Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 715: Chapter 559 Strange Incident_2

He had not had too much contact with the people of diabolism.

Even when he oversaw the Herbs Immortal Workshop, he didn’t interact much with Demon Cultivators within the workshop.

However, during that period, He Song had heard plenty of tales about the Demonic Cultivators.

Among the things he heard before, He Song’s understanding of the Demonic Cultivators concentrated on some of their less admirable traits.

For example, their capricious nature, their competitiveness, and their tendency to snatch away opportunities.

These were actions that Demonic Cultivators were indeed capable of executing, and they did so quite skillfully.

In the world of Demon Cultivation, such acts had become commonplace.

Naturally, after learning about some of the habits of Demon Cultivators, He Song was somewhat more worried about Luo Jing and True Monarch Yun Jing, who were currently in Biyue Prefecture.

But on second thought, He Song also realized that the same behaviors, such as capriciousness, competitiveness, and snatching opportunities, occurred quite frequently among the cultivators of the Righteous Tao as well.

With that in mind, He Song’s worries somewhat eased.

After all, among the cultivators of the Righteous Tao, there were also those who fell from grace.

Perhaps Luo Jing and True Monarch Yun Jing were already wary of these individuals.

Furthermore, both of their cultivation levels were not low, being monks of the Jubao Pavilion.

So even though He Song was slightly worried, he wasn’t overly concerned.

The Jubao Pavilion.

And their own strong cultivation.

Would protect themselves.

After sending a message to Master Luo Jing advising her to be careful, He Song continued to sit and enjoy his tea.

With the tea fragrance gradually spreading into the surroundings.

The rich aroma in He Song’s mansion grew increasingly intense.

He had just received news that all of his enemies had suddenly died, so He Song felt jubilant and grew fonder of the Golden Elixir spirit tea before him.

With each cup of spirit tea he drank, his mood became even more pleasant.

He felt as refreshed as if he had taken a cool bath in the height of summer, experiencing an extreme sense of comfort.

The five enemies that had been on He Song’s mind before.

Were now all dead.

This freed He Song, who had been thinking of seeking revenge personally, from his original objective.

Since those five Golden Elixir Masters had fallen, He Song no longer needed to be ready to set out at any moment to deal with any that might have slipped through the net.

After a session of tea tasting that lifted his spirits, He Song casually set up an array skill in his mansion and began his daily cultivation.

In this way.

Time flew by swiftly.

In the blink of an eye.

Several days had passed.

Several days later.

He Song had just finished his daily cultivation and was about to head to the small pavilion where he used to drink alone under the moon.

But then he noticed an unusual activity on his Sound Transmission Amulet.

Upon realizing this, He Song’s expression remained unchanged, but his mind instantly recalled the events of the past few days.

In the past few days, He Song had asked Master Luo Jing to inform him of every significant and minor event that occurred in the Biyue Prefecture.

With several days gone by, this message might be from Master Luo Jing.

And the content of the message might be the changes in the Biyue Prefecture over the past few days.

With these thoughts, He Song didn’t hesitate to open the Sound Transmission Amulet, from which he took out a thin piece of paper.

“Fellow daoist, you had asked me earlier to keep an eye on the situation in the Biyue Prefecture and to update you on it.”

“In my observations over the past several days, I indeed noticed something unusual.”

“These past several days.”

“No, I should say that it started from the day after the Biyue Prefecture was overrun, and those five Golden Elixir Masters within were all slain.”

“The atmosphere within the Biyue State Mansion had already become strange.”

“After the Golden Elixir Master from the God Locking Sect arrived here and brazenly slaughtered five Golden Elixir Masters in front of everyone, completely annihilating the three Golden Core Families within the state mansion.”

“Regardless of their level of cultivation, nearly all cultivators within the Biyue State Mansion halted their various activities.”

“Except for some mortals or low-ranked cultivators who had to go out to make a living, essentially no one above Foundation Establishment ventured outside.”

“Under such circumstances, those Golden Elixir Masters who had taken over the Biyue State Mansion, aside from appearing on the first day, had not been seen at any other time.”

“Whether it was the spies from the Treasure Pavilion or news from within the Biyue State Mansion, no one had heard of the whereabouts of these Golden Elixir Masters.”

“However, due to the terrifying pressure brought by these Golden Elixir Masters previously, the cultivators within the state mansion did not speculate much.”

“Such was the case until two days ago.”

“Two days ago, some bold cultivators sneaked into the residences of those five already deceased Golden Elixir Masters and obtained a considerable amount of treasures.”

“With the news spreading, many cultivators became greedy, naturally following suit and began scouring for loots.”

“Because the three great Golden Core Families within the state mansion were all wiped out, many cultivators were able to enter and gained a lot.”

“But afterwards, as more and more cultivators left their hiding spots and began to move around within the Immortal State Mansion.”

“They still hadn’t seen a single Golden Elixir Master from the God Locking Sect.”

“It seemed as though those Golden Elixir Masters had simply vanished overnight, completely losing their trace.”

“Moreover, the Golden Elixir Master from the Sun Faction was also late in arriving.”

“Now, two days later, the young lady has already learned of the news from the Jubao Pavilion.”

“Within this Biyue State Mansion, there’s no longer any trace of any other Golden Elixir Masters.”

“At present, only three Golden Elixir Masters from our Jubao Pavilion remain here.”

“Besides this, within the Biyue State Mansion, there sits no other Golden Elixir Master.”

“It’s also unknown where these Golden Elixir Masters from the God Locking Sect have gone or why they left in secret.”

“And why is the Golden Elixir Master from the Sun Faction so delayed.”

“As for what will happen next, the young lady is also unaware.”

“But if there’s any news later, the young lady will surely inform the Dao Friend of the truth, and I hope the Dao Friend will be at ease.”

He Song’s gaze swept over the neat and dense script on the paper in his hand, his expression unchanged, but a guess flickered through his mind.

According to what Master Luo Jing says now.

If the cultivators sent by the God Locking Sect to the Biyue State Mansion did not stay long within.

Then, where could they have gone?

Were they out intercepting those cultivators from the Sun Faction coming to their aid?

Or, after eradicating the leading evils within the Biyue State Mansion, did they have no intention to occupy and soon returned to the God Locking Sect’s area of influence?

Or perhaps, were they always hidden in the dark, ready to launch a surprise attack when the Sun Faction’s cultivators arrived?

The speculations emerging in He Song’s mind did have some basis.

But they seemed quite thin due to the lack of additional information to corroborate them.

At this moment, He Song’s guesses were just that—guesses.

What the real situation was.

He Song currently could not deduce it and could only wait for Master Luo Jing’s follow-up message.

However, he did not know.

Which of He Song’s current guesses was true.

Or were they all false?

After storing Master Luo Jing’s Sound Transmission Amulet into his storage bag, He Song pondered for a moment before shaking his head and leaving the Quiet Room, making his way to the small pavilion within the mansion.

In these past few days, due to He Song’s Golden Core Middle Stage cultivation, the Golden Elixir Masters from the Hu Prefecture had been quite enthusiastic towards him.

Almost every day, members from the Golden Core Families would come to invite He Song to banquets.

He Song had not declined in the previous few days, instead attending in person. He had also had some interaction with the three Golden Elixir Masters within the Hu Prefecture.

However, this interaction was not close; it was more of a nodding acquaintance, merely acknowledging the existence of this Golden Elixir Masters.

As for the rest, He Song did not care, and naturally, neither did those three Golden Elixir Masters who ran their families in this place.
