As he killed more and more Evil Cultivators, his cultivation level drastically escalated. He soon broke into the ninth-tier of Qi Refining from the eighth-tier.
Then, immediately following his breakthrough into the ninth-tier, he quickly consolidated his spirit power and successfully reached the stage of Qi Refining great perfection.
Up until now.
Meng Guan is preparing to attempt a breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment realm.
The timing is chosen for the month before he turns sixty.
After listening to Meng Guan’s narration, He Song and Wei Fan exchanged glances, each seeing a trace of astonishment in the other’s eyes.
This was not how Lao Meng described the situation when he communicated with them earlier!
If He Song’s memory served him right,
Meng Guan never mentioned anything like Master Duan Hun in his communication with them.
He also didn’t mention slaying Evil Cultivators or what he had experienced over the years.
In his communication with the He Song and Wei Fan through the sound-transmitting paper crane, Meng Guan never mentioned these things.
He would occasionally mention that his cultivation level had progressed.
Not having lived in the Green Wall Immortal City, He Song and Wei Fan naturally didn’t know what Meng Guan had given up for these things.
Up until this moment.
It dawned on them just how serious Meng Guan was when he said he was staking his life on his mission.
Looking at Meng Guan, He Song was surprised.
Master Duan Hun.
Qi Refining cultivators with formidable strength are often bestowed the title of Taoist.
After Foundation Establishment, they are referred to as Masters. Although he never heard of this title in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion,
it seemed that Meng Guan, with his own nickname, must have powerful strength acknowledged by many cultivators.
However, despite being shocked by everything Meng Guan had described, He Song still looked somewhat skeptical.
He hadn’t investigated Meng Guan’s situation in the Green Wall Immortal City, having heard of it from the man himself.
Fourteen years.
From seventh-tier Qi Refining to Qi Refining great perfection.
Meng Guan’s exaggerated cultivation speed and the luck that saw him through numerous near-death experiences compelled He Song to suspect that Meng Guan might be hiding something.
However, after some thought, he decided against probing too deeply into what Meng Guan was hiding.
The Cultivation World.
Everyone has their own secrets.
Since Meng Guan was keeping it hidden, he obviously didn’t want others to know.
He might even attract unnecessary trouble if he were to pry too much.
Just like He Song himself, hadn’t he also kept secrets, unbeknownst to others?
Thus, after listening to Meng Guan’s narration, He Song picked up the teacup and said to Meng Guan.
“Leaving other matters on the side, allow me to use tea instead of wine today to congratulate Lao Meng on reaching the great perfection Qi Refining and the approaching of his Foundation Establishment.” Saying this, He Song finished his tea in one gulp.
On the side,
Wei Fan also hurriedly picked up his teacup on seeing He Song do so.
“Yes, I also wish to congratulate Lao Meng on reaching the great perfection Qi
Refining and his imminent Foundation Establishment. ”
As the two of them finished their tea, Meng Guan also picked up his teacup at this moment, shaking his head with a slight smile.
“It was mere luck, just pure luck. Both of you have also made great progress in cultivation. Let’s celebrate together,” he said.
When the three teacups were put down, the atmosphere in the small courtyard became even warmer.
Three old friends who hadn’t seen each other in a long time had gathered today, naturally, there were unending topics to discuss.
Even more so, there were countless sentiments to share.
Although the three hadn’t seen each other for more than a decade, there was no sense of unfamiliarity due to their frequent communication, instead, they cherished this hard-earned reunion even more.
Meng Guan’s invitation to He Song and Wei Fan had an underlying meaning of the last meeting, adding to the warmth of the occasion.
The process of Foundation Establishment was intricate.
While Meng Guan had made a name for himself as Master Duan Hun in the Green Wall Immortal City, he had also offended many people.
With the assistance of two good friends at the Qi-refining late stage, he felt much more at ease.
Although hardly anyone would dare to take actions in the Green Wall Immortal City watched over by several Foundation Establishment masters, it’s better to be safe than sorry.
If he were attacked during the process of Foundation Establishment, he would probably lose his life and spirit immediately.
Hence, even though he had reached the great perfection of Qi Refining and was on the verge of advancing to the Foundation Establishment Realm, Meng Guan didn’t treat He Song and Wei Fan any less seriously.
On the contrary, because of their small circle, he was even closer to He Song and Wei Fan.
After a hearty chat, the three of them settled in Meng Guan’s small courtyard.
At this moment, it’s a little over twenty days until Meng Guan’s sixtieth birthday.
During these twenty-odd days, Meng Guan had to try his best to keep himself at peak condition to ensure a smooth transition to the Foundation Establishment.
At the same time, he had to find a good day to attempt his breakthrough to Foundation Establishment within these more than twenty days.
With the arrivals of He Song and Wei Fan, Meng Guan can finally concentrate on keeping himself at peak condition.
As the days passed one by one.
The time for Meng Guan’s planned break to Foundation Establishment was getting closer.
As the days passed by, He Song and Wei Fan took turns going out and around Green Wall Immortal City.
They got to know the various distributions and enjoyable locations of Green Wall Immortal City.
Green Wall Immortal City is divided into four regions.
East City, West City, South City, and North City.
These four areas attract four different types of people.
The East City is home to the majority of cultivators who excel in one or other skill. The cultivators living there are generally quite wealthy.
The West City is home to a large number of cultivators or mortals who have complex relationships with the Thick Earth Sect. Meng Guan, being a member of the Immortal City Law Enforcement Team, lives here.
The South City is home to the majority of Loose cultivators who don’t possess any additional skills. This place is synonymous with poverty and is the most disorderly and chaotic among the four areas, with a mix of people.
The North City, where the spirit Qi is thin, is largely inhabited by mortals.
These mortals have complex relations with the cultivators in the Immortal City, most of them being descendants of the cultivators.
Due to the different groups living in these four areas of Green Wall Immortal City, people have categorized them using eight words.
East Rich, West Noble, South Poor, and North Humble.
This phrase is easy to understand.
The East City is rich, the West City is noble, the South City is poor, and the North City is populated by mortals, who usually have humble jobs that cultivators are unwillinz to enzaze in, therebv earning it the title of humble.
The small courtyard in the West City where Meng Guan lived was surrounded by numerous other courtyard houses inhabited by people who had intricate relations with the Thick Earth Sect.
There were Law Enforcement Team members.
There were members of Immortal City’s shops.
There were disciples dispatched by the Thick Earth Sect to keep watch.
There were even two Masters at the Foundation Establishment stage from the Thick Earth Sect living here.
After touring the four areas of the city, He Song took a liking to the North City. It was where the mortals lived.
However, it was also the most entertaining part of the Green Wall Immortal City.
Going to brothels, listening to music.
Leaning on the railings and burning incense.
Discussing Dao, paying visits to friends.
All joys of life could be found here..
