Chapter 152 Mission
The process of condensing the golden elixir is gradual, while the elixir can be shattered in a single night.

As Shen Suiren listened to his grandmaster's guidance, he attached his spiritual power to his golden core and entangled it with a net. After regulating his breathing, he tightened his spiritual sense, and suddenly pain surged from his dantian throughout his body.

"Bear with it, listen to my incantation, and release the spiritual energy from your dantian." Zhu Kuang raised her slender hand and took back the spiritual dew that her disciple Shi Yuan had brought to Sui Chu's lips.

He then conjured a barrier around the restless Shen Dingru to prevent him from making a sound that might disturb his disciple.

"Remember the moment when your core shatters; the Nascent Soul stage also involves this hurdle." The difference is that at that time, you need to absorb spiritual energy, which can quickly soothe the pain.

At this moment, Shen Suiren's divine sense guided the spiritual energy within his body to flow back out, causing him unbearable pain.

She carefully released her spiritual power using the Spirit Dispersing Technique provided by the Ancestor Wu, trying her best to ignore everything else, but time seemed to move very slowly at that moment.

The benefit was that when most of the immense spiritual energy dissipated, she found that her meridians had been expanded to be wider and stronger.

So he slowed down and asked distractedly, "Grandmaster, can I leave behind more condensed spiritual energy?"

"If your dantian can withstand it, then it's fine." Zhu Kuang agreed without hesitation. Cultivators have profound spiritual power, which gives them an advantage in combat.

Some cultivators with substantial wealth even go to great lengths to expand their dantian capacity, ensuring they have no shortage of resources at the beginning of the year, and thus have as much as they need.

Shen Suiren: Of course... I'll try my best to endure it.

Wu Xuanzi's divine sense continuously observed the surrounding area, and each disciple in the room was protected by a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Only at the beginning of the year were there three people present: his father, his master, and his grandmaster.

She couldn't help but shake the white skull. Spoiling them too much wasn't a good thing; cultivators were forged through trials and tribulations.

"Master Wu, do you want to switch places with me?" Shen Shuo served in front of the coffin. He was now over thirty years old and feared that if he continued to cultivate for several more years without achieving his expected results, he would develop inner demons and ultimately choose to give up.

There were many others who shared his thoughts, so the total number of those who went to the Lotus Pond of the Great Buddha Temple to break their cores was no more than fifteen, less than one-tenth of the number of people who formed their cores in the secret place.

"The Alliance and several Nascent Soul cultivators have been sending you messages, hoping to meet in person." The communication jade in his hand could ring incessantly if the soundproof shield was turned off.

Wu Xuanzi simply replied with two words: "I won't see you."

"There has to be some reason so I can explain myself, otherwise my communication jade will be overwhelmed with messages."

"At the beginning of the year, they were breaking the elixir."

"..." Okay, at least it's better than not seeing each other a few days ago.

Several days later, even though Shen Suiren had stabilized his Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivation, Wu Xuanzi still couldn't find those people.

Everyone has seen people who have lost their cultivation and have to start over; it's impossible for them to stay in seclusion for more than ten days.

Cen Che coldly watched as Huai Shan and Huai Ji were surrounded by people. In recent years, some people have become so used to relying on senior Wu that they want to take shortcuts when things happen.

Of course, how many of these people were misled by the five Star Lords of One Coin about how wonderful the immortal mountain was, is unknown.

As a result, those who asked for help started targeting the members of the Shattered Core Squad, having their own disciples send messages one by one, hoping to find out when Wu Xuanzi would be willing to show up.

Juexing was extremely annoyed. He finally managed to take a few days off and was provided with the best food and drink by his master, but someone still had to bother him.

He pulled Niao Niao and slammed the communication jade onto the table in the courtyard, asking, "How many messages did you receive today?"

Apart from Cheng Zhishun, who only received two requests from his elders, the other dozen or so people, including Lu Fang from the Blood Wheel Sect, each received seven or eight requests.

The disciples of the four major Daoist sects, represented by Nie Chengzhang, Yun Chuan, Qiu Lu, and Luo Ning, received the most.

That's right, Yun Chuan, who was competitive all his life, also joined the ranks of those who broke through their core and started cultivating again.

He took up a spot, and no matter what, Sect Master Fujiang would no longer agree to Shen Baiyu participating. Did he really think that it was so easy to rebuild one's cultivation after shattering one's core?
That is a test of one's character and perseverance. After failing to form the core twice, most people will suffer a collapse of their Dao heart and become disillusioned and fall into demonic possession.

Qiu Lu was assigned a mission by the sect. The other three sects all had disciples who dared to break their cores, so Cangyuan Sect had no choice but to send someone. Therefore, she was "lucky" to be selected by the sect.

The other five team members are cultivators from the Asura Sect, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, the Beichen Pavilion, a rogue cultivator, and an alliance. Because they are older, they are not familiar with the ones who usually associate with Shen Suiren and the others.

Other sects on the same level as Beichen Pavilion and Wanshou Sect, after careful consideration, decided not to force their disciples to participate.

The reason there were no disciples from the Demonic Sect's Fallen God Clan was said to be that the people were captured by the Corpse King Xiao Yao halfway through their journey.

Luo Ning privately asked Sui Chu, "Did you do this?"

"It was clearly the Corpse King who did it," Shen Suiren denied.

Shen Tinglu, who comes from a prestigious family, was the least sought after. After all, she only cultivated within her family and did not join a sect, limiting her social circle. "I wonder if Ancestor Wu will explain things to Sui Chu?"

The group looked toward Wu Xuanzi's master bedroom. Not long after, Shen Suiren walked out from inside, carrying a jade box and looking very happy.

Then he handed out the items to his teammates, saying, "Here, one for each of you. We're heading to Guixu Sea right away."

Our ancestor told us to take a walk around and then share our feelings when we returned.

"Shape-changing sticker?" Isn't that just a human-face mask? After Juexing recognized the user with his divine sense, he slapped it on his face, cast a spell with the Water Mirror, and transformed into an even more beautiful young man.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Juexing, you've become too flamboyant. Find someone else," Niao Niao teased him.

Unlike the others, Yun Chuan did not immediately transform. "There are many sea creatures above the sixth or seventh level of the Guixu Outer Sea."

“With the Flood Dragon King Ao Chen clearing the way for us,” Shen Suiren said without worry.

Shen Tinglu then said, "Ancestor Wu, why don't you go and see for yourself?"

“Our ancestor went there when he was investigating the earth's veins. He said that it was the territory of the demon race and the alchemy sect. It would be best for her, a member of the array sect, to avoid going there.” Shen Suiren did not give a direct answer.

Gu Daoyou from Beichen Pavilion looked around at everyone and said, "But if all fifteen of us leave Dafosi Temple at the same time, anyone with a discerning eye will know who we are at a glance."

"Don't worry, someone will pick you up and drop you off." Just as Shen Suiren finished speaking, there was a knock on the courtyard gate.

A dozen or so divine senses looked at the person she opened the door to welcome in, and immediately withdrew their divine senses and bowed: "Greetings, True Lord Yuanbei."

This is a ruthless person. He abandoned the Nascent Soul he had formed by undergoing nine tribulations of lightning in the Spirit Realm, returned with the cultivation of a Nascent Soul Master to shatter his Nascent Soul and start over. He then underwent thirty-six tribulations of lightning and became a Nascent Soul True Lord again.

Moreover, they successfully transcended their tribulation within the lightning-attracting array of the Demon-Subduing Snow Mountain.

He was already at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and was not even a hundred years old, which made countless cultivators envious.

Yuanbei smiled and nodded, then flicked his sleeve. A flash of icy blue light appeared, and everyone found two jade slips and a storage ring in their hands.

"One piece contains my insights from rebuilding, and the other piece contains an introduction to the other six realms."

The ring contains supplies prepared for you by the Alliance.

As everyone bowed in gratitude, Luo Ning transmitted her voice to him: "Senior brother, are you sending us to the spirit realm?"

"How could that be?" Yuanbei released the spatial room and let them all go inside.

By the time Shen Suiren finished studying the two jade slips and the little fox king wanted to see what the spirit world was like, they had already arrived at the bottom of the South Guixu Sea...

Yuanbei released the man and handed him over to Jiaolong Aochen, saying, "When you return, figure it out yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, he transformed into a streak of light and flew away.

Seeing their blank expressions, Ao Chen couldn't help but chuckle: "Afraid of being eaten by a seventh-tier demon."

"I'm afraid we'll capture too many sea beasts and our storage bags won't be able to hold them all." Cheng Zhishun glanced at him sideways, showing no fear whatsoever of the ninth-tier Flood Dragon King.

Ao Chen's expression immediately changed: "Kid, don't think that having a Nascent Soul master is a get-out-of-jail-free card."

"I'm only doing this out of respect for Cen Che, not because of Gui Yue."

Shen Suiren stepped on Cheng Zhishun, who was still ready to argue, and clasped his hands in a fist and said, "King Jiao, you have accepted the mission, and there is a reward for it."

Speaking out means mockery; others can tolerate it, but we young people can't.

My senior master can't have gone far; you still have time to refuse this mission."

"Young? Mortals are already grandfathers by thirty, and the oldest among you is over thirty. Besides, I am the Dragon King." Ao Chen's focus was always different from others.

The Little Fox King jumped out and said, "Jiao King, stop arguing and stop walking."

Look at the sea, another group of cultivators is heading out to sea. If you're not going, I'll take them and let them hitch a ride on someone else's ship.

Ao Chen sneered, "Tu Shan, you're always on the side of the human race."

Furthermore, I was born a dragon, a dragon king, a dragon king, only Ao Qi was a transformed dragon.

"Alright, alright, Dragon King, it's just that Ao Jian and Chongming had something to do and couldn't come along." The Little Fox King glanced at him sideways.

Ao Chen immediately fell silent, for Ao Jian in the Taiyuan Realm was the purest Dragon King.

Next, he used water magic to sweep everyone away without saying a word.

As soon as they arrived at the outer sea, the small team was handed over to another person, this time an eighth-level demon cultivator in colorful robes.

Shen Suiren felt a sense of familiarity with her, but when she used a clam shell to bring her teammates into the space, she recognized her: "The Azure Clam Mother?! When did you transform?"

“When you went into seclusion a few years ago,” Biluo had already severed her contract with Leidun.

Shen Sui-ren offered his congratulations but said nothing more, as they were not very familiar with each other.

Moreover, the little fox king had a minor grudge against her and unhappily slipped into the space hut.

He transmitted his voice, saying, "At the beginning of the year, Wu Xuanzi certainly won't let us see any immortal mountains."

Tell me exactly what the task is.

She is a fox of principle; when she has a secret conversation with someone at the beginning of the year, she will not use the power of her contracted soul to eavesdrop.

At this point, the other teammates lost interest in admiring the deep-sea scenery through the space.

"What exactly happened at the beginning of the year?" Before Yun Chuan entered the Great Buddha Temple, his master gave him many things.

Now that the Alliance is sending supplies to Yijie, how could it be just to visit the immortal mountain?

Shen Suiren also distributed a jade slip to everyone, saying, "The ancestor said that the immortal mountain secret realm that appeared in Guixu was once painstakingly brought from the universe by the Mahayana stage of the Taiyuan Realm."

Later, it was released to be shared by Nascent Soul cultivators of the Seven Realms.

Every five hundred years, it appears in the seven realms to receive people. In the past, it disappeared so quickly because we didn't have any Nascent Soul cultivators to intercept it.

This time, Lianqiao was probably ordered to go down to the entrance of the Yellow Springs, probably to break an ancient magic array and try to make it completely lose its connection to the Taiyuan Realm and stop it from staying.

However, that magic array had been sealed by Ancestor Wu several years ago when he reached the Nascent Soul stage. Lian Qiao couldn't break the seal and was instead injured.

These secret matters were only discussed by Wu Xuanzi with a few Nascent Soul cultivators who were determined to develop the Taiyuan Realm.

Therefore, the Five Transformation Gods, who were eager to enter and use it to return to the Spirit Realm, could not find out anything.

Moreover, they were unaware that Yuan Geng Daojun had received secondhand information, which was not very accurate when it was passed down.

Juexing understood, "Therefore, those Nascent Soul cultivators on the Immortal Mountain cannot come out and reach the Taiyuan Realm."

The attack that everyone was worried about will not happen. That's why Senior Wu is ignoring everyone.

That's what a true expert is like. She understands things instantly, but if she's unwilling to reveal them, you can only guess.

The teammates discussed among themselves: "With the breakthrough, those Nascent Soul cultivators who lack the same level of pills will be scrambling to get in."

"Yes, if anyone wants to settle in the Spirit Realm, they'll have to leave from there, and that would be a huge loss for us."

"Shouldn't it be that you enter from one realm and exit from the other?"

"Yes, the immortal mountain will enter from a certain place and exit from a certain place. It will stay in the Taiyuan Realm for ten years, and when our Nascent Soul training time is up, it will be sent back to the Taiyuan Realm."

Then they went to other realms to release people.

But the problem is, even our Nascent Soul cultivators can't get in now." Shen Suiren unfolded a painting.

Above is a large island, a legendary fairy mountain, which revolves around this island.

She continued her introduction: "This island was the furnace mountain of the ancient Dan Sect, which was once used exclusively by disciples to refine pills and then trade them with the demon race."

At the same time, it was also an observatory that guided the way to the mysterious fairyland, but its current location is unknown.

There was no news of it among the jade slips from various realms brought back by Senior Uncle Yuanbei; it's probably still within the Taiyuan Realm.

Shen Suiren took out another painting: "Our mission is to take advantage of the mutual fluctuations between the Immortal Mountain and the Immortal Mountain when it appears, and search for its traces in the spatial rifts of the Guixu Deep Sea."

And try to find the Vermilion Bird Cauldron and activate the array on it to bring back the remaining island.

The place we're going to has numerous spatial restrictions. Those at the Core Formation stage and above have already tried; the slightest use of spiritual power results in falling into a crack and suffering a severe impact.

"Sending only one team?" Cheng Zhishun frowned, wondering if this was too frivolous.

"No, there are a total of ten small teams exploring different areas. The reason for keeping it a secret is that there are still spies from the spirit world that haven't been caught."

The moment there's any movement on our side, the spirit world will immediately receive the news.

After enduring for ten years, this year they have a way to reach the Taiyuan Realm from the Xuanjian Sect's glacier.

"If our arrival time coincides with the discovery of Lushan, we won't be able to handle it." Shen Suiren knew that the ancestor would definitely keep the Northern Profound Realm there.

She will not reveal the story of the Beihai No. 1, which is known to only a few people, for the time being.

The teammates exchanged glances, and one of them said:

"If the Nascent Soul cultivators give up entering the Immortal Mountain, they can defend themselves, right?"

"If we don't go in, we won't have as many Nascent Soul cultivators as they do."

"Find the furnace mountain and the Vermilion Bird Cauldron, and the immortal mountain will still exist in five hundred years. The Nascent Soul cultivators will have long lifespans and can advance again."

"It's possible that we still won't be able to get in."

"But the return of another lost island is certainly better for Taiyuan."

Haven't you noticed? The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is much more active now than it was ten years ago.

"Is this the great opportunity your ancestor Wu mentioned at the beginning of the year?" Cheng Zhishun thought it was more like a trap.

Shen Suiren laughed and said, "The furnace mountain of the Dan Sect has many, many fires, rare fires of heaven and earth."

"Really?" Juexing's eyes lit up; his strange fire needed to be upgraded.

Others also turned their worries into joy; who wouldn't want something good?

"Is there enough to go around?" Nie Chengzhang was very rational. Without Ji Yu causing trouble, he usually didn't talk much.

Shen Suiren nodded: "Not only strange fire, but the Weapon Sect often uses this place to forge divine weapons. The ancestor said there is a secret vault on the island."

"Of the sixteen of us, more than half don't even have their own natal magic weapon yet."

"Let's do it, anyway, the league provides plenty of life-saving items."

"agree."

"I disagree. You and I are both on our way to carry out missions."

"Which secret realm you venture into is still a venture, right?"

"If we were still in the Core Formation stage, we wouldn't have had the chance to come, would we?" Shen Suiren encouraged everyone.
