Cultivation Base Body :
Core Formation [ Great Circle 95 %] ( Ascended Golden Body )
Zhang Dong was hovering in the air, out of curiosity he glanced at his own status screen and discovered something strange. While most of it was fine, for the first time he saw some glitched text at the spot for his Qi cultivation.
He could somewhat make out that 'Core Formation' was written there but all of the other text was just a bunch of random symbols. It was as if this supposedly goldy system that had all the answers didn't know what to make of his cultivation.
While looking at the tiny seed that was inside of him, he noticed that it was radiating quite a bit of energy. It was connected to all three cores, at first, he thought it was just suċkɨnġ energy from them but he wasn't quite right..
The energy flow existed both ways, while it was being energized by these three cores it continued to increase in size. Even a tiny increase in size was causing it to radiate more power, a power that he could utilize.
If it was a different time and place he would be sure to test his new cultivation realm out. Instead, he moved with haste by pushing his new spiritual energy into his body. While he was attempting to intercept Wang Long's attempt on collaring his wife, the amount of energy that he had access to proved to exceed his expectations.
His intention was to either grab Wang Long's hand that was holding the slave collar. Instead, he crashed into his opponent and tumbled with him to the side. Wang's protective shield activated instantly as both of them were pushed in opposite directions.
While the shield was activated one of the rings on his fingers shattered into many tiny pieces. The young man was embedded into a rocky pillar that he had to use his Qi to get out of. He was clearly pissed as he had almost been able to place a collar on the woman he came here for.
”The hell?”
Wang Long called out as he was still surprised at how he was unable to react to this attack. He clearly saw Zhang Dong going through the change and he prepared for the counterattack but he couldn't see it at all.
”Did that bastard ascend to another realm?”
He looked to his own system window and tried to answer this question for himself. While previously Zhang Dong had 'Late Stage Core Formation' written down in his stats, this time it was some glitched-out text.
While Wang Long was trying to figure out what the problem was and cursing up a storm, Zhang Dong removed himself from some rubble that he flew into. It appeared that the boost in power was far more dramatic than he had expected.
Before this fight started he put himself at around the middle stage of nascent soul at most. Even when he could tie with a nascent soul master he was missing a key part, a soul beast. Without it around he would need to be a lot stronger than his opponent to counter this disability.
Zhang Dong was hoping to tie Wang Long's cultivation after ascending but he went much further. It was time to test his theory and if it was true, then this fight might be a lot easier than he realized.
”Liena, are you okay?”
He moved next to his wife who was breathing hard. Her soul beast was in a bad state as it was still being torn into by the dark purple dragon beast of Wang Long.
”I'm fine.”
She nodded but he could tell that she was tired.
”Leave him to me and go help the other elders instead.”
”But…”
”No buts, I'll be fine.”
He smiled at her and then promptly vanished which took her by surprise. Liena then noticed a loud explosion in the distance and turned to it. There she saw the purple dragon being kicked away from her Emerald Phoenix. Her soul beast quickly retreated while she recovered some strength.
She could tell that Zhang Dong's kick wasn't that simple. The Qi that he had infused into it was somewhat different from the golden lightning one that he usually used. His form also looked different, instead of the usual golden hue, it was a faint white one. While it didn't look as flashy, it somewhat felt a lot more imposing than before.
”Take care of yourself…”
Liena nodded and slowly removed herself from this fight. While she would still participate in protecting the sect she would be helping out against the other Soaring Dragon Sect elders instead.
”Where do you think you're going, I didn't give you the permission!”
Wang Long's face contorted into a truly ugly expression. The woman he was after didn't even pay attention to him and the look she gave her 'husband' was the thing that broke the camel's back.
There were a few things that Wang Long could not deal with. One of them was couples that had a deeper connection than the surface ones that he aimed for. He could not stand people like that as he thought them to be massive hypocrites that were just acting out a fantasy.
Due to this there was nothing more that he liked more than to break those couples up. There were various ways that he approached these people. Sometimes he offered them money and power to see them break it off with their spouse. Other Times he threatened them with violence and laughed as he saw their relationship break into pieces.
”Oh, but I did.”
