Chapter 61 The Fall of a Golden Core Master

Chapter Sixty-One: The Fall of a Golden Core Master

"Zhuo Yang, come out!"

Yuan Chen roared angrily, overwhelmed by loneliness and fear.

"Okay!"

A soft sound came from behind, startling Yuan Chen so much that he turned around abruptly and thrust out his sword. Instantly, a traditional Chinese ink painting appeared, seemingly coming to life in the thick fog.

Unfortunately, he missed.

"What the hell is this broken formation?!" Yuan Chen was furious and roared to the sky.

Anyone trapped at night in a place surrounded by thick fog with visibility less than two meters would feel immense despair and fear.

Even for cultivators, knowing the enemy is nearby but unable to find them, and constantly on guard against sneak attacks, the tension and excitement are so intense that no one can sustain it for long; collapse is only a matter of time.

Zhuo Yang stood atop a large tree, cradling the injured Xiao Diao in his arms. His eyes were slightly red as he used his demonic pupils to pierce through the mist, looking down at Yuan Chen, who was on the verge of madness, on a patch of open grass.

"Even if ten more Golden Core stage experts came, they wouldn't be able to break through the illusion array I've set up!" With a cold snort, Zhuo Yang silently recited the incantation to activate the array.

The thick fog began to move, rolling and rolling.

Yuan Chen was immediately startled. He hurriedly calmed himself down and prepared to fight with all his might.

The thick fog on the ground seemed to have thinned considerably, and visibility had improved, while in the sky, the dense fog gathered, resembling dark clouds pressing down overhead.

It was nighttime, and Yuan Chen was completely unaware of the danger. Taking advantage of the clear visibility, he quickly found the road and started running.

"Give me just ten seconds, and I can break through!" Yuan Chen roared in his heart.

The next moment, he stopped in his tracks and looked up in astonishment.

Lightning crackled in the sky, as if a fellow cultivator was undergoing tribulation, and the tribulation clouds had already begun to form.

"Zhuo Yang can trigger a lightning tribulation?" Yuan Chen murmured incredulously.

The tribulation clouds contained an immense and unparalleled pressure from heaven and earth, and the rolling lightning proved that all of this was real; Yuan Chen had been locked onto.

Lightning gathered, and then a bolt of lightning, seemingly combining all the power of lightning in the world, fiercely struck down, several meters thick.

Yuan Chen was unwilling to be killed by the sword. He roared and his golden core flew out of his mouth.

His face aged decades in an instant, turning him into a frail old man.

The golden core spun rapidly, instantly unleashing ten thousand golden rays that crashed into the heavenly lightning.

With a deafening roar, a massive fireball erupted from Tombstone Mountain, shaking the entire city of Lingzhou.

After the tremors subsided, local cultivators in Lingzhou left their homes to search for the source of the explosion.

"Cousin, the tremor seems to be coming from the east."

In front of a bar, Chen Guo, dressed in a leather jacket, crossed her arms, exuding a lazy and sophisticated vibe. She glanced at the burly man beside her.

Cui Yi's resolute face was solemn: "It was a true essence explosion that caused such a commotion. It must have been caused by a Golden Core stage expert."

Chen Guo snorted: "They really don't take the cultivators of Lingzhou seriously at all. They actually released such a powerful spell. Aren't they afraid of the Dragon Court causing trouble?"

"It's probably not as simple as you think." Cui Yi shook his head, his eyes filled with worry. "A Golden Core stage expert certainly wouldn't make such a commotion casually. The only explanation is that he had no choice but to take action, or rather, he was forced into it!"

"Forcing a Golden Core stage expert to use all his strength?" Chen Guo looked at Cui Yi in astonishment.

Nodding, Cui Yi pointed eastward and said in a deep voice, "Let's go see who has such great abilities!"

"it is good!"

The two cousins ​​walked into a back alley, took off together, and leaped repeatedly from rooftop to rooftop, quickly heading east.

Also heading east were many cultivators from Lingzhou, including Zhou Hanxiao and other employees of the Dragon Court's All-in-One Trade Company.

……

The towering flames had long since dissipated, and the hillside looked like a head that had been accidentally shaved bald by a barber, missing a large area of ​​vegetation within a radius of a hundred meters, with the soil turned upside down, leaving only rubble.

A figure crawled out of the ground at the edge, carefully examining the snow-white ferret in its arms.

"Are you hurt?" Zhuo Yang asked softly.

Little Diao shook his head, and an ugly smile appeared on the sable's face.

Zhuo Yang nodded, straightened his messy hair, and walked towards the middle of the rubble field.

He activated the Heavenly Thunder Locking Mist Formation to unleash a lightning tribulation, which nearly exhausted his true essence. The result was perfect; even if Yuan Chen activated his Golden Core to withstand the heavenly thunder at the last moment, he would still be burned to ashes by the lightning and fire.

Next, it's time to find equipment. A master at the Golden Core stage will surely leave behind some good stuff.

Holding the little dog, Zhuo Yang first found an exquisite longsword, which was Yuan Chen's Ink Cloud Sword.

The longsword was lighter than he had imagined. Zhuo Yang weighed it in his hand and immediately laughed, "The blade is actually infused with Wuding True Iron!"

Unfixed True Iron is a rare material for forging weapons. It can improve the transmission of true essence within weapons and is very light, which can reduce the weight of magical treasures. It is especially suitable for cultivators who use swords to forge longswords.

"Yuan Chen said he's from the Moyun Sword Sect. It seems the Moyun Sword Sect is quite wealthy!"

In an instant, Zhuo Yang had the idea of ​​robbing a rich man, and planned to visit the Moyun Sword Sect whenever he had free time, thinking he would definitely gain something.

Zhuo Yang put the Mo Yun Sword into his Qiankun Bag and continued his search.

Yuan Chen has a ring in his hand, which is a magical artifact similar to the Qiankun Bag, and he must find it.

"Squeak!"

The little rascal sniffed and pointed its little paws at a huge rock.

Zhuo Yang immediately laughed and said, "Your nose is still the best!"

Upon reaching the side of the boulder, there was indeed an ancient ring, worn on a charred finger.

Zhuo Yang tested the ring and found that it was indeed restricted and could not be removed in a short time.

"Unless my cultivation level is higher than Yuan Chen's, it will take a long time to crack it!" Zhuo Yang clicked his tongue and stuffed the ring into his pocket.

Yuan Chen is at the late Golden Core stage, which is considered a very powerful expert given the current concentration of spiritual energy on Blue Star. There must be something good in his storage ring.

Unfortunately, the restriction cannot be broken, so I can only save it for now.

"Little rascal, use your skills again and sniff around to see if there's anything else good nearby," Zhuo Yang said with a smile.

Xiao Diao nodded vigorously. She had suffered a great loss at Yuan Chen's hands today, and she wouldn't be satisfied until she had squeezed every last drop out of Yuan Chen.

After sniffing for a while, it pointed with its little paw and chirped excitedly a few times.

Zhuo Yang walked over quickly, searched through the pile of stones for a while, and found a metal bracelet.

"A defensive artifact!" Zhuo Yang exclaimed in surprise.

I tested it with my true essence and found that it could form a shield of energy in front of me, which could at least defend against bullets from all the guns on Earth.

“I no longer need it. I suppose Yuan Chen didn’t use it either, and he knows its defensive capabilities are not high.” Zhuo Yang frowned. “However, it can be given away.”

Xiao Diao looked on with a knowing expression.

The most powerful thing about a monster is its body. Instead of using precious resources to forge defensive artifacts, it would be better to use them to strengthen itself.

At this moment, Zhuo Yang suddenly frowned and said in a deep voice, "Someone's coming. You should hide first!"

Little Diao immediately jumped to the ground and hid, limping.
