Gold Core Is A Star, You Call This Cultivating Immortality?

Chapter 154: True Monarch, the True Genius

The atmosphere in the Divine Flower Gathering forum was solemn.

"Mourning for Blood Robe Sword God for thirty breaths."

"Blood Robe Sword God may be gone, but his soul remains!"

"I remember when I was a child, Blood Robe Sword God once held me..."

"There is true love in the world, I will abstain from sex for three days in honor of the Sword God!"

When Qi Yuan logged into the Divine Flower Gathering forum and saw these posts, his face turned pale.

"Hey, I'm not dead yet, stop mourning for me!"

Qi Yuan was speechless.

It seemed that these people probably thought that he would definitely fail in his battle against Clear Light Palace.

That's why they were posting like this.

If that's the case, he could accept it.

He thought for a moment and posted a thread using the Blood Robe Sword God's account.

"I, Blood Robe Sword God, have good news to share with everyone. Clear Light Palace has been destroyed, and justice has triumphed over evil!"

Now, the four words "Blood Robe Sword God" were trending, and even when Qi Yuan posted, he had to include his name in the title to ride the wave of popularity.

After posting, there were quickly many replies.

"Is Blood Robe Sword God still alive?"

"Clear Light Palace has been destroyed?"

"Is the sun falling today, making me delusional?"

"Could it be a fake Blood Robe Sword God?"

The post of the Blood Robe Sword God pretending to be dead caused the Divine Flower Gathering forum to explode.

The members of the Divine Flower Gathering were spread throughout the Ash Water World, so the news of Blood Robe Sword God's destruction of Clear Light Palace had not yet reached them, and many people were unaware.

In their eyes, Blood Robe Sword God would definitely lose in a battle against the sinister Clear Light Palace.

However, Blood Robe Sword God emerged victorious, how could they not be surprised?

"Senior, I knew you would win this battle!" Little Li from the Fox Den replied and secretly deleted her post mourning Blood Robe Sword God.

The forum was filled with shock, contributing to the warmth of the Ash Water World, and then there was dancing and celebration.

Outside, the news of Blood Robe Sword God's destruction of Clear Light Palace slowly spread throughout the Cuiyun Continent.

"Senior... how did you win?" someone asked.

Many people were puzzled and curious.

How did Blood Robe Sword God defeat Clear Light Palace?

At this time, many Violet Palaces were also paying attention to this question.

"At that time, Clear Light Palace used the Supreme Shocking Dragon Crown, and the Grand Palace Master used the Divine Finger of the Gods.

I thought I was going to die.

But then, I remembered the thousands of people behind me who supported me.

So, I found a big shot in the Divine Flower Gathering and borrowed the Immortal Pill Gold Core, the Nine Revolutions Gold Core, a million Gold Cores, and even a Star Gold Core...

Countless Gold Cores fell, summoning the sun and destroying Clear Light Palace."

Qi Yuan exaggerated, half true and half false.

After all, he was currently only a Star Gold Core cultivator, inferior to even a perfect Heavenly Dao Foundation Building cultivator. He had to hide his true strength and keep his trump cards hidden.

Everyone who paid attention to this post was stunned.

They didn't expect to get this kind of answer.

"The sun in the sky was summoned by the big shot?"

"...Is it true or false?"

Some people fell silent, some were skeptical, and some jokingly spoke the truth.

"Of course it's true. The big shot from the Divine Flower Gathering, Yun Chu, lent me the Star Gold Core. If it weren't for that, I might have died." Qi Yuan replied seriously.

If you use your own things, can't you call it borrowing?

At the same time, in a Cave Mansion in the Eastern Land.

The man in golden clothes looked at the contents of the jade slip, silent.

He had watched the battle between Blood Robe Sword God and Clear Light Palace, but left halfway through because he had already concluded that Blood Robe Sword God would lose.

He didn't expect the situation to change dramatically in the end.

The white-haired old man next to him asked, "Is what he said true or false?"

The man in golden clothes recalled the blood-colored figure he had seen that day and slowly said, "He exuded an overwhelming aura of blood, so he should be a formidable devil who has slaughtered millions.

I observed from afar and didn't detect any divinity in him, so he couldn't be an Yin God.

Summoning the sun... is too horrifying.

Apart from the legendary figure, who in our Ash Water World can hold a divine position and illuminate all realms?"

When it came to that person, a deep fear filled the man in golden clothes' eyes.

He didn't even dare to mention that person's name.

The old man's heart sank when he heard this.

Because that person... was unspeakable.

"Rather than saying that he summoned the sun, I believe more that he had assistance.

When he killed the messenger of Venerable Ye Qiong, he mentioned the name of the Wind Lord.

If it is the Wind Lord, then... it's normal.

However... a great calamity is approaching, and all the Yin gods will refrain from taking action unless necessary, in order to preserve their strength.

Why would the Wind Lord intervene?"

"Rather than the stingy old man Wind Lord taking action, I would rather believe that it was the Blood-Clad Sword God who summoned the sun." The old man was from the Seeking Dao Palace, the same generation as the Wind Lord, and they knew each other when they were young.

Unfortunately, one became a Yin god, while the other was still seeking the Violet Palace Late Stage.

He was most familiar with the Wind Lord's character.

"Ah, you came back too soon. A powerful being like the Blood-Clad Sword God should have been absorbed into our Seeking Dao Palace.

His strength is even greater than that of Senior Wu Tian." The old man sighed.

Senior Wu Tian was among the top in the Violet Palace Late Stage within the Seeking Dao Palace.

"He survived this time, but he has completely offended Venerable Ye Qiong. I estimate that he won't live much longer!" The man in golden clothes couldn't help but say.

"He can destroy the Clear Light Palace, but he can't kill Venerable Ye Qiong?" The old man chuckled.

The man in golden clothes gave the old man a disdainful look. "The Clear Light Palace only has a damaged Yin god Law Weapon. How can it be compared to the real Venerable Ye Qiong?"

"You know too much. Can the person who easily destroyed the Clear Light Palace not kill Venerable Ye Qiong?" The old man continued to smile, "Unfortunately, I can't leave recently. Otherwise, I would definitely go and meet this Blood-Clad Sword God."

...

At this moment, Qi Yuan enjoyed the praise of everyone and felt elated.

At this time, a comment caught his eye.

"Blood-Clad Sword God, I heard that you killed the messenger of Venerable Ye Qiong on your way to the Clear Light Palace?"

"Yes, I killed him," Qi Yuan replied.

Seeing Qi Yuan's reply, some people were puzzled, as they didn't know who Venerable Ye Qiong was.

However, in the Divine Flower Gathering, there were many big shots.

"To dare kill a Yin god's messenger, you are truly strong, big shot... You should leave the Eastern Land as soon as possible, senior!" someone replied.

The cultivators who paid attention to this post were shocked.

Little Li from the Fox Den looked at the content with a blank expression.

She had just commented in the post, boasting that she and the Blood-Clad Sword God were together, defeating all enemies.

But no one told her that the enemy was a Yin god.

She was going crazy, pulling her hair, "Sob, sob, I will never go back to you again!"

But when she thought about how she had become closer to the Blood-Clad Sword God and how others called her Sister Li, she couldn't help herself.

Qi Yuan looked at the comments below and replied.

"His messenger threatened me, saying he would kill me, so I had to strike first.

If Venerable Ye Qiong is also so short-sighted, I will let him know why the sun is so red!"

The cultivators in the Divine Flower Gathering were completely astonished when they saw the Blood-Clad Sword God's reply.

If killing Venerable Ye Qiong's messenger was offending him, then these words were a complete provocation!

"Senior is too fierce!"

"Senior, please take care of yourself!"

Qi Yuan casually glanced at the comments, then switched accounts and logged into the chat group of the Four Emperors of the Divine Flower.

"I have good news for everyone, the 'Hundred Days to Destroy the Clear Light Palace Plan' has been completed ahead of schedule!"

"Big shot 666!"

"I knew it, Origin Heavenly Venerable is not an ordinary person."

Rogue Immortal Venerable and Ice Mountain Tyrant Lady praised him.

"What about Great Sun Burning Sovereign?" Qi Yuan asked, feeling that something was missing without someone praising him.

"He was here a few hours ago, but then he said his family's master was looking for him, so he didn't show up. He probably offended his family's master and was put under house arrest."

"I see." Qi Yuan felt a bit disappointed.

"Origin Heavenly Venerable, my sisters want to meet you and thank you in person because you earned nearly ten million spirit stones."

"It's a small matter, no need to meet in person."

"It's better not to meet. If those vixens see you, they'll probably strip you naked." Ice Mountain Tyrant Lady spoke with her usual domineering tone.

Rogue Immortal Venerable looked at these comments and swallowed his saliva.

He also wanted to have his clothes stripped off by Fairy Sister.

"There's a sister whose family runs the Seven Melodies Pavilion. She said that from now on, when you visit her place, everything will be free."

"Seven Melodies Pavilion?" Rogue Immortal Venerable drooled with envy.

That was even more high-end than the Cloud Court.

Doesn't that mean that Origin Heavenly Venerable can freeload in the future?

"I don't lack these things. What I lack the most now are cultivation techniques. The more, the better, and the higher the grade, the better." Qi Yuan spoke up.

He wasn't interested in freeloading.

Only cultivation techniques were what he lacked the most.

Originally, he was looking forward to meeting the old man and old lady from the Clear Light Palace, but... they were too weak, just sunbathing and getting themselves burned.

No techniques or legacies were left behind.

The headquarters of Clear Light Palace was also dragged into the virtual realm, and everything was gone.

Long-awaited techniques are gone, and Qi Yuan has to find them elsewhere.

Ice Mountain Tyrant Lady said, "Leave it to me. Today, I'm going to squeeze some benefits out of them!"

"Thank you, Ice Mountain Tyrant Lady, for everything. I'm going offline now as the Eastland's Proud Warhorse competition is about to begin. I need to work harder, or else it will be embarrassing if I can't make it into the top twenty. By the way, when Great Sun Burning Sovereign comes online, please let him know that I won't disappoint everyone and will destroy Clear Light Palace."

Hooligan Immortal Venerable was completely dumbfounded when he saw this.

"Origin Heavenly Venerable... Are you also participating in the battle of the East Land's prodigies?"

The person from the Clear Light Palace said that he was going to participate in the battle of the East Land's prodigies?

Playing house, huh?

You should know that the participants in the battle of the East Land's prodigies cannot be over two hundred years old.

Origin Heavenly Venerable, at the very least, must be over a thousand years old, right?

Hooligan Immortal Venerable's thoughts were naturally unknown to Qi Yuan.

At this moment, he returned to his Cave Mansion and continued perfecting the "Qi Yuan Scripture."

"The path of Primal Core is to become bigger and stronger. My Gold Core is a star, so by constantly devouring other stars in the universe, I can become stronger."

After obtaining the True Sun Fire, Qi Yuan has a clear understanding of how to proceed on his path of Primal Core.

However, his cultivation method is not yet perfect.

"Gold Core is a star, but what is Divine Infant?" Qi Yuan was stunned.

Although he has read many scriptures, his understanding of Divine Infant is only superficial.

...

The next day, Qi Yuan looked at the small sun in the sky and thought of Ning Tao again.

Unfortunately, there is still very little spiritual energy in his dantian.

Killing a Violet Palace cultivator is not a problem, but summoning the Gold Core and Ning Tao is still far from enough.

"It's because the Qi Yuan Scripture is too lacking, that's why the recovery of spiritual energy is so slow," Qi Yuan sighed.

He thought for a moment and looked towards Jiang Ya not far away, his eyes brightening.

She is a wealthy woman, and her wealth aligns with what Qi Yuan lacks.

"Jiang Ya, Senior Sister, you have extensive knowledge, and I have a question. I wonder if I can seek your advice?" Qi Yuan asked.

Jiang Ya looked at Qi Yuan and replied concisely, "Yes."

"Now that I have reached the Primal Core stage, I am still confused about the path to the Divine Infant," Qi Yuan said with a dejected expression.

"The path to the Divine Infant..." Jiang Ya was about to speak.

At this moment, Qi Yuan spoke up.

"I have cultivated the foundation of Qi Refining with the Five Elements' energy; I have built the Heavenly Dao Foundation Building and formed the Eternal Star Gold Core. What kind of Divine Infant is worthy of my level?" he asked.

Jiang Ya fell silent.

Although she organized her thoughts, she couldn't find the right words to say.

She told herself to smile and be elegant.

Jiang Ya looked at Qi Yuan and said, "Perhaps there is someone who can give you an answer."

"Who?" Qi Yuan asked anxiously.

"The fourth-ranked genius on the Eastern Land's Proud Talent List, the Great Wisdom True Monarch," Jiang Ya said calmly.

"What a great name! He must be a clever person!" Qi Yuan's eyes lit up.

Having heard of his reputation, he could already imagine that this person was truly talented.

"He and you are both cultivators on the path of obsession, and... he has already reached the Divine Infant stage. Perhaps he can give you some advice," Jiang Ya said. "If Junior Brother Qi Yuan wants to meet him, I can arrange it for you now."

"Meet him!" Qi Yuan exclaimed.

Of course, he wanted to meet him!

"Alright," Jiang Ya turned around and took out a communication jade slip.

...

Night fell, and the flower boat docked by the shore.

A man with a big hairstyle and flower-patterned pants, wearing a robe that didn't fit him well, stood out on the flower boat.

However, the people on the boat looked at the man with awe.

Because this man was the fourth-ranked genius on the Eastern Land's Proud Talent List, the Great Wisdom True Monarch.

At this moment, the Great Wisdom True Monarch's gaze was clear as he stared at the hand of a female cultivator next to him, making her feel embarrassed.

The woman had delicate features, long and slender jade-like fingers, fair and smooth skin. On her long nails, there was a faint touch of rouge, giving her a pure and beautiful appearance.

"The Fairy Fengyue's pair of jade hands is exquisite and priceless. Great Wisdom True Monarch, are you also a practitioner in this field?" a young genius in a hemp robe next to him couldn't help but say, trying to get closer to the Great Wisdom True Monarch.

True Monarch Dazhi looked at those delicate jade hands, his gaze clear and thoughtful.

"Is she keeping her nails so long to pick her nose?"

Silence.

A moment of silence fell upon the flower boat, and even the talented Tianjiao who had just spoken couldn't find anything to say.

The Fairy of Wind and Moon blushed and her expression kept changing, as if she wanted to disappear into the ground.

Just then, a hearty voice rang out, "My suggestion is, if you want to pick your nose, don't paint your nails, it will hurt your nose."

A man in black robes stepped onto the flower boat.

He looked at True Monarch Dazhi with reverence, "I am Qi Yuan. Senior Sister Jiang Ya asked me to seek guidance from True Monarch Dazhi regarding the matter of the Divine Infant!"

The others looked at Qi Yuan, then glanced at True Monarch Dazhi, their expressions complex.

As for the Fairy of Wind and Moon, she glared fiercely at Qi Yuan.

She didn't dare to offend True Monarch Dazhi, but she dared to offend this unknown Qi Yuan.

True Monarch Dazhi looked at Qi Yuan, his eyes brightened, "How do you think the Fairy of Wind and Moon should pick her nose better?"

"Hmm." Qi Yuan sat down next to True Monarch Dazhi and pondered, "Using nails to pick is indeed uncouth.

Fairies don't poop or pick their noses.

So, why not create a Dao technique specifically for picking noses?"

"Fellow Daoist, you are truly talented!" True Monarch Dazhi looked at Qi Yuan, his face filled with excitement.

Qi Yuan looked at True Monarch Dazhi and felt a sense of familiarity.

At this moment, a sudden voice came.

"Oh no, the Fairy of Wind and Moon fell into the river!"

Everyone looked at the Fairy of Wind and Moon in the river, their gazes filled with pity.

Seeing this, True Monarch Dazhi slowly said, "The Fairy of Wind and Moon must have been inspired by Fellow Daoist Qi Yuan and entered the river to comprehend the flow of water, thus creating a Dao technique specifically for picking noses."

Upon hearing this, everyone present mourned for the Fairy of Wind and Moon in their hearts.

It is estimated that tomorrow, the Fairy of Wind and Moon will have an additional nickname, the Nose-Picking Fairy.

Qi Yuan nodded, getting straight to the point, "Fellow Daoist, I have always felt uncertain about the path to the Divine Infant.

I have heard that in order to condense the Divine Infant, one must shatter the Gold Core and form the infant.

But I have worked so hard to condense my Gold Core, I can't bear to shatter it.

What should I do?"

How could Qi Yuan bear to shatter his painstakingly condensed star-like Gold Core?

That was his child.

Beside him, the others were stunned by Qi Yuan's words.

There are people who don't want to shatter their Gold Core and form the infant?

Has this person gone mad from cultivating immortality?

No wonder... he can communicate with True Monarch Dazhi so smoothly.

True Monarch Dazhi looked at Qi Yuan and pondered, "Ah, I didn't expect us to have the same thoughts.

When I was just at the Foundation Building stage, I pondered this question."

Qi Yuan couldn't help but look up at True Monarch Dazhi.

This was truly a visionary Tianjiao!

When he was at the Foundation Building stage, how could he have thought about the Divine Infant?

But this person had thought about it.

"In the end, after much contemplation, I created a dual-core technique." True Monarch Dazhi proudly said.

"I first condensed a false core, then condensed a Gold Core.

Finally, when I broke through to the Divine Infant stage, I shattered the false core and left behind the Gold Core.

So now, I have a Gold Core and a Divine Infant in my body!"

The false core is a core formed by Foundation Building cultivators who have no hope of breaking through to the Gold Core stage, using external objects to condense a false core.

Qi Yuan was stunned by True Monarch Dazhi's train of thought.

This is what it means to be a Tianjiao, what it means to be wise.

"But, this method has a flaw, which is that the Gold Core and Divine Infant in my body often fight." True Monarch Dazhi said with distress.

The Tianjiao beside him looked at True Monarch Dazhi speechlessly.

Not only do your Gold Core and Divine Infant fight, you even fight with yourself.

They knew that True Monarch Dazhi had split personalities, and there were already two personalities in his body.

"This small problem is not a problem." Qi Yuan said nonchalantly, "Excellent techniques always have some problems. The technique I created also has flaws. After practicing it, one will become mentally confused and have a poor memory.

But look at me now, my mind is fine, I can eat eight steamed buns in one go!"

Everyone looked at Qi Yuan and instantly understood.

This is what it means to have a fine mind?

At the same time, they felt even more pity for the Fairy of Wind and Moon.

Why did she attract the attention of two mentally ill people? How unfortunate.

"Unfortunately, I have already entered the Primal Core Realm and can no longer cultivate the dual-core technique." Qi Yuan sighed.

True Monarch Dazhi's path was not suitable for him.

Those who understand, understand. Tomorrow morning at six.
