- Chapter 31: Breakthrough – The Great Dao Golden Core
In this moment, all the surviving cultivators in Renhuai County looked at this scene with some confusion.
“Grand Ancestor Lin, wasn’t he at the early Foundation Establishment Realm? What can he do at this time, even if he takes action?” someone wondered.
“Hiss!”
Suddenly, a deafening serpent’s cry echoed from the direction of Azure Heaven Mountain.
“Heavens and Earth Unite!”
A plain voice resounded throughout the world, and in the next moment, a towering black and white serpent that seemed to stretch across the entire sky appeared between Heaven and Earth. Preliminary estimates put its length at thirty thousand meters, coiling and standing thousands of meters tall, seemingly dominating the entire sky.
Everyone stared at the black and white serpent, their minds blank.
[Innate Divine Ability: Heaven and Earth Unity!
Effect: By borrowing the power of Heaven and Earth, the host’s body size is increased a hundredfold, and their strength grows with the size.]
“It’s Grand Ancestor!”
“Grand Ancestor has finally taken action! We’re saved!”
“He’s so strong! I never expected Grand Ancestor to have this trick, how cool!”
In the direction of Renhuai County, the Lin family members watched Lin Xuan, who had revealed his true form, with excitement on their faces. They could charge out of the Azure Heaven Mountain barrier without hesitation, and they couldn’t have done it without the confidence Grand Ancestor gave them.
On the side, Zhuge Wuyi and several other external Foundation Establishment cultivators exchanged bewildered looks. Was this the Lin family’s rumored early Foundation Establishment Realm Grand Ancestor? Impossible! This information was beyond belief.
With the obvious aura of Foundation Establishment peak and the massive body of this uncle, everyone believed that he possessed Golden Core Realm strength.
In Azure Heaven Square, many cultivators gazed up at Lin Xuan’s colossal body, their mouths agape, but they also felt a glimmer of hope. It seemed like they might be saved!
“Swallowing Heavens!”
Suddenly, the black and white serpent spoke again, and its voice resounded across several hundred miles of Renhuai County.
“Boom!”
The next moment, the serpent opened its enormous mouth, and a terrifying swallowing force emerged. Countless black-scaled monsters, almost completely defenseless, were swept up by the devouring force and entered Lin Xuan’s mouth. In just an instant, about one-third of the Foundation Establishment monsters had vanished.
The monsters below the Foundation Establishment level had directly been reduced by half.
“Buzz!”
Perhaps sensing the imminent threat to their lives, all the monsters in Renhuai County’s territory went berserk. They turned into black mist and quickly reassembled in the center of Renhuai County, forming a colossal black shadow over two thousand meters tall.
A terrifying Golden Core aura spread throughout the entire county. Everyone’s gaze turned heavy and their expressions grave. Was Lin Xuan, the Grand Ancestor from the Lin family, still a match for a Golden Core Realm monster?
If it were anyone else, they would naturally have no confidence. The gap between Foundation Establishment peak and Golden Core was like heaven and earth, with no comparability. However, Lin Xuan’s imposing presence was too overwhelming, and they still held a glimmer of hope. Maybe, they could fight on even terms?
“Boom!”
Just as everyone fantasized, a loud noise reverberated between Heaven and Earth. At that very moment, countless living beings in Renhuai County were dumbfounded.
In their sight, the black and white serpent had directly whipped the Golden Core monster to pieces with its tail. It was as if the difference in their sizes matched the difference in their realms.
The black and white serpent, over thirty thousand meters long, ignored the gap in realms and directly shattered the two-thousand-meter-tall black shadow.
“Buzz!”
The swallowing force intensified, and the shattered Golden Core monster’s remnants, scattered as a chaotic black mist, had no chance to resist. Lin Xuan swallowed them all in one gulp.
A quarter of an hour later, hundreds of miles around Renhuai County, not a trace of the ominous black aura could be found. Above the sky, dark clouds billowed, stretching over a thousand miles, with countless flashes of purple lightning amidst the darkness.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
…
Nine massive bolts of heavenly lightning, each a hundred meters thick, descended from the heavens, as if connecting the realm of mortals and the divine, heading straight for Lin Xuan.
The residents of Renhuai County tightened their gaze, and one of them asked with concern, “Daoist Zhuge, what’s happening here? After slaying those monsters, are we to face divine retribution?”
Lin Xiuqi looked at Zhuge Wuyi, his expression solemn. Zhuge Wuyi shook his head and explained, “Family Head Lin, take a closer look. This is the Golden Core Tribulation, and your revered ancestor is currently undergoing it. It seems that devouring those dark auras has brought great fortune to your revered ancestor.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuqi scrutinized the sky carefully. Indeed, amidst the destruction within the thunder, there was a sense of Golden Core Dao intent. As he watched the Grand Ancestor, who was swallowing the Heavenly Tribulation with ease, Lin Xiuqi’s heart settled.
At the center of the Heavenly Tribulation, Lin Xuan was feeling extremely content. Having already accumulated sufficient cultivation, devouring the dark auras had led to a complete breakthrough.
Under the heavenly thunder, Lin Xuan felt his cultivation, physical body, vital energy, and spirit converging within his abdomen. A basketball-sized Golden Core slowly materialized, radiating a brilliant golden light.
Countless purple sparks of Dao intent emerged from every corner of his body, merging into the Golden Core. At this moment, Lin Xuan’s already perfect Foundation Golden Core began another evolution.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for assimilating Dao intents and obtaining the Daoist Golden Core!]
[Ding! The host has resolved the Heavenly Tribulation and gained ten thousand merit points. Merit points are being consumed to forge the Daoist Golden Core.]
Within three seconds of the system’s announcement, another message followed: [Ding! The system has detected insufficient merit points and is forcibly intervening to condense the Great Dao Golden Core.]
Lin Xuan was somewhat dazed by the successive reminders from the system. It appeared that the perfect Foundation Golden Core was not the end; there were Daoist Golden Cores and even Great Dao Golden Cores above it.
Resolving the Heavenly Tribulation would indeed grant merit rewards. Lin Xuan wasn’t surprised; he had helped rectify the wrongs of the heavens and saved countless lives, so he naturally deserved some compensation. It’s just that he didn’t expect to run out of merit points in less than three seconds, thankfully, the system was efficient.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully breaking through to the Golden Core Realm and condensing the Great Dao Golden Core!]
