Chapter 121: Cultivating Twelve Golden Cores!
Kranos’s thoughts entered his mind, and he was stunned to see that just beside his Golden Core was a black rock. "Is this the Heaven-Defying Treasure?" Kranos was startled. For a moment, he felt that the old man had tricked them, but recalling that terrifying lake, he knew that wasn’t possible.
He reached out his senses and immediately took the rock out. It appeared in his hand; he stared at it for a few minutes and was puzzled, as it looked no different from a common rock. "Could something be inside?" Kranos wondered silently. With that, he knocked lightly on the rock; if anything was inside, he would definitely feel it. However, he was stunned to realize that he still couldn’t sense anything.
Kranos’s eyes widened slightly as he also realized something else: "Did I just hit the rock and nothing happened?" With his cultivation at the tenth stage of the Golden Core Realm, even if it was a slight knock, the rock should have cracked on a minuscule scale, but Kranos realized that no harm was done to the rock.
He hesitated for a moment before deciding to try something. He took out the Azure Sky Sword from his spatial ring and scratched it lightly against the surface of the rock. He raised his brow in surprise the next moment; the sword didn’t even leave a mark on the rock.
Kranos quickly understood that the rock was far from ordinary. He scratched the Azure Sky Sword on the rock once again, this time increasing his strength slightly. However, he realized that the rock was still the same.
Kranos stared at the rock, then repeated the same thing once again... still no damage.
After multiple trials and increasing his strength, until he even used his true strength, Kranos realized that he couldn’t harm the rock in the slightest. He tried to sense if the rock emitted any energy, but he couldn’t sense anything.
Kranos shook his head in regret. Since the rock was far from ordinary, if only he knew how to use it, he would definitely be overjoyed. Placing the rock into his mental space, Kranos studied it once again before removing his thoughts from the rock.
However, just as Kranos was about to remove his senses from his mental space, he thought of something and was stunned. According to the time core manual, one would cultivate a Golden Core and then fragment it to form a Time Palace, stepping into the Time Palace Realm. But what if he didn’t?
"Is it possible that I can condense multiple time cores and Golden Cores? Then fuse them just like with my foundation and form a peculiar core that had never existed?" Kranos’s thoughts ran wildly; he was one who dared to imagine terrifying things and put them to practice!
Ignoring the heaven-defying rock, he focused his attention on the mana core in his time-space. Presently, there were ten strands of mana engraved on it. Kranos had always been occupied, so he hadn’t had the time to increase his strength. Now that there was a great battle coming up which involved monarchs, he knew that it was the most optimum time to increase his strength.
Taking a deep breath, he took out the near-infinite mana stone he had obtained from the treasure box, then began condensing mana strands from it.
