He Yitian's face slowly gravened. Although he hadn't seen the appearance of a gold core before, after smelling this fragrance which could jolt one's spirit and mind, he immediately knew that this thing must be worth quite a bit.
”What is this?”
”Gold core.”
”Gold core?” He Yitian suddenly jumped to his feet, and his vision became astonished and unconvinced. Thinking for a bit, he said, ”Sixth brother, this is that gold core which can allow people to cross over bottlenecks?”
He Yiming faintly shook his head and said, ”No, eldest brother. Those are called Limit gold cores, and the one in my hand is actually Essence gold core.”
A trace of disappointment flickered on He Yitian's face as he casually asked, ”What is this thing used for?”
”An Essence gold core is a kind of medicinal pill that could increase essence in the body. After consumption, it would immediately provide a huge increase in essence. Cultivating during this time period would allow one to quickly increase the Internal Energy, and even attain the peak of the current layer.” He Yiming grimly replied.
His words were perfectly true. This kind of gold core had huge benefits for a ninth layer Internal Energy cultivator. In that case, if He Yitian, who had seventh layer Internal Energy, were to consume it, he could certainly promote his Internal Energy to the seventh layer's peak in a brief time period.
He Yitian's face revealed a trace of excited expression. Although the use of this kind of gold core was not too exaggerated, for a cultivator, it was a rare and valuable resource nevertheless. If he were to say that he was not tempted, he would certainly be lying.
He Yiming offered the gold core in his hands and said, ”This thing's efficiency is extremely high. Even a ninth layer expert can only consume one pill within ten days. In my estimation, one pill per year would be more or less same for you.”
He Yitian gently and cautiously accepted the pill. Hesitating a bit, he asked, ”Where did you get it? Don't tell me it was from the masked man&h.e.l.lip;”
Before yesterday, He Yiming didn't have this thing, and after today, he'd immediately taken it out. This naturally made He Yitian feel skeptical.
He Yiming faintly shook his head and said, ”Eldest brother, don't bother too much. Our ten day agreement with the Fan family is near. Hurry up and eat it, and promote your Internal Energy to the peak as soon as possible.”
He Yitian glanced at the gold core in his hand. Eventually incapable of suppressing the lure which, for a cultivator, could be termed as fatal, he sat down once again and ate the gold core. His face immediately transformed before he began to circulate his Internal Energy.
Retreating a few steps, He Yiming exited the room and softly closed the door. An extremely minute thread of True Qi spread out, and the latch inside the door immediately locked the door as if being controlled by two invisible hands.
Subsequently, He Yiming found Yuan family's manager of this courtyard and notified him that his eldest brother would be bitterly cultivating and should not be easily disturbed by anybody.
That manager naturally agreed, not daring to show the slightest bit of negligence.
Quite pleased with his att.i.tude, He Yiming turned around and arrived at his eldest uncle's place. Before he could approach, he heard two voices coming from inside along with a kind of strange sound as if a small stone striking something.
An image immediately appeared in his mind.
He Quanxin and Yuan Earnest were sipping tea while playing chess.
He faintly smiled, satisfied with his increasing understanding and manipulation of True Qi. Furthermore, it also seemed as if his True Qi was incessantly increasing. He could only wonder when would it attain the peak, though.
The entrance was not closed. He Yiming gave a soft cry at the door, and He Quanxin's voice could immediately be heard, ”Oh Yiming, come in.”
Ever since he discovered the disappearance of He Yiming, although on the surface he'd shown to be not caring at all, in his mind, he was somewhat anxious. Only after He Yiming returned back at his moment did his mind relax.
He Yiming arrived before the two and and momentarily glanced at the chessboard.
He'd no time to delve into Zither, chess, painting, and calligraphy- the daos of a well-educated person. He recognized the pieces on the board, but as far as he was concerned, the most useful trait of these pieces was that they could be used as hidden weapons to strike someone with.
”Eldest uncle, eldest brother asked me to let you know that he intends to go into seclusion for a few days.”
He Quanxin immediately put down the chess piece in his hand and astoundedly asked, ”Why would Yitian suddenly have such a thought? Is this a time to go into seclusion?”
He Yiming didn't wish to mention the gold cores in front of Yuan Earnest, and thus could only bitterly laugh, ”Maybe eldest brother is prompted by a sudden impulse?”
He Quanxin glared at him. He was thoroughly disapproving of this explanation. However, similarly due to Yuan Earnest's presence, he didn't wish to go into the details at this moment.
