…
Gazing at the data displayed on the Cultivation Panel, Wang Chen was momentarily at a loss for words.
He had never anticipated that after condensing his Golden Core, the Cultivation Panel would undergo such a drastic transformation.
Or, to be more precise, it had been significantly streamlined!
First and foremost, there was the enhancement of his four main attributes: his physique had increased by two points, his root bone and comprehension had each risen by three points, and his spirit had surged by a full four points.
These improvements in his attributes signified that Wang Chen’s journey of cultivation had ascended to new heights, with both his root bone and comprehension now undeniably at the level of a true prodigy.
He no longer harbored any weaknesses in his cultivation.
Moreover, his lifespan had dramatically increased to five hundred years.
The effect of Golden Core condensation is truly astonishing!
Then, in terms of techniques, the Preheaven Five Element Technique transformed into the Complete Stage of the Purple Palace, which clearly indicated that he needed to change his main technique for the Golden Core level.
However, the most significant change undoubtedly lies in the skill section.
All the spells he had learned before vanished and were wholly categorized under Basic Methods!
This made things much simpler.
What left Wang Chen speechless was that his Heavenly Merit and Virtue were entirely cleared, not leaving a single point behind.
It must be the result of the panel upgrade?
Just as Wang Chen pondered this, a graceful figure appeared beside him without a sound.
Wang Chen suddenly became alert.
He immediately jumped down from the rock and saluted the newcomer, saying, "Greetings, elder. Thank you for protecting your disciple!"
The person was, of course, the fox queen.
This powerful leader of the Fox Clan not only provided Wang Chen with an excellent place for Golden Core condensation but also opened up the Qingqiu Fox Clan’s library for him to browse, assisting him in successfully forming the Golden Core.
Although they had not met before, Wang Chen guessed that the fox queen must have protected him just now.
This kindness could not be forgotten!
"Congratulations."
The fox queen looked at Wang Chen with a complex gaze, “You have attained the Way and successfully made a high-quality Core, stepping into the path of immortality from now on!”
Wang Chen smiled and said, “Thank you, elder. I was lucky.”
The fox queen asked, “Do you want to know the rank of your Core?”
Wang Chen was slightly taken aback, “Is it possible to test it?”
“Of course.”
The fox queen threw out a jade token, saying, “As long as you hold it and inject your true essence, you will know the grade of your Golden Core.”
Wang Chen took the jade token and tried to inject a trace of true essence.
After condensing the Golden Core, all of his power had transformed into liquid true essence, stored in his dantian and circulating through his meridians, undoubtedly more powerful than before, multiplied by ten.
The jade token immediately emitted a light glow, quickly becoming bright and dazzling.
At first, the light it emitted was white, but it soon took on a golden hue, finally shining brilliantly!
“Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, white, gold…”
The fox queen blinked and said, “Congratulations, your Golden Core is of first grade!”
First grade of Golden Core!
Although Wang Chen had a premonition, hearing it from the fox queen confirmed it for him.
Indeed, it was first grade!
Wang Chen’s efforts were not in vain; he not only successfully surpassed the formidable barrier of ninety-nine percent in the Purple Palace but also claimed the crown of the Golden Core.
It is said that reaching first grade in Golden Core, transforming into a spirit is no longer a barrier, and the attainment of integrating with the Dao can be expected, promising limitless prospects!
Most importantly, the higher the grade of the Golden Core, the more powerful the true essence becomes, significantly increasing combat strength compared to others of the same rank.
“Since you have successfully condensed your Golden Core…”
The Fox Clan leader suddenly said, “Then it is no longer suitable for you to stay in Qingqiu; you may leave now.”
“Ah?”
Wang Chen did not expect the Fox Clan leader to "turn against" him so quickly, feeling a bit anxious: “Elder, what about Jiao Jiao…”
However, the Fox Clan leader had no intention of listening, waving her sleeve and saying, “Let her speak to you herself!”
As soon as she finished speaking, this powerful being of the Fox Clan instantly vanished from sight.
While Wang Chen was still in a daze, someone gently tugged at his robe.
Wang Chen turned around abruptly and saw a little girl standing behind him, blinking her big eyes.
Wang Chen could hardly believe it: “You, Jiao Jiao?”
The little girl wrinkled her nose and said, “I’m not Jiao Jiao, but she asked me to tell you not to wait here any longer.”
“She said, Yuan Ying will meet again!”
Yuan Ying will meet again?
Wang Chen’s full expectation instantly turned into boundless disappointment.
He and Hu Jiao Jiao both just stepped into the Golden Core stage; even with their talent, how long would it take to break through and condense Yuan Ying?
The path of immortality is long; how much longer until they could reunite!
Wang Chen couldn’t help but recall the moments he shared with her in the Misty Mountains Realm, feeling a myriad of emotions welling up inside him.
But Wang Chen knew very well that Hu Jiao Jiao would never set this Yuan Ying agreement with him without a reason.
He was human, she was a beast, and there was the Fox Clan leader in between!
And the Mysterious Fox Order.
Looking at the little girl, Wang Chen vaguely understood.
This girl should not be her true form but rather the manifestation of the Cauldron Spirit — the spirit of the Mysterious Fox Order!
“I understand now.”
Wang Chen nodded, reached into his Xumi Ring and quickly wrote a letter.
Then he handed it to the little girl: “Please tell Jiao Jiao that we will meet again as Yuan Ying!”
“Hehe!”
The little girl circled around Wang Chen, and then transformed into a streak of light and darted away.
However, just after the little girl had escaped ten miles, a delicate hand suddenly reached out and grabbed her.
Another hand skillfully took the letter from Wang Chen.
The one who acted was the Fox Clan leader.
Holding the wriggling little girl with one hand, she unfolded the letter and read its contents.
The letter contained a poem.
“Delicate clouds twist and turn, shooting stars convey sorrow, the silver river stretches darkly. When the golden wind and jade dew meet, it surpasses countless moments in the celestial realm. Tender feelings are like water, the blissful time feels like a dream, unwilling to look back at the path to the magpie bridge. If love lasts long, how can one care for the fleeting mornings and evenings!”
Although the Fox Clan leader did not know the story of the Cowherd and the Weaving Girl, the strong emotions embedded in this poem inevitably moved her, softening her gaze.
The Fox Clan leader lightly “hmphed,” shoving the letter back into the little girl’s hands.
“Go ahead.”
The freed little girl rolled her eyes secretly and then darted off.
However, how could her little act escape the Fox Clan leader’s notice!
But the Fox Clan leader did not hold it against her.
With a sigh, this beast lord called out, “Wang Chen, I allow you to stay for another ten days!”
As a mother, she truly cared deeply!
