A burst of hearty laughter erupted again in the team channel.
Ning Yuge and Luo Tiangang still appeared carefree, laughing and joking on the Spirit Realm battlefield, manipulating their Foundation Establishment mechas to the point of killing each other. But deep down, they knew they were no longer the same—their cultivation had long since transcended the Foundation Establishment stage, quietly entering the Golden Core realm. However, they hadn't told anyone, not even Zero.
They remembered that day vividly. After Ming Xuanzi's inner demons were defeated by Zero and he self-destructed, their spiritual energy suddenly became agitated, as if drawn by some invisible force, and they began to uncontrollably attack their golden cores. They immediately logged off and returned to the sect to seek guidance from their master.
Ning Yuge's master, Fairy Yaoguang, initially thought that he was going to overcome the tribulation of his inner demons, and specifically told him to be careful of his inner demons of lust. Unexpectedly, Ning Yuge's promotion was unusually smooth.
Fairy Yaoguang asked him, "Where is your inner demon of lust? Has it not clouded your mind?"
Ning Yuge smiled frivolously, with a hint of aftertaste in her eyes: "Yes, there are many beauties dancing gracefully, with fairy skirts fluttering, and the surging fairies hugging left and right, warm and soft, especially fragrant and beautiful."
Fairy Yaoguang's brows twitched slightly, and she suppressed her anger: "Then how did you pass?"
"It's very simple," Ning Yuge spread out his hands proudly, "Anyway, they are fake, so it's not a loss to get them for free. I know they are illusions, no matter how fragrant they are, I don't care. As long as I don't pay a price, I can get them for free."
Fairy Yaoguang's face turned from blue to red, then from red to blue, and finally she gnashed her teeth, shaking with anger: "You...how can you still be so proud!"
"This shows that I am determined." Ning Yuge said seriously.
"You're so determined!" Fairy Yaoguang slammed the table, "Go practice your sword skills!"
Ning Yuge chuckled and quickly slipped out, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face - after all, he was promoted to the Golden Core stage and also enjoyed a free beauty dance, so it was a win-win no matter how you looked at it.
Luo Tiangang's advancement was even more bizarre. His master, True Man Qingfeng, believed he would also face the test of illusions and even made preparations in advance, intending to protect him and intervene at any time to prevent the inner demon tribulation from getting out of control.
As a result, as soon as the illusion unfolded and the fairy had no time to speak, Luo Tiangang raised his hand and slapped it, shattering the entire illusion.
"What are you doing?" Master Qingfeng was stunned.
Luo Tiangang replied calmly: "These illusions are too boring and uninteresting."
"Boring?" Qingfeng Zhenren's eyes twitched. "The inner demon of lust is the most difficult hurdle, and you haven't wavered at all?"
Luo Tiangang nodded as a matter of course: "If I were an inner demon, you'd better turn me into some roast chicken."
"Roast chicken?" Master Qingfeng suspected that he had heard it wrong.
"Yes, only when you are full can you have the energy to practice." Luo Tiangang said seriously.
Master Qingfeng looked at his serious disciple and fell into a deep silence. Finally, he sighed deeply and said, "Forget it. I've never seen you act so outrageous."
After being promoted to the Jindan stage, the sect offered them the opportunity to upgrade to a Jindan-level mecha, but they unanimously refused.
Ning Yuge curled her lips and said, "I'm used to the Foundation Establishment Mecha. There's no need to change."
Luo Tiangang added calmly: "Yes, it's too troublesome to replace the new one. The old mecha is more convenient."
"Have you two lost your minds?" Fairy Yaoguang couldn't help but complain. "The performance of the Jindan mecha far exceeds that of the Foundation Establishment mecha. If you don't switch, do you plan to continue using the Foundation Establishment mecha to fight against the King's Division?"
Ning Yuge spread his hands: "We are fighting quite smoothly here."
Luo Tiangang nodded: "Besides, the maintenance cost of the foundation-building mecha is cheap."
“…” Fairy Yaoguang took a deep breath and told herself not to be angry. It was not worth it. It would only damage her cultivation.
But she still felt that after Ning Yuge was promoted to the Golden Core stage, his frivolousness became even more excessive than before.
One time, Ning Yuge sighed while debugging the mecha: "Master, you are so beautiful."
Fairy Yaoguang's eyelids twitched, and she glared at him: "Stop talking nonsense."
"Really," Ning Yuge said with a smile that looked like he was asking for a beating, "I think you are much more beautiful than those fairies in the fantasy world."
Fairy Yaoguang clenched her hands so tightly that her veins popped out, and her voice was so cold it could freeze ice: "Ning—Yu—Ge—"
Ning Yuge quickly turned around and ran away: "Oh, Master, I have something else to do. Let's talk later!"
In the spiritual realm battlefield, No. 0 (Xiang Fan) was still completely unaware. He only thought that the Shadow Killer and the Black Tortoise Guard were monsters at the peak of the foundation building stage. Relying on their superb operations, they slaughtered all sides in the King's ranking and achieved a record worthy of being recorded in history.
Ling Ruoxi would occasionally ask, "Cousin, when did you two get promoted?"
Ning Yuge smiled and avoided the question: "Cousin, don't worry about these trivial matters. Our foundation-building mecha can still be used for a long time anyway."
Ling Ruoxi curled her lips: "Humph, it will be discovered sooner or later."
Zero had no doubts at all and even praised them openly in the channel: "Yingsha, Xuanwu, you two are simply legends in the foundation-building mecha world. I can hardly keep up with you."
Hearing this, Ning Yuge and Luo Tiangang looked at each other and almost couldn't help laughing, but on the surface they pretended to be humble: "No, no, the boss is the real master of the operation, we are just picking up the leaks."
At this moment, the entire spiritual realm battlefield was still unknown to anyone. Two Jindan cultivators were controlling the foundation-building mecha and were rampant on the battlefield.
