Chapter 67: The Bearing of an Immortal! Even the Ancestors are Realists

Qi as vast and mighty as the ocean.

Lu Jin and the others stared wide-eyed at Qing Bai Er She.

Although Lu Jin and Lv Ci had felt it before.

It was different from this intuitive feeling right now.

Fang Dongtian stared with wide eyes, a look of anxiety on his face.

The few juniors naturally dared not make a sound; they looked at Qing Bai Er She, then at Lin Xuan standing not far away.

"Grandmaster, no need to worry; there really is no danger, I can feel it."

As he spoke, Lin Xuan raised his hand under the gaze of everyone.

He could feel a faint, tingling, peculiar sensation.

While carrying a trace of destructive power, it also held infinite vitality.

Feeling this power, Lin Xuan seemed to have an epiphany and suddenly tilted his head back, opening his mouth slightly.

Orange-red pill fire was exhaled by him, like orange-red rosy clouds.

But no one focused their attention on these orange-red rosy clouds; instead, their eyes were fixed straight on a round orb within the glow.

The orb could not be seen clearly, as it was covered by a layer of grey, hazy mist.

Furthermore, within the orange-red glow, this small orb looked somewhat illusory.

It was as if it did not truly exist.

"Is this... an Inner Core?"

Fang Dongtian widened his eyes and muttered.

Although he knew Lin Xuan had successfully cultivated an Inner Core, this was truly the first time he had seen what an Inner Core looked like with his own eyes.

Hearing Fang Dongtian's words, Zhou Meng, Lu Jin, and Lv Ci were all startled, their eyes fixed intently on the Inner Core within the glow.

An Inner Core that could only be cultivated by legendary beings like Earth Immortals?

"Is there really someone who can cultivate it?"

Zhou Meng stared, his eyes full of disbelief.

Only the other few juniors remained.

Wang Ye had a blank expression.

He certainly knew what an Inner Core was.

Whether in novels or in the classics he had seen on Wudang Mountain, they were all filled with descriptions of Inner Cores.

But wasn't this thing just made up?

Zhang Lingyu stared blankly.

Feng Shayan's expression was exactly the same as Zhang Lingyu's.

Lu Linglong and her brother watched with wide eyes.

This was an Inner Core, after all.

Truly an eye-opener.

Qing Bai Er She turned their heads, looked at the Inner Core in the glow, and swallowed in unison.

With the appearance of the Inner Core, they felt a strong yearning for it.

It was not that they had developed any greed.

Rather, they could feel that they too needed to walk this path to achieve the true Dao.

To become a true Demon Immortal existence.

Lin Xuan spitting out the Inner Core was not for the sake of showing it to others.

It was a feeling.

This cloud, or rather this cyan-green thunder, had not come for him, but for this Inner Core.

Sure enough, after the Inner Core left his body, the rotation speed of the vortex cloud in the sky increased.

Cyan-green light flickered in and out as the cloud mass rotated.

The cloud mass was accumulating some kind of power.

Lin Xuan's heart stirred; the Inner Core, which had been hovering three or four meters above the ground, gave a jolt and shot straight toward the sky.

Carrying the orange-red glow, it looked as if a massive canopy had unfolded.

Boom!

Another peal of thunder.

As the thunder sounded, everyone's vision was filled with a blinding cyan-green light.

"My eyes!"

Some who had been looking up at the sky were blinded, covering their eyes with their hands and wailing.

This time, as the thunder rang out, the cyan-green lightning streaked across the cloud mass and collided directly with the Inner Core shooting toward the sky.

Lin Xuan, looking up at the sky, felt a stir in his heart; he could see it clearly.

The lightning was blocked by the layer of grey mist on the outside of the Inner Core, which looked very thin.

As the two forces wrestled, the power of the lightning dissipated rapidly.

The final stage of the pill fire smelting, which would have originally taken some time, was completed in an instant under the infusion of the lightning's power.

This blinding cyan-green lightning came and went quickly.

This strike seemed to have gathered all its power.

After this mass of thunder fell, the vortex cloud that had gathered together quickly dispersed.

Before long, it turned into irregular clouds, which drifted away into the distance with the wind in the sky.

Before long, the sunlight that had been blocked was once again spilling into Baiyun Guan.

The inner core that had shot straight into the sky had returned, and as Lin Xuan opened his mouth, the inner core re-entered his abdomen, disappearing along with the pill fire.

Feeling the peculiar power of thunder recorded within the inner core, Lin Xuan had a realization.

Wood-attribute thunder.

Although the power of that bolt of lightning just now was astonishing, it had not undergone Wood Element Smelting.

It had merely completed the finishing touches of the pill fire smelting.

Yet even so, Lin Xuan could feel his mind clear and bright, his thoughts as sharp as crystal wiped clean of dust.

Especially the power of that thunder recorded within the Golden Core.

It was stronger and more peculiar than the Palm Thunder he had created himself.

Not only was the power of destruction greater, but it also possessed a stronger life force.

It really was just like the legendary Yimu Divine Thunder.

But he had only just formed such a thought, and the Yimu Divine Thunder was already directly in his hands?

A strange feeling welled up in Lin Xuan's heart.

Although he was already used to having good luck, even Lin Xuan was slightly unaccustomed to the current situation.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Xuan shook his head slightly and withdrew his focus.

Regardless, this was a great thing.

Not only was the Fire Element of the pill fire smelting perfected, but the power of Wood Element Smelting had also been obtained directly.

Next, there was no need to think about anything; he could just continue directly.

Perhaps when the Wood Element was perfected, the power for the next smelting would also suddenly appear.

Thinking of this, Lin Xuan smiled.

"Senior Brother!"

"Benefactor!"

As the voices rang out, Lin Xuan turned his head to look in the direction the sounds came from.

Then, he saw Fang Dongtian and the others, as well as Qing Bai Er She, staring at him with wide eyes.

"What is wrong with me?"

Lin Xuan felt a bit strange; he looked down and let out a soft sound of surprise.

Wisps of white Qi were unconsciously circling his body, like white ribbons, drifting slightly.

"Senior Brother, have you transcended the tribulation and become an Immortal?"

Lu Linglong stared with wide eyes.

"Become an Immortal, what?"

Hearing this, Lin Xuan felt helpless for a moment.

He drew the white Qi lingering outside his body back into himself.

"It was probably just a small breakthrough, so I didn't restrain my Qi."

Lin Xuan said.

But the others clearly did not believe this.

Because the scene just now was too similar.

The ancestors worshipped by various sects all had such cloud-like ribbons on them.

Before, they had wondered why such things were painted, guessing they were just decorations.

But now that they saw it, it might just be realistic.

This must be some kind of symbol.

However, in this current era, there were too few records of such things.

"Are you really alright?"

Fang Dongtian steadied his mind and asked.

"Didn't I say, this has no ill effects on me, and I even gained some benefits."

As he spoke, Lin Xuan raised his finger, and a beam of cyan-green electric light lit up at his fingertip.

Looking at this cyan-green electric light, everyone thought of the terrifying thunder they had just seen, which was also this color.

"Wood-attribute thunder technique, hmm, it can be called Yimu Divine Thunder."

Lin Xuan looked at the electric light on his fingertip and nodded.

"As for its power."

Lin Xuan thought for a moment, looked up and scanned the area, turned his gaze to Lv Ci, and raised his hand to strike out the cyan-green thunder light in his hand, targeting none other than Lv Ci.
