Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 293: Chapter 285: Seeing Lin Cong Again

Translator: 549690339

Knowing that the purpose of his visit could not be achieved, He Song sighed, cupped his hand, and took his leave.

Seeing this, Master Luo Jing did not try to keep him, she just watched He Song leave.

But just as He Song’s figure disappeared around the corner, Master Luo Jing let out a long sigh, her beautiful eyes looking up at the sky.

From her mouth came words like “If only I…” , “good friend”, “what more could one ask for”, and the like.

No one knew what she was muttering.

He Song remained in the dark about this.

After leaving the Treasure Pavilion in the Heaven Power Immortal City, He Song went to the other shops in the Immortal City for a stroll.

A gift was needed for a friend’s invitation.

However, anything that an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator could afford, Lin Cong, who was at the Qi Refining Great Perfection, could probably afford as well.

Although Lin Cong had failed to break through to Foundation Establishment in the past, his cultivation remained at the Qi Refining Great Perfection.

But his overall strength was still there.

Being able to cultivate to the Qi Refining Great Perfection as a loose cultivator, his strength and connections must be quite substantial.

Under such circumstances, if He Song were to give him something ordinary, it would inevitably appear rather shabby.

He Song was now a Foundation Establishment Master.

While he didn’t need to give exotic treasures, at the very least, he should not appear too shabby.

In the end,

After pondering for a long time, He Song chose to buy a simple Qi Refining Skill Means from a street vendor.

This simple Qi Refining Skill Means was carefully selected by He Song after a long time.

It was not that he could not afford other profound cultivation skills.

But after searching for a long time, only this one skill met his requirements.

This skill had no other effects other than allowing a mortal to guide Qi into their body and become a true cultivator.

However, unlike other skills, this skill was not limited to cultivating a specific Spirit Root.

Regardless of the type of Spirit Root, as long as one had a Spirit Root, they could successfully guide Qi into their body through this skill.

In other words,

As long as one learned this skill and had a Spirit Root, they could become a cultivator through this skill.

Lin Cong did not have much time left, and his descendants did not even have Spirit Roots.

Presumably, after Lin Cong’s death, his descendants would sink or swim in the mortal world.

Perhaps within a few decades after Lin Cong’s death, the entire family would still be wealthy and remember that their ancestors had been cultivators.

But what about in a hundred, or even several hundred years?

By that time, who knew what kind of life his descendants would be living?

The skill He Song was seeking now was for the sake of Lin Cong’s descendants.

As long as he sealed this skill into a blank jade slip and gave it to Lin Cong, it would be passed down through the generations of Lin Cong’s descendants.

Maybe with a descendant from some generation, Lin Cong’s descendants would again possess Spirit Roots.

This skill could then help them become a cultivator.

If such a situation should arise,

The gift that He Song chose at this time,

Would probably be incredibly valuable.

At the same time, in order for Lin Cong’s descendants to have some self-protection after becoming cultivators, He Song decided after some consideration,

To take a small part of his Spirit Puppet Skill for making puppets and seal it together with the simple skill into a blank jade slip.

Afterward, He Song made the jade slip look old and unremarkable.

In this way, even if Lin Cong’s descendants really reached the end of the line, they would probably not sell this item to someone else.

As long as this object remained in the hands of Lin Cong’s descendants, one day it would come in handy.

Perhaps it could even bring a ray of hope to Lin Cong’s descendants.

After all this was done, He Song left the Heaven Power Immortal City satisfied.

As a tunneling light,

He Song continued on his way.

He passed through the territories of the Mountain Immortal City,

Skirted the mountain gate of the Thick Earth Sect,

And passed the long-unseen Green Wall Immortal City.

Finally,

The aqua blue escape light that He Song had turned into abruptly stopped dozens of miles outside a small Immortal Pavilion.

Dozens of miles from Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion,

He Song activated his Qi Observing Skill and carefully observed Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion. After discovering no abnormalities, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion was still the same as before.

However, the aura of the Master Guardian had changed.

Some of the houses had changed slightly in style.

Many of the buildings appeared as if they had been rebuilt, looking brand new.

Aside from these changes, there were no other abnormalities.

Standing dozens of miles away from Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, He Song hesitated but ultimately decided to enter with a low profile.

He did this for no other reason than that he didn’t want anyone to target Lin Cong’s family after he left.

Lin Cong’s family was about to go to the mortal world.

If a Foundation Establishment Master were to come and make a high-profile visit to send off Lin Cong’s family,

It would indeed give Lin Cong’s family more prestige.

However,

At the same time, it would also draw the attention of others to Lin Cong’s family.

Perhaps someone would think, would the Foundation Establishment Master leave something valuable for Lin Cong’s family when he came to say goodbye?

The legacy of a Foundation Establishment Master, no matter what it is, would undoubtedly be valuable to Qi Refining stage cultivators.

As for what will happen to Lin Cong’s family after He Song leaves, there is no need to say much about it.

The possibility is quite significant.

Just a few thoughts give He Song an understanding of the danger involved.

Naturally, he would not do something that would push his friends into the fire pit.

Although Lin Cong is now at the Qi Refining Great Perfection stage, and not everyone can provoke him.

However, there is still one problem.

Lin Cong’s lifespan is running out, and there are no cultivators with spirit roots among his descendants.

After his death, his descendants naturally lose any security protection.

Even if no one dares to cause trouble before Lin Cong’s death, the situation probably changes instantly after he passes away.

By that time… without the protection of Lin Cong, a cultivator at the Qi Refining Great Perfection stage.

It is easy to imagine what his family members would encounter.

Naturally, after contemplating, He Song decides to proceed quietly and must not reveal his identity in front of others.

There is no harm in telling Lin Cong about his own Foundation Establishment.

However, it is something that should never be mentioned to his family and other people.

Tens of miles away from the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, He Song changes his robes into a black one and exposes his cultivation to the realm of the Qi Refinement Great Perfection.

After completing these preparations, He Song then uses the Mountain Wind Riding Skill to head towards the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

At the same time, as He Song advances, a sound-transmitting paper crane is released from his hand and flies straight into the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion not far away.

With the launch of the sound-transmitting paper crane, He Song’s Master-level sees everything and immediately locates Lin Cong’s residence.

Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

When He Song passes through the spirit fields and watches the cultivators performing Spirit Rain Skill around them, his eyes flash with a touch of nostalgia.

Wasn’t he once like these people, working hard every day to take care of the spirit fields, just to continue staying in the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion?

Blinking an eye, decades have passed.

The former Qi Refining stage spiritual plant farmer has now reached the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment and is about to break through to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage.

Such cultivation, compared to those spiritual plant farmers whose cultivation is mostly below the Qi-refining mid-stage, has a completely different status. As his gaze sweeps around, He Song’s eyes flash with a fleeting light.

He observes the qi of the surroundings and shakes his head.

These spiritual plant farmers are mostly small cultivators at the beginning of the Qi Refining stage, and only a few have reached the Qi Refining mid-stage.

Just like how He Song was before.

These spiritual plant farmers are also striving to cultivate, aiming to become even stronger.

As time passes day by day, perhaps some exceptional individuals among them will be born.

Of course, it is improbable for them to achieve the Foundation Establishment level like He Song and begin climbing towards higher peaks of cultivation. With the identity of a spiritual plant farmer, achieving the body of a Foundation Establishment master.

Having been at the Foundation Establishment stage for such a long time, He Song has only seen one person like that – himself.

The others who reached Foundation Establishment, even the lowest-ranking ones, already had a reputable name as an amulet Tao master like Zhao Lin at the stage of Qi Refining mid-stage.

Thinking of Zhao Lin.

He Song’s gaze sweeps over the small Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion in front of him, and a ripple appears in his eyes.

He and Zhao Lin haven’t been in touch for a long time.

Since both of them reached the Foundation Establishment stage, their contact has become less and less frequent.

At present, He Song doesn’t know Zhao Lin’s whereabouts.

However, since Zhao Lin has successfully established his foundation, his fate is much better than Lin Cong and the others limited to the realm of Qi Refining Great Perfection.

As he steps into the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, He Song looks around at the familiar and unfamiliar sights, and his gaze becomes somewhat emotional.

After all, this place was his first stop when he entered the Cultivation World.

It is in this place that he formed deep friendships with people like Meng Guan, Wei Fan, Zhao Lin, and Lin Cong.

Looking back at the past, a smile emerges on He Song’s face.

He has to admit, the feeling of walking on thin ice when he first came was truly unforgettable.

He vividly remembers the bloody aura and oppressive atmosphere emanating from Lin Cong when they first met.

Thinking of Lin Cong, He Song stops in his tracks and looks ahead.

He detects a familiar breath coming towards him.

Soon.

The figure of an old man in a black robe appears around the corner, entering He Song’s line of sight.

At the same time, the black-robed old man subconsciously looks towards He Song’s location.

They lock eyes.

A smile appears on both their faces.

“Mr. He, it’s been decades since we last met; it’s great to see you again at this time.”

“Nowadays, I’m getting old, but you still look the same as before, even better than ever.”

“I am really… Envious.”

Hastily approaching He Song, Lin Cong, now dressed as an elderly man, greets him with a cupped-hand salute.

At the end of his words, Lin Cong exhales a long breath, and faint redness appears around his eyes.

Seeing this, how could He Song not know what he is thinking?

Lin Cong failed in his attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage decades ago.

Since then, he returned to Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion from Green Wall Immortal City and has been living there ever since.

He married and had children, living out the rest of his life in peace..
