Chapter 1568: Chapter 986 Mu Xue

A large portion still remained within He Song’s storage bag.

Upon witnessing this scene.

He Song felt a torrent of emotions in his heart.

A Nascent Soul Perfect Cultivator–such an individual could be considered among the most elite experts in the Cultivation World.

And the wealth accumulated over their lifetime was naturally immense.

What a pity.

No matter how powerful they became, even to such an extent, they ultimately could not escape the fate of falling to death as their lifespan ran out.

All the lifetime wealth they had painstakingly amassed now ended up in He Song’s hands.

From this, it was evident how enticing the concept of eternal life was to other cultivators.

Even beings as formidable as Nascent Souls and Deity Transforming cultivators.

Could only stand powerless in the face of the passage of time.

This was why if He Song did not choose to tread cautiously and cultivate slowly but instead walked another path.

Then, what awaited him would likely be the ferocious, unbridled greed of other cultivators.

Skinned and stripped.

Soul Extraction and Refining.

Such acts would merely be commonplace.

The most terrifying possibility was.

Suffering unbearable torment before being completely seized by some ancient monster.

Just imagining such a scenario made He Song feel a chill down his spine.

From his early days in the Qi Refining stage, He Song had cultivated all the way to this point.

He had witnessed too many deaths.

And he understood clearly.

The weight of the desire for eternal life in the hearts of other cultivators.

To the point that.

Even He Song himself.

If he were not a long-lived everlasting being by nature.

Upon hearing news of the appearance of such an everlasting being, perhaps he too would commit ruthless actions to seize that opportunity for eternal life.

After all, He Song was now a powerful Nascent Soul cultivator.

When confronting a weaker everlasting being, this force would be sufficient to achieve his goal.

Fortunately.

He Song was an everlasting being himself.

Moreover, during his weaker years, he had never revealed his abnormality.

Thus, as He Song now witnessed the demise of a Nascent Soul Perfect Cultivator before him, he felt this surge of emotions.

Otherwise.

The current He Song likely wouldn’t even be in the mood to sigh at all.

Still, after his moment of reflection, He Song’s hands didn’t falter for an instant, swiftly organizing and accounting for the entire wealth of this Nascent Soul Perfect Cultivator.

After separating the treasures that might be useful to himself.

He very quickly sold off the rest, converting them into various resources required for his cultivation.

As for the items that might serve him in the future.

He Song placed them back into his storage bag for later use.

After completing all of this.

He Song then turned his gaze upon the Nascent Soul Perfect corpse lying before him.

This Nascent Soul Perfect corpse.

Was the most precious thing He Song had obtained from that Nascent Soul Cave Abode earlier.

If He Song were fortunate enough, and he succeeded in refining this corpse into a puppet, it might bring about immense enhancements to his personal strength.

Sweeping his eyes over the corpse, thoughts quickly churned in his mind.

Determining the various materials required to refine this corpse into a puppet.

He Song casually stored it away, promptly making his way to the Treasure Pavilion’s vault to purchase the multitude of materials he needed.

Moreover, given how formidable this corpse had been in life.

He Song made sure to select some rarer and more powerful materials in the process.

By doing so, this puppet, once refined, could even surpass the combat strength of an ordinary Nascent Soul Perfect Cultivator.

Its construction materials would ensure seamless functionality.

However.

Collecting such high-grade materials meant the resources required to refine this puppet grew significantly.

Fortunately, He Song had already claimed all the wealth this corpse had amassed in its lifetime.

These resources posed no significant obstacle for He Song.

In fact, even after purchasing all the essential materials, there would still be a generous surplus.

It truly highlighted the staggering value of a Nascent Soul Perfect Cultivator’s lifetime assets.

As the most powerful beings beneath Deity Transforming.

Any cultivator who reached the stage of Nascent Soul Perfection was considered a top-tier expert in the Cultivation World.

Such experts, having endured thousands of years, could accumulate wealth that was unimaginable to ordinary cultivators.

Even for someone like He Song, a Nascent Soul cultivator himself.

Upon initially obtaining these resources, he was deeply shocked.

Nonetheless, these resources proved immensely beneficial to He Song.

Enough to significantly bolster his own strength, as well as the power of his puppet retainers.

For instance, He Song was about to begin refining a puppet using this Nascent Soul Perfect corpse.

Once this puppet came into being.

This would bring the count of He Song’s high-grade combatants to three.

Qing Feng, whose strength had reached Nascent Soul Perfection.

Ye He, whose cultivation had attained late-stage Nascent Soul.

Adding on this newly crafted puppet, he would have a total of three.

The presence of these three powerful puppets would provide He Song unparalleled advantages, whether facing trials for rare opportunities or addressing other critical matters.

Soon.

He Song purchased a considerable quantity of highly valuable materials at the Treasure Pavilion’s vault.

With everything prepared, lacking only the final execution.

He Song promptly made his way into the artifact Refining Room and began the refinement process for his sixth Nascent Soul puppet.

This Nascent Soul puppet.

Its strength in life had surpassingly eclipsed all the previous ones.

He Song even speculated.

If this Nascent Soul puppet, once refined, managed to achieve prowess exceeding Nascent Soul Perfection itself…
