Chapter 44: 4 lines golden core

Upon moving his gaze over to Dave Lisandris, the elderly man asked while with a slight frown on his face, “Dave, it has been quite a number of years since I last saw you, haven’t I? How’s your injury coming along? Didn’t you obtain a tier 3 recovery pill from the sect master during the last time I saw you? Why is your cultivation still at level 10 foundation establishment realm after all these years have passed?”

Right after the elderly man finished speaking, Dave Lisandris immediately stood up and cupped his hands at the elderly man, then said while with a calm look on his face, “Ancestor, the injury that I suffered 20 years ago during the fight for the flaming serpent spear has already recovered completely. In fact, I recovered completely from the injury just a few months after consuming the tier 3 recovery pill that I obtained from the sect master as a reward.”

“As for the reason that I’m still at level 10 foundation establishment realm after all these years have passed…”

Right upon speaking up to here, Dave paused for a moment before raising his head upward slightly and opening his mouth.

Right after Dave opened his mouth, a small yellow color ball could be seen flying out from Dave’s mouth, followed by flying all the way to the front of the elderly man.

Looking closely at the small yellow ball, one could see that there were 4 relatively large lines on the small yellow ball as it slowly span around while floating within the air.

Shortly after the small yellow ball appeared in the front of the elderly man, Dave continued speaking, “It’s because I have been trying to add another line to my core, so that I could break through to the golden core realm while with a middle-quality golden core.”

“Fortunately, after all these years of hard work, I barely managed to successfully add another line to my golden core during a few months ago!”

Upon seeing the small yellow ball that possessed 4 lines on it right before his eyes, the slight frown that was on the elderly man’s forehead immediately disappeared, followed by a bright smile appearing on the elderly man’s face.

After nodding his head continuously with satisfaction while inspecting onto the small yellow ball before him for what seemed like 10 seconds, the elderly man waved his right hand at the small yellow ball, causing the small yellow ball to fly back into Dave’s mouth.

Right as the small yellow back entered into Dave’s mouth, the elderly man finally opened his mouth to speak, “Very good, you have not disappoint me, nor the sect master. I’m sure the sect master will be overjoyed when she finds out that Bright Moon Sect will soon be able to have another golden core realm cultivator, and furthermore, a golden core realm cultivator who possesses a 4 lines golden core!”

“So, how’s your preparations with breaking through to the golden core realm coming along?”

“Do you think that you will be able to break through to the golden core realm within two or three years’ time?”

Upon hearing what his ancestor had just said to him, although Dave was feeling a little puzzled as to why his ancestor would ask him if he would be able to break through to golden core realm within two or three years’ time, as it was normal knowledge that…

Right after a foundation establishment realm cultivator had formed a new line on their golden core, it would typically take at least 5 or 6 years for a level 10 foundation establishment realm cultivator to prepare for breaking through to the golden core realm if they want to have a high chance at successfully breaking through to the golden core realm…

Dave didn’t think too much about it and immediately replied, “Ancestor, my preparations with breaking through to the golden core realm is coming along just fine.”

“I have already managed to successfully gather most of the necessary items that I would be needing when breaking through to the golden core realm, except for a few tier 2 pills that I’m intending on concocting myself, which I will do so once I have acquired all of the medicinal herbs that are needed to make those pills.”

“If I were to take a guess, I should be able to have those tier 2 pills concocted within a year’s time.”

“Since I won’t be having trouble with any of the cultivation resources that I am going to have to use when breaking through to the golden core realm…”

“I should be able to start breaking through to the golden core realm immediately after I am done refining my current golden core and filling the golden core to the brim with spiritual energy.”

“So… it should take me about 4 or 5 years’ time until I attempt at breaking through to the golden core realm.”

Right after Dave finished speaking, a slight look of disappointment could be seen flashing through the elderly man’s face, however, since everyone within the conference room was at least of foundation establishment realm, and their attention were all fixed onto the elderly man, despite the look of disappointment only appearing within the elderly man’s face for a split second, everyone still managed to catch it.

“4 or 5 years’ time, huh…?”

“Well, in any case, when you are intending on breaking through, you can come over to Bright Moon Sect and look for me first. I won’t mind taking out a bit of my time to help protecting you while you are attempting at breaking through to the golden core realm.”

“Here, as a reward for attaining 4 lines golden core, you can have this bottle of foundation establishment pill.”

“There are 3 pills within this bottle, and all 3 of those foundation establishment pills are top-quality pills.”

“Since your daughter is already at level 10 of energy refining realm, I’m sure that those pills should be of some help to her.”
