The man and the beast fought for a full day and night without a clear victor. Just then, two streaks of light came from the sky and transformed into two young girls. One girl was dressed in green and the other in red, and they looked exactly like the girl in white.
These two girls are A Yao's wood-type clone and fire-type clone.
After the two clones joined the battle, the Golden Feathered Sparrow was defeated time and again. In the end, the Golden Feathered Sparrow fell to the ground and died unwillingly.
The bright moon shone in the sky as the girl in white gracefully landed.
The girl in white was A Yao's metal-elemental clone. After discovering the golden-feathered sparrow, she set up various traps to lure the monster into them. Looking at the golden-feathered sparrow lying dead on the ground, A Yao in white said, "Even with a trace of phoenix bloodline, it is far superior to an ordinary level eight monster."
She put the golden-feathered sparrow into her storage bag, exchanged a glance with her two other selves, and then they all turned into a streak of light and disappeared into the night.
The three Ayaos arrived at a cave, which was filled with various restrictions inside and out.
Red-clad Ayao and Green-clad Ayao stood guard outside, while White-clad Ayao went inside the cave, where an array had already been carved. She placed the golden-feathered sparrow in the center of the array.
White-clad Ayao rapidly formed hand seals, and as she did so, the runes on the array lit up. Wisps of red light rose from the array, burning onto the golden-feathered sparrow's body.
White-robed Ayao cast spells one after another on the Golden Feather Sparrow's body. Its body emitted a blood-red light, and then a drop of bright red blood emerged from the Golden Feather Sparrow's body, slowly drifting towards White-robed Ayao.
The Golden Feathered Sparrow is a demon beast that inherited a thin lineage of the Golden Phoenix, so the drop of phoenix blood extracted from its body is most suitable for integration into A Yao's gold-type clone.
The crimson drop of blood, like a tiny red gemstone, drifted down onto A Yao's fair and jade-like brow and blended into her skin.
Then, A Yao in white sat down cross-legged, closed her eyes, and her whole body radiated golden light as she began to refine that drop of phoenix blood.
For A Yao, who had cultivated the Phoenix Technique, refining a drop of phoenix blood was effortless. Before long, she opened her eyes, her jet-black pupils turning into a brilliant gold, burning like two small suns. The golden light emanating from her body grew stronger and stronger, eventually transforming into a pair of golden wings. The dazzling light emanating from these wings illuminated the entire cave.
A clear phoenix cry rang out, and the two guardian clones outside saw a golden light shoot into the night sky, transforming into a giant golden phoenix.
The moment the phoenix spread its wings, it illuminated the boundless darkness. Its majestic aura, overlooking all the ancient heavens, made all living beings on Mount Luqi tremble in that instant.
However, the golden phoenix quickly disappeared. Inside the cave, the light emanating from A Yao in white slowly dissipated, but the surrounding spiritual energy surged towards her frantically, and her spiritual pressure soared rapidly.
For others, a drop of phoenix blood might be useful, but it certainly wouldn't compare to the effect it had in A Yao's hands. After absorbing this drop of phoenix blood, the strength of her metal-elemental clone increased dramatically, and she prepared to begin forming her Nascent Soul. The spiritual energy of the entire Luqi Mountain was surging towards A Yao in white, and the dense spiritual energy of heaven and earth formed a huge vortex above the cave where A Yao was located.
Everywhere in the night, there were dancing points of light, like fireflies.
In Mount Luqi, many strange beasts discovered this phenomenon, and the cultivators who were gathering herbs in Mount Luqi also immediately noticed it.
A young man dressed in plain clothes looked at the flowing spiritual energy around him, then looked up at the sky in front of him. He saw the huge vortex of spiritual energy and exclaimed in shock, "Is...is some senior forming a Nascent Soul?"
“To break through to the Nascent Soul stage, one must have abundant spiritual energy. Although the spiritual energy of Mount Luqi is abundant, it is fraught with danger. To form a Nascent Soul in such a place, that senior must be a rogue cultivator!” said the pink-clad girl next to the young man in plain clothes.
Both of them were early Foundation Establishment cultivators and a couple. They stood atop the mountain, gazing into the distance, wondering if the senior who had reached the Nascent Soul stage would succeed. They watched as the spiritual energy vortex in the sky grew larger and larger, eventually expanding to a radius of several hundred miles.
The couple watched him intently, and he became nervous, as if he himself were forming his nascent soul.
Five-colored rays of light appeared in the sky, accompanied by rolling thunder. The five-colored rays of light became increasingly dazzling, and finally slowly contracted, shrinking into a ball of light that fell into a certain place deep in the mountains.
The strange phenomenon in the sky disappeared, but after a short while, a clear phoenix cry echoed across the sky, and a huge aura of the early Nascent Soul stage swept across Mount Luqi like a hurricane.
"It's a success! That senior succeeded!" the girl in pink exclaimed excitedly.
The young man in plain clothes was also very excited. He grabbed the girl's hand and said, "It's a success! That senior has succeeded!"
Both of them had very average aptitude; reaching the Foundation Establishment stage was already quite an achievement, and the possibility of even forming a Core Formation in their lifetime was slim, let alone a Nascent Soul stage. Now, seeing a highly accomplished senior achieve Nascent Soul, they felt both excited and envious!
How wonderful it would be if one day I could also form a Nascent Soul!
This is what the couple thought.
After A Yao in white successfully formed her Nascent Soul in the cave, she looked inward and saw that the original location of her Golden Core had been transformed into a tiny person. The tiny person looked exactly like A Yao and sat cross-legged with their eyes closed, just like A Yao.
The moment the white-robed Ayao successfully formed her Nascent Soul, the red-robed Ayao and the green-robed Ayao sitting outside were surrounded by red and green light. Due to the improvement of the white-robed Ayao's metal-elemental clone, their bottlenecks immediately showed signs of loosening. The earth-elemental clone, which was 100,000 miles away, and the main body, which was at the Lu family in Kunshan, also suddenly increased in strength.
The earth-elemental clone, fire-elemental clone, and wood-elemental clone all possessed the power of Nascent Soul formation, while A Yao's main body from the Lu family of Kunshan had also reached the late-stage Great Perfection of the Golden Core realm.
After Baiyi Ayao successfully formed her Nascent Soul, she looked at the corpse of the Golden Feathered Sparrow and with a wave of her hand, she retrieved the sparrow's inner core. The inner core, radiating golden light, flew towards Baiyi Ayao. Baiyi Ayao opened her mouth, and the golden inner core flew into her mouth.
The inner core rolled down her throat and finally settled in her dantian. The nascent soul, which had been keeping its eyes closed, opened its eyes, and two beams of brilliant golden light shot out from its pupils. As soon as it opened its mouth, the inner core shrank and fell into its mouth. The nascent soul then burst out with dazzling light.
White-robed Ayao formed hand seals, mobilizing all her spiritual power to digest the power of the demon core.
Two hours passed in this way, and Baiyi Ayao's cultivation level rose from the early stage of Nascent Soul to the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
After advancing to the mid-Nascent Soul stage, the white-robed Ayao stood up and walked towards the cave entrance. Once outside, the two clones of the protector looked at her.
