Chapter 359: Golden Core Appraisal Conference_1

In the luxurious courtyard, dazzling flashes of gold were occasionally visible.

As the golden light dissipated, a golden core glistening with mist slowly rotated, as ethereal spiritual energy was drawn from all around.

"I had heard rumors about Daoist Yuan Zhi forming a Moon Embracing Gold Core, a core worthy of being an Upper Third Grade. Now that I've seen it, its reputation is indeed well-deserved," an old man with a white beard declared with a smile, his face creased from his enthusiasm.

"Oh, it's nothing remarkable. It took me a painstaking thirty years to finally form this Third Grade Moon Embracing Gold Core. Given Mr. Kang's knowledge, this core would seem unremarkable," Yuan Zhi modestly replied.

Mr. Kang was a deeply learned scholar passionate about his craft, a renowned academic recognized by the Imperial City Academy. His esteemed reputation in Qingzhou won him the respect of many.
