Chapter 260: Four Methods to Create a Golden Elixir

“What is Fellow Daoist He doing?”

“Could it be that forming a Three-Law Golden Core isn’t enough for him?”

“Does he want to add another Law?”

Li Fan, who had been guarding from the side, couldn't help but mutter to himself when he saw this scene.

“If he succeeds, it will naturally be a joyous occasion for all.”

“I just fear that his greed will lead to failure instead.”

However, at this point, it was the most crucial moment for Core Formation, and Li Fan couldn't forcibly interrupt He Zhenghao's Core Formation process.

He could only wait patiently.

“I wonder what Fellow Daoist He’s fourth Law for Core Formation is?”

“When I came with him before, I didn't hear him mention it. This matter shouldn't be hidden from me.”

“So, does that mean he gained new insights during the Core Formation process?”

Li Fan pondered to himself.

Li Fan didn't have to wait long.

Soon, he knew the answer.

Just half a day later, the three layers of seabed faults below suddenly shook violently as if an underwater earthquake had occurred.

It wasn't the reappearance of Earth Vein or Mountain and River power.

Instead…

Li Fan’s expression hardened, and he looked solemn.

He raised his guard, staring intently downwards.

He saw that as the intensity of the shaking continuously increased,

cracks rapidly appeared on the seabed and mountains, continuously extending and expanding.

In just a moment, the hundred-mile-long three layers of seabed faults were already covered in cracks.

It looked as if they could shatter into pieces at any moment.

The shaking was still intensifying.

It was as if…

something was about to break out from beneath!

Dull cracking sounds came from the deep sea.

Rumbling without end.

Li Fan turned to look at He Zhenghao, but his expression hadn't changed in the slightest.

It seemed what he had been waiting for was this thing hidden deep beneath the sea abyss.

Li Fan pondered for a moment and made no further moves.

Just to be safe, after activating the Trail Concealing Talisman, he kept his distance and watched the situation unfold.

The earth roared, and the seabed collapsed.

The three layers of seabed faults also began to crumble with a boom.

Just as this wonder was almost completely destroyed from the inside out,

the thing buried deep within finally revealed itself.

A majestic and spectacular three-tiered palace complex, stretching for dozens of miles, suddenly appeared before Li Fan.

All the buildings exuded an ancient and weathered Aura.

On the highest building, the three characters “Grand Origin Hall” could vaguely be seen.

“This is? The appearance of a Sect ruin?”

Li Fan was somewhat surprised because he had never heard of such a large-scale ruin in his previous lives.

“Could it be that He Zhenghao’s Core Formation triggered a Law anomaly, which then destroyed the Seal of the ruin?”

As Li Fan speculated, the earth continued to rumble.

He could also hear creaking and colliding sounds.

“Boom!”

It was as if something had snapped with a loud bang.

The seabed completely collapsed.

And the palace complex, led by the Grand Origin Hall, slowly rose in Li Fan’s shocked gaze.

“Not good!”

Li Fan’s expression changed slightly.

Watching the massive building complex about to crash upwards from below,

he no longer hesitated and was about to grab He Zhenghao and quickly retreat from the area covered by the building complex.

“Fellow Daoist, you don’t need to worry about me! I have my own way to avoid danger!”

Just then, He Zhenghao’s voice transmission sounded in his ear.

Li Fan didn't feign politeness; his figure flickered repeatedly.

In an instant, he escaped the dangerous area.

When he looked back, he couldn't help but feel a surge of worry for He Zhenghao.

He saw him sitting upright, poised above the ascending palace complex.

When the massive structure, carrying an irresistible force, was about to crash into him,

he neither dodged nor avoided, his face filled with joy, and he declared loudly: “Heaven helps me!”

With the Array Diagram phantom appearing above his head, He Zhenghao faced the flying building complex and continuously formed hand Seals.

Yellow and blue colors instantly filled the air.

They formed a giant net, blocking the ascending palace.

But in just a moment, this giant net was torn to shreds.

In front of such a massive building complex, it was like paper, unable to even block for a moment.

However, with the giant net as a buffer, He Zhenghao also avoided the fate of being directly struck and killed.

Amidst the scattered yellow and blue energy, He Zhenghao spat out a large mouthful of blood and rapidly retreated.

As he left, he stretched out his hands and lightly grasped.

It was as if he had caught something from within that building complex.

Once He Zhenghao was out of danger, Li Fan quickly went forward to check his injuries.

He himself, however, was completely unconcerned, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth,

and staring at the continuously rising building, his eyes growing brighter.

“Can mountains and rivers also ascend?”

“Indeed, they can!”

Then, his face was filled with ecstatic joy.

“The Law of Ascension, this is the Law of Mountain and River Ascension…”

“Earth Vein, Mountain and River, Hidden Abyss, Ascension!”

“With the Four Laws complete, my Core is formed!”

He Zhenghao let out a burst of wild laughter.

Before his words finished, a fierce fluctuation erupted from his body.

Forcing Li Fan to retreat far away.

The yellow color representing the Law of Earth Vein.

The cyan-blue color of the Law of Mountain and River.

The deep black color of the Law of Hidden Abyss.

The purple-white color of the Law of Ascension.

All appeared around He Zhenghao.

Forming a colorful energy vortex, merging and intertwining.

With the Mountain and River Vein Array Diagram as the core, they continuously converged.

…

Li Fan, watching this magnificent scene from the side, couldn't help but feel some emotion.

“I didn’t expect Fellow Daoist He to actually succeed.”

“Four-Law Golden Core cultivators are probably very rare in the entire Congyun Sea.”

“From now on, his status will likely be vastly different.”

“This Law of Ascension, like the Law of Hidden Abyss, subtly aligns with the Mountain River Hidden Dragon Skill he cultivates…”

“I didn’t expect the Breakthrough location he chose to actually contain such a ruin.”

“This is He Zhenghao’s Opportunity.”

In his Divine Sense, the continuously rising palace complex was ascending faster and faster.

It was about to surface from the sea.

Only…

Li Fan was slightly startled.

Because the size of the building complex also seemed to be continuously shrinking.

“It’s not an illusion…”

“In that case.”

Li Fan instantly thought of something.

In his twelfth life, Li Fan had once heard.

In Anchor Year 22, in the northwest sea area of the Congyun Sea, an Immortal Cave ascended from the seabed and then flew directly towards the direction of Nine Mountains Continent.

Many curious Cultivators followed to investigate.

However, they all went and never returned, their whereabouts unknown.

“So it was that Immortal Cave?”

Li Fan felt a sudden realization.

“I wonder what Sect’s ruin it is, that it can freely change size and fly like a Magic Treasure.”

“Hmm… perhaps I can spread the news and let other Cultivators explore the way for me.”

“Preserved so perfectly, and the Sect’s base is so miraculous. It will surely attract many Cultivators to investigate.”

Li Fan subconsciously began to scheme in his mind.

Not long after, a special fluctuation interrupted his thoughts.

In He Zhenghao’s Dantian, a Golden Core was about to form.

On the surface of the Golden Core, the appearance of an Array Diagram faintly emerged.

His Aura instantly surged.

He Zhenghao, Core Formation successful.

At the same time, a large amount of cultivation feedback also appeared synchronously in Li Fan’s Dantian.
