Fortunately.
He Song had already discussed with him before March what the scene would look like should Master Cheng Shan leave and chaos erupts in Immortal Pavilion.
Now that Master Cheng Shan has indeed suddenly departed, his mind won’t be disturbed.
That’s because he and He Song had made full preparations over these three months.
Spirit amulets.
Artifacts.
Mana robes.
He hadn’t previously prepared these things for magical battles.
He had encountered no danger in the Immortal Pavilion, so he initially thought it unnecessary to invest resources in these items.
However, when He Song expounded on the pros and cons in great detail, he gritted his teeth and set aside some for himself.
Now, having just recently advanced to the Qi-refining late stage, his combat power had become rather strong.
He had also prepared some spirit amulets specially designed for magic battles.
In this way, even though Master Cheng Shan suddenly left, their safety wasn’t a worry.
“I ask that you retreat back into the courtyard. Leave the outside matters to me. If any danger arises…please use the Earth Tunneling Amulet to leave.” Thinking of the artifacts and spirit amulets on him, Wei Fan spoke, his face showing a calm expression.
During these three months, he’d not only purchased artifacts, spirit amulets, and mana robes for himself, enhancing his own fighting strength, but he also purchased two life-saving spirit amulets.
Earth Tunneling Amulet.
The Earth Tunneling Amulet is a high-quality spirit amulet. After use, it enables you to move ten miles underground in a flash, enough to escape any Qi-refining stage cultivator pursuing you.
Wei Fan prepared one such life-saving spirit amulet for himself.
At the same time, he lent one to He Song.
Although he himself was a cultivator in the Qi-refining late stage, and those living around him were also at the same stage.
However, better be safe than sorry.
Having been good friends with He Song for so long, he had also become more careful.
In case he gets overpowered and the Qi-refining late stage cultivators around him prove unreliable, with these two Earth Tunneling Amulets on them, they could still quickly escape, perhaps spare their lives, and be able to make a comeback.
That’s why these two Earth Tunneling Amulets were their ultimate trump cards.
“Okay, Brother Wei, be careful.” Nodding, He Song didn’t retort and directly sought refuge in the courtyard, practicing the Breath Concealment Formulas, letting his own breath dissipate into nothingness.
From the outside, he wouldn’t be much help, and it might even make him a target for Evil Cultivators.
A Qi-refining early-stage cultivator lived in the home of a Qi-refining late-stage cultivator.
In the eyes of the Evil Cultivator, the relationship between the two must be extraordinary.
If he were to be captured and used to threaten Wei Fan, it probably would be counterproductive.
Rather than being counterproductive, it’s better to hide in the small courtyard, use the Breath Concealment Formulas to pretend to be non-existent. That way, Wei Fan can confront the crisis more composed.
On the loft.
As soon as Wei Fan put away the tea set, he felt He Song’s breath rapidly disappear within the small courtyard.
Sensing this, Wei Fan’s expression remained unchanged, but he commended He Song in his heart.
His friend was not deeply cultivated, but when it came to caution, he was one of the top. At least among the people he knew, He Song was the most cautious.
Wei Fan had felt the benefits of being cautious.
If not for He Song’s cautiousness, his spirit amulets and artifacts would probably still be the ones he used during his Qi-refining mid stage.
But now?
The spirit amulets and artifacts on him, even the mana robes, were all now those used in the Qi-refining late stage.
In this way, even if his cultivation is only at seventh-tier Qi Refining, he wouldn’t need to worry about his safety when facing other Qi-refining late stage cultivators.
It could be said that, if it weren’t for He Song’s cautiousness, he might not be as calm as he is now.
Not to mention patiently waiting at home.
This waiting.
Lasted an entire night.
This night, Immortal Pavilion was as quiet as before.
As if Master Cheng Shan’s departure hadn’t caused much turbulence.
However, the suddenly rising prices of the spirit amulets, artifacts, and mana robes in the Immortal Pavilion the next morning made the sensitive cultivators feel something was afoot.
Some uninformed Loose cultivators grumbled, saying that the Immortal Pavilion was shameless for raising prices.
Some well-informed Loose cultivators silently took out spirit stones and began purchasing all sorts of life-saving items.
The prices of spirit amulets, artifacts, and mana robes began to rise again.
To purchase these life-saving items, many well-informed cultivators emptied their coffers overnight.
And the cultivators in the Immortal Pavilion in charge of selling these items were mostly unaware of what was going on but faced with countless cultivators coming to buy life-saving items, they could only sell as usual.
Although they didn’t know why the higher-ups suddenly raised prices, the cultivators at the bottom wouldn’t think too hard.
Rather, people started coming in even larger numbers after the price hike, leaving them rather perplexed.
On the first day.
He Song and Wei Fan stayed within the small courtyard without venturing out.
Most of the Loose Cultivators in the outside world had a routine day, living, cultivating, practicing seclusion, and making breakthroughs in the Immortal Pavilion.
And the prices of artifacts, spirit amulets, and mana robes began to rise.
The second day.
He Song and Wei Fan remained in the small courtyard without venturing out.
The prices of artifacts, spirit amulets, and mana robes continued to rise.
Some Loose cultivators with sharper instincts seemed to have detected something, and started to buy life-saving items in droves.
More hasty figures appeared among the pedestrians on the street.
The third day.
He Song and Wei Fan remained in the small courtyard without venturing out.
Several bodies of Loose cultivators were found in the dark corners of the Immortal Pavilion.
The Immortal Pavilion Law Enforcement Team came to investigate but found nothing and had to leave at that.
At the same time.
Most of the artifacts in the Artifacts Pavilion had been sold out. Despite the endless stream of Loose cultivators coming to buy, the remaining artifacts in the pavilion were exorbitantly priced.
Still, they were quickly sold out.
All the spirit amulets in the Spirit Amulet Pavilion were sold out, and the Loose cultivators coming to buy started flooding into the Stall Section.
However, the spirit amulets in the Stall Section had also long been sold out.
As for the mana robes in the Spirit Clothes Pavilion… they were not something common Loose Cultivators could afford. Only Qi-refining late-stage cultivators, or Qi-refining mid-stage cultivators with high wealth, were able to afford them.
The fourth day.
He Song and Wei Fan continued to stay in the small courtyard, without stepping out of it.
Somebody heard the sounds of intense magical battle last night, but no one dared to investigate.
Only in the early hours of the morning did some start gingerly stepping out onto the streets.
Then they found bodies lying at all angles on a street.
Among the bodies were unknown cultivators dressed in black and masked, and also some nearby cultivators who sneaked out to look around.
When this news spread, the entire Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion was immediately aflame with panic.
Swiftly, the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion Law Enforcement Team issued announcements to every household.
“Evil Cultivators have infiltrated the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion and are wantonly murdering. The Law Enforcement Team is apprehending the Evil Cultivators.”
“Anyone harboring Evil Cultivators, death!”
“Anyone shielding Evil Cultivators, death!”
“Anyone withholding information, death!”
“Anyone seizing the opportunity for theft, death!”
“Anyone refusing to cooperate, death!”
“Anyone colluding with Evil Cultivators, death!”
“…”
Blood-red death appeared in children’s size right in front of their eyes, causing He Song frown bit.
It’s the first time he had seen such a blood-soaked announcement where death is the resort for any slight incident.
It was so overbearing.
