Chapter 253: Whose Golden Core? (1/2)

Looking at the scene, Ling Feng was shocked inwardly. He had never expected Tian Xuan to possess such a potent sword move. Furthermore, looking at the way he executed it, it seemed like there was an even stronger move within the technique. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to display his secret art here. Although their relationship wasn’t bad, they still belonged to different sects. Moreover, the duo couldn’t be counted as true friends. At most, it could only be counted as an acquantaince who held an identical interest.

In the Cultivation World, all great sects would organize different types of martial competitions every few years and use it to examine the whole Cultivation World as well as the great sects’ strength. It was also a means to understand more of the Cultivation World’s situation. Such competitions were also meant to test a person’s strength, enabling one to obtain glory. Everyone would place extreme importance on these competitions. Therefore, in front of their competitors, no one would be foolish to the point of executing their trump cards to show it to others. The Golden Core Realm Tian Xuan wouldn’t be so foolish. Thus, it could be seen as he had an even stronger trump card.

Everyone was looking only at the surface of what Tian Xuan had displayed. What they couldn’t see was the sword Tian Xuan had inserted into the ground. Under the flickering of the radiance, the radiance had shuttled past under the ground. In half an incense stick’s time, Tian Xuan pulled out his sword with a face that seemed quite disappointed.

“How is it?” Seeing Tian Xuan’s expression, all of them had a general idea, but still went forward to enquire.

“From what I know, there is no secret chamber beneath us in a perimeter of 100 km,” Tian Xuan shook his head. He speculated that there was certainly a chamber below. Even if it wasn’t a treasury, it would have been able to contain a person. Otherwise, for Cheng Yu to emerge from the ground would be something that could never be justified.

“Seems like we can only get the answer from that kid,” Ling Feng looked at Cheng Yu while speaking. At that moment, the battle had already stopped. Cheng Yu had won, but he did not kill everyone. He was not cruel to that point. They had all been intimidated by Cheng Yu’s strength. Having fought for such a long time, there was a lot of people dead, but they couldn’t even touch Cheng Yu’s shirt. They had indeed turned crazy because of treasure they thought he had, but they did not lose their mind.

It was very obvious that Cheng Yu wasn’t someone they could deal with. They could only wait for those Golden Core Realm experts to make their move. Although they didn’t dare to go forward and confront Cheng Yu, they still encircled him. And at the outer circle, there was dozen Golden Core experts.

“Kid, leave all the treasures behind. We can let you live. Otherwise, I’m afraid it would be hard for you to be a full corpse tonight,” One of the Golden Core cultivators shouted at Cheng Yu.

“Haha! Want the stuff on me? Sure. Kill me then! It will all be yours,” Cheng Yu laughed. His expression was calm and collected. There wasn’t a hint of fear shown on his face even after he was surrounded by a dozen Golden Core experts.

“Good kid! You are quite courageous. Although I, Wei Ming, admires your courage, I still have to kill you,” Wei Ming looked at Cheng Yu as he shouted.

“Kill him! Kill him…” At this moment, those Foundation Establishment cultivators had also voiced out one after another. In their opinion, Cheng Yu was powerful, but it was because he was also a Golden Core cultivator. Foundation Establishment cultivators truly had no means to hurt him. But to Golden Core cultivators, it would be different. Besides, their side had so many Golden Core experts. Regardless of how strong Cheng Yu was, he wouldn’t be able to compete against a dozen Golden Core experts, right?

Cheng Yu rubbed his nose, forcing out a smile. Watching how these people were shouting about killing him, Cheng Yu felt that at that instant, he had became someone who was wicked beyond redemption.

“Since it’s like that, bring it on then!” Cheng Yu yelled. Lifting up his Purple Light Sword, he looked at the dozen Golden Core experts.

“Haha! For killing you, there is no need for so many of us. I alone am sufficient!” Wei Ming shouted. He lifted his blade, flying towards Cheng Yu.

“Hehe, then you will be leaving us a little earlier!” Cheng Yu smiled. Since he needed to kill, then he must do it in an awe-inspiring way. Cheng Yu’s Purple Light Sword grew in radiance, enveloping the whole battlefield.

“What’s this? What a dazzling ray!”

“Not good! I can’t see in front of me anymore!”

“Same here!”

“…” At that instant, everyone felt that they had lost their vision, no longer able to see what was in front of them.

“Eh? It’s fine now. I’m able to see,” Suddenly, someone got their vision back, and cried out in excitement.

“Look! What’s that?” Someone saw the scene before him and he immediately turned pale with fright as he pointed at the center and shrieked.

“My god! Golden core, that’s a golden core!” Looking at the thing in Cheng Yu’s hand glowing in golden light, one of them was terrified.

“Whose golden core? Could it be his? How can he extract his golden core?”

“Could it be that he wants to use his golden core to exchange for his life?” A lot of them were confused and started guessing.

“That’s Senior Wei Ming’s golden core!” Finally, someone felt the atmosphere between the battle was very weird and knew the answer.

“Plop!” All of a sudden, standing in front of Cheng Yu, Wei Ming spurted out a mouthful of blood. With a face filled with shock, he stared at the golden core in Cheng Yu’s hand that was gradually losing radiance and turning dim. He used his hand to touch his dantian. It was covered in blood and was empty inside. Where was his golden core?! At this very moment, he finally concluded that the golden core in Cheng Yu’s hand was indeed his.

“How could it be! How could it be? Impossible! This is impossible!” Wei Ming’s face was pale, with his face turning dim as he slowly fell down. Wei Ming didn’t die. The golden core wasn’t a heart. Without the golden core, he was still able to survive. He just no longer possessed any cultivation. In addition, in the future, he would no longer be able to cultivate. However, to a former golden core expert, this was something he could definitely not accept! Golden Core cultivators might not be able to call the wind and summon the rain, but in the Cultivation World, their position was still extremely high. They were cultivators who would be revered by almost everyone. Furthermore, they had a lifespan of 500 years.
