"Since Fellow Daoist has refused."
"It seems that I am not fortunate enough to enjoy this item."
"Originally, I thought that this time I would be able to get my wish and bring all four Cultivator Golden Cores back."
"It's just a pity that Heaven doesn't grant people's wishes. Since Fellow Daoist doesn't want to accept this Storage Bag, then I will have to send these Cultivator Golden Cores back from whence they came."
"To encircle and kill a Golden Core True Lord, the difficulty of the process is likely unimaginable."
"It's not just the danger when encircling and killing a Golden Core True Lord, but also the risk of being targeted by God Locking Sect experts."
"The price that you two Fellow Daoists paid for these four Cultivator Golden Cores is probably also immense."
"Furthermore, these Cultivator Golden Cores are extremely precious in the outside world, and ordinary Cultivators rarely see them."
"Presumably, even if you hand these Cultivator Golden Cores over to the Sect, the Sect will give you extremely generous compensation."
"Calculating it this way, the preciousness of these four Cultivator Golden Cores is indeed unimaginable."
"If you two Fellow Daoists really don't want to accept this Storage Bag, then I would be ashamed to accept these four Cultivator Golden Cores into my possession."
"Fellow Daoist, please take these four Cultivator Golden Cores back."
He Song naturally knew why Meng Guan and Wei Fan had come to This Location to deliver these four Cultivator Golden Cores.
Therefore, he also knew.
Meng Guan and Wei Fan would definitely not accept the resources he was offering so easily.
Although these resources were actually not much in He Song's eyes.
In fact, if the value of these resources was compared to those four Cultivator Golden Cores.
The value of the resources He Song wanted to offer was still far inferior.
The total value of the resources He Song prepared to offer was at most worth two to three Cultivator Golden Cores.
But the Cultivator Golden Cores He Song obtained were a full four.
The difference was almost half.
He Song cannot make up for this difference in value at the moment.
After all, he still needed to keep enough resources for himself to use in the future to purchase various materials and then use these materials to earn Spirit Stones.
Only by keeping enough operating capital could He Song rely on his own skills to continuously earn large amounts of Spirit Stones and quickly make his wealth abundant.
Therefore, after keeping enough resources for himself.
The resources I can offer are only these.
As for the difference, He Song planned to repay slowly in the future with Golden Core Spirit Talismans and Golden Core Spirit Pills.
After all, the great war between the One Yang Sect and God Locking Sect will likely continue for a long time.
The number of Golden Core Spirit Talismans and Golden Core Spirit Pills he sends to Meng Guan and Wei Fan in the future should also be considerable.
Over time, the difference will naturally be evened out.
And this was He Song's original intention.
But now.
Meng Guan and Wei Fan didn't want to accept the resources He Song was offering.
This forced He Song to use a tactical retreat, forcing Meng Guan and Wei Fan to accept his resources.
Although He Song understood that Meng Guan and Wei Fan had likely come here to repay the favor they owed him.
However, a favor is one thing.
Cultivator Golden Cores that have actually come into He Song's possession are another matter.
This kind of Treasure is rarely seen in the outside world.
Since Meng Guan and Wei Fan possessed this item, it would naturally be Everyone Happy if he exchanged other Treasures with them.
Otherwise, if I directly take these four Cultivator Golden Cores, I would probably owe a great favor.
The worth of four Cultivator Golden Cores is truly terrifying.
He Song had to offer resources, intending to reduce the weight of this favor.
Favors are hard to repay.
He Song didn't want to be suddenly dragged into something troublesome in the future.
If that really happened, things would not be something that Storage Bag in front of Meng Guan and Wei Fan could resolve.
As for Meng Guan and Wei Fan wanting to repay He Song's favor.
The fact that they came here to deliver these four Cultivator Golden Cores to He Song was already a great favor.
After all, they were on the Battlefield between the two great Nascent Soul Upper Sects.
If they hadn't delivered them, He Song would probably have to personally go to the Battlefield to get these four Cultivator Golden Cores.
But if He Song really went to the Battlefield, to the Front Line of the One Yang Sect.
Whether I could safely leave is unknown.
An unfamiliar Golden Core Cultivator who is very familiar with your Golden Core Elder suddenly appears on the Front Line of the One Yang Sect.
Even if He Song was now the Front Line commander of the One Yang Sect, he would probably keep them behind and have them contribute to the One Yang Sect, right?
After all, your two friends are serving the One Yang Sect.
If you were to join them, wouldn't that make the One Yang Sect even stronger?
Perhaps He Song would be kept in the One Yang Sect and participate in the great war between the One Yang Sect and God Locking Sect.
It was precisely because of such concerns.
That's why I chose to establish my Golden Core Cave Dwelling in the Border Region of the One Yang Sect in the Azure Moon Immortal Continent.
I have never set foot in the Heartland of the One Yang Sect.
What I fear most is being conscripted by the One Yang Sect.
He Song has never set foot in the Heartland of the One Yang Sect all these years, for fear of being conscripted by the One Yang Sect.
And Meng Guan and Wei Fan leaving the Battlefield to deliver Cultivator Golden Cores to He Song.
This can naturally already be considered a great favor.
Although this favor seemingly is still not enough to repay what He Song had done for them before.
However, once these four Cultivator Golden Cores are in He Song's possession, He Song's gains will far exceed anyone's imagination.
In this way, it's really hard to say how this favor should be calculated.
However, just as He Song was thinking about these things.
In front of him.
Meng Guan and Wei Fan exchanged another glance upon hearing this.
A flash of hesitation crossed their eyes.
At this moment.
He Song slightly sensed.
Meng Guan and Wei Fan in front of him were probably communicating through Divine Sense Telepathy.
However, because their Cultivation Levels are the same as mine, at the Golden Core Stage, I couldn't hear what they were saying.
And so.
After a moment of silence.
After they seemed to have reached an agreement.
Meng Guan only then spoke again, asking He Song to take back the four Cultivator Golden Cores in front of him.
At the same time, under He Song's gaze, he put away the Storage Bag in front of him.
Seeing this situation.
Although He Song didn't know what Meng Guan and Wei Fan had discussed, a smile flashed across his face.
After seeing Meng Guan accept the Storage Bag I offered.
I also put away the four Cultivator Golden Cores I had just taken out.
Since Meng Guan and Wei Fan had accepted the Storage Bag, then these four Cultivator Golden Cores naturally belonged to me.
Although He Song didn't hear Meng Guan and Wei Fan's Divine Sense Telepathy, with a little guess, he could figure out what they were discussing.
Nothing more than whether to accept the Storage Bag, and how to repay me later.
Probably nothing else.
Judging from their subsequent actions.
The conclusion after discussing was that they decided to accept the Storage Bag I offered and completed this exchange with He Song.
But what happened afterwards, how they convinced each other to make this decision, I didn't know.
I also didn't know what they discussed that made them decide to accept this Storage Bag.
But for He Song.
Since they had decided to accept the Storage Bag and complete this exchange with me.
There was no need to ask too much about other things.
Having supported each other all the way, He Song didn't want his two friends to suffer a loss.
Why would Meng Guan and Wei Fan want He Song to suffer a loss?
Since they wouldn't suffer a loss, then just look at Meng Guan and Wei Fan's subsequent actions.
No need to worry too much.
With these thoughts, He Song, Meng Guan, and Wei Fan all put away the items in front of them.
With the completion of this exchange.
The three of He Song could be considered Everyone Happy.
Meng Guan and Wei Fan obtained abundant resources, and their Cultivation Level and strength would likely become even stronger because of these resources.
From now on, whether they continue to join forces to encircle and kill God Locking Sect Golden Core Cultivators or do other things, the success rate would greatly increase.
And He Song obtained four Cultivator Golden Cores.
These four Cultivator Golden Cores could be considered treasures to protect my Dao for He Song.
Once these four Cultivator Golden Cores are refined into Talisman Treasures by He Song, He Song's combat power would likely surge instantly.
Although Talisman Treasures have limited uses, with these Offensive Weapons in hand, He Song's combat power is already incomparable compared to before.
It can be said that this exchange will bring strength improvements to all three of us.
Moreover, this strength improvement is significant.
With the completion of the exchange, the atmosphere within the Residence quickly became relaxed again.
After a pleasant chat, He Song learned many things I didn't know before.
For example, Meng Guan's Cultivation Realm.
Before coming here.
I had guessed Meng Guan's Cultivation Realm.
According to my guess at the time, Meng Guan's Cultivation Level was probably at a Bottleneck between the Early Golden Core Stage and Mid Golden Core Stage.
Meng Guan's Spirit Root Aptitude is low, only Five Spiritual Roots Aptitude.
With such Aptitude, the Bottleneck he faces would naturally be even stronger.
Such a guess fits with common sense.
Ordinary Cultivators with Five Spirit Roots, even reaching Foundation Establishment is difficult, let alone the Golden Core Stage.
Meng Guan could forcibly break through the Foundation Establishment Threshold with Five Spirit Roots Aptitude, and subsequently forcibly reached the Golden Core Stage, already has incredible Luck.
Encountering a Bottleneck after reaching the Golden Core Realm is naturally normal.
But.
After chatting happily with Meng Guan and Wei Fan, I learned that my guess was wrong.
Meng Guan's Cultivation Level is now at the same stage as He Song.
Is already at the Mid Golden Core Stage.
Moreover, he had already reached the Mid Golden Core Stage more than ten years ago.
If I remember correctly.
When the news of Meng Guan fighting two enemies alone on the Battlefield between the One Yang Sect and God Locking Sect spread, it was exactly twenty years ago.
Twenty years ago, Meng Guan, with his Early Golden Core Stage Cultivation Level, fought two enemies without losing ground, held on until Reinforcements arrived, and became Greatly Renowned.
A few years later.
With the help of Wei Fan and other One Yang Sect Golden Core Cultivators, successfully encircled and killed a God Locking Sect Golden Core True Lord.
A few years after that.
Meng Guan, even more so, in just cooperation with Wei Fan, encircled and killed one God Locking Sect Golden Core True Lord after another.
I had thought Meng Guan's Cultivation Level was still at the Early Golden Core Stage.
I was still sighing in my heart about Meng Guan's powerful strength.
But thinking about it now.
According to what Meng Guan and Wei Fan said.
As early as twenty years ago, when Meng Guan fought two enemies without losing ground at the Early Golden Core Stage, his Cultivation Level had probably already reached the Bottleneck of the Mid Golden Core Stage.
Later, with the assistance of other One Yang Sect Cultivators, when he joined Wei Fan to encircle and kill God Locking Sect Golden Core True Lords, Meng Guan's Cultivation Level had probably already reached the Mid Golden Core Stage.
Later, when they encircled and killed an Early Golden Core Stage God Locking Sect Cultivator with just the two of them.
Meng Guan's Cultivation Level had probably long been stabilized at the Mid Golden Core Stage.
And already possessed the powerful strength of the Mid Golden Core Stage.
Thinking about it this way.
Meng Guan, at the Mid Golden Core Stage, plus Wei Fan, an Early Golden Core Stage Cultivator, encircling and killing an Early Golden Core Stage God Locking Sect Cultivator, wasn't exactly Heaven-defying Combat Power.
At least, it could be considered reasonable.
After learning the truth of this matter.
The original idea in my heart naturally vanished.
Meng Guan's strength is indeed still very strong.
It's just that what happened on the Battlefield wasn't as exaggerated as I had imagined.
After understanding this.
And knowing that Meng Guan had reached the Mid Golden Core Stage even earlier than me.
I couldn't help but feel a trace of amazement in my gaze towards Meng Guan.
You need to know, Meng Guan formed his Golden Core ten years later than me.
Yet he broke through to the Mid Golden Core Stage several years earlier than me.
In this way.
The time Meng Guan took to successfully break through from the Early Golden Core Stage to the Mid Golden Core Stage was more than ten years, almost twenty years, shorter than mine.
I have never slowed down my Cultivation Speed.
Even with Bottlenecks, I only spent five years breaking through them.
Even so.
I was still more than ten years, almost twenty years, slower than Meng Guan.
Such an exaggerated Cultivation Level improvement Speed.
Made me click my tongue in amazement, feeling that Meng Guan's Cultivation Level breakthrough speed on the Battlefield was truly exaggerated.
Because of this, my idea that Meng Guan must have a Great Opportunity and that his Cultivation Level seems to improve rapidly the more he participates in war, was confirmed.
If the war between the One Yang Sect and God Locking Sect continues.
I don't even dare to imagine.
Meng Guan's future Cultivation Level, at what speed it will soar to the sky.
Perhaps, by the time Meng Guan's Cultivation Level successfully reaches the Great Perfection Golden Core Stage, or even breaks through to the Nascent Soul Realm, my Cultivation Level will still only be at the Golden Core Realm.
