Golden Core Banquet
Thunderclouds loomed overhead, and after brewing for a full half hour, a Lightning Tribulation finally struck.
The Old Clan Leader was well-prepared and immediately summoned a third-tier Law Treasure, the Great Geng Immortal Sword that Chen Nianzhi had discarded.
The sword transformed into a dazzling sword light and soared into the sky, obliterating the Lightning Tribulation with a single strike, thus allowing the user to pass through the first Lightning Tribulation.
After slaying the Lightning Tribulation, the power of the Great Geng Immortal Sword was greatly diminished, and it would be in danger of being damaged if it continued to block the lightning. The Old Clan Leader had no shortage of treasures, so he was naturally reluctant to damage the incomparably precious Tier 3 High-grade Law Treasure.
He sheathed the Great Geng Immortal Sword and summoned the Purple-Blood Pagoda and the Kunwu Wutu Bell to block the second and third Lightning Tribulation.
The fourth Lightning Tribulation was already quite Bu Fan, but the Old Clan Leader still possessed a ' Purple-Cyan Tribulation-Avoidance Gourd '.
This treasure is used by the sect to overcome tribulations. Its function is almost equivalent to two or three clan-protecting treasures. Back then, Patriarch Qian gave this item to Chen Nianzhi in exchange for two Violet-Qi Cloud-Pattern Pill. Now it can finally be put to use.
The 'Purple-Azure Tribulation-Avoiding Pearl' emitted dazzling lightning patterns and swallowed the fourth and fifth Lightning Tribulation in succession.
It wasn't until the sixth Lightning Tribulation that the Old Clan Leader summoned the Golden Light Blazing Fire Sword. This Life-Bound Immortal Sword truly lived up to its reputation as the Higher Vehicle Life-bound Magical Treasure; with a single strike, it blazed forth with dazzling golden light, annihilating the sixth Lightning Tribulation.
After extinguishing the Lightning Tribulation, the Old Clan Leader put away the Golden Light Blazing Fire Sword. These last three Lightning Tribulation were extremely powerful, and if this sword were used to undergo the tribulation, it would likely be destroyed.
Generally speaking, ordinary Golden Core realm cultivators would have to pay a huge price to survive the final three Lightning Tribulation if they did not have Tier 4 Magical Treasure.
Back then, in order to block the seventh Lightning Tribulation, Xu Ganyang consumed three Tier 3 High-grade Treasure Talisman treasured by his Lineage. In order to block the eighth Lightning Tribulation, he even destroyed three of his family's most precious treasures.
The ninth Lightning Tribulation was only overcome thanks to the Chen Clan's Scarlet Sun Void-Burning Furnace.
A single Tier 3 High-grade spirit talisman costs at least tens of thousands of Spirit Stone, while a clan-protecting treasure is worth two hundred thousand Spirit Stone —a considerable price to pay.
Just like Lin Qianshu back then, the Old Clan Leader still had some strength left to overcome his tribulation, so he was naturally reluctant to waste his precious Tier 3 High-grade spirit talisman, let alone his valuable Tier 3 High-grade- quality Law Treasure.
He has Tier 4 Magical Treasure as a trump card, and also a set of Life-Bound Array Instrument that can block the Lightning Tribulation.
He raised his hand and summoned seven Tai Bai Star Orb. Instantly, golden light shone from the pearls, unleashing the Divine Ability Great White Geng Metal Sword Aura, which blocked the seventh Lightning Tribulation.
Then he activated the defensive Divine Ability ' Vajra Glazed Barrier ' to block the eighth divine lightning bolt.
This single Array Instrument blocked the seventh and eighth Golden Core Lightning Tribulation, demonstrating that the Old Clan Leader's strength was considerably greater than that of Xu Ganyang back then.
The ninth Lightning Tribulation was about to strike, but to prevent damage to his Life-Bound Array Instrument, he did not use it to Array Instrument block the final Lightning Tribulation.
He raised his hand and summoned his trump card, the Scarlet Sun Void-Burning Furnace. Instantly, a crimson sun stood tall in the sky, radiating an incomparably brilliant crimson light that blocked the final Lightning Tribulation.
Congratulations, Old Granduncle!
"Now that you have attained the Golden Core realm Path, your future is limitless."
Seeing that the Old Clan Leader had survived the Lightning Tribulation, Chen Nianzhi said with delight.
Chen Changxuan also had a happy expression on his face. He used his Golden Core realm to absorb the Thunder Tribulation Liquid, and then swallowed the Golden Core realm into his stomach.
As the saying goes, "Once the Golden Core realm is swallowed, my fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens."
Chen Changxuan broke through to the Golden Core realm realm today, and his lifespan will be eight hundred years. If he can further improve the quality of his Golden Core realm, he may actually have a chance to break through to the Nascent Soul in the future.
Because his lifespan had increased considerably, the Old Clan Leader looked even younger than when he first broke through to the Purple Mansion, appearing to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, and exuding a more vigorous and spirited aura.
Sensing the power within the Golden Core realm, the Old Clan Leader descended from the sky, saying with a sigh, "I never imagined I would reach this point."
As he spoke, filled with deep emotion, he said to Chen Nianzhi, "If it weren't for your support all along, I would probably be nothing but bones by now."
"Your uncle is quite talented and perceptive. He may have had fortuitous opportunity to help him get to where he is today, but his own unremitting efforts have also played a significant role."
Chen Nianzhi said with a smile that the Old Clan Leader's cultivation was extremely diligent, and with his support all the way, after the Spirit Peach Tree advanced to the Tier 2, his resources were no less than those of the core disciples of the Nascent Soul Immortal Clan.
Although he couldn't have imagined it in his early years, it seems quite reasonable that he has come this far.
The Chen Clan was naturally overjoyed that their Old Clan Leader had survived the Lightning Tribulation.
Two Golden Core realm cultivators in one clan are unique even within the Chu Kingdom, not to mention Chen Nianzhi's dao companion, Jiang Linglong.
It just so happens that Chen Nianzhi did not hold Golden Core Banquet in order to hide her cultivation level, so Chen Qinghao and others decided to hold a Golden Core Banquet this time to invite the major immortal clans and sects of the Chu Kingdom to participate in the banquet.
This banquet took several months to prepare. Chen Nianzhi and the Old Clan Leader hosted a banquet for the three major sects of the Chu Kingdom at Qingyuan Mountain. More than eighty Purple Mansion cultivators attended.
Even though the strength of the Chu Kingdom Cultivation World has increased considerably over the past hundred years, these eighty-odd Purple Mansion cultivators still account for half of all Purple Mansion cultivators in the Chu Kingdom.
In addition, Golden Core realm cultivators from the neighboring states of the Yan Kingdom, Qi Kingdom, and Cang Kingdom traveled a long way to the Chu Kingdom to attend this banquet.
The main reason is that times have changed.
Back then, Jiang Linglong had only recently broken through to the Golden Core realm and was merely a cultivator at the early Golden Core stage, so naturally she didn't have much of an imposing presence.
Now, Chen Nianzhi and his dao companion are one comparable to the Golden Core Grand Completion and the other is comparable to late Golden Core stage cultivator. Together, they are among the top three most powerful immortal clans in the Ji Continent.
Furthermore, the fact that Lin Qianshu and the Old Clan Leader both broke through to the Golden Core realm further enhanced their prestige.
Moreover, the two had killed many Golden Core realm, and even more, they had killed the Earth Lion Demon King and wiped out the Deng Clan. Naturally, everyone else had to show them respect.
Thus, at this Golden Core realm Elixir Conference, a total of seven or eight Golden Core True Person brought generous gifts to the Chu Kingdom, presumably to curry favor with the Chen Clan.
At the banquet, a group of Golden Core realm cultivators sat at one table.
Chen Nianzhi and Jiang Linglong sat in front, their eyes fixed on several unfamiliar Golden Core realm cultivators.
He discovered that among the Golden Core realm participating in this conference, there were quite a few newly Golden Core realm cultivators.
The one who came with the Purple Abyss Sect from Yan Ziji was Hibiscus Fairy. It seemed that because of the Golden-Core Formation Pill more than ten years ago, she broke through to the Golden Core realm realm and became the third Golden Core realm of the Purple Abyss Sect.
The Firmament Sword Sect has also gained a Golden Core realm cultivator named Ling Changxu. Chen Nianzhi met him more than forty years ago during the Battle of the Demon Cave.
Ling Changxu only a little over two hundred years old that year, and he is probably not even three hundred years old now. He can be considered a rising star of the Firmament Sword Sect.
If nothing unexpected happens, this person must have broken through to the Golden Core realm realm because of the batch of Golden-Core Formation Pill more than ten years ago.
