Chapter 162: Chapter 163: A Major Event Occurs
After all, his two friends, who were once like him, mere Qi Condensation cultivators. .
Have now, one after another, become Foundation Establishment True Persons. .
Although He Song hasn't felt it deeply due to the two not deliberately distancing themselves, this difference in status and strength truly exists. .
Foundation Establishment True Persons and Qi Condensation cultivators. .
The gap in their status is like the difference between heaven and earth. .
One can see this by looking at True Person Bear Mountain. .
A single Foundation Establishment True Person can manage an entire Immortal Market. .
In that entire Immortal Market, aren't there hundreds, if not thousands, of Qi Condensation cultivators?. .
But aren't they still suppressed by True Person Bear Mountain alone?. .
This kind of gap in status and strength makes it inevitable for He Song to feel some discomfort when facing these two friends. .
Therefore, a touch of melancholy appeared in his words. .
His heart felt an even greater sense of urgency towards Foundation Establishment. .
"This matter needs to be considered carefully; it's too early to talk about it now. ."
Waving his hand, He Song didn't tell the two that he was already completely confident. .
He had too many secrets. .
Once he opened his mouth, he might expose his secrets. .
For example, where did those six Foundation Establishment Pills come from?. .
Where did the Dantian Settling Technique come from?. .
Where did so many spirit stones come from?. .
These things were all secrets that He Song had hidden for a long time and could never be revealed. .
Not even to these two, who were his friends. .
As a person with a long lifespan. .
He Song knew deeply that only by keeping secrets could one live longer. .
Rather than revealing his own secrets to reassure others and ultimately attracting covetousness. .
It was better to hide his secrets in the deepest part of his heart. .
Only in this way could he continue to live here as an ordinary cultivator. .
If his secrets were discovered. .
Death. .
For him, it might even be a luxury. .
In order to avoid threats to his person, He Song must tightly guard his secrets. .
He must never tell others. .
Seeing that He Song didn't want to talk about it, Meng Guan and Wei Fan thought that He Song had some concerns about his future Foundation Establishment. .
After exchanging a glance, the two of them didn't mention the Foundation Establishment matter again. .
Instead, they steered the conversation further and further away. .
Completely bypassing the previous two topics. .
Next, the three of them chatted about some other trivial matters, and it could be considered a pleasant conversation. .
It wasn't until several hours later that He Song finally took his leave. .
Leaving the mountain peak where the two's cave dwellings were located. .
He Song walked all the way towards his own small courtyard. .
Now, his cultivation had reached the ninth level of Qi Condensation. .
It was more important to raise his cultivation to the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation as soon as possible, and then step into the Foundation Establishment realm. .
As for other things. .
They were merely side issues. .
Once he successfully established his foundation, it would truly be like a fish leaping into the vast sea, and a bird soaring in the high sky. .
Looking at the distant, layered mountain peaks, He Song looked back at the location of Meng Guan and Wei Fan's cave dwellings. .
After letting out a sigh. .
He Song's figure also quickly disappeared into the distance. .
Earth Sect. .
Outer disciple residence. .
In He Song's small courtyard. .
He Song brewed a pot of good tea for himself. .
As wisps of tea fragrance permeated the small courtyard, He Song took a deep breath, and his whole body relaxed. .
He took a light sip of tea. .
Feeling that the cultivation in his body had increased slightly, a satisfied look appeared on He Song's face. .
Drinking tea could increase cultivation; this was something that He Song had longed for a long time ago. .
Now. .
The Bi Xian Spiritual Tea, which was once out of reach, was no longer considered a good tea for He Song at this time. .
The tea He Song was drinking now was several times better than Bi Xian Spiritual Tea. .
A single sip increased cultivation even more. .
Of course, the price was also more expensive. .
But, in order for his cultivation to increase as quickly as possible, He Song wouldn't be stingy with these spirit stones. .
Spiritual tea, pills, spirit rice, demonic beast meat, and so on. .
Anything that could be bought with spirit stones and could speed up the progress of cultivation, He Song accepted all of them and prepared some for himself. .
In this way, He Song's cultivation speed was also extremely fast. .
Savoring the fragrance of the tea. .
In He Song's mind, Meng Guan's previous words to him flashed through. .
"The attack on Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market, it is said that people from other sects were behind the planning. ."
"This matter has spread far and wide, and it has greatly damaged the reputation of our sect. ."
"The other party is hiding too deeply, and we have been unable to find anything for a long time. ."
"The Sect Master True Lord is preparing to increase the intensity of the investigation. ."
"Presumably, there will be news soon. ."
"There is something else hidden in this matter. ."
"."
Meng Guan's hesitant expression when he spoke, and the words he carefully chose after much deliberation. .
All of them flashed through He Song's mind like a passing scene. .
For a time, He Song frowned, and his mind immediately began to ponder what secrets were hidden in this matter. .
The attack on Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market was said to be planned by people from other sects. .
At the same time, good news doesn't travel, but bad news spreads far and wide.
The news that the Immortal Market under the jurisdiction of the Earth Sect had been attacked by rogue cultivators had spread all around, causing great damage to the Earth Sect's reputation. .
The surrounding sects might be watching the show. .
Your Earth Sect has two Golden Cores, doesn't it? How come you can't even protect the Immortal Markets under your jurisdiction?. .
But because the other party was hiding too deeply, even though several Foundation Establishment True Persons were sent to investigate, they had not been able to find anything for so long. .
Now, True Lord Fa Xuan was preparing to increase the intensity of the investigation. .
However, Meng Guan also said that there would be news soon. .
And he also said that there was something else hidden in this matter. .
What secret?. .
Why did Meng Guan know that there would be news soon?. .
With a trace of doubt in his eyes, He Song thought about it left and right, but finally gave up. .
"Forget it, forget it, didn't he say that there would be news soon? When the time comes, I'll listen to the news, and I'll probably know what the secret is. ."
Shaking his head and letting out a sigh, He Song finished his tea and soon entered the meditation room to start cultivating. .
Of course. .
He Song didn't enter closed-door cultivation, but he spent most of his time each day cultivating. .
The remaining part of the time was used to do other things. .
For example, learning spells. .
Now, He Song's cultivation had reached the ninth level of Qi Condensation. .
He didn't need to cultivate in seclusion day and night, neglecting sleep and food, like he did in the previous two years. .
In his spare time, He Song also began to study the Seven Fragrance Tracking Technique and the Dantian Settling Technique. .
Even while studying these two spells, He Song didn't forget to continue studying the Mist Veil Formation. .
While cultivating and studying spells, He Song didn't miss any information from the outside world. .
He still wanted to see what kind of news Meng Guan had said would be coming soon. .
Just like that. .
Time passed day by day. .
He Song's cultivation began to gradually increase. .
His understanding of the Seven Fragrance Tracking Technique, the Dantian Settling Technique, and even the Mist Veil Formation also gradually increased with time. .
Thus, in the blink of an eye, several months passed. .
This day. .
He Song finished his cultivation and walked out of the meditation room, only to find that there was a Message Paper Crane floating quietly outside the meditation room. .
Seeing this, He Song casually released a trace of his aura. .
The paper crane in front of him immediately turned into a thin sheet of paper and landed in He Song's hand. .
"Fellow Daoist He, today I happened to see several Foundation Establishment True Persons riding spirit vessels heading west. Looking at their destination, it seems to be the location of the Earth Sect's mountain gate. ."
"Presumably, there has been progress in the attack on Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market, and these Foundation Establishment True Persons are returning to report. ."
"Regarding the attack on Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market, I hope that Fellow Daoist will inform me when you learn of the news. ."
"Although I have gained a firm foothold in Green Wall Immortal City, Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market is the starting point of my immortal path. ."
"I also want to know what happened in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market. ."
"I thank Fellow Daoist in advance. ."
"Zhao Lin. ."
He Song's gaze swept across the lines of words on the paper, and he raised an eyebrow. .
Several Foundation Establishment True Persons heading west?. .
The location of the Earth Sect's mountain gate was just west of Green Wall Immortal City. .
According to what Zhao Lin said in his letter, those several Foundation Establishment True Persons should be able to quickly return to the Earth Sect from the location of Green Wall Immortal City. .
After these Foundation Establishment True Persons returned and informed the Sect Master True Lord of the information they had obtained from the investigation. .
There would probably be news released. .
At that time, perhaps what happened in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market would be clear at a glance. .
However. .
At this moment, He Song's heart inexplicably flashed back to the hesitant look on Meng Guan's face when he asked him about it. .
At that time, Meng Guan had said that there was something else hidden in this matter. .
But he didn't reveal what kind of secret it was. .
Moreover, Meng Guan also said at that time that there should be news about this matter soon. .
Now, the return of those several Foundation Establishment True Persons seemed to indicate that this statement was not false. .
But how could Meng Guan have determined several months ago that there would be news about this matter soon?. .
Could it be. . .
He Song's eyes were deep, and he looked at the location of the Earth Sect's main peak, then shook his head and stopped thinking about it. .
Since Zhao Lin had already sent him a message, wanting to know the specific information about this matter. .
Then he could just wait in the sect. .
When those several Foundation Establishment True Persons returned, he would naturally be able to know what exactly happened in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market. .
Putting away the paper. .
He Song pondered for a moment, and without any other thoughts, he simply returned to the meditation room and began to meditate and cultivate. .
This cultivation. .
Another few days passed in the blink of an eye. .
Several days later. .
He Song was cultivating in the meditation room, but the message talisman he had placed to the side suddenly lit up. .
He Song, who was awakened by this light, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the message talisman he had placed to the side. .
"A message talisman? Could it be that something major has happened?. ."
He Song's message talisman had only been in contact with four people so far. .
Meng Guan, Wei Fan, Pinger, and Pinger's senior sister, Chu Shuangshuang. .
The only ones who could use a message talisman to send a message to He Song at this time were these four people. .
Moreover, these four people were all from the Earth Sect. .
If something major hadn't happened, presumably no one would use a message talisman to contact him. .
