Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 448: 426: Golden Elixir Cave Mansion_2

Meanwhile, He Song, taking advantage of the fact that no one from the Thick Earth Sect had yet arrived, left the sect and arrived within the sphere of influence of the Sun Faction.

He has settled down in his current hidden cave mansion.

Subsequent to this incident, He Song still hasn’t heard any rumors.

However, he knew.

The Thick Earth Sect must be aware of the incident, and there might still be someone from the sect investigating near the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

If at this moment,

A stranger in the Golden Elixir Early Stage suddenly visited the Thick Earth Sect,

Added to the fact that there seemed to be a major disturbance within the sect,

These two incidents combined might be hard not to draw attention to themselves.

If it were He Song,

He would probably link these two incidents and harbor a little suspicion towards the sudden visitor in the Golden Elixir Early Stage.

Could this person…could this be the Golden Elixir Master who had previously caused a commotion near the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion?

Thinking of the scene at that time, He Song became even more determined in his decision to give up those medicine gardens.

“Forget it, they’re just some gardens. The loss is a little over a million spirit stones; it doesn’t matter if I lose them.”

“At worst, I could open some more gardens within the influence of the Sun Faction to make up for the losses.”

In the meditation chamber, He Song shook his head, casting aside the dangerous thoughts in his head.

Opening the chamber,

He Song’s eyes swept across the hidden cave mansion in front of him, quickly planning the location of his future residence.

Currently, the place where He Song resided was a hidden cave mansion he had developed beforehand.

This hidden mansion, built for refuge by He Song, was very simple inside.

Aside from safety, it seemed to lack other advantages.

Because of this,

After cultivating in seclusion for as long as ten years, his strength in the Golden Elixir Realm had grown stronger,

He Song naturally started contemplating the idea of changing his residence.

Changing residences, for He Song who had already reached the early stage of the Golden Elixir Realm, was relatively simple.

Even if Yu’er had grown considerably and would attract attention if she were to leave with him, He Song paid it no mind.

After all, in the Cultivation World, there wouldn’t be any Golden Elixir Master who worries about drawing too much attention.

However,

He did not need to worry about safety while on the move,

But he needed to think carefully about his final destination.

For He Song, now at the Golden Elixir Realm, continuing to build his cave mansion near the Immortal Pavilion, or Immortal City, wasn’t particularly necessary.

Aside from making his cave more hidden and less likely to be found easily, it wouldn’t help He Song much.

But, if he were to build his Golden Elixir cave mansion next to the Immortal State Mansion,

Once the Golden Elixir mansion was successfully built, he would have to face many problems.

Close by is the Immortal State Mansion. The Golden Elixir Masters inside it would always pose a threat to He Song.

Though He Song is now a Golden Elixir Master, and his strength is almost equal to that of Golden Elixir Masters from famous schools and Nascent Soul Upper Sects,

Nevertheless, the Golden Elixir Masters who live in the Immortal State Mansion have their cultivation bases and numbers on their side.

Among the Golden Elixir Masters in the Immortal State Mansion, some are elders of the Sun Faction, acting as Master Guardians here.

Others have some connections with the Sun Faction, having established families or other powers in the Immortal State Mansion.

As for others, like He Song originating from a Golden Elixir faction, or some who have already established their own powers outside,

In the Immortal State Mansion, despite earning respect due to their Golden Elixir Realm cultivation,

If they offend someone there,

Especially offend someone from the Sun Faction,

They would probably face encirclement and attacks from several Golden Elixir Masters, even encirclement and assassination.

Of course, those who, like He Song, originated from a Golden Elixir faction or who have already established their own powers outside,

Would generally not live in the Immortal State Mansion.

In the Immortal State Mansion, the number of resident Golden Elixir Masters isn’t high; most Golden Elixir Masters basically stay in the factions they built or that helped their growth.

Just like Master Fa Xuan of the Thick Earth Sect, as well as Master Yan Shan, who stay in the Thick Earth Sect all the year round.

If He Song were to build his cave mansion near Immortal State Mansion or simply reside permanently within Immortal State Mansion.

Basically, he would not find like-minded people to band together.

Moreover, He Song himself prefers peace, so he is even less likely to form a group with other Golden Elixir Masters.

In such a situation.

If he inadvertently offended someone in Immortal State Mansion.

What would await He Song, might be endless troubles or even fatal dangers.

Besides.

Building his Golden Elixir Cave Mansion near Immortal State Mansion, he would also need to worry about if his cave mansion would be discovered.

After all, it would be a permanent residence, not just a temporary one.

Therefore, every time He Song would go out, he must leave his mansion.

If by chance evil-doers would follow, or use tracking magic to detect the location of He Song’s mansion.

He Song would have difficulty finding peace in the future.

To avoid such situations, every time He Song went out, he must make many preparations.

Even when returning to his own mansion, he would need to be cautious.

In this way, living in fear every day will be a mental torture.

Because of this, when He Song was choosing the location of his future mansion, he was extremely cautious.

This mansion.

Is unlike any before.

It would be his permanent dwelling place, where he would stay for at least hundreds of years, if not longer.

In such a long period of time, all possible circumstances have to be taken into account.

Even if he couldn’t achieve perfection, he must at least make sure not to create trouble for himself.

With this in mind.

He Song waved his hand.

The mana from within his body burst out, and a large map made of fine sand instantly formed in front of He Song.

A multitude of Immortal Pavilions, Immortal Cities, and locations of the Immortal State Mansions were all displayed on the map.

This was a detailed map of the Sun Faction.

That He Song had previously acquired.

With this map, He Song just needs to select a region he requires on the map, then go there to have a look, to determine if it’s suitable for his mansion.

As He Song’s gaze swept over the map made of fine sand.

Potential locations quickly appeared in He Song’s mind.

The Sun Faction has a vastly large territory.

Within its scope, there are hundreds of Immortal Cities, and as many as ten Immortal States.

Within such a large scope, there are naturally many areas He Song could select.

Although many places are occupied by other Golden Elixir Masters, He Song does not wish to found a sect here and become a legendary founding master.

He merely wants to establish a mansion in which he can permanently reside within these vast territories, and does not require much space.

Therefore, even with a quick glance, many potential locations have already been identified in He Song’s mind.

These locations.

Are all remote areas.

Neither too close nor too far from the Immortal State Mansions, using a lower grade spirit flying boat, it would also require a few days of travel.

But they are not far from the surrounding Immortal Cities and Pavilions, using a lower grade spirit flying boat, it only requires one or two hours.

In this way, He Song’s future wouldn’t be restricted by the Golden Elixir Masters of the Immortal State Mansions.

While allowing He Song to quickly enter the Immortal City to make purchases when needed.

He wouldn’t end up having a lot of spirit stones but not being able to buy the items he needs.

The vicinity of the Flying Cloud Immortal Pavilion, where He Song is now, is one of his choices.

This location is near the northern border of the Sun Faction and is considered to be a remote place.

But according to the speed of He Song’s lower grade spirit flying boat, it would only take a few days to get to the Cloud State Mansion.
