40: Chapter 40 Ye Qingcheng Achieves Golden Core, Pointing Her Sword at the Flowing Cloud Sect!

Hehuan Sect, main hall plaza.

Although the smoke of battle had dispersed, the violent Spiritual Qi fluctuations from the fall of a Golden Core Cultivator still lingered in the air.

Wang Yang looked at the Magical Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts scattered across the ground; these were the legacy left behind by Xiao Changfeng and the thirty Law Enforcement Guards.

"System, time to work."

"Recycle everything!"

Hum—!

As Wang Yang's thought moved, familiar points of light rose up again.

Xiao Changfeng's tattered dharma robe, that Advanced Spiritual Artifact flame giant sword sliced into two, thirty sets of standard black armor, and dozens of bulging Storage Pouches all transformed into the purest stream of points.

[Ding! Recycling command confirmed!]

[Recycled Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator (Xiao Changfeng) and full set of belongings: 25,000 points!]

[Recycled Foundation Establishment Stage Law Enforcement Guards x 30 and equipment: 15,000 points!]

[Current points]: 16,000 (original remainder) + 40,000 = 56,000 points!

"Fifty-six thousand..."

Wang Yang looked at the enormous figure on the panel he had never seen before, his heart skipping a beat.

Is this the so-called "gold belt from murder and arson"?

The ancients did not deceive me!

"With this money, Qingcheng's Core Formation will be no problem!"

Wang Yang took a deep breath and turned to look at his three wives behind him, whose eyes were still burning despite having just experienced a great battle.

"Let's go!"

"To [Xianshi Pavilion]!"

"Today, your husband will treat you to a real 'Immortal Ascension Feast'!"

...

Xianshi Pavilion, top-floor Supreme private room.

This place is usually not open; it can only be unlocked when the points spent on a single meal reach a certain level.

At this moment, only one dish was placed on that huge agarwood round table.

It was a huge purple-gold alms bowl containing a soup as clear and translucent as amber. Within the soup, nine faint phantoms of Dragons were swimming, emitting an exotic fragrance that could prolong one's life just by smelling it.

[nine-turn golden core feast]

Price: 20,000 points.

Effect: Contains the power of heaven and earth creation, designed specifically for the Breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage. After consumption, it can greatly purify spiritual power, provide insight into the Golden Core Dao, and increase the success rate of Core Formation to 100% (for those at the False Core Realm). For those not at the False Core Realm, it can cleanse the marrow and improve Aptitude.

"Twenty thousand points for one dish, so damn extravagant."

Although Wang Yang felt a bit of heartache, seeing Ye Qingcheng's longing eyes, he immediately felt it was worth it.

"Qingcheng, this half pot is for you."

"Qingge, Xiao Wan, you two drink the remaining soup."

Seeing Xiao Wan's resentful eyes, Wang Yang felt helpless!

"Xiao Wan, it's not that Revered Master is biased; this is spiritual food specifically for Core Formation, it cannot be wasted!"

The three women naturally understood Wang Yang's painstaking efforts.

Ye Qingcheng looked at Wang Yang affectionately, said nothing more, picked up the bowl of soup that seemed to have condensed the essence of the sun and moon, and drank it in one gulp.

Boom!

The soup entered her stomach and instantly turned into a rolling heat current, rushing toward her limbs and bones.

"So hot..."

Ye Qingcheng let out a soft moan, her Face instantly flushed, and the False Core within her body began to spin wildly. That was the sign of the imminent shattering of the core to form an infant... oh no, the sign of condensing a True Golden Core!

"Let's go! Back to the room!"

Wang Yang picked up the scorching hot Ye Qingcheng and said to the two women behind him:

"You two also go back to your rooms to refine the medicinal power!"

"Tonight, our Hehuan Sect will have a great joyous event!"

...

Inside the Revered Master bedroom, the spring scenery was boundless, and the Spiritual Qi was abundant.

That night, Wang Yang did not just focus on enjoyment as usual.

He operated the [Supreme Yin-Yang Creation Scripture], using himself as a "Cauldron" to fully comb through the violent medicinal power in Ye Qingcheng's body, guiding her to break through that final hurdle.

Yin and Yang intersected, Dragon and Phoenix sang in harmony.

Time passed minute by minute.

Finally, at the moment of dawn.

Dong—!

A sound of Dao, like a great bell, rang out inside the main peak of the Hehuan Sect and then spread throughout a hundred miles.

Immediately after.

Rumble—!

A brilliant golden beam of light shot up from the Revered Master bedroom, directly piercing through the clouds!

The sky, which had just brightened, instantly dimmed.

And within that beam of light, a round, flawless "Golden Core" phantom emitting a hundred zhang of golden light slowly rose, like a newly born scorching sun, illuminating all directions!

Around that Golden Core, there was even an ocean transformed by Taiyin True Water, supporting it.

A bright moon rising over the sea!

Golden Core phenomenon!

Ye Qingcheng, officially stepped into the Golden Core Early Stage (Golden Core Level 1)!

At the same time, the System notification sound flooded the screen.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host! Dao Companion Ye Qingcheng has broken through to the Golden Core Stage!]

[Triggered Domain expansion mechanism!]

[Current Domain radius: 21.04 km + 1 km = 22.04 km!]

Wang Yang looked at the peerless beauty in his arms whose aura had become unfathomable and whose skin was as delicate as a newborn baby's. He was so tired he didn't want to move a finger, but his heart was filled with joy.

"Golden Core wife... hehe, it will be even more of a Face-saver to bring her out in the future."

And in the room next door, sounds of Breakthroughs also came one after another.

Su Qingge, relying on the soup base of the [nine-turn golden core feast] and the accumulation of many days with Wang Yang, rushed to Foundation Establishment Level 9 (Foundation Establishment Great Perfection) in one go!

She was only one step away from the False Core!

Even Lin Xiaowan, who had the worst Aptitude, was forced to break through to Foundation Establishment Level 5 (Foundation Establishment Middle Stage) under the tempering of the medicinal power and the Origin previously left by Wang Yang!

Although she was still a "weakling" compared to the two Revered Master-wives, she could be considered a Genius in the small Sects outside.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host! Dao Companions Su Qingge and Lin Xiaowan have broken through one after another!]

[Triggered Domain expansion mechanism!]

[Current Domain radius: 22.04 km + 2 km = 24.04 km!]

...

Three days later.

In front of the Hehuan Sect mountain gate.

Three peerless women were ready to set off.

Leading them was a woman in a white dress, carrying the [liuxi sword], her aura restrained and profound, like a deep pool that could not be seen to the bottom.

It was Ye Qingcheng, who had just been promoted to a Golden Core powerhouse.

On the left, Su Qingge was in green clothes like a lotus, holding the Liuguang Zither, and wearing the [rainbow feather robe], a murderous aura permeating her coldness.

On the right, Lin Xiaowan was in a tight-fitting outfit, holding the crackling [purple lightning azure frost sword], her Face full of excitement, eager to try.

Wang Yang stood on the steps, looking at these three female generals about to go on an expedition, just like looking at his wives about to travel far.

He took out three exquisite jade bottles from his arms and handed them to the three people respectively.

"This is the final trump card I prepared for you — [divine sense possession pill]."

Wang Yang exhorted with a serious expression:

"Although Qingcheng is already at the Golden Core Stage, it is more than enough to beat that Zhao Liuyun."

"But even when a lion hunts a rabbit, it uses its full strength. No one knows if the Liuyun Sect still has any insidious traps."

"If you encounter irresistible danger, swallow this pill immediately."

"My Divine Thought will instantly descend and take over your bodies."

"At that time..." a trace of arrogance flashed in Wang Yang's eyes, "Even if a True Immortal comes, I can still bring you out!"

(Cost: 5,000 x 3 = 15,000 points. Remaining points: 21,000.)

Hearing this, the three women felt infinite warmth in their hearts.

"Husband, rest assured!"

Ye Qingcheng held the jade bottle tightly, her beautiful eyes full of determination:

"This time, I will definitely capture Zhao Liuyun alive!"

"Make him kneel in front of the mountain gate and kowtow to Husband!"

"Why do I need him? Just kill him directly, and then disband the Liuyun Sect!" Wang Yang said helplessly.

"Qingcheng understands! Set off!"

Following Ye Qingcheng's order.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three beams of light shot into the sky.

In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the horizon.

Target: Liuyun Sect, one hundred kilometers away!

Wang Yang stood in place, watching the direction they left, waving his cattail fan, the corners of his mouth slightly raised:

"Zhao Liuyun, oh Zhao Liuyun."

"Your nightmare has arrived."

"I hope your bones can be a bit harder than Xiao Changfeng's."
