With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World-Chapter 147 - 146: New Spiritual Fire
The fighting grew more intense on both sides, and brains were even spilled out.
If it weren’t for the Nascent Soul Cultivator of Great Qian guarding the Capital and unable to go out, Nine Rivers would be facing the revenge of Nascent Soul Venerable right now.
However, those Great Qian sects couldn’t wait for the Great Qian Nascent Soul to leave the Capital and go to Nine Rivers, hoping that this Nascent Soul Ancestor would get hurt.
But the Nascent Soul Ancestor from the Li Family of the Great Qian Imperial Family certainly wouldn’t comply with their wishes.
The second thing is the number of Golden Core Masters in Nine Rivers greatly exceeded Great Qian’s expectations.
Two hundred Preaching Envoys were fierce on the battlefield.
While the Li Family of Great Qian had only one Nascent Soul Cultivator.
With so many Preaching Envoys forming an array, the Nascent Soul Ancestor of the Li Family might not necessarily handle them.
Great Qian seemed to have touched Nine Rivers’ sore spot, taking down three Eighth-Grade Alchemists in just two months.
There were only a few high-grade Alchemists in all of Nine Rivers.
Although Eighth-Grade Alchemists couldn’t refine the lower-grade Nascent Soul Pill of Ninth Grade, they still held hope.
If they could obtain Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects, with these alchemists, perhaps in their lifetime they could refine pills that allow Golden Core Masters to step into Nascent Soul.
Rounded up, Great Qian was ruining the path to longevity for Nine Rivers cultivators.
No matter if there’s any Great Qian force behind the scenes pushing events, the True Fire of the Golden Core Masters of Nine Rivers had indeed ignited.
Both sides started retaliating against each other insanely.
Ouyang Yun shook his head.
"When will revenge end..."
"Brother Ouyang, what you said is quite right!" A young alchemist sat in the pavilion outside the house, lightly sipping Spirit Tea, smiling at Ouyang Yun.
Ouyang Yun recognized him.
This was a recently promoted Seventh-Grade Alchemist, who shared common topics with Ouyang Yun, and the two often discussed the Dao these days.
"Brother Li, you overpraise."
Ouyang Yun cupped his hands, smiling as well.
Though Ouyang Yun inadvertently brushed his hand over the Jade Pendant at his waist.
"Brother Ouyang... I..." As Li the Alchemist was about to walk to Ouyang Yun’s side.
Ouyang Yun waved a single hand, the surrounding array condensed, seven Fire Dragons formed a grand array, surrounding Li the Alchemist. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Ouyang Yun’s expression was icy, and countless high-grade talismans were scattered from his hand without hesitation, all enhancing the array.
In the distance, several strong auras flew over.
"Not bad, not bad, when did you find out about me..."
Ouyang Yun remained silent, only narrowing his eyes, vigilantly watching him.
With Celestial Soul Qi combined with the alchemist’s strong Divine Sense, Ouyang Yun possessed an unparalleled investigative ability.
From the first moment he saw this person, he sensed something was off.
Several streaks of Flowing Light rushed from afar, seemingly arriving at this place in the next instant.
’Li the Alchemist’ showed a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth.
His lips moved slightly.
"Do you think I want to live and go back." A sound appeared in Ouyang Yun’s ear.
In the next second.
A streak of black light instantly broke through the Nine Dragons barrier, appearing before Ouyang Yun.
A hand formed into an eagle claw, thick True Essence covered the palm, as if it could tear apart everything before it.
’Li the Alchemist’ had a direct purpose.
Destroy Ouyang Yun’s Golden Core!
For Golden Core Cultivators, although they cannot yet be reborn from a drop of blood, they can regrow severed limbs, and most of their vital points are gone.
As the Essence, Qi, and Spirit of Golden Core Cultivators are all concentrated in the Golden Core.
In the Cultivation Realm, there’s an exaggerated saying that as long as the Golden Core exists, one does not perish.
Of course, it’s not that exaggerated, but as long as there are pills, even if a Golden Core Cultivator’s head gets blown off or their heart dug out, they can rely on the Golden Core to regenerate these organs.
However, if the Golden Core is destroyed, the best possible result is to become a mortal, with no longer Immortal Fate.
Feeling the overwhelming aura approaching, and the opponent’s resolve to kill in their eyes, a hint of astonishment flashed in Ouyang Yun’s eyes.
’Li the Alchemist’, no, Marquis Changfeng of Great Qian was acting under the orders of the Imperial Court.
This alchemist before him held great significance for Nine Rivers.
If killed, it might greatly impact Nine Rivers, leaving them unable to cope with Great Qian.
Great Qian could then end the battle and clean up the mess.
As for what Nine Rivers’ so-called secret was, Great Qian did not care; they’ve already been overwhelmed, unable to worry about too much.
Marquis Changfeng was directly affiliated with the Imperial Court, loyal to the core, even willing to sacrifice his life for it.
Even if he was a Golden Core!
The Gale in Marquis Changfeng’s hand instantly traversed space, his fingers pressed on Ouyang Yun’s Dantian.
Qi Mechanism locked onto ’Golden Core’.
Fingers stabbed fiercely into flesh, True Essence sealed the Golden Core.
Marquis Changfeng raised his eyes slightly, yet he could see the strange smile on Ouyang Yun’s face.
Smile? Why smile?
The next second, a ghostly light flashed.
Marquis Changfeng finally sensed the shape of the Golden Core within Ouyang Yun.
Ghostly light, invisible ghostly light.
None of the Golden Core Cultivators would have a Golden Core like this.
Fake Core? How is it possible? The opponent has a Fake Core?
Ouyang Yun felt the dormant Fake Core within him agitating.
Possibly because his ’cage’ was damaged.
The Fake Core attempted to leave!
A hint of hope flashed in Ouyang Yun’s eyes.
The departure of the Fake Core represented a new opportunity for Core Formation.
However, the Fake Core just struggled a bit before becoming still; it had already completely merged with Ouyang Yun and could be understood that the Fake Core had been tightly bound with the cage. Even if the cage shattered, the Fake Core could not leave.
Moreover, this was just a temporary damage.
Disappointment flickered in Ouyang Yun’s eyes.
However, pitch-black flames surged on Ouyang Yun, fiercely breaking free from Marquis Changfeng.
In the distance, three light swords flew from the sky, in an instant pinning Marquis Changfeng to the ground.
Another array instantly rose.
"Boom ————"
Marquis Changfeng immediately decided to self-destruct his Golden Core, yet was blocked by the array.
The pitch-black in Ouyang Yun’s eyes rapidly faded.
"This is..."
Ouyang Yun felt the pitch-black flame in his Dantian.
This is... a new Spiritual Fire?
The power leaking from the Fake Core combined with Ouyang Yun’s Fire Attribute True Essence had actually produced a completely new flame.
"Master Ouyang, it was us who failed to do our job."
"Master Ouyang, did you suffer any injuries?" The ones who came to aid were several Golden Core Masters.
They looked at Ouyang Yun, seemingly puzzled by what just occurred.
"Master Ouyang, please, for caution."
However, upon inspection, Ouyang Yun had no abnormalities.
Ouyang Yun returned to his abode, feeling the flames within him.
"Seems like it can’t be used for alchemy... what a shame..."
Ouyang Yun sensed the pitch-black flame in his Dantian.
It’s undoubtedly a Spiritual Fire.
But it was highly aggressive and had great concealment ability; just now, even the rigorous inspection methods of other Golden Cores failed to detect this flame...
[Marquis Changfeng did not cause you any harm.]
[You gained a new Spiritual Fire from the Fake Core, which you named Hidden Demon Fire.]
[After learning of your encounter, Nine Rivers reinforced the defenses around Kunmi Mountain.]
............
[In the eight thousand two hundred and fifteenth year of the Nine Rivers Calendar, the first negotiation between Nine River Basin and Great Qian Dynasty broke down.]
