Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation-Chapter 933 - 668: Huge Gap_2

Chapter 933: Chapter 668: Huge Gap_2

Indeed, precisely because of that.

Master Xing Yan, in his several hundred years of life,

had tried incessantly but never managed to break through his bottleneck; in the end, he met with the demise of having exhausted his lifespan and his path fading away.

This situation could not help but give He Song a great sense of caution concerning the matter of bottlenecks.

Although several hundred years for He Song, in truth, was not that long.

As an everlasting being, He Song could even opt to rely on time to gradually wear down the bottleneck.

But, being an everlasting being was precisely the reason why He Song must always prioritize enhancing his own strength as his foremost task.

Enhancing strength.

Growing oneself.

That is indeed what an everlasting being should strive for the most.

As for spending a great deal of time to whittle away at the bottleneck,

for He Song, this was not considered a good idea at all.

After all, within the Cultivation World, no one knew when a deadly crisis would strike.

If, because of the time he spent, he were to encounter a conflict between Ancestor Yuanyings later on,

or face some natural disaster that his own strength could not withstand,

then what should He Song, having not significantly improved his own strength due to the time spent, do at such a moment?

And it was precisely with such thoughts in mind,

that, upon encountering this unusual bottleneck and quickly realizing its extraordinary nature,

He Song’s first thought was to immediately end his seclusive cultivation and go elsewhere to seek Treasures that could help him break through this bottleneck.

Finding external items to assist in breaking through the bottleneck was the best method He Song could think of.

Initially,

at Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion,

hadn’t Meng Guan also faced a bottleneck?

And what had Meng Guan done at that time?

After accumulating quite a number of spirit stones, he chose to go to Green Wall Immortal City and bought a Breakthrough Elixir there.

And it was precisely because of that elixir that Meng Guan managed to break through the Qi-refining late stage bottleneck and truly gained the chance to step into the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Now, Meng Guan’s Cultivation has reached the Later Stage of Golden Elixir and he is advancing toward the Golden Elixir Great Perfection Realm.

This He Song knew very well.

Thus, when he also encountered a bottleneck, He Song’s first thought was to immediately end his seclusive cultivation and to seek Treasures that could help him break through this bottleneck.

No matter whether the Treasure was an elixir or some other kind of heavenly material,

in He Song’s eyes, as long as there was a chance to break through this bottleneck,

he would certainly secure it.

However,

after this idea dawned on him, He Song quickly suppressed the thought somewhat.

Though He Song’s current strength was already very formidable,

as a Golden Core Middle Stage cultivator, even if he faced a cultivator at the peak of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, he could still escape after paying a certain price.

Furthermore, he had even previously slain Cloud Traversal True Monarch, a cultivator in the Golden Elixir Early Stage.

With such an accomplishment to his name, He Song’s strength was naturally beyond question.

However, it was precisely because of such an accomplishment,

that after deep thought, He Song ultimately decided to first convert the gains from Cloud Traversal True Monarch into his own strength, making himself even stronger before ending his seclusion.

Only with greater personal strength would he be better able to find what he needed.

He Song’s loot from Cloud Traversal True Monarch was indeed plentiful.

Whether it was the Hundred Flowers Secret Skill, a Golden Core offensive secret skill,

or the Ascending Cloud Skill, a secret skill that provided both concealment and rapid flight,

or even the small sphere in his storage bag, which contained dense spirit Qi,

or even Cloud Traversal True Monarch’s Golden Elixir, which He Song had refined into a Taiyin Puppet,

to He Song, all these were tremendous gains.

Naturally, the time needed to fully convert these gains into his personal strength was not short.

Therefore, He Song’s seclusive cultivation this time lasted a full twenty years.

During these two decades,

He Song not only persisted in his daily cultivation but also continuously attempted to break through his bottleneck, vainly trying to break through with his own power.

The rest of his time was spent practicing the Ascending Cloud Skill and the Hundred Flowers Secret Skill, as well as other techniques.

After a full twenty years,

He Song had mastered the Ascending Cloud Skill to proficiency.

The He Song of today,

needed only a thought to execute the Ascending Cloud Skill directly, enveloping himself in the cloud mist formed by his own mana,

completely shielding himself from the divine sense probing of other cultivators.

Furthermore, the speed of the Ascending Cloud Skill was extremely fast.

Compared to the Earth Tunneling Skill that He Song himself had created, it was indeed much faster.

Moreover, if one were to fly high in the sky using the Ascending Cloud Skill,

even a Golden Elixir Master’s vision wouldn’t be enough to see everything on the ground below clearly.

Thus, He Song’s ability to survey the outside world had naturally improved tremendously.

At least,

the He Song who had always been using the Earth Tunneling Skill to move underground could never have had such an ability to survey the outside world.

Normally using the Earth Tunneling Skill to navigate underground, at most, He Song could rely on his own five senses to sense what was happening on the surface.

But how could this kind of sensing possibly compare to the accuracy of directly viewing from high above using one’s eyes?

It could be said that after mastering the Ascending Cloud Skill, He Song’s method of concealing himself could already be switched to the Ascending Cloud Skill.

As for the Earth Tunneling Skill, it could now become a backup option.

The Earth Tunneling Skill would only be used in scenarios where it was indeed more concealed than the Ascending Cloud Skill.

Otherwise, the Ascending Cloud Skill would become He Song’s main tunneling skill used henceforth.

In addition to the Ascending Cloud Skill, which He Song had practiced to proficiency,

He Song had also made great progress in cultivating the Hundred Flowers Secret Skill over these twenty years.

The Hundred Flowers Secret Skill,

regarded the mana blossoms cultivated by a cultivator as proof of its formidable power.

For cultivators practicing this skill, the more mana blossoms they cultivated, the greater the power of the Hundred Flowers Secret Skill when executed.

Initially, Cloud Traversal True Monarch had cultivated five mana blossoms.

Yet, the power of the Hundred Flowers Secret Skill wasn’t fully maximized by him.

Even when Cloud Traversal True Monarch executed the Hundred Flowers Secret Skill, its power wasn’t even comparable to an ordinary Golden Elixir Skill.

In He Song’s view, such power was indeed somewhat paltry.

However, once He Song officially began cultivating this Hundred Flowers Secret Skill,

he also discovered that cultivating this skill indeed took a lot of time.

At the beginning, this issue wasn’t apparent.

But as the number of mana blossoms He Song produced grew,

the further he cultivated, the more He Song could feel that the time required to cultivate each mana blossom was significantly increasing.

During the twenty years of his seclusive cultivation,

He Song spent his days in cultivation and in deep research of his own skills and techniques, setting aside some time for cultivating the Hundred Flowers Secret Skill and the Ascending Cloud Skill.

However, initially, this time allocation wasn’t considered extensive.

It was only after He Song had cultivated for several years and successfully encountered the bottleneck of the Later Stage of Golden Elixir,

and realizing that this bottleneck wasn’t easy to break through, that he shifted more attention to these two Golden Core Secret Skills.

And it was precisely for this reason that He Song truly became invested in the Hundred Flowers Secret Skill more than ten years ago.

Subsequently, until the Ascending Cloud Skill was refined to proficiency, He Song devoted the majority of his efforts to the cultivation of the Hundred Flowers Secret Skill.

This period accounted for no more than eight or nine years, almost ten years at most.

Fortunately, since the Qi Refining stage, He Song required much less time to practice various skills and techniques as compared to an ordinary cultivator.

Therefore, even though He Song spent only eight or nine years cultivating the Hundred Flowers Secret Skill,

he had already cultivated fifteen mana blossoms.

In the first ten blossoms, He Song didn’t find his own cultivation difficult.

To condense ten mana blossoms, it took He Song nearly five years.
