Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 274 - 274: 266: Being Cautious Helps to Sail the Ship for Ten Thousand Years

Soon, the tunneling light He Song transformed into left Jade Immortal City’s jurisdiction and returned to Heaven Power Immortal City’s jurisdiction.

However, even when he returned to the Heaven Power Immortal City’s jurisdiction and arrived at his own territory, He Song was still extremely cautious just like before.

Although this was the heartland of the Thick Earth Sect, it’s always better to be careful.

It’s better to be cautious.

Moreover, He Song was continuously adjusting his flight direction while moving forward.

On this return trip, he didn’t want to go directly back to Heaven Power Immortal City but wanted to visit Mountain Immortal City once.

Mountain Immortal City bordered Heaven Power Immortal City.

Its distance from Heaven Power Immortal City was neither far nor near. And it was also located in the heartland of the Thick Earth Sect, ensuring safety.

He Song had just collected a large amount of spirit medicine, which was the main medicine for refining various elixirs.

However, the refinement of elixirs wouldn’t work with just the main medicine.

Auxiliary medicinal ingredients needed to be added in order to refine the elixirs.

In such circumstances, He Song naturally needed to go to other places to buy the auxiliary medicinal ingredients needed for the refinement of various elixirs.

Only when he collected all the main and auxiliary medicines, could He Song begin the elixir refinement in the furnace and attempt to refine Foundation Establishment Spirit Elixirs.

But if he were to directly buy the auxiliary medicines in Heaven Power Immortal City, it might arouse suspicion.

Therefore, He Song had to resort to this solution: after harvesting the spirit medicines, he went to Mountain Immortal City to purchase auxiliary medicines and then returned to Heaven Power Immortal City.

In this way, He Song spent most of his time in the Thick Earth Sect’s territory, ensuring his security.

This was the safest path and the most cautious one as well.

Although the journey was longer, He Song didn’t mind it much.

Going all the way.

He Song quickly passed through the jurisdiction of Heaven Power Immortal City and entered the jurisdiction of Mountain Immortal City.

Tens of miles outside Mountain Immortal City.

An aqua blue escape light descended from the sky and quickly fell into a valley.

Once he confirmed that there were no abnormalities in Mountain Immortal City from the valley tens of miles away, He Song then put on a black robe and changed his appearance and body shape.

He also suppressed his breathing to the Qi-refining late stage.

Only then did he leisurely walk out of the valley, heading towards Mountain Immortal City tens of miles away.

Soon, He Song entered the city.

Buying the auxiliary medicines didn’t cost too many spirit stones.

Even though the elixirs He Song needed to refine were quite numerous and varied.

But after buying one kind of auxiliary medicine each time, He Song would go to the inn to change his appearance and then go out to purchase again.

Therefore, while He Song was continuously purchasing various auxiliary medicines and shuttling between various shops, no one seemed to be following him.

Perhaps someone was following him.

But He Song was very cautious, changing his appearance after buying each kind of auxiliary medicine, and thus throwing off the tail.

In this way, by the time He Song changed his appearance several times and bought all the auxiliary medicines he needed, he didn’t find anyone following him.

However, even so.

After purchasing the last kind of auxiliary medicine, He Song still went into an inn and changed his appearance before walking out.

It’s not that he was afraid of the Qi Refining stage cultivators trailing him.

It’s just that he was naturally cautious, and from very early on, he had developed such a habit.

That’s why, even though his cultivation had now reached the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

He wasn’t arrogant toward some Qi Refining stage cultivators and could easily take their lives, but He Song never became arrogant.

Caution is the ship of a million years.

What if a Foundation Establishment Clan was standing behind those Qi Refiner cultivators?

What if after hitting the younger ones, the older ones come?

What if…

With such thoughts, He Song was extremely cautious when going outside.

After changing his appearance,

He Song left Mountain Immortal City.

Once he was tens of miles away from Mountain Immortal City, He Song then restored his cultivation level to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment and transformed into an aqua blue escape light, heading toward Heaven Power Immortal City.

Soon, outside Heaven Power Immortal City, an escape light descended from the sky, directly falling into He Song’s residence.

As the escape light dissipated, He Song’s figure appeared as well.

It wasn’t until He Song returned to Heaven Power Immortal City and settled in his residence that he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and a weight was lifted from his heart.

Fortunately,

During his departure from Heaven Power Immortal City, he didn’t encounter any crisis or unexpected incidents.

Moreover, he had harvested the spirit medicines he had planted ten years ago.

And purchased many auxiliary medicines for refining elixirs.

In this way, He Song’s goals for leaving Heaven Power Immortal City were all achieved.

Next,

It was time to start trying to refine Foundation Establishment Spirit Elixirs and make great progress in his Elixir Refinement Skill.

With such thoughts flashing through his mind, He Song quickly entered his Elixir Refinement Room.

In the Elixir Refinement Room.

A high-quality Artifact elixir furnace was already quietly placed inside.

He Song bought this high-quality Artifact elixir furnace a few years ago when he first attempted to refine Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.

It was called the Sunflame Furnace.

The whole structure was made from Sunflame Copper, which had excellent heat conduction properties and many other uses.

The Sunflame Furnace cost He Song tens of thousands of spirit stones and was very precious.

Back then, He Song was trying to refine Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs and did not skimp on the necessary materials.

A high-quality Artifact elixir furnace required for refining the Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.

The various spirit medicines and auxiliary medicines required for refining Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.

The environment required for refining Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.

And everything else required for refining Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs were all created by He Song.

This Elixir Refinement Room he was in now was specifically designed and built for the purpose of refining Foundation Establishment elixirs.

However, He Song’s elixir refinement skill at that time was not as profound as it is now.

This Elixir Refinement Room he had built naturally lost much of its usefulness after his failed attempt at refining Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.

The usual elixir refinement process did not require all the special arrangements made for refining Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.

It could be said that most of the things in the Elixir Refinement Room were unnecessary if not used for refining Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.

Only when trying to refine Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs would this Elixir Refinement Room genuinely become useful.

Like now.

Stepping into the Elixir Refinement Room, He Song waved his hand, and several jade boxes appeared before him.

Naturally, he would start with the simplest one when attempting to refine Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.

Earth Spirit Elixir.

Made from Earth Spirit Ginseng as the main medicine and assisted by many other spirit medicines.

It could increase the cultivation of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators.

The higher the affinity for the earth attribute, the more mana would increase after taking it.

He Song possessed four kinds of Spirit Roots: gold, wood, fire, and earth, with the latter having the best affinity.

Therefore, after reaching Foundation Establishment, He Song mainly took Earth Spirit Elixirs.

As for cultivators with higher affinity to other spirit roots, the elixirs they took were naturally different.

However, they did not have He Song’s means to become an elixir refinement master, let alone prepare to attempt refining Earth Spirit Elixirs now.

As an elixir for improving the realm of cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage, the difficulty of refining Earth Spirit Elixirs was relatively low among Foundation Establishment spirit elixirs.

He Song had worked hard to study and understand the Elixir Tao and had a clear understanding of the difficulty levels of refining various elixirs.

Naturally, once he knew that the refining difficulty of Earth Spirit Elixir was relatively low, and he already had the elixir recipe, it was only logical to choose it as the breakthrough point.

Seated in the Elixir Refinement Room.

He Song looked focused.

In his mind, he kept going through various matters to pay attention to when refining the Earth Spirit Elixir.

At the same time, the spirit medicines required for refining Earth Spirit Elixirs were selected one by one by He Song and placed within easy reach of himself.

After doing all this, He Song looked at the high-quality Artifact elixir furnace in front of him.

A flash of brilliance appeared in his eyes.

Next up.

It was time to try refining the Earth Spirit Elixir.

Hope it succeeds!

After giving himself a pep talk, He Song waved his hand.

Suddenly, a strand of spirit fire ignited beneath the Sunflame Furnace, making the surrounding air rapidly heat up.

At the same time, a scorching aura circulated above the Sunflame Furnace, quickly rendering the entire elixir furnace a glowing red.

It even illuminated the entire Elixir Refinement Room as if it was on fire.

However, seeing this scene, He Song’s face did not show any surprise. Instead, he remained composed.

The reason the Sunflame Furnace was called so was that it would turn red all over when heated, just like a scorching sun.

Yet this color change was not due to the low melting point of its casting materials, but simply because of their unique nature.

The Sunflame Copper used to make the Sunflame Furnace was just like that.

Moreover, the color change did not reduce the elixir’s quality.

On the contrary, it would slightly increase the elixir formation rate.

Only when it turned completely red like now would the Sunflame Furnace genuinely be effective.

With the Sunflame Furnace in full effect, He Sonz beckoned with his hand, and

the jade boxes beside him opened without any wind.

Various medicines were manipulated by He Song’s divine sense, falling into the Sunflame Furnace at the appropriate times like swallows returning to their nests.

As a burst of medicinal fragrance came out, He Song’s expression remained unchanged, but his eyes held a hint of heaviness.

Now that the spirit medicines were in place, it was time to burn away the impurities inside and fuse the pure medicine liquid together when its medicinal effects were most potent.

When the medicine liquid merged to create an effect where one plus one was greater than two, substantially increasing its medicinal effects, it would then be complemented by the Congealing Elixir Skill.

When the elixir lining the elixir furnace solidified and broke out, it would be the moment the elixir was completed.

However, the real difficulty of elixir refining lies in this part.

Burning away impurities before and searching for the timing when the medicinal effects were most potent was not too difficult.

What was challenging was fusing the medicine liquid and stimulating its best medicinal power to increase its medicinal effects significantly.

This required the elixir refiner to have enough carefulness, observation power, and other qualities.

Only then can one grasp the fleeting opportunity and refine a perfect elixir in just a split second.

If not practiced for an extremely long time, the success rate would likely be terrible..
