In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. On the surface, Hanyuan Gate looked no different from before, but in reality, it was much more heavily guarded than before.
This move was not to guard against Taoist Nun Wei, but because the Wang sisters had already reached the stage where the medicine would condense into a pill. Zhang Yan had also taken time out to personally protect them these few days, so he could not allow the slightest mishap inside or outside. To prevent any accidents from happening, even Zhang Boyan personally went to guard the gate.
Under Zhang Yan's twenty years of management, Cang Zhu Peak was no longer what it used to be. The formation gate was as strong as a celestial city, and every formation was guarded by a disciple he had personally taught. Without the token given by the sect master, anyone flying in the sky would definitely be struck down by the formation thunder. It was rare to see such emphasis on the defense of the gate in Dong Sheng Continent.
Zhang Boyan sat in a temple on the left of the gate. This place guarded the mountain path, and anyone who entered or exited would be immediately detected by him. At this moment, he was holding the Sadness and Happiness Puppet in his hand, turning it over and over, his eyes flashing with uncertainty.
A voice came from outside, "Master, your disciple is here."
Zhang Boyan did not even raise his head, and said in a deep voice, "Come in."
Footsteps sounded, and a tall, handsome youth walked into the hall. It was Zhao Yang, who went up the mountain alone to become a disciple at a young age. He came up and bowed respectfully, saying, "Master, your disciple has successfully opened his meridians."
After becoming a disciple of Zhang Boyan, he only started to cultivate the Source Seeking Scripture at the age of fourteen, practicing the method of splitting the soul.
Because there were no demons in the mountain, Zhang Yan had strict rules that forbade killing, so he could only suck the essence and blood of demons. After a few years, his essence had become extremely strong. Twenty days ago, he went to the Jade Elixir Pool to open his meridians, and Just Now was the day he came out.
Zhang Boyan's gaze roamed around his body, and he shouted, "Show me your pulse."
Zhao Yang responded, and he activated his technique. After ten breaths, a thick yellow cloud appeared on his body. A thick yellow cloud gradually appeared on his body. It was like sand that gathered together and did not disperse for a long time.
Zhang Boyan's eyes flashed, Zhao Yang's was probably of the five elements, it was clear to see, in terms of character he was above average, he thought to himself, "This disciple is indeed fated with me."
He had already thought about it. If Zhao Yang could open a high-grade pulse, Naturally, he would try to find a good cultivation technique for him so that he wouldn't waste his talent.
If it was a low-grade pulse, then he would only be able to teach him some shallow cultivation techniques. In the future, he would only be able to order him around like a servant. It was good that he could be his successor in the future.
He threw the Doll of Sorrow and Joy into Zhao Yang's arms and said, "Take it, I'll give you this magical treasure. From tomorrow onwards, I'll teach you my sect's Xuan technique."
Zhao Yang was overjoyed and grabbed the doll tightly. He knelt down and kowtowed, "Disciple thanks Master."
At first, he was a little disappointed that he couldn't become Zhang Yan's disciple. However, Zhang Boyan was a Yuanying Zhenren after all, so he felt lucky. After all these years of contact. He felt that his Master was really deep and immeasurable.
Zhao Yang's father was from the Fu Yang Sect and he had personally seen him fight with a few people from the same sect. However, even if those few people worked together, they wouldn't be his match. Thinking about the future, with a wave of his hand. He would be like Zhang Boyan, having thousands of demons by his side. His heart was filled with passion.
At this moment, the mountain bell rang. Zhang Boyan listened and got up, "The Manor Head has come out."
Zhao Yang looked towards the peak and said, "After the two Senior Sisters form their Pellets, our Deep Abyss Sect will have two more Pellet Transformation Cultivators."
Zhang Boyan heard the envy in his words and scoffed, "Pellet Transformation Cultivators aren't much. With your talent, as long as you cultivate hard, you will be able to step into that realm in 100 years."
Zhao Yang said respectfully, "My disciple will certainly not disgrace Master."
Zhang Boyan chuckled. Zhao Yang was young, but he already had some shrewdness. However, many of the techniques of the Netherworld Spring Sect required people with a sharp mind to cultivate. This kind of mind was more to Zhang Boyan's liking. He said, "If that's the case, there's no need for tomorrow. You can come back with me now."
With a turn of his body, he'd already transformed into a strand of thick yellow smoke that surged into the air. He swept Zhao Yang up and returned to the abode.
In the cave abode of Cang Zhu Peak, the Wang sisters' faces were glowing. White smoke was coming out of their noses and all the acupoints on their bodies were emitting a dense mist that floated three feet around them.
Just a moment ago, the two of them had formed their Golden Cores at almost the same time. At this moment, they were still dispelling the surging killing intent in their bodies.
Zhang Yan checked and found that the two sisters had formed their Fourth Stage Golden Cores. Although they had no chance of entering the top three stages, their foundations were still solid. If they cultivated hard, it would not be an extravagant hope for them to reach Yuanying after two or three hundred years. If they wanted to advance further, it would depend on their own luck.
After a moment, Wang Caiting was the first to wake up. After looking inside her body, she knew that from now on, she was already a Core Transformation Cultivator. A wave of joy immediately surged in her heart. She directly bowed down on the praying mat and said, "Disciple thanks Master for protecting me."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Caiwei seems to have obtained a fated chance. I'm afraid that she will wake up later. Don't disturb her and wait patiently. I still have something to talk to you two about later."
Wang Caiting lightly agreed and sat back down. She carefully felt the various differences after forming her Golden Core and before.
Just Now that Wang Caiwei had formed her Golden Core, she felt the Yin Killing Blade hidden in the acupoint between her eyebrows jump slightly. Almost in an instant, a cultivation technique flowed into her mind.
Ever since she obtained this Killing True Weapon, she had been practicing the Yin Yang Origin Flying Blade of the Chongyue True Temple. It was only because of her cultivation level that she couldn't learn a superior cultivation technique. Now that she had stepped into the Core Transformation Stage, the magic treasure impatiently passed on the cultivation technique to her.
Wang Caiwei had heard that using the opportunity of breaking through to the next realm to comprehend a cultivation technique could yield twice the result with half the effort. Therefore, she didn't miss the opportunity and carefully comprehended it. When she came out of her meditative state, she found that six hours had passed. She hurriedly stood up and apologized, "Caiwei is afraid that Master has been waiting for a long time."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "It's alright. Fated chances are hard to come by and can't be sought. Caiwei, it's a good thing that you were able to grasp it."
Speaking up to this point, his gaze swept over the two of them and said, "After entering the Core Transformation Stage, the two of you can practice Divine Abilities. The Divine Abilities that I'm good at are difficult to practice, and according to the sect's rules, I can't teach them lightly. Fortunately, there are a few Divine Abilities in the Jade Shade Sect that can be practiced without the need of a fusion cultivation technique. I'll teach them to you now. Take them back and diligently comprehend them."
He waved his hand and two jade slips flew down.
Wang Caiting raised her wrist and received them. She inserted a strand of spiritual energy into them and a cultivation technique appeared in front of her eyes. After looking at it, she discovered that this Divine Ability was called "Burning Orchid and Wormwood Together". This technique cultivated a strand of clear energy in the ancestral aperture. When fighting with someone, if the opponent used a powerful Dao technique or Divine Ability, she only needed to give up this energy and it would turn into Essence Qi of the same origin. It would no longer cause any changes. It was very strange. The only flaw of this technique was that after using it, it would take a long time to cultivate it.
However, when this energy was released, it was like an orchid or musk. It had an endless delicate fragrance and was misty like a cloud immortal. Not only did it look good, but it also didn't have any worldly aura. It was exactly what she wanted, so she happily accepted it.
Wang Caiwei took the jade slip and examined it. A supernatural power also appeared in her mind. This technique was called "Accumulating Feathers and Sinking Boat". This supernatural power was completely used in fights of magical powers. Normally, one could absorb the magical power that one cultivated into a bead. When fighting with others, one could release the qi and subdue the enemy in the blink of an eye.
However, this technique had a similar flaw to the "Burning Orchid and Wormwood Together". After accumulating mana and using it once, one would need to spend time to refine it again. However, she already had the Demon Slayer Blade, so this technique had another killing move.
Seeing that both of them were happy, Zhang Yan smiled and said, "I said before that whoever has the highest Core Realm can go to Donghua. Now that both of you have achieved the Fourth Grade Gold Core, I might as well let you go back together so that you can take care of each other on the way. However, there are thunderbolts blocking the way back and forth in the open sea. I'll give you the Dragon Country's Ocean Boat. It's already the end of the year, so there's no need to rush to leave. Go back and consolidate your cultivation. After spring, you can choose a suitable day to go out to sea."
With a snap of his fingers, a ball of smoke wrapped around a small boat and flew out. He had already given the Dragon Country's Ocean Boat. The two sisters hurriedly and carefully received it.
Zhang Yan waved his sleeve and said, "Both of you can leave now."
The Wang sisters acknowledged and bowed deeply before retreating from the cave.
After the two of them left, they were both excited and used their Core Fiend Flight Technique. After circling the mountain for more than two hours, they finally floated down the peak together.
At this moment, someone came up from the mountain path. It was Chu Mu Ran. He looked at the smoke at the feet of the two girls and asked with a smile, "Martial Nieces, what grade of Core Realm have you achieved?"
The Wang sisters floated down from the cloud of smoke. On the street, Wang Caiwei said, "We've both achieved the Fourth Grade Gold Core. We've embarrassed ourselves in front of Martial Uncle Chu."
When Chu Mu Ran heard that both of them had achieved the Fourth Grade Gold Core, he praised, "Martial Nieces, you are indeed talented."
From his point of view, it was extremely difficult to achieve a Golden Core of the upper three grades. It was rare even in the five major sects, and those who could achieve it were all direct disciples. He himself was barely at the Sixth Grade, so if he could achieve the Fourth Grade Gold Core, he would most likely achieve the Yuanying Realm the next day.
However, the Wang sisters didn't think much of themselves. Master Zhang Yan aside, there were only a few people in the past ten thousand years who had achieved the First Grade Gold Core. Eldest Senior Sister Liu Yanyi had achieved the Second Grade Gold Core, and Wei Zihong had entered the sect later than them, but he had achieved the Third Grade Gold Core. In comparison, the Fourth Grade Gold Core wasn't even worth mentioning. Thus, they only took Chu Mu Ran's words as a courtesy and thanked him before leaving the mountain.
Chu Mu Ran watched the two of them leave and suddenly sighed. He shook his head and continued up the mountain. When he arrived at Zhang Yan's cave, he was called in after sending a message. When he entered the inner room, he bowed and said, "Greetings, Sect Head Senior Brother."
Zhang Yan smiled and asked, "Junior Brother, is there anything you need from me?"
Chu Mu Ran hurriedly said, "Senior Brother, you asked me to find out about that Daoist Nun Wei's background. I've already gotten some news. That person's background is indeed not small. She's a disciple of that Small Warehouse Realm."
Zhang Yan's eyes flashed and he nodded. "She's indeed a disciple of that realm."
After all, he had been in the Dongsheng Continent for more than twenty years. In order to search for pill ingredients, he paid attention to collecting secret information from all over the world. When he heard Wei Shuling mention the two words' Yue Country 'that day, he had already guessed her identity. This was because the Small Warehouse Realm was within this country's borders.
Chu Mu Ran said, "The disciples of the Small Warehouse Realm have a wide network of friends. The last time that Daoist Nun Wei asked for a disciple, she probably wouldn't give up. Senior Brother, you should be on your guard."
