Chapter 317 Great Formation Dissipates
One hundred years, or even more than one hundred years.
He Song, since transmigrating here, from a small Qi Condensation Stage cultivator, cultivating to the current Mid-Foundation Establishment, has only been a little over one hundred years.
If it is said that a Golden Core True Lord's closed-door cultivation is a hundred years, or even more than one hundred years, He Song absolutely does not believe it.
After all, a Golden Core True Lord's lifespan is only five hundred years.
Cultivation level breaking through from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, lifespan increases from two hundred years to five hundred years.
Five hundred years of lifespan, and a single closed-door cultivation can be a hundred years?
Cultivate in seclusion a few more times, and perhaps the five hundred years of lifespan will be directly gone.
Know that.
When a Foundation Establishment cultivator breaks through to the Golden Core stage, his own age might already be over one hundred, or even over two hundred years old.
Under such circumstances, even if successfully breaking through to the Golden Core stage and successfully increasing lifespan to five hundred years.
These five hundred years must also deduct the lifespan consumed before, which is his remaining lifespan.
For example, if a person just happens to break through to the Golden Core stage at two hundred years old, gaining a lifespan of five hundred years.
Then he will be able to live for another three hundred years.
Not that after breaking through to the Golden Core stage, he can start living another five hundred years anew.
Breaking through from Qi Condensation Stage to Foundation Establishment is also like this.
Breaking through from Qi Condensation Stage to Foundation Establishment, the success rate is highest before the age of sixty.
After sixty years old, the success rate will decrease year by year.
And breaking through to Foundation Establishment at sixty years old, after gaining a lifespan of two hundred years, there will still be one hundred and forty years of lifespan remaining.
One hundred and forty years, if bottleneck issues are not considered, it is highly likely to be able to cultivate from early Foundation Establishment to Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.
At the same time, lucky people can achieve it much earlier, and rely on this time to find various opportunities.
Used to enhance one's own strength, or to prepare for the subsequent Golden Core formation.
But.
If cultivation level reaches Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, and lifespan is approaching two hundred years, or even three hundred years old, and then breaking through from Foundation Establishment Great Perfection to Golden Core.
Then the time this cultivator can stay in the Golden Core stage will naturally be greatly reduced.
Golden Core stage gains a lifespan of five hundred years, if successfully stepping into the Golden Core stage near two hundred years old, then only three hundred years of time will remain.
If successfully stepping into the Golden Core stage near three hundred years old, then only two hundred years of time will remain.
Although there are also lifespan-extending pills that can be taken after the Golden Core stage, with such a lifespan, I am afraid there will be a huge gap compared to other cultivators who broke through to the Golden Core stage early on.
Three hundred years.
Or two hundred years.
Can one cultivate from early Golden Core to Golden Core Great Perfection?
He Song does not know the answer to this question.
But according to his guess, even if it can be achieved, I am afraid it will not be possible to continue looking forward to the Nascent Soul stage after reaching Golden Core Great Perfection.
And for cultivators with higher talent, the time required to break through from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core will be greatly reduced.
Perhaps, it is possible to successfully break through to the Golden Core stage in one hundred and some years old.
Golden Core stage at one hundred and some years old.
Compared to those cultivators who stepped into the Golden Core stage at two hundred, or even over two hundred years old.
The probability of attempting the Nascent Soul stage will naturally be greater.
Because their time is relatively more ample.
And it is precisely because of this that the vast majority of cultivators are unable to cultivate from the Golden Core stage to the Nascent Soul stage before their lifespan limit arrives.
At the same time, it is precisely because of this that cultivators' thirst for lifespan is so deep.
Lifespan.
It is always the deepest desire in a cultivator's heart.
And this is also the reason why He Song feels that there will not be Golden Core stage cultivators who spend a hundred years, or even more than one hundred years in a single closed-door cultivation.
Furthermore, He Song also discovered.
In those medicine gardens, some spirit herbs that originally only needed ten years, or several decades to harvest, have been growing in the medicine gardens for more than a hundred years.
If it were He Song, even in deep closed-door cultivation, he would extend his Divine Sense from the cave dwelling, and collect the harvestable spirit herbs into jade boxes, and would not let them continue to grow.
After all, spirit herbs, although the higher the age, the better the effect.
But some spirit herbs are actually only used to refine some specific pills, and spirit herbs with higher age will not actually sell for too much higher prices.
Rather than letting them grow, it is better to harvest them and plant them again, with Divine Sense manipulation, it does not take much effort.
Since this is the case.
The guess that this place is uninhabited naturally took root and sprouted in He Song's heart.
It was precisely because he saw these things, and came to the guess in his heart that this place is uninhabited, that He Song directly set up the Mist Veil Formation, and two other formations.
Otherwise, if he had glanced over and not seen this information, He Song would probably have run away directly.
Where would he continue to stay here, even setting up several formations in this place.
After setting up formations outside the valley, He Song hid within the formations, and began to wait quietly.
As time passed.
The Golden Core Great Array set up within the valley became increasingly chaotic.
The ripples that He Song had seen before also continuously began to appear, making the scene behind the formation within the valley clearer to He Song.
Those two golden-armored guards still guarded the cave dwelling entrance.
And the spirit rice and spirit herbs planted in those Spirit Fields and medicine gardens were still growing.
Such a scene continued to appear for a very long time.
Until finally.
The Golden Core Great Array that enveloped the entire valley completely dissipated due to the shortage of spirit stones, and the entire valley finally revealed its true appearance in front of He Song.
When he saw the Golden Core Great Array within the valley dissipate silently, He Song, hidden in the Mist Veil Formation, also breathed a great sigh of relief at this moment.
The dissipation time of the Golden Core Great Array was about the same as his expectation.
From the first appearance of disorder to the complete dissipation now, there was a long period of buffer time in between.
Until today, this Golden Core Great Array finally dissipated.
And while waiting for the Golden Core Great Array to dissipate, He Song also had a preliminary solution for the two golden-armored guards within the valley.
The combat power of the golden-armored guards is unknown.
But the place where they are located is exactly at the entrance of the cave dwelling.
If they are not dealt with, He Song will not be able to enter the cave dwelling and will not be able to obtain the opportunity inside the cave dwelling.
Therefore, if he wants to obtain the things inside the cave dwelling, He Song must deal with them.
No matter what method is used.
After thinking of this, He Song's first thought was naturally to send out his spirit puppets to first probe the strength of these two golden-armored guards, and then talk about the follow-up.
In the situation of not knowing the specific combat power of these two golden-armored guards in front of him.
Thinking too much is actually meaningless.
If the combat power of these two golden-armored guards is comparable to Golden Core, He Song would probably turn around and leave directly, without the slightest hesitation.
Two puppets with combat power comparable to the Golden Core stage are not something the current He Song can contend with.
If he could bring all the people of the Earth Sect over, then there might still be a fight.
But if he really did this, the opportunity inside would probably have nothing to do with He Song.
Facing such an opportunity location that only stays in place and will not run away, He Song would absolutely not inform others about it.
He would rather wait until his strength is sufficient to come back and open it, than be willing to give away the opportunity he has painstakingly found to others.
Moreover.
This opportunity here was told to him by Lin Cong before his death.
It is a dying request from a friend.
He absolutely must not give it away.
Looking distantly in the direction of Lin Cong's descendants, He Song secretly made a decision in his heart.
In the future, if among Lin Cong's descendants, there really appear good seedlings with spirit roots, he should also help them a bit.
This opportunity location in front of him, for Lin Cong to tell him about it before his death, can be said to be a great favor.
If he obtains extremely valuable items from it, how can he ignore Lin Cong's contribution?
If it were not for Lin Cong, this opportunity here would probably have nothing to do with him.
Even if the opportunity appears, it would be the Earth Sect's.
It would have nothing to do with He Song, a rogue cultivator Foundation Establishment.
Such thoughts flashed through his mind, He Song retracted his gaze, and then gently waved his hand.
Instantly.
Four spirit puppets appeared in front of He Song.
Clear Wind, Bright Moon, Leisure Cloud, Wild Crane.
The four spirit puppets under He Song's command, now their individual combat power can already contend with Mid-Foundation Establishment cultivators.
But according to He Song's guess, this level of strength in the hands of those two golden-armored guards not far away, should not be worth mentioning.
However, it should also be able to probe the strength of those two golden-armored guards.
With a thought in his heart.
The four spirit puppets in front of He Song instantly broke away from the Mist Veil Formation, and sped towards the valley.
But He Song's figure, at this moment, fully activated the Purple Sky Quiet Meditation Scripture, Dust Clothing Technique, and Breath Concealment Technique, wanting to reduce his sense of presence to the lowest.
He Song, cautious by nature, although in his heart he already felt that this place must be uninhabited.
However, when it came to actually taking action, he still subconsciously wanted to perfectly protect himself, to avoid capsizing in the gutter.
In such a situation, He Song would naturally subconsciously hide himself, only using his eyes to observe the movements outside.
The four spirit puppets do not need He Song to personally control them.
After he set what needed to be done next for the four spirit puppets, the four spirit puppets would follow He Song's will, meticulously completing the instructions issued by He Song.
The instruction He Song issued to the four spirit puppets was not to enter the valley to provoke those two golden-armored guards.
But to enter the valley and harvest spirit rice and spirit herbs.
If a fight really breaks out, the spirit rice and spirit herbs in the valley are very likely to be destroyed due to the fighting between the two sides.
These spirit rice and spirit herbs, now they have already been regarded as his own by He Song.
How could he possibly let these things be destroyed in the upcoming battle?
Spirit herbs, they are all spirit herbs that are over a hundred years old, among them there are many precious spirit herbs, and there are also some spirit herbs that He Song does not recognize at all, presumably they are of considerable value.
Spirit rice, spirit rice planted by a Golden Core True Lord, and it has already been planted for more than a hundred years, the value of these spirit rice can naturally be imagined.
Such precious things, naturally, putting them safely into his pocket first is the most important.
It is precisely because of this.
When He Song issued instructions to the four spirit puppets, he directly ordered the four spirit puppets to set off from various places, and the first priority was to harvest the spirit rice and spirit herbs in the valley.
This time, as long as all the spirit rice and spirit herbs in the valley are harvested, it will be considered a victory.
