Chapter 420: Chapter 412: The Death of the Enemy

Translator: 549690339

Now… After five years, He Song’s cultivation has successfully advanced from the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection to the Golden Core Realm.

After reading all the messages in the Sound Transmission Amulet and learning about the various events that happened in the outside world during his five years of seclusive cultivation, He Song carefully considered and finally responded to each message in his amulet.

He replied to the messages from Meng Guan, Ping’er, Master Qingyue, as well as others.

Even for Su Qian’s monthly letters, after reading them, He Song quickly responded.

As a result.

In the eyes of others, He Song, who had disappeared for years,

Finally re-established contact with the outside world after five years today.

For a time, Meng Guan, Ping’er, Master Qingyue, and even Su Qian all replied, asking what He Song had been doing for the past few years.

Regarding this, He Song said that he had encountered some opportunities in his journey,

But he was also trapped in a certain place for several years, only managing to escape a few days ago.

That’s why he disappeared for so many years.

However, he only touched upon the matter of opportunity and didn’t elaborate, nor did he explain why he was trapped and how he managed to escape.

Nevertheless, after hearing He Song’s words, the others didn’t ask any more questions, instead reminding He Song to be cautious and ensure his safety in the future.

He Song assured them he would, and said he would be even more careful in the future.

With that, the matter of He Song’s disappearance for several years came to an end.

He Song’s communication with the outside world began to resume from today.

However,

While He Song digested the various occurrences over the past five years and pondered what to do after consolidating his cultivation, a message from the battlefield between the Righteous Alliance and the Demonic Alliance caught his attention and shook him.

This message was sent by Master Fa Xuan and seemed to be a message showcasing the achievements of the Righteous Alliance.

The message contained information about many demonic cultivators being killed, as well as significant progress made by the Righteous Alliance.

If He Song’s guess was correct, this message wasn’t intentionally sent to him by Master Fa Xuan,

Instead, it seemed like a message compiled specifically to show off their merits to the Sun Faction.

In this message,

He Song saw a long-lost name.

“Master Ningyin, at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, died at the hands of Master Chi Jian!”

He Song’s eyes swept over the numerous names on the message, pausing briefly at Ningyin’s name,

After seeing his cultivation level and the record of him being killed by Master Chi Jian, He Song’s expression gradually changed.

Master Ningyin was the only Foundation Establishment enemy He Song had encountered before.

Back when He Song was at the Foundation Establishment Early Stage and was assigned to guard the Herbs Immortal Workshop, he killed one of Ningyin’s disciples and from that disciple’s soul, he found a Spirit Puppet Skill.

This Spirit Puppet Skill had helped He Song immensely during his time in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Even when entering Master Yin Yue’s cave mansion later, the Spirit Puppet Skill had been of great help to He Song.

Because of these incidents, with his own disciple killed by He Song and the skill falling into He Song’s hands,

If Master Ningyin knew about it, he would definitely not let He Song off easily.

Therefore, even though He Song never met Master Ningyin face to face, he had already regarded him as an enemy.

He knew,

Once Master Ningyin knew of this matter, he would definitely target He Song.

So, when he found out that Master Ningyin was dead and that he had been killed by the Sect Leader of the Golden Sword Sect, Master Chi Jian,

Although He Song had successfully broken through to the Golden Core Realm and no longer needed to worry about a Foundation Establishment Master seeking revenge,

Still, the fact that his enemy had been mysteriously killed by someone else made He Song feel slightly relieved.

In the Cultivation World, although strength is respected,

Fears lie not in thieves who steal, but in thieves who covet.

No one wants an enemy constantly watching and waiting for a chance to make a move against them,

Even if that enemy’s cultivation level no longer poses a significant threat to He Song.

Thus, the death of Master Ningyin was indeed good news for He Song.

“Master Ningyin…”

“It’s good that he’s dead, so I don’t have to go out of my way to eliminate him in the future.”

After reading through all the names and events on the paper, He Song put it away in his storage bag,

Then sighed slightly and continued absorbing the spirit Qi around him with his eyes closed.

As a large amount of spirit Qi was absorbed into He Song’s body, his Golden Core inside began to rotate slightly.

The absorbed spirit Qi was instantly refined into spirit power, which then turned into mana, before being absorbed by the Golden Core, making He Song’s power even stronger.

However, at the same time, He Song became somewhat dissatisfied with his current cultivation speed.

He had already broken through to the Golden Core Realm,

But because he hadn’t joined any forces and didn’t obtain any Golden Core Cultivation Skills during his time in the Thick Earth Sect, he was at a disadvantage.

So now, when he truly steps into the Golden Core Realm and wants to continue cultivating and become stronger,

He can only continue using the Thick Earth Formulas that he had used since the Qi Refining stage to the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection stage.

He Song had used the Qi Refining stage’s Thick Earth Formulas when he was in the Qi Refining stage,

He used the Foundation Establishment stage’s Thick Earth Formulas when he was in the Foundation Establishment Realm,

Now He Song had successfully entered the Golden Core Realm,

Yet he was still practicing the Foundation Establishment stage’s Thick Earth Formulas.

With no other Golden Elixir Cultivation Skills as alternatives, He Song now had to continue using the Foundation Establishment stage’s Thick Earth Formulas for his own cultivation.

How could the cultivation speed of Foundation Establishment stage techniques possibly catch up with that of the Golden Core Realm techniques?

This was the source of He Song’s dissatisfaction with his cultivation speed.

“It seems that finding a Golden Elixir Cultivation Skill as soon as possible is the most important thing to do right now.”

“However, there’s no rush. Master Yin Yue once found a Golden Elixir Cave Mansion and got hold of several earth attribute offensive skill means for the Golden Core Realm.”

“Although there are no Golden Elixir Cultivation Skills to practice and only one Earth Attribute Offensive Skill Means can be used, now that I have achieved the Golden Core, I can practice this earth attribute offensive skill for the Golden Core Realm.”

“Once this Golden Core Realm offensive skill is practiced proficiently, I will have more means in the Golden Core Realm.”

“At that time, whether I go to other places to find Golden Core Cave Mansions, or do other things, I will have a greater grasp.”

“In addition, Master Yin Yue had refined many low-grade spirit artifacts. Now that my cultivation has reached the Golden Core, I can choose from among them.”
