“Aside from that, there hasn’t been any major event happening in Cloud State.

However, Qian’er noticed that the prices within the Flying Cloud Immortal

Mansion seem to be rising.”

“I don’t know the reason, but even the lower-grade Thick Earth Amulets have increased in price from five spirit stones to six.”

“Su Qian.”

Looking at the delicate handwriting on the paper, He Song raised his eyebrows thoughtfully.

It’s good news that Su Qian has progressed to the Qi-refining mid-stage.

This means that she can make contact with higher level people, and her messages will be more accurate.

However, since she already said that there’s no need to change the reward, he won’t change it.

One message is worth one spirit stone.

It also saves him some spirit stones.

As for her gratitude for his guidance, He Song didn’t take it to heart.

He merely gave her some casual advice, which was actually irrelevant to Su

Qian.

The reason she said this was probably to please him.

In front of Su Qian, He Song appeared to be at the seventh-tier Qi Refining stage.

For a Qi-refining late stage cultivator like Su Qian, trying to befriend He Song is natural.

As for the heavy casualties among those who went to pursue their opportunities a few months ago, it didn’t surprise He Song.

He had already suspected the place where the opportunity was.

If a Foundation Establishment Elixir had really appeared, it must be the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators who would compete for it, and it has almost nothing to do with the Qi Refining stage practitioners.

Of course, if there were a Doomed Son, he might be able to snatch a piece of meat from the hands of those Foundation Establishment Masters.

Unfortunately.

There were no such geniuses among those who went.

But why are the prices in the Flying Cloud Immortal Mansion rising?

After pondering for a while, He Song felt that he seemed to have overlooked something.

However, after thinking about it, he was clueless.

Having no choice, He Song decided to reply to Su Qian and asked her to investigate in the Flying Cloud Immortal Mansion.

“Congratulations on your breakthrough to the Qi-refining mid-stage, and from now on, you can hope to establish your Foundation.”

“However, I would like you to investigate the soaring prices in the Flying Cloud Immortal Mansion. If you find any news, please report it to me as soon as possible. ”

“There may be other implications in this matter. If you have any guesses, feel free to inform me.”

“Chen Zhou.”

He Song and Su Qian’s communication has always been under the name Chen Zhou.

Up to now, Su Qian still doesn’t know He Song’s real name and has always called him Mrs. Chen.

As for her real name, she might never know it unless He Song tells her.

For He Song.

Safety comes first.

If he hadn’t crossed over to this time and hadn’t thought of this, he might not have used his real name from the very beginning and would probably have chosen a false name to travel around.

Now, this alias, Chen Zhou, is naturally his name used for wandering around other places.

With a spit of spirit power from his fingertips, the thin paper in He Song’s hand instantly turned into a sound- transmitting paper crane and sped towards the distance.

After doing all this,

He Song took out some food from his storage bag and started teasing Yu’er again.

It’s worth mentioning.

After feeding Yu’er a Beasts Elixir daily and allowing her cultivation to grow rapidly, He Song’s interactions with her have also become more frequent.

When he’s free, He Song would also personally tease or feed her some food.

Through constant familiarity, Yu’er can now understand some of He Song’s commands without the need for him to issue orders through the Beast Mastery Token.

However, since Yu’er is a spirit turtle, her movements are rather slow, and when He Song gives her orders, she is extremely slow, just like a crawling turtle.

A moment later.

While He Song was still teasing Yu’er,

A sound-transmitting paper crane flew over from the distant sky and landed beside He Song.

Seeing this, He Song released a trace of his aura and picked up the thin paper transformed by the sound-transmitting paper crane.

He glanced at it, and his face suddenly turned serious.

“Sir Chen, Qian’er specially went to investigate, and the soaring prices in the

Flying Cloud Immortal Mansion are said to be related to an alliance nearby.”

“On the periphery of the Sun Faction, four Golden Core Sects have united and are constantly stockpiling materials for war preparations.”

“The prices there are soaring, and the Flying Cloud Immortal Mansion, not far from those four Golden Core Sects, has naturally been affected.”

“The soaring prices in the Immortal Mansion mentioned by Qian’er earlier are also related to this alliance between the four sects.”

“However, while inquiring about these, Qian’er also found out about another piece of news.”

“In the north of the Sun Faction, several Golden Core Sects around the God

Locking Sect seem to have also formed an alliance for self-preservation.” “Their objective seems to be directed at those four Golden Core Sects.”

“Su Qian.”

Looking at the delicate handwriting on the paper and putting the paper in his storage bag, He Song’s gaze quickly turned to the direction of the Thick Earth Sect’s gate.

The God Locking Sect is a Nascent Soul Upper Sect with comparable strength to the Sun Faction.

On the periphery of the God Locking Sect, like the Sun Faction, there are several Golden Core Sects to serve as a buffer zone against other forces.

This is the origin of the Seven Star Sect and the several Demon Sects around it.

The Thick Earth Sect and the several Golden Core Sects around it can form an alliance.

So can the Seven Star Sect and the several Golden Core Sects around it.

Once these Golden Core Sects join forces and begin to confront each other, the region where He Song is located will instantly become perilous.

On one side is the God Locking Sect.

On one side was the Sun Faction.

Both of them were Nascent Soul Upper Sects.

Under their guidance, the struggle between several Golden Core Sects would likely unfold quickly.

It would start with probing, followed by war, and, in the end, no one knew what would become of the situation.

As the scenes flashed through his mind, He Song’s eyebrows furrowed, but he soon composed himself.

Don’t panic.

Don’t panic.

Hadn’t he been anticipating this day for a long time?

As a result, he even took the time to leave the Thick Earth Sect’s sphere of influence and establish several hidden cave mansions elsewhere.

Weren’t these backup plans established for his own safety?

With these backup plans in place, what would he be worried about?

With such thoughts in mind, He Song’s expression quickly became calm.

Presumably, he would soon learn about this matter from Master Qingy Yue, right?

Even a lowly Immortal Pavilion cultivator far away from the Sun Faction’s sphere of influence could get wind of this information.

With the Thick Earth Sect’s extensive intelligence network, it was impossible for them not to know about the sudden alliance of several Demonic Sects.

The high-ranking members of the Thick Earth Sect, as well as those of the other major Golden Core Sects, would already be fully aware of this news.

However, they had not yet disseminated this information for some reason.

With this in mind, He Song pondered for a moment and then took several sheets of thin paper from his storage pouch.

He had received this news by chance.

But he should inform his two good friends about this matter.

It would be best to let them plan ahead.

“Wei, I recently came across some information: the Seven Star Sect and the surrounding Demon Sects have formed an alliance, intending to counter the Four Sects Alliance.”

“From now on, this territory is likely to become unstable.” “I hope Brother Wei can prepare ahead of time to avoid being caught off guard.”

“Don’t make a fuss about this matter; simply be prepared.” “He Song.”

“Lao Meng, I recently came across some information…”

“He Song.”

Following this format, He Song sent messages to Wei Fan and Meng Guan.

After so many years of interaction, the two were He Song’s good friends, and he understood them quite well.

At this moment, they should be taking this message seriously upon receiving it.

When the news is officially announced by the upper echelons, they should be able to start preparing early, so as not to be in disarray.

As for the others…

Master Qingy Yue had deep connections and a wide network of people within the Thick Earth Sect, so He Song didn’t need to worry about him.

Ping’er was Master Qingy Yue’s disciple; if Master Qingy Yue was fine, she would be fine too.

As for Zhao Lin, He Song hadn’t seen him for decades, and people’s hearts were unpredictable; after considering it, He Song didn’t inform him either.

The acquaintances He Song had within the Thick Earth Sect were limited to these people.

For various reasons, He Song only informed Wei Fan and Meng Guan of the news.

The two of them were similar to He Song, with no substantial foundation, background, or connections within the Thick Earth Sect.

As such, informing them ahead of time would allow them to prepare for subsequent events.

Furthermore,

Both of them had once been kind to He Song.

From their time together at Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion until now, they had supported one another; since He Song had learned about this information ahead of time, it was only right that he shared it with them.

After all, it was just a casual mention.

However, it was worth mentioning that Wei Fan had successfully advanced to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment a few years ago.

At present, among the three friends, only He Song’s cultivation level remained in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, while Wei Fan and Meng Guan were both at the mid-stage.

He Song’s actual cultivation was also at the mid-stage Foundation Establishment, but he had been concealing it, claiming to be only in the early stage.

After informing Meng Guan and Wei Fan of this news,

He Song pondered for a moment, then quickly left his mansion.

A few hours later,

Jade Immortal City.

A black-robed He Song once again arrived here.

After revealing his cultivation at the ninth-tier Qi Refining stage, He Song quickly entered the Treasure Pavilion of Jade Immortal City.

Treasure Pavilion.

He Song spent tens of thousands of spirit stones to purchase various materials needed for his cultivation.

The sight of this caught the Steward of the Treasure Pavilion, who had come to attend to He Song, completely off guard.

A mere ninth-tier Qi Refining cultivator was frantically buying resources for Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation.

Are you sure you’re not here to cause trouble?

Fortunately, He Song was quite generous when paying with spirit stones, which dispelled the doubts in the steward’s heart.

After spending tens of thousands of spirit stones on stocking up resources for his own cultivation, He Song quickly left the Treasure Pavilion.

Just like whenever he bought supplies and left previously, He Song changed his appearance again before safely returning to the Herbs Immortal Workshop.

However, just as He Song finished purchasing various resources for his own cultivation and returned to the Herbs Immortal Workshop,
