Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation
Chapter 1115 - Chapter 1115 Chapter 759 Greed Overrides Righteousness_2

Chapter 1115: Chapter 759: Greed Overrides Righteousness?_2 Chapter 1115: Chapter 759: Greed Overrides Righteousness?_2 “During this period, the Wu Family also spared no effort in nurturing him.”

“A massive amount of resources were continuously delivered to the hands of that Triple Spirit Root Cultivator to help his cultivation soar.”

“However, in my early years, I once heard a rumor from the lips of a Foundation Establishment elder in my family.”

“It was said that the reason why the Wu Family could help that Triple Spirit Root Cultivator enter the Foundation Establishment Realm in such a short time, and also enable him to make rapid progress within the realm,”

“was mainly because the Wu Family had sold the family heritage and thereby acquired a great deal of resources.”

“This was what allowed that Wu Family’s Triple Spirit Root Cultivator to establish his foundation so quickly and make swift progress within the realm.”

“It seems that the Wu Family’s Triple Spirit Root Cultivator is now on the verge of breaking through to Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.”

“Over these years, the Wu Family has been quite active, seemingly intending to use these resources to pave the way for that Triple Spirit Root Cultivator onto the Golden Core Path.”

“During those few years when the Wu Family’s Triple Spirit Root Cultivator was about to establish his foundation,”

“in the Treasure Pavilion of the Red Maple Prefecture,”

“a large auction event was held.”

“And at that auction event, an advanced tunneling skill appeared.”

“However, due to the confidentiality of the Treasure Pavilion, I do not know whether that advanced tunneling skill was indeed the family heritage of the Wu Family.”

“But rumors have it that the ancestors of the Wu Family also produced a Golden Elixir Master.”

“And after connecting all these events,”

“according to my speculation, there might still be the existence of that advanced tunneling skill within the Wu Family,”

“but it probably exists only in the memories of those of the Wu Family.”

“The previous Foundation Establishment True Person from the Wu Family, who was the most esteemed in the family before, must have the existence of that advanced tunneling skill in his memory.”

“And the cultivation of that former Foundation Establishment True Person from the Wu Family seems to have just recently broken through to Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.”

“As for that Triple Spirit Root Cultivator of the Wu Family, due to his age, he has only reached the threshold of Mid-stage Foundation Establishment thus far.”

“His cultivation is still at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.”

“If sir has mastered the Soul-Searching Skill and has the ability to slay those two Foundation Establishment cultivators… ”

The following words were not continued by Zhou Ruo.

Instead, she turned her gaze to He Song, a hint of affirmation flashing in her eyes.

In Zhou Ruo’s opinion, the cultivation of He Song was definitely without a doubt at Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.

And the recent breakthrough of the Wu Family’s Foundation Establishment True Person was only to Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

There were two minor realms between his cultivation level and He Song’s Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.”

And the Wu Family’s Triple Spirit Root Cultivator’s cultivation was merely at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.”

The cultivation disparity between him and He Song spanned three minor realms.

In the Foundation Establishment Realm, being separated by two minor realms can bestow an overwhelming power.”

Not to mention a gap of three minor realms.

In other words,

If a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator like He Song took action, a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator and an Early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator would probably be quickly slain and then soul-searched by him.”

By that time, He Song would naturally be able to obtain all the information about that advanced tunneling skill from the memories of those two Wu Family cultivators.

Even the other treasures left by the Wu Family’s Golden Elixir ancestor many years ago would certainly be known to He Song.

Then, He Song could naturally proceed to the Wu Family’s location and collect those treasures in their entirety.

He Song’s gains would far exceed that single advanced tunneling skill.”

Thus, the benefits Zhou Ruo could obtain from He Song would naturally increase exponentially.

Her probability of stepping into the Foundation Establishment Realm in the future would also greatly increase.

At the same time,

This matter could also eliminate a major threat for the Zhou Family.

After all, even if the Zhou Family were to escape a calamity this time due to He Song’s intervention,

He Song would inevitably leave one day.

Once He Song departs, what could the Zhou Family, where Zhou Ruo belonged, use to resist the coercion of two Foundation Establishment True Persons?

Furthermore, the cultivation of the Wu Family’s Triple Spirit Root Foundation Establishment True Person would continue to grow higher with the passage of time.

Perhaps to the point where the Wu Family might once again produce a Golden Elixir Master.”

And when that time comes,

What could Zhou Ruo’s Zhou Family use to resist the Wu Family’s Golden Elixir Master?

But if He Song does indeed act as Zhou Ruo expects,

Then,

Not only could her Zhou Family protect their ultimate foundation, but it could also significantly increase the probability of Zhou Ruo herself stepping into the Foundation Establishment Realm.”

By that time, with the two great Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Zhou Family manifesting in the world together, the family would naturally be able to vie for more resources, allowing the younger generations of the Zhou Family to receive better cultivation.

Even if, by chance, another cultivator with three spirit roots appeared in the Zhou Family later on.

In the future, it might even be possible for the Zhou Family to produce another Golden Elixir Master.

One might say,

the proposal made by Zhou Ruo at this moment,

not only had the potential to grant He Song access to a profound tunneling skill,

but also held absolute benefits for him as well as the Zhou Family.

In such a case, it could be described as a win-win-win situation.

The only thing was forsaking the Wu Family, whom He Song had never met before.

Yet, in the ruthless Cultivation World, such situations were far from rare.

After hearing Zhou Ruo’s words, He Song also had some thoughts about what Zhou Ruo had said.

The matters spoken of by Zhou Ruo,

if true,

would also be of no small benefit to He Song.

After all, the Wu Family was merely a Foundation Establishment Clan.

Even if their ancestors produced a Golden Elixir Master,

such a long-deceased Golden Elixir Master did not hold any deterrent power over him.

Even if the Golden Elixir Master of the Wu Family were to stand before He Song right now, He Song would not feel the slightest bit intimidated.

What’s more, the Golden Elixir Master of the Wu Family had been dead for who knows how many years.

Under such circumstances, He Song naturally did not have to worry that such an action on his part would bring disaster upon himself.

Furthermore, once He Song accomplished his goal,

he would leave this place quickly, essentially having no further interaction with the cultivators of this place.

In this way, if He Song were to do as Zhou Ruo said, slaying both Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Wu Family and annihilating the entire Wu Family,

indeed, he could gain quite a few benefits from the Wu Family.

There was even a great possibility of finding the profound tunneling skill he desired among the Wu Family’s possessions.

However,

although this idea flashed through He Song’s mind, deep inside he felt it was improper.

After all, there was no enmity between the Wu Family and He Song.

Even if the Triple Spirit Root Cultivator of the Wu Family grew up, it wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing for He Song.

After all, even if He Song were to help Zhou Ruo, allowing the Zhou Family to escape their predicament,

the conflict between the two parties was never that deep.

It was just a matter of one side’s lack of strength and the other calling for external support.

Between He Song and the Wu Family, there really wasn’t any harm done.

The cultivators of the Wu Family wouldn’t even hold a grudge against He Song for this matter;

they would just lament that the Zhou Family found good external assistance.

And because of this,

if He Song truly did as Zhou Ruo suggested, fearing that the Wu Family would be wiped out to a man,

this was not what He Song wanted to see.

To destroy a family for his own selfish desires,

how would such actions be different from those of a Demonic Cultivator?

After all, He Song had other avenues to acquire a profound tunneling skill without the need to annihilate a family for it.

If anything, it would just mean spending more time, bidding for a profound tunneling skill at one of the Treasure Pavilion’s grand auctions.

This was something He Song could afford to wait for.

He didn’t have to resort to wiping out a family to achieve his end.

With such thoughts flashing through his mind,

He Song looked at Zhou Ruo with a touch of sentiment in his gaze.

He had initially thought her to be a person who, at the sight of profit, would lose her integrity and become blinded by temptation.

Back then, He Song had even labeled her in his mind as someone not to be associated with deeply.

However, the turns of events turned out to be completely beyond He Song’s expectations.
