Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm

Everyone had journeyed through the Golden Core Stage, and looking back now, they generally felt that they were naive back then, having not fully understood the nuances of the Golden Core Stage. If they could do it all over again, they believed they could do better.

Thus, everyone was intrigued and eager to test their abilities in this regard.

Even the nearly two-thousand-year-old Zhang Sen was no exception. He also took an external Golden Core and began designing it based on his own ideas.

“The lotus blossom has a special significance in Buddhist Law. If I carve the symbol of the lotus blossom onto the Golden Core, perhaps it could allow me to utilize Buddhist Law,” he speculated.

“The self-destruction of the Golden Core is a common life-risking tactic used by Golden Core Stage cultivators. If I could break the Golden Core into small pieces in advance, then during the Golden Core Stage, I would be able to self-destruct and recover at will.”

“I heard that the statue of the Human Emperor is indestructible, and his image has become a symbol of invincibility, unbreakable even by Heavenly Immortals. If I could carve the image of the Human Emperor onto my Golden Core, wouldn’t that make me invincible as well?”

“If I could imprint the cultivation techniques of the Sky Mechanism Tower on my Golden Core, then when I reach the Golden Core Stage, I could take advantage of situations and avoid danger.”

“A Golden Core? What if I infuse Sword Qi into it? I wonder what kind of benefits it would bring.”

“Unlike humans, we dragons integrate our bloodline and flesh to form a demonic core. This external Golden Core is a product of the humans. I wonder what effect it would have on me.”

“The Golden Core is so small, but there are so many transformative magical beasts out there. It won’t fit.”

Watching this group of mundane people thinking of all sorts of shortcuts, Su Wei shook his head slightly.

“Foolish,” he sneered, continuing to refine the external Golden Core.

Watch me refine three thousand Golden Cores.

Each of you has a single Golden Core, but I have three thousand. Not to mention the Human Emperor, even if the Human Emperor, the Sect Master Bai, and the Empress Yu Yin were to join forces, they would still be no match for me.

Su Wei could already see the dawn of victory.

“Mission accomplished.”

The three thousand external Golden Cores were refined, and the aura filled the sky, forming a beautiful sight. Su Wei had just started to laugh when the Red Crow Furnace closed its furnace door, took the three thousand external Golden Cores, and bolted, disappearing into the depths of the forest.

“Hahaha, the ultimate victor will definitely be me, Red Crow Furnace. Watch me hold the three thousand Golden Cores in my mouth, suppressing countless ages, becoming the strongest in the world!”

“Red Crow Furnace, come back here!” Su Wei stomped his foot in anger.

He wanted to continue refining, but the Spirit Plant Sect had already run out of materials.

“Damn it!” Su Wei watched helplessly as the title of ‘strongest Golden Core’ slipped away from him.

…

“I will count down from one hundred and twenty seconds. During this time, you will hide yourselves throughout the Spirit Plant Sect. Once the time is up, we will start the competition,” referee Su Wei said.

He didn’t have a single external Golden Core left on him; they were all in the belly of the Red Crow Furnace. Having lost his eligibility to participate, all he could do was serve as a referee.

“One hundred and twenty, one hundred and nineteen, one hundred and eighteen… three, two, one… start!”

…

“Behold, my Tai Chi Golden Core!” The cultivator who obtained the external Golden Core first made his move. With the circulation of Yin and Yang, it looked like a pair of black and white dragons tailing each other, forming a Tai Chi symbol.

This method allowed him to increase his mana by several times compared to usual. In a battle of attrition under similar conditions, his victory was guaranteed.

His opponent showed no fear, facing him head-on. The two released their mana against each other, unable to determine the winner.

“We’ll see who can last longer,” sneered the cultivator holding the Tai Chi Golden Core.

“If I win, you’d better not defect.”

“You beat me? Apart from you establishing your foundation before me, forming a core before me, breaking the core to form a Nascent Soul before me, becoming an Immortal before me, getting married before me, and becoming the Sect Master before me, when have you ever been able to defeat me?”

To his surprise, the cultivator holding the Tai Chi Golden Core found his mana being rapidly depleted, sucked away by his opponent’s Golden Core.

“What kind of Golden Core is that?!”

“A Black Hole Golden Core. It’s a continuously compressed Golden Core that collapses into a black hole and is capable of devouring everything!”

“Does it devour you too?”

“Of course not… wait a moment. It’s even absorbing my mana… Help!” The opponent realized that the Black Hole Golden Core not only absorbed the mana of his enemies, but it also absorbed his own mana. He quickly spit it out, destroying it.

The inspiration behind some people’s Golden Cores came from random, whimsical thoughts. Whether it was practical or harmful was up for debate.

…

“What does the circulation of Yin and Yang amount to? My Nine-Color Golden Core will unquestionably shine here!” Each color of the Nine-Color Golden Core corresponded to a different spell. In a battle, he could seamlessly switch between them, leaving his opponent struggling to keep up.

“I already anticipated that you people would turn to either Tai Chi Golden Core or Five-Colored Golden Core, Seven-Color Golden Core, or Nine-Color Golden Core. Are you all running a dye shop? Behold my Colorblind Golden Core!”

The opponent summoned the Colorblind Golden Core, which rendered the holder of the Nine-Colored Golden Core unable to distinguish the nine colors on his Golden Core, thus rendering his ability to cast spells moot.

The only function of the Colorblind Golden Core was to make the opponent colorblind in battle, but it did not have any substantial combat power.

The two barehanded cultivators fought each other, and in the end, the holder of the Colorblind Golden Core claimed a hard-won victory at the cost of two black eyes.

…

“Check out my Self-Destruct Golden Core.” Without any preamble, one cultivator initiated his Golden Core’s self-destruction upon meeting an opponent, exhibiting extraordinary Golden Core Stage combat power. Even when facing a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage, he might still be able to win the battle.

“Benefactor, we should promote peace. Blossom, Green Lotus Golden Core!” Another cultivator appeared unruffled, and a phantom image of a blue lotus appeared behind him. From it, the chant of sutras faintly echoed. The blue lotus blossomed into a soft blue Buddha light, illuminating everything around him.

The Buddha light enlightened all beings, making them lose the will to fight and desire peace instead.

The other cultivator pressed his hands together, chanting the name of Buddha, his face filled with confusion upon seeing the holder of the Self-Destruct Golden Core.

“Peace, peace. There’s no need to fight, I forfeit.” The holder of the Green Lotus Golden Core voluntarily forfeited.

“Did your Buddha light also enlighten you?” The holder of the Self-Destruct Golden Core was rendered speechless.

…

“Daoist Golden Core, plant the roots in the dantian!” Zhang Sen regarded the Golden Core as a seed, planting it in his dantian, and cultivated the Planting Mantra, allowing the seeds of the Golden Core to grow robustly, yielding three Golden Cores.

“Hey, hey, hey, elder Zhang Sen, you’re pushing it too far! Your Golden Core is clearly more than anyone else’s.”

“Humph, these are my insights. There’s nothing against the rules.”

Upon hearing this, the opponent coldly smirked: “That gives me peace of mind.”

“Core Breaking and Infant Formation!”

He transformed into a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.

The only function of his Golden Core was to design it into a state that could be shattered into a Nascent Soul at any time.

A nascent Soul Stage cultivator fighting a cultivator with three Golden Cores. After several dozen rounds of combat, the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was victorious.

“Nascent Soul Stage.”

A disdainful voice came from the dense forest.

“Who’s there!”

The Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was on high alert.

Yu Yin slowly emerged, her face cold and indifferent, not taking her opponent seriously at all.

The Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was instantly on guard, choosing to strike first and quickly fleeing.

He was once a contender for the position of the Human Emperor and, like the others, had been beaten up by Yu Yin several times, which had left him psychologically scarred.

Fight?

He was struggling to flee.

Yu Yin disappeared from where she was standing, appearing above the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator and stomping him into the ground until he could not even lift his head.

Yu Yin was still at the Golden Core Stage, but dealing with a beginner Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was still easy for her.

“Sister Yu Yin, I was wrong, don’t hit my head.”

Yu Yin lightly sighed, withdrawing her jade foot: “So many years have passed, and you still haven’t made any progress. You still haven’t solidified your realm, always so eager for quick success. You always like to be one step ahead, yet after so many years have passed, you’ve remained in the initial stage of union. Have you figured out the reason yet?”
