Chapter 97: New Mission

His cultivation base had successfully broken through, allowing Li Ming to smoothly enter the Golden Core realm.

As for the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art, he had also successfully entered its eighth level.

Moreover, after experiencing the tempering of heavenly lightning, his physical body had been greatly strengthened. At this moment, the strength of his physical body had reached an unprecedented level!

Feeling the changes in his body, Li Ming was delighted.

It was not easy for him to reach this far. To him, everything simply felt like a dream.

After all, not long ago, he was still a person who practiced and dutifully grinded every day for even a single entry just so that he could increase his talent. In the first three years he had been in the Divine Will Sect, he had barely made any progress.

He had initially believed that he was simply not fated for cultivation. However, he eventually came to obtain high-quality entries one after the other. He then successfully reached the body cultivation foundation establishment realm, and now even the golden core realm!

He had now properly stepped into the world of cultivation!

While some people claimed that the foundation establishment realm was the first step into the world of cultivation, the golden core realm was where it was truly at!

A foundation establishment cultivator only had a lifespan of 150 years, which was only slightly longer than a mortal. It was not really outside the scope of mortals.

However, after reaching the golden core realm, the lifespan of a cultivator could reach 300 years!

This was a huge difference!

“A golden core cultivator is indeed different.”

“However, I’m afraid that it will be difficult to improve further.”

Li Ming frowned. The path of body cultivation became more and more difficult the further he went.

As he rose higher and higher in cultivation level, the more time it would take to make another breakthrough.

Moreover, he was cultivating both his body and qi, so one could only imagine the time it would take for him to make further progress.

Although he had obtained many entries that aided his talent and allowed him to increase his cultivation at a faster pace, that did not change the fact that it was still harder to do so.

He was aware of this.

“Congratulations. I did not expect you to go from the perfected level of the foundation establishment realm to the golden core realm in such a short period of time.”

“You truly are incredibly talented.”

“Indeed, the fact that you are also talented in pill refinement no longer feels as unbelievable.”

The few consecrators looked at him and went forward to congratulate him. Their faces were filled with envy.

After all, this was the first time they had seen such an all-rounded genius!

Not only was he a cultivator of both body and qi, but he was also a fifth-grade pill refiner!

And now, he had completed his core formation in an extremely short period of time!

He had even managed to withstand the heavenly lightning with his bare body.

Only body cultivators would dare to do such a thing, right?

Thinking about it carefully, Li Ming had only been muddleheaded for the first three years and had not made any progress.

Now, in less than a year, he had directly advanced from the qi refinement realm to the golden core realm!

This speed was truly incomparable to ordinary people!

“You’re too kind. I’m just lucky. This place is rich in spiritual qi and is simply very suitable for cultivation.”

Li Ming took out some clothes from his storage bag, put them on, and then turned around.

Seeing that the cave abode had taken some damage, he felt a little embarrassed.

After all, this place was specially made by the sect master.

“Is the sect master still in seclusion?”

Li Ming looked at Fan Shuang’s cave abode. Seeing that there was no

movement coming trom it, he grew curious.

The nascent soul realm was already the realm of the strongest in the continent, and the sect master had already reached the peak of it. Now, she was only one step away from breaking through to the next realm!

He wondered if the pill he had refined would really work.

“That’s right. The sect master’s cultivation is profound. And this time, she’s trying to break through the barrier. Although she has the help of the pill you refined and has a higher chance of success, it will still be very difficult for her to succeed.”

“She probably still needs more time.”

The great elder told Li Ming. Once the sect master completed her breakthrough, the Divine Will Sect would definitely be able to come out on top in the sect competition.

It would become inevitable.

This was an important time. The sect had many matters to attend to. This was also a period where the sect needed manpower.

“Li Ming, now that you have entered the golden core realm, as a consecrator and chief guest of the sect, you will have to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the sect.”

“The sect master is still in seclusion. There is an urgent mission that requires an elder to lead a team.”

“Are you willing to take on this mission?”

He generally would not reject any mission given to him.

However, he had only just entered the golden core realm. He was still not used to his current level of strength, and wanted some time to consolidate his current cultivation.

[System Entry Options]

[Accept Mission: You will receive a purple entry after completing the mission!]

[Reject Mission: You will receive a blue entry!]

Li Ming was speechless when he saw the options that his system had presented him with.

With this being the case, was there even a need to think twice?

He would naturally accept the mission!

Although he already had a few good purple entries to support him, purple entries were still rare. As such, the more he had of them, the better!

If he really could not use them, he could simply fuse or synthesize them with other entries.

“Accomplishing matters for the sect is naturally a part of my duty”

“Great elder, what is the mission this time?”

Li Ming looked at the great elder curiously.

The great elder replied, “The mission this time concerns mine at the borders of the Divine Will Sect’s territory. Demons plan to invade this mind. It is located right on the border that connects to the Endless Sky Holy Land. They will also send people there.”

“The mine basically belongs to the two sects.”

“But because of the sect competition, you will need to remain wary of the Endless Sky Holy Land.”

After the great elder finished speaking, Li Ming had a general understanding of the situation.

Snatching the resources in the mine and eliminating the demons made it the perfect mission where he could fight and train himself.

As for the people from the Endless Sky Holy Land?

If it were the trash from the Heavenly Demon Sect, then Li Ming would not have thought much and simply eliminated them whenever he encountered them.

However, since the other party was from the Endless Sky Holy Land, as long as they did not take the initiative to stir up trouble with him, he naturally would not let them be.

“As for the members of your team, you are now a consecrator, so you can choose them for yourself.”

Li Ming felt relieved after hearing the great elder’s words.

Spirit Will Hall.

Li Ming left the back of the mountain and headed straight for the Spirit Will Hall.

When it came to choosing people to join him on the mission, Li Ming immediately thought of those who he was familiar with.

Chen Qingke and Lu Lan.

After all, Li Ming was honestly not too familiar with the other disciples in the sect.

It would be enough to let the two help him look for more team members.

The rewards for this mission were generous. For the two of them, it would naturally be worth it.

But for Li Ming, that was not necessary.

After all, he was a consecrated elder of the sect, as well as a chief guest. He did not have to worry about resources at all.

With Chen Qingke and Lu Lan’s help, the team was quickly formed.

Their destination was the border. More specifically, the location of their mission was the core area of the border between the Heavenly Southern Region and the Heavenly Northern Region, the Endless Sky Holy Land.

Along the way, Li Ming asked around curiously.

He did not know much about the major sects in the Eastern Continent.

Although he had come into contact with the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Three Gods Mountains before, he did not know much about them.

As for the Endless Sky Holy Land, this was the first time he had heard of it.

“Lu Lan, what is the situation of the Endless Sky Holy Land?”

“The Endless Sky Holy Land is not inferior to the Divine Will Sect. It is also a relatively neutral sect.”

“Of course, they are also participating in the sect competition. Moreover, they are always ranked in the top three in every sect competition!”

“They are the most powerful competitors of the Divine Will Sect.”

“I heard that there’s a young prodigy in their generation who’s extremely talented. He’s even stronger than Junior Sister Chen.”

“However, I don’t know how they would compare to you.”

Hearing Lu Lan’s words, Li Ming grew more curious about the Endless Sky

Holy Land..
