Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 531 The Golden Core Ceremony (Seeking Subscriptions)

Master Mizong laughed and said, "There definitely is. Don't worry, Junior Brother Shen, I will definitely plan this well for you and will never let you suffer any losses!"

Shen Xuan asked, "By the way, Senior Brother Mizong, why aren't the newly promoted Golden Core cultivators from the Xuantian Sect and the Jinyang Sect participating?"

"Junior Brother Shen, you really don't take Golden Core cultivators seriously!"

"The last Golden Core cultivator in the Golden Sun Sect was fifty years ago! The Xuan Tian Sect did have a newly promoted Golden Core cultivator a few years ago."

"However, that person was not confident that he could break the Yuan Magnetic Evil Light, so he dared not make a move."

Shen Xuan asked curiously, "How did you know, Senior Brother, that Junior Brother could break the Yuan Magnetic Evil Light?"

"I don't know."

The Mysterious Master said with a puzzled look, "Aren't you a Dharma Aspect Realm Body Refiner? Now that you've reached the Golden Core stage, your physical strength has increased at least three to five times."

“I originally thought that you would transform into your true spirit form, prevent him from releasing his magnetic evil light, and kill him with a single blow.”

Shen Xuan's face darkened.

So that's what the Lost Immortal was thinking.

Simple and crude.

He had a great deal of trust in Shen Xuan's physical strength.

"Junior Brother Shen, can you really break through the Yuan Magnetic Aura?"

"I'm 70% sure. If Zhuo Wuyan has recorded it, I'm even more certain."

It seemed as if the mysterious master had just remembered.

"By the way, Junior Brother Shen, have you comprehended the Ice Magic Divine Power?"

Shen Xuan nodded slowly.

"That's good!"

"As long as Junior Brother Shen resolves the matter of Zhuo Wuyan, I will definitely give you an explanation regarding the Golden Core Dojo."

"That's what the mysterious master promised."

"Golden Core Cultivation Ground?"

Shen Xuan's heart stirred, and he asked, "Is it a third-tier high-grade spirit peak, or the location of a third-tier ice spirit vein?"

Without hesitation, Master Mizong said, "You may choose either of these two spiritual sites, Junior Brother Shen."

"Thank you, Senior Brother. As for the matter of fighting Zhuo Wuyan, I might be willing to give it a try."

In fact, Shen Xuan was definitely going to come out and fight.

Hit a punch to avoid a hundred punches.

Show your prowess on the battlefield and achieve victory.

It will be much easier to do things in the future.

After all, without absolute certainty...

No one wanted to face a formidable enemy like a Golden Core cultivator under the tree.

Afterwards, Shen Xuan went to pay his respects to Master Tianfeng and Master Tianlei.

Regardless, they are both Golden Core cultivators of the Qingyun Sect.

There was no deep-seated hatred between them.

At this point, there will be no confrontation.

Master Tianfeng is alright; he was neutral to begin with.

At this moment, he called Shen Junior Brother affectionately.

Although Master Tianlei looked serious.

He privately expressed his apologies to Shen Xuan.

"Junior Brother Shen, my eyesight is failing. Regardless of who was right or wrong in the past, please give me some face and let's not bring it up again, okay?"

"Senior Brother Tianlei, you flatter me!"

Shen Xuan immediately clasped his hands in a salute.

"I hope Senior Brother Tianlei will continue to guide me in the future."

The two exchanged a knowing smile, understanding each other perfectly.

The two of them definitely can't become friends.

However, they both belong to the Qingyun Sect and are both Golden Core cultivators.

There's no need for us to fight each other.

Ultimately, it was nothing more than a misunderstanding between the younger generation.

Lei Yaoyang has now passed away.

Master Tianlei never pursued the matter.

Shen Xuan didn't need to fight to the death with Tianlei Zhenren.

After that, Shen Xuan hid in his cave, focusing on cultivation and waiting for the Core Formation Ceremony.

During that time, Lü Zhengying came by once.

Previously, the Qingyun Sect had frozen the sale of spiritual veins in its core area.

Now, Shen Xuan has condensed his golden core and returned to his sect.

The Master Tongxuan personally selected a sacred mountain for him.

It's a second-tier high-grade item, and it's cheap, costing only one million spirit stones.

Lu Zhengying finally got his wish and established the Lu family in the core area of ​​Qingyun Mountain.

Shen Xuan chatted with him for a while.

Ask him to take care of the Shen family's descendants in Qingyun Immortal City.

Lü Zhengying immediately swore an oath to heaven.

As long as one member of the Lü clan is alive, they will protect the safety of the Shen family's descendants.

Upon returning, they immediately selected several elite clansmen to arrange marriages with the Shen family's offspring.

……

The days passed by.

Qingyun Sect, Hanyu Peak.

Today, Hanyu Peak is brightly decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, surrounded by auspicious clouds, and the cries of cranes can be heard.

The plaza, paved with white jade, was filled with thousands of seats, attracting a large number of guests and exuding a vibrant atmosphere.

On the high platform, the Sect Master, Master Mizong, had a ruddy complexion, with Shen Xuan, Master Tianfeng, and Master Tianlei by his side. His expression was full of satisfaction and pride.

Below the stage, the Foundation Establishment disciples of the Qingyun Sect all stood solemnly, their faces beaming with pride.

Regardless of their true intentions, at least outwardly, they all displayed pride.

Today, the Qingyun Sect is holding a Golden Core Ceremony for Shen Xuan, the newly promoted Golden Core cultivator.

"The Xuan Tian Sect has received the arrival of True Person Xuan Wen! He congratulates True Person Shen Xuan on achieving the Golden Core and presents a thousand-year-old Condensing Yuan Ganoderma!"

"Jin Yang Sect, True Person Lie Yang has arrived! Congratulations to True Person Shen Xuan on his boundless path to immortality, and I present him with a piece of Crimson Sun Warm Jade!"

"The Mysterious Bamboo Sect has received the arrival of the Wondrous Sound Immortal! To congratulate Immortal Shen Xuan on his long and prosperous path of cultivation, we present a thousand-year-old Wondrous Sound Bamboo!"

The sounds of greetings and congratulations were incessant. Major righteous sects within the Liang Kingdom dispatched their most important figures to present generous gifts, their words filled with the intention of making friends and offering congratulations.

For medium-sized sects like Xuanzhu Sect, the sect leader, Master Miaoyin, personally attended the ceremony.

The mysterious master returned the greetings with smiles, creating a lively and extraordinary scene.

An hour later, all the invited guests had arrived.

However, the following chanting caused the atmosphere in the audience to suddenly freeze.

"The Hehuan Sect of Liang Kingdom, the True Person Wanmeng has arrived! To congratulate Fellow Daoist Shen on achieving the Golden Core, I present a Netherworld Demon Flower."

The Demon Lord Wanmeng, dressed in her finest attire and beaming with smiles, presented her congratulatory gift. Her beautiful eyes lingered on Shen Xuan, who sat quietly on the high platform, her gaze holding a meaningful look for several moments.

"The White Bone Sect of Liang Kingdom, Venerable Sha Gu has arrived! Congratulations to True Person Shen Xuan on achieving the Golden Core. We present a thousand-year-old Sha Gu."

"The Blood Spirit Sect of Liang Kingdom, Venerable Blood River has arrived! Congratulations to True Person Shen Xuan on achieving the Golden Core stage. I present you with a Blood Sea Spirit Flower."

"Liang Kingdom Yin Sha Sect..."

All six major demonic sects of Liang Kingdom were present, sending guests at the True Core Demon Lord level.

These demon lords concealed their auras, but the sinister and malevolent energy emanating from them still made the nearby spiritual cultivators feel uncomfortable, and they all gave way to them.

The mysterious master remained calm and greeted them with a smile.

These True Core Demon Lords, though not particularly powerful, represent the six major demonic sects of the Liang Kingdom.

He knew it.

These True Core Demon Lords came to use Shen Xuan's Core Formation Ceremony as an opportunity to probe the true strength of the Qingyun Sect and the seven sects of the Song Kingdom.

Can they continue to withstand the attacks from the five clans of Yan?

The auspicious time has arrived.

The mysterious master was about to announce the start of the celebration.

At this moment, a loud and clear greeting came from outside the mountain gate, moving everyone present.

"The True Meaning Sect of Yan Kingdom, Master Xianyi has arrived! Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Shen Xuan of the Qingyun Sect on his Golden Core attainment!"

As the voice faded, an old Taoist priest, dressed in a dark purple robe and with a gaunt face, entered slowly, accompanied by two disciples.

The True Meaning Sect of Yan State!
One of the Five Ancestors of the Yan State.

Even in the Yan Kingdom, they were among the top two major sects.

In fact, its strength is no less than that of the Xuantian Sect.

Now, with the sects of Yan and Song locked in a great war, the Golden Elixir Master of the Zhenyi Sect has come to visit in person.

He didn't even bring a gift and went straight to the Qingyun Sect.

The visitor is not good.

Master Xianyi's gaze was like lightning, instantly piercing through the crowd and landing on the high platform.

His divine sense lingered for a long time on Shen Xuan, who was wearing a brand-new Qingyun Daoist robe and had a smile on his face.

A barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The intent to spy is blatant and undisguised.

In that instant, the entire venue fell silent, and all eyes were focused on Shen Xuan and Xianyi Zhenren.

The atmosphere suddenly became somber.

The Mysterious Master's expression darkened, and he was about to speak.

At this moment, Shen Xuan, who had been silent all along, slowly spoke from the high platform.

“The True Immortal Xianyi of the Zhenyi Sect has come from afar; I, Shen, have failed to greet him properly.”

The sound was not loud, but it clearly reached the ears of everyone present.

"Since you have come to observe the ceremony, you are a guest. Please, Master Xianyi, take your seat."

Xianyi Zhenren is a Jindan Zhenren.

Master Mizong gestured, and the sect's stewards quickly added a seat in the front row, next to Master Xuanwen and Master Lieyang.

When Xianyi Zhenren's divine sense briefly clashed with Shen Xuan's, he felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were being stared at by a primordial ice beast.

Such powerful spiritual sense!
This person has just condensed his Golden Core, and the strength of his spiritual sense is no less than mine!

Master Xianyi snorted coldly, suppressing the strange emotions in his heart, and strode confidently to the newly added seat, where he sat down calmly.

Shen Xuan ignored him and turned to look at the Mysterious Master, nodding slightly.

The Master of Lost Tracks understood, took a deep breath, and said loudly:

"The auspicious hour has arrived! The Grand Ceremony of True Immortal Shen Xuan to Reach the Golden Core stage officially begins!"

Ritual music began to play.

Everyone's attention was no longer on the ceremony itself.

This grand ceremony will not end peacefully.

……

The square, on the high platform.

As the sect leader of Qingyun Sect, Master Mizong sat in the very center.

Shen Xuan, as the main figure of the celebration, stood on the left.

This is the most prestigious aspect, aside from the Mysterious Master.

Master Tianfeng and Master Tianlei sat on either side.

For Shen Xuan's Golden Core Ceremony, three of the five Golden Core cultivators from the Qingyun Sect were present.

Originally, Master Lingjian was also supposed to come.

However, there were some changes on the front lines.

Originally, the Qingyun Sect was already at a disadvantage.

Therefore, Master Lingjian wrote a letter to express his apologies.

The Hidden Man was stationed within the protective array of the Qingyun Sect, just in case.

At the guest seats, Xuanwen Zhenren of Xuantian Sect and Lieyang Zhenren of Jinyang Sect were the leaders, followed by Xianyi Zhenren of Zhenyi Sect and Miaoyin Zhenren of Xuanzhu Sect, among others, arranged in order of status and strength.

A banquet was set up in the Jade Square.

Various delicacies, eight-treasure jade dishes, and spiritual wines and teas were served one by one.

The male and female disciples of the Qingyun Sect, along with the invited performance troupe, stepped forward to sing and dance.

After three rounds of drinking.

Master Xuanwen personally came to Master Xianyi and offered him a toast.

"Fellow Daoist Xianyi, it's been many years since we last met, but your charm remains unchanged."

The Immortal of Leisure smiled faintly and drank the spiritual wine in his cup.

“Fellow Daoist Xuandao, your Xuantian Sect’s Xiaoyao Zhenren’s Core Formation Ceremony is not as good as Qingyun Sect’s Shen Zhenren.”

This is blatant provocation.

As a Golden Core cultivator of the Xuan Tian Sect, Master Xuanwen saw through this petty trick at a glance.

At this time, the State of Song was at a disadvantage.

As the head of the seven sects of the Song Kingdom, the Xuantian Sect aims to unite all forces of the Song Kingdom to fight against the sects of the Yan Kingdom.

This kind of childish divide-and-conquer tactic is meaningless.

However, a sentence that Immortal Xianyi said immediately afterward made his expression change.

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Dao, True Man Xiaoyao, when will you have a chance to spar with True Man Zhuo Wuyan of my sect?"

"Let us also broaden our horizons and witness the abilities of the Great Golden Core True Person of the Song Kingdom."

These words left Master Xuanwen speechless with embarrassment.

The Carefree Immortal is the only newly promoted Golden Core cultivator in the Xuantian Sect in recent years.

However, his Daoist name was Xiaoyao, and he was a wood-based cultivator, not known for his combat skills.

Zhuo Wuyan's Yuan Magnetic Fiend Light Divine Power is precisely his nemesis.

Although he is a Golden Core cultivator, he is slightly superior in terms of spiritual power, soul, consciousness, and physical body.

However, in terms of supernatural powers, they are naturally restrained.

When the two clashed, Master Xiaoyao had no chance of winning.
