My Golden Core is a Star, do you call this cultivating?

Chapter 120: You Are Not a Supreme

In the Xingyuan Demon Cave,
Chen Huan was extremely anxious.

Several Supreme beings were closing in, among them, a Grand Supreme.

"We’re done for, we can’t escape!"

Chen Huan looked at Qi Yuan, feeling an instant of daze from him.

"They can’t escape; I… am Supreme now." Qi Yuan’s eyes reflected the vicissitudes of life, as if he had experienced countless years.

The enlightenment had ended, and he had returned to the game reality.

"Big Brother… you’ve become Supreme?" Chen Huan was astonished, then overjoyed.

Looking at Qi Yuan, he felt he had become even more unfathomable.

Just moments ago, he was still a myth on land, how did he suddenly become Supreme?

Had he comprehended the origin?

Awakened his origin divine ability?
"Now, it’s time to complete the third step of my plan, to slay the invaders!" Qi Yuan was about to implement his meticulous plan.

"You’ve just broken through to Supreme, it’s impossible. They have a Grand Supreme, whose origin divine ability has reached the engraved realm!" Mentioning engraving, Chen Huan’s eyes showed a hint of fear, "An engraved origin divine ability, even if flaws are found, cannot be defeated!"

What Chen Huan said, Qi Yuan also knew.

While fleeing with Ning Tao and mastering the Human Demon Path, he learned more about Supreme beings.

Just entering the Supreme realm, the origin divine ability is at the terminal stage.

At the terminal stage, the control over the origin divine ability is not very stable, and it consumes a lot.

Mid-stage Supremes have their origin divine ability at the meticulous stage.

They can control the origin divine ability meticulously, not wasting a single bit of it.

As for late-stage Grand Supremes, they have reached the legendary engraved stage.

Their origin divine ability is engraved in their body and soul.

Without even moving, the origin divine ability forms on its own.

The gap between a Grand Supreme and an early-stage Supreme is vast.

Even through attrition, they can exhaust an early-stage Supreme’s origin divine ability.

"Engraved... indeed very powerful." Qi Yuan grinned, "But... I haven’t killed anyone for tens of thousands of years, I’m already starving."

In the Grand Portal, Qi Yuan had sat for countless years.

He had forgotten the passage of time, forgotten himself.

It had indeed been many years since he last killed anyone.

"Big Brother, did you forget? We just killed a Supreme and quite a few mythic beings!" Chen Huan felt his Big Brother was unreliable.

Sometimes profound, sometimes not.

He didn’t want Qi Yuan to be unreliable now.

Their conversation, though seemingly long, took less than two breaths.

The terrifying aura descended completely.

Six Supremes stood in the air, surrounding Qi Yuan and Chen Huan.

The Purple Daoist’s eyes were deep, looking at the two with surprise: "How did you two kill Supreme Yu Bai?"

The Purple Daoist spoke, his eyes fixed on Qi Yuan.

He ignored Chen Huan completely.

The others also looked at Chen Huan and Qi Yuan with astonishment.

Yu Bai’s strength was well-known. Even two Supremes couldn’t kill him quickly.

But these two did it. Did they have a secret?
The six had their own thoughts.

Qi Yuan’s gaze fell on the Purple Daoist, his eyes sharp as knives. He pondered, "Was it you who sent Wu Tong to ambush me?

Who gave you the courage… to ambush me?"

Before a fight, one mustn’t lose momentum!

Even village dogs bark before a fight, right?

This Purple Daoist had inexplicably ambushed him; there must be a story.

The others looked at the Purple Daoist upon hearing Qi Yuan’s words.

The Purple Daoist ambushed the Wugui City guardian?

Did he come to the Thousand Cities for a reason?
The Purple Daoist didn’t explain, he waved his sleeve: "Capture the Wugui City guardian alive, kill the other."

Chen Huan was furious: "I am the White Emperor’s disciple, why not capture me alive too?"

The five Supremes attacked Chen Huan.

Five terrifying origin divine abilities fell on him.

If hit, Chen Huan would be severely injured, if not dead.

"Big Brother, save me!" Chen Huan turned into a stream of light, dodging, with five divine abilities close behind.

Qi Yuan’s voice reached Chen Huan’s ears.

Qi Yuan, now stronger, could see the flaws in the five origin divine abilities.

Chen Huan, hearing this, was delighted: "Big Brother, you’re like a father to me!"

Chen Huan, like a god, dodged the five divine abilities but lost an arm in the process.

The six Supremes were shocked.

They didn’t expect Chen Huan to escape their origin divine abilities.

They looked at Qi Yuan with amazement, curiosity, fear, and joy.

Qi Yuan’s voice echoed.

"Now… it’s my turn!"

This world, though a game, felt real. It wasn’t turn-based.

Qi Yuan had held back, waiting to see through their origin divine abilities.

A cultivator’s origin divine ability was their path, revealing their true self.

Attacking from the heart, most likely to induce heart demons.

As Qi Yuan spoke, the five Supremes felt inexplicable fear.

The Purple Daoist stood in the air, eyes narrowed, unafraid.

He had a premonition that the Wugui City guardian could kill the other Supremes but not him.

Which suited him.

The secrets and treasures of Wugui City should be his.

Qi Yuan stepped forward, his robe fluttering.

It turned blood-red.

He stood there, eyes deep as an abyss.

Void Realm Sovereign Heart Demon Induction!

At that moment, Qi Yuan used his origin divine ability.

He looked at a female Supreme.

Lust - Red Lotus Industry Fire!
The female Supreme was engulfed in red flames, her clothes burned away.

"No!" Her left eye showed fear, her right eye showed lust.

A demonic aura spread over her.

She seemed ready to burst.

Qi Yuan’s gaze fell on a white-robed man.

Arrogance - Heaven’s Eye.

Qi Yuan whispered, "I hate pretentious people, only I can be pretentious!"

The white-robed man had a demon crawling on him.

The demon, with a disdainful look, clung to his neck.

The man felt terror, scratching at his neck.

"What is this!"

He hit himself with his origin divine ability, spitting blood.

The origin divine abilities filled with strange auras.

The five Supremes showed fear, greed, lust.

Their hearts were attacked.

The scene turned eerie.

Chen Huan watched in shock and fear, glancing at Qi Yuan.

He wanted to ask.

What are you?
But he didn’t dare.

The scene was too horrifying.

The Wugui City guardian, his Big Brother, acted like a villain.

Divine abilities summoned demons.

Who wouldn’t fear demons?
His Big Brother…

Chen Huan was terrified.

Qi Yuan looked at the five Supremes, smiling wickedly: "You’ve lived too long, wasted too much food. It’s time to die."

As he spoke, the five Supremes’ auras vanished.

Their heart demons erupted, killing them.

They didn’t die naturally, so no demons formed.

Five powerful Supremes died pathetically.

The Purple Daoist smiled: "Your origin divine ability is interesting.

A thought brings forth heart demons; your origin divine ability is invincible among peers."

Heart Demon Induction, formed from sin sources.

This divine ability easily triggered heart demons.

In the Flowwind Realm, cultivators suppressed heart demons with the Heart Demon Technique.

But heart demons always existed.

Dying naturally, demons formed.
This divine ability targeted Flowwind Realm cultivators.

No early-stage Supreme could resist Qi Yuan’s divine ability.

In the Canglan Realm, it wouldn’t be as invincible.

But it would induce heart demons, weakening opponents.

"Looks like you’ve mastered many secrets of Wugui City." The Purple Daoist was thrilled.

The Destiny Tablet revealed the demoness’s burial site in Wugui City.

It contained the source of all demons.

Qi Yuan’s divine ability matched the Tablet’s description.

If he could master the source of all demons and understand heart demons?

Who could challenge him?
He sent Wu Tong to ambush Qi Yuan, plotting Wugui City.

Later, the Tablet revealed the Great Buddha’s burial site in Tianxin Palace.

He spread rumors of the Blood Demon in Tianxin Palace, accidentally hitting the mark.

The Purple Daoist looked at Qi Yuan with greed: "If you pledge loyalty to me and reveal all of Wugui City’s secrets, I’ll make you my disciple and give you the chance to serve me."

Qi Yuan looked at him, puzzled: "Why be my master when you’re not my wife?"

He deduced from his master’s back that she was his wife.

This Purple Daoist, a man, wanted to be his master?

"Gay?" Qi Yuan looked at him in horror, "A gay man near me."

He instinctively wanted to protect himself.

The Purple Daoist was stunned, so was Chen Huan.

What logic was this?

Talking about becoming a disciple, what does it have to do with wives or being gay?

Chen Huan whispered, "Big Brother, why not just accept him?"

He just broke through to Supreme, hadn’t flaunted it yet, didn’t want to die now.

Qi Yuan coldly said: "Even if he knelt to be my dog, he’s too dirty."

Chen Huan widened his eyes.

Big Brother, you’re too bold!

The Purple Daoist’s smile faded: "You don’t want to be my disciple.

You lost the chance to be the true ruler of this realm."

With the Destiny Tablet, he was destined for greatness, even surpassing the Emperor and the Venerable.

"I’m curious, why are you so arrogant?" Qi Yuan looked at him, "You remind me of someone equally arrogant."

That person was the Purple Heavenly Goddess.

The Purple Daoist gave the same feeling as her.

"I have reason to be arrogant.

Your origin divine ability is strong but can only kill early-stage Supremes.

I am a Grand Supreme, my origin divine ability is engraved in my body and soul, flawless.

How can your origin divine ability harm me?"

This was the confidence of a Grand Supreme.

Their origin divine ability was flawless, forming on its own.

"The last arrogant one died by my sword; you… won’t be far off."

Qi Yuan’s eyes turned serious.

Grand Supremes were indeed strong!

Now, Qi Yuan had killed five Supremes, leveling up to 124.

The Purple Daoist was 189.

A gap of over 60 levels.

Qi Yuan had challenged higher levels before, but never this high.

But in a game!

Soloing bosses is fun.

Holding his broken sword, Qi Yuan’s form grew.

"Little Wedding!"

"Together as One!"

Donning blood-red armor, Qi Yuan’s level rose by five.

The gap with the Purple Daoist narrowed.

But still significant.

"Interesting… but soon, all of this will be mine."

The Purple Daoist watched Qi Yuan like a child watching ants.

To him, Qi Yuan growing to dozens of feet, stronger, was like a small ant becoming a big ant.

"Take my sword!"

Strong sword energy spread, carrying endless heart demons.

Early-stage Supremes affected by this sword wouldn’t die naturally.

But his opponent was a Grand Supreme!

The Purple Daoist stood still, his origin divine ability activating.

Qi Yuan’s strong sword was blocked by him.

The Purple Daoist said lightly: "Do it more; if you die, I won’t see such swords."

He wanted to understand the sin source and Wugui City’s secrets through Qi Yuan’s sword.

Chen Huan watched silently.

Qi Yuan’s attacks were ineffective, as expected.

His origin divine ability was deadly, but if he grew to Grand Supreme, he’d be invincible except for the Emperor and the Venerable.

But now, he was newly Supreme.

The gap with Grand Supremes was vast.

Qi Yuan remained calm, saying: "Purple Daoist, actually… you’re not a Grand Supreme."

But he kept attacking.

Fighting and talking.

Qi Yuan used to hate this.

But now, with the origin divine ability, he had to talk for the best effect.

The Purple Daoist smiled: "You’re amusing."

First time someone said he wasn’t a Grand Supreme.

Did it matter?
"A Grand Supreme doesn’t just engrave the origin divine ability in body and soul but also in demons.

Demons are part of you; without engraving, how can you be a Grand Supreme?" Qi Yuan talked nonsense.

"Rubbish." The Purple Daoist’s origin divine ability hit Qi Yuan, who dodged easily.

His eyes showed surprise.

"When you reached Grand Supreme, did you hear a whisper calling… the Demon Confinement?" Qi Yuan asked again.

The Purple Daoist’s eyes darkened: "How do you know?"

He thought of Wugui City, the demoness’s burial site.

Did the Wugui City guardian know these things?

Qi Yuan smiled mysteriously.

The 'Demon Confinement Technique' was from his understanding of the Grand Portal.

When he taught it, he couldn’t add traps, but he didn’t need to.

He created the technique.

The Purple Daoist’s technique was derived from the 'Demon Confinement Technique,' so he knew its effects well.

"Your technique is flawed." Qi Yuan became a great deceiver, speaking confidently, "When you reached Supreme, your dantian’s human demon power rolled three times; last time you meditated, you saw a door in your mind…"

The Purple Daoist’s face grew darker, then showed joy: "You’ve gained more than I imagined in Wugui City!"

"So, you’re not a Grand Supreme; your origin divine ability isn’t fully engraved, with many flaws.

You’re at best mid-stage Supreme, not a true Grand Supreme.

The Emperor and the Venerable are the only flawless Grand Supremes." Qi Yuan lied.

"You speak interestingly, almost convincing me… but does it matter? I’m not flawless, but can you beat me?" The Purple Daoist was somewhat convinced.

"To be a true Grand Supreme, you must forget… you’re a false Grand Supreme, or you’ll never reach true Grand Supreme!" Qi Yuan revealed his plan.

The Purple Daoist paused, forgetting he was a Grand Supreme.

Forget?

Qi Yuan’s eyes sharpened.

The moment was here!

The Great Forgetting Mind Sutra!

Void Realm Sovereign Heart Demon Induction!

Hidden until now, the Great Forgetting Mind Sutra activated.

The Purple Daoist stood, eyes blank: "I’m not a Grand Supreme?"

He forgot he was a Grand Supreme.

His aura dropped for an instant.

His flawless origin divine ability showed a flaw.

The Void Realm Sovereign Heart Demon Induction activated.

Heart demons filled the Purple Daoist’s heart.

He, like the five Supremes, had demons emerge.

His eyes cleared, showing fear and anger, he roared: "I am a Grand Supreme!"
