"Huh (o゜▽゜)o☆! Grapes! I want to eat grapes too!"
In the spirit pool, Little Fatty swam over happily, circling around Qin Beast, and occasionally rubbing its chubby head against Qin Beast's feet, making Qin Beast feel itchy.
"Spineless little fatso..."
Qin Shou smiled and tossed out a grape.
Thump!
Seeing this, Little Fatty leaped out of the water with a somersault, accurately snatched the grape, squinted his big eyes, and happily swallowed it.
The proud and self-respecting Da Mei watched from afar, swallowing hard... "Hmph, my sister has no backbone. How could she eat that bad guy's grapes!"
"Da Mei, come and eat some grapes!"
Wenqing also sat by the Spirit Pool, soaking her feet, and gently called out to Damei.
"Ha! Here I come! Here I come!"
"Pretty lady, I'm here!"
Da Mei swam over happily, mimicking Xiao Pang, and circled around Wen Qing.
I'm not craving grapes, I just don't want to upset the pretty girl.
Ever since tasting the deliciousness of grapes, Da Mei often becomes very obedient, but compared to Xiao Pang, her obedience has an extra legitimate reason and a bit of backbone—she only eats grapes fed to her by pretty girls!
"My little darling, have you been having any questions about your cultivation lately, and do you need your master to answer them?"
Qin Shou asked Wen Qing.
Wenqing replied, "Master, what is the Golden Core Realm?"
"Um?"
Qin Shou couldn't help but look at Wen Qing.
Wow, I didn't know until I saw it, and it was quite a surprise.
With the aid of the Sun and Moon Pearl and top-grade pills, Wen Qing cultivated for less than ten years, progressing from the initial stage of Foundation Establishment to the ninth level of Foundation Establishment.
Such talent would be considered that of a genius in the outside world.
If he were placed in a major sect, he could probably become a core disciple.
"The Golden Core Realm is the third realm of cultivation. It is fundamentally different from the first two realms and is an important opportunity for all cultivators to reshape themselves and change their destiny through visualization."
Qin Beast slowly explained:
"Those who enter the Golden Elixir realm are all in a state of perfect mental perfection, refining themselves into the elixir, and using themselves as the elixir."
The human body is used as a furnace, with the essence and qi within as the medicine, refined by the spirit, to form a radiant golden elixir that is "unafraid of the turbidity of the world."
Qin Shou's voice, like a spring breeze and flowing water, gently flowed into a warm heart, slowly opening a brand new door for it.
"Master, what's the difference between the Golden Core Realm and the Foundation Establishment Realm?"
"The difference is huge."
Qin Shou laughed and said, "The Golden Core Realm is actually a leap in the level of life."
Upon entering this realm, cultivators can escape the cycle of life in the mortal world, retain their youthful appearance, and transform their physical form to display countless fantasies, greatly increasing the power of spells and talismans...
Moreover, once you enter this realm, your lifespan will increase significantly.
"Understood, Master."
Wen Qing nodded thoughtfully and said, "So, the Golden Core Realm is actually a state of 'heart like water,' a completely new understanding of heaven and earth for us cultivators?"
"Yes, you could say that."
Qin Shou nodded approvingly, "Little lover, your comprehension is extraordinary. It is hoped that you will comprehend the Great Dao of the Golden Core within sixty years."
It is important to know that refining Qi is easy but establishing a foundation is difficult, and forming a golden core is even more difficult. It requires not only talent, spiritual roots, and resources, but most importantly, a person's comprehension, understanding of life, and perception of the universe.
In this world, those who can form a golden elixir within sixty years are all geniuses among geniuses.
Wen Qing is in her thirties this year and has reached the ninth level of Foundation Establishment. She only needs to hone her skills for a few more years to achieve the perfection of Foundation Establishment. At that time, she can focus on comprehending the connection between all things and the universe, and explore her own Golden Core Path.
If one is lucky, one can attain the Golden Elixir after sixty years.
If you're unlucky, you might be stuck here for life.
After all, there are countless living examples throughout history.
"Sigh, this world is truly unfair."
Qin Shou sighed inwardly, "Why am I a cheater! Why do I possess the destiny of an Immortal Emperor! Why is my comprehension maxed out! Why can I cultivate without inner demons or bottlenecks?! Why?!!"
"It's all the fault of this damn system; it makes me feel like my efforts have no meaning."
Qin Shou blamed everything on the dog system, using this as a way to comfort himself with his compassion for the world and his willingness to share its suffering.
[System:.....................Then I'll go]
"Alas, if only Changsheng had half of your talent."
Qin Shou lay flat on the lawn with his hands behind his head, his gaze piercing through the layers of mulberry tree branches and falling towards the high sky.
He looked somewhat worried.
"How heartbroken I would be if someone who desires immortality could not attain it!"
......
Just as Qin Shou was lost in thought, the sky above Turtle Mountain suddenly darkened.
The void was filled with countless figures, each clad in a blood-red robe and exuding a terrifying aura.
Several of the figures possessed exceptionally powerful auras.
Holy crap!
Qin Shou sat up abruptly.
In all my past lives, I have never seen such a spectacle.
"What the hell happened? Can anyone tell me???"
"Master, Master, should we run away?"
Wen Qing anxiously gazed at the sky, while simultaneously drawing out a wisp of spiritual energy from her fingertips, pulling the black rabbit, which was squatting in the distance munching on grass, towards her and holding it tightly in her arms.
"Don't panic! Don't panic!"
"With the mountain-protecting formation in place, let's observe the situation and find out the specifics first."
Qin Shou comforted Wen Qing while simultaneously using the system's "All Things Detection" function to check the situation.
[Li Buqing, Sect Master of the Blood Refining Sect, with a Nascent Soul Stage 1 cultivation. He has developed a favorable impression of you because you killed Wu Renyao. His current favorability rating is 20.]
"Hiss~! A Nascent Soul cultivator!"
Qin Shou gasped.
Aside from that old dragon in the Ink River, this Blood Refining Sect Master was the strongest cultivator I had ever seen.
Don't panic, it's just a Nascent Soul cultivator, I can easily defeat it with one hand!
Hmph, do you really think I've wasted my time forming the Chaos Golden Core?
"But what's with this 'friendship level' thing? System, come explain!"
[Li Buqing slept with Wu Renyao's wife and also slept with his three concubines. Wu Renyao discovered this and had been plotting to seize power. Li Buqing had long harbored resentment towards him. You successfully killed Wu Renyao, which made him develop feelings for you.]
"Wow, system, you actually offered an explanation."
The Qin beast continued its testing.
[Sun Zhihao, the second elder of the Blood Refining Sect, with a Golden Core level six cultivation. Because you killed Wu Renyao, he successfully took the position of Grand Elder, and therefore developed a good impression of you. His current favorability is 30.]
[Wei Junzhi, the third elder of the Blood Refining Sect, with a cultivation level of the fourth level of the Golden Core stage, has a feud with Wu Renyao over the theft of his wife. He develops feelings for you because you killed Wu Renyao, and his current favorability rating is 66.]
"What's the meaning?"
"The Third Elder's wife became the First Elder's wife and then the Sect Master slept with her???"
"Hiss~, this sect is really chaotic?"
