Chapter 546: Chapter 281: Entering the Monster Forest_2

As time passed, the anomaly on Golden Sword Peak grew more significant, so much so that even formations could not conceal it. Even from a far distance, one could see the anomaly that appeared in the sky of the Liu Yun Sect.

When many sects heard this news, they paid even closer attention. Gold Sword Zen Ren, when at the Golden Core Realm, was the first under the Nascent Soul Realm, and after becoming Nascent Soul True Monarch, his strength would likely surpass the average Nascent Soul True Monarchs.

Regrettably, Lord Xuan Qing sustained severe injuries; otherwise, having two Nascent Souls in the Liu Yun Sect would have been incredibly impressive.

Of course, if it were not for the Eastern Sect Master, the Liu Yun Sect would have been annihilated long ago. Gold Sword True Monarch would not have peacefully achieved the breakthrough from core to infant. It’s hard to deny that Gold Sword True Monarch, as well as the Liu Yun Sect, have a strong aura of providence.

While Gold Sword True Monarch was absorbing substantial amounts of Spiritual Energy, initiating the process of breaking through from core to infant, a relatively weaker Spiritual Energy anomaly arose again on Golden Sword Peak. Compared to the Nascent Soul anomaly, it was like a minor sorcerer in the presence of a great one.

The Nascent Soul anomaly almost covered the entirety of the Liu Yun Sect, and could be noticed even from afar. However, this weaker Spiritual Energy anomaly only appeared on the Golden Sword Peak and could not be seen from a distance.

This sight elicited peculiar expressions from the Golden Core Realm people of the Liu Yun Sect present at the scene.

Looking at this anomaly, Lord Xuan Qing couldn’t help but laugh: “Indeed it’s a double blessing. There is a disciple on the Golden Sword Peak who is about to achieve his Golden Core.”

Lin Yi had sensed the emergence of the anomaly quite early. It seemed that Li Yuan Qing, having finally gained enlightenment, was about to achieve his Golden Core. After his multiple failures, this senior brother accumulated a lot, and now he had an epiphany about everything. Hence, everything naturally fell into place.

Zhou Yun Feng and Qi Jing Yu, looking at the location of the anomaly, showed signs of excitement on their faces. “It’s Li Yuan Qing, our third junior brother, he is about to achieve his Golden Core,” they said.

“Oh, it’s Li Yuan Qing. I remember his many failures in the breakthrough process. Unexpectedly, he was so persistent. It’s no wonder he was able to achieve the Golden Core with such a mindset.” Green Jade Zen Ren showed a hint of surprise on his face.

Zhou Yun Feng nodded slightly, “Yes, Sect Master. Despite failing several times, Junior Brother Li Yuan Qing never quit and only grew more bewildered with time. Now, with just a decade or so left in his Foundation Life Limit, it’s surprising that he’s finally comprehended the Golden Pill Path.”

“Congratulations are in order. Having you, Golden Sword Peak, is a blessing for our Liu Yun Sect.” Green Jade Zen Ren said, filled with emotion. Even Lord Xuan Qing nodded in fervent agreement.

With four disciples from Golden Sword Peak becoming Golden Core Realm people, and Gold Sword True Monarch, the head of the Golden Sword lineage, soon to become Nascent Soul True Monarch, it’s as if they are shouldering half the responsibility for the Liu Yun Sect.

Li Yuan Qing’s Golden Core anomaly persisted for a month before it disappeared. A Golden Core breath eminated from his secluded Cave Mansion he had been retreating in. Then the formation opened wide, and he rushed out from the Cave Mansion, the killing intent on his body became even more intense.

Seeing the numerous Golden Core Realm people in the sky, he flew over, clasped his hands in respect, and bowed, “Disciple Li Yuan Qing pays his respects to the ancestor, Sect Master, and all the Zen Ren.”

A broad smile spread across Green Jade Zen Ren’s face, and he waved his hand, “Junior Brother Yuan Qing, there’s no need for formalities. You’ve achieved the Golden Core. From now on, we will be equals among brothers. Your teacher will still need some time to break from Dan to Infant. Your Golden Core ceremony will have to be pushed back a bit.”

“Yes, Sect Master. Let’s wait here for my teacher to break from Dan to Infant.” Li Yuan Qing nodded, and then he looked at Lin Yi. He was just about to say something when Lin Yi’s voice resounded in his ear, and he immediately shut his mouth.

Naturally, Lin Yi didn’t want Li Yuan Qing to declare in public that he had finally understood the Great Path and achieved the Golden Core with his guidance.

In doing so, many Foundation Building Great Perfection cultivators who were unable to achieve the Golden Core would come to seek help. Whether helping or not, it would be troublesome. It would be better to avoid all the trouble from the get-go.

Subsequently, Green Jade Zen Ren and some other Zen Ren indeed asked about the related breakthrough matters. All were answered by Li Yuan Qing with the reason of suddenly gaining enlightenment.

Finally, after some time, the Spiritual Energy in the sky suddenly shrank, rushed into the Cave Mansion below, and then a streak of golden light emerged. Immediately, a powerful aura was emitted, which directly scattered the Spiritual Energy anomaly above.

Following this, the figure of Gold Sword True Monarch appeared in the air, emanating a Nascent Soul aura. His eyes sweeping over the numerous Golden Core Realm people, and it felt as if they all were thoroughly seen through by him.

Afterward, he bowed to the crowd, “Thank you, Ancestor, and all my brothers, for guarding the law for me.”

All the Golden Core Real Persons, including Lord Xuan Qing, bowed to Gold Sword Zen Ren, “Greetings to Ancestor Gold Sword, congratulations on breaking through the Golden pill and becoming a Nascent Soul, achieving the position of True Monarch.”

Gold Sword Zen Ren smiled and nodded, “Thank you all.”

“Gold Sword, with your successful breakthrough, I can finally rest assured,” Lord Xuan Qing sighed with a shake of his head. With Gold Sword True Monarch, the Liu Yun Sect would not face the previous crisis again.

“Don’t be too polite, brother. You’ve worked hard over the years,” Gold Sword Zen Ren slowly said.

Afterward, everyone gathered in the Liu Yun Hall. After some discussion, it was decided to have Gold Sword True Monarch’s Nascent Soul ceremony and Yuan Ling Zen Ren’s Golden Core ceremony on the same day.

After consulting with Lin Yi and Zhou Yun Feng, among other original disciples of the Golden Sword lineage, Zhou Yun Feng was entrusted to manage the Golden Sword lineage. Yuan Ling Zen Ren, Li Yuan Qing, chose the initial Hua Yang lineage.

After the invitations for the two ceremonies were sent out, the Cultivation World was shaken. They didn’t expect Liu Yun Sect to have yet another Golden Core Real Person in addition to Gold Sword True Monarch, which came from the Golden Sword Lineage. It was simply unbelievable.

Four Golden Cores within one sect, this was truly a miracle.

For Gold Sword True Monarch’s Nascent Soul ceremony, under the identity of Invincible East, Lin Yi had Jade Illusion Zen Ren come to congratulate, naturally he couldn’t come in person.

Although this Nascent Soul ceremony couldn’t compare to the grand ceremony of the Sun Moon Divine Sect, it was still extremely spectacular. The Righteous Sects among the Ten Major Sects all sent their Nascent Soul True Monarchs to signify their importance.

After the ceremony was concluded, Lin Yi, Zhou Yun Feng, and the others, followed Master Golden Sword to a peak adjacent to Liu Yun Peak. This was the retreat location for a True Monarch, as well as where the main vein of the Spirit Vein was located. The spiritual energy was extremely rich.

After receiving some teachings, they all went their separate ways.

Before the ceremony, Li Yuan Qing had already thanked Lin Yi for his guidance, which filled Gold Sword True Monarch, Zhou Yun Feng, and the others with emotion. Perhaps this was karma.

Previously, when Lin Yi was farming in the outer sect, he had received some help from Li Yuan Qing. Now, with only a few years left in Li Yuan Qing’s lifespan and having fallen into despair, he received help from Lin Yi again, achieving the Golden Core.

After bidding Master Golden Sword farewell, Lin Yi returned to Yun Yi Peak to take care of some affairs before re-entering seclusion. He told Xu Yu Rou not to disturb him unless there was an important matter.

Now that the Liu Yun Sect had a second Nascent Soul True Monarch, nothing major should happen, so he could enter the Monster Forest with peace of mind, help Zhi Ling find her parents, and at the same time, pursue the last remnants of the Xuan Yin Sect, the Black-cloaked Taoist, Yin You.

Once back in the Sun Moon Divine Sect as Invincible East, Lin Yi made some arrangements for the sect’s internal affairs, claiming he was going to pursue the Xuan Yin Sect Remnants before leaving the sect. He did not attempt to conceal his movements.

Such was the overpowering confidence of the Eastern Sect Master. If he chose to leave quietly for any matter like the other Nascent Soul True Monarchs, he would lose his invincibility and the spirit of an undefeated champion.

Lin Yi did not enter the Monster Forest from the side of Liu Yun Sect because Zhi Ling had been taken into the Spirit Pet Bag by Gold Sword Zen Ren from the beginning and did not remember the way to Liu Yun Sect.

For others, they might just wander aimlessly in the Monster Forest like headless flies, but it was simpler for him with his title.

He put on the Merciful Title directly, activated the Minor Blessing State, then used a wooden stick to find a rough direction to where Zhi Ling’s parents were.

At the same time, he also used Virtue Points to search for Yin You’s whereabouts. For the time being, it did not appear to be too far from the direction of Zhi Ling’s parents and the Virtue Points used were much less, seeming to indicate they were nearer to him.
