Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 623: Chapter 513 Lord Feiyu_2

“`

“Since I’m here, I should settle in.”

In Zichuan Prefecture Government, whether the other Golden Core Families had implicitly acknowledged this and saw the Zhao Family as their representative, or simply hadn’t had time to send an invitation, was unknown.

But regardless, the necessary probing and confrontations couldn’t be avoided.

If He Songzhen acted in such a way, the Golden Core Families within the Zichuan Prefecture Government might misunderstand something.

By then, the loss might truly outweigh the gain.

With this thought in mind, He Song’s mind moved, and the Low-grade Spiritual Tool Starfall Bead was instantly summoned, a thin barrier of light enveloping him in an instant.

After ensuring his safety, He Song’s mind moved again.

Wrapped in his divine sense, the storage bag from the front gate of the mansion quietly appeared before him.

Thanks to the protection of the Starfall Bead, He Song swiftly sent his divine sense into the storage bag, scanning through every item inside with his divine sense.

After confirming there was no danger in the storage bag, He Song then carefully checked its contents.

There weren’t many items inside the storage bag.

An invitation.

One thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones.

Beyond that, there was nothing else.

The invitation, of course, was from the person from the Zhao Family outside, as mentioned earlier, inviting He Song to a banquet hosted by the Zhao Family’s Golden Elixir cultivator.

The invitation was of a simple style with spirit Qi flowing through it, not resembling mortal things.

If an ordinary Qi Condensation Cultivator were to obtain such an item and sell it, they could probably become rich overnight.

But for a Golden Elixir Master like He Song, it was nothing special.

Removing the invitation from the storage bag and scanning it, He Song immediately understood.

On the invitation, the Zhao Family’s Golden Elixir Master invited He Song to a banquet tonight.

The location was in one of the mountain ranges occupied by the Zhao Family; when He Song arrived, the Golden Elixir Master of the Zhao Family would personally come forth to welcome him.

Even the matter of the one thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones as a meeting gift was written there.

Although one thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones wasn’t a large amount, the fact that a meeting gift was offered showed that this Zhao Family Golden Elixir cultivator was quite sincere about meeting He Song.

Putting down the invitation in his hand, He Song’s mind flicked through the few mountains and lakes he had seen upon entering the Zichuan Prefecture Government, and he had a rough understanding of where the Zhao Family was located.

As a Golden Core Family, the Zhao Family had claimed one of the few mountains and lakes within the Zichuan Prefectural Government for themselves.

In the state mansion, whether it was the Cloud State Mansion that He Song first saw, or the Zichuan Prefecture Government he was seeing now, there were mountains and lakes within each state mansion.

These places were drastically different from the wide expanses of building architectures inside the Immortal State Mansion.

Inside the Immortal State Mansion, even Foundation Establishment True Persons could only live among the vast buildings, not differing much from where other cultivators lived.

Besides having a larger and quieter residence, Foundation Establishment True Persons in the Immortal State Mansion actually didn’t have many privileges.

But it was different for a Golden Elixir Master.

In the Immortal State Mansion, there were at most just a few Golden Elixir Masters.

And these few Golden Elixir Masters naturally lived in the few mountains and lakes inside the Immortal State Mansion.

Whether it was what He Song saw in the Cloud State Mansion or heard about in the Zichuan Prefecture Government, there were numerous buildings erected around the few mountains and lakes.

Such places, away from worldly noise, a Family occupied a land of their own.

They could truly be described as an earthly paradise.

Living in such a place signified one’s identity and status.

Completely unlike an ordinary cultivator.

The fact that the Zhao Family could occupy a mountain in Zichuan Prefecture Government represented their power and heritage.

Nevertheless, this wasn’t surprising to He Song.

He had visited many Immortal State Mansions and had seen many such scenes in those places.

Although this was the first time he received such an invitation from a Golden Core Family to attend a banquet at their residence, with the power of the Golden Elixir within him, He Song naturally wouldn’t feel intimidated.

Instead, knowing the Zhao Family’s location, he simply nodded, casually accepted the matter, and then sent away the person from Foundation Establishment who was still waiting respectfully for He Song’s response at the mansion gate.

After sending the other party away.

“`

He Song continued sipping his tea, having gained a rough idea about the invitation.

It seemed that just as he had speculated, within the Zichuan Prefecture Government, the Golden Core Family had put forth the Zhao family as their representative to test He Song.

For the forthcoming period, it was unlikely that any other Golden Core Family would come knocking at his door.

The invitation from the Zhao family was very clear.

They invited He Song to a banquet tonight.

If the Zhao family had not reached an understanding with the other Golden Core Families, they would probably wish for He Song to head to the Zhao residence immediately to meet with the Zhao Golden Core.

Why else would they leave such a vast window of time, potentially giving other Golden Core Families an opportunity to intervene?

Realizing this, He Song naturally had a foundation for his expectations.

Now,

all he needed to do was wait until nightfall and then make his way to the location of the Zhao family’s mountains and rivers.

With this thought, He Song continued to enjoy his tea.

Until night fell.

It was then that He Song gracefully left his mansion, his figure shifting and transforming into a streak of golden tunneling light, heading toward the mountains and rivers where the Zhao family resided.

As he traveled, He Song, high in the sky, skimmed his gaze over the landscape below, and a hint of surprise quickly flashed in his eyes.

From his height, looking down upon the Zhao family’s territory, the place was brilliantly lit.

Even at night, it shone as bright as day, very luminous.

Within the brightly lit Zhao Family Residence, many Zhao cultivators, upon seeing the arrival of He Song, bent their bodies in a salute.

He Song’s glance swept over them, and he was very astonished.

Yet, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed a dozen streaks of tunneling light emerging from below, heading toward him.

At the same time, a Gold Core aura, along with the auras of more than a dozen Foundation Establishment Masters, rapidly emerged, aligning with the arrival of these dozen tunneling lights within He Song’s divine sense.

Witnessing this scene, He Song, who was already surprised by the multitude of Zhao family cultivators saluting him below, became even more amazed.

This kind of reception, where an entire Golden Core Family turns out to welcome a guest,

was something He Song had never seen before.

Could it be that the Golden Snake Sect’s Golden Core Families are all this courteous?

Displaying such hospitality to every unfamiliar Golden Elixir that comes visiting?

With doubt in his mind, He Song discreetly checked the various life-saving treasures on his person, ensuring he could trigger protective measures at any moment, and only then did he slightly relax.

Just at that moment, the dozen or so tunneling lights that were approaching him also arrived in front of He Song.

“Fellow Daoist has come from afar, truly bringing glory to my Zhao Family. I am Fei Hu, and I bid you welcome,” said the only Golden Elixir Master among the dozen tunneling lights, who immediately greeted He Song with a clasped hands and introduced himself after seeing him.

It is customary for Golden Elixir Masters introducing themselves to each other to only mention their dharma titles, and True Monarch Fei Hu did just that.

After True Monarch Fei Hu finished speaking, the dozen or so Foundation Establishment True Persons behind him also took this moment to greet He Song and introduced themselves in turn.

Despite his lingering confusion, since He Song had already arrived and they had introduced themselves, he naturally wouldn’t do anything inappropriate.

Therefore, when the dozen or so Foundation Establishment True Persons had finished their introductions, He Song also immediately returned a slight bow to the people in front of him.

“I am Fei Yu, and I extend my greetings to Fellow Daoist Fei Hu and everyone present,” said He Song.

“It is my first visit to this esteemed place, and I am afraid I might be imposing. I hope Fellow Daoist Fei Hu won’t take offense,” He Song said.

He Song did not reveal his real dharma title but instead used the name Fei Yu to completely conceal his identity.

This concealment of identity was not so much a deliberate act on He Song’s part,

but rather because the Zhao family’s grand welcome had indeed left him with some suspicions in his heart.

Therefore, he chose to keep his identity hidden.

If the situation turned unfavorable later on, he wanted to ensure that he could make his escape smoothly.

After all, even if True Monarch Fei Hu learns that he has fled and curses him, what would it have to do with Master Cang Song?
