Chapter 621: Chapter 512 Cultivator’s Golden Core_2

“`

To obtain a cultivator’s golden core for an average cultivator is as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

It is precisely because of this difficulty that the high price of a cultivator’s golden core is established, making it extremely costly in the world of cultivation.

So costly that even late-stage Golden Core cultivators would hesitate repeatedly before deciding to purchase one.

He Song had previously known that crafting talismanic treasures required one.

But previously, He Song had never considered using Master Yin Yue’s golden core to craft talismanic treasures.

Therefore, when he first learned of the method to craft talismanic treasures, he hesitated over whether to craft them.

But now,

when he truly wanted to start crafting talismanic treasures,

thinking of the cost required to exchange with others for a cultivator’s golden core, treasure tree heart, and demonic beast core,

He Song hesitated time and again but ultimately could only focus his sights on Master Yin Yue’s golden core.

These items were just too expensive.

Even the He Song of today would probably need to drain all his resources if he wanted to exchange for these items.

Since such expensive items were readily available to him, it made sense to use them first.

As for the other required materials to craft talismanic treasures, even though they were still valuable, they were within He Song’s means.

Crafting talismanic treasures requires the main body of the treasure and precious talisman ink.

The ink used for talismanic treasures is greatly different from the common ink used for spirit amulets.

The common ink for drawing spirit amulets is mostly concocted from demonic beast blood, supplemented with spirit medicine and spirit ore powder.

This kind of ink, used on common spirit amulets, naturally doesn’t pose much problem.

But if it were used on talismanic treasures, it would reduce their power and be counterproductive.

The ink for the White Rainbow Mountain Opening Talisman,

even just the materials alone, is much more precious than common ink.

It requires the heart essence of a demonic beast, supplemented with a large amount of precious spiritual medicine-generated spirit liquid, and the powder of several types of precious spirit minerals.

Each of these materials holds immense value.

And they are quite difficult to find.

However, according to He Song’s guess, the Treasure Pavilion might have these items.

Even if they don’t, given the interconnected nature of the different main pavilions within the Treasure Pavilion, he would only need to wait for a while.

The Treasure Pavilion would deliver what he needed to his hands.

Thinking this, He Song had an idea.

Now, since the main body of the talismanic treasure was ready,

and the materials needed to make the talisman ink were no longer an issue,

it was time to set out in search of the precious materials to craft the talisman ink.

With such a thought flickering through his mind, He Song pondered for a bit and then quickly got to packing up all the belongings in his temporary cave.

The Elixir Refinement Room, artifact Refining Room, Amulet Making Room… He collected all these structures into his storage bag.

As for the numerous spirit medicines growing in the Medicine Garden, He Song decided not to take them.

Those spirit medicines were generally still in a state of growth.

If he took them, he feared it would be more trouble than it was worth.

But since He Song already knew that he would likely need to spend a considerable amount of time outside waiting for the items he needed to be delivered to his hands,

given that he didn’t know how long he would have to wait, He Song made a decisive choice and directly collected the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree from the cave into his storage bag.

He didn’t know how long this departure would take.

Considering He Song’s concerns, it would likely be as little as one to two months, or as much as several months.

Such a lengthy period.

It only made sense for He Song to not leave the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree in the cave.

Items as precious as this were safest kept on his person.

He should not repeat what happened last time and leave the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree in the cave again.

When He Song previously left to go to Hu State, he knew his trip wouldn’t take too long, which is why he decided to leave it there.

But this time was different.

Not knowing how long he would need to wait, it was wiser to carry the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree with him.

“`

If not,

should someone steal it, He Song feared the loss would be tremendous.

After putting the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree into his storage bag, He Song swept his gaze across his temporary abode.

Only after confirming that there was nothing else he needed to carry with him did He Song tunnel into the ground and head towards the distance.

He tunneled all the way,

leaving his temporary cave mansion behind.

Following his memory, He Song quickly headed towards the state mansion of Purple River State.

The state mansion of Purple River State was neither far nor near from He Song’s temporary abode.

At the speed he controlled the Lower Grade Spiritual Instrument Flying Boat, in just two days, He Song had already arrived at the location of the state mansion of Purple River State.

A few hundred miles away from the state mansion of Purple River State,

He Song slowed down and quickly set up a Celestial God Thunder Array in a valley.

After securing a way to retreat, He Song once again controlled his Lower Grade Spiritual Instrument Flying Boat and headed towards the state mansion of Purple River State.

This wasn’t He Song’s first visit to the state mansion of Purple River State.

Earlier, right after He Song had broken through to the Golden Core Realm and came to seek out Meng Guan and Wei Fan at the Golden Snake Sect, he had visited Zichuan Prefecture Government once.

That time, He Song concealed his aura and, with the power of someone at the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment stage, obtained a detailed map of the Golden Snake Sect. He also took the opportunity to better understand the sect.

Now,

When He Song set foot in Zichuan Prefecture Government for the second time, the aura of his cultivation base had changed to that of the Golden Core Realm.

There was no helping it, for the items He Song needed to purchase wouldn’t be accessible to just any minor Foundation Establishment True Person.

The cultivation base of the Golden Elixir Realm revealed to the outside world was both a display of He Song’s power and a deterrence against petty criminals.

It also served as He Song’s entry ticket to transact for the items he needed from the Main Pavilion of Treasure Pavilion within Zichuan Prefecture Government.

Items of the Golden Core Realm were mostly traded for other items.

Especially since the items He Song now sought were all precious.

If He Song still displayed the cultivation base of a mere Great Perfection at the Foundation Establishment stage, others might perceive him as weak and easy to bully.

In that case, it would not be good.

And it could even lead to trouble.

However, revealing the Golden Core cultivation was entirely different.

For a Gold Core Cultivator, being encircled and killed was quite difficult.

Other cultivators of the same level would likely need at least four of them to stand a good chance of encircling and killing an ordinary Golden Core cultivator.

Furthermore, He Song’s own strength was not weak, and with Array Skills to protect him, and the Blood-burning Escape Skill at his disposal, killing He Song would not be that simple.

Under such circumstances, He Song’s arrival naturally drew the attention of the Golden Core cultivators within Zichuan Prefecture Government. But at least for now, no one harbored any ill intentions towards him.

After entering Zichuan Prefecture Government, He Song’s figure quickly entered the Treasure Pavilion in the prefecture.

Inside Jubaoge,

He Song thoroughly communicated his needs to the Tower Master of Jubaoge.

However, he also quickly learned from the mouth of the Tower Master something that didn’t surprise him.

The items He Song sought,

while indeed available in Jubaoge,

were not complete.

If He Song could wait for some time, the Tower Master of Jubaoge could help him obtain the items from other Main Pavilions.

Nevertheless, this method would take time, but if He Song didn’t want to wait idly, he could personally visit the other Main Pavilions to make his purchases.

He Song had already mentally prepared for this, so he didn’t say much more and simply requested them to hurry so he could wait in Zichuan Prefecture Government.

After a brief conversation, He Song took his leave.

Within Zichuan Prefecture Government, He Song casually purchased a small courtyard and settled down.

According to what the Tower Master of Jubaoge had said, it would take at least two to three months for the items He Song needed to arrive.

During this time, although He Song could go back to his own cave to cultivate or even return to plant the Golden Spirit Fruit Tree again,

after contemplation, He Song still gave up this tempting idea.

Going back now would be the same as telling the other Golden Elixir Masters in Zichuan about the cave he had opened within the state.

For an outsider Golden Elixir Master who needed to wait for several months in the area, residing and waiting in the state mansion was evidently his best choice.
