Chapter 280 Reaching the Golden Core Realm!
Chu Xun took out a Level-improving Pill.
“Brother, give this a try.”
“Um...” Yue Fandie was sowhat too embarrassed to take it.
“What’s with your reaction? If it wasn’t for the Tetrarchy Cauldron, this pill wouldn’t exist.” Chu Xun stuffed the pill in Yue Fandie’s hand.
The pills were such high-quality Third Grade items that they were nearly Fourth Grade. What a welco surprise!
In the end, Yue Fandie couldn’t resist the temptation and ate the Level-improving Pill. He then sat down and started digesting the pill.
Chu Xun’s heart ward. Yue Fandie’s action indicated a high level of trust in him. Warriors tended to be at their weakest when they were breaking into another realm; if they were disturbed, they could easily suffer Qi deviation.
Boom!
The spiritual energy around them began to erupt, surging forward like a tide until it was absorbed by Yue Fandie through his pores.
Seeing this, Chu Xun imdiately set up a Five Ghosts Transportation Formation around Yue Fandie. The mont the formation was activated, it drew in all the spiritual energy within a certain radius.
Yue Fandie looked almost ethereal at that mont, with his face brightening and darkening as he breathed.
For a seventh grade Human King Realm warrior to break into the eighth grade, he would need not only sufficient spiritual energy but also the accumulation of experience and insights over ti.
Several hours later, Yue Fandie’s aura soared and his Internal Breath surged. This showed that he was making an effort to break into the eighth grade.
Chu Xun shot several bursts of Hong ng Immortal Qi into the formation, causing the boundless spiritual energy inside to calm down.
Yue Fandie absorbed the energy eagerly.
Ti gradually passed. Five or six hours passed in the blink of an eye.
Crack!
Suddenly, a sound ca from Yue Fandie’s body—the sound of him breaking a barrier. His aura rose sharply, stirring the air so much that explosions took place. It was a terrifying sight to behold.
After a while, the aura around him began to converge and he abruptly opened his eyes. The golden light flashing in his pupils appeared almost tangible.
“Have you made it?” Chu Xun asked.
Yue Fandie shook his head and said, “I’ve only just touched the barrier and isn’t fully in. I think my chances are slim.”
Chu Xun felt regretful. Had Yue Fandie entered the eighth grade, he would have obtained a powerful ally.
He quickly swept aside his disappointnt. It took an extraordinary opportunity for a warrior to make a breakthrough. Since Yue Fandie had reached the edge of the eighth grade threshold, his breakthrough was just a matter of ti.
He then told Yue Fandie to summon Yue Hongbo and his two brothers while he transmitted his voice to Jiu You and the rest, telling them to co over.
When everyone had arrived, he gave them a Level-improving Pill each like he was a generous upstart.
Yue Hongbo and his brothers were already in the fifth grade of the Human King Realm. After hearing that the tiny pills could help them enter the sixth grade, they beca dumbstruck.
“Don’t just stand there and daydream. Hurry up and thank your Second Uncle.” Yue Fandie was unhappy with them looking like they hadn’t seen much of the world.
“Thank you... Second Uncle...”
The brothers’ expressions appeared distorted. Although they had addressed Chu Xun as their Second Uncle once, it still felt awkward to call him that again.
Jiu You was never one to be courteous with anyone. She snatched one of the Level-improving Pills and swallowed it with one gulp.
The Lord of Healing and Winso Widow respectfully expressed their thanks before taking the pills.
Then, Chu Xun set up an even larger Five Ghosts Transportation Formation to absorb the spiritual energy within a ten-mile radius.
The Yue brothers, Jiu You, and the rest began attempting a breakthrough together.
Majestic spiritual energy poured into the formation and was eagerly absorbed by the six people. The energy ran through their limbs, viscera, arteries, and veins.
Yue Fandie was secretly shocked that Chu Xun’s formation could gather such an abundance of spiritual energy.
He felt even smugger now. Befriending Chu Xun had been such a beneficial decision.
It wasn’t until late at night that the six people moved.
The first to make a breakthrough was Jiu You. She had the body of a monster, making her stronger than most humans.
The next one was the eldest of the Yue brothers. He had successfully broken into the sixth grade of the Human King Realm.
The group of six made breakthroughs one after another.
Chu Xun told them to continue to build a solid foundation.
“Brother, you should start too. I’ll guard you,” Yue Fandie said.
Chu Xun nodded, accepting the suggestion. He had nothing to worry about with Yue Fandie guarding him.
He imdiately took out five Level-improving Pills and consud them all.
“Brother, are you sure that’s okay?” Yue Fandie was startled to see him eat so many pills. He had personally experienced the terrifying power of the Level-improving Pill.
“It’s fine,” Chu Xun said. He sat cross-legged on the ground and started attempting his breakthrough. His cultivation was based on the Hong ng Scripture, and Hong ng Immortal Qi was much stronger than Internal Breath. Moreover, he was using his Ancestral Dragon’s Bone to circulate the Hong ng Immortal Qi. His breakthrough would be more demanding than the breakthrough of an average warrior.
Chu Xun’s cultivation created quite a commotion. Majestic spiritual energy directly entered him through his head with an almost animalistic ferocity.
Jiu You and the rest woke up from their state of cultivation one after another when Chu Xun absorbed all the spiritual energy, leaving them with nothing.
“Father, what kind of skill does Second Uncle cultivate? Why is it so powerful?” Yue Hongbo was alard. He was in the sixth grade of the Human King Realm now, but he was still no match for Chu Xun.
Yue Fandie was just as shocked himself, but said quietly, “Your Second Uncle is no ordinary person. Just look at his skill. He truly deserves the Devil King title.”
“You have to respect your Second Uncle from now on. If any of you dare to provoke him, I’ll kick you out of the family,” Yue Fandie said, giving them a strict warning.
Even though the Yue brothers still felt awkward calling Chu Xun their Second Uncle, his skill had indeed shocked them.
They had only read about pill refinent in a few lines in ancient records. It was terrifying how so tiny pills had helped them break into the next grade. If they were to rely on their own strength, it would take them at least ten to twenty years.
Rumble!
Bright and splendid Immortal Qi gathered around Chu Xun, warping the surrounding air and drawing in the aura.
The group of six watched in quiet astonishnt. Not even their collective breakthroughs had caused such a commotion earlier.
None of them knew that Chu Xun was in distress at that mont. He had been too confident in himself in taking five pills at the sa ti. The effects of the pills kicked in simultaneously and nearly caused a major accident.
Hong ng Immortal Qi wasn’t the only thing in Chu Xun’s Elixir Field right now; there was also True Energy. Divided in half by the Firmant Chain, it was partially purple and partially white. It looked just like the legendary Eight Trigrams. The explosive power of the pills was stirred, absorbed, crushed, and finally suppressed by the trigrams.
This gave Chu Xun a chance to breathe. He began to frantically digest the pills.
Chu Xun’s insides were undergoing a strange change. The effects of the pill were so potent and violent that they felt almost tangible, and yet they were easily absorbed and crushed by the Eight Trigrams like a roller. The trigrams then extracted the purest pill power for Chu Xun’s absorption.
Chu Xun had always been worried about the Firmant Chain. To him, the chain was a ticking bomb that could one day drain him until he couldn’t cultivate anymore.
However, the chain saved him back in Longcheng City and was now demonstrating its unexpected purification ability.
The Tetrachy Cauldron had already removed all of the dross in the Level-improving Pills during the refinent process, leaving only the essence behind. But, the Firmant Chain was purifying the pills again to further increase their potency.
Chu Xun wasn’t too surprised about this. The Firmant Chain was the will of heaven, born out of a certain rule. It was reasonable for the chain to be more mysterious and terrifying than the Tetrarchy Cauldron.
Chu Xun continued to extract the pill potency from the Eight Trigrams and recirculate them into his limbs, bones, and blood vessels.
It took him three days to make a cultivation breakthrough.
Yue Fandie and the others didn’t step away once during that ti.
A week soon passed.
Half a month passed as well.
Chu Xun remained still.
“Father, there’s nothing’s wrong with Second Uncle, right?” Yue Hongbo couldn’t help being worried. He had never seen anyone taking so much ti to make a breakthrough.
He could understand soone retreating several years to cultivate, but Chu Xun was making a breakthrough! It took them just a few hours to break through after consuming the Level-improving Pill, but Chu Xun hadn’t moved even after half a month.
Yue Fandie was unsure himself. “Let’s wait.”
The wait continued for another half a month.
Not even Yue Fandie could hold back this ti. He tried to wake up Chu Xun.
“Don’t disturb him,” Jiu You said, imdiately stopping him. She was the only one here who understood Chu Xun’s condition; his cultivation was unique.
“Don’t worry. Chu Xun will be fine. He once spent half a year breaking through.” Jiu You couldn’t tell them about Chu Xun’s unique cultivation, so she made up a white lie.
Her lie succeeded in placating Yue Fandie.
The group of six continued to guard Chu Xun. Before they knew it, another month had passed with Chu Xun continuing to ditate without moving.
The truth was that Chu Xun had already succeeded in his breakthrough. He had entered the late foundation stage of the Great Completion Realm and was on his way to break into the Golden Core Realm.
He had failed thrice now. If he were to repeat his old steps, he would surely fail again. This made him feel quite dejected.
It wasn’t until three months later that Chu Xun finally showed so reaction.
Boom!
Immortal Qi shrouded Chu Xun, forming what looked like a dazzling purple silkworm cocoon around him.
His hair was growing frantically until the tips reached the back of his waist, every strand appearing crystal clear. His skin was exuding a jade-like luster.
As he breathed out, two purple light left his body and soared like a dragon. They pierced the roof and disappeared into the sky. A long ti later, a terrifyingly loud explosion resounded, sounding like the rolling of thunder.
Crack!
Like the shattering of an egg shell, the Immortal Qi covering Chu Xun began to crack. Suddenly, it exploded and covered the sky with flecks of light.
Chu Xun opened his eyes at that mont. When his eyelids opened, two purple light surged several inches forward. He opened his mouth and breathed in, drawing the countless flecks of light in the sky into his body.
He stood up with a head of gleaming hair. The two strands of white hair on his temples were particularly eye-catching. He exuded harmonious energy all over and his white burnished robe billowed without any wind, making him look like an immortal.
Yue Fandie and the others stared at him, dumbfounded. Even as n, they were envious of Chu Xun’s absurdly good looks.
Recovering his senses, Yue Fandie asked, “Did you succeed?”
Chu Xun nodded faintly.
His expression didn’t look quite right. He had indeed entered the early stage of the Golden Core Realm, but his Elixir Field was still divided in half, with the Firman Chain separating both sides from the middle.
However, his sea of Hong ng Immortal Qi had turned into a glowing purple pill and his sea of True energy had turned into a glowing white pill. Both pills were moving slowly, making them look more like the Eight Trigrams.
Now that he was in the Golden Core Realm, he was supposed to gather the True Energy in his Elixir Field and form a Golden Core. Yet, he now possessed a purple and a white pill instead.
Even though it was weird, he was happy nonetheless. He could feel how much stronger he was compared to the ordinary Golden Core Realm warrior.
Not only had he easily broken into the Golden Core Realm, but his cultivation had improved as well. This ant that he could use even more advanced magic skills to greatly increase his combat power.
If he were to encounter fifth grade Human King Realm warriors like Bo Ping right now, he could blow them up with a swat of his hand.
The pressure that he was unintentionally exerting was so strong that it left Yue Hongbo and the rest in fear.
