Chapter 183: Foundation Establishment Success

And that meeting, until today, the two had not seen each other again.

Now it seemed.

Lin Cong should be living quite well in Green Wall Immortal City.

To be able to have the opportunity to attempt Foundation Establishment before the age of sixty as a wandering cultivator, Lin Cong's strength probably wasn't weak.

But even so, Lin Cong, who had a sturdy build in his impression, still fell at the chasm of Foundation Establishment.

It made He Song sigh inwardly.

Back then.

When he had just met Lin Cong, he was constantly on guard against Lin Cong, in case he suddenly attacked.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to reveal the news that he had a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Condensation as his backer.

This made Lin Cong wary and he began to intentionally befriend him.

Thus, the relationship between the two of them, with the passage of time, became much better.

After several years of interaction, the two already called each other friends. . And when Lin Cong was the first to break through to the middle stage of Qi Condensation, the two had a good meal at the Osmanthus Restaurant in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market.

However, all of this was in the past.

Now, He Song was already a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and his future immortal path was long.

But now, Lin Cong had already failed his Foundation Establishment and was preparing to return to Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market to spend his remaining years.

Between the two of them.

The gap in their statuses had become increasingly large.

Perhaps, when he saw Lin Cong again, Lin Cong would already be old and decrepit. ?

He sighed.

Putting the paper in his hand into his storage pouch.

He Song was not in a hurry to reply. . Instead, he looked at the other piece of paper.

"Fellow Daoist He, it has been more than ten years since we last parted at Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market. . I wonder how you have been recently. ."

"I was lucky enough to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill at an auction in Green Wall Immortal City some time ago. ."

"I also shamelessly asked Brother Meng for his experiences regarding Foundation Establishment. ."

"Now I have successfully established my foundation and will be heading to the Earth Sect's mountain gate soon. ."

"At that time, Fellow Daoist He and I will be fellow disciples. ."

"In the future, we should interact more. ."

"Zhao Lin. ."

His gaze swept across the lines of writing on the paper. . He Song's mind immediately conjured up Zhao Lin's appearance.

Zhao Lin.

Was a connection that Meng Guan had given to He Song before going to the Red Spirit Gold Mine.

His relationship with Meng Guan had once been very good.

But later, when Meng Guan went to the Red Spirit Gold Mine, the relationship between the two gradually faded.

So much so that later He Song was brought into the Earth Sect by Meng Guan, but Zhao Lin still remained at Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market.

Meng Guan seemed to have forgotten about him.

Or perhaps he had remembered him, but did not say anything.

He Song had not asked, so he did not know the reason.

Zhao Lin was also considered a friend of He Song. . When they were in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market, Zhao Lin had used his authority more than once to seek benefits for He Song.

Therefore, seeing Zhao Lin say that he was lucky enough to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill and, relying on their past camaraderie, asked Meng Guan about his Foundation Establishment experiences, He Song was not surprised.

Zhao Lin was a talisman master.

Moreover, he was a senior talisman master, able to draw many spirit talismans, and the spirit stones he could earn by using these spirit talismans would naturally be many.

Under such circumstances.

He Song had actually long assumed that Zhao Lin would have a certain chance of establishing his foundation.

At the same time, he had also guessed that Zhao Lin would be able to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Talisman masters were also very good at earning spirit stones.

Although not as good as He Song's formation path, talisman masters like Zhao Lin, who had been constantly studying the talisman path since they were young, would not be slow at earning spirit stones.

Before the age of sixty, saving up tens of thousands of spirit stones, according to He Song's guess, although difficult, was not impossible.

Foundation Establishment Pills appeared in Green Wall Immortal City.

According to He Song's estimate, one pill would cost tens of thousands of spirit stones.

With Zhao Lin's wealth, if he emptied his pockets, he would probably be able to bid.

With a bit of luck, he might even be able to buy it.

Of course.

Outside of the Earth Sect.

Every time a Foundation Establishment Pill appeared, it would inevitably cause a commotion.

What exactly Zhao Lin did when this Foundation Establishment Pill appeared, and how he obtained the Foundation Establishment Pill.

He Song did not know.

In Zhao Lin's letter, he only stated the result.

As for the process, he did not mention it at all.

He Song could not guess.

It was just that He Song did not expect.

With just one Foundation Establishment Pill.

And a copy of Foundation Establishment experiences.

Zhao Lin had actually successfully established his foundation.

These conditions.

Although much better than when Meng Guan established his foundation.

In fact, such Foundation Establishment conditions could even be comparable to those of some outer disciples of the Earth Sect.

But, when Zhao Lin really said that he had successfully established his foundation, He Song still felt a hint of surprise.

He frowned and pondered for a moment.

After thinking for a while, He Song still sent each of them a message paper crane.

Saying that he was in closed-door cultivation to heal his injuries.

When he had time later, he would definitely visit them.

After doing all this, He Song stepped out of the quiet room and soon began to wander around his cave dwelling under the cover of the Mist Veil Formation.

Now.

He Song was fifty-nine years old.

With He Song's usual cultivation speed, he would definitely be able to cultivate to the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation before he turned fifty-eight.

This could be known by simply calculating the time.

Therefore, He Song could only tell others that he had failed his first breakthrough attempt and was now recuperating.

But other than He Song.

No one knew.

He had actually successfully broken through to the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation at the age of fifty-six.

 And with the help of six Foundation Establishment Pills, several copies of Foundation Establishment experiences, and the Dantian Settling Technique, he had successfully established his foundation.

In the three years since he had broken through to Foundation Establishment.

He had already learned the Blood Escape Technique. . And the technique he was learning was also the Divine Sense attack technique, the Divine Piercing Arrow.

At this moment, He Song.

Was a true Foundation Establishment True Person!

The outside world only knew.

That He Song failed his first attempt to break through to Foundation Establishment at the age of fifty-eight.

Now, he was in a two-year recuperation period.

There was even pessimism about whether He Song could establish his foundation before the age of sixty.

After all, even Chu Shuangshuang had failed her Foundation Establishment. 

He Song, a sect disciple who had started halfway, naturally would not have a high success rate in establishing his foundation.

The effect He Song wanted to achieve by hiding like this was naturally this.

Only in this way.

When he established his foundation, he would not attract too much attention.

Everyone would think that He Song was just lucky to have established his foundation, and that he was just lucky.

But they did not know.

That He Song was able to get to where he was today.

It was completely different from what they thought.

To be able to get to where he was today, He Song relied entirely on his own strength, not luck!

He came to the medicinal garden.

Fiddled with the spirit medicines.

He went to the spirit fields.

Tended to the spirit fields.

He passed by the river.

Took a look at the egg he had picked up three years ago.

Three years ago.

On the eve of his Foundation Establishment, He Song picked up an egg with a trace of spiritual energy from the riverbank.

In the past three years.

He Song didn't put much thought into that egg. . After breaking through to Foundation Establishment, He Song brought the egg back from a corner dozens of miles away.

Then, he had been throwing it by the river, letting it fend for itself.

However.

Now, three years had passed, but the egg that He Song had picked up was still just an egg.

Crystal clear, with a shadow inside.

Observed with the Spirit Eye Technique, it also contained a trace of spiritual energy.

For three years.

This egg had not spoiled, nor had it hatched anything.

If he hadn't been able to sense that the life aura in the egg was becoming more and more obvious, He Song would have thought that the egg had gone bad.

But now, three years had passed, and the egg had not spoiled, nor had it hatched anything.

It also made He Song feel a little puzzled.

Was this egg a little unlike an ordinary object. ?

What kind of egg could be thrown by the river, and stay unspoiled for three years. ?

The key was that after three years, the life aura inside was still getting stronger.

Could it be that he was lucky enough to pick up a treasure. ?

He held the egg in his hand and played with it carefully, but He Song could not see anything special about it.

The spiritual energy contained in the egg was just so-so, very thin.

If he were to say that this egg was some kind of mysterious bird, phoenix, vermilion bird, or true dragon, He Song would definitely not believe it.

The spiritual energy contained in the egg was too little.

But if it were said to be an ordinary object, it contained some spiritual energy, and it could also maintain its activity for a long time.

In this way, this egg did not seem like an ordinary object.

After playing with it for a while.

He Song thought about it and decided to bring the egg back to his cave dwelling.

Now.

He Song's Foundation Establishment was complete.

Even if something strange hatched from the egg.

He should be able to handle it.

This egg.

It might have been thrown by the river, and the temperature was not suitable, so it had not hatched for three years.

If he put the egg in a place with a suitable temperature, it should be able to hatch.

With this thought in mind, He Song began to incubate the egg for several days.

At the same time.

He could also take this time to completely calm his mood.

Several days later.

Perhaps because the temperature was suitable.

The egg, which had not hatched anything for three years, suddenly cracked at this moment.

He Song raised his eyes and swept his gaze.

He saw a small turtle crawling out of the eggshell, looking around curiously.

Spiritual light flashed in his eyes.

He Song quickly discovered that the body of this small turtle also contained a trace of spiritual energy.

It seemed.

It was a spirit beast.

Moreover.

Turtle-type spirit beasts had long lifespans and liked quietness rather than movement. . They were perfect for guarding the house and courtyard.

He only needed to control this small turtle with a Beast Control Token, and he would have his first spirit beast in his life.

It was just that this turtle did not quite match his status as a Foundation Establishment True Person.

It seemed that it could only be used to guard the house and courtyard, and could not be taken out to meet other fellow Daoists.

This thought flashed through his mind.

He Song quickly made up his mind that he must go and catch a better-looking spirit beast in the future to be his mount.

As for this turtle.

Just use it to guard the house.

After all, he had also incubated it for several days, and it would not be good to just ignore it.

Now, after several days of adjustment, He Song's state of mind had become as calm as water. . He had the idea of keeping this turtle to guard the house and courtyard.

After making the decision.

He Song casually gave the newly hatched little turtle some food.

Then he stepped into the quiet room again and began to practice the Divine Piercing Arrow.

Raising a small turtle.

He Song did not need to take care of it much on a daily basis.

He only needed to feed it some food when he remembered, or let it out of the cave dwelling and let it forage for food on its own within the Mist Veil Formation.

Peace of mind.

It was also one of the reasons why He Song raised it.

Even if He Song went into closed-door cultivation for three to five years, this spirit beast turtle would probably not starve to death.
