#57 - Chapter 57 The Secret of Nichang

【You are at the tenth level of Foundation Establishment, and one step further is Core Formation. Next, you have the following options:】

【A: Play it safe and continue cultivating. In about twenty years, you can break through to Core Formation with your own strength.】

【B: Go to the auction house and buy a Core Condensation Pill. The Core Condensation Pill can increase the probability of Core Formation. With the help of the Core Condensation Pill, you can break through to Core Formation within five years.】

【C: Join the City Lord's Mansion, bide your time, and wait for the opening of the Mountains and Seas Secret Realm in ten years. The Grand Dao Flower in the Mountains and Seas Secret Realm can help you achieve a Nine-Pattern Golden Core.】

Looking at the options given by the panel, Lin Changqing quickly made a decision.

Option A is out of the question. It's the first one to be eliminated. Option A wastes time and doesn't yield good results.

Option B, buying the Core Condensation Pill, saves time and allows Lin Changqing to form his core within five years.

However, relying on the Core Condensation Pill, Lin Changqing might only be able to achieve a Six-Pattern Golden Core at most.

So, option B is also not an option.

Finally, Lin Changqing looked at option C, which was his choice.

Although option C delays the time and requires waiting for ten years, the result is the best.

You should know that the Autumn Moon female demon, who is now the number one person in Qingzhou, is only a Six-Pattern Golden Core.

And Lin Changqing only needs to wait ten more years to obtain the Grand Dao Flower and complete the Nine-Pattern Golden Core!

Using ten years to exchange for a Nine-Pattern Golden Core is too good of a deal!

"To achieve the Golden Core, I must achieve the strongest!" Lin Changqing chose option C without hesitation.

【You have chosen option C, joining the City Lord's Mansion and waiting for the Mountains and Seas Secret Realm in ten years.】

【You spent a day flying back to Blackwater Square City from the southern part of Blackwater County. At this moment, the Autumn Moon female demon led the Heavenly Demon Sect to attack and plunder the inner city.】

【Arriving in the inner city, you saw corpses everywhere. Countless people died in the Heavenly Demon Sect's attack last night. You sighed in your heart, the evil deeds of the demonic path are just the beginning, and the tragic scenes that happened in the inner city will be seen everywhere in Qingzhou in the future.】

【You came to the City Lord's Mansion. Out of some needs, you hid some of your strength and only revealed the seventh level of Foundation Establishment.】

【With the cultivation base of the seventh level of Foundation Establishment, you smoothly became a guest elder of the City Lord's Mansion. At the same time, you also have some questions in your mind.】

【These questions have actually been in your mind since the first simulation. What is the treasure that the Autumn Moon female demon took away when she attacked Blackwater Square City?】

【The Battle of Blackwater Square City can be said to be the beginning of the outbreak between the righteous and demonic paths. What kind of treasure would make the Autumn Moon female demon at the tenth level of Golden Core personally come to take it?】

【Is it a Dao artifact like the Jianmu Diagram? Or is it the legendary Nascent Soul spiritual object? Or is it...】

【At the same time, you are also wondering why Fairy Neon Dress only has the cultivation base of the middle stage of Golden Core. Why can such a cultivation base survive under the hands of the Autumn Moon female demon?】

【You should know that even at the same level of the tenth level of Golden Core, Autumn Moon can kill them with the advantage of the Six-Pattern Golden Core.】

【You have some doubts about Fairy Neon Dress being able to survive the attack of the Autumn Moon female demon.】

【Did the Autumn Moon female demon only take the treasure, so she let Fairy Neon Dress go? But this doesn't make sense. Is the Autumn Moon female demon so kind?】

【Or does Fairy Neon Dress have some trump cards to survive?】

【Or is Fairy Neon Dress and Autumn Moon...】

"There are many mysteries. What is the treasure that the Autumn Moon female demon took away, and why was Fairy Neon Dress able to escape from Autumn Moon's hands?"

Looking at the panel, Lin Changqing sighed. He only felt that there were many secrets waiting for him to solve.

【You feel that the Autumn Moon female demon's attack on Blackwater Square City is very confusing, and you guess that there may be some secrets in it.】

【Maybe when you become a Golden Core and can be on an equal footing with Fairy Neon Dress, you can understand these secrets.】

【Tai Xu Calendar 335, this is the fifth year you have been in the City Lord's Mansion. Like the previous simulations, you are still taking on tasks and then beheading demons.】

【In these five years, by killing many demonic path geniuses, you have gained a small reputation in the righteous path of Blackwater County. You have also gained the trust of everyone in the City Lord's Mansion. Fairy Neon Dress has met with you several times and praised your contribution to the righteous path.】

【You also have a good relationship with True Person Wu Bai. After all, your potential has already been shown. Everyone is willing to make friends with a future Golden Core True Person.】

【So you took this opportunity to inquire about what the treasure that the Autumn Moon female demon obtained from True Person Wu Bai, but to no avail.】

【True Person Wu Bai said that he didn't know either.】

"It seems that I can only ask Fairy Neon Dress in person when I reach the Golden Core," you thought to yourself.

【Tai Xu Calendar 336, you...】

【Tai Xu Calendar 3...】

【Tai Xu Calendar 340, in a flash, you have experienced another five years in this simulation, which is also the tenth year you have stayed in the City Lord's Mansion.】

【Regarding what the treasure that Autumn Moon took away is, you don't have many clues, but you don't have time to take care of it, because in the tenth year, the Mountains and Seas Secret Realm that you have been waiting for for ten years is about to open.】

【Tai Xu Calendar 340, like the previous life, on March 18th, you obtained the Mountains and Seas Secret Realm quota.】

"Changqing, I hope you can get the Golden Core opportunity this time you enter the secret realm, and add another Golden Core True Person to my righteous path."

【Inside the City Lord's Mansion, Fairy Neon Dress personally announced the quota to you. On April 1st, you followed Fairy Neon Dress to the location of the Mountains and Seas Secret Realm, Tiandu County.】

【You and Fairy Neon Dress spent a day flying to Tiandu County, and then waited for six days. On April 7th, the Mountains and Seas Secret Realm opened.】

【At the entrance of the secret realm, you once again saw the demonic path's number one genius, Mo Tian, riding in a Flood Dragon chariot, very stylish and pretentious.】

"You are Lin Changqing? You dare to kill my Heavenly Demon Sect's direct disciple. I've remembered you!"

"Entering the secret realm, I will avenge my junior brother and cut off your head! Draw out your soul!"

【Like the last simulation, Mo Tian rode in the Flood Dragon chariot, with a cold face, and came to you pretentiously and threatened you.】

【Hearing this, your heart was calm. In the last simulation, you at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment were already able to beat Mo Tian without any power to fight back.】

【This time, it will be even easier for you at the tenth level of Foundation Establishment to deal with Mo Tian.】

【Soon, the secret realm opened, you entered the secret realm, and you came to the location where the Black Bull King was last time. You have to find the Dragon Blood Martial Pool and get the token to open the Wood Dragon Pool.】

【Each simulation, you can only get feedback on your cultivation base. You can't get external things like magic weapons and elixirs, so you have to take it again.】

【Soon, you got the token.】

【Next, you waited for another five days, and then came to the central mountain range. The following plot development is similar. Mo Tian arrogantly guarded the inner secret realm entrance, defeating all the righteous path geniuses and not letting the righteous path enter.】

【Then you took action, and you at the tenth level of Foundation Establishment defeated Mo Tian with just one move, beating Mo Tian without any power to fight back.】

【Mo Tian escaped into the inner secret realm, and you followed him in, and then you followed him into that remote palace where the Grand Dao Flower was hidden.】

"Lin Changqing, you wait! When I achieve the Nine-Pattern Golden Core, I'll see how you fight me."

【Mo Tian looked at the Grand Dao Flower with an excited expression...】
