"That's … Golden … Golden Core!?" When he saw this, Die Shazi's emotions, which were on the verge of breaking down, finally snapped.
"There's a double vein! It's a second-grade Golden Core! " For a time, he felt dizzy. He had difficulty breathing. It was as if the circulation of his spirit was affected.
Die Shazi snapped out of his shock. He realized that he was surrounded by countless Core Qi. The cold Core Qi was like water. It tried to seep into his body through his pores.
The Core Qi in his body was being depleted rapidly. In just a few breaths, he had used up more than half of his Core Qi. In addition to that, he had unleashed his ultimate sword skill.
'Am I going to die here today?' Die Shazi hugged his senior apprentice sister tightly. An incredulous thought flashed through his mind.
It was only now that he noticed that he was not completely destroyed. It was only because his Natal Spirit Talisman, which was connected to his life, was releasing its supernatural power to defend him.
However, the Spirit Veins on the talisman's surface were disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was clear that it could not last much longer.
This was supposed to be his trump card, but at this time, it was inexplicably used to save his life and defend himself …
"How can he have so much Core Qi?!" Die Shazi looked at Lu Sheng from afar. He could only see Lu Sheng's silhouette through the blue Core Qi.
"Die Shazi, I'm killing you today to settle the karma between us. Back then, I pretended to be heavily injured by you and fled overseas. I didn't expect that I'd have the chance to settle the score today. "Lu Sheng's voice came from afar.
"The Vital Energy Sect … won't forgive you!" Die Shazi smiled bitterly and hugged his senior apprentice sister tightly. He was ready to die.
"I'll say the same to your esteemed sect." Lu Sheng's expression was indifferent. He spread his palms, and more Core Qi surged out of his body.
"From this day onward, those who obey me shall prosper, and those who oppose me shall perish!"
His voice had barely faded when blue Core Qi expanded wantonly. In the blink of an eye, it covered an area of several thousand meters.
As the Core Qi surged out, a huge amount of seawater was drawn from below. The seawater surged and surged. The seawater flew up and surged into the Core Qi. It formed a miraculous sight like a waterspout.
Under such circumstances, Lu Sheng was actually guiding the seawater into his Golden Core to break through to the next realm!
In just a few seconds, his Qi had broken through to the middle stage of the Core Formation realm. The amount of Dan Qi in his body was even more terrifying. It expanded from thousands of meters to tens of thousands of meters, and the range of the waves he triggered had reached hundreds of miles.
Lu Sheng's Qi broke through the advanced stage of the completion level and entered the perfect realm. For a moment, the Core Qi in his body was majestic to an unimaginable extent.
If his Core Qi was a few hundred times greater than Die Shazi's when he was in the early stage of the Core Formation realm, then his current Core Qi was at least a thousand times greater than cultivators in the same realm.
His Mental Energy was converted into transcendence energy at every stage, and his Core Qi was filled to the brim to the point where it could no longer be filled. As he leveled up step by step, the result was that Lu Sheng's Golden Core was unprecedentedly powerful.
From afar, it was as if the sky above the Wood Martial Abode was covered in blue clouds.
This was the first time Lu Sheng had fully displayed the true power of this body. He unleashed the gushing Core Qi from within his Golden Core without restraint. Countless Spiritual Qi of the heavens and the earth were drawn into his Golden Core. Then, they were quickly converted into blue Core Qi and shrouded the surroundings.
Compared to the vast range of the blue clouds, the area of the sea below that was stirred up by the waves was even more exaggerated.
The seawater within hundreds of miles was shaking violently. A faint buzzing sound slowly spread through the air as if something unknown was vibrating rapidly.
In the center, beneath the blue clouds, the seawater formed a tornado that surged into the sky.
Die Shazi and the other Venerable White Daoist struggled to hang on in the clouds with their spirit talismans. They rose and fell with the waves of the blue clouds. They were on the verge of collapsing at any moment.
At this moment, on the surface of the sea that was hundreds of miles away from the Wood Martial Abode, a black cloud shot toward them from afar.
A few strange-looking cultivators sat on the black cloud. They were none other than the Black Daoist, Venerable White Sand, and the others who had agreed to attack the Vital Energy Sect together.
The Black Daoist's face was as black as charcoal. His black eyes were fixed on the blue clouds in the distant sky. His expression was grim.
'Since when did such an elite appear in the overseas cultivators' world? With such might, he's at least at the level of the Seventh Tribulation of the Core Formation realm! '
The Venerable White Sand swept his gaze across the surface of the sea beneath the black cloud with slight shock. Even here, the surface of the sea was still trembling violently.
'This supernatural power … is too ridiculous, isn't it?' The Venerable White Sand's face twitched. He had only seen such a large-scale fluctuation of supernatural power when Nine Dragon True Lord was being ganged up on.
However, at that time, it was caused by the combined efforts of several True Lords. Right now, a single person was causing such a huge phenomenon.
At this moment, the sound of voices came from the distant sky.
"… Those who obey me shall prosper, and those who oppose me shall perish …" That was the crucial moment when Lu Sheng unleashed his great might and officially announced that he would no longer conceal himself.
'What arrogance! If it weren't for the fact that Nine Dragon True Lord isn't here … 'The Black Daoist was displeased. Although this elite before him possessed terrifying strength, it would be a grave mistake to say that he could suppress all the North Sea cultivators and demons just like that.
'Who's this person? With his cultivation base, I'm afraid that the overseas region is going to fall into chaos again.' The Black Daoist looked at the blue clouds from afar.
"Then, why did we come here together …?" The Venerable White Sand asked helplessly. Initially, they had planned to attack the Vital Energy Sect in secret. However, it seemed like someone had beaten them to it.
"With such a big shot of the Wicked Path appearing in the North Sea, I'm afraid there's going to be trouble in the future." The Black Daoist stared at Die Shazi and the other man who were struggling to hold on. With a poof, Die Shazi could no longer hold on. He was engulfed by the blue clouds and vanished in the blink of an eye.
The other Wicked Cultivators knew very well what a Wicked Path elite with a cultivation base of the Seven Tribulations Tier represented.
"Let's go back. We'll wait and see. Let's see how long this big shot who's fighting the Vital Energy Sect can last. The Vital Energy Sect isn't to be trifled with …" The Black Daoist raised his hand and gestured for the others to return.
"What about the Earth Lake Sword …" a demon cultivator could not help but ask softly.
The Venerable White Sand snorted coldly. "With such a big shot here, are we going to be stuck between his teeth? Even the Vital Energy Sect's hidden elder was killed. It's only natural that the Earth Lake Sword is in this person's hands. "
The other demon cultivators and Wicked Cultivators fell silent. They wondered what kind of chain reaction would be triggered by the appearance of such a Wicked Path elite in the overseas cultivators' world.
As the Black Daoist and the others returned and dispersed, the plan to retaliate against the Vital Energy Sect that was originally planned to turn against them died in the womb.
The identity of the cultivator who suppressed the Vital Energy Sect's elite in the blue clouds was also revealed in the following days. From the Wood Martial Abode's mouth.
The elite who fought the Vital Energy Sect's elite head-on was Taoist Mu Yun, who had been misunderstood as an ordinary rogue cultivator.
It was said that this Taoist Mu Yun had been biding his time and keeping a low profile. Even when he got into trouble with the Vital Energy Sect and was hunted down, he did not reveal his true strength.
It was only after a few decades that his cultivation base had finally reached Mastery. Only then did he unleash his full strength and kill the two Vital Energy Sect's invading elders.
When the rumor spread, most of the Wicked Cultivators, Demons, and Sea Clans within a radius of several hundred miles of the Wood Martial Abode that had witnessed the might of the blue clouds either migrated away or approached the Wood Martial Abode on their own. They attempted to join the Wood Martial Abode.
After all, in the chaotic overseas World of Cultivators, having a powerful backer who could protect them was the dream of any Demon Clan or Evil Cultivator.
Naturally, the number of people who fled was even greater. This was because most of the cultivators were not optimistic about the conflict between the Wood Martial Abode's master and the Vital Energy Sect's elite.
… …
Swaying Gold Mountain in the central plains.
Clouds and mist shrouded the illusory chain of mountains. There was a stream overgrown with weeds by the side of a primeval and natural stream. A white-haired old man sat cross-legged on a large white rock.
The white mist drifted slowly. The old man's white hair draped over his shoulders. He had white brows and a white beard. His expression was calm, and there was a pure white crescent mark between his brows.
His white robes were neat and tidy. It formed a stark contrast with the natural mountains, rocks, and trees around him, which had no traces of human activity.
The old man held a light brown bamboo scroll in his hand. He was casually reading the contents recorded on it with his head lowered.
"Teacher. Du Guangchi and Yao Lian are in trouble. The Earth Lake Sword has fallen into the hands of the Wicked Cultivators. " Not far away, a white cloud descended and revealed itself among the rocks by the stream. It was a black-robed Taoist with a dark face. The Taoist bowed his head and cupped his fists at the old man. He reported respectfully.
"The heavens and the earth are peaceful, and the mortal world is ever-changing. Du Guangchi and Yao Lian have the fortune of the Vital Energy Sect for a thousand years on them. There's no need to worry too much, "the old man replied casually with a smile.
"But even Die Shazi and Sui Yinzi were harmed by that wicked cultivator …" the black-faced Taoist added.
This time, the white-haired old man's smile faded. He frowned slightly, as if he did not understand.
"Die Shazi and Sui Yinzi …? The two of them should've improved by leaps and bounds in recent years … "
"This is strange as well. Die Shazi cooperated with the sect to set up a wicked cultivator who entered the overseas cultivation world decades ago. Now, it's rumored that the wicked cultivator has already mastered his wicked art. His might is threatening. During this arrangement with Du Guangchi, he suddenly erupted and caught Die Shazi and Sui Yinzi off guard," the black-faced Taoist explained in detail.
"What's the name of that wicked cultivator?" The white-haired old man's expression grew more and more puzzled.
"He's the Wood Martial Abode's master. His title is Taoist Mu Yun."
"Taoist Mu Yun …" The old man calculated with his fingers. However, he was shocked to discover that he could not divine anything about this person.
"Is it because he's being concealed by an almighty being, or is his nature unique?" His white brows moved slightly as he pondered.
"Although Die Shazi and Sui Yinzi died in an accident, their Life Mark is still in the sect. They still have the chance to reincarnate and cultivate again. However, we'll have to trouble the Soul's Hidden Peak with this guiding mission. "
When the black-faced Taoist heard this, he hastily lowered his head.
"This is part of our duty. There's no need for you to say more, teacher. How should we deal with that wicked cultivator? Please tell us, teacher. Although he can reincarnate with the Life Mark, this method can only be used three times. After that, he'll completely sink into oblivion. This is an extremely serious provocation to our Vital Energy Sect. If we don't deal with this properly, it'll negatively affect our Vital Energy Sect's reputation in the central plains and other places. "
"Even a lion will do its best to capture a rabbit. Go to the Fourth Peak. Tell Yun Ye to go there personally after he comes out of seclusion. Ever since he became a True Lord, he hasn't gone out for a long time. After getting rid of the wicked cultivator, send him to the Divine Sword Sect, "said the old man drily as he closed his eyes slowly.
"As you command." The black-faced Taoist retreated slowly. A white cloud rose under his feet and carried him into the distant skies.
