540: 818 Chapter 1 540: 818 Chapter 1 All ten Immortal Sects, no matter which one, no matter how much their disciples fight and have conflicts amongst themselves in usual times, once they leave the sect and face outsiders, they always present a united front.
But, when this ‘outsider’ happens to be a Daoist couple…
Everyone from the Hundred Peaks Sect looked towards Qu Qingqing, curious as to who she would hope would win when her Daoist partner, Shi Xiaolou, faced a disciple of the Hundred Peaks Sect.
Feeling everyone’s gaze, Qu Qingqing’s beautiful face immediately turned red with embarrassment.
How could she answer this question?
Although she indeed disliked Four Treasures Peak, she was also a disciple of the Hundred Peaks Sect; naturally, she would wish for the Four Treasures Peak’s disciple to win when facing others.
But, the disciple from Four Treasures Peak was facing her Daoist partner.
Naturally, she hoped Shi Xiaolou would win, but she could not tell the truth surrounded by disciples of the Hundred Peaks Sect.
Yet, if she were to deny her true feelings and say she hoped Yi Sheng would win, she couldn’t bring herself to say such a thing either.
At that moment, her face flushed with color, she was unable to respond, and could only raise her hand and point towards the direction of the arena, saying, “I can’t decide their battle.
Who wins doesn’t matter to me, it’s for them to battle it out.”
Above the arena, behind Shi Xiaolou, ten Golden Cores had emerged, four of which were Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills.
In one Golden Core, there was the phenomenon of a sheet of paper, and everyone could see a blank white paper void of any marks or writing, even from a distance.
In another Golden Core, there resided a pen surrounded by golden light.
In yet another Golden Core, there was an inkstone made of transparent jade, with streams of text flowing and surging simply within it.
In the last of the Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Cores, there appeared a grinding slab, with streams of black ink flowing within the Golden Core, like a rolling black river.
The four Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Cores represented the Four Treasures of the Study.
The ten Golden Cores emerged in the void, converging towards the center to form one massive Golden Core.
The final step in the Golden Core Stage is Fusion.
Of course, during combat, it’s also possible to release only a few of the Golden Cores, or release all ten without combining them.
But, no matter who it might be, only in a Fused state could one present their strongest state.
Opposite Shi Xiaolou,
behind Yi Sheng, nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills emerged one after another.
Within each Golden Core blazed flames, the last Golden Core’s light was the brightest, with two colors of flame within it: around the outside were purple flames, and in the center, crimson flames.
The flames combined to form the shapes of a phoenix and a phoenix.
A torrent of noble, inviolable pressure surged from those Golden Cores.
Shi Xiaolou felt the oppressing aura emanating from that one Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Core across from him, his face revealing a complex expression.
He too was such a dazzling talent once.
During the Core Formation Stage, he possessed an inner core of Ten Different Phenomena. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on NoveI-Fire.ɴet
After entering the Golden Core Stage, his first four Golden Cores were also all Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills.
People hailed him as a genius, and he too firmly believed that he could face the Wind Fire Tribulation with a Perfect Completion Golden Core of Ten Different Phenomena.
However, his fifth Golden Core turned out to be an ordinary one, and afterwards, all his Golden Cores were ordinary.
Although people still called him a genius and hailed him as unparalleled in both calligraphy and painting, he knew that in the eyes of true geniuses, he was no longer one of them.
Yet the current opponent, Yi Sheng, although possessing Nine Abnormal Phenomemon Golden Pills, was already being considered equal by those geniuses.
True, her talent was great, but however high her talent, she still had only nine Golden Cores, and she hadn’t achieved Pill Fusion yet!
And he, even if he had fewer Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills, he was still one who had achieved the Great Perfection Fusion of ten Golden Cores!
A surge of dissatisfaction roiled within Shi Xiaolou, transforming into boundless fighting spirit.
As the referee started the match, a brush of grayish-brown appeared in his hand, and from the Fusion within him, streams of energy like an oceanic mist surged into his body and into the brush.
In that instant, his whole presence surged.
Waves of energy swept outwards, the surrounding air buzzing.
Visible ripples of energy radiated from him, pushing outwards in all directions.
This is the might of a ten Golden Core Fusion master!
With a single stroke of his brush in midair, the air above the arena seemed to be split open.
“This is a Divine Weapon once used by a Sect Leader of the Four Extremes Sect; they actually gave this Divine Weapon to Shi Xiaolou!”
Amidst everyone’s exclamation, Shi Xiaolou swiftly wielded his brush.
Suddenly around Yi Sheng, beams of pitch-black light emerged within the Void, as solid as reality, looking from afar like cages containing unparalleled fierce creatures, trapping Yi Sheng within.
“The Divine Skill ‘Draw the Prison’ of the Four Extremes Sect is one that only an Earth Immortal can perform.
However, due to the Dungeon Pen containing the Divine Skill, Shi Xiaolou, who is only at the Golden Core Stage, can perform ‘Draw the Prison.'”
