Anyway, he had plenty of time.

After the Foundation Establishment.

There was no longer the need to break through to Foundation Establishment before the age of sixty, as was the case during the Qi Refining stage.

Average cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Realm have a lifespan of around two hundred years.

After consuming a large number of Longevity Elixirs or heavenly materials, their lifespan could extend up to around three hundred years.

If they have a strong destiny and find some precious spirit medicine, their lifespan might increase a bit more.

However, it should never exceed three hundred and fifty years.

In Foundation Establishment Realm, three hundred and fifty years is a bottleneck.

After all, even for cultivators who reach the Golden Elixir Realm, their lifespan is merely five hundred years.

While they can also consume Longevity Elixirs and heavenly materials for longevity, there is still a gap between the three hundred and fifty years in the Foundation Establishment Realm and the five hundred years in the Golden Elixir Realm.

Even so.

In the Foundation Establishment Realm, there are none of the restraints of needing to break through before sixty, as there are in the Qi Refining stage.

Upon achieving Foundation Establishment.

He had already set foot on the Immortal Path.

On the Immortal Path, a cultivator’s body will always be at its peak status and could break through the realm when their lifespan is near its end.

Even if a cultivator has never consumed any Longevity Elixirs or heavenly materials and their lifespan is only two hundred years.

They could still attempt to break through to the Golden Elixir Realm when they are one hundred and ninety-nine years old. Without any risk of decreased success rate.

Under such circumstances.

He Song had all the time in the world.

As an everlasting being, He Song.

He doesn’t even need to consider any limitations of time.

As long as he wanted, someday, all these Foundation Establishment cultivation skills would be his!

With this thought flashing through his mind, He Song picked up the jade slip and began to descend the stairs.

The quiet room on the first floor of the Book Collection Pavilion was the place where he would receive all the cultivation skills contained within these jade slips.

Soon.

Under the respectful gaze of Yang Yan, He Song walked into the quiet room with several jade slips.

In the quiet room, He Song took one jade slip after another in his hands and let his divine sense explore them, then accepted all of the Foundation Establishment cultivation skills from these jade slips.

“Thick Earth Formulas” for establishing foundation.

“Earth Dragon Skill”, “Dust Robe Skill”, “Thick Earth Seal”, “Melting Fire Shield”, “Phantom Earth Tunneling Skill”.

After recording all of the Foundation Establishment cultivation skills in his mind, He Song opened the door of the quiet room and handed them over to

Yang Yan.

These six Foundation Establishment cultivation skills.

Each one required contribution points for exchange.

The price was not expensive either.

The full version of “Thick Earth Formulas” for establishing foundation only required one contribution point.

As for the other five Foundation Establishment cultivation skills, all except for Thick Earth Seal, required ten contribution points.

The Thick Earth Seal was the most expensive, requiring twenty contribution points.

Thus.

Together, the contribution points needed to exchange these Foundation Establishment cultivation skills was sixty-one.

Using the conversion of one contribution point for one hundred and fifty spirit stones.

The Foundation Establishment cultivation skills that He Song exchanged for required a total of nine thousand one hundred and fifty spirit stones.

After handing over all the cultivation skills, the two hundred contribution points bestowed by Master Fa Xuan on He Song’s elder token was reduced to only one hundred and thirty-nine.

The spending of nearly ten thousand spirit stones made He Song somewhat astonished.

Indeed.

After Foundation Establishment, the annual salary was much higher than during the Qi Refining stage.

But the expenses after Foundation Establishment were by no means comparable to those of the Qi Refining stage.

If it hadn’t been for the two hundred contribution points given by Master Fa Xuan, He was afraid it would have cost almost ten thousand spirit stones to exchange for these Foundation Establishment cultivation skills.

If relying on the annual salary.

It would probably take a regular Foundation Establishment Master several years to save up nearly ten thousand spirit stones like He Song did.

After exchanging for his selected Foundation Establishment cultivation skills, He Song turned around and left.

At the same time in his mind.

He had a clear understanding of the two hundred contribution points bestowed by Master Fa Xuan.

These two hundred contribution points, if carefully calculated, were probably enough to enable a Foundation Establishment Master to quickly gain combat power within ten years.

These two hundred points were worth a full thirty thousand spirit stones.

Such a great gift.

Only a Golden Elixir Master could afford to give it away.

Even now, when He Song owns over a hundred acres of spirit fields as well as a yearly salary of three thousand spirit stones – with a total annual income of over ten thousand spirit stones – he simply can’t afford to give away a gift of thirty thousand spirit stones like Master Fa Xuan can.

With thirty thousand spirit stones.

Even with He Song’s wealth, it would take him two years to save up enough.

He definitely would not give away all the income of two years to others.

Looking towards the main peak where the Thick Earth Sect resided, He Song couldn’t help but sigh.

“Master Fa Xuan is really an interesting man, his skill in winning over people is perfect.”

“Using a Golden Elixir Master’s body to win people over, others might be moved to tears. No wonder he was able to compete against Master Yan Shan.”

“Unfortunately, no matter how much he tries to win people over, when there is danger, I would still run first.”

He shook his head, keeping his inner thoughts hidden.

He Song quickly returned to his own courtyard.

Next.

It was time to practice the new Foundation Establishment cultivation skills he obtained.

In the quiet room.

He Song recalled carefully in his mind and quickly retrieved all the information about the “Thick Earth Formulas” built for the Foundation Establishment.

The first step, undoubtedly, was to switch cultivation skills.

He Song now replaced the Qi Refining stage of the Thick Earth Formulas with the “Thick Earth Formulas” Foundation Establishment chapter.

Only in this way could He Song’s cultivation speed catch up with other Foundation Establishment Masters.

It should be known.

Over the past four years, He Song has been enduring the slow crawling pace of the Qi Refining stage Thick Earth Formulas.

Now that he had the “Thick Earth Formulas” Foundation Establishment chapter in hand, naturally He Song was not going to endure any longer. He immediately began to change his cultivation skills.

Until several days later.

A member of the Artifact Refining Hall delivered a token to the outside of He Song’s courtyard.

This was the token for He Song’s newly opened cave mansion.

At that time, He Song was immersed in changing the “Thick Earth Formulas” Foundation Establishment chapter, so he did not come out.

He just sent out his divine sense to dismiss the other party, then used his divine sense to wrap the token and put it in his top-rank storage bag.

He planned to move after changing his cultivation skill to the “Thick Earth Formulas” Foundation Establishment chapter.

Like this.

Several days passed again.

He Song finally changed the cultivation skill circulating in his body from the original Qi Refining stage Thick Earth Formulas to the “Thick Earth Formulas” Foundation Establishment chapter.

In this way, He Song’s absorption speed of spirit Qi from the outside world, as well as the speed of transforming spirit Qi into mana, finally caught up with other Foundation Establishment Masters.

After changing his cultivation skill, if He Song secluded himself again, he would not be as slow as a turtle’s crawl like those past four years. His cultivation speed, after the change, would experience a huge increase.

So in the future, when secluded.

The increase rate of mana in his body would also greatly increase.

After He Song successfully changed his cultivation skill, he also came out of his seclusion.

Carrying the cave mansion token sent by a disciple of the Artifact Refining Hall a few days ago, He Song left the small courtyard where he had lived for over a decade.

He arrived at a mountain.

Next to the cave mansions of Meng Guan and Wei Fan.

He Song stopped.

This place.

Originally it was just a forest.

Although the landscape was quite pleasant, it was rarely trod by people.

However, because Meng Guan chose this place as his cave mansion after Foundation Establishment.

This place had a bit more human activity.

But very quickly, after Wei Fan reached Foundation Establishment, he also opened his cave mansion here.

The two cave mansions side by side like this brought more human activity to the area.

World events are unpredictable.

A few years ago, when Meng Guan and Wei Fan left one after another, the two cave mansions here became deserted.

Until a few days ago.

He Song also chose his cave mansion here, standing side by side with the cave mansions of his two good friends. Only then did this place regain its vitality.

Today.

When He Song arrived.

Seeing his cave mansion standing in line with Meng Guan and Wei Fan’s cave mansions, he felt a sense of satisfaction flash in his eyes.

The three cave mansions arranged in a row were quite to He Song’s liking.

Although at this moment, apart from He Song’s newly opened cave mansion showing a bit of human activity, the other two cave mansions seemed to have been deserted for a long time.

But He Song didn’t care too much.

Opening the cave mansion here was indeed to show off their friendship.

But the main reason is that the two were not in the sect at the moment, so there would be no one to disturb him.

When the two return.

He, besides occasionally staying here, should spend most of his time in the cave mansion he opened outside.

In this way, he didn’t need to worry about being disturbed by the two.

Doing so, he could cultivate without being disturbed and also show off the relationship among the three to the outside world.

It was simply killing two birds with one stone.

After casting a glance over Meng Guan and Wei Fan’s cave mansions, He Song immediately entered his own cave mansion.

The cave mansions that the Thick Earth Sect arranged for Foundation Establishment Masters were very interesting.

Apart from various rooms and furnishings, two array setups were also arranged.

The first one is a Spirit-Gathering Array.

After checking it out, He song showed a disgusted expression on his face.

This Spirit-Gathering Array was still a Miniature Spirit Gathering Array.

Not the small Spirit-Gathering Array that He Song had been using.

However, because the Thick Earth Sect’s mountain gate was much richer in spirit Qi than the outside world, the concentration of spirit Qi in this cave mansion was still quite good.

Compared with He Song’s original small courtyard, the concentration of spirit Qi here was much stronger.

But it still couldn’t catch up with the cave mansion that He Song opened outside.

Other than the Miniature Spirit-Gathering Array, He Song’s cave mansion also had a Concealing Protection Array.

After a brief contemplation, He Song found the name of this array in the Array Tao Primary Introduction.

Purple Cloud Heavenly Array.

As the name implies, after this array is activated, purple clouds envelop the array, making it effective for keeping divine sense explorations at bay.

At the same time, within the purple clouds, there are protective arrays that can resist attacks from outside the array.

This is an array that has both concealment and protection.

Of course.

Because it has two functions, this implies that the two functions of the array are quite mediocre.

Both concealment and protection cannot match arrays specialized in one aspect.

For example, the concealment ability of the Purple Cloud Heavenly Array can’t match the Smoke Array set up by He Song.

The protective capability of the Purple Cloud Heavenly Array can’t match other arrays specialized in defense..
