Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation - Chapter 791

Chapter 791: Chapter 597: Keeping a Trick up One’s Sleeve_2

“`

Although this meant that He Song could not know the current situation within the Upper Paradise, nor the specific conditions of the Evil Wind Array before him.

But one thing was certain.

Given that He Song had concealed his aura all along the way and had Earth Tunneled to this place from deep underground.

As long as he did not extend his divine sense to scan the surroundings and expose his existence, it was almost impossible for any cultivator to detect him.

Even if that cultivator was a Nascent Soul one, it would still be highly unlikely.

In such a situation, although He Song could not know the specifics of the Evil Wind Array because he did not extend his divine sense,

The time spent in comprehending the Evil Wind Array would be greatly prolonged.

It might even take up to a decade or more, nearly ten years longer than the previous option.

However, it was also sufficiently safe.

Of course.

Besides these two options, there was actually a third choice.

The third option was simple and crude.

That was to leave this place directly.

Not to bother with whatever treasures were in this paradise.

Not to care about how to comprehend the Evil Wind Array at all.

And not to worry about whether he would fall into danger if he rashly extended his divine sense here.

If faced with a dilemma, then forsake everything and leave this place directly.

As for that Evil Wind Array, those treasures of the paradise, treat them all as if he had never seen them.

In doing so, although He Song would have given up all opportunities here, his personal safety was indeed guaranteed.

Moreover, this trip had not cost He Song much effort.

Making a fruitless journey was not something to be ashamed of.

Given the circumstances, it might be better to just leave and avoid bringing trouble upon himself.

Thinking it over, this strategy of leaving directly didn’t seem like a bad idea.

However.

When these three choices and their corresponding pros and cons flashed through He Song’s mind,

He also found his answer.

The first option.

Was definitely not viable.

Once his extended divine sense attracted some old monster,

Given He Song’s current status at the Golden Core Middle Stage, escaping would probably be difficult.

In such a situation, He Song naturally would not put himself in peril just to save those nearly ten years.

Moreover, for other cultivators, ten years is definitely a period to be saved if possible.

After all, for them, ten years is actually a very long time.

Perhaps, it is because of wasting these ten years now that they fall short at the threshold when aiming for higher realms in the future.

Considering this, it’s definitely not worth it.

But.

He Song was different.

As an everlasting being, the one thing He Song lacked the least was time.

Since he was not short of time, there was naturally no need to take risks and put himself in a dangerous situation.

Besides that.

The third option, after thinking it through, was also discarded by He Song.

It wasn’t that the third choice was bad.

But it was because He Song understood himself well enough.

Even if he left this place directly, no longer concerning himself with the treasures here and the Evil Wind Array, and returned to Luo Feng Province state mansion,

But what would He Song do after returning to Luo Feng Province?

According to his own understanding,

If he went back now, in the following decade or so,

He would definitely continue to engage in seclusive cultivation in Luo Feng Province, delving into his skills just as before.

In such a case, with a life that would hardly change,

He Song, in the next decade, would simply return to Luo Feng Province and continue his secluded cultivation.

It can be said that if he returns now, He Song would revert to the previous state of constant seclusion, occasionally meeting guests.

In such a state, his power could only develop in an orderly fashion without any significant changes.

Whereas, if he continued to stay here,

“`

In those ten-plus years of comprehending the Evil Wind Array, He Song did not neglect all other things.

He was still able to maintain his daily Cultivation.

And he could almost guarantee it was no different from when he was in the state mansion of Luo Feng Province.

Under such circumstances, He Song was merely engaging in seclusive cultivation in a different location.

Since he was in seclusive cultivation during his time in the Luo Feng Province,

then coming here to comprehend the Evil Wind Array was also a form of seclusive cultivation, was it not?

Moreover, while being here and continuously comprehending that Evil Wind Array,

After more than ten years of seclusion,

not only had He Song’s cultivation level improved, but he had also acquired a very strong foundation for himself.

Such a good fortune might not even be found by others if they searched with a lantern.

How could He Song let such an opportunity pass by?

And it was for this reason,

that the third option He Song had previously considered appeared briefly in his mind, and then was quickly dismissed.

Since Cultivation in seclusion would be the same anywhere, with the speed of cultivation improvement unlikely to change much,

then why not continue to stay here?

After ten or more years, his foundation could become even more profound.

Thinking this way, He Song seemed to suddenly think of something, and abruptly took out an Array Disk and several Array Banners from his storage bag.

As He Song formed incantations with his hands,

The Array Disk and Array Banners that floated in front of him instantly transformed into streams of light, flying outwards in all directions.

In the blink of an eye, the area where He Song was located became thoroughly concealed by a Phantom Tracing Array.

The Phantom Tracing Array was a Golden Core Concealment Array He Song had obtained from outside Master Xuan Ying’s Cave Mansion.

Once this Array was deployed, its concealment effect was incredibly powerful.

Even an Ancestor Yuanying would find it extremely difficult to detect the presence of such a specialized Golden Elixir Array for concealment.

After setting up this Array, He Song waved his hand again.

In front of him, another set of Array Disk and Array Banners appeared.

With He Song continuing to form incantations with his hands, another Golden Elixir Array was successfully deployed by him.

This time, He Song set up a complete Spirit-Gathering Array.

To maintain a pace of Cultivation similar to that in the state mansion of Luo Feng Province, a complete Spirit-Gathering Array was essential.

The existence of this complete Spirit-Gathering Array also ensured that He Song’s Cultivation speed would not slow down while comprehending the Evil Wind Array there.

The Phantom Tracing Array previously setup could conceal any anomalies as well as He Song’s presence.

Thus, He Song could fully immerse himself in Cultivation and the comprehension of the Evil Wind Array without the need to bother operating the Concealing Divine Sense Skill.

After both Arrays were arranged,

He Song casually made a move,

and another set of Array Disk and Array Banners appeared in front of him.

As He Song formed incantations with his hands once more,

He Song also deployed a Divine Thunder Array.

The concealment-focused Phantom Tracing Array and the Spirit-Gathering effect of the complete Spirit-Gathering Array were both essential Arrays for He Song.

And lastly, the third Array that He Song deployed, the Divine Thunder Array, was put in place as a precautionary measure.

Although the Phantom Tracing Array and the complete Spirit-Gathering Array could allow He Song to rest easy and not slow down his Cultivation,

they lacked any offensive or defensive capabilities.

If his location were to encounter a surprise attack, or if someone accidentally entered, He Song might become very passive.

Therefore, setting up a Divine Thunder Array in advance, capable of both offense and defense, naturally also became an important safeguard against unforeseen events.

In the Cultivation World, anything could happen.

He Song naturally would not fail to leave himself a contingency plan.

Of course.

If talking about contingencies,

when He Song was on his way to this Upper Paradise, he had also left himself a contingency several hundred miles away from the Upper Paradise.

It was a Divine Thunder Array.

Leaving a Divine Thunder Array as a fallback when approaching a potentially dangerous area had become a source of a sense of security for He Song.

Hence, on this trip, He Song naturally would not forget.

However, the Divine Thunder Array set up several hundred miles away from this place could not quench his immediate thirst for security.

In his chosen location for seclusive cultivation, He Song would still set up a Divine Thunder Array to protect his own safety.
