Eternal Immortal Clan: It All Started When I Married My Junior Sister!

67: The power of the Golden ElixirThe moment the System’s prompt sounded in his mind, Chen Xu’s Golden Core completely formed!

But it wasn’t an ordinary, round, smooth Golden Core.

Instead, it was a seed, seemingly carved from purple-gold glazed glass, with abstruse Dao patterns imprinted on its surface, and a wisp of Primordial Violet Qi slowly circulating at its core!

The instant the Golden Core formed, anomalies reappeared!

The originally pitch-black tribulation clouds instantly dissipated, replaced by colorful auspicious light, illuminating thousands of miles!

In the sky, waves of profound and unfathomable Great Dao sounds resonated, as if Immortals were expounding the Dao.

Golden lotuses, condensed from Spiritual Qi, continuously emerged from the Void Realm, scattering gracefully towards the earth.

Auspicious light descended from the sky, golden lotuses bloomed from the earth, and the Great Dao resonated!

Such anomalies had far exceeded the scope of the Golden Core Stage!

Those Nascent Soul Ancestors still lurking in the shadows were all stunned, their minds blank.

They had Cultivated for a thousand years, yet they had never seen or heard of anyone forming a Golden Core with such world-shaking commotion!

What the hell was this, Core Formation or Immortal Ascension?!

At Qingyun Immortal Sect’s Flowing Cloud Platform, Sect Master Murong Zhuyun suddenly stood up from the star-gazing platform, staring intently at the star chart.

The star chart, representing the Luck of the Great Feng Dynasty’s Cultivation world, had undergone a drastic change.

A previously unremarkable star suddenly shone with dazzling brilliance, its light so intense that it even eclipsed the main star representing the Luck of all Sects.

It was like a magnificent sun, dominating the world!

The Emperor Star!

Murong Zhuyun’s delicate body trembled uncontrollably, her beautiful face filled with shock.

She looked at the Emperor Star and exclaimed in a lost voice, ”No! This anomaly... isn’t a Golden Core!”

”This is... this is someone forging a Dao Seed! With oneself as the Foundation, heaven and earth as the soil, intending to forge a supreme Dao Seed, a path unprecedented by anyone!”

”This person will be the variable that overturns the current order of this realm!”

Inside the Cultivation chamber, all anomalies had subsided.

The awe-inspiring Heavenly Might, enough to make all Nascent Soul Ancestors of the Great Feng Dynasty tremble, came and went swiftly.

The descending auspicious light, the blooming golden lotuses, and the resonating Great Dao sounds all seemed like a mere illusion.

The heavy stone door remained tightly shut, isolating the inside from the outside.

Chen Xu sat cross-legged, his posture unchanged.

However, his entire aura had undergone a world-shshattering transformation.

If he was previously a peerless treasure sword hidden in its sheath, with its sharpness restrained, then now he was a deep, boundless starry sky, captivating anyone who gazed upon it, making them feel insignificant in its presence.

Within his Dantian and Qi Sea, the vast, sea-like liquid Spiritual Qi was no longer present.

Instead, there was a slowly rotating seed, about the size of a fist, entirely purple-gold and glazed.

This was not a traditional Golden Core.

Ordinary Golden Cores, regardless of their Rank, were all round and smooth, energy crystals formed from the highly compressed essence, Qi, spirit, and Spiritual Qi of a Cultivator.

However, the one in his Dantian had countless abstruse and complex Dao patterns naturally imprinted on its surface, as if they were the most primal manifestation of the Great Dao’s Law when heaven and earth first opened.

And at the center of that seed, a subtle wisp of Primordial Violet Qi, like a sleeping True Dragon, slowly circulated, emanating an ancient charm of ”the origin of all things, the Foundation of the Great Dao.”

This was his Golden Core.

It was also his Dao Seed!

Forged with the Heavenly Dao as the Foundation, Lightning Tribulation as the fire, Heart Demon as the hammer, and Primordial Violet Qi as the guide, it was an unprecedented, supreme Dao Seed unique to Chen Xu!

This kind of Golden Core transcended Human Dao Golden Cores, Earth Dao Golden Cores, and even Heavenly Dao Golden Cores.

It was done!

The moment this thought appeared in his mind, Chen Xu slowly opened his eyes.

And at this moment, the world before his eyes had become completely different.

It was no longer the vision of a Physical Body, but a higher-dimensional ”insight.”

He could see the Five Elements Spiritual Qi suspended in the air.

He could see the energy flow trajectories of the Formation runes on the chamber walls.

He could even see the subtle wrinkles left by time in space.

With a thought, his Divine Sense, like an invisible tide, spread out from him in all directions, covering everything.

One li.

Ten li.

Hundred li.

Thousand li.

Ten thousand li!

Everything within the reach of his Divine Sense was exposed.

Tens of thousands of Cultivators in Ninghai City, still shocked by the Chen family’s prestige.

Birds and beasts chasing prey in the mountains outside the city.

A herd of deer drinking by the river a hundred li away... All things, down to the finest detail, were reflected in his mind, as clear as lines on a palm.

This was the power of the Golden Core Stage, no, this was the power of his Divine Sense after his Dao Seed reached Major Achievement!

Suddenly, his Divine Sense paused slightly, and his eyes grew cold.

He could feel several subtle yet powerful auras hidden in the high-altitude clouds thousands of miles from Ninghai City, clearly drawn by the Heavenly Tribulation anomaly earlier, but unwilling to leave just yet.

They were Nascent Soul Ancestors who thought they were perfectly concealed, but little did they know that under Chen Xu’s current Purple Pupils of Delusion Breaking, their spatial concealment techniques were as laughable as a child’s trick.

”Haven’t seen enough?”

Chen Xu did not appear, nor did he speak.

A Divine Thought, however, crossed thousands of miles of space and appeared in the Sea of Consciousness of those Nascent Soul Ancestors.

”Scram!”

One word, yet it contained an undeniable will!

”Pfft!”

On the shore of the East Sea, the fishing rod in the hand of the old fisherman in a straw cape exploded with a ”crack” into powder.

He violently spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his cloudy eyes filled with terror!

”Divine Thought manifesting, words becoming Law! This... this is the method of a Spirit Transformation Great Power!”

He no longer dared to harbor any thought of prying, his figure transforming into a streak of water light, and without looking back, he fled into the vast depths of the East Sea.

In the Southern Border Volcano, the red-haired old man grunted, and the magma pool beneath him churned violently.

His face was pale, feeling as if his Nascent Soul had been almost shaken out of his body by that Divine Thought.

”Monster! Prodigy!”

He cursed, and likewise dared not stay for a moment, directly activating the earth fire to completely conceal his aura.

The other Nascent Soul Ancestors who were prying, without exception, were all struck as if by lightning, their Divine Souls severely shaken.

They all suffered considerable internal injuries on the spot.

There was no longer any trace of Luck in their hearts, only dread for that terrifying existence who could severely injure them with just a single Divine Thought.

For a time, several streaks of light fled in disarray, leaving this place of trouble.

Just one word, and it scared away several Nascent Soul True Lords who had been famous for thousands of years!

Chen Xu, however, was not proud of this.

He slowly stood up and stretched his limbs.

A series of crackling sounds immediately came from within his body.

He could feel that his Physical Body, after being tempered by the Nine-Nine Violet Lightning of the Azure Sky, had become incredibly powerful to an unimaginable degree.

He was confident that now, relying solely on the strength of his Physical Body, he could tear apart ordinary Magic Treasures with his bare hands!

Rumble.

The stone door of the Cultivation chamber slowly opened.

Bu Yifan, Sun Xiaoyue, Daoist Yuqing, Chu Xuan, and a group of Chen family core members, who had been waiting outside, immediately looked over.

When they saw Chen Xu’s figure, everyone’s breath hitched.

He was still him, his appearance unchanged, his figure still tall and straight.

But his aura seemed to transcend the mortal world.

Standing there, he became a world unto himself, making people dare not look directly at him, inspiring awe.

”Husband!”

Bu Yifan was the first to react, her eyes reddening, and she was about to go forward.

However, Chen Xu ignored everyone; he simply raised his head, his gaze seemingly piercing through the mansion’s numerous buildings, looking towards a certain direction a hundred li away.

There was a Shadow Concealment Tower stronghold that he had found from the Ghost Bat’s memory earlier.

”Since they’ve come, I ought to collect some interest.”

Chen Xu said lightly, then, under everyone’s puzzled gaze, he pointed his fingers like a sword and casually flicked them towards that direction.

There was no earth-shattering momentum, no dazzling light.

A subtle Sword Qi erupted from his fingertip, instantly merging into the Void Realm and disappearing.

After doing all this, he turned around and looked at Bu Yifan and his wives who had come to greet him.

The transcendent aura on him instantly vanished completely, replaced by a gentle warmth like a spring breeze.

”I’m back; I made you all worry.”

He reached out and gently embraced his wives, inhaling the faint fragrance of their hair, his heart filled with peace.

And at this moment, a hundred li away, inside a Shadow Concealment Tower stronghold, disguised as an ordinary mountain peak and enveloped by a Formation, dozens of black-clad assassins were gathering.

A Golden Core Early Stage commander, who was leading them, was giving a speech.

”The Tower Lord has ordered that target Chen Xu has formed his Golden Core, and his threat level has been raised to the highest! Everyone...”

Before he could finish his sentence, a sense of crisis that froze his very Soul suddenly struck him.

He abruptly looked up, but saw nothing.

The next moment.

Swoosh~!

A faint sound, like tearing cloth, echoed.

The entire thousand-zhang-tall mountain peak, along with the mountain-protecting Grand Formation that enveloped it, and all the assassins, buildings, and Restrictions within the mountain’s belly... were split in two from the mountainside!

The upper half of the massive mountain slowly slid down under the force of gravity, crashing to the ground with a rumble, raising a sky full of dust.

One finger, across a hundred li, flattened a mountain and annihilated a Sect!

After accomplishing this, Chen Xu led Bu Yifan and his wives back to the main hall.

His children, Chen Daoxuan, Chen Daochu, and others, also gathered around, their faces filled with excitement and adoration.

”Father!”

”Husband!”

Chen Xu smiled gently, his gaze sweeping over his sons, nodding in satisfaction: ”Not bad, your Cultivation has all improved.”

”But remember, the Foundation is paramount; do not be reckless.”

He then looked at his other younger children, and actually began to test their lessons on the spot.

The contrast between this power and tenderness made Bu Yifan and his concubines’ eyes sparkle with admiration and infatuation.

This was their man.

He could stir the winds and clouds with a thought, destroy powerful enemies with a flick of his finger, and yet, in front of his family, he could retract all his sharpness and become a gentle harbor.

”Husband, before...”

After everyone’s emotions had somewhat settled, Bu Yifan reported to Chen Xu about the Shadow Concealment Tower sending people to infiltrate, and the intelligence she had obtained from the Ghost Bat’s memory.

She had expected Chen Xu to be furious or grave after hearing it.

However, to her surprise, Chen Xu merely smiled faintly after listening, and took a sip of tea.

”I know; they are just clowns.”

Bu Yifan was stunned: ”Husband, that’s the Shadow Concealment Tower, an assassin organization that even dares to assassinate Nascent Soul True Lords, and their real target is the Legacy that Dao Xuan and the others brought back...”

Before she finished speaking, she saw Chen Xu looking at her with a half-smile: ”The interest I just collected was one of their strongholds.”

Bu Yifan and Daoist Yuqing and the others beside her instantly widened their eyes.

Only then did they realize what a shocking feat the Family Head’s seemingly casual flick had accomplished!

Across a hundred li, he had directly wiped out a stronghold guarded by a Golden Core Cultivator!

What kind of Immortal method was this!

All of Bu Yifan’s worries vanished into thin air at this moment.

With her husband here, what was there to fear even if the sky fell?

After comforting his family, Chen Xu returned to his room alone.

He began to introspect, carefully experiencing the changes after his Breakthrough.

That Primordial Violet Qi Dao Seed was even more Heaven-Defying than he had imagined.

It was like a self-operating supercomputer, constantly analyzing the Laws and Dao rhymes of heaven and earth, and directly feeding the insights gained back to his Divine Soul.

This meant that from now on, no Cultivation Technique or Divine Ability would hold any secrets from him.

He even felt that as long as he had enough Spirit Stones, his Cultivation speed for any Cultivation Technique would increase by more than a hundredfold!

In addition, he had also awakened two innate Divine Abilities.

The first was the [Purple Pupils of Delusion Breaking].

A purple light flashed in his eyes, and he looked out again.

The entire Chen family’s protective Grand Formation, in his eyes, became a precise network composed of countless energy lines.

Every node, every weak point, was clearly visible.

This Divine Ability could see through all illusions, enchantments, Formations, and disguises.

The second was the [Nascent Sword Domain].

With a thought, an invisible sharp Qi instantly permeated the air within a ten-zhang radius centered around him.

Everything within this space—the speed of the wind, the trajectory of dust—was under his control.

Any enemy who stepped into this Domain would be suppressed by ubiquitous Sword Intent, their strength greatly diminished.

And within this Domain, he was the sole Dominator!

”Shadow Concealment Tower...”

Chen Xu smiled faintly.

Perfect, I’ll use you to test the quality of my Dao Seed Golden Core!

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, in a dark demonic palace located deep underground, where sunlight never reached, a figure completely shrouded in a black robe, with only a pair of crimson eyes visible, sat on a throne.

He was the King of Assassins, the Tower Lord of the Shadow Concealment Tower, whose name made all Righteous Path Cultivators of the Great Feng Dynasty tremble.

Suddenly, among a row of Soul Lamps in front of him, the one representing the Golden Core commander, and dozens of others representing elite assassins, all extinguished at the same time!

Inside the demonic palace, there was a deathly silence.

A moment later.

”Good... what a Chen Xu!”

The Shadow Concealment Tower Lord suddenly stood up.

A terrifying pressure of the Late Nascent Soul Stage erupted, making the entire demonic palace hum.

In his hand, a life tablet recording the stronghold’s information shattered in response.
