Chapter 145 Golden Elixir Debut

Boundless Forest, cloudless for ten thousand miles, vast as the sea.

Six or seven years after reaching the Golden Core stage, Chen Li once again stepped into the vast world of the Boundless Forest.

Over these years, he had completely converted his Golden Core cultivation into Golden Core combat power!

From the first time he entered the Boundless Forest at the Fourth Layer of Qi Refining to now entering it again at the Early Stage Golden Core, his state of mind was completely different!

From being cautious to now being able to act more freely, his ability to protect himself had strengthened significantly!

This time, he was setting out to retrieve the life spirit flower. Chen Li planned to visit this Place of Opportunity first. It required going ten thousand miles deep, reaching the area where Red Gold active.

There was no need to bring his family this time; it was too deep. Without Golden Core cultivation, it would be hard to escape. If he encountered danger, he could just flee on his own and focus entirely on running.

He had now also cultivated the Wind Shadow Evasion Technique to Major Achievement.

He pulled up the information about the life spirit flower in his Sea of Consciousness.

[1. Three-thousand-year-old life spirit flower]

Location: [Location information for the life spirit flower has been injected; map guidance mode can be enabled]

Danger: [Boundless Forest Yao Beasts on the way] [Sixth-level Demon Beast guarding nearby]

Restriction: None

Recommended number of people: 1

A Sixth-level Demon Beast is guarding it. He wondered if he could trick it; taking it secretly would be the best outcome. He would see when the time came!

After going a thousand kilometers deep, Chen Li used his light escape to fly. He released his thirty-mile Divine Sense for scouting during the flight and brought along the Three-Flower Cat; he always brought the kitten when going out.

According to records, the life spirit flower can generate Spiritual Qi, making it comparable to a living Spiritual Vein.

The older the life spirit flower, the purer and more refined the Spiritual Qi it releases. Three thousand years is equivalent to a Golden Core-level Spiritual Vein.

He wondered if its growth period could be increased to ten thousand years; he didn't know what level of Spiritual Vein the released Spiritual Qi would reach then!

If he could obtain one and place it on Black Magpie Mountain, it would be like Black Magpie Mountain having its own Spiritual Vein.

Furthermore, in the future, he wouldn't just need to pop pills to advance his Golden Core cultivation. In the Golden Core stage, one couldn't rely solely on pills to increase cultivation; multiple paths had to be pursued simultaneously to advance quickly.

Chen Li hurried along, basically ignoring those Fourth and Fifth-level Demonic Beast. The location in his Sea of Consciousness grew closer, and soon he was eight thousand miles deep, at which point he began to fly slowly.

Flying with his light escape, more and more Fifth-level Demonic Beast appeared as he neared the ten-thousand-mile mark. He could vaguely sense the aura of Sixth-level Demon Beast, so Chen Li began to restrain his breath.

Soon, Chen Li successfully made his way to within a hundred miles of the life spirit flower. He could see many Yao Beast gathered there, primarily Fourth and Fifth-level Demonic Beast, and he could also feel a clear increase in the concentration of Spiritual Qi.

Chen Li continued his disguise and slowly crept closer. Thirty miles away, he stopped because he sensed a fifth-rank Defensive Formation Array!

A Defensive Formation Array?

Why would such a thing appear here with Yao Beast?

Chen Li was puzzled. It was strange; were these still the Yao Beast he knew?

Moreover, this Formation could release the Spiritual Qi of the life spirit flower; they clearly knew how to use Formations!

Chen Li felt it was a bit tricky because he sensed a Sixth-level Demon Beast inside the Formation, absorbing Spiritual Qi right next to the life spirit flower.

Damn it! Yao Beast have learned to use Formations!

Yao Beast above the sixth level have developed a demonic beast inner core, can send messages, and will flee if they sense something is wrong; their intelligence is getting higher and higher.

Generally speaking, one must master a higher-level Formation to easily break a lower-level Formation. Now, dealing with the same rank would take some time. It was like solving a problem; a high schooler could instantly solve an elementary school problem, but one at the same level required thought to solve.

The lower the rank, the easier it is to crack!

However, before Chen Li could crack it, another Sixth-level Demon Beast flew over. It seemed to say something in the beast language, but Chen Li didn't hear it.

Then the old Sixth-level Demon Beast flew away, taking the set-up Formation with it, and the new Sixth-level Demon Beast took over.

Furthermore, this old Sixth-level Demon Beast withdrew with the nearby Fourth and Fifth-level Yao Beast of the same tribe.

Chen Li had originally wanted to go up and crack it, but he hadn't expected such a twist.

What dumbfounded Chen Li was that this Yao Beast didn't set up a Formation; instead, the tribe of Fourth and Fifth-level Yao Beast it brought were stationed directly within five miles of the life spirit flower.

There were nearly three hundred Fourth and Fifth-level Demonic Beast!

This Sixth-level Demon Beast was at the center with the life spirit flower, surrounded by these Fourth and Fifth-level Yao Beast that began to spread out in layers. The density was extremely high, forming a protected zone.

Chen Li discovered that this tribe of Yao Beast were Fire Wolf Beasts. The one that had just flown away was a Red Lion Demon, which should be the same tribe type as Red Gold.

Looking at this heavily surrounded Sixth-level Demon Beast, Chen Li found it difficult to sneak over and could only observe further.

He began to search the vicinity and found that there were no other Sixth-level Demon Beast auras within thirty miles. There was one fifty miles away and another a hundred miles away.

Discovering there were no Seventh-level Demon Beast within a two-hundred-mile radius, he knew what to do.

Chen Li didn't know how often these Yao Beast rotated. Fearing it would take too long or that the next rotating Yao Beast would be the same, he decided to face it head-on and resolve the battle quickly!

That Sixth-level Demon Beast fifty miles away should be able to rush over in about twenty breaths at its top speed.

He would try to kill this Sixth-level Demon Beast within fifteen breaths, then dig up this life spirit flower and flee immediately.

He pulled out over eighty fifth-rank Thunder Explosion Talisman he had bought, along with over two hundred fourth-rank shocking explosion talismans, starting to reveal his arsenal.

He intended to use these Talisman and detonate them all at once.

After the resulting chaos, he would use the Blood Shadow Clone Method to manifest ten figures to close in on this Sixth-level Demon Beast. Once close, he would directly unleash his ultimate move, Burial Fire!

This was his Golden Core debut; he decided to finish it quickly and also test the power of Burial Fire!

Having cultivated for so long, today was the day to see the results.

After approaching within a ten-mile radius, Chen Li slipped in another five miles. Any further, and the high density of Yao Beast would make him easy to discover.

Chen Li decided to take action!

He simultaneously activated the Dharma Art for these three hundred-plus Talisman, quickly used the Wind Shadow Evasion Technique to fly in another mile, and then scattered the Talisman within a few miles like scattering flowers.

Boom—Boom—Boom—

Nearly three hundred Talisman detonated simultaneously. The massive noise kicked up clouds of dust. On the spot, Fourth-level Demonic Beast were blown apart, and some Fifth-level Demonic Beast were knocked to the ground. The startled roars of the Yao Beast rose and fell across the scene.

The scene was in complete chaos, and the Sixth-level Fire Wolf Beast that had been absorbing Spiritual Qi immediately woke up in shock.

This Sixth-level Demon Beast instantly locked onto the ten Blood Demon Figure flying toward it.

Right after using those three hundred Talisman, Chen Li immediately manifested the Blood Demon Figure!

At this moment, the Sixth-level Demon Beast roared and emitted a sound wave, likely to signal other Yao Beast.

Seeing these ten Blood Demon Figure coming at it from all directions, it spat out Wolf Fire from its mouth toward one direction.

The fierce flames, carrying intense heat, swept toward one direction to swallow the blood shadows.

Soon, this one blood shadow was consumed, but the other nine figures continued to fly toward it. The Sixth-level Demon Beast spat out five more blasts of Wolf Fire.

Now only four blood shadows remained on the field. Chen Li was currently in one of them; as long as there were at least two blood shadows, he could teleport to any one of them.

Now less than a mile away, the Sixth-level Demon Beast charged up again and spat out four blasts of Wolf Fire. Seeing the Wolf Fire approaching, before it could hit his true body, Chen Li performed a second manifestation, splitting into another ten figures, and hid within one of them again!

Chen Li had now closed in to within a few hundred meters. Seeing another ten figures flying at it, the Sixth-level Fire Wolf Beast unleashed its ultimate move, releasing Wolf Fire in a circle around itself to form a fire-wall defensive shield.

Seeing the fire-wall defensive shield, Chen Li's mind moved, and ten golden thunder bamboo flying sword flew out from his body. The ten golden thunder bamboo flying sword merged into one and stabbed fiercely at a corner of the fire wall!

The moment the Flying Sword collided with the fire wall, several cracks instantly shattered in that corner. The Sixth-level Demon Beast struggled to maintain the fire wall, waiting for other Sixth-level Demon Beast to arrive.

Chen Li also knew what the Sixth-level Demon Beast was thinking. Reaching the fire wall, he directly unleashed Burial Fire toward the cracks!

Seeing the fire darting inside the fire wall, the Sixth-level Demon Beast tried to rely on its own tough Physical Body to resist it!

However, the moment the fire touched its Physical Body, it instantly burst into flames!

The Sixth-level Demon Beast let out a tragic howl!

The fire wall could no longer be maintained. The merged sword of the ten golden thunder bamboo flying sword directly shattered the fire wall and pinned the Sixth-level Demon Beast to the ground, killing it!

This Sixth-level Fire Wolf Beast was dead!

Chen Li cut off the Burial Fire, quickly took the demonic beast inner core, collected the beast's corpse, and then dug up the life spirit flower nearby.

With a single Dharma Art, he collected the corpses of the Fourth and Fifth-level Demonic Beast that had been killed in the explosion into his Storage Pouch.

At this moment, Chen Li's Divine Sense detected a Sixth-level Demon Beast rushing over frantically from ten miles away, with many more Yao Beast auras appearing thirty miles away. He immediately exerted the Wind Shadow Evasion Technique to its full extent from where he stood, leaping toward the north with all his might, leaving only an afterimage behind.

Just then, a gust of wind blew from south to north, making the afterimage even faster. It merged into the wind and soon disappeared over the horizon.

This battle was faster than expected. The whole sequence was as smooth as flowing water, resolving the fight in about seven breaths; he had still underestimated his own Divine Ability.
