Chapter 346: Chapter 338: 5 Years Later

Translator: 549690339

For He Song,

since he had already obtained the Golden Congealing Elixir recipe, stored the Golden Elixir secret method in his brain, and prepared the Golden Spirit Fruit,

he should be able to purchase the remaining auxiliary medicinal ingredients for refining the Golden Congealing Elixir in other Immortal Cities.

As long as he becomes familiar with the Golden Congealing Elixir recipe and refines a batch of Golden Congealing Elixir,

next, all he needs is to quietly cultivate, promote his cultivation base to the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, and step onto the path of the Golden Core, advancing towards the Golden Elixir Realm.

For the two conditions needed to step onto the Golden Core Path, He Song is now fully prepared.

Under these conditions, all he needs to do is promote his cultivation base as usual.

Why would he let his plan be disrupted and allow new trouble to come to his door?

The present He Song, naturally tries to avoid trouble coming to his door.

That was why he lowered the tunneling light from time to time and proceeded with Earth Tunneling underground.

Without any surprise or danger,

He Song quickly returned to the valley where the Golden Elixir Array was

IOCdLeU.

Passing through the Golden Elixir Array,

He Song’s gaze swept across the lush spirit rice and spirit medicine growing in the valley.

But his heart suddenly moved.

Previously, he had just obtained the Golden Congealing Elixir recipe from Master Luo Jing.

In the Golden Congealing Elixir recipe, the auxiliary medicinal ingredients for refining the Golden Congealing Elixir naturally also appeared in illustrations.

Now, after returning to his cave mansion, He Song’s gaze swept over the medicine garden in the valley, only to suddenly realize,

that some of the spirit medicine planted in the valley happened to be auxiliary medicinal ingredients for refining the Golden Congealing Elixir.

And the spirit medicine planted in the valley was only a small part of the spirit medicine in his storage bag.

Many precious spirit medicines had not been planted in the valley by He Song, as they wouldn’t survive in the current spiritual Qi density of the valley.

Perhaps,

among the spirit medicines in his storage bag, there might also be auxiliary medicinal ingredients for refining the Golden Congealing Elixir.

With such an idea flashing through his mind,

He Song quickly took out many jade boxes and laid them out in a row in front of him.

In these jade boxes were all precious spirit medicine.

He took out a small portion of each type of spirit medicine from his storage bag.

He waved his hand, and the jade boxes in front of him were suddenly opened one by one, revealing the precious spirit medicine inside each box. At that very moment, He Song’s gaze swept over the jade boxes in front of him, immediately comparing the spirit medicine in each box with the auxiliary medicinal ingredients for refining the Golden Congealing Elixir in his mind.

Upon comparison, a glint suddenly flashed in He Song’s eyes.

“Good, good, it’s unexpected that all these spirit medicines from Master Yin

Yue also contain auxiliary medicinal ingredients for refining the Golden

Congealing Elixir.”

“According to the record on the Golden Congealing Elixir recipe, only a few more kinds of auxiliary medicinal ingredients need to be found in order to start refining the elixir.”

As his gaze swept over the various spirit medicines in front of him, He Song secretly rejoiced.

After taking out a portion of the auxiliary medicinal ingredients for refining the Golden Congealing Elixir for later use,

He Song quickly closed the jade boxes in front of him and collected them back into his storage bag.

Upon returning to the meditation chamber in the cave mansion,

He Song sat on the meditation cushion in his chamber.

Images of the types of auxiliary medicinal ingredients recorded in the Golden Congealing Elixir recipe quickly flashed through his mind.

After confirming that he was only a few types of spirit medicines away from refining the Golden Congealing Elixir, He Song cast these thoughts aside and began seclusive cultivation.

Time flies, years passed,

In the blink of an eye, five years had gone by as if in a flash.

During these five years, He Song continuously cultivated, and the mana in his body became increasingly thick.

With the increase in mana, his combat power naturally grew as well.

On the road from Late Foundation Establishment Stage towards Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, he had taken a big step forward.

After five years of cultivation, He Song felt that he had taken another step towards Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.

It must be said that, after so many years of body refining, He Song’s harvest in body refining had already become quite significant.

Nowadays, He Song, even without using his mana and relying only on his flesh, could move unhindered among Qi Refining stage cultivators.

Although He Song’s body shape had not changed at all, his physical strength had become extremely powerful.

A single punch, it could even be comparable to a full-strength blow from a Qi-refining late-stage cultivator.

Under such circumstances,

He Song’s own strength naturally increased even more.

Furthermore, his physical defense also steadily improved as his strength increased.

Compared to other cultivators, He Song might not be as severely injured even if he were to sustain damage.

Moreover, it is easier to recover.

In this way, he would have a stronger ability to survive in the future.

He Song was slightly surprised by his improved survivability and became more interested in body refining.

However, body refining ultimately remained a supplement, and He Song did not neglect the cultivation of his mana over the years.

This could be seen from the growth rate of his mana.

In addition to improving his own mana and body refining.

He Song’s progress in other areas was also not to be underestimated.

Five years passed.

He Song had completely understood the Golden Congealing Elixir Recipe, and he knew every spirit medicine needed like the back of his hand.

Even, besides the auxiliary medicinal ingredients that He Song hadn’t obtained yet, he had already taken out the main medicine and other auxiliary medicines many times.

Moreover, in his heart, he had already deduced it many times and became very familiar with the process of refining the Golden Congealing Elixir.

It could be said that if He Song bought the auxiliary medicinal ingredients he hadn’t obtained yet.

Then the next moment, he could directly start refining the Golden Congealing Elixir.

Also, since the difficulty of refining the Golden Congealing Elixir is not particularly high, but its spirit medicines are mostly controlled by the Nascent Soul Upper Sect, making it extremely precious.

So as long as an elixir refiner can refine Foundation Establishment elixirs for true Masters in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Then the chances of failure in refining Golden Congealing Elixir will not be too great.

What He Song lacks now.

Is just that his cultivation has not reached Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.

And a few auxiliary medicinal ingredients that he hasn’t purchased yet.

As long as He Song’s cultivation reaches Foundation Establishment Great Perfection and has a use for Golden Congealing Elixir.

Then he can naturally refine Golden Congealing Elixir.

In addition to mastering the Golden Congealing Elixir Recipe, He Song did not

neglect me sway or ms Elixir •rao.

He Song’s study on Elixir Tao was very active.

He Song has now mastered the refining methods of lower grade Foundation Establishment elixirs he knows.

And he has started to challenge the refining of middle-grade Foundation Establishment elixirs.

Although the progress doesn’t seem too significant.

But that’s only because it has only been five years.

In these five years, combined with the time he spent studying the Foundation Establishment elixir recipes, he has mastered all the lower-grade Foundation Establishment elixir recipes he knows.

And started to challenge the middle-grade Foundation Establishment elixirs, which is actually quite a fast pace.

You see, it took He Song more than thirty years to completely master all the lower-grade Foundation Establishment elixir recipes he knows since successfully refining a Foundation Establishment elixir.

To be able to master all the lower-grade Foundation Establishment elixir recipes he knows in just over thirty years is already very fast.

If it were someone else, it might take them more than ten more years to master all the lower-grade Foundation Establishment elixir recipes they know, like He Song.

Of course, other elixir refiners probably wouldn’t try to master all the lower-grade Foundation Establishment elixir recipes they know like He Song.

Other elixir refiners would generally only master three or four lower-grade Foundation Establishment elixir recipes and then start researching middle-grade Foundation Establishment elixir recipes.

Although this way of studying more advanced elixir recipes would make their progress slower and might even fail permanently, they could only do so.

After all, they didn’t have as much time as He Song.

He Song chose to master so many Foundation Establishment elixir recipes to solidify his foundations in Elixir Tao.

Once the foundations are solid, it will be very beneficial for the path of elixir refiners in the future.

The more He Song solidified his foundations.

The faster he naturally would learn other elixir recipes in the future.

There won’t be situations like ordinary elixir refiners who fail to study higher-grade recipes.

In this way, mastering some more elixir recipes at the foundation stage could actually make the path of elixir refiners smoother in the future.

So it isn’t clear who exactly is wasting time.

He Song spent more time but had solid foundations and did not encounter bottlenecks when studying higher-grade elixir recipes.

Other elixir refiners study faster but may face bottlenecks and become stuck in them when studying higher-grade elixir recipes.

Comparing like this, He Song thought that having a solid foundation was more important.

This was also the reason he spent more than thirty years studying other lower-grade Foundation Establishment elixir recipes.

Besides progressing greatly on the path of elixir refinement.

He Song has also made significant progress in artifacts refinement and amulet making.

Regarding amulet making, He Song can now only draw lower-grade Foundation Establishment spirit amulets, but he has begun trying to draw other lower-grade Foundation Establishment spirit amulets.

And the success rate is gradually rising.

As for artifacts refinement, after ten years of comprehension and hands-on creation, He Song was able to refine lower-grade Artifacts three years ago. Over these three years, after refining some lower-grade Artifacts, He Song changed his appearance and hid his cultivation, going to the nearby Immortal Pavilion to sell them.

In this way, the cost of creating Artifacts was barely compensated for.

Moreover, after becoming proficient, there was still some profit.

However, now He Song’s cultivation has reached the Qi-refining late stage, and he doesn’t seem to care much about the few spirit stones earned from selling lower- grade Artifacts.

But being able to refine Artifacts already made He Song very happy, feeling that his efforts had not been in vain.

Apart from that, He Song has also made huge progress with the Golden Elixir Array that envelops the valley outside..
