With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World-Chapter 211 - 208: Differences Between Golden Cores
Moreover, in this realm, it seems that directly using sword intent to condense the Golden Core brings greater benefits.
In the eyes of the Sword Mountain River’s sword cultivators, the Golden Cores of the Breaking Cocoon Alliance and the Sword Mountain River are not of the same level. Even if their life levels are the same, their combat power differs vastly.
It seems that with the sword cultivators practicing in this realm for tens of thousands of years, the rules of the entire world have started to lean towards the Sword Dao.
Although the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core are vastly different, instances of Foundation Establishment sword cultivators attacking non-sword cultivator Golden Cores inversely are rare but not sensational, and this achievement has even been included as a rough criterion for becoming a Celestial Pride of Sword Mountain River.
[In the 97,972nd year of the Celestial Sword Calendar, while presiding over a new phase of disciple recruitment at the Battle Absolute Sword Institute, you discovered many promising talents and recruited an A-Class Seed from the Jinn Dynasty.]
[After a year of observation, you found that the girl who resembled Qingling was not Qingling herself; they were just two extremely similar individuals. Her name is Zixia, and upon your examination, you discovered she has a spirit root but lacks Sword Dao talent, so you arranged for her in the mundane world.]
[In the same year, while exchanging experiences externally, you exchanged swords with Jianmu Sword Academy using the Wood Element Sword, and you gained many insights and made several friends there.]
[In the 97,973rd year of the Celestial Sword Calendar, the Breaking Cocoon Alliance stirred up great chaos in the Wood Element Domain, which was later pacified by the strong figures of the domain.]
............
[In the 97,975th year of the Celestial Sword Calendar, you passed by Leng Mei’s Sword Institute only to realize Leng Mei hadn’t communicated with you and Fang Jie for decades, although you three were once A-Class Seeds of the same generation. You went forward to inquire.]
[The Sword Institute informed you that Leng Mei died three years ago, leaving you quite bewildered.]
Leng Mei’s talent was even a notch higher than Pei Min back in the day, and now she’s dead?
[You informed Fang Jie, and you two went to Leng Mei’s grave to pay respects, contemplating how unforeseen events can outpace even tomorrow.]
............
[In the 97,976th year of the Celestial Sword Calendar, you went to the Fire Element Middle Domain to exchange learnings with the Great Sword Institute and Golden Crow Sword Institute, using your Fire Element Sword to defeat several people, but were ultimately defeated by Chi Xia, who also saw your slight shortcomings with the Fire Element Sword and offered pointers, for which you were grateful and exchanged contacts with her.]
[Later that year, disciples from Golden Crow Sword Institute came to Battle Absolute Sword Institute for exchanges, sequentially defeating five first-tier disciples. You used the Five Elements Sword to easily defeat these Golden Crow Sword Institute disciples, leaving them quite convinced, and you could generally guess their purpose.]
[Your interactions with Chi Xia didn’t cease; you felt that many of Chi Xia’s philosophies in the Sword Dao coincidentally resonated with yours.]
[Chi Xia told you that the Breaking Cocoon Alliance’s destructive actions have been increasingly frequent recently.]
.........
[In the 97,978th year of the Celestial Sword Calendar, you obtained a great medicine in the Wood Element Domain, which you ingested to enhance your foundation.]
[During this endeavor, you encountered the Breaking Cocoon Alliance activating a Heaven and Earth Blood Sacrifice Array; the team comprised of several sword institute disciples couldn’t withstand it. You stepped forward, shattered the array with one sword strike, and cut down a Golden Core with a second.]
[Deploying the Five Elements Sword Array, this Breaking Cocoon Alliance Golden Core tangled with you for a long time, but upon realizing he wasn’t your match, he fled.]
[You repelled the Golden Core Master a second time, feeling your own strength while pondering the Golden Core realm’s mysteries.]
[You declined the thanks of the disciples you saved and returned to the Battle Absolute Sword Institute, seeking insight from Mr. Huishan.]
[Mr. Huishan conjured an incarnation equivalent to the Golden Core realm, its sword intent proudly exuding, with Essence, Qi, and Spirit condensed utterly.]
[You released the Five Elements Flying Sword, the swords flew, flashing brilliantly in five colors, yet the formidable and perpetually flowing Five Elements Sword Array was suppressed by Mr. Huishan’s incarnation with a single sword.]
[You collected sword essence again, using your Sword Dao techniques realized in the past six years, crafting the most fiercely offensive sword intent with Heaven-Breaking Sword Intent as the carrier and gathering the Five Elements Sword Intent.]
[This sword intent is exceptionally fierce, shedding all other characteristics, renowned solely for its destructive power. This sword move was a desperate attempt you devised to kill the Breaking Cocoon Alliance Golden Core, but on deployment, Mr. Huishan struck with one sword, suppressing you once more.]
[You gathered Vast Sword Intent again, your form becoming phantasmal, with purple qi rising grandly, attempting to break the stalemate with the Sword of Spirit, yet Mr. Huishan struck again, suppressing you anew.]
[Three swords led to three defeats; you seemed to perceive the gap between the incarnation of Mr. Huishan’s early-stage Golden Core and those Breaking Cocoon Alliance Golden Cores...]
Pei Min was panting heavily, five flying swords scattered on the ground, Pei Min knelt with one flying sword for support.
Those three swords merely represented Pei Min’s total achievements in sword practice over sixty years.
In the depths of Pei Min’s eyes, there was a hint of sudden realization.
Mr. Huishan, a plain old man in gray clothes, calmly looked at Pei Min and said nothing proactive.
Pei Min adjusted his breath, stood up, and respectfully bowed to Mr. Huishan.
He said, "I have realized as a disciple..."
"Breaking Cocoon Alliance’s cultivators... seem to lack something... in comparison to sword cultivator Golden Cores..."
Facing Mr. Huishan, Pei Min truly felt the gap in life levels, while confronting the Breaking Cocoon Alliance Golden Core only brought a lot of pressure that could spur Pei Min’s fighting spirit, though Mr. Huishan’s pressure sought to extinguish Pei Min’s resolve.
"Indeed, Breaking Cocoon Alliance Golden Cores are almost entirely condensed through the Fake Core method, which relies on external sources, making it impossible for them to achieve a perfect form..."
"Even those Demon Cultivators rely excessively on the power of their bloodline..."
"Although they are Golden Core level, they’re different from sword cultivators," Mr. Huishan explained slowly.
Jiang Ming, who had been watching the golden subtitles, widened his eyes at this moment.
He couldn’t help but exclaim, "How is that possible!"
How could it be possible! The entire Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm follows this path.
The gap between Foundation Establishment and Golden Core is enormous, which led to using Fake Core for transition. None of Jiuzhou’s vast and ancient history has ever questioned this path; how could the Fake Core be wrong in this small pocket world?
It’s just a Grotto Heaven World where Divinity Transformation might not even exist!
Or is it... has Sword Spirit Heaven already created a higher method for Foundation Establishment to break through to Golden Core...
No, directly breaking from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core in Jiuzhou, though extremely rare, isn’t entirely unheard of...
Moreover... the gap between Golden Core Sword Cultivators and Breaking Cocoon Alliance Sword Cultivators... is quite wide.
But when compared to Jiuzhou’s Golden Core True Masters... the Golden Core Sword Cultivators here aren’t overwhelmingly strong either...
So... in the end, what is it?
