Chapter 198 - 425

  Chapter 425: Five Years Later

  A mysterious technique capable of reaching the YuanYing realm straight away.

  For anyone, it was a great opportunity.

  Even He Song, who was now a Jindan True Lord.

  After suddenly obtaining such a technique, he still wouldn't treat it lightly.

  Compared to the Thick Earth Technique, the Purple Mansion Forging Elemental Technique had a faster cultivation speed, and was even able to make He Song's dantian slightly larger, allowing it to hold more spiritual energy or mana.

  Although He Song had already stepped into the Jindan realm nowadays, the characteristic of expanding the dantian of the Purple Mansion Forging Yuan Technique was still useful to him.

  With this characteristic, He Song's mana would be a bit more than other cultivators.

  Although there wouldn't be a huge difference, even if it was only 10% more, the increase in He Song's own strength would be immediate.

  Moreover, the Purple Mansion Forging Elemental Technique was faster to cultivate, allowing He Song to break through his cultivation at a faster rate in the future.

  This, was what He Song valued the most.

  In that case, it was natural to hurry up and switch to the Purple Mansion Forging Elemental Technique, so that he could increase his cultivation speed before saying anything else.

  With this thought in mind, He Song quickly began to switch cultivation techniques.

  He wanted to change the Thick Earth Skill that he was practicing to the Violet Mansion Forging Yuan Skill that had already been tested and had no problems whatsoever.

  The matter of switching cultivation techniques.

  For any cultivator, it was not simple.

  For He Song, it was the same.

  Moreover, when converting a technique, it could not be disturbed by the outside world, nor could it be abandoned halfway.

  Therefore, before He Song closed his door to cultivate the technique, he laid down the Jindan Defense Formation that he had just obtained outside the hidden cave where he was staying.

  Subsequently, he felt that it wasn't enough insurance, so he decided to set up one more Heavenly Dipper Divine Thunder Formation.

  With the Heavenly Dipper Divine Thunder Formation, as well as the Golden Dan Defense Formation, these two formations sheltered him.

  He Song also separated Yu'er in the cave from the quiet room he was in.

  After making sure that Yu'er would not intrude into his quiet room while he was practicing his own cultivation techniques.

  Only then did He Song throw his Transmission Note out of the quiet room, and closed the door to the quiet room.

  After doing all this, there would be no more surprises in the matter of He Song's cultivation method transfer.

  Within the quiet room.

  When everything was ready.

  He Song's mind quickly flashed through the various trajectories of the Purple Mansion Forging Elemental Technique, as well as its key points.

  After confirming that there were no more mistakes or omissions, He Song then began to meditate and concentrate.

  Waiting until his own state of mind was calm, He Song then began to try to turn.

  Only then did He Song begin to try to turn to cultivate the gong method.

--

  Time was long.

  The years passed.

  In the blink of an eye.

  Five years passed in the blink of an eye.

  One day.

  He Song sat in a quiet room, the spiritual qi surging around his body, the rich and incomparable spiritual qi was continuously incorporated into He Song's body.

  With the influx of spiritual qi, the mana in He Song's body also grew bit by bit with the passage of time.

  Now, five years had passed.

  The matter of transferring the cultivation technique had long been completed.

  He Song's cultivation speed had also received a huge boost.

  What's more, what He Song had practiced previously was the Foundation Establishment Realm's Thick Earth Technique.

  Now, he had switched to cultivating the Violet Mansion Forging Yuan Technique of the Jindan realm.

  Naturally, the cultivation speed of He Song, who was now practicing the Purple Mansion Forging Elemental Technique, was much faster than when he was practicing the Thick Earth Technique before.

  There was already a huge difference between the cultivation speed of a Jindan realm cultivator and a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator.

  This was coupled with the fact that the cultivation speed had been replaced with a faster cultivation technique.

  He Song's cultivation speed had naturally increased tremendously compared to before.

  And because of this.

  He Song had continued to cultivate during these five years, but he had also allowed himself to take a steady step in the early stage of Jindan.

  His own mana, compared to when he had just broken through the early stage of Jindan, was also a lot stronger.

  And after five years, the characteristics of the Purple Mansion Forging Yuan Technique that expanded the dantian also began to gradually appear.

  The size of He Song's dantian had already had a slight increase compared to before.

  Although it wasn't much, it was a real increase.

  In this regard, while He Song was pleased in his heart, he also had a hint of anticipation for the growth of his own mana.

  One would think that in the future, the total amount of one's mana would be able to increase with the passage of time, right?

  At the same time.

  During these five years, He Song did not study anything else except at the very beginning, when he was at the stage of switching over to cultivating his gongfu.

  After successfully converting his own technique from the Thick Earth Technique to the Purple Mansion Forging Element Technique, He Song had also completely cultivated the Earth Spirit Body Protecting Technique that he had obtained from the Golden Snake Sect to the point of proficiency in the remaining time.

  Five years of time, to completely skill up a Jindan technique.

  It wasn't out of He Song's expectation.

  He was already faster than other cultivators in practicing spells and such.

  Five years was about the same amount of time he had spent practicing the Mountain Destroying Technique.

  With the completely skillful Earth Spirit Body Protecting Technique, with just a movement in He Song's mind, he was able to instantly extract the heavy spiritual qi from the surrounding land and use it to shelter He Song himself.

  At the same time, as time continued to pass, the thick spiritual qi around He Song would also become denser and denser, bringing with it an increasingly powerful defense.

  Such an increase would continue until the limit of this technique.

  And this limit, at least with He Song's current strength, would be very difficult to break it.

  He Song had once maneuvered the Purple Lightning Spirit Snake Seal to launch an attack against himself, who had cast the Earth Spirit Body Protection Technique.

  However, it turned out that the Spirit Snake crawling out of the Purple Lightning Spirit Snake Seal really didn't pose much of a threat to He Song, who was protected by the Earth Spirit Body Protecting Technique.

  Although the offensive power of the Purple Lightning Spirit Snake was no match for a normal Jindan True Lord.

  However, it was not weak either.

  Even such an attack was unable to pose a threat to the Earth Spirit Body Protecting Technique, so one could imagine the Earth Spirit Body Protecting Technique's powerful defense.

  It could be imagined that even if a true Jindan True Lord were to strike at He Song, if he did not strike with all his might, I am afraid that it would be very difficult to pose much of a threat to He Song.

  However, if it really came to the time of fighting with other Jindan True Lords, He Song would naturally maneuver the Star Meteor Bead to encase himself, and wouldn't only perform the Earth Spirit Body Protecting Technique to protect himself?

  Under the protection of the Earth Spirit Body Protecting Technique and the Star Meteorite Bead, He Song's defense ability could be said to be very amazing.

  And after completely cultivating the Earth Spirit Body Protection Technique to the point of proficiency.

  The limit of the Earth Spirit Body Protection Technique was linked to He Song's own mana.

  The more mana in He Song's body, the higher the limit of the Earth Spirit Body Protection Technique.

  One could say that.

  The Earth Spirit Body Protection Technique could grow with He Song's strength.

  And because of this, He Song could be considered very satisfied with the Earth Spirit Body Protecting Technique.

  With the Earth Spirit Body Protecting Technique in his body, He Song could be considered to truly possess a Jindan realm defense spell.

  With this spell, He Song would not be considered weak amongst the early Jindan cultivators.   

  While cultivating the Earth Spirit Body Protecting Spell to proficiency.

  During these five years, He Song had also gained a deep understanding of the Jindan Defense Formation that he had obtained from the Golden Snake Sect five years ago.

  Although the five years were too short, He Song had not yet been able to completely understand this Golden Dan Defense Formation.

  But according to He Song's own estimation.

  If he could understand this Jindan Defense Formation for another five years, he would definitely be able to understand this Jindan Defense Formation completely.

  At that time, He Song would be able to lay down the Big Dipper Divine Thunder Formation anywhere, as well as the Jindan Defense Formation that he was comprehending now.

  His own security would also see a huge increase.

  Moreover, ten years to comprehend a Jindan Grand Formation.

  This time was already very short.

  One must know that when He Song had first comprehended the Heavenly Dipper Divine Thunder Formation, it had taken him thirteen years to completely comprehend the Heavenly Dipper Divine Thunder Formation to the point where it could be set up at any time.

  Nowadays, compared to the thirteen years in the beginning, there were three years less.

  The main reason for saving three years was that He Song already had his own understanding of the Jindan Formation, and when he comprehended the Jindan Defense Formation, the speed of comprehension would also become faster.

  Secondly, He Song's cultivation level increased, bringing about an increase in the speed of enlightenment.

  He Song's cultivation level had broken through from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Jindan Realm.

  A Jindan realm cultivator naturally had to be more agile than a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator.

  Although this magnitude wasn't really high.

  However, a slight increase in the speed of enlightenment was normal.

  Although he had spent five years but had not completely comprehended the Jindan Defense Formation, He Song knew that it was already time for him to leave the gate.

  Yi Yang Sect.

  Cloud State.

  Eight Veins Immortal City.

  Near the Flying Cloud Immortal Place.

  Within He Song's hidden cave.

  Within the quiet room.

  He Song stopped practicing and swept his gaze over the surroundings.

  Five years had passed, and everything within the quiet room was as before, almost the same as when He Song entered it five years ago.

  Except for the extra Transmission Note in front of He Song, there wasn't much change elsewhere.

  In this regard, He Song did not have any waves in his heart.

  In these five years, although he had also left the quiet room and tested the defensive strength of the Earth Spirit Body Protection Technique.

  However, most of the time was still spent in the quiet room, and He Song was already very familiar with the quiet room in front of him.

  The Transmission Note in front of him was also one that he had retrieved from outside the quiet room after he had converted to the Purple Mansion Forging Elemental Technique.

  Previously, during the process of transmuting the technique, He Song couldn't be disturbed, which was why he had left it outside the quiet room, and even Yu'er, who was completely isolated from him.

  Until the transformation technique was completed, and after entering the subsequent cultivation and enlightenment time, He Song naturally also brought the Transmission Note, as well as Yu'er back again.

  In the time outside of the period of time when he had removed the cultivation technique.

  He Song had also read all the news from the outside world without fail.

  During these five years.

  Neither Meng Guan nor Wei Fan had sent a single transmission to He Song.

  In this regard, He Song has some guesses in his heart, but things have not yet come to a dusty time, He Song's guesses in his heart are always just guesses.

  Whether Meng Guan and Wei Fan will be able to condense Dan successfully or not, He Song has no way of knowing now.

  He Song has no way of knowing now.

  However, now that five years have passed, I'm afraid that news will soon come about whether Meng Guan and Wei Fan have succeeded in congealing the dan or not.

  When He Song broke through the Jindan realm, the time he spent was around five years.

  According to He Song's estimation, Meng Guan and Wei Fan would definitely contact him in the near future.

  By then.

  Whether or not the two of them had successfully condensed their dan would be finalized.

  And it was precisely for this reason that He Song chose to leave the gate at this moment.

  One of the purposes of this time, naturally, was also to be the first to know the movements of his two old friends.

  In addition to that.

  Since He Song was not too far away from the battlefield between the Alliance of Righteousness and the Alliance of Devil's Paths, He Song did pay attention to the movements there from time to time.

  Unfortunately, Qing Yue Zhenren and Bottle had left the Thick Earth Sect in the early years to look for opportunities elsewhere, and had not yet returned.

  As a result, He Song was unable to obtain information about the movements on the battlefield from Qing Yue Zenith or Bottle.

  Moreover, Su Qian, who was in the Flying Cloud Immortal Workshop, was too far away from the battlefield, and could not get too much information about the battlefield, except for some major events.

  Therefore, although He Song has a rough understanding of the news from the outside world, he has no idea about the current situation between the righteous alliance and the demonic alliance.

  But for the progress of the war between the Righteous Alliance and the Devil's Alliance, it is not a very good understanding.

  He had only learned from Su Qian that the war between the Righteous Alliance and the Devil's Way Alliance seemed to have reached a real fire.

  Over the past five years, there have been Jindan True Monarchs fighting with each other from time to time, and the battle has been very intense.

  In this regard, after He Song really understood, his heart for his own opened in the thick earth sect, as well as its surrounding several Jindan sects within the sphere of influence of the medicinal garden, and then there is a sense of crisis.

  In the sphere of influence of the Thick Earth Sect, the Golden Sword Sect, the Qiong Hua Sect, and the Pure Yin Sect, they all had medicinal gardens.

  These medicinal gardens were able to provide themselves with around two million spirit stones every ten years.

  Although such a large amount of spirit stones was no longer considered a huge sum of money for He Song, whose cultivation had already broken through to the Jindan realm.

  But at least, with these spirit stones, He Song didn't need to worry about spirit stones on weekdays.

  Under such circumstances, He Song was still quite attached to these medicinal gardens of his own.

  And precisely because he knew that the war between the Righteous Alliance and the Devil's Alliance was gradually intensifying, He Song's heart also began to ponder.

  Should he move out the pill gardens in the sphere of influence of the Thick Earth Sect, Golden Sword Sect, and the Qiong Hua Sect and Pure Yin Sect?

  Or, to just give up all the medicinal gardens in the spheres of influence of these sects.

  After all.

  The Thick Earth Sect or the Golden Sword Sect, as well as the Qiong Hua Sect and the Pure Yin Sect, were all on the fringe of the Great War between the Righteous Alliance and the Devil's Path Alliance.

  At this distance, it wasn't really safe.

  If a Jindan True Lord passed by He Song's medicinal garden in a fight, I'm afraid that the medicinal garden would be destroyed in an instant, and the medicinal herbs would be devastated.

  Moreover, if He Song went to harvest the medicinal herbs in these medicinal gardens in the future, he might also meet some other Jindan True Lords.

  Don't be captured and forced to get involved in this war between the righteous and the devils.

  He Song didn't want his life to be held by others.

  He Song did not want his life to be taken by others.

  He Song was pondering in his mind whether he should take the risk to go on a journey.

  Or, he could just give up all the medicinal gardens in the Thick Earth Sect, Golden Sword Sect, Qiong Hua Sect, and Pure Yin Sect, and pretend that he had never built these medicinal gardens.

  In addition, he would build some new medicinal gardens in the hidden places of the Yi Yang Sect to make up for his losses.

  In this way, there was no need to worry about being forced to get involved in the war between the righteous and the devils after he left this time.
