Chapter 246: Pro-Cultivation Faction And Anti-Cultivation Faction

“Sect Master, my… my Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation is coming.”

Wang Zhixing and the other three Peak Masters were stunned, at a loss of what to do.

They were already at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm, and after listening to five lectures from Qin Chuan, their comprehension of the Heavenly Dao was almost ready.

“Peak Masters, don’t panic. Focus on transcending the tribulation.” Qin Chuan spoke.

Everyone arrived at the main peak’s training hall.

At this moment, small dark clouds appeared above Wang Zhixing and the other Peak Masters.

These were their tribulation clouds.

The tribulation clouds constantly expanded, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

A few minutes later, the cotton-sized clouds expanded to span several kilometers.

The four people’s tribulation clouds connected together and enveloped the entire sky above the sect. The light suddenly dimmed. Thunder rolled, and lightning flashed continuously.

From afar, it looked like the sky had collapsed.

Instantly, all the disciples ran out.

This was not the first time that heavenly tribulation had happened here.

Previously, when Qin Chuan was in the land of legacy, Zhao Xuanxuan and Ma Qingxue, as people with souls, had already reached the Golden Core Realm.

The scale of their heavenly tribulation at that time was much greater than Wang Zhixing and the Peak Masters.

Presently, in the main peak’s training hall, Wang Zhixing and the other Peak Masters sat cross-legged on the ground. True Qi circulated around their bodies, and they were prepared to transcend the tribulation.

Soon, the first bolt of lightning descended.

The tribulation lightning that was as thick as a water tank and released a terrifying energy fluctuation. It was as if the heavens and earth were splitting apart. They instantly enveloped Wang Zhixing and the others.

Boom!

The deafening thunder shook the entire sect.

Wang Zhixing and company had safely withstood the first bolt of tribulation lightning.

Then, the second, third, fourth…

There were a total of nine strikes in the Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation, and each one was stronger than the previous one. Moreover, there was no pause in between. After the first ended, the next one immediately followed, not giving anyone time to breathe.

As the last bolt of tribulation lightning fell, the group’s Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation ended.

In the sky, the tribulation clouds dispersed, and light reappeared.

On the ground, the main peak’s training hall was filled with smoke as if it had been bombed by missiles.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on the dust cloud.

Before long, the smoke and dust dissipated, revealing four figures.

Wang Zhixing and the others were charred black like charcoal, and their hair was standing like open umbrellas. They looked rather comical.

There were still fluctuations in their auras, indicating that they had passed the test of the Heavenly Tribulation. The gates of Golden Core were opening up to them.

In the entire process of cultivation, Golden Core was a watershed. Most people believed that one would only be a true cultivator after reaching the Golden Core Realm.

Wang Zhixing and the others held their breaths. Their dantian was like a universe that had just exploded. It was chaotic, but there were some particles emitting starlight gathering together.

The starlight particles continued to merge together, forming a nebula. It continued to compress, forming a planet.

This was the Golden Core.

Accompanying the formation of the Golden Core, Wang Zhixing and the others were like butterflies breaking out of their cocoons. Their bodies emitted a dazzling golden light, and their auras became unprecedentedly powerful.

“Ding! Wang Zhixing has broken through to Golden Core. The host has received 1,000 points and a Bronze Upgrade Card.”

“Ding! Jiang Guihua has broken through to Golden Core. The host has received 1,000 points and a Bronze Upgrade Card.”

…

The four of them had broken through and gave Qin Chuan 4,000 points and 4 Bronze Upgrade Cards.

Although 4,000 points was still far from the 1 billion points required to purchase the Spirit Tree Seed, he needed every little point. Now that there were close to 50,000 sect disciples, if all of them broke through to Golden Core, there would be 100 million points.

Qin Chuan did some calculations. If nothing went wrong, all the disciples would be able to reach the Golden Core realm within two years.

After Wang Zhixing and the others successfully broke through, they immediately stood up and bowed to Qin Chuan.

“Thank you, Sect Master, for teaching us the Dao, and letting us comprehend the Heavenly Dao to the Golden Core realm.”

“This is also because all of you have accumulated enough experience. Without my lecture, all of you would be able to break through very quickly.

“You guys have just broken through. Don’t forget about consolidating your cultivation realms.”

Wang Zhixing and the others bowed. “Yes, we understand.”

After speaking, the four of them bid farewell to Qin Chuan and flew towards their peaks. The other disciples who had come to spectate also returned to their respective peaks.

Qin Chuan stared at the sky as he mumbled, “I wonder what the situation is like outside after a day.”

He returned to the main hall and changed his clothes before leaving the sect.

Just as he stepped out of the sect, the roar of fighter jets could be heard from above.

Currently, because Masefield was continuing to pressure Qin Chuan, the immortal cultivators had become the world’s public enemy.

As a gathering place for immortal cultivators, the Xia Country naturally became a target.

Now, Xia Country had already made preparations for a long-term war. The fighter jets patrolled the airspace, and the battleships patrolled the sea area 24/7.

This situation had more or less affected the people’s lives, but society was still functioning normally.

Now, there are more anti-cultivation groups in the world. Fortunately, they did not appear in Xia Country.

In times of crisis, the cohesiveness of a country was most evident.

The citizens of Xia Country were undoubtedly the most united right now.

Some advocated for all cultivators to set out and dominate the world.

If it was in the past, Qin Chuan would really do this.

With his current strength and the cultivation community, it was not difficult for him to do that.

But, that might not win the hearts of the people. Even if I become boss of the world, if people don’t want to cultivate, everything will be for nothing.

Qin Chuan’s current enemy was Masefield.

Masefield used many of his identities to set off anti-cultivation waves worldwide, blocking the development of immortal cultivation.

Qin Chuan took a look at the news. Although there was a continuous stream of anti-cultivation movements around the world, there were still many people who supported it.

Just like that, the world was divided into two factions regarding cultivation. One was pro-cultivation, while the other was anti-cultivation.

The two factions often clashed, causing many casualties.

From the current situation, the anti-cultivation faction had the advantage.

After all, they were backed by Masefield.

The pro-cultivation faction was self-organized by the masses, and most of them did not have any background. This was a huge disadvantage.

After browsing through the two factions, Qin Chuan glanced at the other content.

Those anti-cultivation countries had formed an alliance and carried out operations to eliminate the monsters and experimental subjects. They had achieved quite a good result.

Initially, everyone thought that after the cultivators left, the monsters and the experimental subjects would retaliate. However, they did not expect that the countries that were anti-cultivation would be so powerful.

This gave the citizens a boost of confidence.

This was the reason why there were more and more anti-cultivation groups.

Qin Chuan had already expected such a situation.

He knew very well that Masefield could continue pressuring by making immortal cultivators obsolete. If Masefield could prove that humans could defeat the monsters themselves, immortal cultivators would not only be rendered useless but would also be feared by society.

But, Qin Chuan wasn’t worried at all.

He knew that this situation was only temporary.

The Space Parasite Beasts were highly intelligent creatures.

Because of the appearance of Qin Chuan and the other disciples, they were truly frightened.

Many monsters sank into the deep seas, waiting for an opportunity.

Only a few monsters remained on land.

Therefore, the result that the anti-cultivation alliance had achieved thus far was too exaggerated.

Some of the citizens were still relatively clear-headed as they published essays online to analyze these reasons.

But such essays were very disadvantageous for Masefield. They were not allowed to appear. The relevant articles quickly disappeared from the Internet and various media.

After reading the news, Qin Chuan sneered, “Masefield, if you want to fight with me that badly, I will give you a gift. I wonder how you’ll accept it.”

In the blink of an eye, Qin Chuan arrived at the Devil Sea.
