Jiang Chengxuan knew what Shen Ruyan was asking. He didn’t hide it from her and replied with a smile,
“I’m sure you can tell.
That’s right, what I just comprehended was the divine power of two fused flames.
I named it the Yin and Yang Divine Flame.”
“Yin and Yang Divine Divine Flame?”
Shen Ruyan’s beautiful eyes lit up.
It had to be said that this name was very appropriate.
Then, the couple chatted briefly for a while before rushing towards Jiang Renyi and the others.
When they approached, Jiang Renyi and the others immediately bowed and congratulated Jiang Chengxuan excitedly.
“Congratulations on reaching the Golden Core realm, Granduncle!”
“Congratulations on reaching the Golden Core realm, Brother Jiang!”
In an instant, continuous congratulations sounded.
Shen Ruyan watched with a smile.
Jiang Chengxuan was not stingy.
Just like Shen Ruyan, he raised his hand and shot out many spiritual lights.
One could see that there were all kinds of treasures wrapped in those spiritual lights.
There were pills, talismans, Dharma artifacts, and Dharma treasures.
After that, Jiang Chengxuan returned to Xuanming Peak with Shen Ruyan.
Then, the couple had a long conversation about the experience of breaking through to the Golden Core realm.
Through communication, they had a clear understanding of each other’s current situation.
After a while.
A serious look suddenly appeared on Shen Ruyan’s face.
She looked at Jiang Chengxuan and said, “Husband, the Heavenly Tribulation you and I undertook this time didn’t seem right.”
Jiang Chengxuan’s heart skipped a beat.
He also felt that something was wrong with the Heavenly Tribulation they faced, especially the one he undertook, which was so destructive that it didn’t seem like a test at all.
If not for the Tribulation Avoidance Pearl rewarded by the system, he would not have been able to survive it.
Moreover, even Shen Ruyan’s Heavenly Tribulation was abnormal.
As far as he knew, although the Heavenly Tribulation of supreme-grade and divine-grade Golden Cores would be stronger than other Golden Core Heavenly Tribulations, it was definitely not that destructive.
He looked at Shen Ruyan and asked,
“Did you figure out something?”
However, Shen Ruyan shook her head.
“I can’t figure it out for the time being, but I’m certain that there’s a huge problem with our Heavenly Tribulation.
Perhaps there’s a way to verify our guesses.”
“What way?”
Jiang Chengxuan immediately asked.
Shen Ruyan said, “That is to investigate if any cultivators with supreme-grade Golden Core have been born in the Cangnan Region, no, in the entire Nine Essences Immortal Cultivation World in the past hundred years.”
Hearing Shen Ruyan’s words, Jiang Chengxuan understood her intentions.
“Are you trying to…?”
“That’s right.”
Shen Ruyan nodded.
“If no supreme-grade Golden Core cultivator has been born in the past hundreds or thousands of years, it’s enough to prove that it’s very likely that no supreme-grade Golden Core is allowed to be born in this world.”
It had to be said that Shen Ruyan’s method was indeed the fastest way to determine if there was really a problem with the Heavenly Tribulation.
Although with their current strength, even if they were really sure that there were some problems with the Heavenly Tribulation in this world, it was meaningless and they could not do anything.
However, it was meaningless now and they couldn’t do anything. It didn’t mean it would be the same in the future.
At the very least, they would have a clue what was going on.
At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan entrusted this mission to Jiang Renyi and the others through voice transmission.
Then, the couple continued to talk to each other.
Then, they decided to return to their cave abodes and cultivate for a period of time.
After all, they had just broken through to the Golden Core realm and needed to familiarize themselves with this realm and sort things out.
If possible, they also wanted to refine and nourish their Dharma treasures again or even upgrade them.
In short, after breaking through to the Golden Core realm, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had a lot to do.
Half a year later.
In Jiang Chengxuan’s cave abode.
He had already understood all the subsequent content of the Five Elements True Technique.
With the gift from heaven and earth after successfully transcending the tribulation, Jiang Chengxuan’s cultivation actually advanced to the second level of the Golden Core.
At the same time, he also used the Dharma treasure Advancement Talisman rewarded by the system to raise his intrinsic Dharma treasure, the Golden Void Sword, to low-grade Level 4.
In addition, with the help of the Heavenly Flame Upgrade Stone, the Ruby Flame was successfully raised to Level 4, now enough to threaten Golden Core cultivators.
After doing this, Jiang Chengxuan originally wanted to use the Yin-Yang Divine Jade he had obtained from the Jade Water Sword Pavilion to try to refine it into his Dual Polarity Divine Mountain and turn this Dharma treasure embryo into a true Level 4 Dharma treasure.
However, at this moment, the restriction of the cave abode was suddenly activated.
The one who activated it was none other than his Dao companion, Shen Ruyan.
This puzzled Jiang Chengxuan.
Under normal circumstances, Shen Ruyan wouldn’t disturb him easily, especially at this moment.
The fact that she did it meant there was something very urgent.
At the thought of this, Jiang Chengxuan immediately lifted the restriction of the cave abode and arrived outside.
Seeing that there was anxiety written all across Shen Ruyan’s face, Jiang Chengxuan had a bad feeling.
“Ruyan, did something happen?”
Seeing Jiang Chengxuan come out, Shen Ruyan immediately said anxiously,
“Husband, my brother just sent me a message. He said that Fifth Granduncle doesn’t have much time left and probably won’t be able to last long. He asked if we have time to go back.”
“Huh? Fifth Granduncle?”
Hearing Shen Ruyan’s words, Jiang Chengxuan suddenly remembered that according to Shen Yuanlong’s remaining lifespan, he would probably die in a year or two.
This made him feel a little ashamed.
Originally, after he and Shen Ruyan broke through to the Golden Core, they should have gone back first.
After all, he still had the Longevity Pill rewarded by the system.
This pill was not restricted by the life-extending rule of this world.
In the past.
Shen Yuanlong had already taken two life-extending spiritual items.
According to the life-extending rule, Shen Yuanlong could only take another life-extending spiritual item at most.
After that, he could not take it anymore.
Even if he took it, it would not have any effect.
However, the Longevity Pill given by the system was not restricted by this rule.
After he took it, Shen Yuanlong would still have a chance to take one last life-extending spiritual item in the future.
As an elder who had taken care of them when they were young, Shen Yuanlong naturally had an important place in Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s hearts.
If possible, neither of them wanted anything to happen to him.
Therefore, in the next moment, Jiang Chengxuan said to Shen Ruyan,
“In that case, let’s get ready and rush back to the Splendid Jade Mountain as soon as possible.”
As he spoke, Jiang Chengxuan also told Shen Ruyan that he had a special life-extending pill.
Shen Ruyan was pleasantly surprised
She did not expect her husband to have such a life-extending spiritual item.
She nodded at Jiang Chengxuan.
“Alright, let’s get ready and return to the Splendid Jade Mountain.”
At this point, Shen Ruyan seemed to have thought of something. Her expression suddenly became solemn.
“By the way, Husband, given the current situation, it’s best not to let too many people know that we’re returning to the Splendid Jade Mountain.
Especially when we pass through the area controlled by the demon beasts, we have to avoid attracting their attention.
After all, neither of us can say for certain if that Level 5 Demon Emperor has removed its attention from us..”
