CHAPTER 560: CHAPTER 441 CORE FORMATION

After a long while, Gao Xuan gently sighed.

To say he had no relationship with Zhou Huang, and felt no sense of belonging to the Five Elements Sect, including this body which was merely a tool for his Divine Soul.

Zhou Huang burned his Divine Soul desperately to find him, only to leave behind the inheritance, not even wanting him to seek revenge.

Such magnanimity and generosity moved Gao Xuan a bit.

Zhou Huang said no need for revenge, but Gao Xuan couldn’t hold back his indignation.

Last time, when the Human Race was destroyed, he was powerless, dying with endless resentment. Perhaps because his resentment was strong enough, he was reborn.

Returned to life, he held every advantage. Only he killed others, no one ever took advantage of him.

This time being killed by the Xuanzhen Sect and fleeing, though he left stylishly, there was still a trace of resentment in Gao Xuan’s heart.

When Zhou Huang came running to entrust him with his final wishes, Gao Xuan truly couldn’t bear it anymore.

Gao Xuan thought for a long time in the dark, ultimately deciding to stay. Not just for Zhou Huang, but also for the Yellow Emperor Scripture and the Kunyuan Divine Spear.

Zhou Huang also said that these two are the fundamental inheritances of the Thick Earth Sect, and the core inheritance of the Five Elements Sect.

Whether for the sake of the Five Elements Sect’s inheritance, or to enhance his own power, Gao Xuan must acquire the Yellow Emperor Scripture and Kunyuan Divine Spear.

The world may be vast, but seeking opportunities everywhere is too difficult.

The Yellow Emperor Scripture and Kunyuan Divine Spear are incredibly fitting for his cultivation path. Even if he couldn’t deduce the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Saber, obtaining the Yellow Emperor Scripture and Kunyuan Divine Spear would greatly advance his cultivation.

In the past, chances were likely scant.

Now that the Xuanzhen Sect is testing the waters by taking down the Five Elements Sect, it’s evident.

If the Celestial Secret Sect does not respond, the Xuanzhen Sect will surely grow increasingly arrogant.

To maintain its prestige, the Celestial Secret Sect must thwart the Xuanzhen Sect’s ambition, drawing swords and engaging in a few battles. At this time, one absolutely must not back down.

Moreover, what will the Ten Thousand Swords Sect do? This is a very interesting matter.

In any case, when the parties clash, the waters will become murky, providing Gao Xuan the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

Urgently, he must thoroughly refine the Profound Nether Celestial Robe and Vermilion Bird Ring.

The cave is simple, and Zhou Huang carried the Vermilion Bird Ring all the way over, possibly leading the enemy here.

Gao Xuan flew another two thousand miles, finding a suitable cave beneath a cliff. Here, the cliffs are steep, surrounded by mountains, quite hidden.

In front is a small stream with clear, sweet water.

With a place to live and a water source, basic living needs can be met.

Only then did Gao Xuan release Yuanbao and Big White. After being cramped up half a day, Yuanbao came out gasping for air, complaining, "Senior brother, I nearly suffocated inside..."

The Sleeve Universe forms its own space, but the space laws inside are special, not like the real world. Being inside is like living in a closed enormous room, both boring and suffocating.

Released from inside, the Tiger Demon excitedly jumped around, it would roar if not for Gao Xuan’s presence.

Gao Xuan asked Yuanbao to take the Tiger Demon around to get familiar with the surroundings, ideally bringing back some wild game.

He also reminded Yuanbao not to let the Tiger Demon cause trouble. Suddenly emerging Tiger Demon would disrupt the balance among local animals.

Gao Xuan did not want to attract cultivators.

With errands settled, Gao Xuan opened a cultivation quiet room deep within the cave.

This quiet room was positioned deep within the mountain belly, naturally forming a crevice inside the mountain, quite far from the cave. He entered relying completely on the Earth Escape Technique.

Don’t think that Golden Core cultivators can fly in the sky, entering the earth or water requires special techniques and special artifacts.

Especially in this crevice deep in the mountain belly, even if a Golden Core cultivator found issues inside, they could only forcibly break in.

The Nine Peaks Magic Robe’s Earth Escape Technique is top-tier. Though it’s said to be from Penglai Province, probably no one in the Ten East Sea Provinces can use Earth Escape.

Of course, at Nascent Soul level, one can roam freely. With effort, one can escape underground. But Nascent Soul powerhouses’ Divine Souls are relatively fragile too. They wouldn’t easily risk an outer soul excursion.

Moreover, the earth holds endless earth magnetic Qi. Deep underground, even a Nascent Soul cannot withstand.

Gao Xuan acquired the Profound Nether Celestial Robe, which naturally merged with the Nine Peaks Magic Robe, instantly unlocking the Nine Peaks Magic Robe’s Earth Escape Technique.

This spell originally required Golden Core level to perform.

Zhou Huang was right; Profound Nether Celestial Robe and Nine Peaks Magic Robe are inherently compatible.

The immense weight and endlessness of Thick Earth can bear anything, but Thick Earth lacks liveliness and is stagnant. When Thick Earth has water, it truly comes to life, nurturing all things.

With the Profound Nether Celestial Robe, the Nine Peaks Magic Robe is like an old man meeting a charming lady, Yin and Yang harmonize, instantly energizing the Nine Peaks Magic Robe.

The Profound Nether Celestial Robe becomes heavier and stable, elevating its level.

The two merged robes allow Gao Xuan to effortlessly control Primordial Qi of water and earth. Casting corresponding magic is as smooth as an arm directing a finger, with no hindrance.

Although he hasn’t achieved a Golden Core, he already possesses Golden Core level strength.

Through the fusion of the two robes, Gao Xuan also realized the fundamental powers of earth and water.

If Gao Xuan wished, he could now condense a Golden Core. This is due to the superb compatibility between the Profound Nether Celestial Robe and Nine Peaks Magic Robe. Combined, they provide Gao Xuan with immense Primordial Qi, saving him decades of cultivation effort.

However, Gao Xuan wasn’t in a rush to form a Core.

Merely having Golden Core cultivation won’t change his situation. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he plans to thoroughly study and practice the Vermilion Bird Separation Fire Scripture and the Celestial One Scripture.
