"It's been a while..." Xu Tao breathed deeply, as if internalizing his newfound strength.
He hadn't just reached the Golden Core stage—he'd reached the Perfect Golden Core stage! A realm only achievable when one forms a golden core with 100% accuracy—something all cultivators aspire to, yet most fail to accomplish.
Compared to the normal kind, the Perfect version had 10% more Qi concentration and density. Though that might seem small, this "small" difference could split mountains once nurtured to its peak.
Of course, Xu Tao had reached the Perfect Golden Core in the past too. But that was only with the final golden core he formed before breaking into the Nascent Soul stage.
Now that he'd achieved it right from the start, he could aim to get all ten golden cores perfect—and gain a full 100% cumulative bonus! Just imagining the power he'd have with that made his heart race.
Without delay, he opened his status panel.
