Xian Yan's Golden Core
Since he couldn't explore the ruins, Chen Nianzhi didn't plan to stay in the Vast Sea.
He glanced at Chen Xianyan, then said, "I'm planning to return to the Ji Continent. Do you want to come back with us?"
Chen Xianyan looked somewhat conflicted, but still nodded and said, "I've had enough training this time. I just need to recover from my injuries to break through to the Golden Core realm realm."
"You don't need to wait any longer. Recover from your injuries first, and then break through to the Golden Core realm realm in one go."
Jiang Linglong's eyes flickered slightly. She took out a Rejuvenation Calamity-Dispelling Pill and handed it to her, saying, "A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years, but a woman can take revenge from morning till night. I'll take you to take revenge then."
"Just go and kill Gu Qingshu. If anyone dares to stop you, I'll kill them all too."
"Thank you... thank you, Aunt Linglong."
This surprised Chen Xianyan slightly. Her breathing became rapid, and she seemed somewhat at a loss. In the end, she spoke up herself.
Chen Xianyan obtained the Rejuvenation Calamity-Dispelling Pill to break through to the Golden Core realm realm.
Since there were no Tier 4 Spirit Vein here, Chen Nianzhi even took out a Origin Celestial Crystal. Compared to Spirit Stone stones, Origin Celestial Crystal not only contain a great deal of energy, but also contain primal power.
This item is extremely precious; even Golden Core realm cultivators would be reluctant to absorb it. Chen Xianyan was able to use one when breaking through to the Golden Core realm, which should increase his chances of success.
However, if the breakthrough fails, an extra Origin Celestial Crystal will be wasted, a price that could seriously injure many Golden Core realm cultivators.
It took Chen Xianyan three whole months to break through to the Golden Core realm realm, but she finally succeeded.
Seeing the tribulation clouds gathering in the sky, Chen Nianzhi breathed a slight sigh of relief.
When Chen Xianyan broke through to the Purple Mansion realm, she was delayed for a considerable amount of time. Now, having broken through to the Golden Core realm realm twice, she can be said to have made up for the lost time.
This girl is twelve years younger than Chen Nianzhi, and is not even 280 years old yet. To be able to break through to the Golden Core realm stage at this age, and to achieve Middle-grade Golden Core at that, her future potential is likely no weaker than that of a prodigy like Skystar Zi.
Most importantly, during this experience, she retrieved treasures such as the Earth Mother Qi and the Fire-Vein Jade for her Lineage, which will be of great use to Chen Nianzhi and Jiang Linglong.
This enormous merit will fall into her hands, enough to ensure a smooth path in her cultivation. If there are any Nascent Soul stage treasures in the future, she will naturally be indispensable.
Thunder rumbled incessantly in the sky, but fortunately, Chen Xianyan possessed numerous Law Treasure, including the Tier 4 Defensive Magical Treasure, the Blazing Flame Golden Pearl, which protected her. She managed to survive the Lightning Tribulation without serious injury.
After surviving the Lightning Tribulation, Xian Yan descended from the sky and said joyfully, "Uncle Nianzhi, I succeeded!"
"Not bad."
Chen Nianzhi smiled slightly, reached out and patted her head, saying, "Let's go get revenge."
"..."
In the southeastern corner of the Vast Sea, a majestic Spirit Isle stands between heaven and earth.
On the Spirit Isle, several figures with Bu Fan bearing gathered together, with Alliance Leader Han Chuan at the head.
Beside them, an old man in a black robe served drinks to everyone, while a beautiful woman in a light blue gauze dress poured wine for them from teacups.
The woman's light blue veil revealed her bare skin, the transparent fabric possessing a hazy beauty that subtly exposed her snow-white, graceful figure, exuding an indescribable charm.
At this moment, she looked pitiful and choked up as she said, "Back then, Chen Xianyan kept the treasure for herself, and I couldn't stand it, so I passed on the message."
"Now that that vile woman has climbed to a higher position, she will most likely come looking for revenge. I implore you elders to uphold justice for me."
As the woman spoke, she, half-naked, was about to lean towards Alliance Leader Han Chuan.
But in that instant, True Person Han Chuan's gaze turned cold, and he flicked his sleeve, sending her flying.
A moment of silence fell. The old man in black robes, seeing the woman's face turn pale, quickly stood up and scolded, "You shameless woman! Who is Alliance Leader Han Chuan? How dare you use your seductive arts in front of him!"
"Get out of here now!"
Yes, yes, yes.
Gu Qingshu's expression changed slightly, and she quickly retreated as if relieved.
After she left, the old man in black robes apologized, saying, "My daughter was ignorant of the rules; I hope the Alliance Leader will forgive her."
"No need for such formalities."
The Alliance Leader Han Chuan smiled slightly, which was considered giving this Golden Core True Person some face.
Seeing that True Person Han Chuan was not pursuing the matter, the old man in black robes quickly stood up and asked, "May I ask, True Person, are those two really coming?"
"With their exceptional Golden Core realm cultivation, these two can move freely throughout the entire Vast Sea."
Alliance Leader Han Chuan took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Zhan Gu Qingshu will only last a moment; we cannot stop her."
"What should we do?" The Gu Clan's expression changed drastically as he grabbed the sleeve of Alliance Leader Golden Core realm Alliance Leader Han Chuan and said, "I only have this one daughter, and she is the one in my Gu Clan who is most likely to break through to the Golden Core realm stage."
"I beg the alliance leader to spare my daughter's life for the sake of our alliance."
"Snort--"
The Alliance Leader Han Chuan sneered and put down his teacup.
He gazed calmly at the distant void and said serenely, "I came for the Earth Mother Qi, and naturally I will not leave empty-handed."
At the same time, just at the edge of his vision, three streaks of light pierced through the void and arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye.
Before arriving at the Gu Clan Spirit Island, the three stood quietly in the void.
Chen Nianzhi glanced at the island, then fixed her eyes on Han Chuan True Person and said, "Are you going to stop me?"
Han Chuan True Person forward calmly and said indifferently, "The Earth Mother Qi is of utmost importance. If you are willing to give it up, I will leave immediately."
"Then there's nothing to discuss."
Chen Nianzhi spoke coldly, Heavenly Separation Twin Swords in his hands shot out into the sky.
But at that very moment, a pure white crane flew in from the distant void. Its figure was graceful and elegant, and its posture was extraordinary, giving it a somewhat otherworldly air.
"The Sky Crane Demon King?"
Jiang Linglong's eyes turned cold; the crane before her was actually a powerful Demon Cultivator at the Pseudo-Nascent Soul realm stage.
As the strongest Demon King of the Vast Sea arrived, Chen Nianzhi's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. "You're colluding with the Demon Race?"
"If I can forge Earth Dao Nascent Soul, what does it matter if I collude with the Demon Race?" True Person Han Chuan said coldly, disregarding the presence of the Sky Crane Demon King: "Once I break through to the Nascent Soul, the Vast Sea will naturally be mine alone to rule."
"Even if the Sky Crane Demon King and the Blood-Clad Patriarch break through to the Nascent Soul, they can only join forces to fight against me."
As he spoke, his gaze fixed on Chen Nianzhi, he said, "If you truly care about the Vast Sea Human Race, you should hand over the Earth Dao Qi to me."
"Oh--"
Jiang Linglong sneered and slashed straight at him with the Heavenly Ruins Immortal-Slaying Sword in her hand.
That Sky Crane Demon King glanced at True Person Han Chuan and coldly said, "According to the prior agreement, the Earth Mother Qi belongs to you, and the Fire-Vein Jade belongs to me. You cannot renege on your promise."
In the blink of an eye, the two sides had already clashed.
Chen Nianzhi fought the Sky Crane Demon King alone, wielding the Heavenly Separation Twin Swords with unparalleled skill, while the Thousand Demons Slaying Devil Sword relentlessly slashed down with unmatched sharpness.
