Chapter 612: Chapter 508: Ten Years Later_1
When his divine sense had swept through the entire cave mansion and found no abnormalities, He Song’s originally cautious expression finally relaxed slightly.
He also checked the several Array Skills he had deployed, as well as the appearance of the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree inside the cave mansion.
After confirming that no one had entered the cave mansion during the twenty days of his absence, He Song felt somewhat at ease.
He Song did not let down his guard completely; instead, he extended his divine sense, continuously scanning the hundred miles he could reach.
After ensuring there were no abnormalities in these places either,
He Song’s heart finally settled completely.
Following this inspection by He Song, everything within a hundred miles of his cave mansion, as well as inside it, showed no signs of disturbance.
This meant that He Song’s cave mansion had not attracted the attention of any cultivators in the past twenty days,
nor had any cultivators come to probe his cave mansion.
Realizing this, He Song retracted his divine sense with satisfaction and quickly dismantled the several Array Skills outside the mansion.
Soon, only a fully intact Spirit-Gathering Array and a Divine Thunder Array remained outside He Song’s cave mansion.
As for the other Array Skills, he had already dismantled them and placed them in his storage bag.
With these two Array Skills, the spirit-gathering effect, defense, and concealment abilities of He Song’s cave mansion were fully sufficient.
If he kept the dismantled Array Skills running, they would only increase the burden on He Song’s spirit stones.
Having acquired the means to create Talismanic Treasures, He Song naturally wanted to make one, or even several, to protect himself.
In this situation, He Song found himself in need of spirit stones again.
Although most of the materials for making Talismanic Treasures could not be bought with spirit stones,
the spirit medicine He Song needed to refine Golden Elixir Spiritual Elixirs had to be purchased with spirit stones.
The spiritual materials required for refining Lower-grade Spiritual Tools also needed to be bought with spirit stones.
The amulet paper and amulet ink for drawing Golden Core Talismans also had to be bought with spirit stones.
For He Song, spirit stones were still of considerable importance.
All sorts of materials required a large expenditure of spirit stones to purchase, which He Song would then process with his own skills into Golden Core items.
With these Golden Core items, He Song could then exchange them for the things he needed with other Golden Elixir Masters or the Treasure Pavilion.
Thus, the importance of spirit stones to He Song went without saying.
The lack of spirit stones was certainly not a trivial matter.
Besides spending spirit stones to buy these materials, He Song also needed to reserve a large number of spirit stones to power his Golden Elixir Array.
If in the future He Song were to engage in combat with others, and the Golden Elixir Array were deployed, spirit stones would immediately become the guarantee of He Song’s combat strength.
As long as he had enough spirit stones, He Song’s power level would naturally increase significantly.
This matter concerned He Song’s personal wealth and life; he could not afford to be careless.
Therefore, he naturally saved some unnecessary expenditure on spirit stones.
Dismantling a few Arrays was quite normal.
After restoring his cave mansion to the state it had been in before he left, He Song, before entering seclusive cultivation, did not forget to send a message to thank Master Luo Jing.
If not for Master Luo Jing this time, it would not have been so easy for He Song to obtain the Fu Hua Record.
Perhaps, by the time He Song received the news, the Fu Hua Record would have already been bought by someone else and fallen into their hands.
By then, who knew how many years he would have to wait to encounter another Golden Elixir Talisman Jade Slip one.
Although time meant nothing to He Song,
If he could get a Golden Elixir Talisman Jade Slip earlier, He Song could also start studying Golden Core Talismans sooner.
Once He Song mastered Golden Core Talismans, it would naturally boost his combat capabilities.
Not to mention, the Fu Hua Record also contained the method to refine a Talismanic Treasure.
Having a Talismanic Treasure compared to not having one had a huge impact on a cultivator’s power level.
In such a case, crafting a Talismanic Treasure earlier and using it as a foundation for himself might allow him to avert a life-threatening disaster.
For He Song, a powerful means of protection had always been his goal.
As an everlasting being, time had no meaning for He Song,
But power was different.
If one lacked strong power, even as an everlasting being, one might still be tyrannized to death by the powerful.
He Song did not want to experience nor was willing to endure such a scenario.
Therefore, he was cautious in all things to ensure he would not suffer such a fate.
And if he did not want to go through such events, his own strength was naturally the first thing He Song needed to pay attention to.
As long as it did not threaten his life, He Song was still willing to invest some effort to enhance his strength.
Just like He Song had always been engaging in seclusive cultivation in hidden locations.
He had devoted a great deal of time and effort,
Being extremely cautious, fearing to be swept into any crisis.
In the end, he had obtained the Golden Elixir Early Stage cultivation and power unimaginable to mortals.
Although the Golden Elixir Realm cultivation was not top-tier in the entire Cultivation World, it was still much stronger than most.
Possessing such strength was the foundation of He Song’s existence in this world.
