Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 559: Chapter 481: Danger and Opportunity_2

“However, mastering a Golden Elixir Skill is truly a daunting task.”

“Wei and I have tried to study various Hundred Skills of Cultivation Truth, but most of them have minimal results that we had no choice but to give up.”

“Nowadays, Wei and I only specialize in one, but we are still a bit distant from the Golden Elixir, and so we’d spare ourselves the embarrassment of mentioning it.”

In the end, Meng Guan shook his head, seemingly no longer wanting to continue discussing the topic of Hundred Skills of Cultivation Truth.

Seeing this, He Song naturally didn’t ask any further.

However, with Meng Guan’s words, He Song finally understood quite a bit about the source of the spirit stones for the Golden Elixir Master.

Still, what Meng Guan said was mostly the situation he learned within the Sun Faction. For He Song, except for some reference value, the other uses were not too significant.

After all, a place like the Demons Realm would be impossible for He Song to visit.

Besides, issues like becoming a patron of a Golden Elixir power or sheltering a Golden Elixir power, they would not seek out a Golden Elixir loose cultivator like He Song.

Those Foundation Establishment Clans, even if they could seek protection from He Song, they probably wouldn’t be able to afford much, it’s only better than nothing.

He Song has not joined the Sun Faction, so he does not have access to their external affairs.

As for earning a large number of spirit stones or even exchanging suitable treasures using personal skills.

This, He Song is already doing.

With He Song’s current elixir refinement ability, he’s already self-sufficient in spirit stones and can even use spirit elixirs to exchange for other treasures.

In this situation, what Meng Guan said about channels for Golden Elixir cultivators to earn spirit stones, He Song could not use any of them.

This made He Song, who thought he could take notes, feel greatly disappointed.

“Alas, it seems that after becoming a Golden Elixir Master, one needs to worry about various treasures and even spirit stones.”

“Compared with Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment before, there have only been changes in my strength and lifespan.”

“However, the only thing that remains the same is the law of the Cultivation World.”

“Danger and opportunity coexist.”

“To achieve a huge return, one needs to venture into dangerous places.”

“Unfortunately, I’m accustomed to being safe, so it seems that I have no destiny with the Demons Realm.”

Not asking any more questions, He Song swiftly changed the topic, beginning to reflect on his cultivation path after reaching the Golden Elixir Realm.

He Song’s ruminations also stirred up something in Meng Guan and Wei Fan who were by his side.

However, the two had different things in mind.

Meng Guan sighed inwardly, not surprised at all by He Song’s words.

He was very familiar with He Song’s caution.

Based on these words, he could confirm that the He Song before his eyes had not been occupied by others, which made him a bit relieved.

However, although he understood He Song’s decision, deep inside, he always felt that one day, he might have to venture into the Demons Realm.

Meng Guan was extremely confident in his own strength.

Despite being highly cautious about the dangers in the Demons Realm, he did not have any intention of retreating.

Having cultivated all the way from the Qi Refining stage to the Golden Elixir Realm, Meng Guan’s mentality greatly differed from He Song’s.

Although he was cautious at times, he never backed down in the face of danger.

Next to him.

We Fan, hearing He Song’s words, was also unsurprised by his statement.

Though he didn’t have Meng Guan’s tenacity and strength from fighting from the bottom, he was still a capable cultivator.

As long as he felt that the danger was controllable, he believed he could venture into the Demons Realm.

However, if he detected danger, he would naturally distance himself as soon as possible to ensure his safety.

Other than that, although Wei Fan did not believe he would have to go to the Demons Realm in the future, he became a little more vigilant about it.

The dangers of the Demons Realm, even though he only had a limited understanding of them at this point.

However, with He Song’s words, if he wanted to enter the Demons Realm in the future, he could be a bit more vigilant.

Of course.

Although the two were not surprised by what He Song said, they still had to carry on the conversation.

Therefore, when He Song began to speak emotionally, the two immediately echoed him and quickly changed the subject.

And when the topic turned to what they had all experienced over the decades.

He Song also learned many details that he had not known before.

For example, when Meng Guan talked about his experiences after leaving the Thick Earth Sect, the many doubts He Song had initially had were answered.

According to Meng Guan’s description, the Li Family of Eight-vein Immortal City did indeed face a life and death crisis.

With someone purposely fanning the flames, the Li Family of Eight-vein Immortal City would have been annihilated without external help.

It was under these circumstances that Meng Guan was inadvertently drawn into the whirlpool, and despite the machinations of the hidden figures, managed to save the Li Family.

Unfortunately though.

The old ancestor of the Li Family short-sightedly plotted against Meng Guan, who had saved his life.

Little did he know that Meng Guan had learned the convenience and efficiency of the Soul Searching Skill from He Song before he left Thick Earth Sect.

By a fortuitous coincidence, Meng Guan used the Soul Searching Skill to detect the old ancestor of the Li Family’s plot against him.

And then… the old ancestor of the Li Family lost out.

In a fit of rage, Meng Guan chose to wipe out the Li Family, seizing all their treasures and leaving the Eight-vein Immortal City.

However, even up to now, Meng Guan has never once mentioned what exactly the old ancestor of the Li Family had plotted against him.

Although He Song didn’t understand, he decided not to ask after some thought.

In the Cultivation World, strange and peculiar skills emerge in an endless stream, so who knows what the old ancestor of the Li Family wanted to do to Meng Guan?

However, according to He Song’s understanding, what the old ancestor of the Li Family wanted to do to Meng Guan probably touched Meng Guan’s sensitive spot.

Otherwise, with Meng Guan’s temperament at the time when he just left the Thick Earth Sect, it would be impossible for him to raise a butcher knife to a Foundation Establishment Clan.

As Meng Guan continued his story,

He Song soon learned about the adventures Meng Guan had experienced over the decades – his countless travels and the various incidents he encountered in different places.

According to Meng Guan’s description, almost every place he went, things would happen unexpectedly.

And, these things would always specifically target him.

If his cultivation level wasn’t high and his strength wasn’t so great, he would probably face life and death situations everywhere he went.

As such, when Meng Guan told these stories, He Song felt like he was listening to a series of fantastical tales.

Because many of the events Meng Guan experienced were truly incredible.

At least in He Song’s view.

Situations that ordinary cultivators wouldn’t likely encounter in their entire lifetimes.

But for Meng Guan, almost every new location he arrived at would bring about a series of strange occurrences.

As Meng Guan carried on with his descriptions, things finally quieted down a bit when Wei Fan managed to catch up from a great distance and, after that, the two started to travel together.

However, even though there were fewer incidents, things would still abruptly happen and they were always directed specifically towards Meng Guan.

Wei Fan, who was beside him, seemed to have been completely overlooked.

If it weren’t for Meng Guan bringing him along, he would probably have been treated like an invisible person and excluded.

As these events kept happening.

And as Wei Fan began to share his feelings when Meng Guan talked about these experiences.

He Song had a complete understanding of everything the two had experienced together.

In short,

From the moment Meng Guan left the Thick Earth Sect, a series of major and minor events had happened unceasingly; even when the two were travelling together, these events never ceased.

Only when the two had a stroke of good luck and found a Golden Elixir Cave Mansion within the territory of the Golden Snake Sect, did these incidents finally stop.

Moreover, in the Golden Elixir Cave Mansion, the two found two Golden Congealing Elixir Pills that He Song had left for them.
