Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 701: Chapter 552: Terrifying Increase_2

Naturally, this also amounted to a significant favor.

Although this favor seemingly did not outweigh what He Song had previously done for the two of them.

But once these four cultivator’s Golden Cores fell into He Song’s hands, his gain would far exceed what others could imagine.

In this case, it was indeed hard to say how this favor should be calculated.

However, just as He Song was pondering these matters.

In front of him.

Meng Guan and Wei Fan exchanged glances once again upon hearing this.

A moment of hesitation flickered through both their eyes.

At this very moment.

He Song slightly perceived.

That Meng Guan and Wei Fan before him were likely communicating through divine sense.

However, since both their cultivation levels were the same as his own, in the Golden Elixir Realm, He Song was unable to hear exactly what they were discussing.

Thus.

After a moment of silence had passed.

It seemed that the two had come to an agreement.

Meng Guan then spoke up again, prompting He Song to collect the four cultivator’s Golden Cores before him.

At the same time, under He Song’s watchful gaze, Meng Guan also put away the storage bag that was before him.

Seeing this development.

Although He Song did not know exactly what Meng Guan and Wei Fan had discussed, a smile still flickered across his face.

Upon seeing that Meng Guan had accepted the storage bag he had offered.

He also consequently collected the four cultivator’s Golden Cores he had just taken out.

Since Meng Guan and Wei Fan had accepted the storage bag, then naturally, those four cultivator’s Golden Cores were now his own.

The secret communication through divine sense between Meng Guan and Wei Fan was not overheard by He Song, but with a little guesswork, he could infer what they were discussing.

It was nothing more than whether or not to accept this storage bag and how to repay him afterward.

As for anything else.

There probably wasn’t anything.

However, based on Meng Guan’s subsequent actions.

The conclusion they reached after their discussion was still to accept the storage bag offered by He Song and to complete this exchange with him.

But as for what followed this decision, how exactly the two persuaded each other to make this choice, He Song did not know.

Nor did he know what Meng Guan and Wei Fan had discussed that led them to accept the storage bag.

But as far as He Song was concerned.

Since the two had decided to accept the storage bag and complete the exchange with him.

He naturally did not need to inquire too much about the rest.

The three had supported each other all along the way, and He Song did not want to see his two good friends at a loss.

And Meng Guan and Wei Fan, why would they want He Song to be at a disadvantage?

Since they weren’t at a loss, then it sufficed to see Meng Guan and Wei Fan’s subsequent actions.

There was no need to worry too much.

With this mindset, He Song, Meng Guan, and Wei Fan all packed away the items before them.

With this exchange completed.

He Song and his group could be said to be thoroughly pleased.

Meng Guan and Wei Fan acquired a substantial amount of resources, and the cultivation and strength of the two would likely become even more formidable because of these resources.

From now on, whether they continued to join forces to hunt down Gold Core Cultivators of the Locking God Sect or embarked on other ventures, their chances of success would greatly increase.

And for He Song, he obtained four cultivator’s Golden Cores.

These four cultivator’s Golden Cores were akin to treasures that protected the path for He Song.

Once He Song had refined these four cultivator’s Golden Cores into Talismanic Treasures, his combat power would likely witness a surge in an instant.

Although Talismanic Treasures had usage limitations, possessing this offensive tool meant that He Song’s combat power was no longer comparable to what it was before.

It can be said that this exchange led to all three individuals experiencing an increase in strength.

And this boost in strength was not insignificant.

As the exchange was achieved, the atmosphere among the three within He Song’s Mansion soon relaxed once more.

After a hearty chat, He Song also came to know quite a few things which he had not been aware of before.

For example, the cultivation realm of Meng Guan.

Before coming here.

He Song had speculated about Meng Guan’s cultivation realm.

According to He Song’s conjectures at that time, Meng Guan’s cultivation level was likely stuck within the bottleneck between the Golden Elixir Early Stage and Middle Stage.

Meng Guan’s Spirit Root talent was low, merely possessing Five Spirits Roots.

With such talent, the bottlenecks faced would naturally be stronger.

He Song’s speculation was indeed in accordance with common sense.

After all, ordinary cultivators with Five Spirits Roots would find it difficult even to set foot in the Foundation Establishment, let alone advance to the Golden Core Realm.

For Meng Guan to break through the Foundation Establishment threshold with his Five Spirits Roots talent and subsequently force his way into the Golden Elixir Realm was already a sign of a heaven-defying fate.

Encountering bottlenecks after reaching the Golden Elixir Realm was quite a normal occurrence.

But.

After the hearty chat with Meng Guan and Wei Fan, He Song discovered that his speculations were actually wrong.

Meng Guan’s cultivation level had already reached the Middle Golden Core Stage, just like He Song’s own.

Moreover, he had successfully stepped into the Mid Golden Core Stage more than a decade ago.

If He Song remembered correctly.

It was precisely twenty years ago when there were tales of Meng Guan facing two enemies alone on the battlefield between the Sun Faction and the God Locking Sect.

Twenty years ago, Meng Guan, with his early Golden Core cultivation, fought against two opponents without falling short, holding out until reinforcements arrived, which made his reputation soar.

In the following few years, with the assistance of Wei Fan and other Golden Core cultivators from the Sun Faction, Meng Guan successfully besieged a God Locking Sect’s Golden Elixir Master.

A few years later, Meng Guan, again only with the help of Wei Fan, besieged yet another God Locking Sect’s Golden Elixir Master.

Initially, He Song had thought that Meng Guan’s cultivation was still in the early stage of Golden Core and felt extremely impressed by Meng Guan’s powerful strength.

But now that he thought about it.

According to what Meng Guan and Wei Fan had said.

When Meng Guan had fought against two without losing out twenty years ago, with his early Golden Core cultivation, his level had likely already touched the bottleneck of the Middle Golden Core Stage.

In the subsequent years, with the help of other Sun Faction cultivators, while besieging a God Locking Sect’s Golden Elixir Master alongside Wei Fan, Meng Guan’s cultivation had probably already reached the Middle Golden Core Stage.

Finally, when besieging an early-stage God Locking Sect cultivator with only Wei Fan, Meng Guan’s cultivation had likely already stabilized in the Middle Golden Core Stage, and he had the formidable strength of this stage.

With such thoughts, Meng Guan’s having the cultivation of the Mid Golden Core Stage, coupled with Wei Fan, an early-stage Gold Core Cultivator, surrounding and slaying a God Locking Sect’s early-stage cultivator didn’t seem too preposterous.

At the very least, it could be said there was a reasonable explanation.

After all, Meng Guan was incredibly strong to begin with, and with the help of Wei Fan, the two successfully killing an early Golden Core God Locking Sect cultivator was an understandable feat.

Upon learning the truth of the matter.

He Song naturally saw his previous thoughts dissipate like smoke.

Meng Guan’s strength was indeed formidable.

It’s just that what had happened on the battlefield wasn’t as exaggerated as He Song had previously thought.

Having clarified this point.

And learning that Meng Guan had stepped into the Mid Golden Core Stage even earlier than himself, He Song couldn’t help but look at Meng Guan with a trace of awe in his gaze.

You see, Meng Guan had formed his Golden Elixir ten years later than he had.

Yet he had managed to break through to the Mid Golden Core Stage several years earlier.

Thinking about it, the time Meng Guan took to successfully break through from the early stage to the Mid Golden Core Stage was actually ten or almost twenty years shorter than the time taken by He Song.

He Song, during his own cultivation, had never slowed down.

Even the bottlenecks had only cost him five years to break through.

Yet despite that,

it was still ten or almost twenty years slower than Meng Guan.

Such a staggering pace of cultivation advancement left He Song secretly astonished, feeling that Meng Guan’s breakthrough speed on the battlefield was simply too remarkable.

This was also why He Song was now convinced that there must be some Great Fortune with Meng Guan and that it seemed the more he engaged in warfare, the faster his cultivation would grow.

If the war between the Sun Faction and God Locking Sect continued unendingly.

He Song dared not think.

At what pace Meng Guan’s future cultivation would skyrocket.

Perhaps, by the time Meng Guan’s cultivation successfully stepped into the Golden Elixir Great Perfection or even broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he might still be stuck in the Golden Elixir Realm.
