Chapter 592: Chapter 498: 5 Years Later

This situation continued until Sun Faction had no choice but to retreat, with both sides confronting each other outside the Cloud State Mansion.

Only then did it slightly ease up.

Sun Faction still had a strong desire to defend the Cloud State Mansion.

If the God Locking Sect took over, the entire Cloud State would likely fall under their control.

At that point, Sun Faction might have to retreat to the Immortal State south of Cloud State, continuing to resist the God Locking Sect’s offensive.

However, once Cloud State was completely lost, the God Locking Sect would not easily withdraw after tasting the benefits of victory.

Furthermore, Sun Faction’s resistance might not have much effect.

The most likely scenario was that Sun Faction would keep retreating until they had nowhere to go.

Of course, Primeval Masters from the sect would have to come out of seclusion, forcing the God Locking Sect to recall their unstable factor, True Monarch Tian Jue.

If not, Sun Faction might be pushed all the way to the gates of their mountain stronghold.

After receiving Master Luo Jing’s message, He Song’s mind immediately flashed to the aftermath of this battle.

However, He Song did not know if his speculation was accurate.

After all, he was not Sun Faction’s headmaster, and he was already in the Golden Snake Sect’s territory.

The war between Sun Faction and the God Locking Sect did not really have much to do with him.

Even if Sun Faction were pushed to the gates of their stronghold, it would pose no threat to He Song.

But because Meng Guan and Wei Fan were still in Sun Faction, He Song paid close attention to the battle.

By the Purple River.

In his temporary cave dwelling.

He Song put away the letter in his hand and sighed deeply before quickly secluding himself in his cave once more.

—————–

Time flowed by.

In the blink of an eye, He Song had spent a full eight years in his temporary cave dwelling within the Golden Snake Sect.

During these eight years, He Song had immersed himself in the study of Formation Path, Alchemy, Tool Path, Talisman Path, and spell casting, but his cultivation level had not fallen behind.

Now, after eight long years of cultivation, He Song’s spiritual power in his Golden Core had grown considerably compared to eight years ago.

As his spiritual power became more vigorous, the amount of spiritual power he could access from his Golden Core increased as well.

From the Golden Elixir Early Stage to the Golden Core Middle Stage, he had taken a solid step forward in his cultivation journey.

Although this step had not allowed He Song to break through to the Golden Core Middle Stage, it had undoubtedly made him much stronger.

The distance to the Golden Core Middle Stage had also gotten much closer.

According to He Song’s estimation, his spiritual power and overall strength had made great progress compared to eight years ago.

The more spiritual power in his Golden Core, the more energy he could wield when he acted.

The more energy he could use, the more powerful his spells would be.

Under such circumstances, eight years later, with a significant increase in spiritual power, He Song’s strength had undoubtedly become much greater.

This was a genuine increase in He Song’s own strength.

The improvement in spiritual power led to a considerable raise in his cultivation capability.

Apart from the increase in spiritual power, He Song’s improvement in other areas could not be underestimated either.

Over these eight years, He Song had been tirelessly comprehending the Spirit-Gathering Array recorded in the Cultivation Fate Array Collection.

Finally, today, he had completely understood the whole Spirit-Gathering Array and was ready to start refining the Array Disk and Array Banners.

Once He Song successfully refined the Array Disk and Array Banners of the Spirit-Gathering Array, he could immediately set up a complete Spirit-Gathering Array and make his future cultivation path smoother.

It could be said that with a complete Spirit-Gathering Array, the spiritual energy concentration in He Song’s future cultivation locations would be much richer than it was now.

Under such a rich concentration of spiritual energy, He Song’s cultivation speed would naturally experience explosive growth.

With Earth Element Elixir refined by He Song himself and the support of a complete Spirit-Gathering Array, his cultivation speed would undoubtedly be much faster than when he had only taken Earth Element Elixir and used the Divine Thunder Array.

Such items that could rapidly enhance his cultivation speed naturally deserved He Song’s full attention.

Over these eight years, He Song had expended a great deal of mental effort in his study of the Spirit-Gathering Array.

Now, it was finally time for him to reap the rewards, and He Song’s heart was surging with excitement.

Luckily, He Song had made a large purchase in Hu Prefecture, Purple Cloud Sect, before leaving Green Moon Immortal State.

During that shopping spree, he had bought not only a large number of materials for alchemy, talisman making, and tool refining.

He had also acquired many materials for refining Array Disks and Array Banners needed for setting up arrays.

Since he already knew that he would prioritize comprehending the Spirit-Gathering Array after that, He Song naturally prepared the Golden Core materials needed for refining the Array Disk and Array Banners of the Spirit-Gathering Array in advance.

Now, these materials were quietly waiting inside He Song’s storage bag, waiting to be taken out and refined into Array Disks and Array Banners.

With a complete understanding of the Spirit-Gathering Array, all He Song needed to do now was refine the Array Disk and Array Banners for the Array, and he would be able to successfully set up a complete Spirit-Gathering Array.

He would not need to leave seclusion again to go to the Purple River State Mansion to purchase these items.

Of course, there was a reason for He Song’s prior shopping spree at the Purple Cloud Sect’s Hu Prefecture.
