Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation - Chapter 669
Chapter 669: Chapter 536 Golden Core Middle Stage_2
“`
Just like the time when He Song had helped Meng Guan and Wei Fan, sending them Golden Elixir Spiritual Elixirs and Golden Core Talismans, and had run around for their sakes, the friendship they shared was the same.
Back then, didn’t Meng Guan and Wei Fan also feel that their friendship could not be measured in spirit stones?
But now.
When it came to He Song, he also felt that their friendship could no longer be measured in spirit stones.
The essence between the two situations was actually the same.
It was all about mutual assistance between three good friends, where the sentiment naturally could no longer be calculated.
With this thought in mind, He Song’s desire to refine elixirs and artifacts and even to craft spirit amulets, also fiercely ignited within him.
Although it was difficult to repay such kindness.
As long as he could produce enough spirit elixirs and spirit artifacts and draw enough spirit amulets.
With the value of these items, it would be possible for him to exchange for enough of Meng Guan and Wei Fan’s cultivators’ Golden Cores.
After all, He Song was only temporarily unable to repay such a huge favor.
In the future, he could slowly trade his own skills for a large number of spirit stones, then turn those spirit stones into resources to give to Meng Guan and Wei Fan.
In this way, he could make sure that his two good friends wouldn’t suffer too much of a loss and that was achievable.
“It seems that this matter of exchanging for cultivators’ Golden Cores will have to be planned out for the long term,”
“For the time being, when the exchange time comes, I’m afraid I won’t be able to offer so many resources in exchange for the cultivators’ Golden Cores.”
“Forget it, forget it. If the number of cultivators’ Golden Cores I obtain this time is too large, I will have to shamelessly accept them first and make up for it later on.”
“With the Sun Faction and God Locking Sect in repeated battles, Wei and Lao Meng will surely have a great demand for spirit elixirs and talismans.”
“This, in turn, gives me the opportunity to repay some favors.”
While circulating the Violet Palace Refining Spirit Formulas and absorbing the external spirit Qi for his own use, He Song couldn’t help but sigh.
Although Meng Guan and Wei Fan had already stated clearly that they would give all the Golden Cores they obtained to He Song without asking for anything in return,
The value of the cultivators’ Golden Cores was truly immense.
If he didn’t offer something in exchange, He Song’s conscience would be troubled.
Therefore, even knowing that his two good friends would not mind, He Song was still prepared to reciprocate in his own way.
In doing so, his mind could be more at ease.
After making this decision, He Song put the matter behind him and began to focus on circulating the Violet Palace Refining Spirit Formulas, continuously absorbing the external spirit Qi for his own use.
As the mana inside He Song’s body grew denser, and the mana within his Golden Core became increasingly abundant.
One day.
He Song was circulating the Violet Palace Refining Spirit Formulas, absorbing the external spirit Qi,
But suddenly realized the rate at which he was absorbing the external spirit Qi was dropping rapidly.
The speed at which he was absorbing the external spirit Qi became slower and slower.
Soon, it dropped to a certain level.
However, although the speed at which He Song was now absorbing the external spirit Qi to transform into his own mana was very slow, it was still much faster than when he was in the Early Stage of the Golden Elixir during his cultivation process.
He had successfully broken through from the Early Stage of the Golden Elixir to the Middle Stage of the Golden Core.
The changes in He Song’s body were far more than just an improvement in his strength.
There were also other changes.
For example, after He Song had broken through to the Middle Stage of the Golden Core, the rate at which he absorbed external spirit Qi was much faster than before in the Early Stage of the Golden Core.
In such a situation, He Song’s future cultivation speed would naturally also see some increase.
This was the positive growth brought about by a breakthrough in cultivation.
He Song was well aware of this.
In the past, he had experienced this when he broke through smaller realms during the Qi Refining stage, as well as the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Just after breaking through to the Middle Stage of the Golden Core, to enable a rapid accumulation of his own mana, a cultivator’s speed of absorbing spirit Qi would become extremely fast for a while.
But when some time passed and the cultivation was completely consolidated in the Middle Stage of the Golden Core, the cultivator’s speed of absorbing spirit Qi would also return to normal.
The period before when He Song continuously absorbed external spirit Qi, rapidly converting it into his own mana, was actually a process of consolidating his cultivation.
And now, after his cultivation was fully consolidated.
“`
Even if he expended a large amount of mana in duels, his realm would not fall back to the Golden Elixir Early Stage.
However, because of this, He Song’s cultivation speed also became normal.
When the cultivation speed became normal,
it also meant that He Song’s cultivation level had been thoroughly consolidated, and he was able to travel outside.
Realizing this, He Song did not hesitate and soon stopped cultivating, opening his eyes.
Inside the cave mansion.
Within the Quiet Room.
When He Song opened his eyes, a spiritual pressure immediately manifested inside the Quiet Room.
A dense spiritual pressure rose from He Song’s body at this moment, enveloping the surroundings.
However, as only He Song was present in the cave mansion at the moment,
and the cave mansion was enshrouded by the Divine Thunder Array outside, the spiritual pressure would not leak out.
Hence, this spiritual pressure did not cause any other issues.
It only made the dust inside the Quiet Room a bit more solid.
He Song was unconcerned with this.
He quietly controlled the spiritual pressure, and soon he began to familiarize himself with the surging mana within his Golden Elixir.
Compared to the Golden Elixir Early Stage, the amount of mana within He Song’s Golden Elixir had now increased substantially.
And as the mana increased, He Song’s strength naturally rose as well.
Now, with He Song’s cultivation reaching the Golden Core Middle Stage, and having consolidated his cultivation level during secluded cultivation,
when He Song executed Golden Elixir Skills, or wielded his Lower-grade Spiritual Tool in a battle, the power of both would naturally increase as well.
Even when casting defensive skills, the defensive capabilities of the skills had been significantly enhanced.
After a brief trial of his strength within the cave mansion and sensing that his strength had made substantial progress compared to before, He Song returned to the Quiet Room, content.
This breakthrough to the Golden Core Middle Stage,
was not what He Song was most looking forward to, actually, it was not the increase in his own strength.
After all, for a long time before the breakthrough to the Mid-stage Golden Core, his strength had also been increasing with each secluded cultivation session.
Although the growth was not as significant as this time, it was steadily achieved step by step through his own cultivation.
The increase in strength brought by the breakthrough to the Golden Core Middle Stage was indeed significant, but it was really just icing on the cake.
What He Song was most looking forward to was actually about the refining of Talismanic Treasures.
Back when He Song was still in the cave mansion by the Purple River Bank, he had already taken an interest in Talismanic Treasures refining.
After subsequently purchasing materials for Talismanic Treasures refining from Zichuan Prefecture Government, his interest in creating his very first Talismanic Treasure grew tremendously.
Now,
with He Song’s cultivation reaching the Golden Core Middle Stage, the power of the Talismanic Treasures he would refine would inevitably belong to the Mid-stage Golden Core.
In such a case, after successfully breaking through to the Golden Core Middle Stage, and having consolidated his own cultivation level, He Song immediately focused on Talismanic Treasures.
Talismanic Treasures could be created in great numbers.
With enough materials, He Song could even refine as many as ten or eight.
Though currently, He Song only had materials for refining one Talismanic Treasure in his hands.
But, refining one’s first Talismanic Treasure by oneself is actually the most exciting endeavor.
Inside the Quiet Room,
He Song concentrated and quickly took out many materials for Talismanic Treasures refining from his storage bag.
The Cultivator’s Golden Core required for the main body of the Talismanic Treasure.
After some thought, He Song ultimately chose the Cultivator’s Golden Core left behind after Fallen Snow True Monarch’s death.
Although the Golden Core left behind after Master Yin Yue’s demise had no great difference from other Golden Cores, He Song occasionally reviewed his memories and had found quite a bit of information from within them.
After considering Master Yin Yue’s Golden Core, He Song ultimately decided to set it aside for the time being.
He would wait until the day when he had no main materials left for Talismanic Treasures refining, or when he had other needs before using it.
