He Song did not pay much attention to these messages.
After reading them, he replied to the two of them to show that he had read them and then stopped paying attention.
Another five years went by.
It had been a full ten years since He Song arrived in Heaven Power Immortal
City.
Ten years.
Not too long.
But not too short either.
Although this place was the Cultivation World.
Ordinary people would be lucky to live for sixty years.
In ten years, if He Song was just an ordinary person, he might have spent a significant part of his life.
Fortunately, he was an everlasting being who could cultivate immortality in this place.
He Song’s cultivation had now reached the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, with surging mana and oppressive spiritual pressure in his body.
So, after seclusive cultivation for another five years and his body’s mana growing even more.
He Song’s own strength also grew accordingly.
The more mana, the more prosperous spiritual pressure.
The power when casting spells and the attack intensity when manipulating artifacts would increase day by day.
Under such circumstances, He Song’s strength had risen to a higher level compared to five years ago.
Although his cultivation was still the same as five years ago, still at Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, the mana in his body had grown much more than before.
Coming to Heaven Power Immortal City and enjoying its various resources.
The speed of He Song’s cultivation progress was naturally faster than before.
According to He Song’s estimation, he should have already come a long way on the path from Mid-stage Foundation Establishment to Late-stage Foundation Establishment.
Today, it has been about fifteen years since he broke through the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.
With his extraordinary cultivation speed, it was probably not too far from the Late-stage Foundation Establishment.
However, even if he successfully broke through to the Late-stage Foundation Establishment in the future, He Song would still hide his cultivation and continue to maintain the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation on the surface.
Not for any other reason.
Just because he had just broken through the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment not long ago.
If he were to break through again in such a short time, he might attract some unnecessary troubles.
He Song was not afraid of trouble, but he was worried that someone would target him because of it.
If his secret was discovered as a result, the consequences would be obvious.
Nowadays, although He Song’s cultivation had reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, he was still basically powerless against those in the Golden Elixir Realm.
Without the power to resist, his secret must not be exposed.
To keep the secret hidden, it was necessary to avoid drawing attention and not be noticed.
This was the main reason for his decision to hide his cultivation.
Although it was still too early to think about these things, He Song always liked to be prepared for everything in advance.
With the determination made in his heart that even if he broke through to the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, he would continue to hide his cultivation, He Song walked out of the quiet room in which he was secluded.
Five years had passed.
Time flew by.
Today was not the day when He Song was willing to leave seclusion.
It was just that he had no choice but to do so.
Scanning the surroundings, He Song’s eyes flashed with a sense of being in another world.
In a blink of an eye.
Another full five years had passed.
The last five years seemed to be vivid in memory.
Now, in the blink of an eye, another five years had passed.
At this time, it had been a full ten years since he arrived in Heaven Power Immortal City.
If he were not an everlasting being, He Song would probably worry about his lifespan constantly under such circumstances of frequent seclusive cultivation for several years.
“No wonder other cultivators are so pressed for time, trying to break through their cultivation before their life limit comes.”
“It turns out that just after one seclusion, looking at the scenes in front of you as if they were separated by another world, you can instantly realize how inadequate your lifespan is.”
“In that case, they will naturally pursue more lifespan to continue living.”
“Fighting for any opportunity and even risking their lives are just forced by their limited lifespan, and they can’t help but act like that.”
“Lifespan ah…”
Gazing at the sky, the expression on He Song’s face became calm at this moment.
It was very normal for occasional fluctuations in mentality after just ending a seclusive cultivation.
He Song quickly recovered his mood and moved to a living room.
In the living room.
Yu’er held on to Qing Feng’s trouser leg with her teeth, as if to make him feed her another Beasts Elixir.
But Qing Feng was a spirit puppet who had already been fixed in behavior after receiving He Song’s command.
He could only give Yu’er one Beasts Elixir a day.
At this moment, he was as motionless as a piece of wood facing Yu’er’s behavior.
He Song, who had just arrived in the living room, saw this scene and his eyes flashed with a different color.
So many years had passed.
Although Yu’er’s cultivation had not yet broken through from the Qi-refining mid stage to the Qi-refining late stage, her breath was much stronger than before.
Presumably, the spirit power in her body had grown significantly due to the Beasts Elixir.
Moreover, it was unknown why, but Yu’er’s spiritual wisdom seemed to have changed somewhat from before.
Nowadays, after being fed with the Beasts Elixir for more than ten years, Yu’er’s spiritual wisdom seemed to have been slightly enhanced.
Although he still couldn’t communicate with He Song like an ordinary person, he could now do many things he couldn’t do before.
For example, biting onto Qing Feng’s trouser leg and not letting go, hoping to get another Beasts Elixir from him, was a recent behavior.
The first time he saw this scene, He Song even thought that Yu’er had gained intelligence.
Unexpectedly, after some tests, it turned out that she had only become a bit smarter than before, and she didn’t possess high intelligence.
The current behavior seemed more like instinct.
However, making such a move had already proven that things were moving in a good direction.
Maybe, after Yu’er’s cultivation increased, she would bring a surprise to He Song.
He casually took out a Beasts Elixir from his storage bag.
Watching as Yu’er abandoned Qing Feng upon smelling the elixir and rushed towards him, the Beasts Elixir in He Song’s hand disappeared.
Upon seeing this, Yu’er hesitated for a moment and then turned her head towards Qing Feng again.
Seeing this situation, He Song didn’t tease her anymore and prepared a pot of tea for himself.
As the aroma of the tea filled the air, He Song’s thoughts began to wander.
Regarding leaving seclusion…
It wasn’t that He Song wanted to leave at this moment; rather, he had no choice but to leave.
Ten years ago…
Before being transferred to the Heaven Power Immortal City, He Song had left a spirit field and a medicine garden in the place where the Herbs Immortal Workshop was situated.
At that time, He Song had thought that after ten years, he would need to return there and harvest the mature spirit medicines from the garden and the spirit rice from the spirit field.
These were not just some of He Song’s gains.
They were also the raw materials he would use for researching Elixir Refinement Skill.
Right now…
As ten years have passed, He Song’s Elixir Refinement Skill has improved greatly.
Five years ago, He Song had already mastered the refinement of the Qi Condensing Elixir.
Master one, master a million.
In the following five years, He Song also learned to refine several kinds of high-quality elixirs.
Now, ten years have passed since He Song was first transferred to the Heaven Power Immortal City.
His elixir refining skill compared to before is like night and day.
Under such circumstances, He Song felt that it was time for him to challenge the refining of Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.
If he could successfully refine a batch of Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs in one go, he would definitely make a fortune.
By that time…
The spirit medicines he had planted and the spirit rice he harvested a decade ago would bring him immense benefits.
The price of Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs is incomparable to that of the elixirs used in the Qi Refining stage.
Moreover, Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs could not only be exchanged for spirit stones but sometimes also for other precious and rare items that can’t be bought with spirit stones.
Compared to spirit stones…
Elixirs were actually more like hard currency.
Spirit stones can be absorbed and converted into one’s cultivation.
But elixirs could do the same.
And elixirs could have even more effects.
Recovering mana, healing injuries, detoxifying, breaking through bottlenecks, and so on…
Moreover, while anyone can use spirit stones, the spirit Qi obtained from them is limited.
The speed of cultivating with spirit stones for a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator is far behind that of cultivating with elixirs.
Under such circumstances, elixirs obviously have more advantages than spirit stones.
However, elixirs are hard to come by, and unless one is an elixir refiner, they won’t have too many elixirs on hand, which is why they can’t become popular. In the entire Cultivation World, most things can still be exchanged with spirit stones.
Only some items that require bartering may be obtained through elixirs.
Now…
He Song’s elixir refining skill was about to challenge the refining of Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.
This was the time when he needed a large amount of spirit medicine to practice.
At this time, the spirit medicines he planted ten years ago and those he harvested at that time naturally became the best choices.
Using the spirit medicines he obtained without spending extra spirit stones would save He Song many spirit stones.
Under such circumstances, with the spirit medicines he planted ten years ago about to mature, He Song naturally had to leave seclusion immediately and go there to harvest them.
After he harvests these spirit medicines…
He Song would formally challenge refining the Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs, doing his best to refine them successfully.
This would require a lot of time and a lot of spirit medicine for practice.
After finishing the tea in the teapot, He Song glanced at Yu’er.
Yu’er was still stubbornly biting Qing Feng’s trouser leg, seemingly hoping to get another Beasts Elixir.
Qing Feng remained indifferent, standing still in his original position, not moving at all.
Seeing this, He Song shook his head, and after enclosing the living room within the Smoke Array and several other arrays, he turned and left his residence.
As the Master Guardian of Heaven Power Immortal City, He Song still needed to inform the other guardians when he wanted to leave the city to go elsewhere.
Fortunately, He Song was very familiar with the other three, and two of his good friends were on duty.
As a result, there weren’t any obstacles regarding leaving the Immortal City.
However…
Meng Guan had recently announced his seclusive cultivation and refused to meet all visitors.
Even He Song was stopped.
With no choice, He Song could only inform Wei Fan and Xuan He, then turned into an aqua blue escape light, speeding away into the distance..
