My Golden Core is a Star, do you call this cultivating?

Chapter 265: The Invitation from the Phoenix Palace

Inside the Seeking Dao Palace.

The Ice Mountain Queen looked up at the sky and suddenly froze. "Did the sun just flicker?"

The Great Sun Flame Emperor also felt puzzled.

The two suns in the sky—aren't they the golden cores of the Origin Heavenly Sovereign?

The sun flickered, but it didn’t fall toward the Canglan Realm like last time.

Where exactly did these stellar golden cores fall?

"I'm not sure what's going on either," the Great Sun Flame Emperor replied honestly.

"Why are you all so concerned about the sun in the sky?" Feng Jun spoke up, sounding somewhat displeased.

Right now, the Blood-Robed Sword God was in a fierce battle with the Lei Family's Four Generals in the virtual realm.

Yet here, his grandson was worried about whether the sun flickered or not.

The Great Sun Flame Emperor was at a loss for words.

He couldn’t possibly tell his grandfather that the suns were actually the golden cores of the Blood-Robed Sword God, could he? No one would believe him.

Moreover, the power of the Origin Heavenly Sovereign should not be exposed.

In the distance, the gaze of the Old Man Seven Wounds was complicated. "The battle... should soon have a winner, and our fate will be decided as well."

At this moment, he was very tempted to grab the jade slip and make a run for it.

After all, that jade slip contained a divine law, one that could rejuvenate his aging body.

At this moment, many gazes were fixed in the direction of the Seeking Dao Palace, awaiting the outcome.

Suddenly, there was a ripple in the space, and all the great cultivators looked over.

In the sky, a rift appeared, and a handsome man in a blood-red robe emerged, his eyes gleaming with a bright smile.

The moment they saw the figure of this man, almost every gaze froze.

"It's really him!"

"The Blood-Robed Sword God has come out!"

"How is this possible? The Lei Family's Four Generals were the ones who killed the Great Flame Sovereign!"

Every Yin God felt a tremor in their hearts.

It was impossible for them not to be shocked.

The Lei Family's Four Generals, each one of them was at the level of Six Steps to Heaven.

For the Blood-Robed Sword God to defeat them... this was beyond their imagination.

The Old Man Seven Wounds squinted his eyes and suddenly chuckled. "Lucky I didn’t run."

A thousand miles away, the Great Sovereign Jasmine's eyes also revealed a look of curiosity. "How did he win?"

From the ancient mirror, the voice of the figure inside spoke, "The battle ended in nearly five hundred breaths. His strength is only so-so."

If he were a mythical being, he could have ended the battle in less than thirty breaths.

This made the figure inside the mirror more confident in their assessment of the Blood-Robed Sword God's strength.

"However..." The figure in the ancient mirror changed his tone, "His body... is quite tempting. I want his secrets too."

"When will the master obtain his corpse? Playing with his body could be very interesting," the Great Sovereign Jasmine said, her tongue licking her lips seductively.

Living in such an environment, the Great Sovereign Jasmine's personality had long since become twisted.

"Give me a few days..." the figure in the ancient mirror murmured.

The Great Sovereign Jasmine’s eyes were filled with anticipation. "The body of the Blood-Robed Sword God with the master's soul inside... what ecstasy!"

Unfortunately, Qi Yuan was unaware of her thoughts.

Qi Yuan could trace people through the network, but he was not omniscient. Otherwise, if he knew what the Great Sovereign Jasmine was thinking, he would definitely destroy this twisted woman on the spot.

At this moment, Qi Yuan looked at the people of the Seeking Dao Palace and spoke softly, "The Lei Family's Four Generals have been dealt with. Great Sovereign Wu Jun, please help me contact the other parts of the Seeking Dao Palace and tell them... that the Original God Sharing Association intends to unite all the heroes of the world, collect all the world’s divine laws, eliminate the Dark Sun, and destroy the Great Calamity!"

Collecting divine laws was still necessary.

Even the smallest bit counts, and Qi Yuan would not turn away any benefits.

Wu Jun’s eyes were filled with excitement.

The outcome of this battle did not surprise him.

The Blood-Robed Sword God already had power comparable to a mythical level; defeating the Lei Family's Four Generals would be easy, right?

"Alright!" Wu Jun responded.

With the Blood-Robed Sword God’s performance, the Seeking Dao Palace might even change its stance and support the Original God Sharing Association.

At this moment, the Old Man Seven Wounds and Feng Jun stood together, deep in thought.

They looked at Qi Yuan differently from before.

Then, Qi Yuan turned to the Ice Mountain Queen and the Great Sun Flame Emperor, and sighed, "I realized that not only does the atmosphere in the Canglan Realm need to be rectified, but also in the Upper Realm."

"Hmm?" The Great Sun Flame Emperor was a bit puzzled.

The Old Man Seven Wounds was also very confused. The Upper Realm? To the people of the Canglan Realm, the Upper Realm was just a legend.

No Yin God from the Canglan Realm had ever ascended to the Upper Realm.

At this moment, Shen Wushen nodded seriously and said, "The atmosphere in the Upper Realm is indeed bad. The cultivators there are too hostile. Sometimes I just casually say something, and someone wants to duel me to the death."

The cultivators present were baffled, especially the Old Man Seven Wounds, who gave Shen Wushen a puzzled look.

Qi Yuan was taken aback. "It seems we have similar experiences. By the way, what did you say?"

"Years ago, my senior brother's Dao companion gave birth, and I said, 'Your son doesn't look like you; he looks a bit like me.' As a result... sigh." Shen Wushen sighed.

Everyone else was speechless upon hearing this.

The Old Man Seven Wounds finally commented after a long pause, "You deserved that."

Qi Yuan thought about it seriously for a moment and said, "Indeed, there is too much hostility. He didn't trust his Dao companion enough. By the way, were you close to his Dao companion?"

"Very close. She was my childhood friend. Otherwise, why would I have been there when she gave birth?" Shen Wushen replied truthfully.

At that moment, Qi Yuan was also speechless.

This was no longer a matter of trust.

People with low emotional intelligence... should just stay silent!

Putting aside the facts mentioned by Shen Wushen, the atmosphere in the Upper Realm was indeed hostile.

"If I ever go to the Upper Realm, I must rectify the atmosphere there," Qi Yuan said seriously.

"Fellow Daoist, you can't go to the Upper Realm. Why not pass your teachings to me? I, Shen Wushen, will surely ascend to the Upper Realm and fulfill your wish to rectify the atmosphere there," Shen Wushen said passionately, full of expectation.

"Shut up!" Qi Yuan snapped.

With a spell, Shen Wushen's mouth was instantly silenced.

Qi Yuan immediately felt much better.

No wonder old masters liked to cover people’s mouths; it feels so good to make someone shut up.

"Who says I can't go to the Upper Realm and rectify the atmosphere there?

A disciple of the Taihuang Palace was being cocky today, and what happened? Didn’t he get smashed to death by my two golden cores?" Qi Yuan lashed out at Shen Wushen.

The Rogue Immortal Sovereign's eyes widened. "Smashed to death by golden cores?"

He suddenly recalled that during the battle, there was a flash in the sky.

So... the Origin Heavenly Sovereign was smashing people with his golden cores.

"Just now?" The Ice Mountain Queen looked up at the sky. "Can you really hit the Upper Realm?"

Feng Jun and the Old Man Seven Wounds were dumbfounded upon hearing this, completely clueless about what they were talking about.

"My golden cores reflect all heavens, so naturally, I can hit the Upper Realm," Qi Yuan said earnestly.

The Ice Mountain Queen was speechless.

She had heard her grandfather mention that reflecting the heavens was just a metaphor.

How could anyone take a star and casually throw it at people?

"Just give me a coordinate, and I can hit someone through the network."

Qi Yuan looked at everyone present and slowly said, "In three days, I will go to You Tianyu and personally destroy the Dark Sun!"

At this moment, Qi Yuan announced another terrifying piece of news.

The Old Man Seven Wounds' face changed dramatically. "Fellow Daoist, going to the Dark Sun... is inadvisable. There are definitely mythical-level experts there!"

He feared that the Blood-Robed Sword God would get overconfident after defeating the Lei Family's Four Generals.

So, he quickly pointed out the strength of the Dark Sun.

"That's precisely why I'm going in three days." Qi Yuan said casually. To him, the most important thing right now was to complete Shen Wushen's tasks.

For him, the techniques from the Upper Realm were the most valuable.

The techniques from the Dark Sun and other Canglan Realm powers were secondary.

After saying this, Qi Yuan's figure disappeared.

He was going to continue completing Shen Wushen's tasks.

...

At this time, in the Phoenix Heaven Domain, all the Yin Gods felt awkward.

Firstly, the Blood-Robed Sword God easily defeated the Lei Family's Four Generals, which was beyond their expectations; secondly, the appearance of divine laws in the Original God Sharing Association made these Yin Gods very tempted.

After all, those were divine laws, legendary divine laws!

Even as Yin Gods, obtaining a divine law for reference would significantly boost their strength.

Facing the Great Calamity would also increase their chances of survival.

"It's a pity that divine laws are too expensive, and we simply can't afford them!"

"Forget affording them; we don't even have jade slips!"

"We regret returning the jade slips to the Original God Sharing Association in the first place!"

These Yin Gods were filled with regret.

"The Blood-Robed Sword God is about to set out to destroy the Dark Sun; what do you all think?"

These Yin Gods now only dared to whisper among themselves; no one dared to face the Blood-Robed Sword God directly.

After all, the Blood-Robed Sword God was a terrifying figure capable of killing the Lei Family's Four Generals, a merciless killer. They dared not approach him again.

"If the Blood-Robed Sword God dies at the Dark Sun... that would be perfect," one Yin God said darkly.

If that happened, they would only need to destroy the Original God Sharing Association to obtain the divine laws within.

Many Yin Gods started harboring different thoughts.

If the Blood-Robed Sword God were an ordinary Yin God, they might have already banded together to seize the divine laws.

But the Blood-Robed Sword God's strength was simply too formidable.

A day passed, and the Seeking Dao Palace was as usual.

Shen Wushen was sorrowful, having been silenced all this time.

Wu Jun was busy contacting various branches of the Seeking Dao Palace.

The Old Man Seven Wounds was continually communicating with old friends, gathering techniques to exchange for the divine law.

At this moment, Long Can appeared again, looking at the Old Man Seven Wounds with a complicated expression.

"Have you heard about the Phoenix Palace Invitation?"

"Hmm..." The Old Man of Seven Wounds squinted his eyes.

After the Blood-Robed Sword God defeated the Lei Family's Four Generals, there was a lot of undercurrent activity in the Phoenix Heaven Domain.

The Great Sovereign Jasmine had suddenly invited all the Yin Gods to gather at the Phoenix Palace.

According to the information the Old Man Seven Wounds had received, these people seemed to be planning to unite and "force" the Blood-Robed Sword God to hand over the divine law.

"They’re quite bold. I'm curious to know who gave them the courage," the Old Man Seven Wounds replied honestly.

Regarding the Phoenix Palace Invitation, the Yin Gods from the Original God Sharing Association naturally wouldn’t attend.

"I don’t feel like going to this gathering either," Long Can said.

Being in the Phoenix Heaven Domain, he had also received an invitation.

But his current idea was to team up with the Old Man Seven Wounds, earn enough points, and exchange them for the divine law.

As for the Phoenix Palace matter, he didn’t want to get involved.

"Maybe the Great Sovereign Jasmine wants to bring out a mythical treasure, gather the other Yin Gods, and pay a huge price to exchange for a divine law." Thinking of something, the Old Man Seven Wounds muttered, then said no more.

Three days passed quickly.

Qi Yuan stretched his body. The tasks Shen Wushen had brought were all completed.

After a few hundred breaths, Shen Wushen appeared beside Qi Yuan.

"All tasks are done. Hurry back to the Upper Realm and exchange a divine law for me," Qi Yuan said eagerly.

For him, obtaining a divine law was equivalent to condensing at least three stellar golden cores.

Advancing the "Qi Yuan Sutra: Golden Core Chapter" with one divine law would yield at least three stellar golden cores.

So, it's not just about collecting techniques; he's actually condensing golden cores.

"Why aren’t you speaking? Don’t you want to trade with me?" Qi Yuan asked, puzzled. "I even took the time to slightly improve your techniques."

"Hmm?"

"Oh... I forgot I had silenced you."

Qi Yuan smiled awkwardly.

He had silenced Shen Wushen for three whole days.

With a wave of his hand, Shen Wushen finally regained the ability to speak.

"Fellow Daoist, I'm about to return to the Upper Realm. You're going to the Dark Sun's headquarters, facing uncertain life or death, so pass your techniques to me—" Shen Wushen had been silenced for a long time, and now that he could speak, he started rambling on.

"Shut up!" Qi Yuan quickly silenced him again.

It was already remarkable that Shen Wushen had managed to survive this long.

"This spell will only last three more days. After that, it will be lifted. The jade slips are all here. Now get lost back to the Upper Realm!" Qi Yuan didn’t bother to say more.

Shen Wushen took the jade slips, looked at Qi Yuan, wanting to say more, but was filled with grief.

If Qi Yuan were to die at the Dark Sun, the severing of such a lineage would be truly heartbreaking.

However, Qi Yuan refused to let him speak, so he had no choice but to hope that Qi Yuan would survive the Dark Sun. Perhaps next time, he might not die so soon.

Shen Wushen left.

Qi Yuan looked at the sky. "Hmm, it's about time to visit the Dark Sun."

But at this moment, a voice transmission came from the Old Man Seven Wounds.

"Fellow Daoist, the Great Sovereign Jasmine is hosting a Phoenix Palace Invitation today and has invited you to attend! She is currently waiting at the Seeking Dao Palace."

Qi Yuan was momentarily stunned, then a smile appeared on his face. "Is she planning to confess her feelings to me?"

"...Be careful, Fellow Daoist. It could be a trap," the Old Man Seven Wounds replied honestly.

Qi Yuan shook his head. "What nonsense are you spouting? My left eyebrow has been twitching; this is a sign of good fortune.

This means she is planning to confess to me and give me the mythical treasure.

Ah, I must have misunderstood her; she’s a good woman."

Qi Yuan sighed.

The saying goes, "Left eye twitches for wealth, right eye twitches for disaster."

His left eye had been twitching the entire time he was heading to the Phoenix Palace.

If there was wealth coming his way, wouldn't it be the mythical treasure? How could he obtain the mythical treasure?

It was simple; the Great Sovereign Jasmine would give it to him.

Qi Yuan easily figured out the key to this.

"What do you think? If the Great Sovereign Jasmine confesses to me, should I accept?" Qi Yuan asked the Old Man Seven Wounds.

He was conflicted.

He didn’t really want to accept it.

But then again, he had been urging the Great Sovereign Jasmine to confess to him for quite a while.

Wouldn’t this make him look like a playboy, stringing her along?

The Old Man Seven Wounds was at a loss for words.

Just then, a charming voice rang out.

"Blood-Robed Sword God, if you’re free, this humble one invites you to the Phoenix Palace for a talk."

The Great Sovereign Jasmine stood before the palace, dressed in a golden gauze dress. Her slender waist was exposed through the sheer fabric, her lower belly's skin was white with a rosy tint, adorned with various mysterious tattoos. Above her navel was a decorative ornament, making her look quite alluring.

In a flash, Qi Yuan appeared in front of the Great Sovereign Jasmine. "You’re finally going to give me the mythical treasure, aren’t you?"
