Chapter 480 - Fighting Golden Cores
Perfected Being Cang Lang broke out in cold sweat.
He was at late-stage Golden Core and yet, even after releasing his Golden Core phenomenon, he merely matched a single secret skill released by Su Zimo!
This was the first time that Perfected Being Cang Lang realized that the inexperienced and arrogant scholar of the yesteryears had surpassed his control and expectations.
Back then at the sect competition, Su Zimo merely took advantage of the situation to suppress and shame him using his identity as the number one Weapon Refinement Master of Great Zhou.
But now, this scholar was standing toe to toe with him in a battle!
The difference between the two of them was almost an entire major realm!
In the past, Perfected Being Cang Lang cultivated to six meridian Foundation Establishment before forming his core. He managed to succeed while forming a Golden Core phenomenon of his own.
At that point, he felt that his potential was not inferior to others and at the very least, he was among one of the top few Golden Cores withint he territory of Great Zhou.
Su Zimo channeled his bloodline and the sound of a tsunami tide echoed.
Swoosh!
He did not even look at the incoming rod and slashed in reverse, meeting the attack with another attack as he released his incomparable Countercurrent stance!
The pupils of the Southern Mountains Sect cultivator constricted and his heart skipped a beat in shock.
His motions slowed down for a moment due to the effect on his mental state by the saber force.
“Pfft!”
Flashes of blood appeared.
That man was cut into two from the middle and his organs and intestines spilled out, giving off a nauseating stench.
Pshew!
A streak of light burst through the void and arrived instantly.
Without turning to look, Su Zimo raised his gigantic seal and repelled the incoming flying sword.
At the same time, he shuddered and slowed down.
Although Xuan Yi and the others held back a portion of the Golden Cores, there were still more than a hundred Golden Cores who attacked Su Zimo at the same time, causing flying swords, spirit arts and talismans to fill the skies with resplendent lights!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Spinning the gigantic seal with his left hand, Su Zimo released the Sea Calming five stances right his right and took on the incoming flying swords and spirit arts.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
He retreated repeatedly and his organs were immensely shaken, almost shifted out of position even!
“Pfft!”
Su Zimo spat out a huge mouthful of blood.
Sima Zhi roared in laughter. “Su Zimo, you’re nothing without that secret skill from earlier!”
“Fufu.”
Perfected Being Cang Lang sneered, “Even if you can kill early or mid-stage Golden Cores with your connate spirit weapon, you are still a Foundation Establishment Cultivator after all. There’s no way you can withstand the might of late-stage or perfected Golden Cores!”
“You really think you can kill me with those skills of yours?”
Perfected Being Cang Lang continued laughing coldly.
Su Zimo was unmoved.
Perfected Being Cang Lang was not wrong.
Even if he was at Extreme Foundation Establishment and had the support of the Coiling Dragon Seal, in terms of strength, he could only match against mid-stage Golden Cores at best and he wouldn’t be able to deal with those at late-stage.
In that previous attack, a few perfected Golden Cores had attacked and Su Zimo was injured on the spot, unable to endure it.
However, he was someone who did both immortality and demonic cultivation.
Even without taking on his demon form, Su Zimo’s physique and bloodline was still enough to crush all other cultivators of the same realm!
Even perfected Golden Cores would not be able to escape death if Su Zimo closed in on them.
He was invincible in melee combat!
If anyone else had received the injuries he took, it would definitely affect their combat strength.
However, Su Zimo’s physique was way too strong and his regeneration capabilities were shocking.
After consuming the Blood Flesh Elixir made of dragon flesh in the Human Emperor’s Palace, he attained greater mastery of the Orifice Clearing section and was only a step away from condensing a demon Inner Core.
Within a couple of breaths, Su Zimo’s injuries were already mostly recovered.
“Fufufufu!”
Smiling, he stood up and his tendons and bones sounded at the same time. Not only did his aura not drop after getting injured, it was even getting stronger and the glint in his eyes intensified – he was like an ancient demon that wanted to devour people!
