Chapter 61: Gold Core, Seventh Level

Boom!

The clear sky above Cangwu suddenly became filled with dark clouds.

Zhu Ming is transcending tribulation!

Both the inner and outer disciples, as well as the true disciples, all went to witness the ceremony of Zhu Ming transcending tribulation.

This time, Chen Shen was not forced to be a spectator. He and Mu Xiaojin hid in a room, peering through the window.

"The heavenly tribulation is so terrifying. This person's cultivation is very strong. The tribulation is even more terrifying than when I ascended to True Immortal," Mu Xiaojin said, her gaze piercing through the clouds, observing the scene of Zhu Ming transcending tribulation.

"You've traveled through the outside world. Haven't you encountered any better opportunities?" Chen Shen asked.

"Opportunities are not so easily obtained. But I think my greatest opportunity is you, junior brother," Mu Xiaojin blinked and smiled faintly.

"Women, you only slow down my sword speed!" Chen Shen distanced himself, but his neck was tightly held by a fair hand.

Mu Xiaojin was tall and slender. She leaned her face closer to him and whispered, "When we cultivate together, junior brother doesn't react like this."

Boom!

The terrifying heavenly tribulation descended. Zhu Ming gathered his strength, preparing to pass the first trial.

"Speaking of which, I think junior brother should be more remarkable than this Zhu Ming. I wonder how you managed to overcome your tribulation back then," Mu Xiaojin looked at the rolling thunder in the sky above the first peak and asked.

Chen Shen recalled that day and then said seriously, "The tribulation I faced was several times more terrifying than this. I almost died and barely made it through. Otherwise, senior sister wouldn't have been able to have me."

"That just proves junior brother's strength," Mu Xiaojin rested her small head on his shoulder.

In the sky above the first peak, Zhu Ming was in tatters and looked somewhat disheveled.

Last time, his Foundation Building transcending tribulation seemed more like a performance, but this time it couldn't be like that.

He had lost two high-grade spiritual weapons and had no idea how many healing pills he had consumed.

"The heavenly tribulation disperses, and a Gold Core is formed in his abdomen. Senior brother Zhu is about to ascend to True Immortal," some disciples below exclaimed with envy in their eyes.

"Wait, why is senior brother sitting cross-legged in the air? His complexion doesn't seem good," someone said.

"You Qi Refining juniors, what nonsense are you talking about? True Immortal tribulation also includes the tribulation of the heart devil," another person said.

Three hours later, Zhu Ming opened his eyes with difficulty. The tribulation of the heart devil had ended, and he let out a sigh of relief.

"Gold Core formed!" He opened his palm, and a shining Gold Core appeared.

"The tribulation of the Gold Core is ultimately nothing compared to the life and death tribulation of the Nascent Soul," Mu Xiaojin withdrew her gaze and said.

"Yes, I envy you. You still have to transcend tribulation, experience countless hardships, and become a superior being among immortals," Chen Shen thought to himself.

Two days later, Zhu Ming removed his title as senior brother and was promoted to the elder of the first peak, True Immortal. Thousands of people came to congratulate him.

Unfortunately, he had already found his Dao companion. Otherwise, many True Immortals would have tried to matchmake their just-coming-of-age granddaughters with him.

Cangwu once again returned to tranquility, giving a sense of peaceful years.

However, as time passed, the elder holding the sword, Bai Jingping, became increasingly old.

"Master, I will find you a longevity pill," Yun Qingying looked at the aging master, her eyes turning red.

"No need. Everyone has to die. Back then, you didn't listen to my advice and insisted on following me. Now there are some troubles.

Ye Chen regards you as insignificant, but other members of the Ye family won't. His son is ruthless. After I die, he will definitely find a way to get rid of you. You don't need to bury me and show filial piety. It's time for you to leave," Bai Jingping shook his head gently, already accustomed to life and death.

But Yun Qingying didn't listen to his advice and acted immediately.

A year later, Bai Jingping's life was about to end, and this true disciple who had been searching for the longevity pill actually found it.

"Longevity pill, extends life by two years," the elder holding the sword held the pill in his hand, his expression complicated.

"If master doesn't want to take it, then disciple will have to use force," Yun Qingying said.

"..." Bai Jingping, in the end, could only take it and live for another two years.

First Peak.

"Yun Qingying found the longevity pill for the elder holding the sword, extending his life by two years. Should we just kill her?" Yan Shuangman said to Ye Chen.

The latter waved his hand and said, "No need. Whether he dies early or late, it won't cause any waves. Just let them be."

Just as my cultivation is almost polished, I will Transcend Tribulation and advance to Nascent Soul in two years."

As the words reached the last sentence, Ye Chen's eyes became filled with anticipation.

If he succeeded, he would be the first Nascent Soul powerhouse in the history of Cangwu.

"Junior Brother, your talent is so high. How did you break through again within a year?"

At night, in Chen Shen's room, during the Sage's Time, Mu Xiaojin looked at her Dao companion's breakthrough with envy in her eyes.

"It was originally going to take another year, but Senior Sister played a part in it."

Chen Shen spoke, then silently recited the Clear Mind Mantra.

...

In the blink of an eye, two years had passed.

The first news that attracted attention was that Zhu Ming had broken through again, advancing his cultivation to the second level of the Gold Core True Lord.

"This child will definitely become Nascent Soul. With such cultivation speed, we True Lords can't help but feel inferior."

"High-grade spiritual roots are truly terrifying. If Lin Shujin doesn't have any accidents, our sect might have a pair of dual Nascent Souls, or even three Nascent Souls!"

The unexpected news about Lin Shujin had long been confirmed. Although it was regrettable, now, only when seeing Zhu Ming's breakthrough, would people remember that the peerless heroine of the same generation was a woman.

The news of Zhu Ming's breakthrough spread widely, causing everyone in the sect to admire him.

"This child is not bad, but it's a pity that he was born in the wrong era. If I were to appear, no one in the entire sect would be able to match me."

"I'm annoyed. This inflated feeling is coming again. But breaking through to the seventh level of the Gold Core, we should celebrate."

Chen Shen closed his seclusion for three days and finally broke through to the later stage of the Gold Core.

It was currently nighttime, and he climbed over the wall for the first time and entered Mu Xiaojin's room.

"Junior Brother broke through?... Don't be in such a hurry."

A surprised and shy voice came from the room.

"To celebrate my breakthrough, I should celebrate with you." Chen Shen said.

Two days later.

Bad news came that Elder Zhi Jian had exhausted his energy and passed away.

"Zhi Jian, do you still remember the girl we pursued together that year? How could you leave before me?" A True Lord shouted in grief.

"A lifetime of bowing in respect to the scenery, Elder, have a good journey."

Countless people who admired Elder Zhi Jian paid their respects to him.

This time, no one stopped the Heaven Burial Mountain, and many people bowed as a farewell to Elder Zhi Jian.

As the one responsible for collecting the bodies, Chen Shen naturally took the lead and dug a grave with Yun Qingying.

[Successful burial, obtained a portion of spiritual roots, breakthrough to the mid-stage of the High-grade spiritual roots...]

"After burying it for so many years, I finally made a little breakthrough."

Chen Shen blinked his eyes and thought to himself.

I wonder what kind of spiritual roots are above the High-grade level.

He had already learned all the techniques of Cangwu, and what Elder Zhi Jian brought him was just a breakthrough in spiritual roots.

Half a month later, thunder and lightning flashed, and a strong wind blew.

Chen Shen opened his eyes from his cultivation, and his divine sense spread out. Soon, he discovered an unprecedented Heavenly Tribulation in the farthest back mountain of Cangwu.

"Ye Chen? Is he going to break through to Nascent Soul?" He exclaimed in surprise as he saw the figure under the Heavenly Tribulation.

Hmm?

His divine sense pushed forward another fifty miles, leaving the territory of Cangwu.

This was the first time he had done this.

"Lin Xuan?" Chen Shen was astonished.
