Chapter 598: 501: Seclusive Cultivation Again!
The war continues.
One-Yang Sect and God Locking Sect, these two powerful sects of the Nascent Soul stage, are still incessantly sending disciples to the battlefield.
In this situation.
Who knows what will happen next?
If there is a sudden turn of events and He Song rashly returns to the Green Moon Immortal State, wouldn’t his situation immediately become passive?
In case the God Locking Sect’s army is at their doorstep again, He Song might have to repeat the act of fleeing in a hurry.
In that case, it would be more harm than good.
Therefore, even though knowing that the war between One-Yang Sect and God Locking Sect has reached a deadlock,
and the One-Yang Sect has gained some advantages, He Song, who is currently heading towards Cloud State Mansion, has no intention of returning to Green Moon Immortal State immediately.
Green Moon Immortal State’s location is just too awkward.
Indeed, it’s too close to the battlefield.
As a result, after learning about this, He Song eventually chose to continue his closed-door cultivation until now.
Eight years have passed.
The latest news that He Song received was from Meng Guan.
In the most recent letter, Meng Guan informed He Song that the One-Yang Sect was preparing to attack Cloud State Mansion soon.
He Song, who has been aware for a long time that the war between the One-Yang Sect and the God Locking Sect has been locked in a stalemate, and the sieges of each immortal city have lasted for a long time,
his heart did not have much fluctuation.
This news was not unexpected for He Song.
Based on the information he’s received continuously over the past eight years, He Song has enough understanding of this war.
From his understanding of the current battlefield, this progress is still normal.
After all, the One-Yang Sect has gained a slight advantage and has taken back several immortal cities from the hands of the God Locking Sect over a long period.
It took years for the One-Yang Sect to advance to the outskirts of Cloud State Mansion, and now they are set to attack the Cloud State Mansion soon, which is not beyond He Song’s expectation.
However, who will win and who will lose in this battle, He Song also cannot predict.
After all, although the One-Yang Sect has a slight advantage, the advantage is somewhat elusive unless it is an overwhelming one.
A careless command, a battle that turns the tide, and a cultivator killed by accident.
All these factors could easily turn the slight advantage into a disadvantage.
And on the battlefield, such subtle changes are very likely to happen.
Naturally, He Song couldn’t figure out the outcome of this battle.
However, since both Meng Guan and Wei Fan needed to participate in this battle, He Song could only reply to the letter, telling them to be extra careful.
Apart from that, He Song couldn’t do anything else.
At the time when these thoughts flashed through He Song’s mind, and he was unconsciously refining the Array Disk and Array Banners of the Spirit-Gathering Array,
a brand new Array Disk and several Array Banners were perfectly crafted in the process of him unconsciously refining them.
When the newly refined Array Disk and Array Banners quietly landed in He Song’s hands, a trace of satisfaction appeared on his face as he glanced over them.
Although he hadn’t paid any attention to the Array Disk and Array Banners’ refining process due to the thoughts passing through his mind,
his current refining techniques, which had already allowed him to refine a lower-grade Spiritual Tool, had produced a perfect Array Disk and Array Banners needed to set up the Spirit-Gathering Array.
After successfully refining the Array Disk and Array Banners needed for the Spirit-Gathering Array,
He Song casually put them into his storage bag, then left the Artifact Refining Room and went to the center of the cave mansion.
He looked up.
His eyes swept over the cave mansion, which presented an inverted bowl-shaped structure.
He Song performed a technique, and a series of auroras shot out from his hands, quickly landing at various locations in the cave mansion.
When these auroras had disappeared into the ground one after another and started to take effect rapidly under He Song’s continuous technique,
the density of the spiritual energy in the cave mansion began to slowly increase.
As a complete Spirit-Gathering Array, the gathering effect of the one just set up by He Song was much stronger than that of the Divine Thunder Array.
This fact was something He Song had known for a long time.
However, He Song did not dismantle the Divine Thunder Array after setting up the Spirit-Gathering Array.
Even though the speed and density of the spiritual energy gathered by the Spirit-Gathering Array were much stronger than the Divine Thunder Array,
the Divine Thunder Array still had the ability to conceal, attack, and defend.
These multiple functions, although making each feature of the Divine Thunder Array relatively weak,
however, they are all useful.
The amount of spirit stones consumed was also significantly less than other Golden Elixir Arrays.
This place was He Song’s temporary cave dwelling, not a permanent residence.
Therefore, there was no need for strong defensive capabilities and offensive powers, and even the concealment effect provided by the Divine Thunder Array was enough to support him.
Under such circumstances, there was no need for He Song to dismantle the Divine Thunder Array and set up other Golden Elixir Arrays outside the cave mansion.
That would be too costly in terms of spirit stones.
A single Divine Thunder Array consumed hundreds of mid-grade spirit stones each year.
If He Song dismantled the Divine Thunder Array and set up a Phantom Tracing Array, an Earth-Concealing Divine Light Array, and another Golden Elixir Array for offense,
these arrays combined would consume one or two thousand spirit stones each year.
If the closed-door cultivation time is longer, even just ten years, the consumption would amount to tens of thousands of spirit stones.
