Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation - Chapter 639

Chapter 639: Chapter 521 Golden Sand Mine_2

She could go so far.

He Song thought to himself.

And in front of him, An Ning, after hearing what He Song had said, also showed a fleeting expression of joy on her face.

“So, this is what Golden Spirit Sand is.”

“However, I’m not sure if this Golden Spirit Sand is of any use to you, sir.”

“If it is useful, there should be some left inside the Gold Sand Spirit Cave. As long as you go there, sir, you will definitely find something.”

“I don’t have much use for this Golden Spirit Sand myself. If you need it, sir, feel free to take it.”

“Besides, during the years I have presided over this place, I occasionally heard that people brought back other treasures from the Gold Sand Spirit Cave.”

“But there were also those who entered and disappeared within the mine, their fate unknown.”

“I am not sure if these stories are true or false, but if you, sir, wish to explore there, I could certainly guide you.”

“I believe that with your cultivation and my assistance at your side, we should be able to thoroughly investigate this abandoned mine.”

“The treasures within should be yours for the taking.”

Without looking at the Golden Spirit Sand on the table, An Ning immediately focused her attention on the abandoned mine near the Jinsha Immortal Lane.

Over the past many years, she had already developed a strong interest in this mine.

It was just that her own cultivation was still shallow.

Even though she had reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, without the help of others, she dared not delve too deep.

That’s why she had repeatedly tried to invite He Song here, to join her in exploring the mine.

In her eyes, He Song’s cultivation was profound, at least at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, or even at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Realm.

With such strength, if she, an Early Foundation Establishment Cultivator, were to accompany him, they would likely be able to turn danger into safety should they encounter it.

Her safety would also be better assured.

With the two of them traveling together, not only would she be able to witness the situation inside the mine with her own eyes, but she might also gain some opportunities.

Not to mention anything else.

An Ning truly did inherit Su Qian’s teachings.

He Song had once reminded Su Qian to be cautious in all matters.

And An Ning had fully embraced Su Qian’s caution, with a faint sign that the student might surpass the master.

Just like now, knowing her own strength was insufficient, she chose to invite He Song to explore the mine with her. It was a display of An Ning’s prudence.

If she weren’t cautious, An Ning might have long since ventured alone into the mine to scavenge for treasures. She wouldn’t have waited until now.

He Song nodded inwardly in response to this.

But he didn’t respond to An Ning’s words.

Golden Spirit Sand was no longer of use to He Song now.

A cultivator who had reached the Golden Core Realm and was already capable of refining Lower-grade Spiritual Tools in artifact refinement, He Song no longer had a great need for this kind of spirit mine, which was used to refine high-quality or top-grade magical equipment.

As for collecting some to sell for spirit stones, that wasn’t something he planned to do either.

He Song was not in need of the spirit stones that would come from selling such trifles.

One could say that the abandoned mine near the Jinsha Immortal Lane no longer held any meaning for He Song to enter.

However, He Song felt a slight stir in his heart at An Ning’s words.

The Gold Sand Spiritual Vein had been abandoned for a long time. Although loose cultivators still visited to explore it from time to time, even managing to find and bring back treasures, there were also those who mysteriously died within the mine.

Yet, compared to other places, the level of concealment here was actually quite good.

If He Song set up an Array Skills within this abandoned mine and then went into seclusive cultivation, this place would likely become his secluded cultivation place.

Moreover, the tunnels in such a mine would definitely crisscross in every direction, like a maze.

If He Song were to cultivate in seclusion here, as long as he became familiar with it, this mine, akin to a labyrinth, might increase his chances of escaping successfully in the future.

After all, He Song, dwelling in the mine for a long time, would be very familiar with the interior.

In times of escape, he could certainly use the mine’s complex terrain to hinder his enemies’ pursuit.

“`

If he arranged arrays at various key points, He Song could easily escape even if several Golden Elixir Masters came to besiege him.

At this thought, He Song actually developed a bit of interest in this abandoned mine.

However, it was not the treasures within that caught An Ning’s speculation.

Instead, it was the complex terrain inside the mine that intrigued him.

Although the Golden Core Cultivators’ divine sense can cover an extremely wide range, as long as He Song set up several arrays at key locations within the mine,

even if they were just Foundation Establishment arrays, they could block the divine sense probes of Golden Core Cultivators.

With the obstruction from the mountains and earth, the divine sense of a Golden Core Cultivator would probably not be very effective.

Under the premise of divine sense being blocked,

the exceedingly complex terrain within the mine would naturally provide He Song with better cover.

Additionally, if the mine was extremely deep, it would naturally make He Song’s presence even harder to detect.

Thinking this, He Song looked at An Ning in front of him and then nodded directly.

“Since you are so fixated on this mine, I shall go with you to investigate it,”

“However, let me be blunt. If the opportunity we find is useful to you, I will naturally not be stingy,”

“But if there’s something I desire, I will naturally take it.”

“Do you understand?”

With the arrival of He Song’s voice, An Ning, who had little anticipation for opportunity, immediately nodded vigorously.

Originally, she had been prepared to give up everything she could find in the mine.

After all, having He Song accompany her meant her journey would no longer pose great danger.

With such an opportunity before her, allowing her to learn about possible fortunes without worrying about danger, she naturally wouldn’t think about anything else.

But to her surprise, although He Song had made his point about speaking bluntly beforehand, his words implied he was not intent on monopolizing everything within the mine.

In fact, He Song would not be stingy with the things she needed.

Only the items that He Song needed would he take for himself.

By that logic,

wouldn’t it mean that anything He Song was not interested in, as long as she could use it, would end up in her hands?

Such a good fortune was something she had never considered before.

All along, she thought it sufficient if He Song would take her to the mine.

As for what treasures could be harvested in the mine, she was not very concerned.

What she valued was the process of exploration within the mine.

This process could give her more experience and a higher chance of survival when facing other opportunities later on.

This was what she truly desired.

And now, as An Ning nodded again and again,

He Song also nodded and spoke.

“Take this Golden Spirit Sand. I’m not particularly interested in it,”

“As for the matter of exploring the mine, let’s talk about it in a few days,”

“After the long journey here, I might as well spend the next few days exploring this Immortal Pavilion to my heart’s content.”

“Over the years, I have mingled in various Immortal State Mansions and Immortal Cities, and it has been a long time since I last stepped foot in such a small Immortal Pavilion.”

Concerning the exploration of the mine, He Song was not in a rush.

Ever since his last visit to the Flying Cloud Immortal Mansion, where he brought An Ning, the An Family, and the members of the Lin Family to the vicinity of Blue Moon Immortal City, He Song indeed had not entered any Immortal Pavilion for a long time.

Now, as years had passed, He Song suddenly felt the urge to properly wander around this Jinsha Immortal Lane.

Perhaps, in this Immortal Pavilion, there were figures like Meng Guan or Wei Fan, who could rise meteorically.

Perhaps, in this Immortal Pavilion, there were cultivators like Su Qian or An Ning, who could be of use to He Song.

He Song, who had not set foot in an Immortal Pavilion for a long time, always had a bit of nostalgia for it, as it had nurtured countless cultivators.

After all, he himself had come out step by step from the Immortal Pavilion.
