Chapter 351: Chapter 343: Changing Appearances

Translator: 549690339

After traveling tens of miles away from the Thick Earth Sect’s gate, He Song’s figure turned into a water-blue tunneling light and disappeared into the horizon.

To leave the Thick Earth Sect.

Actually, it was not what He Song wanted.

It was just the rules of the Cultivation World.

There are numerous cultivators in the Cultivation World, but very few resources.

It is impossible for a Golden Elixir force like the Thick Earth Sect to afford all Foundation Establishment Masters to step onto the Golden Core Path.

Having a Golden Elixir Master emerge every few hundred years is already a gift granted by the Sun Faction and other Nascent Soul Upper Sects.

After all, not every Golden Congealing Elixir Pill can successfully promote a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator to the Golden Elixir Realm.

Under the condition of being unable to provide enough Golden Congealing Elixir Pills.

It has become a common practice for almost all Golden Elixir forces to release cultivators who have reached the Late Foundation Establishment Stage and let them compete for opportunities with other cultivators in the outside world.

As a result, the sect can save on the annual salary of three thousand spirit stones.

It also ensures that the number of Foundation Establishment Masters within the sect remains manageable.

Anyway, as long as there is a Golden Elixir Master guarding the sect, safety is not a big concern.

To be sure, conflicts among cultivators are sometimes inevitable.

If all Foundation Establishment Masters stay within the sect, there is no telling when someone will cause trouble.

When trouble grows bigger and bigger.

How can there be peace within the sect?

Perhaps, a sect will have many factions, and these factions will struggle against each other, creating a dark and chaotic atmosphere.

In this case, those Late Foundation Establishment cultivators naturally become unstable factors that must be eliminated.

But they have been nurtured by the Thick Earth Sect and have worked hard for the sect for many years.

It is unwise to expel them directly.

Therefore, releasing these Late Foundation Establishment Masters to other places to seek opportunities has become a unanimous decision of all Golden Elixir forces.

And these released Late Foundation Establishment cultivators can only rely on their own strength to compete for various opportunities with others.

Just like the previous Master Bai Yun, Meng Guan, Wei Fan, and even Master Xuan He were all the same.

He Song is now in the same situation.

Of course.

For a loose cultivator like He Song, being released means truly being released.

Unless he returns to the Thick Earth Sect with the unrecalled Elder Token after failing to find opportunities in the future.

The Thick Earth Sect will also consider the camaraderie and allow him to live within the Thick Earth Sect’s sphere of influence.

As long as they don’t cause any trouble, the Thick Earth Sect won’t make things difficult for them.

However, there are very few loose cultivators who can live through this stage, and He Song has never seen such a case.

As for sect elites like Master Bai Yun and Master Xuan He, once they are released, they might still be recalled in case of any major events in the Thick Earth Sect.

For example, during the Righteous and Demonic Great War this time, Master Bai Yun and Master Qingyue were recalled to participate in the war.

At the same time, if the Thick Earth Sect obtains a Golden Congealing Elixir Pill, they will naturally recall them and let them compete for the Elixir Pill.

In short, whether it’s good or bad, it’ll always involve them.

Their connection with the Thick Earth Sect is much stronger than that of He Song and other loose cultivators.

There is a significant difference between loose cultivator Foundation Establishment and the sect elites.

It is precisely because of these rules that after leaving the Thick Earth Sect, He Song feels as if he is now a free man.

He Song today.

Though he can claim to be an Elder of the Thick Earth Sect.

But when he encounters other Late Foundation Establishment or Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivators outside, they can easily tell He Song’s background.

If he is invited in the future, he may join other factions.

Like the Treasure Pavilion.

If someone invites He Song to join the Treasure Pavilion now, he has the freedom to join at any time since he is no longer bound by the Thick Earth Sect.

Even.

If he manages to reach the Golden Elixir Realm, He Song may also try to enter the Sun Faction and become one of the Golden Elixir Elders.

As long as the Golden Elixir cultivator has a traceable background and is not some evil person, even the Sun Faction, a Nascent Soul Upper Sect, would still welcome them.

In short.

He Song is now a free man.

He can be a loose cultivator of the Foundation Establishment, wandering the world.

And he can join other forces at any time without being bound by the Thick Earth Sect.

After leaving the Thick Earth Sect’s gate, He Song’s figure continued to move forward. After traveling hundreds of miles, he finally landed in a secluded valley.

In the valley, He Song set up a Smoke Array and began to change his

appearance under the cover of the array.

First, he altered his face and body shape.

Then he put on an inconspicuous black robe.

He also activated his Breath Concealment Skill to suppress his cultivation base to the Foundation Establishment Early Stage.

After finishing all these things, He Song thought about it and felt that it should be enough, so he removed the Smoke Array.

Soon, He Song’s figure appeared tens of miles away from the valley, turning into a golden escape light and heading towards the distance.

White Egret Immortal City is a city governed by the Pure Yin Sect.

It is located to the west of the Thick Earth Sect’s gate and is tens of thousands of miles away from it.

He Song thought this distance should be safer than purchasing within the Thick Earth Sect’s sphere of influence.

After changing his appearance, He Song spent quite a lot of time traveling to this place.

In the White Egret Immortal City.

The disguised He Song quickly entered the Treasure Pavilion of the city and inquired about everything he needed from the Pavilion Master.

Now, He Song has completed one of the tasks he needed for the Golden Elixir Array, which is to hand over his position as the Master Guardian of Heaven Power Immortal City to Master Jing Xin.

There are two remaining tasks.

First, purchase auxiliary medicinal for the Golden Congealing Elixir Pill.

Second, purchase materials for the Array Disk and Array Banners of the Golden Elixir Array.

These items can only be found in the Treasure Pavilions of various Immortal Cities.

Being acquainted with Master Luo Jing, He Song naturally knew this.

This is also the reason why he rushed to this place after leaving the Thick Earth Sect’s gate.

The main reason for not trading with Master Luo Jing is the worry of being discovered by her.

Master Luo Jing is a golden elixir disciple, and if she suspects that He Song is attempting to refine a Golden Congealing Elixir Pill, she would naturally know that He Song must have the Golden Spirit Fruit.

How precious is the Golden Spirit Fruit? If it is truly discovered by others, even the Golden Elixir Master might personally take action against He Song.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, He Song naturally wouldn’t expose this matter.

Moreover, in order to clear his suspicion, He Song came to this place after changing his appearance and stated what he wanted to buy..
