Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation
Chapter 1388 - Chapter 1388 Chapter 896 Coronation Ceremony

Chapter 1388: Chapter 896: Coronation Ceremony Chapter 1388: Chapter 896: Coronation Ceremony Such a loss.

It was absolutely a colossal setback.

It could even widen the gap between He Song and other Nascent Soul cultivators by decades.

Under such circumstances, He Song naturally wouldn’t hesitate to arm Qing Feng to the teeth.

Qing Feng, after all, was his trump card,

and a vital way for him to obtain resources and enhance his own power.

At the same time, it was a powerful force in which he had invested a large amount of resources.

Moreover, the safety of Qing Feng, compared to He Song who from then on would always remain in safe territory,

was also fraught with great uncertainty.

In such a situation,

and with He Song able to ensure his own safety without threat,

it seemed only natural for him to hand over some of his life-preserving treasures to Qing Feng, greatly enhancing Qing Feng’s ability to survive.

However,

just when He Song was entrusting Qing Feng with many treasures for preserving life or escaping danger,

the light on his Sound Transmission Amulet faintly flickered.

The anomaly with the Sound Transmission Amulet immediately drew He Song’s attention.

The next moment,

after handing over numerous items for life preservation and escape to Qing Feng,

He Song opened his Sound Transmission Amulet and took out a thin piece of paper from within.

His gaze swept across the densely packed, powerful characters on the paper,

and an expression of joy swiftly replaced the previously calm look on He Song’s face.

This message had come from Meng Guan.

In the letter,

Meng Guan personally stated that the former Yi Yangzi’s health had been declining from year to year.

After the Righteous and Demonic Great War had ended, although he had used many treasures to extend his lifespan,

the effects of these treasures had been depleted in the recent years.

After all, it had been over a hundred years since the end of that Great War,

and so Yi Yangzi’s lifespan had naturally come to an end.

According to Meng Guan,

after the previous Yi Yangzi personally passed on his title to himself,

he had since departed from the Sun Faction to reside in a picturesque location far from the Faction’s influence, wishing to spend his final moments and be interred in a land not his own.

On this matter, neither Meng Guan nor the others in the Sun Faction had any objections.

The Sun Faction was a Nascent Soul Force,

but the environment around it was complex and fraught.

If the previous Yi Yangzi were to be buried there, and should the Sun Faction fall one day, even the remains could potentially face other indignities.

Such an outcome was something neither the former Yi Yangzi nor the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Sun Faction wished to see.

Under these circumstances,

Yi Yangzi, approaching the end of his life, thus left the place to build a cave mansion in some secluded area where no one could find him,

to live out the remainder of his life–indeed, a very normal course of action.

After all, if the location was secluded enough, the chances of someone finding the cave mansion would be significantly reduced.

He Song, during his time around the Sun Faction, had never heard news of such a Nascent Soul Cave Abode emerging.

As such,

the former Yi Yangzi’s decision could actually be considered the right choice.

At least if the Sun Faction fell,

his cave mansion would not be likely to be disturbed.

In terms of security, it admittedly was the more safeguarded option.

And now,

within the Sun Faction,

as the former Yi Yangzi took his leave,

and the new Yi Yangzi ascended to power,

the current Yi Yangzi would naturally step forward and begin engaging with the surrounding Nascent Soul cultivators and Nascent Soul Forces.

Meng Guan informed that in ten years, he would hold a ceremony marking the new Yi Yangzi’s ascension.

At that time, he hoped that He Song would go to the Sun Faction and join him in this event.

Moreover, Meng Guan promised in the letter

that if He Song returned to the Sun Faction, he could elevate He Song’s status within the Faction from a Guest Elder to a Supreme Elder.

At that time, having two Nascent Souls within the Sun Faction might make other forces even more cautious.

However, He Song hesitated over this.

The position of the Sun Faction’s Supreme Elder might seem appealing, but it was just a title after all.

Although based on the relationship between Meng Guan and He Song, the Sun Faction would undoubtedly offer He Song a very generous reward,

enabling him to advance more rapidly in his Nascent Soul Realm cultivation.

Yet, as a Nascent Soul Guest Elder of the Treasure Pavilion, could he really take on the role of a Supreme Elder of a Nascent Soul Force?

He Song was somewhat unsure about this.

After all, according to the plans previously outlined by the Treasure Pavilion,

Nascent Soul Guests like him were mostly expected to be groomed into Pavilion Masters of the Treasure Pavilion Branches.

And assuming the role of a Pavilion Master at a Treasure Pavilion Branch while also serving as a Supreme Elder for another force seemed highly unlikely.

The Treasure Pavilion’s principle was to only engage in trading and not take part in the disputes of various Sects.

However, if He Song really accepted the offer and truly became a Supreme Elder of the Sun Faction,

should the Sun Faction face trouble in the future, would he intervene or not?

What if the Sun Faction used his status as a Pavilion Master at a Treasure Pavilion Branch to oppress others outside?

These were all possibilities that were certainly not improbable.

Therefore, based on He Song’s own speculation, the Treasure Pavilion would likely not permit him to become the Supreme Elder of another force.
