Chapter 137: Condensing a 'Mundane” Golden Core

Chapter 137: Condensing a “Mundane” Golden Core

The starry sky was resplendent, the Milky Way stretching across the heavens.

The universe was vast and profound, desolate yet expansive.

Countless stars spanned endlessly as far as the eye could see.

A star burned with infinite fire, radiating endless heat, seemingly so close to Qi Yuan that he could reach out and touch it.

The heat was scorching, causing fine beads of sweat to form on Ning Tao's delicate face. Her black dress clung tightly to her petite body, accentuating her graceful figure. Even as a Great Supreme, she felt the heat acutely.

She gazed at this universe with a look of wonder and a hint of fear for the unknown.

Stars were often associated with legendary deities.

And this universe contained so many stars...

Qi Yuan held Ning Tao close. His body was even hotter than hers, and his voice trembled: "This is a brand-new universe..."

If divided by the concept of the universe, Canglan Realm, Wangyue Continent, and Liufeng Realm were all in the same universe.

Above the sky, there was the same array of stars, the same divine projections, or reflections.

Of course, the situation in Liufeng Realm might be a bit special.

Qi Yuan had passed through the Gate of Ten Thousand Differences and arrived in a brand-new universe.

This universe was utterly silent.

Qi Yuan didn't sense any life forms.

Or perhaps, there were life forms, but he couldn't sense them.

Anyway, the sun, moon, and stars here were real celestial bodies.

Not divine projections, not false images.

Qi Yuan held Ning Tao. The Great Sun Golden Lotus within him burned everything, causing his consciousness to start blurring.

Leaving Liufeng Realm, he seemed to have left the game and didn't need to return to Canglan Realm immediately.

However, his current physical condition needed resolution.

The Great Sun Golden Lotus continued to burn.

He looked at Ning Tao, his expression fluctuating slightly: "I have to go."

Otherwise, the Great Sun Golden Lotus would harm Ning Tao.

Ning Tao stood in the vast void, looking at the familiar figure close to her. Her eyes were firm, tightly clutching Qi Yuan's sleeve. Her long, slender legs wrapped around his waist, as if afraid he would suddenly disappear like before.

Seeing the timid Ning Tao, Qi Yuan's eyes squeezed out a smile: "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Qi Yuan said, looking at the star close by that didn't seem too large.

He said: "See that little sun over there? It's going to become my golden core soon."

Ning Tao's eyes flashed with confusion.

She didn't understand but listened quietly.

"I need to go there and swallow it." Determination appeared in Qi Yuan's eyes.

"Don't worry about me. I'll build my foundation on the Heavenly Dao and swallow a star!

I've heard of a mighty being who swallowed a whole universe.

Swallowing a star is nothing."

"Blood Lord... you better not lie to me!" Tears welled up in Ning Tao's eyes.

She was scared Qi Yuan was lying to her.

Qi Yuan intended to leave her here alone to face the burning Great Sun Golden Lotus.

"When have I ever lied to you?" Qi Yuan's thoughts were complicated as he held Ning Tao's soft hand, his expression gentle.

Their bond was very deep.

At this moment, the burning of the Great Sun Golden Lotus became even more terrifying, instantly burning Ning Tao's clothes to ashes. She seemed to intentionally not resist the burning.

Qi Yuan's hand rested on Ning Tao's smooth back, her fair body fully visible to him.

Her petite body moved slightly, the small curves gently brushing against his arm. Qi Yuan suppressed his desire.

Ning Tao leaned close to Qi Yuan's ear, her voice soft but firm: "Blood Lord, you've seen my body, no matter how ugly I am, you can't despise me!

If you leave without saying goodbye, I will lock you by my side for all eternity!"

At this moment, Qi Yuan couldn't distinguish if the enchanting girl in his arms was the canary or Ning Tao.

He only knew her eyes were especially captivating.

"I won't." Qi Yuan looked at the girl, his gaze firm, though his voice held a trace of concern, "It's just... after I refine the star into a golden core, I might leave here, and only the golden core will remain.

If I condense the golden core, don't keep staring at it, you might forget things."

A part of him would remain here.

Ning Tao seemed to understand a bit, her moist lips moving close to Qi Yuan. She bit lightly and smiled proudly: "I've left a mark, my husband, you are mine now."

But then her smile faded, replaced by a timid look: "Blood Lord, bite me too, I want to be yours!"

Ning Tao was bold and enchanting, the canary shy and proud.

Qi Yuan lowered his head, a faint fragrance wafting over. He said: "Our combined mental age isn't even as big as someone else's shoe size.

Little Ning Tao, I have to go."

This simplicity, purity, and innocence dispelled Qi Yuan's melancholy.

Ning Tao held Qi Yuan's head, her snowy face flushed. Her black dress reappeared, and her long, white legs were once again wrapped in black stockings.

At their level, condensing clothes from cosmic dust was simple, or they could use their power to do it.

She looked at Qi Yuan, her voice slightly domineering: "You know."

Qi Yuan nodded, looking deeply at Ning Tao, then gazed at the countless stars in the vast universe.

Finally, he fixed his gaze on the nearest and smallest sun.

Without hesitation, he charged towards it.

Ning Tao watched from afar, through the vast universe.

Time seemed to freeze at that moment.

After an unknown period, a bright light flashed from the star.

The light then dimmed again.

At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Qi Yuan's mind.

He had already entered the star.

Endless pressure and high temperatures squeezed and burned his body.

Inside, the Great Sun Golden Lotus also burned everything.

The two burning forces reached a delicate balance.

The pain Qi Yuan endured far surpassed anything before.

Especially the Great Sun Golden Lotus, whose terrifying burning was unbearable.

Death Ray!

The great skill kept activating, Qi Yuan's power kept rising.

Fighting against the Great Sun Golden Lotus.

The Great Sun Golden Lotus was the relic left by the Great Sun Bright Buddha, incredibly terrifying.

Covered in dust, it sought to burn everything in the world.

"Forget!"

The supreme innate divine power, the Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra, kept engraving on the star.

The star, which seemed "calm" before, exploded violently.

The shattered flawless golden body floated above the star.

"In the world, only with the Heavenly Dao can a world be complete!

You lack the Heavenly Dao, a perfect match for me!"

"You are a chocolate ball!"

"You are an egg!"

"You are a stone!"

"You are my golden core!"

Qi Yuan continually engraved.

The potential of the Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra far exceeded that of the Void Realm Lord's Heart Demon Draw.

This powerful innate divine power kept engraving, with no Heavenly Dao or other beings to stop Qi Yuan.

As long as Qi Yuan's appetite was big enough, he could swallow the star.

The star slowly succumbed.

The Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra continually engraved, turning the star into Qi Yuan's form.

Qi Yuan had no body, his flawless golden body turned into solid power, wrapping the star shallowly.

Of course, wrapping was an exaggeration, more like scattered bits.

Too big!

The star was too big!

Not cute at all!

The Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra kept engraving, with no obstruction.

The Great Sun's unfulfilled "White Day Fantasy Technique" was realized by Qi Yuan now.

This universe had more than one star!

Countless stars and planets in an endless galaxy.

No Heavenly Dao, no other beings.

This universe was completely undeveloped.

Qi Yuan, eating from one bowl, thought about the pot.

"Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra, engrave!"

"Golden core... begins!"

Qi Yuan shouted.

The Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra finally engraved on the star.

The star finally took Qi Yuan's form.

"Condense!"

A terrifying aura swept through, the star suddenly burst into a bright light, forming a golden core, and then the light faded, the star returning to its original form.

No one who came to this world would take this star for anything but an ordinary star, not a cultivator's golden core.

The aura of forgetfulness spread over the star golden core, suspended in the vast universe.

Swallow a golden core, and today you know who you are!

Qi Yuan finally formed a golden core, becoming a Golden Core Master!

In the Divine Light Sect, besides a few peak lords, this was an incredibly rare existence!

Qi Yuan's consciousness slowly returned.

He looked at the black figure in the universe, his eyes showing reluctance.

The star's light turned into a Milky Way, beautiful and like auspicious clouds.

The Milky Way crossed the endless universe, reaching Ning Tao.

As a Great Supreme, Ning Tao saw this, her eyes filled with surprise and confusion.

The terrifying aura ahead surpassed everything.

Even the Supreme Master, even the White Emperor, were like children before this terrifying aura.

"Blood Lord..." Ning Tao's lips trembled.

She looked through the Milky Way, not seeing the familiar figure.

The star emitted its final voice.

"It's here, so am I."

The white Milky Way swept over, and Ning Tao's body was baptized.

Qi Yuan's golden core had boundless power.

The star was him, the Heavenly Dao was also him.

This golden core was like a god, even more terrifying.

After all, how could an ordinary Yin God contend with a star?

Ning Tao stepped onto the starlit Milky Way, looking up at the seemingly close star, a smile on her lips: "This is much better than the ends of the earth."

In the lonely universe, the girl was accompanied by the star.

...

Canglan Realm.

"Pain!"

"So much pain!"

"So swollen?"

In the wooden house, Qi Yuan clutched his stomach in pain.

"Am I pregnant?"

He looked at his stomach, which appeared normal.

But he felt both swollen and empty, extremely conflicted.

He glanced at the wooden cat puppet on his bedside.

His eyes showed helplessness.

"I have too little spiritual power now. When I have enough, I wonder if I can summon the golden core's projection to see... her."

The time difference in that universe was huge.

Due to the Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra, would the canary's memory remain before he left?

Qi Yuan couldn't be sure.

"Where's my golden core?"

Qi Yuan looked inside his dantian, seeing nothing.

"Is my golden core still... in that universe?"

At this moment, Qi Yuan sensed something and stepped out of his wooden house.

He looked up at the starry sky. In the daytime, stars were faintly visible, countless stars everywhere.

Qi Yuan immediately saw, next to the blazing sun, a small sun.

The small sun wasn't as bright as the main sun but still shone.

He looked at the sun in the sky.

【The projection of the star golden core is there, and a woman is always with you.

Where the Great Forgetfulness Heart Sutra is, her memory might remain before you left, or she might comprehend something powerful.】
