Chunibyo in Cultivation World

The Fusion Golden Core manifested. That half-core, half-infant-like golden core revealed itself in midair, and within the cracks one could see the gray, destruction-filled Nascent Soul inside, bizarrely absorbing everything from the outside world— even light struggled to escape.

Even though only half of it was revealed, one could already imagine that once this golden core completely shattered into an infant, the Nascent Soul inside would be terrifying beyond compare.

Seeing the great sun hanging in the sky before him, even the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood could not help but lick his lips, his face full of excitement.

”So this was the Child of Destiny of this era?”

The Ancestor of Heavenly Blood stared at Li Tianwei with deep yearning. He truly could not imagine what kind of terrifying energy he would obtain if he devoured this Li Tianwei.

”And he even had divine abilities. Perhaps he could mend my incomplete divine abilities.”

In the eyes of the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood, he had already set his mind on Li Tianwei.

Even though the golden core Li Tianwei revealed was extremely horrifying, to a powerhouse like the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood at the peak of the Union Realm, it was nothing more than a toy.

In one sentence— even if Li Tianwei had cultivated the Golden Core Realm to its absolute extreme, he was still a Golden Core. The power he could wield could never compare to the Union Realm.

It was impossible that the Golden Core Realm for Li Tianwei was equivalent to having Become an Immortal.

Golden Core and Union— these two could never be placed on the same level. This was the gulf between realms. In the eyes of the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood, Li Tianwei’s golden core indeed possessed the pressure to threaten the Spirit Transformation Realm and even graze the threshold of the Out-of-Body Realm, but only just that.

Between himself and Li Tianwei lay four entire major realms.

”Too strong… too strong. He was merely in the Golden Core Realm and yet had such strength. I originally did not believe the information saying he could suppress and kill a Spirit Transformation cultivator, but seeing it now, his power could probably even clash with an Out-of-Body cultivator.”

”Our choice was correct. Fortunately, we acted cautiously and dispatched all four of us.”

”Otherwise…”

Looking at the power Li Tianwei displayed, Yun Danzhi felt lingering fear.

According to the earlier decision at the Sacred Land of Baiyuan, they had planned to dispatch one Out-of-Body cultivator and several Spirit Transformation cultivators, but for absolute certainty, they had raised it one level.

Looking at it now, that decision was absolutely correct!

”But there is still a problem.”

Yun Danzhi could not help glancing at the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood. Even though they had confirmed that Li Tianwei was indeed not an imposter, whether the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood and Li Tianwei were on the same side remained uncertain.

Likewise, the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood felt the gazes of Yun Danzhi and the others. No matter what, in his eyes Li Tianwei must be with Yun Danzhi.

”Hahahaha, the result is the same either way.”

The Ancestor of Heavenly Blood burst into laughter. At this point, it no longer mattered.

Previously, he exchanged blows with Yun Danzhi because he felt he had fallen for a scheme and needed to regain some face.

But now things were different. The target stood right before him. The Ancestor of Heavenly Blood no longer cared for anything else— he wanted to devour Li Tianwei and refine him.

In an instant, the aura of the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood was no longer concealed and erupted completely.

The Union Realm, where flesh and spirit were united— every movement carried a weight of immense power.

At once, blood clouds surged across the sky. A filthy, bloody stench spread through heaven and earth, constantly corrupting all things.

”Heavenly Blood Demon Palm.”

With a thunderous shout from the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood, heaven and earth seemed to split in two. A colossal blood-colored hand, vast enough to cover the sky, manifested in the heavens with a violet glow of pressure.

The blue sky and bright sun instantly turned into a sea of blood. Even the golden core displayed by Li Tianwei struggled to conceal the grandeur of this massive palm.

”Go.”

With the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood’s low command, the blood hand enveloped Li Tianwei’s golden core and pressed downward.

The giant palm was countless tens of thousands of zhang tall. Compared with it, West-Ling City was no more than a miniature model of a city— and Li Tianwei’s manifested golden core was the same.

From this single palm strike alone, one could see the strength of the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood. He intended to erase West-Ling City along with Li Tianwei.

Yun Danzhi and the others had originally been debating how to seize Li Tianwei from the hands of the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood, but unexpectedly he suddenly acted and directly targeted Li Tianwei.

At that moment, Yun Danzhi fully understood— the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood had no affiliation with the Sacred Land of Lingxu, and just like them, he was here for Li Tianwei.

”All the better.”

Yun Danzhi watched the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood make his move and curled his lips into a faint smile.

With this, they could confirm completely— the Sacred Land of Lingxu had prepared no hidden backup plan.

They were handing over such a talented man for free.

To think they had been so cautious before— what a joke!

Seeing this, Yun Danzhi stopped the others behind him who were preparing to act, quietly watching the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood kill Li Tianwei.

In their eyes, the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood merely wanted to refine Li Tianwei. If he wanted to refine him, then let him refine him! It saved them extra effort.

As for the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood growing stronger after refining Li Tianwei, they considered that irrelevant.

Even if he advanced back into the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, so what? Every Sacred Land among the Three Sacred Lands had Tribulation-Transcendence ancestors.

Compared to the threat of the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood, Li Tianwei was far more terrifying. With his talent, it would not take long before even a Tribulation-Transcendence powerhouse could not stop him. When that time came, all Three Sacred Lands would be doomed.

Seeing Yun Danzhi and the others not stopping him, the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood smiled knowingly.

”Die.”

The blood palm pressed toward Li Tianwei. Even though Li Tianwei had a hundred types of Dao Intents circling around him, and such an abnormal golden core—

To a Union Realm cultivator, he was still slightly inferior.

As the target, Li Tianwei stared at the colossal hand that blotted out the heavens and felt unprecedented pressure.

He could sense that even though his now-fusioned golden core had a mass comparable to a star, under the power of the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood, it still suffered absolute suppression.

Li Tianwei revealed his golden core to completely resist the aftershocks of the earlier battle between both sides that had spilled toward West-Ling City.

Now, facing the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood head-on— the pressure was entirely different.

Not to mention that the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood had no scruples whatsoever. Not only did he want to take down Li Tianwei, he intended to erase West-Ling City along with him.

The pulling force of the Heavenly Blood Demon Palm continuously siphoned spiritual energy from heaven and earth. Waves of energy rippled and were extracted.

As the target, how insignificant Li Tianwei was.

A Union Realm cultivator whose flesh and spirit were one, whose words became law, already showed signs of partial transcendence.

Facing such a scene, Li Tianwei had only one thought— to expend everything.

”Undying Body of the Sacrificial Dao, Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend……”

”Come. Let me see where my limit lies.”

Li Tianwei silently chanted in his heart, and his aura erupted in an instant.

In a flash, he sacrificed everything within himself.

With the explosion of countless strengthening secret arts, Li Tianwei’s aura, originally at the peak of the Golden Core Realm, rose sharply.

He quickly reached the Nascent Soul Realm, and the cracks on the golden core suspended in the air expanded.

Inside, the gray, destruction-filled Nascent Soul opened its pair of crimson pupils.

The power of decay devoured the energy of fusion, collapsing inward toward the center without end.
