8: Men and women should not touch each other! Senior sister, please respect yourself!

Chen Yi looked at the Golden Core in his hand, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

After returning to his room, he consumed the Golden Core.

As the saying goes, with a Golden Core consumed, my destiny is mine to control, not heaven's!

The Golden Core is a threshold on the cultivation path; once one advances to the Golden Core Realm, not only does their cultivation strength greatly increase, but their Lifespan also improves!

A Golden Core Realm cultivation means a Lifespan of at least… five hundred years!

Of course, Chen Yi consuming a Golden Core does not mean he can immediately advance to Golden Core; he still needs some time to refine it!

But undeniably, after the Golden Core entered his abdomen, he found that his cultivation speed had greatly accelerated; it was already fast before, but now it was as if a rocket booster had been installed, and his True Qi began to surge upwards.

He instantly broke through the Qi Refining Realm and reached the True Essence Realm.

And in the True Essence Realm, he soared all the way.

A night passed.

He directly Advanced to True Essence Great Perfection.

He was only a little short of the Spirit Sea Realm.

Moreover, at his current speed, he could completely refine this Golden Core into his own cultivation within ten days.

Chen Yi's mood couldn't help but feel a little excited.

He silently recited 'A heart like ice, calm even when the sky falls' several times before calming down.

In the morning.

Luo Qinghuang went to Wuqing Peak as usual to guide Chen Yi in his cultivation.

Then she noticed something was off.

How did he become more handsome?

He looked better and better.

Yet his facial features hadn't changed much.

Wait, something's not right.

Luo Qinghuang widened her eyes, “You Advanced to the True Essence Realm?! And even True Essence Great Perfection? How did you do it?”

It usually takes ordinary Martial Artists several months to advance from the Qi Refining Realm to True Essence, even with top-tier bone structure. Even if Chen Yi had the Pure Yang Body, advancing to True Essence Great Perfection in just one night was simply too unbelievable.

Chen Yi had already thought of an excuse, and calmly said, “Yesterday, Senior Sister Yu Ling'er came to Wuqing Peak to spar with me. After sparring, I had some Comprehension Ability, and after cultivating for a night, I Advanced to True Essence Great Perfection.”

“An Epiphany?” Luo Qinghuang’s eyes flashed.

An Epiphany is a rare and unlooked-for Opportunity in the cultivation world.

A small Epiphany can allow one to quickly comprehend Martial Skills and improve cultivation, while a major Epiphany can even allow one to cross several Realms at once.

It is rumored that in ancient times, someone relied on an Epiphany to instantly advance and become a Great Emperor who suppressed an era.

However, even small Epiphanies are rare.

Such major Epiphanies have probably only occurred a few times in history.

“Mm, yes.”

Chen Yi nodded slightly.

Luo Qinghuang sighed with emotion, “I didn’t expect you to have such an Opportunity. But you said Ling'er came to spar with you… Heh, she was probably looking for trouble, wasn’t she?”

She had some understanding of Yu Ling'er's personality.

“It was alright.”

Chen Yi said, his impression of Yu Ling'er wasn't too bad.

“Alright, let's not talk about Ling'er for now. Let's begin today's cultivation. You've been cultivating the Nine Yang Divine Skill for some time. Today, I plan to teach you a Martial Skill. After all, no matter how profound your True Qi is, if you don't have a Martial Skill to assist it, it's difficult to fully unleash its power!

For a Martial Artist, a good Martial Skill can often play a decisive role!

Like Cultivation Techniques, Martial Skills are also divided into Elementary, Intermediate, Advanced, Top-tier, Supreme Law, and so on. What I'm about to teach you is a Top-tier Martial Skill.

Its name is… Golden Sun Sword Art!

It is a Sword Art of ultimate rigidity and Yang, complementing your Nine Yang Divine Skill perfectly! Oh, do you have a sword?” Luo Qinghuang asked, remembering something.

Chen Yi spread his hands, empty, and said, “Do I look like I have one?”

“Uh… It seems before you practice sword, you’ll need to find a sword first. Come with me to the Weapon Pavilion,” Luo Qinghuang said.

The Weapon Pavilion, like the Cultivation Technique Pavilion, as its name suggests, is a place where weapons are stored. However, unlike the Cultivation Technique Pavilion, the weapons that can be placed in the Weapon Pavilion are certainly not ordinary blades.

They are all Advanced weapons.

There are even Supreme artifacts!

Of course, such weapons are unruly and not something ordinary people can control. Besides requiring a certain level of cultivation, they also depend on Opportunity.

Inside the Weapon Pavilion.

All kinds of weapons were displayed.

Swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, staffs, whips, hammers…

Chen Yi looked around, his focus naturally on swords.

The sword, the king of all weapons!

Elegant! Romantic! Cool!

It is the first choice for many Martial Artists!

In the Weapon Pavilion, swords were also the most numerous!

All kinds of swords, some with sharp Sword Qi, some ancient and vast, some incomparably magnificent, some with sharp edges, some sinister and vicious…

Every sword had its own aura.

Chen Yi felt a bit dizzy from looking at them, unsure which one to choose.

“Senior Sister, do you have any suggestions?”

Chen Yi looked at Luo Qinghuang.

Luo Qinghuang said calmly, “Choose with your heart!”

“Um… Could you be more straightforward?”

“Pick whichever one looks pleasing to your eye.”

“Ah, is it that casual?”

“Otherwise? A sword is just a weapon. If it breaks, you can just replace it. There’s no need to spend too much effort on it.”

Luo Qinghuang said, then took out her own sword, a long ice-blue sword, like it was carved from ice crystals, emitting wisps of cold air.

She calmly said, “This sword of mine is called Ice Emperor! It's the third sword I've used! You're only choosing your first one, no need to be too conflicted.”

“Alright then.”

Chen Yi began to pick and choose.

Luo Qinghuang watched from the side, a little speechless.

I told you to choose casually, but not *that* casually!

Finally, Chen Yi pointed to a black sword. That sword looked unremarkable, its blade as wide as two palms.

This was, without a doubt, a heavy sword!

On the blade, two characters were engraved…

Great Strength!

Chen Yi: …………

Naming a sword Great Strength??

Are you kidding me!?

“This sword is forged from meteoric iron. Its blade is wide and weighs three thousand six hundred catties. Ordinary Martial Artists can barely even swing it! Let alone use it in combat! To become its master, one must either be a Golden Core Martial Artist, or…

A person with natural Divine Power!

Junior Brother, you should choose another one.” Luo Qinghuang reminded him.

But Chen Yi shook his head, walked to the sword, and grabbed the hilt, calmly saying, “Senior Sister, I forgot to tell you, I've had no other strengths since I was young, just a lot of strength!”

After speaking, he actually lifted this three thousand six hundred catty heavy sword above his head without using any True Qi!

Then he swung it twice, producing whistling wind sounds!

That sword, in his hand, felt as light as a feather!

Luo Qinghuang was surprised to see this, “What great strength?! Such Divine Power, it seems Junior Brother, you and this sword are a match made in heaven!”

“I think so too.”

Chen Yi smiled slightly, swinging the heavy sword.

Although the name of this Great Strength sword wasn't great.

But he was still very satisfied. With this sword, coupled with his Dragon Elephant Strength, a single forceful swing could probably blow up a small mountain!

After choosing the sword, the two returned to Wuqing Peak to continue their cultivation.

Luo Qinghuang eloquently explained the Golden Sun Sword Art.

She demonstrated it several times in front of Chen Yi.

However, Chen Yi was practicing sword for the first time and couldn't grasp the essentials.

Luo Qinghuang watched from the side, feeling a bit anxious. How did this Comprehension Ability lead to an Epiphany to True Essence Great Perfection overnight??

To teach Chen Yi, she personally took action.

She stepped forward, wrapped her arms around Chen Yi's waist, grabbed his hand, and prepared to teach him sword practice hand-in-hand, but saw Chen Yi, upon her touch, retreat two steps, and with a serious expression, said, “Senior Sister, men and women should not touch! Please mind your conduct!”
