Chapter 417: 409: Sudden Increase in Strength

However, He Song was completely unaware of all the consequences brought about by his breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm.

At this moment, he was still immersed in the process of his divine sense rapidly growing, continuously absorbing the spirit Qi from the outside world and transforming it into his own mana.

The growth of divine sense left He Song intoxicated.

Although he had experienced this kind of rapid increase in divine sense power before, he was experiencing it for the first time to such an extent, where his divine sense rapidly skyrocketed and persisted for a long time.

Like when he broke through to Foundation Establishment Realm, his divine sense was born with rapid growth.

And when he broke through to the Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment, Late Foundation Establishment Stage, and even the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, the growth of his divine sense during these breakthroughs couldn’t compare with the growth he experienced during his Golden Core Realm breakthrough.

Exactly because after breaking through from Foundation Establishment Realm to Golden Core Realm, his divine sense power also experienced a rapid increase.

As a result, He Song’s divine sense power quickly expanded to cover dozens of miles.

Moreover, with the passage of time, this range was still rapidly growing.

Forty miles.

Fifty miles.

Eighty miles.

Ninety miles…

As time went by, the range He Song’s divine sense could cover became increasingly vast.

Soon, the range his divine sense could cover reached hundreds of miles, and it was still growing continuously.

Until finally,

He Song extended his divine sense and looked around the surrounding area of 150 miles, and a trace of astonishment flashed through his heart.

After his breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm, 150 miles was the final result of his divine sense’s growth.

However, after extending his divine sense to cover a 150-mile radius and including everything within that area, He Song, who was originally focused on seclusive cultivation to consolidate his cultivation base, noticed something unusual within the 150-mile radius.

Cultivators in this area,

seemed a bit too few.

A radius of 150 miles.

This distance already included Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, which was a hundred miles away, within He Song’s divine sense range.

However, as He Song’s cultivation had reached the Golden Core Realm, those Qi Refining stage cultivators and the Foundation Establishment Master in the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion were completely unaware that He Song’s divine sense had sensed them all.

Just like when He_song had previously extended his divine sense to scan the entire Immortal Pavilion without anyone noticing

He Song was now doing the same.

Furthermore, his cultivation had already reached the Golden Core Realm.

After extending his divine sense, there was no need for divine sense scanning. He only needed to extend his divine sense a few hundred meters around him to sense the cultivators within Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

Compared to before when he could only sense within a dozen meters, it was now much better.

In this way, He Song was able to quickly sense everyone within a range of about 150 miles while extending his divine sense to cover the area.

Divine sense sensing was different from divine sense scanning.

While divine sense scanning is more accurate, it can also be detected by others.

Divine sense sensing, although less accurate, does not alert others.

Since activating divine sense scanning can be considered a declaration of hostility in the Cultivation World, divine sense sensing became the first choice for most cultivators.

He Song was naturally using this method as well.

Without anyone noticing, He Song had already checked the surrounding environment, the number of cultivators, and even their cultivation base once.

However, after He Song went over all this information in his mind,

he keenly noticed that there were far fewer cultivators in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion than before.

Moreover, many cultivators were searching all over the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

Seeing this situation, although He Song didn’t understand the reason, he still thought he should take it seriously after some consideration.

After all,

this place was the foundation of his cultivation, and if something big happened without him knowing, he might be buried here.

As an everlasting being, He Song naturally valued his life very much.

Therefore, after a short contemplation, He Song quickly used his divine sense to eavesdrop on the conversations between the cultivators.

A moment later,

After hearing from many cultivators about the abnormal decrease in spirit Qi concentration and its return to normalcy at a time that coincided with his own Golden Core breakthrough,

He Song’s face showed a helpless sigh.

As expected,

during his seclusive cultivation, when he broke through to the Golden Core Realm, many things had indeed happened in the outside world.

Moreover, among the events that had the largest connection to him, one originated from him.

The Divine Thunder Array absorbed spirit Qi, causing the surrounding spirit Qi concentration to drop rapidly,

Then, as he successfully broke through to the Golden Core Realm and greatly reduced his need for spirit Qi, the surrounding spirit Qi was able to recover quickly.

Once this news got out, anyone could probably sense that something was off.

He Song had his own speculation about why the Divine Thunder Array had such an effect.

After all, the Divine Thunder Array has too many functions, and its Spirit-Gathering effect is significantly inferior to that of other arrays of the same level.

This difference is not obvious in normal times.

At most, the spirit Qi concentration inside the array would be lower and cultivation slower.

However, when a cultivator is about to make a breakthrough and needs a large amount of spirit Qi supply, this small difference may be the key to hiding the commotion caused by the breakthrough.

According to He Song’s estimation, a higher-level Spirit-Gathering Array would be enough for a cultivator to break through to the Golden Core Realm without being noticed by the outside world.

Because the spirit Qi concentration within the Spirit-Gathering Array is sufficient, there is no need for temporarily absorbing a large amount of spirit Qi from the outside world.

Of course, there wouldn’t be a scene like the Divine Thunder Array, which temporarily absorbed a large amount of spirit Qi from the outside world.

However, it’s a pity that He Song didn’t learn any Spirit-Gathering Array and could only use the Divine Thunder Array as a substitute.

As for the unexpected developments,

He Song didn’t want it to happen, but he was helpless.

Of course,

since it had already happened, He Song would naturally take immediate action after learning about it.

You must know,

this area is the territory of the Thick Earth Sect.

And in the Thick Earth Sect, there were still two Golden Core Realm cultivators.

Although this time it might not necessarily be a Golden Elixir Master coming, there would definitely be Foundation Establishment cultivators coming to investigate.

He Song could even imagine the scene of the Thick Earth Sect sending cultivators to investigate the abnormality in this area.

After all, for the spirit Qi concentration in one place to suddenly drop without warning and then recover without warning, there must be a reason behind it.

Whether it’s the Thick Earth Sect or any other Golden Core power,

as long as something like this happens within their territory, they would definitely send cultivators to investigate.

As for whether they can find out anything,

or whether they can discover any clues,

only Heaven knows.
