their pockets and exchanging spirit stones for it.

Although the price was much cheaper than the outside world, after Wei Fan’s Foundation Establishment, didn’t he immediately become a Thick Earth Sect elder?

The same went for He Song.

?Although he exchanged many Foundation Establishment Elixirs, he still paid for them with spirit stones.

More importantly, after his successful Foundation Establishment, he quickly became an elder of the Thick Earth Sect and guarded one of its territories.

In all these years, had there been any chaos in the Herbs Immortal Workshop he guarded?

There wasn’t.

He Song could have reached Foundation Establishment without joining the Thick Earth Sect.

It’s just that he would have needed to go elsewhere and join another sect to obtain techniques for Foundation Establishment, which wasn’t too troublesome.

A Foundation Establishment Master guarding the Immortal Workshop diligently for more than twenty years must have been more than enough to repay the sect’s favor.

Meng Guan and Wei Fan joined the Thick Earth Sect even earlier than He Song, and they had even participated in the war against the Seven Star Sect.

They fought fiercely in the war, risking their lives.

Subsequently, they helped the Thick Earth Sect guard the Immortal Pavilions and Cities for more than twenty years.

The time of more than twenty years for a Foundation Establishment Master.

The value they could create was evident and needless to say.

So, adding it all up,

The favor had mostly been repaid.

The Thick Earth Sect was somewhat kind to the three of them.

But it wasn’t a great favor that required them to repay with their lives.

Since they had been treated unfairly in the Thick Earth Sect, they naturally wouldn’t continue to foolishly sacrifice themselves for the sect.

For this reason, upon truly learning the difference between loose cultivators at Foundation Establishment stage and sect elites, their perception of the Thick Earth Sect changed time and time again.

After feeling that they had almost repaid the favor,

Their attitude towards the Thick Earth Sect had shifted from extremely advocating to just slacking off.

This change took only a few short years.

However, when facing others, their attitudes remained the same as before, with no significant changes.

The changes in their hearts were kept within.

Only during their private meetings would they speak of it.

Now, a few months after He Song’s arrival, the two finally spoke about their thoughts and the matters related to the Golden Core Path, wanting to see He Song’s reaction.

Listening to Wei Fan’s words, He Song’s brows slightly furrowed.

Golden Congealing Elixir Pill.

Golden Core secret techniques.

He didn’t have either of these two essential items for stepping onto the Golden Core Path.

Moreover, if he stayed in the Thick Earth Sect, even if it took forever, it would be extremely difficult for him to obtain these two items.

After all, the Thick Earth Sect was no charity organization, and these precious items related to the sect’s lifeblood would definitely not be given to loose cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage.

Even for the sect elites, obtaining the Golden Congealing Elixir Pill and Golden Core secret techniques would likely be extremely difficult.

In the Thick Earth Sect, there were quite a few sect elites.

Moreover, there were many cultivators who had long reached the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection but were stuck due to the lack of these two things, unable to advance further.

They…

Were the ones who desperately needed these two things the most.

Even if one day the Thick Earth Sect managed to obtain the Golden Congealing Elixir Pill at a huge cost, there would likely be intense internal strife within the sect.

This was an opportunity to step into the Golden Core Realm!

In the Golden Elixir Realm, one’s lifespan would be five hundred years, and if one consumed some lifeprolonging heavenly materials, elixirs, and so on, they could extend their lifespan even further.

Such a chance would hardly be something anyone would want to give up on.

However, the number of Golden Congealing Elixir Pills would undoubtedly be limited, maybe even only one.

In such a situation, the allocation of the pill could indeed cause intense fighting.

Even elite disciples of the sect would fight fiercely over it.

Loose cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage like himself wouldn’t even have the chance to compete.

As he looked at his two friends in front of him, He Song sighed in his heart.

It was only now…

that he understood the reason behind the drastic change in Meng Guan and Wei Fan’s attitudes towards the Thick Earth Sect.

“It’s not the scarcity that bothers them, but the unfairness.” He Song could now fathom the change in attitudes of his two friends.

Frankly…

If he were in their shoes, realizing that they were excluded from the great fortune in front of them due to their identity, He Song would likely be upset as well.

Meng Guan and Wei Fan simply began to slack off and hoped to leave after repaying their debts to the sect, which was already considered quite good.

After repaying their debts and leaving the Thick Earth Sect, they would naturally continue their search for opportunities.

But by then…

The ties between them and the Thick Earth Sect would also be severed.

This was something He Song understood as well.

In the vast Thick Earth Sect, they were essentially outsiders.

So was He Song.

“So this is what it’s like, the Golden Core Path is so difficult.”

“Golden Congealing Elixir Pill.”

“Golden Core secret techniques.”

“These two are the two great mountains that must be climbed to advance on the Golden Core Path.”

“If we want to continue improving our cultivation, these two mountains must be moved aside.”

“Unfortunately, it seems that we loose cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage are unable to find ways to progress in the Thick Earth Sect.”

“I suppose, the reason behind Brother Wei’s previous behavior was this matter, right?”

Sighing, He Song looked up at Wei Fan. Although he asked, he had already made up his mind in his heart.

Everything that Wei Fan had said before was related to this matter.

Wei Fan and Meng Guan’s change in attitude towards the Thick Earth Sect was also related to this matter.

This…

Was what truly mattered to Wei Fan and Meng Guan.

As for fleeing from enemies and prioritizing safety, those words were all built upon this premise.

If they could participate in the competition for the Golden Congealing Elixir Pill and the Golden Core secret techniques, perhaps the situation would be completely different.

“Don’t worry about being scarce, worry about unfairness” was the true reflection of the two’s thoughts at this moment.

He Song had finally grasped the true situation.

“Indeed, I thought that once I joined the Thick Earth Sect, the path ahead would be smooth.”

“But I never thought that our situation would be so awkward.”

“Although we are in the Foundation Establishment Realm, we aren’t even allowed to compete at all.”

“Even though I would have done the same if I were in their shoes.”

“But…”

“The frustration lingers in my heart. ”

Shaking his head, Wei Fan looked at Meng Guan on one side and then at He Song on the other, finally letting out a long sigh.

“Sigh!”

Faced with this situation, He Song remained silent.

Meng Guan and Wei Fan were different from him.

They were ordinary cultivators who might have some opportunities but judging from their cultivation progress, it was probably not any great fortune.

Thus, breaking through the Foundation Establishment Realm and stepping into the Golden Core Realm wouldn’t be easy for them.

As a result, their pursuit of the Golden Congealing Elixir Pill and the Golden Core secret techniques would naturally be extremely strong.

But…

The rules within the Thick Earth Sect directly crushed their desires, rendering everything in vain.

With no avenues for ascent…

Their change in mindset naturally followed.

If He Song wasn’t an everlasting being, he would likely experience a similar change of heart under such discrimination.

So, in the end, it was no surprise that they would consider leaving the Thick Earth Sect and seeking opportunities elsewhere.

No one wants to remain ordinary forever.

This was…

True for ordinary people…

And for cultivators.

Everyone wanted to climb higher and reach the top.

But now, the channels for advancement were artificially blocked.

If they stayed in the Thick Earth Sect, they might waste their entire lives.

If they didn’t seek other opportunities…

Should they just wait for their demise?

Wei Fan and Meng Guan didn’t want to wait for death.

They wanted to fight for their own opportunities, not letting their lives be buried in the long river of time.

Thus, after repaying their debts to the Thick Earth Sect… Leaving the sect became a clearer and clearer path in their hearts..
