Chapter 236: Chapter 228: Digging Deeper

However, after some thought, He Song let go of his concerns.

He had developed five medicine gardens and a ten-acre spirit field several hundred miles away from the Herbs Immortal Workshop.

The five medicine gardens, as well as the spirit field, were all cloaked in Smoke Arrays.

Under the protection of the Smoke Arrays, He Song could hide in the medicine gardens or the spirit field without having to establish a hidden cave mansion nearby.

In doing so, he could save himself some trouble.

Using the medicine gardens and spirit field as his hidden cave mansion.

Later, all He Song needed to do was to send necessary supplies to the medicine gardens and the spirit field, and they could be used as hidden cave mansions.

It was simply perfect.

After such thoughts flashed through his mind, He Song was no longer apprehensive.

His gaze swept around, noting the trends of the surrounding mountain ranges, rivers, and lakes.

He memorized these surroundings, so that when he did need to flee, he would be more familiar with them.

As he continuously scanned his surroundings and memorized the environment, the aqua blue escape light He Song turned into quickly disappeared into the distant sky without attracting anyone’s attention.

For several days,

He Song headed west, continuously traveling towards the direction of the Pure Yin Sect.

At the same time, he kept making mental notes of everything he encountered.

Until today, several days later,

the aqua blue escape light dissipated next to a boundary monument, and He Song’s figure appeared there after the escape light disappeared.

This boundary monument was made from spirit mine mining. Although it was not very valuable, it was extremely solid and contained spirit

One side was inscribed with the words ‘Thick Earth Sect’.

On the other side were the words ‘Pure Yin Sect’.

If He Song guessed correctly, this was the border between the two factions.

Arriving here,

meant that He Song was about to leave the scope of the Thick Earth Sect’s power and enter the Pure Yin Sect’s territory.

His gaze swept over the boundary monument,

and looked at the huge mortal city in the distance, He Song’s thoughts moved, and the fluctuation of his cultivation suddenly changed from the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment to the Foundation Establishment Early Stage. After hiding his cultivation to the Foundation Establishment Early Stage,

He Song pondered for a moment, and then transformed into an aqua blue escape light once again, shooting into the sky and racing towards the territory of the Pure Yin Sect. This departure, lasted several days.

During these days, He Song observed the ground below from the sky,

and finally, today, he found a suitable place for establishing a hidden cave mansion.

This location was far from the surrounding Immortal Pavilions and Immortal Cities.

Very few cultivators passed by this area.

From the various Immortal Cities around, regardless of the route that Qi Refining cultivators needed to pass,

or the trajectory of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators flying in the sky, none of them had anything to do with this place.

As a result, the number of cultivators who would come here was naturally scarce.

This, however, perfectly met the conditions He Song required for establishing a hidden cave mansion here.

Because it was a hidden cave mansion, there would be no Array Skills covering it when He Song was not living there.

With the Smoke Array’s activation requiring five hundred spirit stones per year, He Song, being strapped for cash, naturally wouldn’t spend spirit stones in this manner.

The establishment of a hidden cave mansion, required primarily seclusion and secrecy.

No unexpected visits from cultivators, and no accidental discovery by mortals.

Aside from this, there were no other requirements.

When He Song truly needed to use this cave mansion, he would make all preparations.

Whether it was Array Skills, living necessities, or even essential items for cultivation, they would all be brought by He Song himself.

As such,

He Song didn’t need to seek some blessed land for his hidden cave mansion. Seclusion and secrecy would suffice.

Now, He Song had found the first suitable location for a hidden cave mansion,

and after observing it for a while and thinking it feasible, he quickly found a stone mountain, and used his mana to forcibly create a tunnel in the solid mountain.

He used his mana to hollow out the rocks, then placed them in his storage bag, and continued like this, going forward.

When he reached the belly of the mountain, where rocks surrounded him from all sides, He Song turned downward, and began using his mana to cut, opening up a passageway beneath his feet in the rocks.

The passageway went straight down and continuously extended downwards.

Deeper and deeper, growing even deeper.

Only when it had reached more than a thousand meters underground did He Song give up on going further down.

Currently, He Song’s cultivation was at the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

When he used the Mountain Escaping Skill to tunnel into the earth, the depth was only about two hundred meters.

Standing on flat ground, he extended his divine sense into the earth constantly; the depth his divine sense could explore was only just over a hundred meters.

But it should be noted that He Song’s divine sense was half stronger than ordinary cultivators.

Even so, his probing into the ground was still only this deep.

If other ordinary cultivators were to come, the depth they could investigate would likely be even less.

Now, building his hidden cave mansion more than a thousand meters underground, even a Foundation Establishment completion cultivator might not be able to sense his presence, right?

If he were to use the stones he had stored in his storage bag earlier to block the passageway, even a Golden Elixir Master might not know that he was here without any specific target.

This way, the secrecy of this hidden cave mansion would be self-evident.

After delving thousands of meters underground.

He Song activated his mana, starting to excavate his cave mansion.

Soon.

A spacious cave mansion with various fully-equipped rooms was quickly excavated by He Song.

A quiet chamber for closed-door cultivation.

A living room for daily relaxation.

A place to practice skills for daily training.

An Amulet Making Room for studying spirit amulets every day.

A tea room for daily tea drinking.

As for the kitchen and other necessary spaces, He Song also excavated them accordingly.

Additionally, since the cave mansion was deep underground, He Song also dug many ventilation holes to prevent a lack of air from entering.

As for water.

He Song did not introduce running water.

He was afraid that the cave mansion he had worked so hard to excavate would be flooded with water.

That wouldn’t be fun.

If he really stays here in the future, it would not be too late to introduce running water.

After completely excavating the cave mansion, He Song left a tracking mark inside.

This way, no matter where He Song was, as long as he communicated with this tracking mark, he could find the location of this cave mansion. Afterward, he left many things inside the cave mansion as well.

Spirit amulets, amulet making materials.

Spirit rice.

Spiritual plant seeds.

Spirit stones.

And so on.

Those supplies he had bought for ten thousand spirit stones at the Herbs Immortal Workshop before.

As long as he thinks he might need them in the future.

He left a share of everything in the cave mansion.

This way, even if there were unexpected events, he could rely on these things to hold on for a while.

After doing all this.

He Song used the stone slabs he had previously cut using mana, to meticulously seal the entrance of his cave mansion.

As for the stones he had cut while excavating the cave mansion, they had been kept in his storage bag all along, waiting to be destroyed after leaving this place.

Using stone slabs, he sealed the entrance of the cave mansion piece by piece and then exited.

He Song then sealed the outermost part of the entrance with a large rock that did not differ much from the surrounding environment.

In this way.

Nobody, be it cultivators or ordinary people, would think that there is a hidden cave mansion opened by a Foundation Establishment Master underneath them, even if they were standing right above He Song’s secret cave mansion.

Moreover, this place was already remote with little human activity, and it was a rock mountain without any value to stay.

Therefore, neither cultivators nor ordinary people would typically stay in this place.

As such.

The hidden cave mansion opened by He Song became extremely safe.

Having done all of that and transforming into aqua blue escape light, he inspected the surroundings, only to find out that there were no errors or omissions.

Only then did He Song rise to the sky, turn into escape light, and head towards the distance.

This place.

It was the first hidden cave mansion built by He Song.

In the future, if anything major happens, he can stay here for a long time, and then leave the cave mansion when he thinks it’s appropriate. If after leaving the mansion, the major event was ongoing.

He could just return to the cave mansion.

If it had already ended.

He Song can come out of the cave mansion and embark on the path of immortality again.

But.

He wonders what the outside world will look like by that time.

Having left a hidden cave mansion within the territorial range of the Pure Yin Sect and recorded the surrounding environment, He Song thought for a moment.

He quickly changed direction and headed south of the Pure Yin Sect. freewebn(o)vel

To the south of the Pure Yin Sect.

It was the territory of the Sun Faction.

This was a Nascent Soul Upper Sect, occupying a much larger area than Golden Core Sects, like the Thick Earth Sect, Pure Yin Sect, and Golden Sword Sect.

Much, much larger.

Under such circumstances.

He Song naturally would not miss out on the idea of opening a hidden cave mansion within the territory of the Sun Faction.

The Sun Faction was a Nascent Soul Upper Sect.

The safety level within their territory was naturally beyond comparison with Golden Core Sects like the Thick Earth Sect.

Opening a cave mansion within the Sun Faction’s territory would naturally guarantee safety.

However, he did not have a map of the Sun Faction’s territory, nor did he know where the immortal cities and workshops within their territory were located.

As a result, he naturally had no way of knowing where in the territory of the Sun Faction could be suitable for opening a hidden cave mansion.

However, this did not trouble He Song.

According to his plan.

He only needed to leave the territory of the Pure Yin Sect and enter the Sun Faction’s territory.

Then, he could just arbitrarily look for an immortal city under the Sun Faction’s jurisdiction and purchase a map of the Sun Faction there.

As long as he acquired the map.

All immortal cities and workshops within the territory of the Sun Faction would naturally fall within He Song’s sight.

By then.

As long as He Song personally searched, he should be able to find one, or even several suitable places for opening a hidden cave mansion relatively quickly.

Upon thinking this, He Song accelerated his speed, and the aqua blue escape light quickly traversed in the sky, yet it didn’t attract much attention..
