Chapter 184: One Year Later

Thus.

Another year passed in the blink of an eye.

During this year.

He Song became increasingly proficient with the Divine Piercing Arrow. 

In the end, he finally cultivated the Divine Piercing Arrow to the point where he could use it freely without diminishing its power.

The cultivation of the Divine Piercing Arrow was indeed quite difficult.

Counting the days.

Even He Song spent a full two and a half years to finally cultivate the Divine Piercing Arrow to the point where he could use it freely without diminishing its power.

According to He Song's original guess, after his cultivation reached the Foundation Establishment realm, cultivating various techniques of the Foundation Establishment realm would basically only take about two years.

Simpler ones, such as the Blood Escape Technique, only took a year and a half.

But the Divine Piercing Arrow took He Song a full two and a half years to fully master.

It seemed that the difficulty of cultivating this Divine Piercing Arrow was indeed more difficult than other Foundation Establishment realm techniques.

Moreover.

This two and a half years was because He Song cultivated techniques faster than other cultivators, so it only took two and a half years.

If it were other ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators, it would probably take three or four years to learn.

After fully mastering the Divine Piercing Arrow, being able to use it freely and without diminishing its power.

He Song finally breathed a sigh of relief and left his quiet room.

However, just as He Song stepped out of the quiet room, he saw a palm-sized small turtle lying on its back with its four feet facing the sky on the ground in front of the quiet room's door.

 It seemed to be complaining about his irresponsibility as its owner.

Seeing this.

He Song casually waved his hand.

 Magical power immediately surged from his body, lifting the small turtle on the ground and bringing it into He Song's hand.

After careful examination.

He Song came to the conclusion.

It wasn't dead.

Alright.

Putting down the small turtle and throwing down some food for it, He Song then walked into the tea room.

He brewed himself a pot of hot tea.

As the tea fragrance filled the air, He Song picked up the teacup and took a light sip.

Noticing that after the tea entered his stomach, his magical power increased by a tiny bit, a look of disdain flashed in He Song's eyes.

This tea had a significant effect for cultivators in the Qi Condensation stage.

But for Foundation Establishment cultivators, it could only be said to be better than nothing.

The increase in cultivation was too small.

It seemed that in the future, the tea he drank daily would have to be changed to Foundation Establishment realm spirit tea.

With this thought in mind, He Song casually calculated with his fingers.

He found that his age was very close to the sixty-year limit.

In just over half a month, his age would reach sixty years.

Seeing this.

He Song pondered for a moment, then casually took out a thin sheet of paper. . Spiritual energy surged, and he began to carve lines of writing on the thin sheet of paper.

"Fellow Daoist, I am about to reach my sixtieth year. . My Foundation Establishment failure two years ago may have affected my Dao Heart. ."

"I have now left the sect, seeking an opportunity for a breakthrough while mending the deficiency in my Dao Heart. ."

"If I succeed, I will return to the sect to report the good news. ."

"If I fail, I will also return to the sect after recovering from my injuries and await the sect's instructions. ."

"Do not worry. ."

"He Song. ."

After斟酌his words, He Song made up a reason for not breaking through to Foundation Establishment within the sect.

At the same time, he did not forget to leave a reassuring message, saying that if he succeeded, he would return to the sect to report the good news.

. If he failed, he would return to the sect after recovering from his injuries and await instructions.

In this way.

Even if He Song broke through to Foundation Establishment outside the sect, upon seeing this letter, the people in the sect would probably not have any doubts.

This was He Song's message to his close friends.

Anyone who saw it would not think that He Song was making up a story.

After all, who knew that He Song had actually broken through to the Foundation Establishment realm long ago, and had been acting for several years in advance. ?

In the eyes of others, He Song had no reason to make up a story.

At the same time, he had no motive to make up a story.

Because He Song already had two Foundation Establishment Pills and two Foundation Establishment True Person friends from the sect.

With such an identity and wealth, why would he make up a story. ?

Failing the first attempt to break through to Foundation Establishment affected his Dao Heart, making him no longer confident, wasn't that normal. ?

Before the second attempt to break through to Foundation Establishment, going outside the sect to mend his Dao Heart, wasn't that also very normal. ?

And when He Song returned to the sect as a Foundation Establishment True Person.

The existence of this Message Talisman also proved the truth of what He Song said in the letter.

At that time.

No one would doubt why He Song left the sect to break through.

They would only sigh that He Song was really lucky to be able to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm when his sixtieth year was approaching.

Having this Message Talisman was just one layer of insurance that He Song had set up for his departure from the sect to establish his foundation.

After making several copies of the writing on this thin sheet of paper.

And sending them to Meng Guan, Wei Fan, Pinger, and Zhao Lin respectively.

He Song quickly received replies from several of them.

In their replies.

Whether it was Meng Guan or Wei Fan, or Pinger and Zhao Lin, they all expressed their understanding of He Song's actions.

At the same time, they all wished He Song success in his Foundation Establishment.

And they also each expressed regret that they could not come to protect He Song.

Seeing this, He Song did not communicate with them too much.

Speaking too much would inevitably lead to mistakes.

He Song thought for a moment, and his gaze quickly turned towards Green Wall Immortal City.

If he wanted to mend his Dao Heart.

He would probably have to go to Green Wall Immortal City.

Using the Breath Concealment Technique to go to Green Wall Immortal City.

As long as he didn't encounter other Foundation Establishment True Persons, He Song would still be able to hide his cultivation.

But if he was in the Earth Sect. . . it probably wouldn't be so easy to hide.

Because the Earth Sect had Foundation Establishment True Persons guarding the gate and Golden Core True Lords presiding.

He Song was not sure whether the Breath Concealment Technique could fool a Golden Core True Lord.

Even for Foundation Establishment True Persons, He Song could only guarantee that as long as he did not encounter them face to face, they would not be able to sense his Foundation Establishment aura just by sensing.

If they really met face to face, they might be able to see through it at a glance.

Therefore, He Song needed to sneak into Green Wall Immortal City while using the Breath Concealment Technique.

Then set up a Minor Spirit Gathering Formation in his temporary residence, manually manipulating the Minor Spirit Gathering Formation to begin drawing in the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Forming a small spiritual energy vortex.

It didn't need to be big.

It only needed to be like when Meng Guan broke through before, forming a medium-sized spiritual energy vortex.

Under such circumstances, he only needed to sit cross-legged in the quiet room and release his divine sense to cover the quiet room, and then he could quietly wait for things to develop.

If an unfamiliar divine sense came to investigate.

When the two divine senses came into contact, that unfamiliar divine sense would confirm that someone was breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm in Green Wall Immortal City.

Out of respect for Foundation Establishment True Persons, and the taboo in the cultivation world of not using divine sense to scan another person's body, the moment the two divine senses came into contact, the other party would retreat.

After He Song finished his breakthrough, they would personally come to visit.

Just like when Meng Guan broke through to Foundation Establishment, True Person Clear Moon came in person.

In this way.

The news that He Song mended his Dao Heart and broke through to the Foundation Establishment realm in Green Wall Immortal City would immediately spread.

What he said and what he did would be able to verify each other.

Even if someone in the Earth Sect was suspicious, after learning of this matter, they would probably not have too many doubts about He Song leaving the sect to break through to Foundation Establishment.

After all.

Although He Song's Foundation Establishment this time was not within the mountain gate, it was also within the immortal city.

The Foundation Establishment True Person who personally came to see He Song in the immortal city would be able to testify for He Song.

Naturally, no one would doubt He Song's departure from the sect to establish his foundation.

When He Song achieved Foundation Establishment and returned to the sect, the treatment he received would naturally not be affected in any way.

He Song had been in the Earth Sect for more than ten years.

He had been in the Earth Sect for so many years.

Now that he had established his foundation, it was a sect disciple successfully establishing his foundation, which was a great joyous occasion.

What's more.

Foundation Establishment True Persons had a different status.

. Even if someone really suspected something, seeing that He Song had returned to the Earth Sect, they would not have any objections.

He Song, Wei Fan, and Meng Guan, these three Foundation Establishment True Persons banding together, were a force that could not be ignored.

Thus, He Song no longer needed to worry about his departure from the sect to break through being questioned by others.

After planning everything.

He Song stayed in the cave dwelling for another two days.

Only then did he get up and leave his cave dwelling.

Using the Breath Concealment Technique all the way.

And the Mountain-Linking Earth Traveling Art.

He Song's figure soon arrived outside Green Wall Immortal City.

After delaying for two days, with He Song's current speed, he was much faster than he was when he was at the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation.

In this way.

According to the speed of the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation, He Song set out from the Earth Sect, and after these days, he could just happen to arrive in Green Wall Immortal City at this time.

This time was also calculated by He Song.

After entering Green Wall Immortal City, He Song quickly rented a room in an inn in the west of the city for some spirit stones.

From then on.

The first half of He Song's plan also unfolded.

In the inn.

He Song stayed for several days.

Until one day.

He Song sat cross-legged on a futon, but he had set up a Minor Spirit Gathering Formation around him.

With a thought from He Song, he began to control the Minor Spirit Gathering Formation to operate at full speed, constantly gathering spiritual energy from all directions.

At the same time, he also opened himself up to absorb spiritual energy, causing the spiritual energy that was constantly gathering from all directions to gradually increase.

After gradually forming a medium-sized spiritual energy vortex in mid-air.

He Song also timely extended his divine sense, covering the entire room he was in under the perception of his divine sense.

After doing all this.

He Song extended his divine sense and sensed the spiritual energy vortex that appeared above the inn, and he also nodded secretly in his heart.

The spiritual energy vortex was medium-sized, almost identical to when Meng Guan broke through to the Foundation Establishment realm.

Under such circumstances.

It should be able to attract the attention of others soon.

At the same time, the Foundation Establishment True Persons in Green Wall Immortal City would probably come to investigate soon.

At that time.

The moment he sensed the other party's divine sense, half of his plan would be successful.

Next.

Was to wait quietly.

A spiritual energy vortex appeared above an inn in Green Wall Immortal City.

Such a scene immediately caused a strong shock among all the cultivators in Green Wall Immortal City who observed this scene.

Anyone knew.

To be able to trigger a spiritual energy vortex in a place with abundant spiritual energy like Green Wall Immortal City.

Either someone was breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm and was consolidating their cultivation at this moment.

Or a Golden Core True Lord was cultivating here, which could cause such a big commotion.
