Chapter 799: Chapter 749: As High as the Sky
Boom, boom, boom…
Continuous thunder roared across the sky as a figure stood in the air, enduring and struggling against the thunderbolts.
This terrifying presence naturally alarmed many of the races that existed within the Longevity World. Both the Innate Gods and powerful beings among the later-born creatures converged towards this location. However, when they were still tens of thousands of miles away from the lightning, they discovered they couldn’t get closer, sensing in their hearts that if they did approach the thunder, they would inevitably be engulfed by it.
All the beings from the Longevity World who could make it here, whether Innate Gods or later-born creatures, were powerhouses. They communicated with one another but were unclear about what exactly had happened or whether they knew the participants like opponents or friends.
Pei Xuanjing witnessed all this but didn’t intervene. Instead, he allowed these beings to witness everything, letting them realize that they weren’t truly strong.
“I hope that after witnessing all this, you’ll stop being so complacent,” Pei Xuanjing thought to himself.
In Pei Xuanjing’s plan, he intended to one day truly link the Longevity World with the Great Ming World. If these creatures continued to be complacent, it wouldn’t be good for them.
…
The thunder gradually dissipated. Thankfully, the level of the Longevity World wasn’t too high, so the Thunder Tribulation, while fierce, wasn’t fatal for Pang Hong. Even though he was significantly injured, he managed to successfully transcend the tribulation.
After Pang Hong had completed his tribulation and received the life essence of the thunderbolt, Pei Xuanjing gently swept his sleeve, taking him away without any intention of interacting with the other creatures.
It was still too soon to make contact with those creatures, at least according to Pei Xuanjing’s plan. For now, there was no need. Moreover, the unknown could bring greater pressure, causing the native creatures of the Longevity World to shed their pride and feel more urgency to push their cultivation harder.
The creatures of the Longevity World were living too comfortably for now. Even though many powerhouses had entered their realm during the Shenxiao Debate Conference, and while they were contemplating on the Taoist Skills of the Longevity World, they also left many legacies in this world. For the beings of the Longevity World, acquiring these legacies was like a rapid boost in power.
However, their current power had reached the limit of this world, equivalent to the Spirit Realm Third Level, but in fact, this was only the limit of the world, not their true personal limits. They could keep on strengthening themselves to solidify their foundation.
And as Pei Xuanjing continued refining the origin of the Taixu Venerable, using the origin of a Supreme Strong to nourish the Longevity World, it would continuously transform and grow stronger, raising its limit gradually.
In Pei Xuanjing’s view, these creatures could still improve themselves, reaching a realm as high as heaven, thus entering a wonderful state where each advancement of Heaven and Earth would strengthen themselves, always growing in power alongside the world, perched at the peak.
However, for now, Pei Xuanjing noticed that in the Longevity World, there were many who could be considered top powerhouses, but the number of creatures that had actually entered this state was exceedingly few, definitely not more than the numbers on one’s hands.
As for this, Pei Xuanjing didn’t have much of an opinion. Every creature had its own choices, and even as the Pioneer of the Longevity World and these creatures being his heirs, Pei Xuanjing wouldn’t forcefully demand how they should be. He simply placed the opportunity before them, and the final result and choices were up to them.
“Master!” Pang Hong said excitedly, looking at Pei Xuanjing.
The Nine Revolutions Divine Sky Skill circulated within his body, feeling the insubstantial and impermanent Golden Core inside him, with the three forces of essence, qi, and spirit intertwining and merging into one. He was also nourished and supported by an immortal life essence which kept his essence, qi, and spirit at their peak condition.
His face was filled with joy and excitement. Even though he had some idea and expectation of the power of the Golden Core Dao, the elated feeling when the Golden Core truly formed was unstoppable and he couldn’t maintain the calm he initially expected.
“No need to rush. Familiarize yourself with your Golden Core first and stabilize your state. We’ll talk after everything has settled,” Pei Xuanjing said with a light laugh.
He saw clearly how Pang Hong was behaving and could understand his disciple’s joyfulness. Pei Xuanjing remembered his own elation when he first successfully formed his Golden Core.
Although Pang Hong had successfully formed his Golden Core and transcended the Thunder Tribulation, in Pei Xuanjing’s view, he had not yet fully absorbed the life essence and his foundation was still somewhat unstable. He needed some time to settle down and solidify his foundation.
“Yes, Master,” Pang Hong replied noddingly, sitting down cross-legged.
He was aware of his state and, hearing his master’s words, didn’t refuse. He then quietly began to digest the life essence obtained from the Thunder Tribulation to firm and strengthen his foundation.
Watching Pang Hong enter mediation, Pei Xuanjing maintained a calm expression, not hurrying, quietly standing by, waiting for his disciple to consolidate his foundation, meanwhile protecting him as he cultivated.
After a long time, Pang Hong slowly opened his eyes to see his master guarding beside him, gratefully saying, “Disciple thanks Master for your protection.”
Even though he knew he wasn’t in any danger in this world, having his master guard him while he was in closed cultivation touched Pang Hong deeply.
“It’s no trouble,” Pei Xuanjing replied with a smile, then inquired, “How are you feeling now?”
He asked how Pang Hong was feeling at the moment. His disciple was probably the second person Pei Xuanjing knew that had successfully condensed a Golden Core. Even if everyone practiced the same skill, the Golden Cores they formed were different, providing a point of reference for Pei Xuanjing.
Hearing Pei Xuanjing’s question, Pang Hong candidly shared everything. Yet at this moment, a hint of peculiarity crossed his face as he spoke to Pei Xuanjing, “Master, the Golden Core I’ve condensed seems a little different.”
“That’s to be expected. Even if people practice the same skill, the differences in perceptions and understandings mean that the Golden Cores they form will naturally vary…” Pei Xuanjing began to explain, smiling. However, he stopped mid-sentence, unable to continue.
As he spoke, Pang Hong had already revealed his Golden Core, and its peculiarities were so surprising that even the prepared Pei Xuanjing was taken aback and remarkably astonished.
