"Atlas! I have finally formed the 2nd core inside my dantian!" Lian Chen finished cultivating, and was proud that he finally officially hit the Core Formation, Low Stage.
"I wonder how strong I will be with both of these cores in my dantian." Filled with anticipation, Lian Chen contemplated the potential power he could wield with the combined strength of the 2 cores residing within his dantian.
Lian Chen decided to make his way towards the training ground of the Inner Court, together with Xiao Huan, eager to conduct an experiment using a training dummy as his target.
At the training ground, there was no one as it was still early and thus no one was there to practice.
The absence of others allowed Lian Chen to have the training ground all by himself, giving him the perfect opportunity to explore the potential of his combined cores without any distractions.
These training dummies are made to withstand blows from cultivators from the Core Formation Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage.
Even cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage find it challenging to inflict damage on the dummies, as they are infused with a unique substance that enables them to regenerate.
With the two cores spinning within his dantian and his qi infused into his fist, Lian Chen unleashed a powerful punch upon the training dummy, striking it with all his might.
"What?!" Lian Chen exclaimed in disbelief as he witnessed the result of his punch.
Despite the training dummy's reputation for being resistant to damage, Lian Chen's single strike had sent it flying, causing severe damage to its body. Almost half of the dummy's form was obliterated in the process.
Suddenly, Lian Chen was overcome by an overwhelming wave of dizziness and fatigue, causing him to sway and almost lose consciousness.
The immense power he had unleashed seemed to have taken a toll on his body, pushing him to the brink of collapse.
"Xiao… Xiao… Xiao Huan… Take me back…" Lian Chen mustered up his remaining strength to instruct Xiao Huan, before falling unconscious.
As Lian Chen was unconscious, the Cloudburst Immortal Sect made their way into the hall palace of the Buddha Benevolent Sect.
The hall was adorned with intricate carvings and shimmering golden accents, a testament to the sect's grandeur and spiritual significance.
Leading the Cloudburst Immortal Sect was the Sect Leader Wei Fengyun. His robes billowed gracefully as he walked, releasing an air of authority and power. Behind him, were 3 esteemed elders from the Cloudburst Immortal Sect, their expression serious and focused.
As they entered, many disciples of the Buddha Benevolent Sect looked towards them with a mixture of curiosity and apprehension. Whispers filled the air as the Cloudburst Immortal Sect showed their presence throughout the room.
Meanwhile, the disciples of the Cloudburst Immortal Sect, the top 5 inner disciples, walked with confidence and purpose behind the 3 elders.
The names of the top 5 inner disciples are called Feng Yan, Liu Mei, Lian Feng, Wang Chen and Liang Tao. With Liang Tao being the strongest, and Feng Yan occupied the 5th place in the ranking.
"Welcome to the Buddha Benevolent Sect, Sect Leader Wei Fengyun!" Gong Xuanyan exclaimed and clasped his fist towards Wei Fengyun.
"It's always good to be here, Sect Leader Gong Xuanyan. To always win… HAHAHAHA" Wei Fengyun responded with a sinister tone.
"We will never know what will happen." Gong Xuanyan replied with a hint of frustration.
"Well, we shall see what unfolds on the martial stage tomorrow, and the results will speak for themselves," Wei Fengyun responded dismissively, paying no attention to Gong Xuanyan's anger.
"Disciples! Make your way towards the resting room!" Wei Fengyun instructed his disciples, leading them to the designated area.
