Life-and-Death Struggle

2/14/2026

Surging spiritual qi circulated through the body of the Patriarch of the Upper-Grade Lynn Clan.

The aura of the Golden Core grew ever denser.

It was a kind of indescribable pressure.

Far more terrifying than Heavenly Phenomenon.

Any mortal who saw it felt a primal urge to kneel and worship from the depths of their heart.

The Patriarch of the Upper-Grade Lynn Clan’s gaze sharpened as he stared at Evan Lynn, his eyes calm yet radiating authority.

"I told you before."

Evan Lynn looked at him. "I won't yield today."

As soon as these words came out—

Everyone around instantly felt as if heaven and earth had changed along with them.

The Patriarch of the Upper-Grade Lynn Clan’s aura surged again, climbing higher and higher, bringing an overwhelming sense of authority.

That was the true majesty of a cultivator!

"Since you know about the Golden Core, you should also know that only by forming a Golden Core can you truly step into the gate of immortal cultivation."

"No matter how strong you are, you still haven't entered the door. Before my Golden Core, you're nothing but a paper tiger."

He let out a sigh.

Then, he slowly stood up!

As the Patriarch of the Upper-Grade Lynn Clan rose from the chariot, now reduced to a single layer of wooden base—

Overhead, countless flashes of lightning and thunder echoed in response.

From the distant horizon, waves of thick, heavy dark clouds seemed to sense something and began slowly converging toward this spot.

A series of world-shaking omens made everyone’s expression change dramatically.

"Just by standing up, the Patriarch of the Upper-Grade Lynn Clan triggers such world-shaking omens?"

"This Golden Core he talks about—just how powerful is it? Is it really stronger than all hundred-plus Heavenly Phenomenon experts from the Upper-Grade Lynn Clan combined?"

"Golden Core...what exactly is it?"

In front of the screen—

Many people watching this scene showed nothing but bewilderment on their faces.

In their minds, the strongest experts were just Vajra and Pointing-to-Mystery!

Even Heavenly Phenomenon was a realm they had only just learned about.

But now, seeing the Patriarch of the Upper-Grade Lynn Clan talk about Golden Core, and seeing him trigger world-shaking omens, it instantly sent shockwaves through everyone’s hearts!

This was a realm beyond their understanding!

"Where’s Master Lin from Seacrest?"

"Does he not have a Golden Core?"

"From what the Patriarch said, it seems Master Lin from Seacrest hasn’t reached this level yet. In other words, this time, will Master Lin lose?"

A commotion broke out.

Many people thought of this and their feelings suddenly became complicated.

Several times before, people thought Master Lin from Seacrest would lose, but he always turned the tables at the last moment.

But now, with the Patriarch of the Upper-Grade Lynn Clan saying these things himself, they couldn’t help but believe it!

"Golden Core..."

Vermilion Bird stared blankly at the place where the Patriarch of the Upper-Grade Lynn Clan stood.

The sky over there looked far darker than anywhere else.

The air around the Patriarch of the Upper-Grade Lynn Clan seemed to have completely frozen at this moment.
