Chapter 47: Destroying the Corpse and Erasing Traces

With this in mind, He Song quickly began planning the future use of his spirit stones.

First of all.

Skills!

Skills are cheap – a common Qi Refining skill only costs ten spirit stones.

Although special skills for the Qi Refining stage are slightly more expensive, they should not be too costly.

He probably wouldn’t have to spend many spirit stones to learn all the skills he would like to learn.

This is the easiest way to increase one’s strength.

Moreover, there are many Qi Refining skills that have various unique applications and can greatly contribute to other aspects of one’s abilities.

For example, the Spirit Vision Skill, Sound Transmission Skill, or Breath

Concealment Formulas are just like this.

Of course, practicing skills takes a long time.

But He Song has a stronger soul than ordinary cultivators, as he came from another world, and his learning speed for skills is also much faster than ordinary cultivators.

It would be a waste not to take advantage of this great asset.

Aside from that.

There are spirit amulets!

The spirit amulets play a significant role during the Qi Refining stage.

A low-quality Thick Earth Amulet that costs five spirit stones can resist attacks from the Qi Refining Early Stage several times, as well as some offensive power from the Qi Refining Mid Stage.

A mid-quality Thick Earth Amulet costing twenty spirit stones could resist several Qi Refining Mid Stage attacks and some offensive power from the Qi Refining Late Stage.

A low-quality Golden Light Amulet costing five spirit stones has incredible lethality. If there is no Defense Spirit Amulet or Artifacts to guard against it, a Qi Refining Early Stage cultivator will not be able to take it without suffering.

However, the duration of these spirit amulets is generally short, often lasting only about ten breaths.

As the duration is short, the price is relatively high.

Ordinary cultivators usually carry a few, and more cautious ones may bring ten or more for self-defense.

But during the Qi Refining stage, it is never wrong to carry extra spirit amulets with you.

This is also why many cultivators choose to dabble as an amulet Tao master.

Creating your own amulets is more cost-effective once you become proficient, and selling unwanted amulets can help supplement household expenses. Amulet Tao masters tend to make a decent amount of money.

Aside from skills and spirit amulets, there are Artifacts.

Low-quality Artifacts can be purchased at the Artifacts Pavilion in Immortal Pavilion, with prices fluctuating around 100 spirit stones depending on factors such as newness and style.

Mid-quality Artifacts are more expensive, usually priced around 500 spirit stones.

In the Cultivation World.

Generally, Qi Refining Early and Mid Stage cultivators have low cultivation levels and limited wealth, so they mainly use low-quality Artifacts.

Having an offensive and defensive set of low-quality Artifacts would already put one above the vast majority of cultivators at the Early and Mid Stage of Qi Refining.

After all, He Song has already reached the Qi Refining Mid Stage, but at this point, he doesn’t even have a single low-quality Artifact.

Most other cultivators in the Immortal Pavilion are just like that.

Only loose cultivators, who face survival pressures in the outside world, would grit their teeth and purchase protective Artifacts for themselves during the Qi Refining Early Stage.

Meanwhile, Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators have abundant spirit power, so they basically use mid-quality Artifacts.

The Artifacts Wei Fan exchanged three years ago were both in a mid-quality offensive and defensive set.

This is considered to be normal among Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators.

As for high-quality and top-quality Artifacts.

They are only considered after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.

They are too expensive and consume too much spirit power, making Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators generally unwilling to purchase them.

Of course, there are also Qi Refining Late Stage cultivators who use high-quality Artifacts, but since they consume too much spirit power, they are typically used only as trump cards, with only a few strikes of power.

Skills.

Spirit amulets.

Artifacts.

All these cultivation-aiding methods require a large amount of spirit stones.

After careful consideration, He Song decided, for the time being, to first master the Array Tao Introduction and set up the simplest Spirit-Gathering Array to improve his cultivation speed.

Later, he would spend spirit stones to learn skills and purchase spirit amulets.

Once he had enough spirit stones, he could proceed to buy Artifacts.

In this way, he would not delay his cultivation progress and also strengthen his battle capabilities.

Simply perfect!

Although his combat strength couldn’t be improved for the time being.

However, the Immortal Pavilion was relatively safe with the protection of

Foundation Establishment Masters. As lonq as no huze turmoil took place, the security was extremely strong.

After making up his mind, He Song poured himself a cup of tea and waited for Wei Fan in the small courtyard.

At night.

He Song set down the teacup in his hand, feeling a trace of worry in his heart.

Wei Fan had been gone for quite some time but still had not returned.

Could it be…

An unpleasant thought flashed through He Song’s mind as he looked at the darkening sky outside the courtyard, frowning gradually.

It shouldn’t be. After all, Wei Fan was a Qi-refining late stage cultivator, and he had just replaced his Artifacts and had enough spirit amulets on hand. How could he possibly fail against a fourth- tier Qi Refiner like Chen Zhou?

The difference in strength was too large.

However, just as He Song was starting to lose his patience and about to release a sound-transmitting paper crane to find out what happened.

Two figures appeared at the courtyard gate.

They were arm in arm, looking as if they hadn’t seen each other for a long time and were genuinely excited.

At first glance, He Song thought they were two drunkards.

But after observing carefully, He Song’s face revealed a smile of joy.

Pod pod pod…

With a series of rapid footsteps, He Song quickly arrived at the courtyard gate.

He opened the door.

“Wei, Lao Meng, what is this?” Looking at the two men hugging each other, He Song welcomed them into the courtyard before asking.

That’s right, the two men who appeared arm in arm were Wei Fan and Meng Guan.

Having been gone for three years at the Red Spirit Gold Mine without any news, Meng Guan now suddenly stood right in front of He Song, alive and well.

And what’s more, he came back with Wei Fan.

This scene filled He Song’s heart with questions.

Of course, after ushering the two men into the courtyard, he immediately started asking questions.

“Take a seat first, let’s sit down and talk slowly.” Wei Fan smiled, leading the two up to the loft.

Only after all three were seated and had a cup of tea in front of them did Wei Fan point to Meng Guan and began explaining to He Song.

“This time when I left the Immortal Pavilion, it was to kill Chen Zhou, right? After I chased him out of the Immortal Pavilion, he disappeared like a slippery fish.”

“Fortunately, he encountered me. Just three years ago, I happened to learn a Tracking Skill. After casting the tracking skill, I chased him in the direction he fled for half a day.”

“I don’t know how far I went from the Immortal Pavilion, but as the sky gradually darkened, I finally caught up with him and killed him.”

“Coincidentally, just as I was about to turn his bones to ashes as He Song instructed, someone happened to pass by.”

“At first, I thought I’d kill that person as well, but then that person called me

‘Weil.”

“So, we came back together.”

Looking at Meng Guan next to him, Wei Fan spoke with a somewhat strange expression on his face.

He didn’t expect to encounter Meng Guan, who had just left the Red Spirit Gold Mine and was about to return to the Immortal Pavilion, right after he had killed someone and was in the process of disposing of the body as He Song had instructed.

At that time, Meng Guan had asked him with a puzzled face what he was doing. What else could he be doing….destroying the corpse and concealing his tracks!
