Chapter 61: Chapter 61: The Art of Escaping

However, three years have passed, and her cultivation is still at the fourth-tier of Qi Refining, without breaking through to the fifth-tier.
But He Song’s cultivation has already broken through to the fifth-tier of Qi
Refining.
What does this mean?
It means that He Song managed to break through from the fourth-tier to the fifth-tier in just three years.
Such a rapid improvement in cultivation speed made the surprise in Ping’er’s eyes gradually intensify.
His cultivation speed is so fast.
Could it be that the “worldly entanglements” mentioned in the letter are him frantically earning spirit stones?
If so, that seems to make sense.
After imagining all the “hardships” He Song went through in these three years, the slight dissatisfaction in Ping’er’s heart instantly vanished.
What replaced it was a faint sense of joy.
Three years.
Three years of crazy cultivation.
If it were her, she might have been exhausted long ago.
He Song still remembered the agreement he made with her three years ago.
He specifically invited her to the Flowers Tea House for a chat.
As expected, she did not misjudge him.
“I am really sorry, fellow daoist. I have been entangled in worldly matters in the past three years, which has taken up much of my energy and mind. I hope you won’t blame me.”
He Song placed a freshly brewed cup of tea in front of Ping’er, then slightly bowed his hand to her as he spoke.
Worldly entanglements.
Of course, that’s an excuse.
But after three years of not seeing each other, he needed to give Ping’er a reason and a chance to step down.
In this way, it could also lessen the grievances in Ping’er’s heart.

worldly entanglements.
Only now has he finally fulfilled his promise by inviting her.
“It doesn’t matter, I haven’t lost anything while waiting for your invitation, and since you’ve invited me now, I certainly won’t blame you.”
Smelling the tea fragrance, Ping’er took the teacup in front of her and gently sipped it before shaking her head.
Since she discovered He Song’s cultivation had reached the fifth-tier of Qi Refining, she had already imagined his situation in these three years.
It must have taken He Song a lot of effort to break through from the fourth-tier of Qi Refining to the fifth-tier in three years.
Temporarily forgetting could be considered excusable.
Now that he has sent the invitation, her goal of befriending He Song has been achieved.
Naturally, she wouldn’t say anything weird anymore.
Seeing this, He Song understood that there were no grievances in Ping’er’s heart.
Therefore, with He Song trying to test the waters, and Ping’er looking to befriend him, the conversation between the two quickly became harmonious. As they chatted happily, they both felt their relationship grow closer.
With the teapot emptying, and sensing the timing was right,
He Song remembered his purpose for inviting Ping’er.
“Fellow daoist Ping’er, since you are in charge of the Spirit Skill Pavilion, do you know the quickest escape techniques there?” At a certain moment, He Song asked with a bow.
He Song, who had just set up the Illusion Array, needed such a skill now.
That’s because only with a skill like this can he carry out his next plan.
Since the Illusion Array and Spirit-Gathering Array have been set up, he just needs to set up a Five Phases Array, and then he can personally move beyond the Immortal Pavilion to create his own spirit field.
Before the Five Phases Array is set up, He Song needs to have everything prepared for establishing a spirit field.
Only in this way could He Song create his own spirit field at the fastest speed after setting up the Five Phases Array.
Not to wait until that time to find a solution in a hurry.
At this moment, He Song’s question is the real purpose of inviting Ping’er here.
If it weren’t for this, he might not even have thought of Ping’er in front of him after another three years.
“Quick escape techniques? There are a few; let me think about it.” Ping’er pondered upon hearing this.
But soon, she spoke again.
“The first technique, Mountain Light Body Skill, a mid-level skill with greater speed than the Light Body Skill. Essential for long-distance travel and escape, valued at fifty spirit stones.”
“The second technique, Earth Tunneling Skill, a high-quality skill that allows one to escape underground at incredible speed. However, it should be noted that it is easily countered by the Earthshaking Skill, valued at one hundred spirit stones.”
“The third technique…”
“All these skills are in the Spirit Skill Pavilion; if you need them, you can come with me.”
There are such skills, but outside the Spirit Skill Pavilion, even if she is one of the stewards, she cannot take them out.
The jade slips that record these skills are all made by Foundation Establishment Masters, and their value is extremely high.
They are equivalent to the service of a Foundation Establishment Master, sold only by the Spirit Skill Pavilion.
If one was lost, the Foundation Establishment Master would blame her, and she wouldn’t be able to withstand it.
So she has to suggest He Song come with her to the Spirit Skill Pavilion to make arrangements.
“In that case, I’ll join you.”
When He Song heard this, he nodded and then left the Flowers Tea House with
Pinger.
The two quickly arrived at the Spirit Skill Pavilion.
Spirit Skill Pavilion.
In the VIP room,
Ping’er brewed a pot of spirit tea for He Song and left to fetch the jade slips for him.
He Song casually poured himself a cup, took a nice sip, and suddenly felt an increase in the spirit power within his body.
For a moment, He Song seemed to remember the scene when he first tasted this tea.
This spirit tea, called Green Immortal Spirit Tea, was something He Song had tasted on his second visit to the Spirit Skill Pavilion. It was exclusive to the VIP room.
When He Song first tasted it, he had asked Ping’er about the price of the tea.
He remembered that Ping’er seemed to have mentioned that this Green Immortal Spirit Tea was from the Thick Earth Sect, priced at ten spirit stones per ounce.
Ten spirit stones per ounce.
Not only could the old him not afford to enjoy it, but even now, He Song still could not afford to enjoy it.
It’s too expensive!
With He Song’s current income of ninety spirit stones per year, he can only buy nine ounces of spirit tea per year.
How many times can you drink nine ounces of spirit tea?
He Song didn’t know, and he didn’t want to know either.
Perhaps when he has an abundance of spirit stones in the future, he will buy some Green Immortal Spirit Tea to drink slowly at home and enjoy the refreshing feeling of improving his cultivation simply by drinking tea. But now is not the time.
Soon, Ping’er returned to the VIP room with a tray in her hands.
On the tray, several jade slips were shining brightly, making it impossible to look away.
“Fellow daoist, all the quick escape techniques in the Spirit Skill Pavilion are here. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, and I will answer you to the best of my knowledge.”
Placing the tray in front of He Song, Ping’er assured him.
After their previous conversation, the relationship between the two had begun to grow closer.
Now, at the beginning of their friendship, she would naturally not hide anything from He Song.
She had been wanting to befriend He Song for a long time and was quite satisfied with the current outcome.
“Thank you, fellow daoist Ping’er.”
He Song poured a cup of spirit tea and placed it in front of Ping’er before
thanking her with a smile.
Soon after, He Song’s gaze focused on the jade slips in the tray..
