Chapter 809: Chapter 606: Golden Core Great Battles_2
Nowadays, the names of Master White Crane, Flying Crane Master, and another Mad Wind Master are already well known among the Foundation Establishment True Persons within Luo Feng Province.
There’s no need to mention Master White Crane and Flying Crane Master.
The deeds they have committed, He Song probably understands better than anyone else.
But as for that Mad Wind Master, after a bit of inquiry, He Song soon discovered this person’s identity.
This person is the very Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator who joined forces with White Crane and Flying Crane partway through their endeavors.
This Mad Wind Master, having reached Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, had initially conspired with White Crane and Flying Crane, continuously luring other Foundation Establishment True Persons from Luo Feng Province to venture out.
And following each True Person’s departure with the three, news would subsequently spread of their deaths within the site of treasures.
In such a cycle, doubts finally began to arise.
These Foundation Establishment True Persons lured away by the trio were not all solitary figures without affiliation.
Even if there were any such solitary individuals, their number could not possibly be high.
Under these circumstances, the friends and relatives of the deceased, after their deaths, naturally conducted their own investigations.
And since White Crane and the others had initially lured Foundation Establishment True Persons from Luo Feng Province to hunt for treasures.
Over time, as the number of True Persons that followed them reached a certain level,
suspicion naturally arose.
After continuous investigation,
the deeds of the White Crane trio were brought to light.
And it was precisely because of this,
when He Song was reflecting on Array Skills in that site of treasures, he waited in vain for the arrival of the trio of White Crane.
At that time, the reputation of the White Crane trio had been utterly destroyed.
If it weren’t for the combined strength of the three, equivalent to five Foundation Establishment warriors,
they would have probably been besieged and killed long ago, erasing their path of cultivation.
However, it was exactly because of their formidable power, and the protection of two Foundation Establishment spirit beasts, that they managed to survive the turmoil.
Nevertheless, even though they survived, it became impossible for the three to deceive any other Foundation Establishment True Persons in the time that followed.
Even Luo Feng Province was no longer a place where the three could remain.
During that time,
the trio of White Crane fled far away to hide their names in other Immortal States.
Only when everything had gradually calmed down did the three quietly return to that site of treasures.
And He Song knew all about the subsequent events.
The White Crane trio broke through the Array Skills but made a slight miscalculation, each being slain by the Golden Core Puppets within the Array, dying in the site of treasures.
Regarding this, He Song didn’t know whether to say that the trio were incredibly unlucky or incredibly fortunate.
Unlucky because not only had their reputations been destroyed, but they also died silently in the site of treasures afterward.
Fortunate because, despite their ruined reputations, they did not die and were even able to return and break the Array.
Such circumstances made He Song reflect with a sigh on the actions of the three.
These three,
if not for encountering that Golden Core Puppet, might indeed have had the chance to plunder the site of treasures completely.
Regrettably, the path they chose at the very beginning was wrong.
Within that site of treasures, there were no precious treasures at all.
What was present was merely a Golden Core Puppet.
If the trio were powerful, this Golden Core Puppet could indeed be considered immensely precious.
Unfortunately, their strength was insufficient, and thus they were not fortunate enough to enjoy such a precious treasure.
As He Song continued to mingle within Luo Feng Province,
before long,
He Song, who originally thought he had heard all the news of the past few years, soon heard another piece of information.
The Golden Elixir Master who recently appeared in the western part of Luo Feng Province, emitting his Golden Core aura all the way towards the Demons Realm,
also just happened to leave the area of influence of the Golden Snake Sect today, entering into the territory of the Netherworld Blade Sect.
However, this Golden Elixir Master, after finally stepping out of the Golden Snake Sect’s area of influence and entering the Netherworld Blade Sect’s, unexpectedly engaged in fierce battle with another Golden Elixir Master.
For some unknown reason, the confrontation suddenly erupted between them.
The Golden Elixir Master he battled was a cultivator at the Golden Core Middle Stage, who bore the dharma title Azure Hawk, named after the Foundation Establishment Azure Hawk he possessed during his Foundation Establishment Realm.
This True Monarch Azure Hawk had a certain reputation within the Immortal State controlled by the Netherworld Blade Sect.
Having entered the Golden Core Realm a long time ago, his personal strength was also quite remarkable.
In the Immortal State occupied by the Netherworld Blade Sect, he was also considered among the powerful within the Golden Core echelon.
But for some reason, after a chance encounter with He Song, Azure Hawk directly attacked the Golden Elixir Master who was en route to the Demons Realm.
Now,
The two True Monarchs Azure Hawk were in relentless battle at the border between the Golden Snake Sect and the Netherworld Blade Sect, causing numerous cultivators to flee in all directions.
This news naturally spread swiftly while the two Golden Elixir Masters were engaged in their great struggle.
Currently, the message had just been conveyed.
The situation described in it seemed to have just occurred.
Moreover, it was He Song who overheard this news while passing by a street and listening in from a tavern by the roadside.
The person who spoke of this news in the tavern was a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
As such, the veracity of the news was further solidified.
But precisely because of this,
after suddenly receiving this information, He Song turned around and immediately headed towards that tavern.
He wanted to hear more of the follow-up.
If True Monarch Azure Hawk could slay that Gold Core Puppet on the spot, or if other events unfolded during the process, he wanted to be able to judge the situation.
After all, He Song had witnessed that Gold Core Puppet quietly slipping away right in front of him, heading westward.
He did not strike.
In fact, He Song hadn’t even considered following to see what would happen.
If True Monarch Azure Hawk were to slay it directly, or capture it back to his cave mansion,
it was likely that the one who would offend that diabolic Golden Core in the future would be True Monarch Azure Hawk.
Afterwards, He Song would probably only need to pay attention to the news about True Monarch Azure Hawk to know whether this Gold Core Puppet had a master, and how powerful its owner was.
Besides,
if something unexpected happened to True Monarch Azure Hawk while battling the Gold Core Puppet,
such as the puppet’s master suddenly launching a sneak attack on Azure Hawk,
He Song might also feel fortunate about the choice he had made originally.
The main reason why He Song did not attack the Gold Core Puppet initially was his reluctance to bear the consequences of such an action.
For a Gold Core Puppet or a cultivator’s Golden Core, to thoroughly offend a diabolic Golden Core,
was not something He Song would allow.
You see, He Song had absolutely no idea of the cultivator’s ability who owned this Gold Core Puppet.
If the other party was a cultivator at Golden Elixir Great Perfection, He Song might be able to flee, but not without paying a substantial price.
To pay such an enormous price for a Gold Core Puppet or a cultivator’s Golden Core was definitely not what He Song would want.
And this was precisely the reason he had watched the Gold Core Puppet leave right before his eyes.
He Song had no way of knowing whether the owner of the Gold Core Puppet was hiding in the shadows,
perhaps waiting for someone to attack the puppet, then immediately launch a counterattack, and ultimately refine them into their next Gold Core Puppet.
This speculation was highly possible.
He Song was unwilling to take that risk because of such a concern.
However, now True Monarch Azure Hawk, without any heed to these considerations, went straight into action against this Gold Core Puppet.
In the face of such a situation, He Song naturally wanted to listen carefully to the subsequent developments.
After all, the events that True Monarch Azure Hawk was about to experience were probably what He Song himself might have encountered had he attacked the Gold Core Puppet.
Whether it was an ambush, being hunted afterwards, or coming out with a fortune, all were possibilities.
