Chapter 427 Temporarily Farewell Old Friend
The nearest Eight Vein Immortal City was only about an hour away.
It could be said that this place, for He Song, could also be considered a good place to establish a cave dwelling.
However.
This place was relatively close to the border of the One Yang Sect, and very close to the battlefield between the Righteous Sect Alliance and the Demon Sect Alliance.
Although this place was within the sphere of influence of the One Yang Sect, if the One Yang Sect and the God Locking Sect were to fight in the future, this place would probably become a new battlefield.
Therefore, although he felt that the vicinity of the Flying Cloud Immortal Market was a good place for him to build a Golden Core cave dwelling, He Song, after thinking it over, ultimately abandoned the idea of building a Golden Core cave dwelling here.
This place was not safe enough, and he would probably have to go deeper into the hinterland of the One Yang Sect to build his own Golden Core cave dwelling.
It's just that.
At the thought of going to the hinterland of the One Yang Sect, a trace of unease flashed in He Song's heart.
As a Nascent Soul Upper Sect, the One Yang Sect's control over its hinterland was probably far beyond what the border area he was currently in could compare to.
If he, a Golden Core cultivator who had just broken through to the Golden Core Stage, went to the hinterland of the One Yang Sect.
What if he was discovered by the people of the One Yang Sect and forcibly driven to join the Righteous-Demon War?
With such thoughts flashing through his mind, He Song also became hesitant about whether or not to go to the hinterland of the One Yang Sect to build his Golden Core cave dwelling.
In the border area of the One Yang Sect, although it was more dangerous, the One Yang Sect's control would be slightly weaker.
He Song would not be discovered by the people of the One Yang Sect here.
But if he went to the hinterland of the One Yang Sect, although it would be safer, there was a high probability that he would be discovered by the people of the One Yang Sect and forcibly sent to participate in the Righteous-Demon War.
Thinking like this, He Song's gaze also turned to other directions of the One Yang Sect.
Currently, the place where He Song was located was the northern border of the One Yang Sect, adjacent to the God Locking Sect.
The One Yang Sect and the God Locking Sect had been testing each other for a long time, and war might break out at any time.
Therefore, He Song was unwilling to stay here for long.
But going to the hinterland of the One Yang Sect might lead to being conscripted.
In this way, He Song naturally quickly turned his attention to other directions within the sphere of influence of the One Yang Sect.
The east of the One Yang Sect was adjacent to the Purple Cloud Sect, the west was adjacent to the Nether Blade Sect, and the south was adjacent to the Golden Snake Sect.
These three Nascent Soul Upper Sects, being Righteous Sects like the One Yang Sect, should not need to worry about war or disaster.
In addition, the places within He Song's sight, as alternative choices, were almost the same as this place, all meeting He Song's needs for a Golden Core cave dwelling.
These places were all remote, and not too far or too near from the state capitals of the major Immortal Prefectures, but also adjacent to some Immortal Cities and Immortal Markets, which was relatively convenient on weekdays.
At the same time, these places were all located on the border, and adjacent to other Righteous Sects.
While there was no need to worry about the One Yang Sect starting a war with other Righteous Sects, the One Yang Sect's degree of control over these places was probably not too strong.
Just like Cloud Prefecture where He Song was currently located, the location of the One Yang Sect's mountain gate was far away from here, and its control over Cloud Prefecture was certainly not as strong as its hinterland.
If going to the hinterland of the One Yang Sect, He Song was very likely to be discovered by the people of the One Yang Sect and conscripted.
Then going to other border areas, He Song naturally did not need to consider these things.
Just like he was in Cloud Prefecture, the One Yang Sect's control over other border Immortal Prefectures should also be inferior to its hinterland.
In this way, even if the One Yang Sect fought with the God Locking Sect later.
He Song, who built his cave dwelling in these places, did not need to worry about people from the Demon Sect appearing in his place.
Even, he did not need to worry about being suddenly conscripted by the people of the One Yang Sect and forced to go to the battlefield.
Thoughts flashed through his mind.
He Song quickly selected many places that could be used to open up a Golden Core cave dwelling.
At the same time, he also had many places as alternatives for the location of his future medicine garden.
Like the medicine gardens in the Earth Sect, Pure Yin Sect, Qiong Hua Sect, and Golden Sword Sect, the twenty medicine gardens in the One Yang Sect that He Song had opened up together were also decided by He Song to be cleared.
Since he was going to build a cave dwelling in other border Immortal Prefectures, He Song naturally also needed to clear out the medicine gardens in Cloud Prefecture.
Otherwise, when harvesting spirit herbs in the future, he would probably need to run a very long way.
Such a waste of time was something He Song was unwilling to do.
And because of this, He Song decided to harvest the mature spirit herbs in these twenty medicine gardens and clear them out before leaving this place.
In this way, after building a Golden Core cave dwelling and opening up new medicine gardens in other places later, he would not need to come here again.
With such thoughts, He Song, after determining several alternative locations for his cave dwelling, quickly began to pack his things.
In this hidden cave dwelling, He Song had left behind many things.
However, when packing things up now, He Song, after thinking for a moment, ultimately did not take these things directly with him.
Instead, he left some more things behind, in this hidden cave dwelling.
This hidden cave dwelling had not been noticed by others.
A crafty rabbit has three burrows.
Perhaps, he might still have a chance to return here in the future.
Thinking of this, He Song nodded slightly, and after leaving some things behind and hiding this hidden cave dwelling again.
He Song then walked out of this hidden cave dwelling with Jade.
This time, He Song still placed a Maze Formation on Jade's body, allowing the dense fog to cover Jade's massive body.
At the same time, he also concealed his own aura, suppressing his aura to the Perfected Foundation Establishment Stage.
After doing all this, He Song stood on Jade's back, moved his mind, and let Jade carry him forward all the way.
Jade's flying speed was not fast.
But He Song's current cultivation had reached the Golden Core Stage, so he was not in a hurry to travel.
So he simply let Jade carry him all the way, heading towards the twenty medicine gardens he had opened up within the sphere of influence of the One Yang Sect.
On the way.
He Song occasionally looked around, and a huge Immortal Market appeared in the distance.
According to the map of the surrounding area in He Song's mind, this huge Immortal Market was the location of the Flying Cloud Immortal Market.
Speaking of which, Su Qian, who had been sending messages to He Song and had never stopped for so many years, lived peacefully in this Immortal Market.
It's just that Su Qian failed to successfully establish her foundation.
Presumably, after a few decades, she would be like many Qi Condensation Stage cultivators, returning to dust, returning to earth, right?
Looking at the location of the Flying Cloud Immortal Market.
He Song hesitated slightly.
In the end, he still did not let Jade stop.
He just moved his mind, and the vast Divine Sense of the Golden Core Stage suddenly surged out, enveloping the surroundings.
After sensing the location of Su Qian within the Flying Cloud Immortal Market.
He Song casually left thousands of spirit stones and a letter stating that he had come to see her in the courtyard where she lived.
As for other things, He Song did not leave much.
Although Su Qian had clearly stated long before breaking through to Foundation Establishment that she would not charge a single cent for sending messages to He Song in the future.
But for the current He Song, these thousands of spirit stones were no longer anything.
If it weren't for feeling that Su Qian's strength was not strong, and giving too much might attract disaster, He Song would not have even blinked an eye if he had given more.
With Su Qian's credit for constantly delivering messages to him for so many years, these thousands of spirit stones were what she deserved.
Although Su Qian said no, He Song could not but give them.
After doing all this, He Song withdrew his gaze and also withdrew his Divine Sense, and soon closed his eyes and rested on Jade's back.
As for Su Qian's reaction after seeing the spirit stones and letters he left behind.
He Song had no answer in his heart.
Just closing his eyes and resting, gradually drifting away on Jade's back.
——
After a long time.
Flying Cloud Immortal Market.
In Su Qian's courtyard.
Su Qian had just recovered her own spirit energy and opened the door of the quiet room.
But inexplicably noticed that something seemed to have appeared in her courtyard.
After a cautious search, Su Qian looked at the spirit stones piled up into a small mountain in the room in front of her, whose number was probably as many as thousands, and was slightly stunned.
However, after seeing a letter next to this pile of spirit stones, Su Qian's expression finally changed slightly.
Where did so many spirit stones come from?
Who left this letter?
Who was it who was so secretive?
And she hadn't even noticed?
With a trace of suspicion, and a guess in her heart, Su Qian took the letter in front of her in her hand.
As Su Qian's gaze saw the handwriting on the letter, a look of realization flashed in Su Qian's eyes.
"Qian'er thanks Senior!"
After reading the contents of the letter, Su Qian bowed deeply towards the distant sky.
She was also quite moved by He Song's actions of coming to see her when he passed by, and leaving a letter and thousands of spirit stones.
She had told He Song that she would not charge a penny for sending messages in the future.
But He Song still made a special trip to Flying Cloud Immortal Market when he passed by to send her thousands of spirit stones.
Acting like this, Su Qian naturally had a great increase in goodwill towards He Song.
At the same time, the thought of continuing to send messages to He Song until she died of old age flashed in her heart.
And thinking of dying of old age.
The light in Su Qian's eyes dimmed slightly.
Her cultivation was only Great Perfection of Qi Condensation, and she probably only had a few decades to live at most.
This little time was probably just a short moment for He Song.
But soon, a ray of light appeared in Su Qian's eyes.
Recently, in the Flying Cloud Immortal Market, she had met a girl.
That girl treated her like a family member, which she liked very much.
And it was because of this that she even had the idea of taking that girl as her disciple.
Su Qian had not married for so many years, and all of her family members had also aged.
When she died a hundred years later, when there was no one to succeed her, having a disciple to see her off would not be in vain for her trip to the world of cultivation.
Looking at the thousands of spirit stones in front of her.
A thought suddenly flashed in Su Qian's heart.
She wondered if she could take that girl as a disciple and then recommend her to Senior Chen Zhou.
If it was really possible, her disciple would be able to get on good terms with a Foundation Establishment True Person, and her future would probably be smooth sailing.
Since He Song and Su Qian met, he had always used the name Chen Zhou.
Therefore, Su Qian did not know that Senior Chen Zhou in her mouth was actually named He Song.
With this thought flashing in her mind, Su Qian put all the thousands of spirit stones in front of her, as well as the letter, into her storage pouch, and soon left her small courtyard.
She went to find that girl.
——
He Song did not know what Su Qian was thinking in her heart after seeing those spirit stones and letters.
But as time passed, He Song soon arrived at the location of the medicine garden not far from Flying Cloud Immortal Market under Jade's constant flight.
This medicine garden was not far from Flying Cloud Immortal Market, and not far from the hidden cave dwelling where He Song had been before.
Therefore, even though Jade's flying speed was as slow as a snail in He Song's eyes, they arrived very quickly.
After taking Jade into this medicine garden, He Song quickly harvested the spirit herbs inside, and turned over all the soil in the medicine garden, and finally removed the formation.
After doing all this, He Song did not let Jade carry him to another medicine garden.
It was a bit far.
He Song simply sacrificed his inferior artifact flying boat.
After enlarging the flying boat, He Song put Jade on the flying boat, and then manipulated the flying boat, carrying the huge Jade away quickly.
Moving forward all the way, He Song soon rushed to another medicine garden.
The speed of an inferior artifact flying boat was much faster than Jade's flying speed.
When rushing on the road, Jade looked at the rapidly retreating mountains and rivers beside her, and the shock in her eyes was unprecedented for He Song.
Presumably.
After realizing that her speed was indeed as slow as a snail compared to the speed of the inferior artifact flying boat, Jade also had a number in her heart.
After harvesting the already mature spirit herbs in this medicine garden and removing the formation here.
He Song soon took Jade again, and began to go southeast all the way.
The locations of these two medicine gardens were both within the sphere of influence of the One Yang Sect, so there was no need to worry about safety issues.
And because he felt that the core hinterland of the One Yang Sect was more dangerous, He Song did not dare to go to the core hinterland of the One Yang Sect at all, but only went southeast along the border area of the One Yang Sect.
Following the map, there was no danger of getting lost.
To the east of the One Yang Sect was the location of the Purple Cloud Sect.
Purple Cloud Sect.
It was a peculiar sect that only focused on cultivation and was almost deaf to external affairs.
People of the Purple Cloud Sect almost all devoted themselves to cultivation and did not care much about external affairs.
However, it was precisely because they almost all devoted themselves to cultivation that the people of the Purple Cloud Sect also had an extremely strong desire for cultivation realms.
This also led to the fact that in the area where the Purple Cloud Sect was located, almost everyone yearned for the Immortal Dao, and even mortals without spiritual roots had an almost blind worship of the Immortal Dao.
The number of Qi Condensation Stage cultivators, and even Foundation Establishment True Persons, within its territory was much larger than that of the surrounding Nascent Soul Sects.
Although it had not yet reached the point where Qi Condensation was not as good as dogs, and Foundation Establishment was everywhere, compared to the surrounding Nascent Soul Sects, the number of cultivators within its sphere of influence was probably two or thirty percent more.
In the area where the Purple Cloud Sect was located, once one possessed spiritual roots, one would almost certainly step into the Immortal Path.
