Chapter 593: Chapter 498: Five Years Later_2
Before going into hiding, He Song had already chosen his place of refuge.
The place of refuge was in the Golden Snake Sect, which was far away from Hu Prefecture, where He Song had previously purchased his needed items.
The main reason He Song purchased these items in Purple Cloud Sect’s Hu Prefecture was because of its closeness to the Purple River Bank where he now resides.
The Purple River Bank is located within the Purple River State of the Golden Snake Sect.
Hu Prefecture is within the boundary of the Purple Cloud Sect.
Although it would not be entirely inaccurate to say that these two places have nothing to do with each other, being within the influence of different Nascent Soul Sects, no one would naturally associate them together.
After purchasing all the items he needed in Hu Prefecture, He Song quickly left and arrived in Purple River State.
Even if soone was trying to trace him, it would be impossible for them to use the information available to locate He Song.
It could be said that after He Song purchased a large amount of materials in Hu Prefecture, he disappeared imdiately and could not be traced.
As such, He Song’s personal safety was naturally secured.
After fully understanding the Spirit-Gathering Array, He Song quickly left the quiet room, went to his artifact refining room, and started crafting the Array Disk and Array Banners of the Spirit-Gathering Array.
Creating the Array Disk and Array Banners for the Spirit-Gathering Array isn’t particularly difficult.
Even though the complete Spirit-Gathering Array is quite advanced, classified under the category of Golden Elixir Array, as long as an ordinary cultivator is diligent, the failure rate of producing this Array’s Disk and Banners isn’t high.
Naturally, for He Song who could easily craft top-grade magical equipnt, this task was a walk in the park.
Being an artifact crafting master who could casually craft top-grade magical equipnt, He Song indeed had so achievents in crafting.
Therefore, when crafting the Array Disk and Array Banners, He Song reflected on all that he had learned over the past eight years.
Apart from the growth of his cultivation level and strength
And fully understanding the Spirit-Gathering Array.
He Song also made progress in his other skills.
For instance, in the Dao of Alchemy
Over the past eight years, He Song mastered the thod of refining a Golden Elixir Spiritual Elixir as ti passed.
This was the Heart-Clearing Elixir that He Song had planned to research early on.
After taking the Heart-Clearing Elixir, one could eliminate the toxic waste built up in a cultivator’s body similar to the Detoxification Elixir.
Since the Heart-Clearing Elixir is a Golden Elixir Spiritual Elixir, its effect of eliminating the toxic waste in a cultivator’s body is extrely potent.
Despite the significant amount of toxic waste in He Song’s body due to his long-term consumption of the Earth Elent Elixir, he was still able to quickly eliminate a large quantity of the toxic waste with the help of the Heart-Clearing Elixir.
When a large amount of toxic waste in his body was eliminated by the Heart-Clearing Elixir, the newly ford toxins from subsequent consumption of Earth Elent Elixir were also removed by He Song’s intake of Heart-Clearing Elixir.
In this way, when He Song kept his body in the best condition, with toxins unable to accumulate in his body, his cultivation speed naturally improved significantly.
He Song completely mastered the Heart-Clearing Elixir three years ago.
Since he had previously purchased the materials to refine the Heart-Clearing Elixir, He Song had not stopped taking the elixir during these three years.
At the sa ti, his intake of Earth Elent Elixir increased substantially compared to before.
As he was capable of refining Earth Elent Elixir, and with no threat of toxin accumulation, He Song was free to consu the Earth Elent Elixir, which further hastened his cultivation progress.
With the combination of the Heart-Clearing and Earth Elent Elixirs, He Song’s cultivation speed naturally increased rapidly.
Moreover, after completely mastering the Heart-Clearing Elixir three years ago, He Song did not stop his research into alchemy.
However, He Song shifted his focus to other elixirs.
For example, elixirs that restore mana.
The Calming Pill.
The Calming Pill, upon consumption, can quickly restore the mana within a cultivator.
This is a pill often in use by Golden Core cultivators in order to restore their mana.
To avoid defeat in magical battles due to depleted mana, leading to loss of life and the Dao, almost all Golden Core cultivators keep a large number of Calming Pills in their storage bags.
With an ample supply of Calming Pills on hand, one’s chance of winning in a evenly matched battle naturally increases considerably.
One could say, the circulation of the Calming Pill is no less than the Earth Elent Elixir, both can be exchanged for treasures like the Golden Elixir Spiritual Elixir from other Golden Core cultivators.
That’s why He Song chose to focus his studies on the Calming Pill after he had completely mastered the Heart-Clearing Elixir.
This was, of course, part of the reason.
But, more importantly, it was because He Song believed that if he ever found himself in such a situation.
Having a good number of Calming Pills on him could potentially exhaust the opponent.
Simply put, He Song focused on the Calming Pill for his own safety.
The circulation of Calming Pill, however, will be further addressed later.
Now, after three full years of research, He Song has acquired so understanding of the refining process for the Calming Pill.
Although he hasn’t reached the level of proficiency yet, he’s confident he’s not far off.
He Song now has a considerable number of Calming Pills on him, which he has stored away in his storage bag as his trump card.
If he ever finds himself in the situation he’s imagined, these Calming Pills would be his confidence.
Apart from his achievents in pill concoction, He Song has also made significant breakthroughs in talisman drawing.
After eight years.
He Song beca proficient in drawing all types of top-grade Foundation Establishnt Talismans, but, unfortunately, he didn’t have any manuals on Golden Core Talismans, making it impossible for him to work towards that.
For this, He Song initially planned to buy them straight from the location of the Hu Prefecture in Purple River State.
But, after a single visit, he found that there weren’t any manuals for Golden Core Talismans on sale inside the Treasure Pavilion of the Hu Prefecture.
In the end, He Song had to return to his temporary cave dwelling and continue to study other skills.
Consequently, his talisman making was put on hold temporarily, though he still occasionally draws so top-grade Foundation Establishnt Talismans for sale.
The selling price of top-grade Foundation Establishnt Talismans is quite high, and there’s also a great demand for them. The difference allows He Song to earn a lot of Spirit Stones.
Moreover, although He Song had temporarily put his talisman studies on hold, he beca increasingly familiar with the top-grade Foundation Establishnt Talismans he knew how to draw as he continued to make them.
Incidentally, this led He Song to a deeper understanding of talisman crafting.
It was quite the unexpected gain.
Apart from that, He Song didn’t neglect his research in artifact creation during those eight years.
Many years ago, He Song had already reached a level in artifact crafting where he could freely refine top-grade magical equipnt.
But back then, He Song was always stuck at this stage, seemingly missing sothing.
He was always a step away from the next stage – crafting low-grade spiritual equipnts.
He Song initially thought that this obstacle would hold him back for a long ti.
Unexpectedly.
During these eight years, when he attempted to craft a low-grade spiritual equipnt, He Song managed to break through this obstacle, like piercing through a sheet of thin paper.
The mont the obstacle was broken, a stream of enlightennt flashed in He Song’s mind.
Spiritual equipnt.
It’s called spiritual equipnt.
Because the spiritual equipnt communicates with the cultivator’s intent, as if it possesses spirituality.
With a thought, it will protect its master.
Nurturing a killing intent, the spiritual equipnt will move on its own without any wind.
Like an extension of the arm, shadowing the owner.
Although fundantally, there is no spiritual wisdom generated in the spiritual equipnt, nor is there any artifact spirit of the sort.
However, when spiritual equipnt is forged, a trace of spirituality is instilled into it by the artifact refiner.
The existence of this trace of spirituality is one of the reasons for the formation of spiritual equipnt.
The reason He Song was previously unsuccessful in attempting to refine spiritual equipnt was not that the materials he used were too poor, nor that the equipnt pot level he used was too low.
But…
