Chapter 377: Chapter 369: Beginning Elixir Refinement

Translator: 549690339

With these materials at hand, He Song no longer needed to interrupt his elixir refinement due to lack of certain things at certain times.

He prepared for the unexpected and gathered everything he needed in advance.

This allowed him to concentrate completely during the large-scale elixir refinement process.

Since He Song had meticulously prepared everything in advance, as he began his elixir refinement, the quantity of Five Attributes Spirit Ginseng he held decreased rapidly as quantities of elixirs were refined.

Although the quantity of elixirs per batch could be controlled by increasing the amount of main and auxiliary medicines used in elixir refinement,

if too many spirit medicines were added at once, it would affect the quality of the elixir.

Therefore, during the refinement of the Five Attributes Spirit Elixirs, He Song usually controlled the amount of spirit medicine used and the quantity of elixirs produced in each batch.

He made sure there were no quality issues with the Five Attributes Spirit Elixirs he produced.

Only in this way, would he not face price reductions due to quality issues when he sold these spirit elixirs.

Meanwhile, during his daily elixir refinement process, He Song did not forget to improve his own Cultivation.

As important as earning spirit stones through elixir refinement was, improving his own Cultivation was equally important.

He Song understood the balance between the two quite well.

As such,

the time slowly passed as He Song continually refined his elixirs.

Time goes by gently.

Years pass in a blink of an eye.

Before he realized it, He Song had spent another ten years in his cave mansion.

During these ten years, He Song had turned all the Five Attributes Spirit Ginseng he had harvested ten years before into Five Attributes Spirit Elixirs.

However, since he still had over a million spirit stones on hand back then, he didn’t immediately leave to sell these Five Attributes Spirit Elixirs elsewhere.

Instead, he stored all the Five Attributes Spirit Elixirs he personally refined in his storage bag.

He planned to wait until today, ten years later, when he was ready to leave seclusion again and harvest spirit medicine, and then sell all the Five Attributes Spirit Elixirs in his storage bag.

In this way, he wouldn’t need to leave seclusion twice consecutively, wasting a large amount of time on the road.

He must remember:

Each time He Song leaves seclusion, he usually has to travel a great distance.

For instance, to harvest spirit medicines, he would need to travel from the Sphere of Influence of the Thick Earth Sect to the Pure Yin Sect, and then on to the Sun Faction, Jade Flower Sect, and the Golden Sword Sect’s Sphere of Influence.

Such a long journey would likely take several months.

Similarly, if he left seclusion to sell the Five Attributes Spirit Elixirs, he would also need to travel a great distance.

He Song had no intention of selling Five Attributes Spirit Elixirs within the Sphere of Influence of the Thick Earth Sect.

After all, it’s where his home base was located. If he was found to be selling a large quantity of elixirs here, wouldn’t his home base be exposed?

Thus, selling elixirs must be done far away from the Thick Earth Sect.

The Sun Faction, as a Nascent Soul Upper Sect, covered a large territory and had many Golden Elixir powers within its domain.

This was the best place to sell elixirs.

Within the Sun Faction, He Song couldn’t possibly sell all his elixirs in one Immortal City or State Mansion.

For his own safety,

he must run around many Immortal Cities or even State Mansions to be able to sell all the elixirs on his hand.

As a result, the time he needed to spend naturally increased as well.

Under these circumstances, if He Song wanted to save time, the best way would be to harvest spirit medicine and sell elixirs simultaneously.

While harvesting spirit medicines, he could sell the elixirs on hand.

In this way, he could save a lot of time.

Wouldn’t using this time for his own Cultivation be more worthwhile?

It was with this mindset that He Song had not sold the Five Attributes Spirit Elixirs in his storage bag today, ten years later.

However, now that another ten years have passed, a total of twenty years had passed since He Song started his plan to earn spirit stones.

During these twenty years, the number of spirit stones He Song had had decreased from over two million to mere hundreds of thousands.

He was running low on spirit stones.

If he didn’t leave seclusion to sell elixirs, he was afraid that the Golden Elixir Array where he resided would dissipate completely due to lack of spirit stones.

If it happened, he was likely to meet nothing good.

He Song was well aware of this.

And precisely because he understood, 𝗳re𝗲𝚠e𝐛n𝗼v𝗲l.c𝐨𝐦

having sensed that ten years had passed in the outside world, He Song opened his eyes in his quiet room today.

Another ten years had passed.

During these ten years, the power within He Song’s body had increased greatly, just like the previous decade.

Along with the constant growth of mana in his body, He Song’s strength also increased gradually.

After ten years of Cultivation, He Song had taken a firm step on his journey from the Late Foundation Establishment Stage to the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.

Even though, according to He Song’s estimate, he was still some distance away from the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection,

at his current pace, that distance wouldn’t be too far for him.

Meanwhile, during these ten years, apart from Cultivation, He Song did not neglect his studies of other skills.

The Wind Cloud Transformation Skills, which could disguise He Song’s aura as that of other objects, allowed He Song to imitate several objects after his constant Cultivation.

Now he could perfectly imitate not only stones, but also dry wood, soil, and gravel.

One might say,

presently, once He Song used the Wind Cloud Transformation Skill to change his aura, and then used the Purple Sky Meditation Skill to deceive others’ divine senses, and finally used the Earth Tunneling Skill to burrow into the ground,

unless he was incredibly unlucky, he would usually not be detected by anyone.

Even if someone continuously probed with their divine sense,

even if someone constantly scanned the area visually,

even if someone kept sensing the aura in the surroundings,

they would utterly fail to detect He Song’s presence.

Even a Master in the Foundation Establishment Realm, who is no more than several meters away from He Song,

would have trouble sensing He Song’s presence – even if he was on high alert.

The Purple Sky Meditation Skill hides He Song from divine senses, the Earth Tunneling Skill hides him from the gaze, and the Wind Cloud Transformation Skill changes He Song’s aura to match his surroundings.

When these three skills were combined, He Song could virtually disappear in front of a Master in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

However, since all the skills that He Song practiced were at the Foundation Establishment Realm level, if a Golden Elixir Master looked very closely, he might be able to see through them.

Yet if someone merely glanced over with their divine sense or eyes, even a Golden Elixir Master would be fooled by He Song and overlook his existence.
