Mortal: Starting with the Falling Cloud Sect, I proved my Dao through gacha pulls.

Above the Spirit Transformation Pool, the strange phenomena of heaven and earth gradually dissipated.

Inside the cave below, Su Mu slowly opened his eyes. He stood up and examined his inner self, only to find a golden and crimson pill quietly suspended in his dantian, with vast magical power surging around him. He couldn't help but burst into loud laughter.

"Haha, Golden Core! I've successfully formed my Golden Core!"

His eyes gleamed with a sharp light, and his every move exuded an indescribable aura. Although his appearance and physique remained unchanged, he had undergone a complete transformation, radiating an aura of captivating pressure and majesty.

At this moment, all the true essence in his body had transformed into pure magic power. Even when he was just activating ordinary spells, the power was far greater than before, and could not be compared to the Foundation Establishment stage.

With a sweep of his divine sense, the range of his divine sense suddenly increased from fifty miles to seventy miles. Although it was still not as powerful as a Nascent Soul cultivator, it far surpassed that of an ordinary Golden Core cultivator of the same level.

As the golden elixir was formed, a character also appeared and leaped before his eyes.

[Advanced to Golden Core, Lifespan +250]

Current Life Number: 457

Su Mu's mind was in turmoil for a long time before he slowly calmed down. He immediately sat cross-legged again, circulated his cultivation technique to stabilize his realm, and prepared to emerge from seclusion after his cultivation had been completely solidified.

A month later.

Su Mu slowly pushed open the cave door. At this moment, his cultivation aura had been completely stabilized, and his fierce power was completely contained, making him look no different from an ordinary cultivator.

As soon as they stepped out of the cave, a sound transmission talisman hovered in front of the door.

He flicked his finger, bringing the talisman to his front. He probed it with his divine sense, examined it briefly, and then nodded slightly.

After straightening his robes, he unleashed a burst of light and sped off like a rainbow towards a mountain peak outside the Spirit Transformation Pool.

Upon landing at the summit, two figures were already waiting in the pavilion. Su Mu immediately spotted Elders Cheng Tiankun and Lü Luo and stepped forward to bow in greeting.

"Disciple Su Mu greets the two grandmasters."

Lu Luo smiled broadly, nodded slightly, and took out a silver token that shimmered with light, gently handing it to him.

"Junior Nephew Su, your successful formation of the Golden Core is a great joy for our Luoyun Sect, as we have gained another Golden Core elder. This is your elder token; please keep it safe. I have summoned you here today to give you some important instructions."

"Yes, please give your instructions, Master."

Su Mu solemnly accepted the token with both hands. He felt that the token was light and warm to the touch. The cloud patterns on it were intricate, and in the center was a powerful and elegant character "cloud".

[Become an elder of the Falling Cloud Sect, Fate +220]

Current Life Number: 677

A hint of joy flashed across Su Mu's eyes. He quickly put away the token and lowered his head to wait for what was to come.

Lu Luo and Cheng Tiankun exchanged a glance, their voices slightly heavy as they slowly spoke:

"Junior Nephew Su, it is a great joy for the sect that you have been able to form your core at such a young age, but it may not be all good for you personally."

"The tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind. Your sharpness is too conspicuous and will easily bring trouble upon you. Therefore, for the next period of time, you should focus on your cultivation within the sect."

"We will announce to the outside world that another disciple has successfully formed his core, but his cultivation level is not yet stable and he needs to go into seclusion for a long time. In this way, we can keep you hidden in the shadows and avoid any trouble."

Cheng Tiankun, standing to the side, stroked his beard and smiled, his gaze towards Su Mu filled with satisfaction.

"I know you've always had good fortune. But after reaching the Golden Core stage, the path to cultivation is completely different. You still need to cultivate diligently and steadily, and not be too attached to external opportunities."

After saying that, Cheng Tiankun reached into his storage bag and two jade bottles, as white as jade, appeared in his palm. He gently handed the jade bottles to Su Mu, his tone full of expectation.

"This is a Qi-Enhancing Pill that I personally refined. It has a rich medicinal effect and can help you stabilize your Golden Core realm and improve your magical power. Please keep it safe."

"I only hope that in my lifetime I can see a disciple as talented as you carry forward the glory of my Luoyun Sect and live up to the sect's expectations."

Seeing this, Lu Luo smiled and waved his hand, taking out a talisman with a faint blue spiritual light from his storage bag at his waist. The patterns on the talisman flowed, and the sound of waves lingered faintly. He lightly touched the talisman with his fingertips and sent it to Su Mu.

"Since your Grandmaster Cheng has given me a gift, I naturally cannot be stingy. This is the Thousand Waves Talisman, which contains a super-fast escape technique from the Thousand Waves Technique that I have cultivated."

"If you encounter a dangerous situation in the future, you only need to inject spiritual power to activate it, and you can transform into a phantom of wind and waves to escape. No cultivator within the Golden Core realm will have any chance of catching up with you."

Su Mu quickly stepped forward with both hands and respectfully accepted the jade bottle and the Thousand Waves Talisman. When his palms touched the jade bottle, he could still feel the warm spiritual energy emanating from the pills inside. The blue light on the Thousand Waves Talisman also made his eyes flicker slightly.

A surge of gratitude welled up in his heart, and he secretly thought that he still possessed a treasure that could prolong life, which he intended to give to his two grandmasters at this moment.

But then I thought that the time was not right yet, so I decided to write it down for now and present it to them formally at a suitable time to repay the two elders for their cultivation and protection.

"Thank you for your kindness, my two grandmasters. I will remember it well!"

"Alright, we won't say any more. During this time, you should return to your cave and cultivate in peace, and try to show yourself as little as possible within the sect."

"After a few decades, when your popularity fades, we will formally arrange a position within the clan for you."

"If anyone from other sects makes unfounded speculations at that time, the two of us will step in to stop them. You can just focus on your cultivation and don't need to worry."

Su Mu bowed deeply once more and respectfully replied:

"Yes, disciple takes his leave."

After saying this, he turned around and transformed into a streak of light, calmly departing.

After Su Mu's escape light completely disappeared, Cheng Tiankun and Lü Luo turned around, looked at each other and smiled, both with a look of relief in their eyes.

"Senior brother, in my opinion, this junior nephew Su may well be able to take over our responsibilities in the future. Besides, that girl Song with the Heavenly Spirit Root from Bai Feng Peak is also a rare and promising talent."

"With these two disciples, our Luoyun Sect might very well produce a Nascent Soul cultivator in a few hundred years!"

Lu Luo stroked the patterns on his sleeve, his tone full of expectation, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes when he talked about the future of the sect.

"I hope it's true, as my junior brother says. Even if they ultimately fail to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, they will surely become pillars of our sect in the future. You and I can still protect them from the wind and rain for hundreds of years."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Tiankun raised his long eyebrows, his expression quite complicated.

"I wonder if I will ever witness my Falling Cloud Sect produce a third Nascent Soul cultivator in my lifetime..."

......

After bidding farewell to the two elders, Su Mu fled back to his cave.

Achieving the Core Formation Realm is a joyous occasion, but if it were made public, he, at his age, would inevitably become the target of public criticism in Tiannan.

It seems he must lie low in Tiannan for a while, concealing his talents and cultivating himself in seclusion.

But it doesn't matter. In this southern region, Su Mu can restrain his arrogance and act submissively.

But in that chaotic sea of ​​stars far away in the heavens, you can unleash your full power!
