Chapter 334: Li Haoran Forms His Golden Core

Translator: yikaii Editor: yikaii

Lu Yang felt that The Great Xia Dynasty had an incredibly difficult task on its hands. In his view, the legal system was already quite comprehensive, leaving no room for additions or subtractions, capable of addressing any situation.

But the minds of cultivators were boundless.

It wasn’t just that cultivators had many ideas—plenty of them did—but only some among them actually had the extraordinary abilities to turn those ideas into reality.

This led to the legal system constantly lagging behind the whims of these powerful individuals.

Take, for example, the case of the governor of Qingzhou mentioned by the Fifth Elder.

It’s perfectly normal for Tribulation Crossing Stage cultivators to engage in duels, right? And during those duels, it’s normal for them to move mountains and fill seas, right? So wouldn’t it also be normal for me to accidentally relocate a city from a neighboring province into Qingzhou during a duel?

What Lu Yang didn’t know was that Dao Seeking Sect’s Nine had made significant contributions to The Great Xia’s legal system—primarily by demonstrating to The Great Xia just how incomplete their laws were and how many loopholes existed.

“Luckily, I’m an honest person and never cause trouble for The Great Xia Dynasty,” Lu Yang thought as he glanced at Meng Jingzhou and Li Haoran, realizing that he had a heavy responsibility ahead.

Why did he work so hard to be the best? Wasn’t it to set a good example for them, showing that they should also abide by the laws?

“Hey, why do you look so pale?” Qin Yanyan noticed the sweat beading on Li Haoran’s forehead.

Li Haoran’s body was trembling uncontrollably, and his aura fluctuated wildly, sometimes dropping to the early stages of Foundation Building, other times surging to the early stages of the Golden Core stage.

He struggled to squeeze out a few words through clenched teeth: “I’ve had a realization… I want to form my Golden Core.”

The Fifth Elder flashed to Li Haoran’s side and used his divine sense to scan his dantian, discovering that it was shrouded in mist—a sign that a Golden Core was beginning to form.

He spoke seriously, “Haoran, your situation is unique. You are the reincarnation of Qin Haoran, and something unpredictable could happen during your core formation. The best choice is to return to the sect for it—that’s the safest place!”

Li Haoran struggled to respond, “I’ll try, but my body is instinctively trying to form the core on its own, and I’m losing control.”

Lu Yang had read about this situation in books. This was the ideal scenario for a cultivator who had perfected the Foundation Building stage—the body automatically begins core formation, everything happens naturally, there’s no risk of failure, and the Golden Core will definitely be of the highest grade.

The more reincarnations someone had gone through, the better their innate talent would manifest at this moment!

Unfortunately, there were too many uncertainties surrounding Li Haoran, and their understanding of reincarnation was limited. Forming his core on the spot wasn’t the best option.

“Haoran, hang in there! I’ll get the flying shuttle going!”

The Fifth Elder opened the cabin door, pulling the four of them into the shuttle, which then sped forward at full throttle.

“Deep breaths, relax your body, deep breaths… yes, inhale, exhale…”

“Junior Brother Li, you have to hold on! You and your Golden Core will be just fine!”

“Elder, slow down the shuttle a bit—Junior Brother Li can’t hold on!”

“Junior Brother Li, relax. This isn’t anything major. Every cultivator goes through this; just push through it.”

On the shuttle, the two Golden Core stage protectors—Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou—were taking care of Li Haoran, encouraging and comforting him, wiping away his sweat, and attending to him with utmost care.

Qin Yanyan: “…”

Anyone who didn’t know better would think you two were taking care of a pregnant woman.

“The mist in the dantian is condensing—he’s about to form his core!”

“The outline of the Golden Core is starting to appear!”

“Keep going, Junior Brother Li—you can do it!”

Qin Yanyan thought to herself that this scene was becoming more and more fitting.

Li Haoran, with his five hearts facing the sky, absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy. Not a drop was left as he drew it all into his body, intensifying the reaction in his dantian. Waves of spiritual qi rippled through his entire body—through his skin, marrow, and meridians…

The mist in his dantian was continuously purified, transforming completely into liquid golden spiritual energy.

The golden spiritual energy compressed again, emitting a bright glow. The light flickered, continually devouring the surrounding golden spiritual energy.

Finally, a fully formed Golden Core took shape.

Li Haoran successfully formed his Golden Core!

“Did I succeed?” Li Haoran asked, somewhat uncertain.

His core formation process seemed surprisingly smooth, aside from the annoying voices of the two protectors in his ear.

“You succeeded.” The Fifth Elder confirmed with a nod after a thorough examination.

“But it’s still best to return to the sect for a more detailed checkup.”

Seeing that there were no unusual changes in Li Haoran before or after the core formation, the Fifth Elder breathed a sigh of relief.

“Finally, I’ve formed my core.” Li Haoran also let out a long breath. Now, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou would have no reason to show off in front of him.

“What kind of Golden Core did you form?”

Li Haoran grinned, “It’s an undocumented type of Golden Core—a Rebirth Golden Core!”

“Rebirth Golden Core?!”

Lu Yang thought the name sounded grand. Rebirth Golden Core—did it mean that Li Haoran had comprehended the true essence of reincarnation, allowing him to retain memories and live a second life, fixing past regrets?

If that were the case, the name would indeed be fitting.

“Let me show you.”

Without another word, Li Haoran raised a knife and cut off one of his arms, shocking everyone. They thought he had lost his mind.

An astonishing scene unfolded—the severed flesh wriggled, and in the blink of an eye, the severed arm grew back.

“Regeneration!” Meng Jingzhou exclaimed, recognizing the ability. This was a miraculous power that eunuchs dreamt of having.

Lu Yang: “…”

So that’s what a Rebirth Golden Core is about?

But on second thought, regeneration is incredibly useful in battle. And judging by Li Haoran’s demeanor, regrowing an arm didn’t seem to take much effort.

Compared to Meng Jingzhou’s Twin Single Golden Core and Barbarian Bone’s Ancestral Spirit Golden Core, Li Haoran’s Rebirth Golden Core actually seemed the most normal among this group.

“It’s not just limb regeneration—heart, blood, even the head, I can regrow them all,” Li Haoran proudly explained while the severed arm continued twitching on the ground.

“Why did you suddenly want to form your core? Did you have some sort of epiphany?”

Meng Jingzhou tried to recall what had happened before the core formation, but the only noteworthy event seemed to be the cleaners summoned by the court.

“Do you want to work in cleanup in the future?”

Li Haoran rolled his eyes, not sure how to respond: “Of course not. I don’t even know earth and wood-based spells. I just gained another part of Qin Haoran’s memories and realized I could use them for core formation, which led to my epiphany.”

This made Meng Jingzhou even more curious. “What did you see in the memories?”

Li Haoran was silent for a long time before slowly saying, “He used his ability to regenerate limbs to sell blood.”

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou gasped in shock—what a ruthless man.

While not as valuable as phoenix blood, the blood of a Unity cultivator was still highly prized.

“Qin Haoran sold blood so many times that he became very proficient in regeneration. When I received this memory, I thought regeneration would be very useful, so I used it for core formation.”

“I never expected Qin Haoran to be so devoted to the Nine Nether Sect, going so far as to sell blood,” the Fifth Elder said, stroking his beard in admiration.

Lu Yang glanced at the Fifth Elder, thinking, “Isn’t it your sect that drove the Nine Nether Sect to such poverty?”

Li Haoran’s expression grew even more peculiar. “He sold blood before he became the Sect Leader.”

“Then why was he selling blood?”

“To earn money for prostitutes.”

“A Unity cultivator didn’t have enough money for prostitutes?”

“He visited them a lot.”
