Mortal: I became invincible after becoming sworn brothers with Han Li.

Chapter 170 Two Senior Uncles

Inside the cave, Li Yunfan withdrew his divine sense and slowly opened his eyes.

"Finally—I've formed my core!" Li Yunfan's eyes gleamed with excitement, and he couldn't stop smiling.

At this moment, the originally viscous liquid spiritual energy in his dantian has condensed into a golden core the size of a little finger!

He has now officially entered the Core Formation stage and become a Core Formation cultivator.

"But this time, the commotion is really quite big—"

Li Yunfan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he thought about the situation when he broke through.

Especially after the liquid condensed into a pill, he always felt that there was still an invisible film blocking him.

For ordinary cultivators, once the Golden Core is formed, they have successfully entered the Core Formation realm.

But Li Yunfan felt that it wasn't quite like that. Although his golden core had successfully condensed, his cultivation level remained at the pseudo-core stage.

This made him feel extremely frustrated, so he tried hard to break through the barrier membrane.

But no matter what he did, he couldn't succeed, just like a person without bones trying to push open a giant stone door.

However, just as he was about to give up, a sudden realization dawned on him.

So, as if possessed, he gathered a large amount of spiritual power and fiercely bombarded the membrane.

And this attack actually worked!

He could clearly feel the thin membrane that was blocking him being blasted open by spiritual power, and then torn to shreds by the gushing spiritual power.

It was at that moment that he truly entered the Core Formation realm!

At this moment, Bing'er, who had already retreated to a corner of the training room, also slithered over with her snake tail.

Then the snake's tail coiled up and it landed on his lap again.

Li Yunfan smiled helplessly. It seemed that Bing'er had already used his legs as a comfortable pillow, and would always lie on them to sleep.

However, this time, Li Yunfan did not grant her wish. He patted her arm and said softly.

"You're sleeping now, someone's coming. You should hide in the spirit beast pouch for a bit!"

Upon hearing this, Bing'er surprisingly pouted, revealing an unhappy expression, but she still obediently entered the spirit beast pouch.

As soon as he stood up, he heard the voice of Peak Master Duan Xianyang coming from outside the cave.

"Junior Brother Li, would you mind coming into the cave for a chat?"

Upon hearing Duan Xianyang's address to him, Li Yunfan couldn't help but smile.

Upon arriving outside the cave, he waved to dispel the formation and bowed to the two who flew up, saying, "Greetings, Senior Brother Duan, Senior Brother Li!"

Duan Xianyang looked Li Yunfan up and down, a smile playing on his lips, and said, "I never expected Junior Brother Li to break through to the Core Formation realm so quickly. You truly are a prodigy!"

"Yes! Back then, I was the one who brought my junior brother to the Sword Trial Tournament. I never imagined that more than ten years later, my junior brother would become one of us!" Li Xuan exclaimed in amazement.

Li Yunfan smiled modestly and said, "You two senior brothers are too kind. I only broke through by sheer luck."

After speaking, he turned to the side and invited the two into his cave.

After the two of them were seated on the stone benches in the front hall, Li Yunfan swept his sleeve across the stone table, and a teapot and three teacups appeared out of thin air on it.

He brewed a pot of spiritual tea that he had obtained from Xin Ruyin, poured one for each of the two people and one for himself, and then said somewhat embarrassedly.

"My cave dwelling is simple; I hope my two senior brothers will forgive my poor appearance."

Duan Xianyang smiled and shook his head: "Why would we cultivators care about such external things? Junior brother, there's no need for that."

"Junior Brother's cave dwelling is so simple, it seems you are truly a person who devotes yourself to diligent cultivation. No wonder you were able to advance to the Core Formation realm so quickly!" Li Xuan also praised with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Li Yunfan gave a few polite replies, and then the three of them began to chat.

"By the way, why was the celestial phenomenon when you broke through to the Core Formation stage so special?" Duan Xianyang finally couldn't help but ask the question he most wanted to know at the end of the conversation.

Although Li Xuan didn't ask any questions, his eyes were full of curiosity.

Upon hearing this, Li Yunfan couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself.

However, since the other party had asked, he had no choice but to answer, and could only attribute it to his own fire spirit body once again.

Sure enough, both of them were astonished when they heard that he was actually a rare Fire Spirit Body.

"I never imagined that my junior brother would possess such a spiritual body. This is an even rarer spiritual body than the Fire Spirit Body!" Li Xuan said with some envy.

"It seems that my Fire Cloud Peak has really hit the jackpot this time—" Duan Xianyang said with a light laugh after his initial surprise.

"Please don't make fun of me, senior brothers!" Li Yunfan said with a wry smile, shaking his head.

Duan Xianyang and Li Xuan exchanged a smile, and then Duan Xianyang spoke again.

"Now that Junior Brother has successfully advanced to the Core Formation stage, I will take him to pay respects to our two senior uncles tomorrow!"

"Two senior uncles?" The names of two people immediately came to mind.

"That's right!" Duan Xianyang nodded, and then began to explain to Li Yunfan.

"Our Luoyun Sect currently has two Nascent Soul stage elders, namely Senior Uncle Cheng Tiankun and Senior Uncle Lü Luo. All newly advanced Core Formation cultivators in the sect must go and pay their respects."

Li Xuan then chimed in, "Junior brother, don't worry. Our two senior uncles have always treated us very well and won't do anything to you!"

Li Yunfan naturally knew the temperaments of these two men. It was likely because of their influence that the Luoyun Sect was so friendly to low-level disciples with poor aptitude.

"Senior brother, you're overthinking it. I'm just a little nervous about meeting a Nascent Soul cultivator!" Li Yunfan explained with a smile.

Li Xuan laughed and said, "Junior brother, don't be afraid. Your two senior uncles are kind people, so there's no need to be so uneasy."

Upon hearing this, Duan Xianyang glanced at Li Xuan, who was all smiles, and suddenly said with a hint of amusement.

"Oh? I seem to remember that Junior Brother Li's face turned a little pale when he heard that he had to pay respects to his two senior uncles—"

Li Xuan's smile froze instantly. Seeing Li Yunfan looking at him with a puzzled expression, he blushed and coughed twice before speaking.

"Senior brother must be mistaken! Junior Brother Li has just successfully formed his core; let's not disturb him any further as he consolidates his cultivation!"

Duan Xianyang smiled and shook his head, then stood up with Li Xuan, cupped his hands in farewell and left.

After seeing the two off from the cave, Li Yunfan returned to his cultivation room, closed his eyes, and began to consolidate his newly broken-through realm.

The next day, Duan Xianyang took Li Yunfan and flew directly towards the main peak.

On a cave platform atop the main peak, thousands of feet high, Duan Xianyang respectfully cupped his hands and called out to the cave.

"Disciple Duan Xianyang, Peak Master of Huoyun Peak, along with Li Yunfan, the newly advanced Core Formation cultivator of our peak, have come to pay their respects to our Martial Uncle!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yunfan felt his body being swept by an extremely powerful divine sense, causing the Great Evolution Technique within his body to activate on its own.

"Huh!"

As a somewhat surprised voice rang out, an elderly man with white hair, long eyebrows, and a white beard appeared before the two of them.
