"This is terrible!"

Li Xingtian then understood Su Lin's meaning and was immediately shocked. He stopped drawing power from the tribulation clouds and quickly flew towards Su Lin.

"Smack!"

Li Xingtian placed his right hand on Su Lin's head and his left hand, shaped like a sword, pressed against Su Lin's back. Two streams of powerful spiritual energy flowed from his body into Su Lin's body. He observed Su Lin's body with his own mind and then continuously guided and regulated the rampant immortal light within Su Lin's body.

Because Su Lin had inherited Li Xingtian's Daoist teachings, and their cultivation paths were extremely similar, Li Xingtian dared to do this.

Even though Su Lin's body didn't resist Li Xingtian's spiritual energy, the immortal light was too much and too intense. Before long, cold sweat beaded on Li Xingtian's forehead as he muttered, "This is too strange. Shouldn't this be a good thing? How can it be so violent!"

This was originally a rare and top-tier divine substance, but consuming too much of it can cause discomfort and has had the opposite effect.

Li Xingtian understood this principle and tried to absorb the excess immortal light from Su Lin's body into his own, but he found that he could not attract the immortal light at all.

When the celestial light is outside, it is like a fish without a master, which can be manipulated at will. But once it enters the human body, it becomes a divine medicine that takes root and cannot be shaken by others in the slightest.

Li Xingtian had no choice. Although he had extraordinary talent, he had not been cultivating for long and had never seen such a situation before. He could only rely on his experience and guide the spiritual energy in Su Lin's body to continuously compress the ever-expanding immortal light.

"Lin'er, hold your breath and concentrate, then use your internal energy to temper your body!"

Li Xingtian gave a low shout and used his own method to guide Su Lin to circulate his spiritual energy. At this moment, only Su Lin himself could draw upon the immortal light within his body.

Su Linyi endured the excruciating pain throughout her body, which felt like being slowly sliced ​​to death. She closed her eyes and circulated her internal energy, continuously compressing the immortal light to reduce the pressure on her internal foundation.

"Pay attention! Memorize the traces of my spiritual energy circulation!"

The immortal light was so abundant and intense that it continuously exploded within his body. The more Su Lin compressed it, the more immortal light appeared.

Heaven knows how much terrifying energy was brewing within those few purple immortal threads. Su Lin could only grit his teeth, focus on compression, and frantically refine the immortal light.

He didn't know how to refine, so he used the guiding method taught by Li Xingtian.

This method was somewhat unfamiliar, but Su Lin completely trusted Li Xingtian and followed the instructions, continuously circulating the energy through his body, again and again.

Only after realizing that he had become completely proficient and could barely control the frequency of the compression and burst of immortal light did they notice that Li Xingtian's guiding spiritual light had dissipated.

The grandmaster probably understood that the crisis had passed and that Su Lin could now handle things on his own.

Su Lin really wanted to ask his grandmaster again: When will this tempering of immortal light finally end?

However, Li Xingtian had already withdrawn his spiritual energy and could not communicate with him through divine sense. Su Lin also had no time to spare and dared not wake up from his meditation at this moment.

He could only concentrate on continuing to compress, discarding distracting thoughts, and constantly refining... Gradually, Su Lin realized that something was wrong.

"Wait, am I forming my core?"

Su Lin was taken aback. He had been observing himself with his divine sense and saw that the infinite immortal light was being compressed and refined, forming a blurry circle.

This is not a pure entity. If we consider the human body as the universe, then this vague circle is like the initial state of a gas giant, with a hazy, approximate shape, but not yet solidified.

Although Su Lin had not yet entered the Golden Core stage, he had done a lot of research on this realm and could roughly guess what he was doing.

The so-called Golden Core, simply put, is a materialized spiritual core formed by condensing and tempering the spiritual energy within the body. It takes the form of a pill, but in reality, it is the source of spiritual energy and also the egg of the Nascent Soul.

Although Su Lin is not forming his core with spiritual energy, he is essentially doing the same thing. He is witnessing himself forming his core.

This is not up to Su Lin's will. Whether he wants to break through to the Core Formation stage or not, he cannot let go of the process of refining the immortal light. Once he relaxes, the result will be the explosion of the immortal light.

He could only grit his teeth and swallow this great opportunity, watching himself race wildly on the path to Core Formation, unable to stop.

He didn't know how much time had passed until Su Lin saw a round golden core appear on his nine-tiered Dao Platform!

The tenth level of the Dao Platform did not fully emerge. To be precise, the tenth level of the Dao Platform was replaced by this Golden Core, because the tenth level of the Dao Platform was brought to the surface by the immortal light. At the same time as Su Lin was refining the immortal light, he was also suppressing the strange phenomenon of the tenth level of the Dao Platform.

The immortal light was tempered, and the tenth-level Dao Platform did not appear, but a golden core emerged in its original position.

"I...I've achieved the Golden Core?"

Su Lin murmured to himself. At this moment, his body was completely empty, with no trace of immortal light or spiritual energy.

His entire body was completely drained, leaving not a trace, all of it concentrated in this moment within the golden elixir.

If Su Lin were to take advantage of this great opportunity to successfully form his Golden Core, he wouldn't mind, but the problem is... this Golden Core is grayish and looks very inconspicuous, without any of the extraordinary phenomena of a top-level Golden Core.

Most importantly, when Su Lin tried to guide the golden core with his divine sense, he found that the thing did not move at all!

It was as if it were welded to the nine-story platform, not moving an inch, and it did not respond to any of Su Lin's attempts to pull it.

"Have I really reached the Core Formation stage? Or... has a tumor grown on my cultivation platform?!"

Su Lin was filled with surprise and doubt. This was an unfamiliar scene that was not recorded in any cultivation manual. Considering that Su Lin was a genius who could understand the wonders of the world, there must have been a path of the methods of predecessors before him!

On a path no one had ever walked before, Su Lin was also bewildered, and cautiously tried a different method to guide the Golden Core of the Dao Platform.

In just a moment, a wisp of purple light appeared on the dim golden core, and it bloomed slightly, instantly bursting forth with extremely rich spiritual energy that filled every corner of Su Lin's body.
