Lingyunzi and the other five looked at Qingyunzi in shock. In their impression, Qingyunzi rarely lost his composure.

And now, he was so flustered over something called the Primal Chaos Golden Core?

What exactly was this Primal Chaos Golden Core?

"Senior Brother, that's enough," Little Junior Sister tapped the table to remind him.

"Haha!" Qingyunzi laughed heartily for a while before finally stopping, and then he gestured, "Sit, sit, don't be so formal."

Bilingzi said irritably, "Who's being formal? Just tell us, what's the deal with Zhang Yang's Primal Chaos Golden Core? What's so special about it that makes you act so abnormal?"

Qingyunzi glared at Bilingzi before speaking, "You should all know that when a Dao Seed forms into a Golden Core, it already has the embryonic form of a great path, right? For example, when you, the second brother, formed your Golden Core, it had a sword shape, and you followed the path of the sword. As for the rest of you, it should be a similar situation."

The six nodded. It was precisely because of this situation that they were surprised by Zhang Yang's Golden Core.

They just didn't know whether this situation was good or bad, so they didn't show it.

"The grade of a Golden Core determines the future height of one's path," Qingyunzi said solemnly. "The lowest grade, the Third-grade Golden Core, is murky inside with no shape, and is mockingly called a 'Whiteboard Golden Core' in the cultivation world. Starting with a Whiteboard Golden Core is already a loss, and achieving any results in the future would undoubtedly be very difficult.

A Second-grade Golden Core is like yours. When forming the Golden Core, it already has the embryonic form of a great path inside, so it's also called a Great Path Golden Core. Although a Great Path Golden Core is much better than a Whiteboard Golden Core, because the path is already fixed, it can only be classified as second-grade. For example, your sword path Golden Core allows you to advance rapidly in sword cultivation, but makes other paths slow.

A First-grade Golden Core is also called a Hunyuan Golden Core, which is versatile and can adapt to multiple paths.

Hehe, I have a Hunyuan Golden Core, so I can choose to cultivate the sword path or the alchemy path as I wish..."

Lingyunzi and the others looked at the smug Qingyunzi, with a hint of nostalgia on their faces.

This was the senior brother they met back in the day!

Now, Qingyunzi was just a sect master, far removed from the senior brother they once knew.

"Senior Brother, you're amazing!" Little Junior Sister looked at him with admiration.

Bilingzi gave Little Junior Sister a fierce glare, then turned her gaze back to Qingyunzi and asked, "You still haven't told us about the Primal Chaos Golden Core!"

Qingyunzi coughed twice, put away his smug expression, and continued, "Although the grade of a Golden Core is important, it's not the true determinant of ultimate achievement.

In history, there have been Whiteboard Golden Cores that achieved great results and ascended to immortality.

Similarly, there have been Hunyuan Golden Cores that failed because they were greedy for too many paths.

In contrast, Great Path Golden Cores have a single path, and each one strives with all its might, achieving very high accomplishments in the end.

But the Primal Chaos Golden Core is different."

At this point, Qingyunzi's expression became conflicted. "The Primal Chaos Golden Core is just a legend, and I don't know all its peculiarities. But just one of its characteristics is enough to show its uniqueness.

This characteristic is that the Primal Chaos Golden Core is not afraid of any path's power, nor is it tainted by Spiritual Qi, Demonic Qi, or Devilish Qi. It can refine all path powers for its own use, whether it's Spiritual Qi, Demonic Qi, Devilish Qi, or the Power of the Nine Netherworlds... the Primal Chaos Golden Core absorbs it all."

"Ah!"

Lingyunzi and the others were extremely shocked, looking at Qingyunzi in disbelief.

Qingyunzi said meaningfully, "You should all know that if we are tainted by Demonic Qi or Devilish Qi, we need to refine and expel it. If it remains in us, it will pollute our Golden Core and corrode our Nascent Soul and Divine Soul, ultimately causing us to fall from the immortal path. Now you should understand how important the Primal Chaos Golden Core is to us, right?"

"Senior Brother, how can you be sure that Zhang Yang's Golden Core is a Primal Chaos Golden Core?" Lingyunzi asked curiously, "What if his Golden Core is a Whiteboard Golden Core?"

Qingyunzi said irritably, "How can I be sure? Because there are records of a Primal Chaos Golden Core in Azurecloud's history. Otherwise, how could I be sure? Besides, a Whiteboard Golden Core is chaotic inside, but there's actually something in there. And didn't you listen carefully to Zhang Yang's Golden Core? There's nothing in it, it's truly empty. It's precisely because there's nothing that it can accommodate everything!"

"Then how does he cultivate?" Hualingzi asked worriedly.

Qingyunzi shook his head, "I don't know! I'm not a Primal Chaos Golden Core, how would I know how to cultivate it? His path can only be found by himself.

However, the growth of a Primal Chaos Golden Core requires countless cultivation resources and countless treasures, that's for sure.

Once he grows, I can finally be free.

Then I'll definitely travel the world..."

Little Junior Sister volunteered, "Senior Brother, I'll go with you then!"

Qingyunzi laughed heartily, "Of course, no problem!"

Bilingzi snorted coldly and suddenly said, "Senior Brother, after hearing you talk, it seems your Hunyuan Golden Core isn't that impressive! The way you were bragging just now, I thought the Hunyuan Golden Core was invincible!"

She got up and left.

Qingyunzi stood there dumbfounded, unable to speak for a long time.

The others also exchanged glances and left one by one.

Little Junior Sister was the last to leave, encouraging him, "Senior Sister is just like that, Senior Brother, don't mind her. Now that you have four hundred thousand Spirit Stones, you can relax a bit, so hurry and get things done!"

Qingyunzi watched Little Junior Sister leave, tears streaming down his face, "The youngest is still the most considerate!"

His figure disappeared in an instant.

Meanwhile, the owner of the Primal Chaos Golden Core was in a heated confrontation with his junior sister.

"This is my place, you need to leave."

"I won't, I want to live here. If you dare bully me, I'll tell Master!"

Zhang Yang returned home after a meeting, only to find his house had been taken over. Situ Mingyue and her maid had already occupied his small courtyard.

Then, an argument ensued.

Zhang Yang said irritably, "I spent years building this small courtyard, and you just want to take it over? Let me tell you, no way. Besides, I'm the senior brother, and you dare disrespect me? Don't forget, it was I who brought you to Azurecloud."

Situ Mingyue chuckled, "I'm the junior sister, you should give way to me! Besides, I paid a million Spirit Stones to join Azurecloud... you just wanted my money, don't think I don't know?

Let's cut the nonsense, this small courtyard is nice, can I buy it? Name your price, is a hundred thousand Spirit Stones enough?"

Zhang Yang snorted coldly, "Is this about Spirit Stones? Look at the fence of this small courtyard, I've carved Rune Patterns on it to repel mosquitoes and pests; inside the room, I've carved calming Rune Patterns to aid in cultivation; the windows also have Rune Patterns for a gentle breeze; the floor has Rune Patterns for warmth in winter and coolness in summer... Besides, I've been maintaining this courtyard for ten years, and with property prices rising so fast, you think you can buy it for a hundred thousand Spirit Stones? I've lived here for so many years, I have deep feelings for this place!"

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "pawread.com".

"So?" Situ Mingyue looked at Zhang Yang.

"Add more money!" Zhang Yang said confidently.
