Chen Nan's battle was about to end. Fresh blood stained the blade of Sword Chenyuan. With a slight shake, the blood beads scattered, and shockingly, the bald head he had sliced in half was still not dead.
"No!"
The bald man let out a scream, and a Golden Core flew out from his body. Shang Ming, already covered in cracks, quickly fled into the distance, clearly intending to escape.
The Golden Core was the culmination of a Great Cultivator's lifetime cultivation. In a moment of crisis, they could split off a strand of Divine Thought into the Golden Core, offering a chance for survival.
If one possessed a certain Secret Technique, it was even possible to be reborn through the Golden Core. However, the conditions for rebirth were extremely harsh, and success was nearly impossible; but there was still a shred of hope.
