Even if he really has to resort to using force.
It must be done as cleanly and decisively as this time, leaving no future troubles behind.
Only in this way can he ensure his own safety.
With a more determined belief in surviving through any means, He Song came to a living room.
Soon, the scent of tea began to quickly fill the living room.
At the same time.
In He Song’s mind, he quickly recalled the scenes he saw when he used the Soul Searching Skill on Master Cang Jian.
Before being killed by He Song, Master Cang Jian had said that he wanted to inform He Song of an opportunity, on the condition that He Song would spare him.
Unfortunately, Master Cang Jian didn’t know that He Song had missed many chances during the Qi Refining stage because he was unwilling to let go of his enemies.
Now that his cultivation had reached the Foundation Establishment stage, he immediately learned the Soul Searching Skill.
To avoid missing opportunities again.
As a result, when Master Cang Jian said this, He Song was bound to use the Soul Searching Skill on him.
Once the Soul Searching Skill was used.
The memories about the opportunity in his mind naturally belonged to He Song.
The opportunity mentioned by him would naturally belong to He Song.
At this moment, He Song recalled the details about the opportunity mentioned by Master Cang Jian.
Master Cang Jian did not lie.
In a stroke of luck, he had indeed discovered an opportunity in a certain place.
This opportunity had a stronq defensive capability.
It was a cave mansion left by a Master after death during the Foundation Establishment stage.
And it seemed that this Master hadn’t died long ago, as there was still a powerful array protecting the outside of the cave mansion.
Master Cang Jian didn’t have array skills, so he could only sigh in despair. However.
He had not found anyone to help break the array yet, but He Song’s arrival gave him a glimmer of hope.
About half a month ago.
He Song just stepped into the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion and sold spirit rice there.
At the same time, the steward of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, who received He Song, informed the supervisor Liu Ping of He Song’s arrival.
And he shared his guess about He Song’s identity.
When the supervisor, Liu Ping, informed Master Cang Jian that there seemed to be someone with a talent for Array Tao in the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion.
A thought suddenly flashed through Master Cang Jian’s mind.
Maybe he could catch this person and have him help break the array.
As for what was to be done after breaking the array.
Wouldn’t it be up to him, a Master of the Foundation Establishment stage?
He could decide whether to kill or keep the person with just a word.
Even if this person was temporarily unable to break the array, he could still bring him into the Golden Sword Sect and receive generous rewards.
Once he achieved the Foundation Establishment stage, or made a breakthrough in his Array Tao knowledge, he could invite him to break the array together.
By that time, he might be able to establish a relationship with this person.
The friendship of an Array Path Master… weighs quite heavily after all.
At this thought, Master Cang Jian’s heart suddenly warmed up.
After ordering He Song to be captured but with no results, Master Cang Jian, who was unwilling to give up hope, ordered the Immortal Mansion to be sealed, allowing entry but no exit.
At that time, he even thought about using his divine sense to search everyone in the Immortal Mansion.
Because only in this way could he discern the cultivators’ hiding places.
That’s why he ordered that if anyone wanted to leave early, they had to be checked by him first before they could leave.
However.
Just as Master Cang Jian was preparing to seal the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion and look for the person with Array Tao talent.
He Song’s appearance immediately dispelled his original idea.
He hadn’t expected that the random chicken he chose turned out to be the very person he was looking for.
And when He Song burst out with incredible speed, heading towards the outside of the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion, Master Cang Jian was even more satisfied.
Keep running.
The farther and more desolate the better.
When he reached a desolate and uninhabited place, it would be even more convenient for him to either coerce or tempt He Song.
This was also the reason why he pursued He Song all the way but never sped
up.
This was also the reason why he had been trying to belittle the Thick Earth Sect and elevate the Golden Sword Sect, and tried to persuade He Song gently.
If he could capture He Song without any effort, that would be even better. If he offered great rewards afterwards. He Song might try harder to break the
array.
In this way, when He Song led him to a valley dozens of miles away from the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion, it was only natural.
Just a moment before stepping into the array in the valley, Master Cang Jian was still thinking about how to capture He Song to help him break that array.
But to his surprise, in the next moment.
After stepping into the array set up by He Song, he was filled with regret.
Looking at Master Cang Jian’s memories, it was as if He Song could feel the intense regret in Cang Jian’s heart when he stepped into the array.
Unfortunately.
There are no what-ifs in this world.
Master Cang Jian’s regret did not bring him any reward.
On the contrary, after killing Master Cang Jian and learning about the Foundation Establishment stage cave mansion from his memory, He Song’s eyes were filled with expectation.
Foundation Establishment stage cave mansion.
It was left by a Master after death during the Foundation Establishment stage.
Moreover, there was a powerful array guarding the outside of the cave mansion.
In this way, the deceased Master of the Foundation Establishment stage might have some knowledge in Array Tao.
At the very least, he should have purchased a complete set of array skills from other Array Masters, owning a complete set of Array Disk and Array Banner.
Only in this way could he set up an array outside the cave mansion and block the steps of a Master in Foundation Establishment.
However, when he later checked the location of the cave mansion, He Song frowned.
This cave mansion was located within the influence of the Golden Sword Sect.
It was thousands of miles away from the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion, in an extremely remote place.
Master Cang Jian had found the cave mansion by chance, but sadly, he had no opportunity to claim it.
He could only give up and return in disappointment.
Because of this, He Song felt slightly resistant to the idea of going there.
He had just killed a Master of the Golden Sword Sect.
However, to get this chance, he would have to return to the Golden Sword Sect.
Within the Golden Sword Sect’s sphere of influence, He Song had no sense of security at all.
Thus,
After learning that the cave mansion was within the Golden Sword Sect’s sphere of influence, He Song immediately put it last on his list of options.
If possible, he preferred not to go.
If necessary, he would give up this opportunity.
He Song had just killed a Foundation Establishment Master of the Golden Sword Sect and managed to escape their sphere of influence.
If he returned to the Golden Sword Sect’s sphere of influence because of the allure of opportunity, who would know if the Golden Sword Sect’s people would be able to trace him?
In order not to put his life in danger, He Song felt it was best to stay away from the Golden Sword Sect.
Otherwise, he would probably face the Golden Sword Sect’s pursuit.
As for now, as long as He Song stayed within the Thick Earth Sect’s sphere of influence, he had the backing of two Golden Elixir Masters from the Thick Earth Sect.
Even the Golden Sword Sect could not do anything to He Song without any
solid evidence.
This was why He Song immediately rushed back to the Herbs Immortal Workshop after killing someone.
But if he was out in the open…
He couldn’t be so sure.
There were many instances of Foundation Establishment Masters dying during their adventures.
With the temptation of seizing the opportunity in the cave mansion dismissed from his mind, He Song continued to search through Master Cang Jian’s memories.
After making sure there were no other abnormalities, he finally let his mind rest and focused on enjoying his tea. Having been away for some time, it was time for him to relax.
Then, he would focus on seclusive cultivation.
Besides, he had gained a lot during this trip away from the Herbs Immortal Workshop and needed to digest his gains properly.
With that in mind, He Song immersed himself in relaxation for the next few days.
Until several days later,
He Song entered the meditation chamber, and began his seclusive cultivation.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three years had passed.
During these three years, He Song had been cultivating in seclusion, and the mana within his body was rapidly increasing.
Compared to three years ago, He Song’s body now contained much more mana, making his skill more powerful, and his strength much greater.
Although three years was not a long time,
He Song’s strength had increased significantly.
Especially after experiencing a life-and-death battle with a Foundation Establishment cultivator, his control over the Spirit Puppet Skill and other skills had improved rapidly.
Now, He Song was confident that he could defeat his past self quickly.
While He Song’s strength grew rapidly, all sorts of news from the outside world kept coming in.
During the three years of He Song’s seclusion, the alliance between the four Golden Core Sects remained unchanged.
However, there were already voices within the alliance calling for war against the Demonic Sects.
According to the Golden Sword Sect, one of their Immortal Mansions had been attacked by a Demon Cultivator, and the Foundation Establishment Master guarding the Mansion had been killed, with the entire Mansion almost emptied out.
Moreover, the Demon Cultivator left behind a name.
Seven Star Sect.
Master Ningyin.
This person was now at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, good at refining puppets, usually manipulating puppets to fight with his enemies, with cruel methods and numerous puppets.
After thorough investigation and confirmation, the Golden Sword Sect issued a kill order against Master Ningyin of the Seven Star Sect.
Furthermore, they began lobbying the other three sects, trying to get them to point then weapons at the Demonic Sects.
As for the reason, He Song had also heard a little about it.
It was said that the deceased Master Cang Jian of the Golden Sword Sect had a Master within the sect—a cultivator of Foundation Establishment Completion. He held a high position and wielded great power within the sect.
Under his strong advocacy and influence, the Golden Sword Sect changed their attitude and prepared to target the Seven Star Sect.
As He Song received Master Qingyue’s letter and saw her earnestly explain the news to him, he finally let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately, his efforts to frame and falsely accuse were not in vain.
Now, the pressure was on Master Ningyin and the Seven Star Sect.
He couldn’t help but wonder what kind of expression Master Ningyin and the Seven Star Sect would have when they found out that a huge pot of blame had suddenly landed on their heads..
