Chapter 231 - 231: 223: Surge in Strength
This “killing two birds with one stone” situation made He Song couldn’t help but sigh that learning about array tao was the right choice.
At the same time as He Song continuously consolidated his cultivation.
In his mind, he also recalled the gains he had made in these three years.
In these three years.
He Song’s cultivation of Divine Profound Body Refining Skill had not stopped for a moment.
Because of this.
His physical body had become quite strong by now.
Three years ago, He Song had already practiced the Divine Profound Body Refining Skill for a year.
With these three years added.
He Song’s practice of Divine Profound Body Refining Skill had lasted for a total of four years.
Four years.
Although not too long.
But even if calculated based on the lifespan of a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, it was definitely not short.
In these four years, He Song’s physical body gradually grew stronger, although his appearance remained unchanged.
Even with his body alone, he could have killed a Qi Refining Early Stage cultivator.
At this time, He Song’s body contained enough power to shatter a low-level Thick Earth Amulet.
Although his defense wasn’t enough to block spirit amulet’s attacks, it was much stronger than it was four years ago.
At least.
Just relying on his physical strength, he could have his way in the mortal world.
If he encountered a Qi Refining Early Stage cultivator, he could fight them with just his body alone.
Of course, with He Song’s current Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation, the increase in combat power due to body refining was minimal.
Practicing this method was nothing more than a precautionary measure, providing him with some backup.
Who knows if one day, he would end up back in the mortal world.
With such a strong body, he could at least have some confidence while walking in the mortal world.
Divine Profound Body Refining Skill.
As for practicing it with his current Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation.
Naturally, it was much stronger than practicing other body refining skills during the Qi Refining stage.
When practicing the Divine Profound Body Refining Skill with a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation, He Song’s physical strength naturally increased faster.
This was why, after only practicing Divine Profound Body Refining Skill for four years, his body had changed significantly from before.
Apart from the progress regarding the Divine Profound Body Refining Skill.
In these three years, He Song had not let go of his practice of skills at all.
At the beginning, He Song spent a full two years.
Completely mastering the sealing skill that could seal a person or object with no means to break the seal unless the correct method was used or the opponent’s cultivation was not higher than his.
And, he had reached the level of being able to effortlessly use it without losing any power.
In the following year.
He Song began practicing the Soul Splitting Skill, which could cause intense pain to his enemies and was especially used for torture.
Although he had not yet reached the level of being able to freely cast the skill without losing any power.
He Song believed that given another year, he would be able to practice the Soul Splitting Skill to freely cast it without losing any power.
Even so.
He Song’s methods were more abundant than they were three years ago.
In the future, if there was any need for the sealing skill, this auxiliary method might be able to bring about miraculous effects.
Sealing Skill.
Soul SDIittinc Skill.
These two skills were ones he learned during those ten years at the Thick Earth Sect and noted in the Book Collection Pavilion.
Now, starting to practice them one by one, it could be considered that those spirit stones spent back then were not wasted.
Apart from that.
In these three years.
He Song had been constantly receiving news from the outside world.
Meng Guan’s cultivation had already reached the Mid-stage Foundation
Establishment, and he had been reassigned from his original post at the Flame Prosperous Immortal Pavilion to the Heaven Power Immortal City above the Flame Prosperous Immortal Pavilion.
As for the Flame Prosperous Immortal Pavilion, which he originally guarded, another Foundation Establishment Realm master had come to take over.
On this, Wei Fan kept sighing in his letter exchanges with He Song, saying that finding Meng Guan in the future would probably be more troublesome than before.
He Song told him that Heaven Power Immortal City was not far from Green Spirit Immortal Pavilion, and as long as he was careful not to be discovered, no one would know he had been there.
As for Su Yan, who they had met in Green Wall Immortal City before, she chose to try breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm before her sixtieth birthday.
Unfortunately, she failed in her attempt and was seriously injured.
Although she had taken a Vein Protection Elixir when attempting to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, she still needed a full ten years to recover from her injuries.
After a long silence, He Song finally sighed.
Foundation Establishment was as difficult as climbing the sky.
Otherwise, there would be no Heaven Ascending Inn in Green Wall Immortal City.
Su Yan’s failure in establishing her foundation was quite normal.
Zhao Lin, who had already been sent to guard other Immortal Pavilions, kept probing He Song for news during these three years.
He must have sensed the danger from the union of the four sects.
As a cultivator similar to He Song in the way of survival, Zhao Lin was now a valuable Foundation Establishment master, but he was still as scared of death as before.
When faced with any dangerous situations, he always silently moved to the back of the crowd.
This time was no exception.
He Song didn’t say much about it; he just told Zhao Lin that the union of the four sects was not a bad thing, and that he could rest assured.
During these three years, Master Qingyue, Ping’er, and Yue’er occasionally sent voice messages to He Song.
Master Qingyue’s message informed He Song of various inside stories of the Four Great Sects’ union.
Ping’er’s message was about obtaining some knowledge concerning the way of survival from He Song.
Yue’er’s message was because Ping’er wanted her to learn some ways of survival from He Song.
Apart from messages, Ping’er and Yue’er occasionally visited He Song’s Herbs Immortal Workshop, bringing him some rare and interesting items.
After all, He Song’s relationship with the two of them had grown closer.
At least now.
Every time Yue’er saw He Song, she greeted him with a smile and called him “Martial Uncle” with great intimacy.
However, He Song didn’t really care about this.
Three years passed.
He immersed himself in cultivating almost every moment.
He was not very enthusiastic about matters outside the cultivation.
Naturally, he didn’t care much about Yue’er’s smile either.
It could be said that,
In these three years, other than cultivating, He Song only had a slight understanding of other things and then put them out of his mind.
Since closing himself off for seclusive cultivation three years ago, He Song had been immersed in it.
He vowed not to give up without achieving his goal.
Now,
Three years have passed.
He Song’s cultivation had finally broken through to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment stage.
His strength surged dramatically.
His mana increased.
His divine sense was enhanced.
The power of the skills he executed grew larger.
The power of the artifacts he wielded also underwent a drastic change as He Song’s cultivation broke through.
Under such circumstances, He Song’s strength was much stronger than in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment.
The only pity was,
The strength of the four Great Spirit Puppets he had refined, Qing Feng, Mingyue, Xianyun, and Ye He, remained the same and did not increase due to his breakthrough in cultivation.
The strength of spirit puppets depended on their exquisite refining skill and the support of strong refining materials.
Only when these two conditions were met, along with a core with enough spirituality, could a powerful spirit puppet be refined.
As for this, He Song was powerless.
He had the exquisite refining skill, but no strong refining material.
He also had no core with enough spirituality.
Aside from the exquisite refining skill, He Song had neither materials nor core.
He couldn’t help it.
To improve his own cultivation, the spirit stones on his body had been spent like flowing water.
At this moment, He Song’s spirit stones were already running low.
However, the spirit field he planted has not yet reached the time of harvest.
As such, spending spirit stones to buy better materials turned out to be an empty talk.
As for the core with enough spirituality,
That was a matter of luck.
The stronger and more ferocious the soul that was put into the spirit puppet’s core during refining, the more spiritual the resulting core would be.
He Song didn’t want to go out and look for demonic beasts with such cores until he got strong enough materials.
The strength of these demonic beasts must not be underestimated.
Whether they could be defeated was still a question.
It was precisely because of these conditions that,
The four spirit puppets he refined could not be strengthened.
Fortunately,
Although the strength of the four spirit puppets will not increase, it will not fall either.
As long as they maintained this state, even if He Song’s cultivation reached the peak of Foundation Establishment, these four spirit puppets would still be of help to him.
Now that He Song’s cultivation was only at the mid-stage of Foundation
Establishment, the assistance of these four spirit puppets was still significant.
However,
After breaking through to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, He Song began to ponder how he could earn some spirit stones.
It had only been six years since He Song planted those spirit medicines and spirit rice.
Six years was a short time.
The majority of the spirit medicines planted by He Song took ten years to mature, and it would still take four more years before they could be harvested and exchanged for spirit stones.
Dragon Tooth Spirit Rice had been harvested once.
He received ten thousand catties of rice.
However, since Dragon Tooth Spirit Rice was rare in yield, He Song didn’t plan to plant it on a large scale.
The ten acres of spirit fields he had opened up were actually just for him to eat
Dragon Tooth Spirit Rice every day.
As for selling,
This rice was what He Song had planted specifically to improve his cultivation as soon as possible.
How could it be sold?
In this situation,
With limited spirit stones on hand, He Song would probably have to find another way to obtain spirit stones in the next four years.
Otherwise, he could only exhaust his resources and slow down the pace of his cultivation progress.
He Song, who had just broken through to the Mid-stage Foundation
Establishment,
Naturally, he would not tolerate his cultivation slowing down.
As a Foundation Establishment Master,
If he even lacked spirit stones for cultivating, wasn’t it something to be laughed at?
Despite saying that,
He Song was somewhat troubled about how to earn spirit stones in the next four years.
Would he have to resort to robbing?
Robbing spirit stones too often could lead to foul play eventually.
If he really robbed someone who pretended to be a weakling but was actually very powerful, he might lose his life in the process.
But if he didn’t resort to robbery,
How could he earn enough spirit stones to cover his expenses?
Could it be….
