As for what the One Yang Sect's order for the four major sects to unite was actually for.
Even True Person Clear Moon did not know.
The specifics.
Even she had not heard any rumors.
However, when True Person Clear Moon mentioned this matter, she clearly stated.
That if she received any news in the future, she would inform He Song immediately, and would not leave He Song in the dark.
At the same time.
Because True Person Clear Moon told He Song so much information, He Song also received a piece of news that was very unexpected, yet also within reason.
True Person Clear Moon had cultivated in the Earth Sect for so many years, and was relatively familiar with the Foundation Establishment True Persons of True Lord Fa Xuan's faction within the sect.
She had two or three who could be called close friends.
They were basically all female Foundation Establishment cultivators.
One of her close friends was one of True Lord Fa Xuan's disciples.
Named True Person Miao Qing.
The information she told He Song was all obtained from that True Person Miao Qing.
He Song had previously been wondering in his heart how True Person Clear Moon, with her cultivation only at the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage, had obtained this information.
Now, after learning this news, he understood.
It seemed.
That True Person Miao Qing was the source of True Person Clear Moon's information.
This was a disciple of True Lord Fa Xuan; although it was unknown what her cultivation level was, or whether she was favored.
But since she was a disciple of a True Lord, her source of information was naturally reliable.
After all.
This was someone who could directly hear news from True Lord Fa Xuan's location.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that she had far-reaching influence.
After repeatedly promising that if she received any new information in the future, she would inform He Song immediately, True Person Clear Moon also took her leave.
The purpose of her coming to He Song's place in person this time.
Was first to thank He Song face to face.
Second was to inform He Song of this information.
Now, both things had been done, and True Person Clear Moon naturally would not stay any longer.
As for why she chose to tell He Song this information.
That would have to be asked of Pinger, Yue'er, and Chu Shuangshuang.
After seeing True Person Clear Moon off.
He Song sorted through the new information he had received in his mind, and the major threads of the matter immediately appeared in his mind.
First.
When he was not yet at Foundation Establishment, but just a Qi Condensation cultivator.
The great calamity in the Immortal Market, the arrival of people from the Immortal City, and so on, these were all minor matters, although related to the information he had just received, the connection was not significant.
Until later, when Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market was attacked and suffered heavy losses, the Earth Sect started a war against the Seven Stars Sect, and other sects stood by and watched.
These events truly corresponded one by one with the new information he had just received.
Why did the Earth Sect have two Golden Core True Lords.
And why did they target the Seven Stars Sect.
And later, there was even a True Lord from the Upper Sect mediating.
In the end, True Lord Heavenly Pivot of the Seven Stars Sect led his followers away.
These events were actually all due to the interests of the One Yang Sect and the God Locking Sect.
They had nothing to do with the Earth Sect, the surrounding Golden Core sects, or even the Seven Stars Sect.
All of this was planned by the One Yang Sect and acquiesced to by the God Locking Sect.
As for the extra Golden Core True Lord in the Earth Sect, True Lord Fa Xuan.
His existence.
In He Song's view.
Did not seem so reasonable.
Judging from the territory of the Earth Sect, it was more than enough to support a Golden Core True Lord.
But the Earth Sect needed to pay tribute to the Upper Sect, and the resources it could harvest were naturally greatly reduced.
Each generation, it might be necessary to tighten their belts to support a Golden Core True Lord.
Under such circumstances.
True Lord Fa Xuan still emerged.
Moreover, he established a firm foothold within the Earth Sect, where the Mountain Faction had completely occupied all the lifelines.
Did he really think the Foundation Establishment True Persons of the Mountain Faction were just for show?
Without strong external pressure, as long as the Foundation Establishment True Persons of the Mountain Faction paid lip service.
Could a Golden Core True Lord who became the Sect Master of the Earth Sect really be ruthless and uproot the Mountain Faction?
Did he want this Earth Sect or not?
What's more, shortly after True Lord Fa Xuan became the Sect Master of the Earth Sect, True Lord Yan Mountain also successfully broke through and became a Golden Core True Lord.
Thus, the Earth Sect saw the scene of two True Lords gathering together.
But what happened?
True Lord Yan Mountain, who had connections, a faction, and the support of most Foundation Establishment True Persons, not only failed to regain the position of Sect Master, but also gradually allowed True Lord Fa Xuan to gain a firm foothold in the Earth Sect and begin to contend with him.
He Song would definitely not believe it if there was nothing going on here.
Especially after receiving specific information and learning that the Earth Sect's occupation of the Seven Stars Sect's territory was entirely due to the One Yang Sect's behind-the-scenes maneuvering.
He Song naturally would not think that this matter was very normal, as he had before.
This matter.
Was completely abnormal.
True Lord Fa Xuan's existence seemed to be a reason for the Earth Sect to swallow the territory of the Seven Stars Sect.
The Earth Sect had two Golden Cores.
Shouldn't it expand its territory further?
With this legitimate reason.
The territory of the Seven Stars Sect was swallowed up by the Earth Sect.
After swallowing the territory of the Seven Stars Sect, did it need a Golden Core True Lord to guard it?
What a coincidence.
The Earth Sect had two Golden Cores, one could be used to guard the original territory of the Earth Sect, and the other could be used to guard the territory of the former Seven Stars Sect.
He Song even had some guesses about the future direction of the Earth Sect.
Perhaps, when the time came.
With a slight excuse, the two Golden Core True Lords would put on a show, and to the outside world, they would say that their philosophies were incompatible, and they would directly split up.
At that time, True Lord Fa Xuan would take some Foundation Establishment True Persons and move into the territory of the former Seven Stars Sect, starting a new establishment.
And True Lord Yan Mountain would lead the Foundation Establishment True Persons of the Earth Sect's Mountain Faction and continue to live happily in the territory of the Earth Sect.
In this way.
There would no longer be two Golden Cores in one sect, nor would there be the extremely powerful Earth Sect.
Instead, there would be two Golden Core sects with strength similar to other surrounding Golden Core sects.
Other Golden Core sects would no longer be wary of the Earth Sect.
Moreover, the territory of the One Yang Sect would also advance a step, with a larger territory, and naturally more offerings in the future.
But after thinking about it, He Song still buried his guesses in his heart.
These things.
Were still uncertain for the time being.
Because the sudden alliance of the four sects really made him confused.
The power of the Earth Sect's two Golden Cores should be able to continue for a while.
There should be a follow-up to this matter.
But he didn't know.
Whether this follow-up was good or bad for him.
If it was good.
Naturally, it would be good.
If it was bad.
Perhaps he would have to run away directly.
This time, should he run to the territory of other Golden Core sects?
Or go to the One Yang Sect to have a look?
The territory of the One Yang Sect was much larger than that of the Earth Sect.
It should not be difficult to find a safe place.
Within the true territory of the One Yang Sect, his safety would also be greatly increased.
At least, he wouldn't have to worry about suddenly being involved in a war.
A Nascent Soul Upper Sect, presumably, should not be easily involved in a war, right?
Moreover.
He was not a member of the One Yang Sect, so even if the One Yang Sect really fought with other Nascent Soul Upper Sects, he should not be involved.
At most, he would just need to be careful when leaving his cave dwelling.
And avoid being conscripted.
Various thoughts flashed through He Song's mind, and after realizing that the current alliance of the four sects did not have much impact on him for the time being, he quickly put the matter aside.
Anyway, if things changed in the future.
True Person Clear Moon would inform him immediately.
Instead of worrying here, it would be better to quickly break through to the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage and gain stronger strength.
That way, even if he had to run away, he could run more smoothly.
—
Time passed slowly.
Years flowed by.
In the blink of an eye, He Song had spent another three years in Hundred Herb Immortal Market.
During these three years.
He Song cultivated every day, and the magical power in his body gradually increased with the passage of time.
His strength naturally became much stronger with the increase in magical power.
Now, three years had passed, and He Song's cultivation seemed to have reached a critical juncture.
Inside the quiet room.
He Song's expression was calm, constantly circulating the Earth Scripture, absorbing the surrounding rich spiritual energy.
Strands of spiritual energy were refined by He Song, then transformed into magical power, sinking into his Dantian.
And in He Song's Dantian.
As the spiritual energy was converted into magical power, the amount of magical power in He Song's Dantian was also steadily increasing.
One day.
At a certain moment.
He Song, who was constantly circulating the Earth Scripture and absorbing spiritual energy.
Suddenly showed a trace of surprise on his face.
"Foundation Establishment Mid Stage, achieved?"
Just now, as he was constantly circulating the Earth Scripture and absorbing spiritual energy, He Song felt the magical power in his body suddenly surge, and the divine sense hidden in his Niwan Palace also underwent a drastic change at that moment.
The surge of magical power in his body.
The drastic change of divine sense in his Niwan Palace.
And the increase in his speed of absorbing external spiritual energy.
All of this seemed to mean that He Song had stepped from the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage to the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage.
However, was there no bottleneck from breaking through from the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage to the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage?
Did breaking through from the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage to the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage only require accumulating magical power?
Did breaking through from the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage to the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage only require silent cultivation?
Various thoughts flashed through He Song's mind.
But he quickly remembered what Meng Guan had told him when he asked him before.
"The Foundation Establishment realm is the beginning of the immortal path. From the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage to the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage, most people will not have a bottleneck."
"Because as long as you can step into Foundation Establishment, it means you can embark on the immortal path."
"The immortal path is at your feet. As for how far you can go, it depends on your fortune."
"Starting from breaking through from the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, bottlenecks will gradually appear, varying from person to person."
"Of course, if you feel a bottleneck when breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage, there is no need to be discouraged."
"As a Foundation Establishment True Person, it is already much better than being a Qi Condensation cultivator."
