Given this, he might as well consider how to acquire the spiritual grass needed to refine True Yuan Pills now. The Qi Refining Pills were useless to Liang Sheng at this point, like a drop in the bucket.
And the True Yuan Pill was the elixir to assist Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators in their cultivation. He finally understood why cultivators always talked about good fortune and blessings.
Without blessings and fortune, they wouldn’t know how to proceed on the rocky path of immortal cultivation as they struggled to acquire the necessary resources.
Liang Sheng spent this period quietly in Jinzhou City, observing the secular world’s changes. He initially thought that the matter of the Upper Green Sect killing the Great General of Zhou would drag on for a long time, as it involved two major sects.
Like in his previous life, disputes between two big countries could last for years unless one side manages to overpower the other. Otherwise, they kept going on.
Although Liang Sheng was worried, he wasn’t overly concerned. After all, he didn’t believe that such a worldly matter could last for ten thousand years, right?
Armed with his Twenty Health Maintenance techniques, he saw time as a mere number. Could the Cultivation World really be mired in endless years due to secular affairs?
Perhaps, even if the sea turned into mulberry fields and the sects perished, Liang Sheng would still be sitting and watching the clouds rise and fall, unafraid of anything!
However, a month later, news suddenly came from the Great Zhou Palace that Grand General Zhou Yikao had passed away due to his critical injuries.
This news shocked the entire world!
Then, the Great Zhou Royal Family buried Zhou Yikao with the treatment of a prince. Although people mourned his untimely death, they also praised the Great Zhou Royal Family. General Zhou’s life had been full of ups and downs, and his posthumous treatment could be considered the best in the world.
Liang Sheng received this news while drinking wine, and he was momentarily stunned. Since the Great Zhou Royal Family dared to announce Zhou Yikao’s death, it meant that the issue had been resolved.
Otherwise, if Upper Green Sect disciples never appeared, the cautious Great Zhou family would keep waiting.
Still, Liang Sheng waited for another three days, until Zhou Yikao was successfully buried, before setting out for the Capital to investigate the matter.
As soon as Liang Sheng entered the capital, he saw the immense respect for Grand General Zhou Yikao, as almost every household in the city displayed white mourning decorations.
Even the Great Zhou Palace was adorned with white lanterns. With this treatment, Zhou Yikao could be considered the number one person among the royal relatives.
From a distance, Liang Sheng observed the Capital’s Imperial Palace, which no longer had any cultivator’s presence, but he still carefully checked for another three days. After confirming that there were no abnormalities in the palace, he carefully sneaked in.
At this point, Liang Sheng was like a ghost as he examined every corner of the palace. He eventually found out what he wanted to know.
A month ago, Upper Green Sect’s Qi Refining disciples were captured.
And there were three of them!
As expected, the three cultivators had sneaked into the Capital to investigate upon hearing that Zhou Yikao was critically injured but not dead. At the first opportunity, they were captured by Chen Fengchen.
If the Upper Green Sect disciples hadn’t been cautious, with only one of them going to the palace to investigate, they would have all been caught on that very night.
However, even so, due to Chen Fengchen’s presence as a Foundation Establishment cultivator and the Zhou family fortune-teller’s ability, it took them only a month to capture the other two Qi Refining disciples successfully.
Once they interrogated and confirmed that there were no Upper Green Sect disciples left in the secular world, Chen Fengchen hurriedly took them back to the Cultivation World. He had to bring them to his sect as soon as possible.
If he waited for the Upper Green Sect to react, who knew what kind of storm it would cause. Liang Sheng investigated thoroughly before finally putting his mind at ease.
The worldly matter was finally resolved, and he absolutely wouldn’t return to the secular world unless there were special circumstances.
It was too frightening.
Why did trouble always follow him, just like what happened in Jinzhou City before? It was quite unfortunate, but at least the outcome was satisfactory.
However, when Liang Sheng carefully returned to Xigu Pass, he was still shocked to see Hua Tian Sect disciples guarding the mountain cave amidst the thick fog.
How much importance did the Hua Tian Sect attach to the Great Zhou Royal Family to do this?
At this point, Liang Sheng certainly wouldn’t act rashly. This was likely due to the Hua Tian Sect’s concern that Upper Green Sect people might come.
Once Chen Fengchen brought the Upper Green Sect disciples in his hands back and some time passed, the matter would be resolved, and these disciples would naturally withdraw.
Although Liang Sheng could forcefully break into the Immortal Cultivation Market now, there was no need. He wasn’t in a hurry, so why put himself in a passive position?
In that case, he might as well stay in the secular world a while longer.
Today’s setback needed some consolation.
Jinzhou City.
Yichun Building.
Another night of a legendary expenditure of ten thousand gold.
This young master had both wealth and a strong body, a rare find!
Another year passed.
As Liang Sheng had anticipated, the Hua Tian Sect disciples at Xigu Pass eventually left the secular world to return to their sect. It seemed that the Hua Tian Sect and Upper Green Sect had reached a resolution.
Liang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
However, just to be safe, Liang Sheng waited another half a year. When he was sure that there was no crisis in the secular world, he entered the market without wasting any more time.
Of course, before entering the market, he visited the spiritual field first. But as he approached the boundary of the spiritual field, he could not help but frown.
During his two years away, something had happened to this spiritual field.
Some people were attempting to break through the defenses he had arranged around the spiritual field to gain entry.
However, there were not many of them, and his presence in the secular world for these two years had, after all, allowed someone to discover this place’s abnormalities..
