Chapter 291: Chapter 283: A Good Friend ‘s Dying Moments

Translator: 549690339

After eight years, He Song could skillfully refine detoxification elixirs besides already mastering the art of producing Great Spirit Elixirs.

Now, he is even focusing his attention on the Spirit Guardian Elixir.

The Spirit Guardian Elixir is a type of elixir made by using the Spirit Guardian Fruit as the main medicine and a variety of precious spirit medicines as supplementary ingredients.

It serves to strengthen a cultivator’s divine sense.

As a transmigrator, He Song’s divine sense is much stronger compared to other cultivators.

Hence, this elixir that can enhance divine sense is a perfect fit for He Song. With a stronger divine sense, the power of his divine sense secret methods will naturally be greater.

He Song’s divine sense is already much stronger than other cultivators. With the added strength provided by the Spirit Guardian Elixir, it would be even more terrifying when unleashing divine sense secret methods.

Moreover, He Song had already learned a divine sense attack skill called Arrow God Thorn as a trump card when he first achieved Foundation Establishment.

With his already powerful divine sense plus the enhancement from the Spirit

Guardian Elixir,

when he uses the Arrow God Thorn, its power might cause significant damage to cultivators of the same realm.

By that time, He Song’s safety when going out would be greatly increased.

However, the Spirit Guardian Fruit needed for refining the Spirit Guardian

Elixir, takes a full twenty years to mature.

Therefore, until now, He Song has only harvested it once.

There aren’t many Spirit Guardian Fruits available for refining the Spirit Guardian Elixir, and the price is quite expensive as well.

That’s why He Song chose to master the refining process of several other elixirs first before trying to refine the Spirit Guardian Elixir.

Currently, He Song is trying to refine the Spirit Guardian Elixir while constantly consuming it to make his divine sense stronger.

Apart from refining the Spirit Guardian Elixir,

compared to eight years ago, He Song has made tremendous progress in his cultivation.

The mana within his body is now extremely full, seeming to be on the verge of breaking through from Mid -stage Foundation Establishment to Late Foundation Establishment.

However, when He Song’s mana was filled to the brim, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten about an important factor concerning his breakthrough to Late Foundation Establishment – the bottleneck.

When it came to the bottleneck, He Song had experienced it when breaking through from the Qi-refining mid stage to the Qi-refining late stage.

But that bottleneck didn’t hinder him for long.

Subsequently breaking through to Foundation Establishment Early Stage, there was no bottleneck.

Breaking through to Foundation Establishment Mid Stage, there was still no bottleneck.

But now his cultivation had reached the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and he was only one step away from breaking through to the Late Foundation Establishment stage.

He encountered a bottleneck.

His previous estimation wasn’t wrong.

Indeed, within ten years, he had reached the critical point for mana to break through to the Late Foundation Establishment stage. To be precise, it actually only took him eight years.

Eights years later, which is the present day,

If it hadn’t been for the bottleneck, He Song would’ve already successfully reached the Late Foundation Establishment stage by now.

However, it’s precisely because of the bottleneck’s existence that He Song’s cultivation progress has halted at the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment. As for when he would achieve Late Foundation Establishment, no one knows how long it would take.

Fortunately, He Song immediately began to challenge the bottleneck after encountering it.

As He Song continually assailed the bottleneck, it started to gradually loosen up in front of him.

Perhaps it’s because the bottleneck from the Mid-stage Foundation

Establishment to Late Foundation Establishment is not strong.

Or perhaps it’s because He Song himself is too powerful, and his attempts to break through the bottleneck are too intense.

Or perhaps…

As He Song relentlessly attacked the bottleneck, he could clearly feel that it was becoming increasingly vulnerable.

However, completely breaking through the bottleneck is not that easy.

According to He Song’s estimation, it should take another year, or at most two years, to completely break through the bottleneck.

After breaking through the bottleneck, He Song’s cultivation would naturally advance to the Late Foundation Establishment stage.

By that time, it would still be less than ten years.

In other words,

his initial assumption of breaking through to the Late Foundation Establishment stage within ten years wasn’t just an empty boast.

If it weren’t for the bottleneck in his cultivation progress, he might have already become a Late Foundation Establishment cultivator by now.

“Fortunately, this bottleneck is not too strong. One year is not too long.”

“The bottleneck between Mid-stage Foundation Establishment and Late

Foundation Establishment is not too formidable.”

“After cultivating steadily for another year or so, I should break through to the Late Foundation Establishment stage.”

Upon halting his attempt to break through the bottleneck, He Song sensed the surging mana within his body and made an estimate in his heart. He Song was already very satisfied with this timeframe.

You should Imow,

The notion of a bottleneck is terrifying to many people.

Once they encounter a bottleneck, a lot of cultivators may never be able to surpass it in their entire life and would ultimately remain stuck at their current realm.

That’s why many cultivators would rather go back to the mortal world and lead a carefree life as a wealthy person instead of remaining in the Cultivation

World.

If there’s no hope for further advancement, why struggle like other cultivators and live such a perilous life?

Is the life in the mortal world not interesting?

Or is being a prominent mortal figure not comfortable?

Back then, when Meng Guan was at the Qi-refining mid stage, he was stuck at the bottleneck for many years.

Without the chance encounter he had, Meng Guan might have been eternally stuck at the Qi Refining stage, having no chance of ever reaching Foundation Establishment.

At that time, Meng Guan became completely dispirited,

Even though he was in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, there was a feeling of decline all around him.

This was also the reason why he initially disguised himself as an old man.

Presumably, if there were no subsequent hopes, Meng Guan might have also chosen to go to the mortal world after spending a long time in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, right?

The horror of the bottleneck flashed through He Song’s mind, and his heart was relieved of the bottleneck he encountered this time.

The bottleneck he encountered was not that bad.

At least it hadn’t reached the level of strength where, no matter how he tried to break through, he couldn’t make any progress.

Although breaking through the bottleneck by force required about a year’s time.

But this time was much shorter compared to the cultivators who were stuck in the bottleneck for a lifetime.

Moreover, this one year period, along with the previous eight years, was still within ten years.

As he had speculated before.

The idea of successfully breaking through the Late Foundation Establishment Stage within ten years was not wrong.

It was just that there were some minor twists and turns in the process.

But it was no harm done.

He got up.

He came out of the quiet room.

A small jade bottle appeared in He Song’s hand.

He poured a Spirit Guardian Elixir from the jade bottle and swallowed it in one gulp.

The Spirit Guardian Elixir quickly transformed into a warm current, and its gentle medicinal power surged toward He Song’s Mud Palace Pellet.

Immediately, He Song felt that his divine sense had grown a little.

As the medicinal power continued, He Song’s divine sense kept growing.

After sensing that his divine sense was gradually becoming stronger, He Song was satisfied, putting away the jade bottle in his hand and placing it into his storage bag.

The Spirit Guardian Elixir was precious.

Ordinary Foundation Establishment Masters didn’t have a place to buy it.

The reason why He Song had planted Spirit Guardian Fruit before was because of this.

Now, He Song had already been able to refine the Spirit Guardian Elixir, so he could finally taste it.

Though He Song’s current success rate in refining the Spirit Guardian Elixir wasn’t very high, it was enough to satisfy his own needs.

Maybe when his success rate improves in the future, the extra Spirit Guardian Elixirs could be sold for a huge amount of spirit stones.

He allowed the power of the Spirit Guardian Elixir to continuously strengthen his divine sense.

While feeling his divine sense gradually growing, He Song also set out on his

way to the Elixir Refinement Room.

By now, He Song had become used to performing elixir refinement after taking a Spirit Guardian Elixir.

After taking the Spirit Guardian Elixir, its power would continuously strengthen He Song’s divine sense.

At this time, his divine sense was most active.

Naturally, his success rate in refining elixirs would also increase slightly at this time.

However,

Before He Song could reach the Elixir Refinement Room, a sound-transmitting paper crane flew over from the horizon and landed directly in front of He Song.

Seeing this, He Song’s heart moved.

He immediately thought of Su Qian’s figure.

Could it be that something major had happened in Cloud State, and Su Qian contacted him at this time?

With this thought in mind, He Song released a breath of his own, and held the sound -transmitting paper crane in his hand.

As he unfolded the thin paper, He Song’s gaze fell upon the words on the paper.

“He Song, my dear fellow Daoist, I am addressing you personally.”

“Ever since our last parting, I have returned to Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion to enjoy my twilight years. I’m uncertain of your present whereabouts.”

“In the blink of an eye, several decades have passed since the day we parted ways in Green Wall Immortal City.”

“Now, I am already old and frail. Although I have many descendants, none of them possess a spirit root.”

“It seems that in some time, I will be moving away and settling my family in the mortal world.”

“Having not seen you in decades, I miss you dearly. Sadly, I am now old and my body is weak, and I don’t know where you are.”

“I wonder if it’s convenient for you, as I would like to invite you to my home for a reunion.”

“Is it alright?”

“Lin Cong.”

Looking at the vigorous writing on the thin paper in front of him.

And seeing the signature with Lin Cong’s name at the bottom, a sense of being in a different world flashed through He Song’s eyes.

Lin Cong?

Who is he?

He Song’s acquaintance with Lin Cong began around the same time as his acquaintance with Meng Guan and Wei Fan.

One could say that Lin Cong was one of the first cultivators He Song met after he transmigrated.

Back then, Lin Cong was full of energy and vigor, his eyes sparkling, and his robust body made him seem like someone not to be trifled with.

Since he was He Song’s neighbor, they got acquainted and eventually became good friends.

However,

After He Song had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm in his newly-opened cave mansion several decades ago.

Lin Cong informed him through Sound Transmission Skill that he had failed in Foundation Establishment and was going back to Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

In the past several decades, there was no further contact between the two.

Unexpectedly, Lin Cong, who once tried to establish his foundation and failed, and then only wanted to return to Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion to leave behind his descendants, would actually send him a letter at this time.

Counting the time.

He Song suddenly realized.

“Qi Refining cultivators do not live more than 120 years.”

“I’m afraid Lin Cong’s life is running short..”
