Gold Core Is A Star, You Call This Cultivating Immortality?

Chapter 89: Continuing the Music, Continuing the Slaughter

In the depths of the burial ground, the old man in purple robes had a look of anger on his face.

"So, you're Qi Yuan. Hmph, Ruan Yixi, you're really heartless, actually giving the Divine Infant Law Treasure to your disciple.

Could it be true, as the rumors say, that if Qi Yuan isn't your lover, then he's your son?"

"My mana is depleted, I can't activate the Law Treasure..."

"Liangye, you died this time, I will definitely avenge you, I won't let you die in vain!"

Liangye was his most valued dead soldier.

With the help of a powerful figure, he raised three hundred dead soldiers.

Among these three hundred dead soldiers, the lowest cultivation level was Foundation Building Late Stage.

Through demonic cultivation techniques, these cultivators' strength increased rapidly, but their lifespan was extremely short.

Most of them had a lifespan of less than ten days.

This was also the method used by that senior cultivator.

Liangye was different. He cultivated authentic royal techniques.

"Liangchong!" the old man in purple robes shouted again.

Immediately, another man in soft armor appeared.

The aura on his body was even stronger than Liangye's.

"I am currently in a critical moment of refining, so I will entrust the main flower of this soul thought flower to you.

In the burial ground, there is a person named Qi Yuan, who possesses a treasure..."

The old man in purple robes told Liangchong all the information, and then continued, "Kill Qi Yuan and retrieve the treasure for me!"

"Three hundred dead soldiers will be temporarily under your command!

During this time, make sure no one else enters the burial ground, understand?"

"Yes, I understand. With Liangchong here, no one can disrupt your plan!" Liangchong's face was resolute.

He was originally a dead soldier, willing to die for his master.

...

"How many people are behind the scenes? Can't there be no one?" Qi Yuan sat and waited for half a day, but no one came.

If there were only a few people behind the scenes, wouldn't that be a loss?

Just a few soul thought flowers were not even enough to fill a gap between teeth.

At this moment, an arrow shot from a distance.

The arrow emitted a powerful aura, as if it was shot by a Primal Core cultivator.

"So dangerous!" Qi Yuan rolled like a carp and instantly dodged the arrow.

He took the opportunity to open the jade slip containing the song.

Then he stood up, his face pale as he looked around. "Who dares to ambush me?"

In the distance, two dead soldiers wearing light armor had a puzzled expression on their faces.

"Why did he open the jade slip and play the song?"

"Could it be that he wants to scare us away?"

"Don't be afraid, his mana is depleted and hasn't fully recovered yet. He can't activate any treasures. Let's go kill him!"

The two Primal Core dead soldiers rushed towards Qi Yuan without holding back.

Powerful spiritual energy filled the entire grassland.

Qi Yuan was like a kite with a broken string, falling to the ground.

"So... so strong!"

He struggled to get up, wiping the blood from his mouth.

"But no matter how strong you are, I would rather die than surrender!"

Qi Yuan said, exuding an indomitable spirit.

The two dead soldiers were also somewhat moved, but it was only a momentary change.

"Kill!"

The two of them made a forceful move, attacking Qi Yuan together.

"You shameless old bastards, bullying a young man like me!"

Qi Yuan held a kitchen knife, persisting despite being constantly attacked.

Under the siege of the two, he started spitting blood after a while.

He was knocked down several times, but he still stood up firmly, using the kitchen knife to intimidate them, like an unbending swordsman.

This made the two dead soldiers even more moved.

"After you die, we will give you a proper burial!"

They began to respect Qi Yuan.

"After you two die, I will also bury you properly, and even erect a tombstone for you!" Qi Yuan was always one to "give me a wooden club, and I'll give you a jade pendant."

He was like a child comparing himself to others, offering a free tombstone.

The two Primal Core dead soldiers didn't pay attention at first, but when they heard Qi Yuan's words, their faces turned cold.

"Finish him quickly, we still need to guard the stronghold." One of the Primal Core dead soldiers said.

The two of them completely changed their style when they made their move, and now they are not at all afraid of Qi Yuan's kitchen knife.

Seeing this, Qi Yuan also smiled.

"Want to kill me? No way!"

"I have a treasure bestowed by my master!"

As he spoke, he suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood.

A tragic expression appeared on his face.

"By using secret techniques, my lifespan has been reduced by twenty years.

But it is enough to activate this secret treasure!

I have lost too much in order to kill you!"

With Qi Yuan's deliberate shout, he instantly killed the two Primal Core dead soldiers with his knife.

His face was pale as snow, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Cough... I won!"

Blood kept dripping from the corners of his mouth, and even a strand of white hair appeared on his head.

...

Outside Rong City, in the palace.

"Gone?"

True Monarch Ku Mu looked at the empty bed, his expression unchanged.

The queen's face was extremely gloomy: "I... underestimated this old man."

True Monarch Tai Guang squinted his eyes: "The old emperor's move is probably to truly control the Tianlong Immortal Realm.

I'm curious, what does he rely on to control the Tianlong Immortal Realm."

"Relying on the Red Sword Sect." Suddenly, a sharp voice like a sword sounded.

An old man in a dark blue robe appeared in the hall, carrying a sword case on his back, containing seventeen flying swords.

This old man is the master of Xuanfeng Mountain, True Monarch Kuang Jian.

"Red Sword Sect?" Upon hearing this name, the faces of the people present changed slightly.

It can be said that everyone present is most familiar with the Red Sword Sect.

Hundreds of years ago, when the Demon Desire Sect wanted to unify the Great Shang, the Red Sword Sect was behind it.

But because of the Seven Colour Peak's peak master, the Red Sword Sect failed that time.

"The old emperor is actually connected to the Red Sword Sect?" True Monarch Ku Mu felt a trace of regret in his heart.

If he had known this earlier, he should have shown no mercy and directly killed the old emperor.

The queen's face showed a guilty expression: "It's my fault, I didn't keep an eye on the old emperor."

True Monarch Kuang Jian said, "Now is not the time to talk about this. What should we do with our disciples who entered the secret realm this time?"

"The Red Sword Sect has the Red Demon Seed, which can produce powerful cultivators at a cost. This time, the old emperor's plan for the Tianlong Immortal Realm will definitely involve many Red Demon dead soldiers." True Monarch Ku Mu's eyes were full of worry. "Qi Yuan is also in the Tianlong Immortal Realm..."

He glanced in the direction of Seven Colour Peak, his expression complicated.

The old emperor hated their major sects to the bone and wanted to kill them all.

With the presence of strong cultivators, there would be no mercy.

"The old emperor should have entered this secret realm through the first Tianlong Immortal Realm." True Monarch Kuang Jian said, "Ku Mu, quickly dispatch cultivators under the age of one hundred to enter the Tianlong Immortal Realm."

Three days have passed, and we can't decide how many disciples are still alive inside.

Now the most important thing is to disrupt the old emperor's plan.

Once he truly controls the Tianlong Immortal Realm, we will all be in great trouble!"

"...Alright!" True Monarch Ku Mu gritted his teeth.

There are not many Primal Core cultivators under the age of one hundred in the Divine Light Sect.

But at this time, there can be no more hesitation.

If they can salvage even a little, they will salvage it.

He had already given up on his son-in-law Kang Fulu and Qi Yuan from Seven Colour Peak, who had already died.

How can a group of Foundation Building disciples deal with dozens or even hundreds of Red Demon Seed Primal Core cultivators?

...

"Boring, being an actor is boring."

In the burial ground, Qi Yuan killed a Foundation Building Late Stage cultivator and took away the soul thought flower in his hand.

Now he already has forty soul thought flowers on him.

At first, he was still acting here and tricked many cultivators to come.

But later, those cultivators didn't come anymore.

Qi Yuan knew that his plan had failed.

But he was not discouraged.

With so many people coming, he also saw a lot of information.

He knew that these dead soldiers seemed to be guarding certain strongholds, helping their leader plan the Tianlong Immortal Realm.

Once they guard a stronghold, they cannot leave.

So when he obtained the address of a stronghold, he began to unleash his fangs and kill relentlessly.

"It's better to take the initiative. Fishing is too boring."

"These Primal Cores are so useless, they feel like unfinished products. It would probably take four or five Primal Cores to defeat a normal Primal Core."

Qi Yuan easily killed these Primal Cores, their strength and even their combat experience were weak.

Qi Yuan even felt that the Yu Linglong who had schemed against him in the past could kill six or seven of these Primal Cores alone.

These Primal Cores here seemed like rushed products.

Qi Yuan slaughtered this stronghold and moved on to the next one.

At this moment, the nearest stronghold to Qi Yuan, a dozen or so cultivators trembled in fear.

"Sir, that person is coming towards us!" a death warrior transmitted the message through soul communication.

Liang Chong's face looked extremely ugly at this moment, as he sat in the first stronghold.

He had already learned that Qi Yuan, who was swift and decisive, had wiped out two strongholds.

One of the strongholds even had seven Primal Cores, comparable to a small sect.

However, they were still wiped out by Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan, wielding a kitchen knife, slaughtered Primal Cores like slaughtering dogs.

Liang Chong knew that even he was no match for Qi Yuan.

"What kind of monster is he!" Liang Chong felt fear in his heart.

Such a genius was unimaginable.

Wasn't that disciple from Seven Colour Peak just at the Foundation Building stage?

Why did he exert more pressure on them than a Primal Core Late Stage?

He even suspected that Qi Yuan was disguising himself as a Primal Core Late Stage expert.

Liang Chong said coldly, "Everyone, gather at the first stronghold!"

Liang Chong felt that they couldn't let Qi Yuan continue to kill.

If they all defended the first stronghold, the effect might not be as good as dispersing, but their combined strength would be the strongest, and Qi Yuan wouldn't be able to break through them one by one.

"Yes, sir!"

"Yes, sir!"

In the burial ground, all the death warriors in the strongholds quickly headed towards the first stronghold.

Liang Chong stood inside the first stronghold, watching as more and more death warriors arrived. He felt a little more secure.

"Close to three hundred death warriors, let's see how he breaks through!

As long as we hold the stronghold and wait for His Majesty to succeed, Qi Yuan will die!"

Liang Chong never thought of taking the initiative to attack and kill Qi Yuan, as that might lead to unexpected situations.

Defending the first stronghold was the most important thing, and there was no room for any mistakes.

After all, with so many cultivators defending the first stronghold, Qi Yuan would have to avoid them and wouldn't attack them at all.

Attacking them would be seeking death, right?

However, Liang Chong underestimated Qi Yuan's strength and courage.

Half a day later, he saw a lazy figure appear outside the stronghold.

Qi Yuan held a kitchen knife in his hand, raised it, and looked at the many cultivators in front of the stronghold, loudly saying, "I, the Heaven's Dao Foundation Building, demand your immediate surrender and death!"

Liang Chong was stunned.

Could there really be someone so bold?

Facing nearly three hundred powerful cultivators, he didn't keep his distance and instead confronted them provocatively.

Now, with three hundred death warriors by his side, his courage grew even greater. He flew up into the sky, looked at Qi Yuan, and his eyes carried a sharp look, "I originally thought that you shouldn't be the Qi Yuan from Seven Colour Peak.

But I didn't expect you to be so crazy, seeing us and not leaving, and even provoking us. You really are a lunatic!"

"You're the crazy one, your whole family is crazy!

I have a perfect moral character and an S+ level of mental health, and you dare call me a lunatic!"

Qi Yuan became angrier as he spoke.

"Facing the Heaven's Dao Foundation Building, you dare not surrender and even dare to verbally attack me, seeking death!"

As Qi Yuan spoke, he swung his kitchen knife and hacked into the stronghold without hesitation.

Liang Chong saw Qi Yuan being so reckless and sneered, "Kill!"

However, his smile quickly froze.

He saw Qi Yuan charge into the stronghold, like a wolf among sheep.

Although the Primal Cores of the Red Demon Seed were far weaker than regular Primal Cores, they were still Primal Cores.

How could one slash kill four or five of them?

With a single swing of his kitchen knife, Qi Yuan shattered the defensive mana of the five Primal Cores closest to him, as if they were made of paper. Without even summoning their Gold Cores, all five of them were killed by Qi Yuan.

How could there be such a strong Foundation Building cultivator?

Was it the disguise of an old monster at the Divine Infant stage?

Could it be that he really was a Heaven's Dao Foundation Building cultivator?

But a Heaven's Dao Foundation Building cultivator shouldn't be this strong, right?

Various thoughts arose in Liang Chong's mind.

His previous confidence disappeared completely.

The sense of security brought by the three hundred people vanished.

"Hurry! Hurry! He's out of power, exhaust him to death!" At this moment, Liang Chong's heart was filled with fear, but he did not retreat.

The royal family gave him everything.

He treated the emperor as his own father!

He was willing to die for the emperor.

Even if he died, he would defend this first stronghold.

"Indeed, killing enemies with background music adds style, just like playing a game, and the blood and flesh don't seem so uncomfortable." Qi Yuan's jade slip played a tune as his kitchen knife slaughtered the people.

He was covered in blood, yes, all of it from the enemies.

These Primal Cores were all worthless to Qi Yuan.

He killed without any pressure.

In less than the time it takes to burn an incense stick, one-fifth of the people in this stronghold died at the hands of Qi Yuan.

At this moment, Qi Yuan's clothes were completely dyed red with blood, and he seemed like a nonchalant killing god, holding a kitchen knife.

"Continue playing music, continue killing."

Qi Yuan rushed into the crowd, once again entering a killing spree.

Although these people couldn't provide any experience points, each of them had Soul Essence Flowers.

They smelled good.

When dealing with enemies, he naturally never showed mercy.

"Kill!" Liang Chong shouted loudly, once again commanding the dead soldiers.

The faces of those dead soldiers showed a heroic and lofty expression.

"Willing to die for Your Majesty!"

"For Great Shang, we fight!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

It was as if they were doing the most righteous thing in their lives.

Qi Yuan held his kitchen knife, indifferent. What was the difference between brainwashed dead soldiers and NPCs?

If their master gave the order to kill their parents, wives, and children, they would execute it without hesitation.

After all, the brainwashing in the Immortal Cultivation World was even more terrifying.

Time flew by quickly, and night slowly descended.

Batch after batch of dead soldiers died around Qi Yuan.

In the end, only less than ten cultivators remained. They glared at Qi Yuan with anger in their eyes, no fear, only resentment.

"Willing to die for Your Majesty!"

The ten cultivators charged at Qi Yuan with a fierce expression, and their Gold Cores exploded at that moment. They chose to self-destruct.

Unfortunately, the Primal Cores of the Red Demon Seed were just imitation goods, and even if they self-destructed, they couldn't cause any waves.

Qi Yuan patted the flesh fragments on his body and brushed them away.

He held his kitchen knife, resembling a major villain, and revealed an evil smile. "Only you are left."

Liang Chong's gaze was firm as he held his spear, resembling the most loyal warrior of the empire.

"Kill!"

The spear moved like a swimming dragon, breaking through the formation in all directions.

Unfortunately, this powerful strike, comparable to the Sect Master of the Black Mountain Sect, was easily dodged by Qi Yuan.

His knife struck Liang Chong's chest and abdomen.

The life force within Liang Chong's body dissipated rapidly.

An expression of confusion appeared in his eyes. "Why?"

Why was he so strong?

"Because I... have a Foundation Building cultivation base."

There was another sentence that Qi Yuan didn't say.

When he was at the Qi Refining stage, he could already kill Primal Cores.

He was afraid that if this person heard it, they would be jealous and come out of the grave at night to find him.

"Is it over?" Qi Yuan was covered in blood as he looked at the corpses on the ground.

He slowly squatted down and took all the Soul Essence Flowers.

He looked at the bodies on the ground and felt that they didn't match the surrounding environment.

He stomped on the ground.

Suddenly, the ground sank, and all the bodies fell into a large pit.

He stomped again, and the ground returned to its original flatness.

If someone came here, they would definitely not notice that nearly three hundred powerful cultivators were buried here.

Qi Yuan held his kitchen knife and shouted, "I've cleared all your strongholds, aren't you willing to come out?"

He vaguely sensed the presence of strong individuals nearby, seemingly planning something.

Since they were enemies, he couldn't let them succeed.
