My Core is the Boss-Chapter 152.2: If I Summon My Golden Core, How Will You Deal With It?

Chapter 152.2: If I Summon My Golden Core, How Will You Deal With It?

As the grand palace master donned the Emperor Dragon Shock Crown, everyone were dragged into a void world.

Before Qi Yuan’s eyes, the once-magnificent grand palace master now surged with overwhelming aura, ancient divinity lying dormant within him.

The godly being extended a single finger. "Die!"

Such a tyrannical, unreasonable finger—it was powerful enough to erase nearly a million square kilometers of the Great Shang Kingdom from the map. Even dozens, hundreds, or thousands of late-stage Violet Palace great cultivators would be utterly devastated by it, let alone humans.

"Forcing me to use such foundations to kill you... Blood-Clothed Sword God, die well!" The grand palace master examined Qi Yuan as if intending to remember him. Just then, his pupils jumped. "You're not Violet Palace? Not even Nascent Soul!"

His heart skipped violently.

The Violet Palaces present were baffled by his statement.

Qi Yuan smiled casually. "When did I ever say I was Violet Palace? I have Heavenly Dao class and Star Golden Core! Killing a god using my core wouldn’t be too much, would it?"

His blood-red robe melted away as blazing radiance spread from his dantian. Something terrifying was brewing. The blazing sun burned fiercely, boundless light and heat surging.

For the first time, fear appeared on the grand palace master's face. Feeling an ominous sense of danger, he no longer hesitated. "Die!"

The god’s finger descended, pressing straight toward Qi Yuan. It was enough to sink a continent and erase an entire nation from existence.

The grand palace master roared, "How are you going to block a god's finger?!"

Heaven and earth quaked. The void world’s unknown matter churned violently, all space seemingly compressed by that godly finger.

Qi Yuan finally unleashed his core. "And how are you going to respond if I were to unleash my Star Golden Core?!"

Heaven descended and earth surged. Water and fire intertwined. Yin and yang converged. The intermingling of energies reached perfection, forming the core—the sun itself!

"I am the great sun!"

Time seemed to freeze at that instant. In Qi Yuan's vision, the descending god's finger slowed to an incomparably sluggish pace. Boundless spiritual energy erupted outward. Within Qi Yuan's dantian, scorching heat, a blazing sun, and annihilation surged forth.

Everyone in the Canglan World could see a tiny sun appearing out of nowhere in the heavens, rapidly expanding. All cultivators craned their heads toward the sky. They saw it burning, radiating endless light and heat as it fell. The stars across the firmament trembled violently. Starlight, sunlight, and moonlight alike were utterly eclipsed by the small sun.

Terror and dread filled people’s faces. Only a single, blazing great sun remained in the heavens. It even seemed as though it were about to crash into the Canglan World itself. Countless terrifying existences awakened in alarm, raising their gaze toward that dreadful phenomena.

The sun rose over Canglan. The world was shaken and even gods awoke in horror.

Within the void world, a phantom image of a great sun slowly rose behind Qi Yuan. Boundless radiance and endless flames danced across him. He was as sacred as the great sun itself. Any living being who saw that projection grew fearful.

Reflected in the grand palace master's golden pupils was the image of that great sun. His face was filled with disbelief and utter incomprehension. "What exactly are you?"

Instead of answering, Qi Yuan raised his head, gazing upon the nearly frozen god’s finger. Solar radiance blazed within his eyes. "The great sun shines resplendently, illuminating the four directions. I wear the dark robe, issuing the laws of the nine statutes!"

The phantom sun behind him continued to expand. The entire void world seemed incapable of containing this great sun.

"A mere immortal god, behold my Star Golden Core!"

The phantom sun exploded. Endless flames, boundless light, and heat swept across the entire void world.

Under the majestic radiance, the once-almighty god's finger seemed like a joke. It melted away like a wax statue, vanishing into nothingness. The whole void world was engulfed in flames, upheaval, and collapse.

The Emperor Dragon Shock Crown didn’t even crack before being submerged directly into the endless fire and heat.

The grand palace master’s face froze as he stared vacantly at the great sun, already being swallowed by it. "Sun... Golden Core..."

He couldn’t comprehend it—this went far beyond his wildest imagination. Even as a Yin Spirit, he couldn’t understand how a Star Golden Core could exist. Not that it mattered anymore.

The moment he beheld the great sun, he was reduced to ashes, unable to offer the slightest resistance. Nor did the rest of the cultivators stand any chance. They vanished without a trace. Who could stand the might of the great sun? Over a thousand cultivators of Bright Palace perished just like that.

Qi Yuan stood within the void world like a blazing sun. In his eyes, endless True Sun Fire flickered. His dantian was truly burning with passion now. After summoning the Star Golden Core, Bright Palace became terrifyingly weak in Qi Yuan's eyes.

Just then, a delighted voice rang out. "Blood Drop!"

Qi Yuan felt something delicate and soft pressing against him. He looked at Canary’s projection, surprise flashing in his eyes. "Canary?"

However, he could sense that her figure was slowly becoming translucent, destined to fade away.

"You've been gone for several days," the Canary said as she always did. Her black long dress made her cool pale skin stand out even more. Her slender waist could be easily embraced. Beneath the exquisitely embroidered hem, black stockings wrapped her fair thighs and jade-like lotus feet.

"Several days?" Qi Yuan asked. "A day here is a hundred years in the heavens. In truth, I've been gone for over a thousand years. You live upon my engraved Golden Core, existing each day in a state between forgetting and not forgetting. For you, time is effectively frozen in another sense."

He had not expected that summoning the projection of his Golden Core would also summon Canary’s projection.

Canary froze briefly, then smiled sweetly. "So that means, throughout those long years, time has been standing still only for me?"

Her projection grew fainter and fainter.

Qi Yuan nodded. "If you wish to change that, you can leave the Golden Core."

Canary gazed at Qi Yuan, full of yearning. "No, this is fine too."

She knew she was about to leave.

"Blood Drop, I’ve become very powerful!" She raised her snow-white fist and waved it before Qi Yuan. "Next time, no need to summon that big core. It’s a waste! Just call me, and I can help you kill enemies. That worm just now, I can handle ten of them!"

She had received Qi Yuan’s gift, and her realm had advanced yet again.

Qi Yuan gently stroked the Canary's black hair. "Once my spiritual energy is full again, I'll definitely call you down to play."

His internal spiritual energy had been severely depleted. He couldn’t summon it again in a short time. After all, this was not crossing a world, but a universe

"You don't need to summon me all the time. Just call me when you're in danger," said Canary sensibly. She stared at him, stars in her eyes. "This time, I was the one who came without warning and left just as abruptly."

Qi Yuan held her hand as she slowly dissipated. Near the end, he placed a wisp of flame into her palm. "This is True Sun Fire I've newly obtained. Ignite it upon the core."

That way, his Golden Core could devour other planets and stars, growing stronger with each one.

Canary nodded vigorously before vanishing completely. "Alright."

Qi Yuan's dark robe turned blood-red once more, and his figure grew insubstantial. He was leaving the void world, returning to the real world.

Outside, all the Violet Palace cultivators watching were utterly stunned. Just moments earlier, the grand palace master had dragged the Blood-Clothed Sword God into the void world. Then, above the heavens, strange phenomena erupted. The great sun suddenly fell.

Across the Canglan World, countless powerful, terrifying existences struck out simultaneously. Beams of light shot into the sky, attempting to block the great sun. They seemed to be attempting to drag it away. The entire world was nearly destroyed in that collision.

Though they had no idea what had occurred, every Violet Palace felt as if they had narrowly survived a great calamity.

Just then, a Violet Palace said, "The battle between the Blood-Clothed Sword God and Bright Palace should be decided now, right?"

"With the Emperor Dragon Shock Crown, the grand palace master is on par with a Yin Spirit. The Blood-Clothed Sword God is definitely dead! Bright Palace's people should be coming out soon."

"What a pity for the Blood-Clothed Sword God, a generation's great power, fallen here."

Outside the Bright Palace Headquarters, the desolate sound of the suona continued.

Xu Yeli blew the suona, emotions surging in his heart. "Blood-Clothed Sword God... I can’t leave, hence I will send you off on your final journey."

The suona's wail grew even more mournful.

Suddenly, a ripple spread in front of the Bright Palace Headquarters. Everyone turned to look, and saw a blood-red figure emerge from the void world. His eyes were deep, as though he had endured endless ages.

All the Violet Palace cultivators were completely stunned.

"The Blood-Clothed Sword God?"

"How is it him who came out?!"

"How is that possible?!"

They were confused, bewildered, and lost. Isn’t the Blood-Clothed Sword God a mere Violet Palace? How could he possibly win against a Yin Spirit?

The mournful suona music was still playing all the while.

Looking at the empty Bright Palace, Qi Yuan suddenly felt an overwhelming sorrow. "Waaah... you died so miserably! How could you not even leave a single leg hair behind! You didn't leave anything for me at all! Waaah... my white moonlight, how could you abandon me and leave just like that?"

All the Violet Palaces were dumbfounded. They stared at Qi Yuan, utterly speechless.

Finally, a Violet Palace cultivator couldn't hold back and glanced at a Nascent Soul cultivator.

That Nascent Soul cultivator nervously flew toward Qi Yuan. "Senior Blood-Robed Sword God, did you kill the people of Bright Palace?"

Qi Yuan truly couldn't squeeze out any tears, but his heart was genuinely overwhelmed with grief. "Justice will surely triumph over evil."

The Nascent Soul cultivator dared not speak, staring at the blood-red demonic sword in Qi Yuan's sword casket. Hello? You look like the villain here.

Then, Qi Yuan rose and scanned his surroundings, about to deliver a post-battle speech.

"I was not fighting alone! Behind me stand the Immortal-Pill Golden Core, Star Golden Core, Fox Den Xiao Li, the Four Divine Flower Emperors, and Lord Wind. All cultivators and ordinary people oppressed by Bright Palace across the world also stand behind me!" he said passionately, summarizing the battle and elevating its theme. Yet he was soon overcome with sorrow, his voice hoarse as he couldn’t help glancing back at the Bright Palace. "Waaah... you're so cruel, leaving nothing for me."

Everyone stared blankly, faces filled with a single word. What?! 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

That day, the Blood-Clothed Sword God single-handedly annihilated Bright Palace, delivered an impassioned speech, wept at their grave for three hours, and drifted away.

No one knew what had truly happened within the void world. Everyone's attention was fixed on that falling sun.
