Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

Chapter 673 -673: Struggling Against the Golden Core (Part 1)

“Control!”

An almost transparent giant hand suddenly appeared in the sky, its palm facing downward, aimed directly at Wang Chen, who was fleeing in a flash.

Vast majestic power descended with it, enveloping him!

This was the Golden Core Domain.

After a cultivator broke through their mansion, they laid the foundation for solidifying the pill.

The true foundation.

...

More than ninety-nine percent of cultivators at the Purple Mansion would toil until the end of their lives without breaking through to the Golden Core Realm, but once a Golden Core was condensed, the cultivation level was sublimated and the domain expanded, with strength increasing geometrically.

The Golden Core Domain was the exclusive mighty aura of a Golden Core True Person!

Within the domain, unless there was an opposing force of the same level or stronger, one would inevitably be severely suppressed.

Holding the adversary’s life and death in one’s hands, hence named “Control!”

Compared to the earlier “Imprisonment”, True Person Ye’s Golden Core Domain had an undoubtedly greater effect on Wang Chen.

Before, he was only limited in strength, but now it seemed as if his entire being was frozen and sealed, unable to move even a finger.

Then, True Person Ye swiftly approached from behind, reaching out a hand towards Wang Chen.

He wanted to unearth the secrets hidden within Wang Chen and therefore did not immediately strike a heavy blow.

But for Wang Chen, once he fell into the hands of this True Person, there would certainly be no chance of fluke!

At this life-or-death moment, Wang Chen was not panicked.

His mind was exceptionally calm, and the Ancient Taoist Stele that lay dormant within his Sea of Consciousness suddenly awoke from its silence, emitting thousands of beams of Taoist light.

“Break!”

An unyielding roar erupted from the depths of his heart; the powerful qi-blood within Wang Chen was instantly ignited, his bones cracked with intense vibration, while his muscles and skin burst forth with fierce power.

“Roar~”

A lifelike Great Majestic Heavenly Dragon appeared behind Wang Chen, baring its fangs and claws, raising its head towards the approaching True Person Ye, letting out an angry roar.

The golden eyes of the dragon dazzled with divine light!

True Person Ye, who had been certain of victory, was suddenly startled and instinctively withdrew his outstretched hand.

His Golden Core Domain had been shattered!

Under the pull of his aura, the Golden Core True Person felt an inexplicable palpitation, as if something bad was about to happen.

How could this be?

True Person Ye’s mind was momentarily bewildered.

Without the help of external forces like pills and magical treasures, a higher-tier Qi Cultivation stood a desperate fight against a primary-tier Purple Mansion.

But when a high-tier Purple Mansion encountered a primary-tier Golden Core, there was no chance of survival!

Because the Golden Core True Person’s domain completely crushed the Purple Mansion cultivator.

The best countermeasure for a Purple Mansion cultivator to contend with a Golden Core True Person was to gather strength from multiple people and use formations to fight.

Yet Wang Chen, alone, had just forced his way through his Golden Core Domain with his own power.

How could True Person Ye remain calm!

He was not one of those meathead Golden Cores that relied solely on pills for cultivation; his cultivation strength was not the strongest among his peers, but it was by no means weak either.

He had failed to subdue a mere Purple Mansion cultivator several times now.

If this matter were to spread, where would True Person Ye’s face be?

A glint of murderous intent suddenly appeared in his eyes.

And at this very moment, Wang Chen once again fled forward.

He had relied on the power of the Seventh Tier Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method, cultivated to the point of forcefully breaking the Golden Core Domain and escaping the predicament, not defeating True Person Ye.

If it came to a direct confrontation, defeat was certain.

Wang Chen was well aware that if he wanted to survive this crisis, he must resort to unexpected and risky maneuvers!

The direction of his escape was the very center of the Northern Evil Eye.

In his bid for survival, Wang Chen repeatedly cast the “Shrinking Ground into Inches” spell with all his might, maintaining a relentless pace.

His intention was to widen the gap between him and the formidable enemy.

But the closer he got to the center of the Evil Eye, the denser became the evil power of Yin Sha, and the thinner the spiritual power of heaven and earth.

The impact on his mana and spells increased!

Fortuitously, “Shrinking Ground into Inches” was applied to himself, not cast extrinsically like ordinary spells, so the adverse effects were comparatively less.

Most importantly, since Wang Chen possessed the Undying Body of Vajra and was guarded by the Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net, he completely isolated the Yin Sha evil power from himself, making each use of the spell successful.

True Person Ye, of course, could not tolerate Wang Chen slipping away under his watch; after his Dharma Domain failed to suppress, he quickly initiated pursuit.

This Golden Core True Person originally wanted to fly through the air, only to find his speed was less than half the usual.

With no other choice, True Person Ye was forced to mimic Wang Chen by using his own movement technique in pursuit.

His evasion skill was naturally stronger than Wang Chen’s “Shrinking Ground into Inches”—”Inches Apart, Worlds Away”!

This technique, when cultivated to the highest level, allowed one to cross a thousand miles in a single step and was a superior method amongst the Golden Core tier.

True Person Ye had not yet mastered “Inches Apart, Worlds Away” to such an extent, but under normal circumstances, he could easily catch up even if he let Wang Chen run for the time it takes an incense stick to burn.

The problem was that this place was the lowest level of Yongle Immortal City, an environment even more adverse than a Demon Den and the land of Yin Sha.

The surrounding space was saturated with a thick and profound Yin Sha evil power. Even someone as strong as True Person Ye couldn’t utilize a trace of the spiritual power of heaven and earth, relying only on his own Golden Core mana to cast spells.

The effectiveness was greatly diminished.

Furthermore, True Person Ye had to allocate some mana to fend off the invasion of Yin Sha evil power.

As a result, he did not catch up with Wang Chen immediately!

Not that it mattered, in terms of the endurance of Qi-Blood and the solidity of mana, Qi Cultivators couldn’t even come close to Golden Core True Persons.

True Person Ye was confident that Wang Chen could not escape from the palm of his hand.

But he soon realized something was amiss.

The evil power of Yin Sha in the surrounding space became increasingly intense, nearly solidifying, yet Wang Chen’s speed of escape did not slow down in the slightest, as if unaffected.

This discovery ignited an even fiercer greed in True Person Ye’s heart.

There was undoubtedly a grand secret or some kind of treasure on Wang Chen, and facts proved his judgment was not wrong.

“Stop!”

This Golden Core True Person immediately offered up a bronze bell, uttering true words that aimed directly at Wang Chen.

The bronze bell spun a few times in the air, quickly growing tenfold in size and emitting a dazzling, blinding golden light.

Under the illumination of the golden light, the thick Yin Sha evil power was instantly dispersed.

A powerful force of attraction fell towards Wang Chen!

This bronze bell was True Person Ye’s lifebound magic treasure, possessing both offensive and defensive capabilities, with profound divine powers contained within. If it had not been for the special environment of the Yin Sha Lands, he would not have easily brought it out.

And although Wang Chen was desperately fleeing, he did not forget to keep an eye on the formidable enemy behind him.

Upon seeing True Person Ye offering up his lifebound magic treasure, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately threw out the True Form Chart of the Mystical Mirage Dragon!

Logically, magic treasure should be met with magic treasure, and it would have been proper for Wang Chen to use the Dragon Abyss Sword to counter.

However, his cultivation level was an entire great realm behind his opponent, and his strength was worlds apart. Even with the power of a lifebound magic treasure being considerable, he could not withstand the strike of a Golden Core True Person.

Given its status not inferior to that of magic treasures, the True Form Chart of the Mystical Mirage Dragon naturally became Wang Chen’s best choice at that moment!
