Crack!
Beneath the thunder, Chen Beixuan's Golden Core shattered!
The Golden Core is the hardest Dharma Treasure of Golden Pill Stage cultivators!
Yet, before the Mysterious Thunder, the treasure crumbled!
"Ah!"
As the thunder settled, Chen Beixuan spat a mouthful of Essence Blood.
Gazing at the shattered Golden Core before him.
He fell to his knees.
Frantically clawing at the sand, trying to piece together the fragnts of the Golden Core.
Everyone was stunned.
Especially the ten Golden Pill Early Stage cultivators following Chen Beixuan.
They had imnse confidence in their own Golden Cores.
Unless it was a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, they shouldn't be able to break the Golden Core.
Yet, what did they witness today?
Xia Liu possessed the power to shatter Golden Cores!
This was truly terrifying!
The Golden Core is the foundation of Golden Pill Stage cultivators.
With the Core shattered, cultivation would collapse!
"How could this happen! How could this happen!"
Chen Beixuan couldn't believe it!
His most durable Dharma Treasure! His lifelong foundation, how could it be crushed by a single strike of thunder!
No!
Suddenly, Chen Beixuan rembered.
The elder sent to monitor Xia Liu.
His Golden Core was shattered by Xia Liu.
Rembering this mont, Chen Beixuan deeply regretted.
Xia Liu had the power to crack Golden Cores, he should've realized it sooner!
Yet he foolishly displayed his Golden Core before Xia Liu!
This was undoubtedly courting death.
"Chen Beixuan, if only you hadn't targeted , you'd still be the ruler of a kingdom."
Withdrawing his spell, under the brilliant sunlight, Xia Liu sighed helplessly.
Chen Beixuan spoke no more.
Victory belongs to the king, defeat to the villain; he had lost!
Lost to a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, utterly defeated!
With his Golden Core shattered, there would never be a coback.
"Does anyone wish to seek justice for Chen Beixuan? I'm right here, co at !"
Surveying the ten Golden Pill Early Stage cultivators around, Xia Liu stood tall and fearless.
The crowd exchanged glances.
Having witnessed Xia Liu's terrifying techniques.
None had any thoughts of confronting him.
"From now on, you should know what to do, right?"
"King!"
Just as Xia Liu's words fell, the ten Golden Pill Early Stage cultivators kneeled on one knee towards him.
Shouting in unison.
"Pah! I'm not your king; your king is over there."
Xia Liu pointed towards Chen Yan.
"Young Friend Xia!"
"There's no need to say more, we had an agreent previously, after taking down Chen Beixuan, Chen Kingdom should naturally be returned to you."
"This!"
Chen Yan didn't know how to respond.
He never thought he could beco the king of Chen Kingdom.
Nor did he expect to severely defeat Chen Beixuan.
He only wanted to intimidate Chen Beixuan.
His existence was ant to caution him to return to goodwill.
Because of Xia Liu, things turned out this way...
It was truly unbelievable.
"Alright! I know what to do now!"
Gazing at Xia Liu, Chen Yan no longer refused.
Chen Beixuan had fallen.
It was up to him to lead Chen Kingdom.
Leaving Chen Beixuan's handling to Chen Yan, Xia Liu walked towards Princess Qingwu.
"You, you... don't co over!"
Princess Qingwu kept retreating, even falling to the ground.
She was scared, she was trembling.
Unbelievable that she had provoked soone as terrifying as Xia Liu.
Even her father, a Golden Pill Mid-Stage cultivator, had his Golden Core shattered by him.
Who in Chen Kingdom could still be his match?
"Princess Qingwu, do you still not repent?"
"Repent? How can I repent? My father was killed by you, Chen Kingdom has changed, am I still Princess Qingwu?"
Accustod to a life of nobility and power, suddenly plunging into despair.
Princess Qingwu felt lost about the future.
Perhaps, she'd be exiled to a distant city.
Then, claid by a powerful cultivator...
Or, not survive the day and beco a ghost under Xia Liu's hand.
"Forget it, reflect under the guidance of Senior Chen Yan."
Xia Liu no longer cared, Princess Qingwu was rely a puppet of Chen Beixuan.
Even if she had aspirations, with her talent, reaching the Golden Pill stage would likely be beyond her pri.
"You're not killing ?"
Watching Xia Liu walk away with his hands behind his back, Princess Qingwu questioned in confusion.
"What's the point of killing you? Did you think you could threaten ?"
Golden Capital District is just a small district in the Northern Realm; Xia Liu didn't believe he'd encounter Princess Qingwu again in the vast world after leaving.
The chances were negligible.
There wasn't much enmity between them.
Cause and effect had ended; let it go with the wind.
Princess Qingwu had no more response.
Yes, how could she possibly threaten him.
Perhaps, she'd live in his shadow all her life.
...
Xia Liu walked towards a certain corner.
Where there was soone who had once helped him.
He wanted to offer gratitude.
"Lord Liu, long ti no see, you're looking more and more content."
Thud!
Being singled out by Xia Liu, Chen Ye fell to his knees instantly with dull eyes.
He had been hiding here all along.
Witnessed Xia Liu's terrifying spells personally, crushing Chen Beixuan's Golden Core with absolute power!
That wasn't a power Foundation Establishnt cultivators could possess.
Now that Chen Beixuan's plot was exposed.
It also symbolized the revelation of Chen Ye's intentions.
At this mont, he could only pray Xia Liu shows rcy.
Otherwise, everything would end.
"Please forgive , Senior Xia; I didn't know Chen Beixuan's plot earlier!"
Now that Chen Beixuan was deposed, too despairing to speak further.
Chen Ye could only push everything onto him.
"Lord Liu, no need for such heavy words, even if you had designs on , it was to push
before Chen Beixuan, letting
get his help. Otherwise, I'd take longer to reach Foundation Establishnt."
Xia Liu politely replied.
It was all cause and effect.
Chen Ye led him to the palace, making him Prince Consort, and then to the gilding mining vein with Chen Beixuan.
"This!"
Chen Ye was at a loss for words.
Since Xia Liu forgave him, he stayed kneeling until he left.
The gap had already ford, and Xia Liu wouldn't dwell on it.
With a sigh, he headed back to his previous residence.
The battle had drained him significantly.
He needed to recover quickly.
Then it would be ti to return to the Imperial Sky Gate!
Hiss!
In the room, Xia Liu sat cross-legged, taking several deep breaths.
It hurt!
He felt his body wasn't his own.
The fourth step of Thunder Control Technique was beyond human endurance.
"Haha, thankfully your physical strength neared the Golden Pill stage; otherwise, you couldn't have withstood my Immortal-Destroying Thunder."
Bai Jue teased.
"Elder Bai, this Thunder Control Technique is just too terrifying, crushing a Golden Pill Mid-Stage Golden Core."
Recalling it, Xia Liu was still terrified.
Back then, he borrowed a bit of Bai Jue's power, combined with the might of the Taiqing Sword, managing to crack the elder's Golden Core.
The Immortal-Destroying Thunder directly shattered the Golden Pill Mid-Stage Golden Core, not even on the sa level.
