Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation - Chapter 781

Chapter 781: Chapter 592: Scraping Bone Evil Wind_2

Time passed, and now,

this was the situation He Song came to know.

Previously, the three of them had set out, but upon return, only two remained.

The Foundation Establishment True Person, invited by Flying Crane Master, had probably died within the malicious winds of that barrier long ago.

Even his relics were likely pocketed by the two Foundation Establishment Masters, White Crane and Flying Crane.

Sensing with his divine consciousness the conversation between the two in the inn,

He Song’s mind was also continuously categorizing and organizing their dialogue.

It was only after they parted ways once more, each seeking out their own targets to deceive,

that He Song managed to piece together this information from their previous exchange.

However, the information He Song obtained wasn’t entirely complete.

For example,

they never mentioned whether the evil wind within that barrier had any effect on the defenses they deployed together when they entered the treasure site.

Whether the defense of the Foundation Establishment cultivator who died was effective,

or if that malicious wind could directly penetrate the protection of artifacts and spirit amulets, inflicting terrible damage on the cultivators within those defenses.

But after careful contemplation, He Song eventually had a speculation.

The defensive measures a Foundation Establishment True Person could employ were not particularly strong.

Even if one’s cultivation had reached the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, or even Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, the artifacts they used were still top-grade magical equipment.

Though top-grade magical equipment is strong, it is just magical equipment after all.

It is incomparable to the spirit artifacts used by Golden Elixir Masters.

Besides, the defense provided by Foundation Establishment Talismans, although also very powerful,

likely could not withstand such an eerie and extraordinary evil wind for long.

Thinking this way,

if the power of that evil wind was indeed so formidable that it could instantly destroy these two kinds of defenses, such a scenario as observed by the two would be plausible.

Foundation Establishment cultivators, upon stepping into a certain range, would suddenly crumble into powder and scatter with the wind.

Such a sight was indeed terrifying.

But if its power was truly frightful to this degree, it would not be that difficult to imagine.

Therefore, after only a brief reflection in his mind, He Song dismissed this matter.

At present,

He Song had already come to know of all White Crane and Flying Crane’s plots.

He also understood why Master White Crane had repeatedly invited him to search for treasures in that site together.

Master White Crane wanted to invite him to that treasure site,

fearing his intention was to have the malevolent wind within the barrier completely erase him, thereby helping to reduce the wind’s force.

And the reason for targeting He Song

was nothing other than his cultivation having reached Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.

After entering, he would be able to weaken the power of the evil wind even further.

Additionally, as an amulet Tao master, He Song possessed strong personal abilities, and the number of spirit amulets and spirit stones he had were presumably abundant.

In such a case, when He Song perished, the resources they could obtain from him would also be more plentiful.

In this situation, Master White Crane happened to have had some interaction with He Song,

barely considered a favor owed to He Song.

Thus, bringing it up was not entirely rash,

and the likelihood of He Song agreeing was actually quite high.

Unfortunately for him,

Master White Crane would probably rack his brains out but would never understand that He Song was actually a Golden Elixir Master who did not hold the slightest regard for the treasure site he mentioned.

Furthermore, even if He Song had not concealed his cultivation,

given his caution, he would absolutely not consider exploring that so-called treasure site with him.

Therefore, Master White Crane’s entire scheme was completely ineffective against He Song.

Subsequently, He Song was able to deduce almost the entire backstory from their private conversation without them noticing.

Although He Song could not guarantee that these situations, which he had sorted out and inferred, were entirely true,

it made one thing clear to him.

The main reason Master White Crane repeatedly invited him to that treasure site

was primarily because he had set his sights on him.

He eyed He Song’s cultivation level, his status as an amulet Tao master, and the abundant resources in his possession.

Realizing this, a sense of inevitability naturally arose in He Song’s heart.

Indeed.

In the Cultivation World,

no matter how careful you are, it is never too much.

Although I had been extremely careful in any situation, reaching nearly the pinnacle of vigilance,

I had not expected that I would still be targeted by someone.

The cultivation of Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.

The identity of an amulet Tao master.

As well as the plethora of resources that came with the identity.

These three things, unexpectedly, were enough to make me a target.

Sitting cross-legged within the small pavilion of my mansion, He Song leisurely sipped his tea, yet sighs kept escaping him.

He truly hadn’t expected that despite being so cautious, he could still become someone’s mark.

But fortunately,

the one who had set their eyes on him was nothing but a minor Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Being a Golden Elixir Master, He Song naturally need not fear too much when facing such a minor Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Moreover, Master White Crane at the moment had done no more than focus his attention on him.

Apart from repeatedly sending out invitations, Master White Crane had not taken any other actions against He Song.

The Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivation that I made known to the public,

as well as the identity of an amulet master,

and the substantial resources that came with it,

were really all just a coincidence.

It so happened that Master White Crane was looking for someone whose publicly known conditions were similar to He Song’s.

Moreover, if He Song had not previously communicated with Master White Crane, these conditions really would have been the least likely to attract attention.

A Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator

represents the most advanced cultivators within the Foundation Establishment Realm.

A Foundation Establishment Great Perfection amulet master

represents more powerful capabilities than the vast majority of Foundation Establishment cultivators,

as well as wealth far beyond that of most.

Such qualifications, regardless of where one stands, are part of the category that is not easily provoked.

Unexpectedly, Master White Crane had stumbled upon a treasure land where, within it, existed a barrier capable of instantly annihilating a Foundation Establishment True Person.

Master White Crane’s goal was naturally for higher cultivation the better, as long as it was not in the Golden Elixir Realm.

Foundation Establishment Great Perfection suited Master White Crane’s needs perfectly.

At the same time, a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection amulet master, with their tremendous personal strength, would be utterly unable to utilize it in the existence of this barrier.

This led to the situation where He Song became a target for Master White Crane.

One might say,

He Song being targeted by Master White Crane really was just a coincidence.

Various fortuitous circumstances coincided.

Even so, He Song still reviewed everything he had done since arriving in Luo Feng Province,

and, in the end, he reached a conclusion.

It seems like under the current circumstances, the problem still lies with He Song himself.

If he hadn’t inadvertently let slip a word or two in his previous interactions with Master White Crane, which sped up Master White Crane’s cultivation progress,

then even if Master White Crane truly had his eyes on him, he would have no reason to make a move.

In other words,

He Song, from now on, still needed to be careful and discreet in what he said.

Otherwise, he could indeed end up causing trouble through reckless talk and thereby attract enemies.

With this thought flashing through his mind, He Song immediately began to alert himself.

From now on, whenever he conversed with others, it would be best to consider his words thoroughly before speaking.

This way, he could appear more composed and steady to others,

and also prevent divulging things that should not be disclosed due to speaking too hastily.

By doing so, he could naturally prevent situations where calamity stems from careless speech.

This time, indeed, He Song had inadvertently revealed a flaw.

Luckily, the cultivator who targeted He Song was merely a minor Foundation Establishment practitioner.

There is still room for rectifying the situation.

As He Song alerted himself, a trace of relief also flickered through his heart.

Luckily, luckily,

the existence of Master White Crane will not plunge him into crisis.
