I live forever in the world of cultivation.

As for the seven functions of one mind... it can only be used for daily use. It can only be used to control puppets to make one's life more comfortable, but it cannot be used for combat.

But even so.

He Song was quite satisfied.

Three or four puppets.

If they are all puppets in the foundation building realm, even if they only have the combat power of the early stage of foundation building, it will be a great help to me.

With this help, He Song's safety will be greatly increased.

From now on, even if you are walking outside, you may be able to overwhelm others with your strength when facing other foundation builders.

After sending Fang Yu away, He Song quickly fell into the practice of the spirit puppet technique again.

This time.

Now that He Song has learned the art of controlling puppets, his retreat time has naturally been extended a lot.

You don't need to show up for trivial matters, you just need to control the puppet to deal with them.

For He Song.

It can be said that it has greatly improved the efficiency of his retreat.

There is no need to worry about being disturbed by others during retreat.

in this way.

Time began to pass slowly in He Song's constant retreat.

-----------------

In the blink of an eye.

Four years passed quietly.

During these four years.

He Song has been practicing in seclusion in his own mansion, and has not paid much attention to the affairs of Baicao Immortal Square.

But even so, with Master Ji Zhu standing in charge, nothing major happened in Baicao Immortal Square.

It's just that because this place was occupied by the Houtu Sect, all the exercises sold in the Lingji Pavilion were replaced by the Houtu Sect's exercises.

All the exercises and even the spells of the original Seven Star Sect have been completely withdrawn.

The Houtu Sect is the right path.

Within its sphere of influence, it is naturally impossible to still respect magic as before.

But because of this, many demon cultivators ran away and went to the spheres of influence of other demon sects.

The demon cultivator left Xianfang.

Naturally, it also caused some shock.

For example, the sales of the magical instruments in the Magical Instrument Pavilion are slow.

The accumulation of spiritual talismans in the Lingfu Pavilion.

Even in the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, no one cares about the Haunted Soul Grass.

As the demon cultivators left one after another, these consequences gradually began to appear.

But as the demon cultivators left one after another.

Around Baicao Immortal Square, there are also casual cultivators who are starting to practice the Houtu Sect's techniques.

At the same time, those monks who became casual cultivators from the mortal world basically practiced the techniques of Houtu Sect.

These righteous monks soon began to appear in Baicao Immortal Square.

As time continues to pass, the basic skills practiced by monks who have become casual cultivators from the mortal world have all become the skills of the Houtu Sect.

This is not because the Houtu Sect's exercises make it easier for people to introduce Qi into their bodies.

Instead, it was because the Houtu Sect began to establish its own mortal dynasty here after occupying the original sphere of influence of the Seven Star Sect.

The mortal dynasty supported by the Houtu Sect soon overthrew the mortal dynasty originally supported by the Seven Star Sect.

Immediately afterwards, the Houtu Sect's techniques, the strength of the Houtu Sect, and the treatment of the Houtu Sect were quickly promoted in the dynasty.

It is precisely because of the drastic changes in the mortal dynasty.

That's why almost all the newly born casual cultivators who have successfully introduced Qi into their bodies are all practicing the techniques of the Houtu Sect.

This is also something that a force must do after occupying a region.

Only in this way can we quickly gain harvest from this area and continue to guide the monks born in this area.

When these monks reach the late stage of Qi training, do they have to buy the broken jade powder released by the Houtu Sect to increase the speed of their cultivation?

When these monks reach the foundation-building realm, will they have to join the Houtu Sect that they have been hearing about since childhood and enjoy superior treatment?

When these monks possess special skills, do they have to join the Houtu Sect and become genius disciples that others can only look up to?

When these monks...

It can be said that after occupying this new area, the Houtu Sect has been steadily promoting the transformation of this area.

But all of this has basically nothing to do with He Song.

The implementation of these things is basically done by people in Immortal City, and he only needs to enjoy the results.

When the number of righteous monks gradually increased.

A lot of changes also occurred in Baicao Immortal Square.

The number of spiritual rice planted began to increase rapidly, and the cultivation of spiritual grass and spiritual plants was quickly put on the agenda.

Even a few years ago, the atmosphere that had always been filled with the fierce aura of the devil began to become calm and peaceful.

Although this peace and tranquility is only in comparison.

This place, even now, is far more dangerous than the homeland of Houtu Sect.

But compared to the previous era when demons were rampant, Baicao Fairy Square is much safer now.

Four years passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past four years, He Song's cultivation has taken another step forward, and the middle stage of foundation building is no longer as far away as before.

some day.

He Song, who had been sitting in the quiet room, had a flash of joy on his face at this moment.

"The Seven Killing Heavenly Fire Formation is completed!"

Looking at a formation disk carved with dense formation patterns and nine formation flags in front of him, He Song breathed a huge sigh of relief.

At the same time, there was also a huge sense of satisfaction in my heart.

Seven Killing Heavenly Fire Formation.

It is an attack formation recorded in the First Interpretation of Formation Dao.

Put in the spiritual stone to activate it, and if there are enough spiritual stones, its power can even threaten the real person building the foundation.

The Five Elements Formation recorded in the Introduction to Formation Dao, which can attack and defend, can drag monks to death in the late stage of Qi training if there are enough spiritual stones.

As recorded in the first interpretation of the Formation Dao, the Seven Killing Heavenly Fire Formation, which only serves as a killing formation, can naturally threaten Master Ji Zhu.

Although the Seven Kills Heavenly Fire Formation requires a huge amount of spiritual stones when operating at full strength, it is precisely because of this huge consumption of spiritual stones that it has the terrifying power that can threaten the foundation master.

He Song has been studying this Seven Killing Heavenly Fire Formation for several years.

He Song had already been studying for some time before building the foundation.

Now, after four more years of studying in Baicao Immortal Workshop, I finally succeeded in fully studying this formation and can arrange it at will.

In this way, He Song's methods naturally added another layer.

Having just created a Seven Killing Heavenly Fire Formation, He Song quickly stood up.

soon.

He arrived at the very center of the mansion.

He Song glanced at the mansion, which was the same as four years ago, and waved his hand.

Immediately, the formation disks and formation flags required to set up the Seven Kills Heavenly Fire Formation turned into streams of light and flew in all directions.

in a blink.

The array disk and array flag were already in place.

As He Song made spells with his fingers, a killing array with a powerful killing aura enveloped He Song's mansion at this moment.

But because He Song also set up a smoke formation in his mansion, this powerful killing aura was not leaked at all.

Everyone in the outside world was completely unaware of He Songgang's formation behavior.

Set up a killing array in the mansion where he lives.

After making himself safer in future retreats, He Song quickly left the center of the mansion.

Came to a hall.

As the aroma of tea gradually filled the air, He Song's mind flashed over what he had gained in the past four years.

During these four years.

He Song not only completely built a Seven Killing Heavenly Fire Formation.

Moreover, he also fully learned the art of qi-watching.

Learning the qi-gazing technique was not because He Song wanted to use this pupil technique to do other things.

just because of.

When he studied the spirit puppet technique, he discovered that if he wanted to refine a puppet, he had to learn a simple refining method.

This method of refining the spirit puppet requires the assistance of the Qi Watching Technique.

In the case of the hope technique, learning the refining method in the spirit puppet technique will get twice the result with half the effort.

And precisely because of this.

Since the Qi Watching Technique is a spell that He Song needs to learn.

After He Song thought about it, he naturally put the study of Qi Watching on the agenda.

It took two years.

Without stopping to study the Spirit Puppet Technique, He Song practiced the Qi Watching Technique until he could cast it at will without losing any power.

Only then did he focus entirely on the study of spiritual puppetry.

Unfortunately.

He Song is still researching the method of making puppets in the spirit puppet technique, and has not actually started making puppets.

He Song couldn't even try using the method of making puppets with people when he couldn't find the body of the foundation-building monk.

As for the method of making puppets with precious materials, He Song has been in retreat, and has been temporarily put on hold because of the lack of materials.

Neither of these two methods of refining spirit puppets can be achieved.

He Song could only do the next best thing and began to study the seven puppets he got from Cheng Yan.

It is worth mentioning that the cultivation levels of these puppets are all in the late stage of Qi training. However, due to the difference in cultivation level during life, the combat effectiveness they can exert after being refined into puppets is naturally somewhat different.

Those who cultivated the ninth level of Qi training during their lifetime can exert their strength at the seventh level of Qi training.

Those who cultivated to the eighth level of Qi training during their lifetime can exert the strength of the sixth level of Qi training.

Those who cultivated the seventh level of Qi training during their lifetime can exert their strength at the fifth level of Qi training.

To put it simply, after the corpse of a monk in the Qi training period is refined into a puppet, its strength will also drop by two small levels.

According to the records of the spirit puppet technique.

This decline in strength can be improved using refining techniques and precious materials.

The more perfect the refining technique is, the more powerful the precious materials added to the puppet will be, and the less obvious the reduction in strength of the refined puppet will be.

Obviously, these seven puppets were not carefully refined.

But He Song didn't pay much attention.

When Master Ningyin was about to leave, he refined these seven puppets out of the desire to disgust the Houtu Sect.

It's natural and normal to be careless.

If he still spends a lot of effort, then He Song may need to doubt his motives.

Put down the tea cup.

He Song looked into the distance, just about to continue practicing in seclusion, learn more spells, and make himself stronger.

But suddenly he remembered the cave he had opened outside the Houtu Sect for foundation building.

In his own cave.

It seems that there are several formations arranged, and there is also a spiritual field medicine garden among the formations.

Although he had left enough spiritual stones for those formations when he left, it has been a long time now, but he doesn't know if those formations can still operate at this moment.

Think of this.

The figure of a little turtle suddenly flashed in He Song's mind.

It seems... I even raised a little turtle?

After all these years, I wonder if that little turtle has turned into a turtle?

In addition, there are hundreds of acres of spiritual land that He Song has left within the Houtu Sect's sphere of influence.

But now, four full years have passed since He Song left Houtu Sect.

Such a long time.

Where the Hundred Acres of Spiritual Field is located, the Lost Tracing Formation should have expired, right?

I just don’t know if my hundred acres of spiritual land has been discovered.

If someone discovers it, will the Houtu Sect get involved?

These things flashed through his mind, and the expression on He Song's face changed slightly.

It seems.

It's time to go back and deal with all these things.

As time goes by, if all the missing trace arrays that he once arranged dissipate due to the exhaustion of the spirit stones, the spiritual field shrouded by the lost trace formations will be revealed.

I'm afraid it will really cause some unnecessary trouble.

The hundreds of acres of spiritual fields that he has arranged in hidden places will likely be discovered by others, which will lead to an investigation by the Houtu Sect.

By that time.

Although I definitely won’t be able to investigate myself, I’m not afraid of ten thousand, I’m just afraid of the unexpected.

It's better to go there yourself.

Regardless of whether those spiritual fields were discovered by people from the Houtu Sect.

He still needs to completely cover up the more than one hundred acres of spiritual land and the cave he opened, so that he can sit back and relax.

Thinking of this, He Song suddenly had no intention of continuing to retreat.

His strength is not bad now.

Common attack spells include earth dragon spells.

Spells that can be used as trump cards include Thick Earth Seal and Yagami Thorn.

The top grade offensive weapon has the black tiger seal.

The top-grade defensive weapon is the Blue Water Turtle Armor Shield.

At the same time, he also has the Blood Escape Technique, a very fast escape technique that can burst out at any time.

Other auxiliary spells are useless.

With so many foundation-building methods, He Song's combat effectiveness at this moment is probably the best among the monks in the early stages of foundation-building.

When facing the monks in the middle stage of foundation building, even if He Song couldn't defeat them, He Songruo could leave at any time if he wanted to.

And that's why.

Now that his own strength is no longer what it used to be, He Song is no longer as hesitant as before about leaving the Immortal Fang where he is guarding and going to work elsewhere.

Do it when you think of it.

With a thought in his mind, He Song controlled a puppet to go to the gate of his mansion.

Immediately, He Song left an instruction at the core of the puppet.

Every once in a while, the puppet will speak.

"Master has orders to come back next month."

In this way, even if He Song has left, the puppet will still say this sentence every other hour if there is this instruction.

With these words, Fang Yu, who comes to report once a month, can be dismissed.

Even if Fang Yu felt suspicious.

He didn't dare to make mistakes.

The power of the foundation-building master is not something that a monk in the Qi-training stage can withstand.

After making preparations to leave Baicao Immortal Square, He Song thought for a while and put the Seven Kills Heavenly Fire Formation in his mansion into his storage bag.

If you encounter an enemy while out this time.

With this Seven Kills Heavenly Fire Formation in his possession, he can have one more trump card.

After taking the Seven Kills Heavenly Fire Formation with him, He Song thought, and his whole body immediately escaped into the ground, and silently moved towards the outside of Baicao Immortal Square.

Travel dozens of miles along the way.

After completely staying away from Baicao Xianfang.

He Song's figure turned into a ray of water-blue light and headed towards the Houtu Sect's original sphere of influence.

The Baicao Immortal Square where he was located was tens of thousands of miles away from the mountain gate of Houtu Sect.

Even for a monk at the Foundation Establishment Realm, it would take more than ten days to move forward with the Escape Light or sail away in a spirit boat.

This is why He Song doesn't go back to Houtu Sect once a year to harvest all his spiritual fields and medicinal gardens.

This takes too long.

He would rather reopen the spiritual fields near Baicao Fairy Square to grow elixirs and rice.

I don't want to travel so far every year and waste a month traveling back and forth.

perhaps.

After returning this time, it will be time for him to open up a spiritual field near Baicao Fairy Square.

-----------------

Fly all the way.

Time flies by.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed.

During these ten days, He Song did not encounter any danger.

Even if he just left Baicao Immortal Square, he transformed into a light and walked away.

The rest of the time, he controls the spirit boat to move forward.

But even so, He Song did not encounter any danger even when the spirit boat was more conspicuous.

When one's cultivation has reached the foundation-building stage, the level of safety is naturally a level higher than that of monks in the Qi-training stage.

In the past, He Song was only in the Qi training stage due to his low cultivation level.

When traveling, you can only use the earth escape technique to move forward.

But now He Song has reached the foundation building realm.

The strength is much stronger than before.

Under such circumstances, even if He Song controls the spirit boat in the sky, its safety is guaranteed.

especially.

He Song himself is still an elder of Houtu Sect.

And the place it is located is also within the sphere of influence of the Houtu Sect.

Under such circumstances, He Song's safety will naturally be improved.

But even so.

He Song did not relax his vigilance.

Although the cultivation of the Foundation Establishment Realm seems to have surpassed that of many people, in the world of immortal cultivation, it is just the starting point of the path to immortality.

If he didn't stay vigilant at all times, he might not be able to protect He Song with his cultivation at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Now, it was just because he was within the Houtu Sect's sphere of influence that he could relax a little and control the spirit boat on his way.

If it were another dangerous place, He Song might still be able to escape underground and travel underground just like he did during his Qi training period.

Although it will be much slower if you do that.

But it's better to be safe.

now.

More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

He Song's figure finally returned to the mountain gate of Houtu Sect at this moment.

Arrive near the mountain gate of Houtu Sect.

He Song did not enter the mountain gate of Houtu Sect.

Now, he still has the responsibility of guarding Baicao Immortal Square. If he returns to the clan rashly, he is afraid that he will be questioned soon.

Instead of exposing the fact that he is not guarding Xianfang.

It is better not to enter the mountain gate, but to finish the things you need to do on this trip outside the mountain gate, and then quietly return to Baicao Fairy Square.

In this way, it will naturally not attract the attention of others.

Pass by the mountain gate.

He Song quickly followed the direction in his memory and headed towards the places where the spiritual fields he had opened up were located.

soon.

He Song used the mountain-escape technique, hid his figure underground, and found the location of one of the spiritual fields he had opened.
