Chapter 312: Five Elements Annihilation Sword
In the Huan Yu Courtyard, Li Fan appeared to be just meditating peacefully like usual, sitting quietly.
But in reality, profound changes were taking place within his body.
The black-and-white Golden Core engulfed all the different types of power in the vortex of the dantian, strengthening itself.
As time passed, the vortex gradually shrank.
But the Golden Core became more solid and dynamic.
Its shape became more rounded, and the black-and-white colors on its surface flowed more rapidly.
When the vortex was completely consumed, black and white finally merged at this extreme speed.
A wave of energy erupted from it, sweeping through the dantian in an instant, then spreading throughout Li Fan's body.
Wherever the wave passed during the process of core formation, all the turbulent energies remaining in various parts of the body dissipated.
All disturbances were calmed.
This wave swept around and quickly returned.
It was accompanied by the spiritual energy scattered throughout the body and the Karmic Bodies stored in the dantian.
The ball of light of [Truth] also followed this wave, turning into a strand of clear light and diving into the Golden Core.
Completing the final piece of the puzzle, Li Fan's Golden Core finally took shape.
The Golden Core fell into absolute stillness in an instant, and then a dazzling light burst from it.
It shined all over his body, even interrupting Li Fan's internal observation process.
As the light gradually receded, when Li Fan looked again, he saw a seemingly ordinary, plain Golden Core floating quietly in his dantian.
Before Li Fan could even feel any emotion, a majestic spiritual energy gushed out from the Golden Core, flowing through his limbs and bones from the dantian.
This was a completely new power, far exceeding the quality and quantity of Foundation Establishment.
Every cell in his body was bathed in the nurturing spiritual energy of the Golden Core and seemed to emit joyous cheers.
Long-lost vitality and youthful vigor emerged from Li Fan's heart.
"The journey had been arduous and dangerous, with several brushes with death."
"Today, I finally achieved the Golden Core."
"It wasn't easy to come by, a stroke of luck indeed."
Li Fan sighed in his heart, then opened the [Truth] panel to check the changes after attaining Golden Core.

...
"My lifespan has suddenly increased from four hundred years to six hundred years, nearly by double. The upper limit of my psychological age has also begun to increase again."
"The gap between Golden Core and Foundation Establishment is indeed immense. I previously thought that the several Karmic Bodies of cultivation I accumulated could propel me to middle stage Golden Core after I broke through. But the progress has only just passed one-third..."
"Perhaps this may also be due to the forced use of nine laws to form the core."
"A Nine Law Golden Core is naturally not something an ordinary Golden Core can compare to."
Recalling the process of just forming the core, Li Fan couldn't help but admit that his success this time had a bit of luck involved.
The power of the Five Elements was hastily put together by him.
The power of water and fire was much greater than that of wood, metal, and earth.
This led to the operation of the Five Elements not being so harmonious and smooth.
Instead, it constantly showed signs of being out of control, almost causing his efforts to fail.
"Fortunately, the final result was not bad, and I barely formed a moderately powerful Golden Core."
The Golden Core, once formed, was one with Li Fan.
Regarding its various uses, Li Fan naturally understood them clearly.
The nine laws, and even the various functions of [Truth] as a Foundation Treasure, all belonged to this Golden Core.
In the future, whenever Li Fan used spells of the Five Elements, he would be able to command them like his own arms, receiving a certain level of enhancement.
Among them, the effects of water and fire were more prominent.
The Five Elements nourished each other endlessly. The continuous combat capability, compared to the previous Endless Hatred Branch, was much stronger.
Li Fan was confident that if he returned to the spiritual energy-less Land of Immortal Extinction now, relying solely on the spiritual energy within his body, even if he was constantly in a state of battle consumption, he could still persist for quite a long time.
Furthermore, the existence of the Law of Hidden Potential could also allow Li Fan to quickly recover from his injuries.
The combination of the two made Li Fan almost an existence that could not be exhausted.
The Azure Flame Illusionary Spirit had disappeared and was no longer present in his sea of consciousness. It had become part of the laws of the Golden Core. Now, Li Fan could enter the state of absolute rationality without relying on the Azure Flame Illusionary Spirit.
And as for the final Heavenly Calamity and Ink Death...
At the moment of achieving the Golden Core, Li Fan suddenly comprehended and conceived a killing move that merged the characteristics of both.
Driven by the power of the Five Elements, with the destructive power of the Heavenly Calamity and Ink Death as the sword's edge.
Coupled with the unrelenting swordsmanship of the Cong Yun Sea Twenty-Eight Swords.
Li Fan named it the "Five Elements Annihilation Sword".
"Unfortunately, this is my hidden trump card and can not be easily exposed. The Huan Yu Courtyard is under heavy surveillance, and I can't test its effectiveness here."
Thinking about the power of this new divine ability, Li Fan reluctantly suppressed his thoughts.
After summarizing his gains, Li Fan reflected and planned for the future.
"The disharmony of the Five Elements must be resolved sooner or later. Otherwise, even if the Golden Core is intact, when seizing the flawless and self-contained Five Element Subworlds, setbacks will be inevitable."
The New Law of the Immortal Ancestor, while fast in cultivation, would inevitably face the counterattacks of heaven and earth when breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Before, he compared peeking into the laws of heaven and earth to copying from a piece of art.
Then seizing a subworld from heaven and earth could be likened to forcibly taking precious paintings from a museum full of treasures.
Naturally, one had to face the countermeasures of the defense system.
The specific details were still unclear to Li Fan at the moment, but he had read some snippets about it before.
"Next, I should cultivate while collecting relevant information."
"Whether it is information about the Five Element Subworlds or the Five Elements Laws comparable to the Hanhai and Crimson Flame, it won't be easy to come by."
"Careful planning is needed."
As Li Fan, in the Golden Core stage, resumed his cultivation, he felt the long-lost sensation of his progress slowing down.
He couldn't help but miss Xiao Heng, He Zhenghao, and Su Xiaomei.
"Xiao Heng should be in Shilin Province by now, and Su Xiaomei hasn't come out of the Chaoyuan Sect ruins yet."
"He Zhenghao has finished his closed-door training, and seems to be busy with his duties and hasn't had much chance to cultivate."
"Well, they have all broken through the Golden Core, and wanting to progress further is not something that can be achieved overnight."
"It seems like it is time to cultivate some new crops."
