Chapter 223 Golden Core
The disturbance caused by the battle in the Eastern Sea had a far greater impact on the Cangwu Great World than people had imagined.
The Great Sun Sword Sect itself was one of the stronger forces among the many large sects.
Despite the number of elite Battle Courtyards being only eight due to population reasons, but...
When it comes to elite Battle Courtyards, it also depends on which sect you compare them with.
For a sect like the Xuanming Sect, it might be an exaggeration for one elite Battle Courtyard of the Great Sun Sword Sect to take on ten of theirs, but taking on five, would absolutely be more than enough.
Not to mention, the Great Sun Sword Sect also had the capability to produce Patrol Heaven Warships!
Even...
They could produce Third Generation Patrol Heaven Warships!
On this point, even the Golden Temple, one of the Six Great Immortal Sects, didn't have this capability.
All of the Patrol Heaven Warships in the Golden Temple were purchased.
This, although related to their strategy of "spending money on research might not yield results, better to buy directly", also showcased the gap in conventional strength between the two sects.
However, such a powerful sect was almost being ground into the dust by the Nine Cauldrons Sect.
They had just recently lost an elite Battle Courtyard and a Patrol Heaven Warship.
This time, they had barely managed to regroup, deploying three elite Battle Courtyards and one of the most advanced Vajra-class Celestial Warships, but the outcome?
No change whatsoever.
One of the three Battle Courtyards was directly lost.
The Vajra-class Celestial Warship followed the precedent set by the earlier Spring Rain-class Celestial Warship.
The efficiency of these losses nearly matched that of a fortune-giving boy.
As the scenes of this great battle became known to many Heavenly Palace Cultivators, it quickly spread across the many large sects of the Cangwu Great World.
After the large sects received the news, it gradually trickled down to the medium and small sects as well.
Those medium and small sects that were far away fared better.
At most, they marveled at how strong the Nine Cauldrons Sect had become.
But those closer to the Nine Cauldrons Sect, even those directly competing with them in the East Sea Archipelago like the Ancient Immortal Sect, the Dayue Dynasty, and the Star Sea Sect, were suddenly unable to sit still.
One by one, these forces contacted Sect Master Li Qingshan of the Nine Cauldrons Sect, hoping to send delegations to visit.
Especially the Dayue Dynasty.
After hurriedly convening a meeting upon receiving the news, they quickly withdrew all of the Dayue Dynasty's forces from the East Sea Archipelago and perfectly preserved all buildings and facilities.
Informing the personnel from the Nine Cauldrons Sect to come and take over.
Their sincere manner was only short of folding the blankets and cleaning up to demonstrate their friendly intentions and sincerity in their withdrawal.
As for the Xuanming Sect, which had been quiet for a while, they became even quieter, completely losing any thoughts of returning to the Eastern Sea.
The only reason left for stirring things up was that the almost sidelined Sect Master, Song You, became active again.
After all...
Even a sect as strong as the Great Sun Sword Sect had suffered severe losses multiple times before the Nine Cauldrons Sect, losing two Patrol Heaven Warships and two elite Battle Courtyards.
Compared to the Great Sun Sword Sect, their loss of over three hundred Great Cultivators in the Xuanming Sect was considered minor.
Even considering the actual gap in strength between the Xuanming Sect and the Great Sun Sword Sect...
What happened to the Xuanming Sect couldn't even be called a defeat!
It was clearly a minimal cost paid by the Xuanming Sect to survive a crisis that could have annihilated them!
Alkaid mentally conjured a few question marks.
If he remembered correctly...
Wasn't it the case that the Brahma Divine Nation even couldn't produce one Heavenly Patrol Warship?
The only two they had were first-generation warships bought from the Myriad Beasts Sect?
"Such is the domestic propaganda of the Brahma Divine Nation, and indeed, under constant brainwashing propaganda, the people of Brahma Divine Nation believe it without doubt and look down upon other sects with a condescending attitude. In this context... once a war with the Brahma Divine Nation breaks out, it could potentially escalate into a full-scale conflict!"
Li Qingshan said, then summed up, "Ignorance is indeed bliss."
Alkaid was somewhat speechless upon hearing this.
"They... can deceive ordinary people, but can those Great Cultivators also be deceived by them?"

"Although some Great Cultivators understand the true level of the Brahma Divine Nation... the one who orders the deception of the entire nation's intelligence, is that supreme being above them all—the Brahma Divine Master!"
Li Qingshan said, "Faced with this being's orders, many Great Cultivators, knowing some information is false, still dare not disobey. Over time, even the most unbelieving people, under such indoctrination, get brainwashed into believing it."
"The Brahma Divine Master."
Alkaid said.
In this world, the ultimate power was undoubtedly the Sunburst Golden Core.
For, the Sunburst Golden Core could simulate a supernova explosion, instantly releasing energy that, it is said, even the entire Cangwu Great World couldn't withstand.
In other words, this power is capable of World Annihilation.
But besides the Sunburst Golden Core, the power of the Crimson Red Gold Core is also not to be underestimated.
It may not destroy the Cangwu Great World, but to turn a vast continent spanning millions of miles into dust, and even altering the entire world's landscape, is similarly not a difficult task.
The Brahma Divine Nation is one of the powers that possesses the Crimson Red Gold Core.
Apart from the Brahma Divine Nation, the others in today's world who possess the Crimson Red Gold Core are the Six Great Immortal Sects and the Primordial Yang Sect, along with the Brahma Sect.
The remaining forces include sects like the Great Sun Sword Sect, the Taiyi Sect, the Blue Sea Sacred Land, the Holy Fire Sect, and the Asia-Pacific Dynasty, all of which possess Star God-level combat strength.
These forces are basically concentrated on the Heavenly Star Continent and the Black Flame Continent.
The reason they are concentrated on these two continents...
Is because these two continents lack a supreme power above all others.
The Golden Temple of the Black Flame Continent doesn't count, being externally strong but internally weak.
"So, it's not yet time to reclaim the Hundred Thousand Mountains! At least... until we have a hundred percent capacity to defeat the Brahma Divine Nation, we should first assist the Brahma Sect to fend them off,"
Li Qingshan said, "For the next five to ten years, our focus will be entirely on building and developing the foundation of Spirit Gathering Arrays and Defensive Arrays, waiting for us to tap into the 300,000-mile East Sea Archipelago... no small feat indeed."
Alkaid listened and nodded.
"Alright, next we'll talk about the treasure exchange involving the Vajra Warship."
Li Qingshan spoke, taking out a rhombus-shaped device.
As soon as the device came out, it quickly expanded, directly growing to a scale of three meters.
Looking at the device itself, it was clearly a heavily sealed Magic Formation.
And in the most central position...
Was a Golden Core!
A Golden Core...
Resembling a blazing Crimson Red sun!
