Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation
Chapter 1244 - Chapter 1244 824

Chapter 1244: 824 Chapter 1244: 824 “At that time, He Song and I were filled with nothing but excitement. We also felt that the anomaly detected before the array might have been a false alarm.”

“So, we paid it no further mind and simply charged ahead.”

“However, Fellow Daoist’s actions, although seeming flawless,”

“ultimately left some loose ends.”

“Inside Master Xing Yan’s cave mansion, aside from the jade slip that recorded Master Xing Yan’s life story, which was taken by you,”

“He Song and I also noticed some slight traces elsewhere.”

“Nevertheless, it wasn’t until after He Song and I activated the array within the cave mansion that we noticed these traces.”

“So, at that time, you probably were not aware.”

“Inside Master Xing Yan’s cave mansion, there were actually some things that made He Song and I speculate a lot about Master Xing Yan.”

“For example, the only two remaining spirit artifacts in Master Xing Yan’s storage bag.”

“As well as the sparse number of spirit stones within it.”

“And some other minor clues.”

“All these led He Song and me to believe that Master Xing Yan was probably not the kind of person who would leave behind two Golden Congealing Elixir Pills for posterity, even in face of death.”

“Under such suspicious circumstances, once He Song and I successfully broke through to the Golden Core Realm, we immediately sought the backing of a powerful sect.”

“This is also the reason why He Song and I quickly chose to join the Sun Faction after our breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm.”

“With such support, even if the matter was suspicious, it’s unlikely for anyone to come to the gates of the Sun Faction’s sect to do anything.”

“After all, there are Nascent Soul cultivators within the gates of the Sun Faction.”

“And this suspicion about the anomaly became even stronger after He Song’s and my cultivation caught up to that of Master Xing Yan.”

“Because, even for a Middle Golden Elixir Cultivator, obtaining two Golden Congealing Elixir Pills is not an easy task.”

“And so, the abrupt appearance of two Golden Congealing Elixir Pills within Master Xing Yan’s cave mansion naturally became a doubt in our minds.”

“However, until today,”

“He Song and I, although we both had our speculations,”

“never guessed that the matter was related to you.”

“After all, in our view, your successful breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm was largely thanks to my significant contribution.”

“Moreover, your subsequent advancement in cultivation was not particularly fast.”

“So, it seemed completely inconsistent to attribute such deeds to you.”

“However, today, as you spoke of it yourself and presented these items,”

“even if we did not want to believe, we had no choice but to accept it.”

“Moreover, seeing your current late Golden Elixir stage and your imminent entrance into the Golden Elixir Great Perfection,”

“it’s clear that you’re telling the truth.”

“If you had not reached the Golden Core Realm before us, your cultivation level now would probably be like Wei, having just broken through to the later stage of the Golden Elixir not long ago.”

“Yet, observing your aura, you had already entered the Later Stage of the Golden Elixir quite some time ago and are about to reach the Golden Elixir Great Perfection.”

“Given these corroborations,”

“and adding what you have said, which largely matches the guesses He Song and I made over the years,”

“it is clear that the two Golden Congealing Elixir Pills we found years ago were indeed gifts from you.”

“We admire your caution,”

“We are impressed.”

“If you hadn’t spoken today, He Song and I might have remained in the dark, not to mention anyone else.”

“Your discretion and your remembrance over the years are truly our fortune.”

“Otherwise,”

“had this matter been exposed in the beginning, we three would likely have faced certain death, with little chance of survival.”

“Your noble act, we two will never forget.”

Having said that, Meng Guan and Wei Fan, who had an approving look on his face, both stood up and once again bowed respectfully to He Song.

One could overlook not knowing before.

But now that they knew,

Meng Guan and Wei Fan had their own thoughts about what He Song had done in the past.

If not for He Song,

even if Meng Guan and Wei Fan could reach the Golden Core Realm, it would certainly not have been so soon.

And on the path of cultivating immortality, being slow by one step means being slower at every step.

Moreover, He Song did these good deeds and, for many years, did not utter a single word about it, nor did he ever behave inappropriately by taking advantage of his actions.

He only revealed these matters now that the three had sufficient cultivation and no longer needed to fear threats from others.

Such temperament,

Such patience,

is not what ordinary people can achieve.

Therefore, He Song’s personal image had risen a few notches in the hearts of Meng Guan and Wei Fan at this moment.

Meanwhile, the doubts that Meng Guan and Wei Fan harbored for so many years also finally had an answer at this moment.

The issue that had troubled them for so many years

turned out to be the act of a close friend.

And this friend was the very person who helped them reach the Golden Core Realm from behind the scenes.

Such a great kindness, Meng Guan and Wei Fan naturally could not merely accept without any acknowledgment.

Even though, after his successful breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment stage, Meng Guan unreservedly brought He Song and Wei Fan into the Thick Earth Sect,

and also provided considerable help to He Song and Wei Fan’s Foundation Establishment afterward.
