"......"
Su Lin was speechless and could only slowly accept it: "Okay, I'll keep trying."
After saying this, he opened the jade bottle, slightly opened his mouth, and used his spiritual energy to guide the Heavenly Tribulation Immortal Energy from the bottle into his mouth.
Strands of purple silk threads, faintly shimmering with lightning, numbered in the hundreds, continuously seeping into Su Lin's body. The moment they entered, they caused the Heavenly Tribulation Golden Core on the Dao Platform to flicker.
The Heavenly Tribulation Golden Core trembled continuously, attracting the Heavenly Tribulation Immortal Qi within Su Lin's body to continuously flow into it.
Based on past experience, such a terrifying amount of Heavenly Tribulation Immortal Qi would have been enough to burst Su Lin's physical body, but this time it was completely different. Su Lin did not feel any discomfort at all, and all the purple threads were wrapped around the Heavenly Tribulation Golden Core.
Only when the ethereal aura permeated his entire body did Su Lin feel extremely comfortable.
Just then, Su Lin suddenly had a flash of inspiration and used his divine sense to guide his golden core closer to the Heavenly Tribulation Golden Core, so that it would be bathed in the Heavenly Tribulation Immortal Qi at the same time.
The moment the two golden cores came into contact, a strong sense of breakthrough surged into their hearts.
The feeling came on so intensely that it was almost impossible to suppress. Su Lin quickly entered a meditative state and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the closed-door cultivation of the Inner Observation Platform.
"It seems to be working quite well?"
Li Xingtian circled around, observing Su Lin, who was forced into meditation and muttering to himself, and suddenly smiled.
Li Xingtian was about to put his hand on Su Lin's shoulder to check on her condition, but then withdrew his hand halfway through.
"Forget it, I got shocked last time, this time it's probably even more powerful."
Li Xingtian shook his head, observed for a while longer, and confirmed that Su Lin was not abnormal. Then he hummed a little tune and left the room. Before leaving, he set up a few more protective restrictions for Su Lin.
"This kid's Taoist skills are becoming more and more profound. It's fortunate that I have studied them for a long time, otherwise I would not be worthy to show off in front of him."
......
Su Lin was aware of the protection Li Xingtian had provided, but he was no longer able to actively awaken from his meditation.
This time, the celestial energy of the Heavenly Tribulation simultaneously nourished the two golden cores. A massive amount of celestial light illuminated the area around Su Lin's Dao Platform, making it as dazzling as the stars in the universe. The two golden cores resembled two gas giants constantly rising and falling, continuously absorbing the power of the celestial light and nourishing Su Lin's physical body.
In a meditative state, Su Lin could more clearly feel the slightest changes within his body, watching as the immortal energy nourished his golden core, and then, through the golden core, replenished his physical body and refined his spiritual energy.
Su Lin didn't have to do anything; his physical strength kept soaring, his bones and flesh were constantly sublimating in the heavenly tribulation light, and the spiritual energy in his body became increasingly immortal.
"What kind of cultivation path is this...?"
Su Lin was also unsure of his current state. He had never heard of anyone who didn't even need to circulate their cultivation techniques, but instead entered a meditative state and relied entirely on their golden core to cultivate.
On this completely unfamiliar path of cultivation, Su Lin had little cultivation experience to draw upon. He could only rely on his cultivation instincts to guide his golden core, desperately suppressing his desire to break through while consuming large amounts of immortal light.
This is the only path he can learn from, which is the core idea of cultivation that Li Xingtian mentioned: it's better to be slow than fast, and to build a solid foundation!
The fact that they can still suppress breakthroughs means there is still a possibility of building a stronger foundation.
Never break through to the next level until you can't hold back any longer! Keep suppressing! Keep refining! Keep sublimating!
Once in deep meditation, seven months passed in the blink of an eye.
From autumn to winter, and then from winter to early spring.
When Su Lin emerged from his seclusion chamber, everything was thriving, the mountains were lush and green, and the people were still there.
As expected, cultivation knows no time. After nearly a year of seclusion, Su Lin emerged as if only two or three days had passed.
His current cultivation level is still in the early stage of the Golden Core realm.
Su Lin succeeded, completely digesting the Heavenly Tribulation Immortal Qi and stabilizing his cultivation level.
It may seem the same as before, but there are still some subtle changes.
Su Lin could clearly feel that his strength had made an extremely powerful breakthrough. In terms of physical strength, spiritual strength, spiritual energy quality, and so on, he was almost a hundred times stronger than before!
But just how much stronger he is, Su Lin still needs to verify for himself.
Upon emerging from seclusion, Su Lin did not seek out Xiao Linlin, but instead had the entire sect searching for Li Xingtian.
Given the resources of Xiaoyun Temple, only Li Xingtian is qualified to make Su Lin understand his current strength and weakness.
Unfortunately... Li Xingtian is not in the sect.
The old man has gone traveling again!
Upon learning that Su Lin had emerged from seclusion, Xiao Linlin rushed over immediately. When she heard that Su Lin was looking for Li Xingtian, she thoughtfully explained, "Brother, Grandpa said he wants to travel again to seek opportunities for you."
"Is he about to break through again?"
Su Lin blinked, feeling incredulous. This old man had only broken through to the Nascent Soul stage half a year ago. Could he possibly break through again?
This is probably a bit too fast!
Something's not right, something's very wrong. He told me to cultivate diligently and slowly, but why am I trying to break through like my pants are on fire?
Of course, this thought only flashed through Su Lin's mind. He would never suspect that Li Xingtian was not good to him. If his master wanted to harm him, why would he go to the trouble of sending back the Heavenly Tribulation Immortal Qi from thousands of miles away?
Although the path Su Lin took was unfamiliar, the Heavenly Tribulation Immortal Qi was a genuinely valuable thing, a top-tier opportunity that one couldn't even ask for.
"A breakthrough is unlikely..."
Lu Zhouming, who was also nearby, suddenly spoke up upon hearing this, softly reminding him, "I think it's probably because he's avoiding you."
"Avoiding me?"
Su Lin frowned: "Why?"
"Whenever a cultivator emerges from seclusion, they will inevitably seek some means to verify their progress and insights... whether it's sparring with others or going down the mountain to hunt demons. Given the master's personality, he will most likely seek out his grandmaster to compare his Dao techniques."
