Chapter 325 Golden Core in Hand
After taking the Golden Core in his hand and carefully examining it.
A look of wild joy flashed across Wang Duan's face.
"Golden Core?"
"This is the Golden Core?"
"Senior indeed did not deceive me, he really is a Golden Core True Lord!"
"Golden Core True Lord's Storage Pouch, Golden Core True Lord's entire fortune, Golden Core True Lord's legacy."
"Now, all of it is in my hands!"
"From now on, not to mention Foundation Establishment True Persons, even Golden Core True Lords, This Seat can also become!"
After confirming that the thing in his hand was indeed a Golden Core left behind after a Golden Core True Lord passed away, a flame called ambition ignited in Wang Duan's eyes.
Although his current cultivation is only in the Late Qi Condensation Stage.
Although even if he faced the weakest Foundation Establishment True Person, the other party could easily crush him with one hand.
Although his current identity is only that of a rogue cultivator, mixing with evil cultivators, often engaging in acts of murder and arson.
Although he now...
But, after entering this quiet room and checking the Jade slip within, picking up the Storage Pouch within the quiet room.
And after obtaining the Golden Core within the quiet room.
The ambition in Wang Duan's heart instantly swelled up.
This point can be clearly seen from the fact that he, as a mere Qi Condensation Stage minor cultivator, referred to himself as This Seat.
He was trying to make his status become lofty and superior.
And just as Wang Duan referred to himself as This Seat, his ambition swelling.
He Song, who was watching all of this from afar, now frowned even more tightly.
This Wang Duan.
Is he not out of his mind?
Has he even forgotten the reason why he came here?
Or is it that he has been overwhelmed by the great opportunity before his eyes, selectively forgetting this matter for the time being?
Moreover, He Song looked at Wang Duan's expression at this moment, and it seemed a little abnormal.
With doubts, after thinking about it, He Song still did not alert the enemy, but instead chose to continue watching all of this happen quietly within the Golden Core Grand Formation.
As long as this Wang Duan does not want to fight to the death, destroying He Song's opportunity, then naturally he can be allowed to live a little longer.
Perhaps, the longer this Wang Duan lives, the more trouble he can test for He Song.
With this thought, He Song silently concealed himself even better.
And within the quiet room.
After the wild joy, Wang Duan began to play with the Golden Core in his hand.
The location of the Golden Core was obtained from the Jade slip.
Previously.
When he picked up the Jade slip in the quiet room and placed it against his forehead, the information in the Jade slip naturally appeared in his memory.
After reading the information in the Jade slip once, Wang Duan naturally understood everything.
This cave dwelling belonged to a Golden Core True Lord.
That True Lord's Dharma name was Silver Moon.
He suffered severe injuries in a battle for opportunity with someone.
He had no choice but to flee frantically.
After escaping, but because the injuries were too severe, and enemies were still chasing after him.
Therefore, he had to settle down here, and ultimately because of the severity of his injuries.
He had to pass away here, leaving behind this Golden Core cave dwelling.
According to True Lord Silver Moon's description, the formation outside the cave dwelling should be able to last for more than a hundred years, and by the time he saw the information in the Jade slip, True Lord Silver Moon had already passed away for more than a hundred years.
At the same time, the Jade slip also described in detail the profoundness and wonder of the Golden Core left behind after a Golden Core True Lord's death.
In the Jade slip's description.
Wang Duan learned.
Golden Core, is the source of Magical Power for a Golden Core True Lord, and also the location of his entire Dao fruit.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying, "Swallow a Golden Core into the belly, my fate is up to me and not the heavens."
Its meaning, although expressing the powerful strength of a Golden Core True Lord, actually has another layer of hidden meaning.
If someone else obtains a Golden Core, after swallowing the Golden Core into their belly, the power within the Golden Core will gradually merge with the power within that person's body.
When the two merge and become indistinguishable from each other, they will naturally become the second Golden Core True Lord.
Moreover, because the Golden Core is in the body, the Golden Core will naturally protect him during this period, allowing his strength to increase greatly.
If not encountering extreme circumstances, it would probably be difficult even to die.
And it was precisely because of the description of this Golden Core in the Jade slip that Wang Duan now regarded himself as a future Golden Core True Lord.
Wang Duan did not know what kind of existence a Golden Core True Lord was.
He was only a rogue cultivator, and the most powerful people he had seen were only some Foundation Establishment True Persons.
Those Foundation Establishment True Persons, were usually aloof and superior, facing Qi Condensation Stage minor cultivators like them, they wouldn't even glance at them.
And when facing them, they would often refer to themselves as This Seat, appearing extremely arrogant.
Even Foundation Establishment True Persons are like this.
Then.
He who is destined to become a Golden Core True Lord in the future.
His posture naturally also needs to be elevated.
After all, Golden Core True Lords are much more powerful than Foundation Establishment True Persons.
The difference between status and position is also enormous.
Therefore, he referred to himself as This Seat, wanting to elevate his own status.
Thoughts flashed through his mind, Wang Duan quickly reached out and removed the layer of gray covering on the Golden Core in his hand.
This thing was specifically covered on the Golden Core by True Lord Silver Moon before he passed away.
Its purpose was not recorded on the Jade slip.
And the reason for it was also not explained on the Jade slip.
After removing the layer of gray covering on the Golden Core.
A Golden Core shining with golden light suddenly appeared in Wang Duan's hand.
The Golden Core was dazzling, its entire body like gold cast, but even more radiant.
Even, soft golden light emanated from its interior.
Therefore, even though the sky outside was already dark, and the quiet room was already pitch black, the soft golden light from within the Golden Core still illuminated the entire quiet room.
Wang Duan, as a Late Qi Condensation Stage cultivator, was naturally sharp-eared and keen-eyed, relying on this bit of golden light, he did not need to worry about not being able to see his surroundings clearly.
After placing the Golden Core in his hand in front of his eyes and carefully examining it for a moment.
The color of greed in Wang Duan's eyes gradually intensified.
The next moment.
Under He Song's gaze, Wang Duan directly put the Golden Core in his hand into his mouth.
Immediately after, he swallowed it directly into his belly.
However.
This scene, however, made He Song, who was observing in the dark, widen his eyes.
A hint of confusion also flashed through his mind.
Logically speaking.
As a Foundation Establishment True Person.
If He Song wanted to stop him, he would definitely be able to stop Wang Duan's actions at any time.
Wang Duan's cultivation is only Late Qi Condensation Stage, He Song's cultivation is Late Foundation Establishment Stage, Wang Duan's every move can be stopped by He Song at any time.
This is also the reason why He Song could allow Wang Duan to move around in the Golden Core cave dwelling.
Every move is under He Song's surveillance, any slight movement can be instantly stopped by He Song.
Wang Duan's behavior, naturally, would not be greatly restricted.
But when He Song saw this scene, what he thought of was not stopping him.
Instead, his heart was filled with deep confusion.
Can Golden Cores be swallowed?
Thoughts flashed through his mind of records about cultivator Golden Cores he had seen in the Earth Sect's Scripture Pavilion, He Song's gaze towards Wang Duan had completely changed.
Is this person not a fool?
Does he really think he can swallow anything?
In the Earth Sect's Scripture Pavilion, there were such records.
Golden Core, is the source of Magical Power for a Golden Core True Lord, and also the location of his entire Dao fruit.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying, "Swallow a Golden Core into the belly, my fate is up to me and not the heavens."
Its meaning, although expressing the powerful strength of a Golden Core True Lord, actually has another layer of hidden meaning.
As long as the Golden Core is still there, the cultivator's Divine Sense can be entrusted within the Golden Core, manipulating the Golden Core to escape far away.
If within a certain period of time, a mortal with Spirit Roots is found, or a Qi Condensation Stage cultivator whose cultivation does not exceed Foundation Establishment Stage, and after seizing their body, one can naturally live a second life.
Due to the existence of the Golden Core, after seizing a body, it only takes a short period of time to return to the Golden Core Stage.
And this, then, is the origin of "Swallow a Golden Core into the belly, my fate is up to me and not the heavens."
Even if the body is blasted apart by someone, the physical body destroyed, as long as the Golden Core still exists, one can seize a body and start over.
It can also be considered a heaven-defying act to some extent.
But, although cultivator Golden Cores are precious, they are not directly swallowed.
Golden Cores are precious.
Wanting to cultivate a Golden Core requires many years of painstaking effort, and also has extremely high requirements for the cultivator themselves.
But after the Divine Sense within the Golden Core dissipates, the Magical Power contained within the Golden Core becomes very stable.
Apart from being used to refine pills, or refine spirit artifacts, there are many other uses.
If taken out for sale, it can be said to be of considerable value.
But even if swallowed into the belly by another cultivator, because the Magical Power within the Golden Core is too stable, it cannot be absorbed by this cultivator and become their own power.
A Golden Core whose power cannot be refined, its effect when swallowed into the belly, will not be much stronger than swallowing a large iron ball raw.
It can be said.
At this moment, Wang Duan.
Is performing a grand drama of swallowing a large iron ball raw in front of He Song.
And it is precisely because of this that He Song's gaze at him appears so confused.
Why is this person performing a drama of swallowing a large iron ball raw in front of him?
Could it be that when he was in the mortal world, he made a living from this, and now that opportunity has arrived, he wants to relive the spirit of those years?
However, just as He Song was puzzled and could not understand, but also did not intend to stop the scene in front of him.
Within the quiet room.
Wang Duan, who had just swallowed the Golden Core into his belly, suddenly stopped moving.
Seeing this situation, a trace of surprise flashed in He Song's eyes, but still because he did not know what Wang Duan was up to, he continued to choose to wait and see.
But in secret, He Song had already begun to secretly manipulate the Golden Core Grand Formation.
The scene in front of him, it was really difficult not to make He Song think of body seizing matters.
Although the owner of this cave dwelling has been dead for more than a hundred years.
But in the cultivation world, no one knows if there might be some strange things, or strange secret techniques, that could allow the other party to still seize bodies of others even after a hundred years.
Therefore, while observing, He Song also manipulated the Golden Core Grand Formation, preparing to strike at any time and kill Wang Duan.
If a Golden Core True Lord really revived in Wang Duan's body, He Song could also suppress and kill the other party again at any time.
