Chapter 217: Huo Ming’s Worries, Rushing to Aid Xuan Xue_2

Just before the Xuandan Death Tribulation descended, Han Yi successfully reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

That was nine years ago.

But for I Ian Yi, he had established his foundation at the age of fifty. Now, he is sixty-six, making it a total of sixteen years, seven of which were spent in the Mirage Immortal World.

That means, he entered the Golden Core Stage after nine years in the Yu Heng World, equalling the current owner of the White Jade Tower, the dominant True Lord who forged a First-Class Immortal Foundation.

However.

The speed of a cultivator, who has forged their Spirit Sea into the First-Class Immortal Foundation during the Foundation Establishment stage, is much faster than a cultivator with a Divine Soul First-Class Immortal Foundation. This is because the Golden Core primarily involves the Spirit Sea. However, during the Golden Core stage, a cultivator with a Divine Soul First-Class Immortal Foundation will have the upper hand.

Han Yi gathered his thoughts, thanked Wo Changyun, and then ascended into the sky. His spiritual consciousness, which has expanded to twenty kilometers moved towards the foggy Xuandan Peak. Now that he’s exited his seclusion, he naturally needed to find Yuan Shun for instructions.

However.

Much to his surprise, a tremendous resistance deflected Han Yi’s spiritual consciousness back, even causing a counter-shock that made Han Yi’s Divine Soul feel oppressed.

Xuandan Peak remained as tranquil as before, without any other reaction.

A look of puzzlement flashed across Han Yi’s eyes. His spiritual consciousness probe was mainly to inform Yuan Shun, but there had been no response so far. It appeared that Yuan Shun was either not in Xuandan Peak or in deep seclusion.

After some thought, Han Yi took a few steps and arrived at Zhu Rong Peak.

Unable to see Yuan Shun, the next person he wanted to find naturally was Huo Ming at Zhu Rong Peak.

Qin Wuxian oversaw the Profound Immortal Pavilion in Qian Du and occasionally had other missions. Si Hongxue rotated in the Xuandan blood subsidiary sect, was currently severely injured due to a dark plot, and Zhuge Wu You took Shen Ping and Lian Tingxi to rush to the subsidiary sect.

At present, m the whole Xuandan Sect, only one remained in the Golden Core Stage, and that was Huo Ming.

At the top of the tower in the depths of Zhu Rong Palace, Huo Ming abruptly opened his eyes.

A divine idea was conveyed.

“Elder Huo Ming, it’s me, Han Yi.”

As Huo Ming sat cross-legged, with a slight wave of his hand, the door to the top of the tower opened, and Han Yi stepped in.

“You… have you broken through to the Golden Core?”

“Just… umm, nine years, nine years.”

After Huo Ming’s initial stupefaction, he quickly realized that nine years earlier, Han Yi precisely established his foundation in his place. At that time Huo Ming was protecting him. Halfway through Han Yi’s breakthrough, Yuan Shun appeared, looking serious, which made him rather nervous.

Breaking through to Golden Core in nine years definitely implied a First-Class Immortal Foundation. Furthermore, only those with the strongest First-Class Immortal Foundation potential could achieve this.

Huo Ming had a guess in his heart. It seemed that Yuan Shun was so nervous back then because he should have sensed that Han Yi was building a First-Class Immortal Foundation. And later, unknown to all, he must have used a certain method to hide the anomaly of Han Yi’s Immortal Foundation, leading everyone to think that Han Yi was merely an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator.

“What a… monster.”

Huo Ming looked at Han Yi as if looking at a freak, but Han Yi’s breakthrough to Golden Core would bring about powerful strength to the sect.

The Xuandan Death Tribulation had just passed nine years. Even though the sect had issued numerous policies and allocated many resources, it was a miraculous stroke of luck for Shen Ping, Lian Tingxi, and Han Yi to achieve breakthroughs within this short period.

Among them, Shen Ping and Lian Tingxi were cultivators who were already in the late stage of Qi Cultivation, close to the peak. Their breakthroughs were within the plan, whereas Han Yi’s breakthrough was entirely an unexpected joy.

Moreover.

Though the sect’s Foundation Establishment cultivators had dramatically increased over these nine years, ninety-nine percent of them were still at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. It would still take an extended period before they reached the Foundation Establishment Peak and gained the strength for building the Golden Core.

Simply put, more than half of the prospective Golden Core candidates had already been exhausted. As per the sect’s senior calculations, in the next decade, at most three Foundation Establishment cultivators at the peak stage could reach the Golden Core Stage. The next batch of cultivators with the potential of building the Golden Core would have to wait until thirty years later.

In between, there would be a twenty-year gap.

This gap also represents the hefty price paid by the sect for the significant loss of cultivators in the middle and late stages of Foundation Building in the Xuandan Death Tribulation.

“Right, from now on, there’s no need to call me Elder anymore. Since you have broken through to the Golden Core, we should use the title of brothers among us. Just call me Brother Huo Ming.”

Han Yi did not refuse either.

“Brother Huo Ming, has the Sect Leader left?”

Huo Ming shook his head.

“I’m not sure.”

“The Sect Leader did leave over a year ago and was severely injured. But he should have recovered half a year ago.”

“After he had recovered, we lost contact with him. Xuandan Peak was sealed off; even we lack knowledge of his condition, whether he had a new understanding and went into seclusion, or he had left.”

“His whereabouts have always been like this; there’s no need to worry about him.”

“Also, before departing, Zhuge Brother originally intended to seek instructions from the Sect Leader. However, he discovered that he couldn’t get in touch, so he had to take Shen Ping and Lian Tingxi and rush to the Xuandan blood subsidiary sect.”

“By the way, are you aware of what happened in the Xuandan blood subsidiary sect?”

Han Yi nodded.

In Huo Ming’s eyes, a fire was leaping, red as the Abyssal Fire.

“But.”

“Now that 1 am the only one in the sect who has reached the Golden Core, if a cultivator does attack, even though the Sect Leader has left us an emergency solution, it would still put us under great pressure.”

“Now that you have broken through, it’s excellent. Stay here and guard the sect with me.”

With a serious expression on his face, Huo Ming extended his invitation, and Han Yi naturally wouldn’t refuse and was about to accept.

However.

Just at this moment.

A divine thought entered the minds of the two.

It was Yuan Shun.

“Huo Ming, there’s no need to worry about the sect. I am holding the fort, everything will be fine..”
