Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

But setting up several Golden Elixir Arrays outside his temporary cave mansion was still somewhat extravagant.

In this case, it’s better to use the Divine Thunder Array for the time being. After all, He Song wouldn’t leave this temporary cave mansion, so there was no need to worry about the functionality of the Divine Thunder Array running short.

In the event of an attack, simply set up the other Golden Elixir Arrays he had learned.

With the Divine Thunder Array holding off the initial onslaught, He Song would naturally be able to arrange his learned Arrays.

By that time, the effect would essentially be the same.

Besides, the terrifying consumption of spirit stones on a regular basis was absent.

In his temporary cave mansion, after he successfully set up a complete Spirit-Gathering Array, He Song felt quite satisfied as the concentration of spiritual energy within the cave mansion gradually increased.

Add to that, he had already been staying here for as long as eight years.

The soil inside the mansion had long been transformed into spirit soil by the rich spiritual energy and had been sown with many spirit medicines by He Song.

Now, a large number of spirit medicines were growing in the cave mansion, seeming to be thriving more and more.

The increase in spiritual energy concentration seemed to have boosted the growth rate of these spirit medicines.

Seeing such a scene, although he wasn’t sure if these changes were just his illusion or not.

But the thought quickly came to He Song’s heart.

Since these spirit medicines might grow faster when the concentration of spiritual energy increases,

Then would the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree, which had been kept in his storage bag, grow faster under such rich spiritual nourishment?

With such a thought flashing in his mind, He Song’s face immediately lit up.

Although he was not sure whether this was just his illusion or indeed the case.

But, for now, he shouldn’t be going back to Green Moon Immortal State.

Planting the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree here could also make it grow a bit.

As for whether this growth would be faster, He Song didn’t care too much.

No matter how fast, it couldn’t be very much faster anyway.

The Golden Spirit Fruit ripens once in a hundred years, and it was still a long way from maturation.

With this in mind, He Song quickly waved his hand, took out the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree from his storage bag.

The enormous Golden Spirit Fruit Tree was quickly planted in the very center of the cave mansion by He Song.

Here, under the sunlight from the Sun Pearl and the rich spiritual energy brought by the Spirit-Gathering Array, the tree’s branches and leaves quickly stretched out.

After the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree was planted, He Song pondered for a while, but eventually decided not to take out the Giant Cauldron used for crafting Life-Critical Treasure.

The Giant Cauldron was packed with materials for crafting Life-Critical Treasure, but He Song had not yet gathered all the required materials.

Therefore, there was no need to take it out in this temporary cave mansion.

When he had gathered all the necessary materials for crafting Life-Critical Treasure, he could take it out then, it won’t be too late.

With this in mind, He Song quickly turned around and went back to the Quiet Room.

Now.

Since the Spirit-Gathering Array had been set up,

And even the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree had been successfully planted.

The war between the Sun Faction and the God Locking Sect could not affect He Song here.

He Song didn’t need to worry about his personal safety.

So next, naturally, he would continue to practice in solitude, letting his cultivation level become even stronger under the enhancement of the Spirit-Gathering Array, Earth Spirit Elixir, and Heart Clearing Elixir.

In short, after setting up the Spirit-Gathering Array and planting the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree, He Song once again entered a state of solitude.

However,

Despite He Song once again entering the state of solitude, news from the outside world kept coming endlessly from afar.

Soon, He Song learned from Meng Guan that the Sun Faction’s attack on the Cloud State Mansion had been thwarted.

In the Cloud State Mansion.

There were many monks from the God Locking Sect, and it seemed that there were some new faces among them.

With the enemy suddenly becoming stronger, the assault launched by the Sun Faction naturally had to retreat fruitlessly.

Fortunately, in the realm of cultivation, individual combat strength is extremely strong, so both sides didn’t suffer many casualties. They could only say that they fought fiercely for a while, then separately retreated.

However, after this battle, the war between the Sun Faction and the God Locking Sect once again fell into a deadlock.

The numbers of Golden Core real people on both sides were roughly the same.

Even the number of Foundation Establishment stage cultivators was approximately the same for both sides.

Both had recalled many Late Foundation Establishment or full-circle Foundation Establishment cultivators who were journeying outside.

Golden Core cultivators who were generally seeking fortunes outside were also gradually summoned back, involved in this war.

However, with the increasing number of participants on both sides, their casualties surprisingly started to decrease.

When the numbers were equal.

And when the two sides’ power was not weak either.

Even for early Golden Core cultivators like Meng Guan and Wei Fan, the danger of falling had diminished significantly.

Everything seemed to be proceeding in an orderly manner, and the murderous intentions between both sides seemed to have quietly faded.

He Song didn’t know whether this situation was good or bad.

He didn’t know what shape this battle between both sides would eventually take.

He also reminded Meng Guan, this might be the calm before the storm.

Meng Guan did listen.

His previously relaxed attitude quickly grew more astute.

Next, He Song quickly received a communication from Master Luo Jing.

In the message, Master Luo Jing expressed her renewed concern for the safety of Master Zi Shan.

Times have changed.

Before, when the God Locking Sect wanted to take over Cloud State Mansion, her worry for Master Zi Shan’s safety arose because once the Cloud State Mansion fell into the hands of the God Locking Sect.

Master Zi Shan, who served as the Chief Master of the Treasure Pavilion in Cloud State Mansion, was likely to be liquidated by the people of the God Locking Sect.

Although the subsequent events did not unfold as such, and the God Locking Sect did not liquidate Master Zi Shan.

But now, the situation turned different.

Now, the Sun Faction wants to capture Cloud State Mansion, and she worries that the God Locking Sect will force Master Zi Shan to participate in this battle and help the God Locking Sect hold Cloud State Mansion.

If this happens, and Master Zi Shan cannot resist the pressure and chooses to assist the God Locking Sect.

Then if the Sun Faction subsequently captures Cloud State Mansion.

Master Zi Shan, who had once helped the God Locking Sect, might indeed be liquidated.

Alternatively, Master Zi Shan may choose death over dishonor, refusing to assist the God Locking Sect.

And would end up being liquidated by the people of the God Locking Sect who currently hold control of Cloud State Mansion…

Neither scenario is appealing to her.

And this is the reason behind her renewed worry about Master Zi Shan’s safety.

In response to this, after some thought, He Song also thought that Master Luo Jing’s worries were not baseless.

If he were the commander of the God Locking Sect in this war, he would also choose to sweep away the unknown factors in Cloud State Mansion while defending it.

And Master Zi Shan happens to be one of those unknown factors.

According to He Song’s reasoning, Master Zi Shan would either be expelled directly from Cloud State Mansion or forced to help the God Locking Sect hold Cloud State Mansion.

There is no third option.

Master Luo Jing’s concerns seemed reasonable at first glance.

However, upon further reflection, He Song felt that Master Luo Jing was overthinking out of concern.

Who is Master Zi Shan?

He is the Chief Master of the Treasure Pavilion in Cloud State.

A disciple of Ancestor Yuanying.

How could such a figure be driven to such desperation?

Even with a slight understanding of his identity, he is likely to be looked up to in Cloud State Mansion.

Neither the Sun Faction nor the God Locking Sect would dare to shake even a single hair on him.

After all, offending Master Zi Shan means offending a massively influential force for themselves and their faction.

The Treasure Pavilion is not some minor Golden Core Faction.

Among them, there is a known disciple of Ancestor Yuanying.

And how many unknown Ancestor Yuanying are there?

After all, considering the branches of the Treasure Pavilion that exist in every immortal city and in every state mansion, it’s impossible that the Treasure Pavilion only comprises the lineages of Master Luo Jing and Master Zi Shan.
