“Could it be that he wants to reminisce with old friends before he dies?”

“Or perhaps…”

As various thoughts flashed through his mind, He Song’s gaze once again swept over the paper in front of him.

He then carefully folded it and meticulously placed it in his storage bag.

In his storage bag, papers like this had already filled a small corner.

No matter who it was or what the letter said, as long as someone sent a letter to He Song, he would keep it treasured.

Now, after accumulating for over a hundred years, He Songs storage bag had a small mountain of letters.

Of course, most of these papers were contributed by Su Qian.

Su Qian’s letters were still increasing at a rate of one per month.

From the very beginning, He Song had thought about collecting these letters.

He was an everlasting being.

With an endless lifespan.

But those who knew him were not.

They were ordinary cultivators, with limited lifespans and destined to experience birth, aging, illness, and death.

Once they were gone, He Song feared he would soon forget them as time went by.

In this case, leaving behind some traces of their existence became quite important.

At least one day, when He Song was feeling sentimental, he could take out these papers one by one and recall the faces of his old friends in his mind.

Like… Lin Cong.

After putting Lin Cong’s letter into his storage bag,

He Song hesitated for a moment before quickly leaving his residence.

Since Lin Cong wanted to see him, he might as well go and meet him.

With He Song’s upcoming breakthrough to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, there was nothing to worry about in a small place like the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

However, before heading there, He Song decided to visit the Treasure Pavilion first.

Heaven Power Immortal City’s Treasure Pavilion.

He Song’s figure appeared quietly in this place.

At the same time, a voice sounded in He Song’s ear.

“This humble servant pays her respects to the guardian. May I ask if the guardian has any important matters today?”

With the sound of this voice, a delicate figure appeared at He Song’s side.

This person was Master Luo Jing.

Her cultivation was in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage.

She was the Sub-Pavilion Master of the Treasure Pavilion in Heaven Power Immortal City.

As for her real name, He Song was not quite sure.

He Song had spent many years in Heaven Power Immortal City and was well acquainted with her.

During mundane times, all the cultivation resources he needed were basically provided by her.

Therefore, when He Song came to the Treasure Pavilion, she was the one who came to greet him.

Facing Master Luo Jing’s inquiry, He Song hesitated for a moment before feeling that it would be harmless to tell others.

Only then did he speak out his thoughts.

“Do you have any Longevity Elixirs here?”

“I have a Qi Refining stage friend who is nearing the end of his lifespan. If there are no Longevity Elixirs, I’m afraid…”

In the Cultivation World, elixirs that extended life, as well as those that broke through bottlenecks and increased cultivation, were always the most expensive.

Because these elixirs could indirectly prolong a cultivator’s life, allowing them to live longer.

Of course, the difficulty of refining and the preciousness of the materials required for Longevity Elixirs that Qi Refining cultivators could take were not on the same level as those for Foundation Establishment Realm and Golden Elixir Realm cultivators.

Longevity Elixirs that could extend the life of a Foundation Establishment cultivator might be very expensive.

Longevity Elixirs that could extend the life of a Golden Elixir Realm cultivator might be far beyond He Song’s imagination.

However, He Song thought that the price of Longevity Elixirs for Qi Refining stage cultivators should not be expensive.

At least for He Song, who was about to break through to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, the price should not be expensive.

After all, he was now quite wealthy.

Being proficient in array tao, amulet tao, and elixir tao, He Song was exceptionally wealthy among Foundation Establishment cultivators.

In this case, since he and Lin Cong were also good friends, it was appropriate to spend some spirit stones to prolong his life and make their friendship more sincere.

If Lin Cong died of old age in the future and He Song thought of him again, there would be no regrets in his heart.

After all,

he had already found a Longevity Elixir for him, and he had done his best to be kind and righteous to him.

“This Longevity Elixir will serve as my farewell gift to this friend of mine.” With this thought in mind, He Song was about to ask for the price.

But he saw the sudden frown on Master Luo Jing’s face beside him.

Seeing this scene, a trace of doubt suddenly emerged in He Song’s mind.

What’s going on?

Could it be that this Longevity Elixir is very expensive?

So expensive that even he could not afford it?

As He Song was puzzled, Master Luo Jing looked at him, with a hint of strangeness in her voice, and said.

“I heard before that Master Cang Song, Master Duan Hun, and Master Cheng Fu came out of an Immortal Pavilion together, supporting and helping each

other, and finally reached their current positions.”

“I thought it was just a joke, but now that I’ve witnessed Master Cang Song’s magnanimity, I’m embarrassed.”

“He comes here in person to find a Longevity Elixir for a Qi Refining stage friend.”

‘With Master Cang Song’s character, it’s truly a case of good deeds being rewarded for him to walk this path with the other two Masters.”

“It’s a pity that the Longevity Elixir is extremely precious, especially those that can extend the lifespan of a Qi Refining cultivator by ten years, which are even more rare.”

“I have not heard of such treasures appearing elsewhere recently, so I’m afraid I might disappoint the Master.”

Master Luo Jing’s eyes revealed a hint of interest as she stared at He Song.

The rarity of the Longevity Elixir was plain to see.

Especially the Longevity Elixir for Qi Refining stage cultivators, which were even more scarce.

Being so considerate as to find such a treasure for a friend at the Qi Refining stage, He Song’s character immediately earned her admiration.

But she didn’t know.

He Song had never paid attention to the price of Longevity Elixir before, let alone knowing that the Longevity Elixir for those at the Qi Refining stage would be so rare.

With a hint of doubt, He Song asked, puzzled.

“Why is the Longevity Elixir for those at the Qi Refining stage so rare?”

“Logically speaking, the most common one should be the Longevity Elixir for the Qi Refining cultivators, right?”

“Why would… ”

At this point, He Song’s mind suddenly flashed with another thought.

He stopped his words, looking at Master Luo Jing, wanting to hear her explanation.

According to ordinary people’s thoughts, the Longevity Elixir for Qi Refining stage cultivators should naturally be the cheapest and most abundant.

Even He Song had held this view before.

But after hearing Master Luo Jing’s words and giving it some careful thought, He Song became doubtful of this idea.

Since the Longevity Elixir was so precious.

The spirit medicine needed to refine it must also be extremely precious.

Moreover, the Longevity Elixir, like other elixirs, could not be used interchangeably between different realms.

Take the Earth Spirit Elixir that Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators use to enhance their cultivation, for example.

If a Qi Refining stage cultivator were to consume it, they might very well die due to their body exploding.

Longevity Elixir.

Longevity Elixirs that different realms can consume, are naturally different too.

Instead of plucking out the spirit medicine that could potentially grow into a higher age and using it to refine a Longevity Elixir that can be consumed by Qi Refining stage cultivators.

Why not wait until its age is sufficient, and then, after refining, use it as a Longevity Elixir for Foundation Establishment Realm or even Golden Elixir Realm cultivators?

How could the purchasing power of Qi Refining stage cultivators compare to that of Foundation Establishment and Golden Elixir stage cultivators?

There are too many Qi Refining stage cultivators, and no matter how many Longevity Elixirs are produced, they would likely be snatched away immediately, with low profits as well.

Under such circumstances. as long as profits are slightly pursued. the current situation would form.

No one is willing to refine Longevity Elixirs for Qi Refining stage cultivators.

There might even be more Longevity Elixirs for Foundation Establishment, Golden Elixir, and Nascent Soul type cultivators than there are for the Qi Refining stage ones.

After all, the higher the age of the spirit medicine used in the refinement of Longevity Elixirs, the better the quality of the Longevity Elixirs produced.

Instead of wasting spirit medicine by plucking it out before it has fully grown to refine a Longevity Elixir that can be consumed by Qi Refining cultivators, it would be better to let the spirit medicine grow first and then refine it into a Longevity Elixir for Foundation Establishment Realm or Golden Elixir Realm cultivators, thus gaining higher profits.

With this understanding, the rarity of the Longevity Elixir for Qi Refining stage cultivators makes sense.

“There are many reasons why Longevity Elixirs for the Qi Refining stage are so scarce.”

“First of all, for the main medicine used to refine Longevity Elixirs, the higher its age, the better the quality of the Longevity Elixir produced.”

“Moreover, a plant of the main medicine can only refine one batch of Longevity Elixir, whether it’s for the Qi Refining stage, Foundation Establishment Realm, or even Golden Elixir Realm.’

“If you were the one making the decision, would you rather wait ten years and refine such a spirit medicine into a Longevity Elixir for the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators,”

“Or would you choose to cultivate it for only one year and refine it into a Longevity Elixir for the Qi Refining stage cultivators?”

“Second, this type of spirit medicine is very precious, and the cost of merely purchasing a single seed already exceeds the price of a batch of Longevity Elixir for Qi Refining stage cultivators.”

“With the purchasing power of Qi Refining stage cultivators, they wouldn’t be able to afford the price even if it was raised to break-even.”

“Since they can’t even break even, why would anyone bother to refine it… ‘

“Thirdly, not everyone is like Master’s friend, who has a Foundation

Establishment Master as a friend and wants to find a Longevity Elixir for him.”

Finally, Master Luo Jing looked at He Song with a steady gaze, as if she wanted to see something from him.

However, He Song, who was already prepared for the worst, just sighed in his heart after hearing the news.

It seemed.

That he couldn’t even do the most trivial thing for Lin Cong during his last moments.

If he had known beforehand that Longevity Elixirs for the Qi Refining stage were so scarce, he probably wouldn’t have come here at all.

After all, he originally thought that Longevity Elixirs for the Qi Refining stage were not that precious.

But who would have thought that once he came here and inquired, he’d learn that these things were even more scarce than the Longevity Elixirs for Foundation Establishment cultivators.

In short, he had come to the wrong place.

Moreover, he had underestimated the status of Longevity Elixirs in the Cultivation World.

As an everlasting being, He Song had never been interested in Longevity Elixirs and thus had never bothered to inquire about the market trends.

But today, He Song could see the persistence of others in this world when it came to extending their life span..
