Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 182: Chapter 182: Foundation Establishment Failure

Translator: 549690339

In such circumstances, the defense and offensive capabilities of the Sect Protection Array were naturally second to none.

When there is no threat, the Thick Earth Sect’s Sect Protection Array would not remain activated all the time.

The two Golden Elixir Masters of Thick Earth Sect didn’t pay much attention to the Sect Protection Array of the Seven Star Sect.

Forcing a Sect Protection Array requires a massive amount of resources and manpower.

Such a feat would also be practically impossible to achieve in a short span of time.

Instead, while the Seven Star Sect’s Sect Protection Array is activated, it was better to gain control over all the forces within the influence of the Seven Star Sect, turning the mountain gate of the Seven Star Sect into an isolated island.

Perhaps, when the Seven Star Sect could no longer sustain the terrifying consumption of the Sect Protection Array and would have to shut it down, they would find their forces to have been completely taken over by the Thick Earth Sect once they stepped out of their gate.

Even then, if they couldn’t find a solution, the Seven Star Sect might even risk expulsion by the two Golden Elixir Masters from the Thick Earth Sect.

By then, Master Tian Shu of the Seven Star Sect would probably be spitting blood.

Presently.

It has been three years since He Song broke through to Foundation Establishment.

This year, the Sect Protection Array of the Seven Star Sect was still active.

Meanwhile, the Foundation Establishment Masters and Golden Elixir Masters of the Thick Earth Sect were happily claiming territory within the influence of the Seven Star Sect.

Almost every Foundation Establishment Master had their pockets full of cultivation resources and various treasures.

A Sect War.

It was as dangerous as it was opportunistic.

Victory meant wealth, as the Foundation Establishment Masters of the Thick Earth Sect were currently enjoying.

Defeat would result in death, such as the fate of those Foundation Establishment Masters of the Seven Star Sect.

The reason He Song did not want to get involved in the Sect War was obviously due to concern for his own safety.

He would rather not acquire an opportunity this way.

Nor was he inclined to take part in a Sect War with such a high-risk factor.

At the same time.

Knowing that the two Golden Elixir Masters from within his sect had blatantly attacked all the way to the foot of the Seven Star Sect’s mountain gate, He Song did not rush back to his sect.

Instead, after getting this news, he further accelerated his practice with the Arrow God Thorn.

But just three years after He Song’s Foundation Establishment, while he was practicing the Arrow God Thorn.

The Sound Transmission Amulet in front of him started to glow again.

Upon seeing this, He Song quickly stopped his practice of the Arrow God Thorn and picked up the Sound Transmission Amulet.

Taking a thin piece of paper from the amulet, he glanced over it.

“Mr. He, Shuangshuang failed to establish her foundation two years ago, but she has recovered from her injuries and is about to be assigned elsewhere.”

“Before leaving, she remembered the gift you gave in Green Wall Immortal City and asked to meet you one last time to show her gratitude.”

“Ping’er.”

Reading the lines on the paper, He Song raised an eyebrow.

Ping’er’s older sister?

Chu Shuangshuang?

Chu Shuangshuang’s Establishment Foundation failed?

With a distant look in his eyes, He Song looked towards the direction of the Thick Earth Sect’s mountain gate and sighed softly.

Thinking back when.

When he had just arrived in this world.

He met his new friends, Meng Guan and Wei Fan.

Right after that, he met Ping’er on their way to the Spirit Skill Pavilion in the Immortal Pavilion.

From that time on, Ping’er was already acquainted with Chu Shuangshuang.

Later with Chu Shuangshuang’s help, Ping’er successfully became a disciple of Master Qingyue.

Thus, Ping’er’s status changed from a minor cultivator of the Immortal Pavilion to a disciple of a True Master in the Thick Earth Sect.

This status change was undoubtedly huge.

And by a stroke of luck, he also got acquainted with Chu Shuangshuang.

Although their relationship wasn’t close and there were no romantic feelings involved, they could still be considered acquaintances.

Now Chu Shuangshuang had failed in her Foundation Establishment, had recovered from her injuries, and was going to be assigned elsewhere. It was unlikely they would meet again.

Before she left, Chu Shuangshuang remembered that he once gifted her and both Ping’er and Master Qingyue, thus wanting to thank him in person seemed reasonable.

However…

He glanced over the quiet room he was in.

A helpless look flashed through He Song’s face.

Now, he himself had already established his foundation.

If he were to return to the sect now, his presence would immediately be detected by the Foundation Establishment Masters in the sect.

The appearance of a new Foundation Establishment Master would undeniably attract a lot of attention.

And what’s more, going to see someone who’s just failed in their Foundation Establishment, as a newly appointed Foundation Establishment Master… isn’t that a bit too cruel?

Of course, the most important thing was that if he returned to the sect now, it would clash with He Song’s plan.

According to his plan,

He needed to return to the sect a few days, or perhaps half a month, before his sixtieth birthday.

That way, he could give others the illusion that his Foundation Establishment was a mere stroke of luck.

As such, he would be seen as just another average cultivator who managed to establish his foundation by luck.

Not as someone who shone brilliantly right from the start.

Only then could He Song blend in within the Thick Earth Sect, steadily increasing his strength inconspicuously.

Consequently,

Since Chu Shuangshuang has now recovered from her failed Foundation Establishment and is about to be stationed elsewhere, her wish to meet him one last time seems unlikelv to come true.

This matter may not be viable.

He shook his head.

He Song casually took out a thin piece of paper, let his spiritual power flow from his fingertips, leaving lines of characters on the paper.

“Unfortunately, I failed in my attempt to build my foundation a year ago, and I am now healing in a secluded place, unable to return to the sect to see Sister Shuangshuang.”

“I am now fifty-nine, and if I cannot breakthrough the Foundation

Establishment before sixty, I’m afraid there’s no hope for me in this lifetime.”

“I believe Sister Shuangshuang will understand that whether I succeed in building a foundation or not this time, I will personally visit her.”

“I hope Ping’er will speak a few kind words for me.”

“He Song.”

After doing all this, He Song put the paper into the Sound Transmission Amulet, as his spiritual power was released, the paper disappeared instantly.

Seeing this situation, He Song sighed, feeling the irony of fate.

Chu Shuangshuang.

As Ping’er and He Song chatted casually.

She only had the talent of a four spirits root.

The reason she was able to become a disciple of Master Qingyue was that she was related to her.

So she was able to enter the Thick Earth Sect and become a disciple of a master.

The pity is…

Despite all this, because of her own limitations and bad luck, she ultimately failed to cross the difficult road of Foundation Establishment.

Even as a disciple of Thick Earth Sect, the first disciple of a Foundation Establishment master, she ended up like this.

This shows how difficult Foundation Establishment is.

It’s as hard as scaling the heavens.

For ordinary Loose cultivators, the road to Foundation Establishment is much more difficult than for disciples of the sect.

Sect’s disciples consider building foundations must be fully prepared, and there is still a high chance of failure.

For Ordinary Loose cultivators, even if they have made what they consider to be full preparation, their success rate is incomparable to a sect’s disciples.

Sect’s disciples have Foundation Establishment Elixirs and teachings on Foundation Establishment.

What do Loose cultivators have?

With this in mind, He Song couldn’t help but sigh, Meng Guan is indeed lucky.

After replying to Ping’er’s letter.

Images of his acquaintance with Chu Shuangshuang flashed through He Song’s mind, making him feel extremely depressed.

He knew that such things would inevitably occur frequently in the future.

He should get used to it.

But the more he thought about it, the more obvious the frustration in his heart became.

Out of helplessness…

He Song opened the door of his meditation room, went outside the cave mansion to enjoy the scenery and clear his mind.

At least, he should dispel his gloom before he trains with the Arrow God Thorn.

Moreover, it also allowed him to gradually get used to the feeling of familiar faces gradually being left behind, while he would keep moving forward.

As an everlasting being…

He Song was bound to face such situations in the future.

It is better to face it directly than to avoid it. Having experienced a lot, his immunity to such things would naturally be higher.

Perhaps in the future, when such things happen again, He Song will remain calm, with only a sigh in his heart.

However…

Just as He Song came out of his meditation and was about to clear his mind…

The moment he stepped out of the meditation room, he saw two sound-transmitting paper cranes appearing in front of him.

He Song had been in seclusive cultivation for a while, and when people wanted to find him, they mainly communicated via Sound Transmission Amulet, so He Song had not seen sound-transmitting paper cranes for quite some time.

Seeing two sound -transmitting paper cranes outside his meditation room, He Song was taken aback for a moment, then he released his aura and took the two pieces of thin paper.

“How have you been doing recently, my friend? I unfortunately failed in my

Foundation Establishment but survived thanks to a Vein Protection Elixir.”

“I no longer wish to stay in Green Wall Immortal City.”

“Years have been wasted, and all for naught in the end.”

“Now that I’m over sixty, it’s time for me to find a spouse, have a child or two to pass on my mantle.”

“If you need me in the future, you can find me at the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.”

“We both started our Immortal Path from here, it’s hard to forget.”

“I am here, waiting for your visit.”

“Lin Cong.”

After scanning the writing on the paper, He Song’s gaze lingered on the name Lin Cong for a long time.

If his memory served him…

Decades ago, when he first came to this world, his first neighbor was Lin Cong, wasn’t it?

Lin Cong back then…

Brimming with youthful vigor.

Built like a tank.

His eyes carried a killing intent.

Bulky muscles all over his body.

He exuded a fierce aura.

Added to this, his cultivation was much higher than He Song’s at that time, his spiritual pressure was quite intimidating.

The impression Lin Cong made on He Song when they first met was deep and lasting.

But after the great disaster at the Immortal Pavilion, Lin Cong left at He Song’s suggestion and went to the Green Wall Immortal City to settle down.

It wasn’t until He Song joined the Thick Earth Sect and went to deliver gifts on behalf of Master Qingyue at the Green Wall Immortal City that they met again..
