Eternal Life by Daily Divination

Ye Hao was unafraid, summoning his own Magical Treasure.

He was a Half-Step Immortal Golden Core Cultivator, while Xiahou Hong was merely a Fake Pill cultivator.

If they were to fight head-on, Xiahou Hong would be no match for him.

It looked as though the two were about to engage in Magical Combat.

The others present quickly spoke up to intervene.

Liang Chang of the Cyan Cloud Sect tried to reason with them. "Daoist Ye, Daoist Xiahou, we face a great enemy. We should present a united front, not engage in infighting."

The Jin Family’s ancestor, Jinbao, also chimed in. "Indeed. The Southern Domain is weak. If we continue to fight, I fear we will be completely annexed by the Western Domain."

Everyone quickly stepped in, physically blocking the two and defusing the potential Magical Combat.

Of course, neither of them had truly intended to fight there.

Xiahou Hong knew he was no match.

Ye Hao, on the other hand, was worried that Magical Combat would interfere with Li Chang’an’s Core Formation.

In the end, they both recalled their Magical Treasures.

Ye Hao snorted coldly. "Xiahou Hong, I’ll spare you for now. Once my brother succeeds in his Core Formation, I’ll let him kill you himself!"

"Alright, Daoist Ye, that’s enough," Liang Chang urged patiently.

"And you too, Daoist Xiahou. Say less."

"If Li Chang’an truly succeeds in his Core Formation, we will step in and help mediate the old feud between you two."

Upon hearing this, the expression on Xiahou Hong’s face soured, but he didn’t say another word.

But Ye Hao couldn’t stand for it.

"Back when this Xiahou Hong was bullying my brother, not a single one of you spoke up for him! Now that my brother has the strength to get his revenge, you want to talk him out of it? Is my brother just supposed to let people walk all over him?"

At these words, Liang Chang and the others looked rather awkward.

’Back then, who among them would have ever imagined that Li Chang’an, a mere Cultivator with a Low Grade Spirit Root, could make it this far?’

Even his closest friends had never thought he would be able to achieve Core Formation.

Back then, perhaps only one person truly believed that Li Chang’an could achieve Core Formation.

Su Yuyan’s master, Chen Huilan.

The elder had helped Li Chang’an immensely, but sadly, her lifespan ran out, and she passed away too soon to see the day he would attempt Core Formation.

Su Yuyan looked up at the Celestial Phenomenon, her heart filled with both joy and worry.

’Master, if you could see this Core Formation Celestial Phenomenon, you would be so happy.’

’Brother Li, you have to succeed in your Core Formation.’

She remained silent, offering him her heartfelt, unspoken blessings.

By this point, many of Li Chang’an’s friends had arrived.

Zhang Qingfeng of the Zhang Family, Zhou Sheng and Zhou Yunqiao of the Zhou Family, Mu Caiwei and Mu Siyue of the Mu Family, and more...

Like Su Yuyan, they all remained silent, not making a single sound. They simply stood there, quietly trying to gain insight from the Core Formation Celestial Phenomenon while secretly praying for Li Chang’an’s success.

Mo Qingxue stood in the distance, her eyes fixed on the Celestial Phenomenon, a complicated feeling stirring in her heart.

’Core Formation is such a major event... I can understand him not coming to my Mo Family’s Spiritual Land, but to not even tell me beforehand? Doesn’t he trust me?’

With a flicker, she moved to the western side of Changqing Mountain and spread out her Golden Core Divine Sense, keeping a vigilant watch for any ambushing Golden Core Cultivators from the Western Domain.

In her opinion, what Li Chang’an was doing today was far too risky.

Even if he was determined to attempt Core Formation, he should have gone to the much safer Mo Clan Territory.

He shouldn’t have done it directly on Changqing Mountain.

Ye Hao and the others also kept a close watch on their surroundings.

The moment any Golden Core Cultivator from the Western Domain appeared, they would immediately intercept them to prevent any interference with Li Chang’an’s Core Formation.

「Two days passed in a flash.」

The Celestial Phenomenon remained stable, showing no signs of dissipating.

There was also no sign of movement from the people of the Western Domain.

All of Changqing Mountain was eerily quiet.

In a secret chamber deep within Changqing Mountain.

Li Chang’an sat cross-legged and motionless, his aura steadily rising.

Within his Dantian, at the very center of the vortex of Magical Power, a speck of golden light suddenly appeared.

Joy surged in his heart at the sight of this golden light.

This golden light was the nascent form of the Immortal Golden Core!

’Thank goodness, nothing went wrong!’

The tension that had been gripping Li Chang’an’s heart finally eased a little.

Next, all he had to do was follow the established procedure and continue absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power.

As time passed, the golden light in his Dantian gradually coalesced into a golden bean.

Li Chang’an absorbed ever-increasing amounts of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power, all of which flowed into the golden bean, nourishing its growth.

「One day later.」

The golden bean had grown to the size of a common soybean.

Li Chang’an remained completely focused, pouring almost all of his energy into the process.

「Another two days passed.」

The golden bean in the center of his Dantian was now the size of a thumb and was gradually becoming perfectly round, like an Elixir Pill.

The golden hue on its surface grew increasingly brilliant and dazzling, resembling a miniature sun.

At noon that day.

A tremor ran through Li Chang’an’s entire body.

Within his Dantian, the golden Elixir Pill gave a final, smooth spin, absorbing the last wisp of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power and transforming completely into a perfectly round, brilliant Golden Core!

’Success!’

Joy erupted in Li Chang’an’s heart.

The Immortal Golden Core was finally formed!

At the same cultivation stage, the amount of Magical Power contained within this Immortal Golden Core far surpassed that of a True Pill or a Fake Pill.

Furthermore, it represented one’s potential within the Golden Core Stage.

If word got out that Li Chang’an had formed an Immortal Golden Core, the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the Purple Mist Sect would almost certainly come in person, take him to the Sect, and declare him its Saint Child.

But Li Chang’an had no intention of being so high-profile; he just wanted to cultivate in peace.

’I’ve passed the Magic Power Barrier. All that’s left is the final Divine Sense Barrier. Since my Divine Sense has already reached Tier Three, this last step will be no trouble at all.’

As things stood, Li Chang’an could already be considered a Golden Core Cultivator.

He was about to press forward in one final push, break through the Divine Sense Barrier, and truly step onto the Golden Core Dao.

But just then, he suddenly sensed a Treasure calling to him from a great distance.

’What’s going on?’

Confusion bloomed in Li Chang’an’s mind.

The Evergreen Magical Power within his body began to circulate rapidly, as if responding to the Treasure’s call.
