Chapter 340 Late Core Formation Stage, Yin Shi Hall
Wang Yu's Demonic Embryo Mystic Origin Incantation is different from the normal one.
After Long Xingyun's essence was completely devoured, the fire spirit root in his Xuan Yuan Demon Embryo also grew rapidly, and within a few breaths it was equal to the Yin spirit root.
As always, it was 100% digested.
The bloodline constraints seemed to have disappeared, and it could even replenish the lifespan that Wang Yu had lost due to the passage of time.
It's truly mysterious and unpredictable!
Sometimes he even wondered if this secret technique had mistaken his true nature for that of an extraterrestrial demon.
After all, he was reincarnated and was ignorant and confused in his childhood.
As he grew older, his memories of his past life slowly awakened. Although it was slightly different from the possession by the Heavenly Demon, he was fundamentally different from the people of this world.
"Reincarnation, possession, and substitution..."
a long time.
After recovering from his satisfaction, Long Xingyun's corpse was burned to ashes. Wang Yu did not leave the seclusion immediately, but continued to refine the Guanghan Pill within his body.
This pill still has one-third of its medicinal power remaining. Once it is refined, it will be close to the peak of the sixth level of Core Formation. At that time, it can be used to take the Returning to True Spirit Pill.
Once you break through to the late stage of Core Formation, you can visit the Yin Erosion Hall.
If he could obtain the [Luosheng Blood Fruit], his divine sense could break through to the fourth level. The increase in his strength would be secondary; the main reason would be the unlocking of the seventh function.
The limited number of slots can be made more lenient.
It is of great significance to enable him to quickly push his combat power to the peak he can reach.
Thus, six months later.
In early March of the 12th year of Elder Wang Yu's career, it had only been a little over four years since he entered the Blood Abyss Holy Land.
That day.
As the medicinal power of the second top-grade Guanghan Pill in his body was completely digested, Wang Yu's accumulated magical power reached the upper limit of his dantian.
Within the endoscopic field of vision.
A five-centimeter-sized, bluish-black golden pill was located in the center of the Qi Sea.
The Glazed Ice Heart Tower, the Ghost Cry Flute, and the Yellow Spring Demon Sword—these three magical treasures that Wang Yu used most readily—were floating in the ocean of magical power.
By receiving nourishment from his power and maintaining peak condition at all times, only one's natal magic weapon can draw upon the power of growth and progress together with his cultivation.
In contrast, within the dragon's spine, which is completely filled with divine essence, there also exists the Bloodline True Artifact - Demonic Dragon Armor.
"He's reached the peak of the sixth level of Core Formation..."
Awakening from his cultivation, Wang Yu let out a long breath. As he felt the power growing stronger, the threshold of the late stage of Core Formation appeared.
This hurdle is even more difficult. Even with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, it takes time to mature and elevate the quality of one's magical power once again, which will take at least several years.
Wang Yu did not stop.
The Rejuvenating Elixir floated out of the Sea Heart Ring, emitting a fragrant aroma that brought a sense of complete comfort with just a whiff.
As the magical power began to condense, Wang Yu decisively swallowed it.
A new round of training quickly began.
The six thousand streams of magical power filling the Qi Sea began to compress, ten streams becoming one, and each time it underwent refinement and sublimation, it would flow into the Golden Core and circulate once.
This causes its diameter to increase by an almost imperceptible amount.
It was both a process of magical power enhancement and a process of strengthening the elixir, saving Wang Yu several years of time through the use of top-grade spiritual pills.
And so, another three months passed.
Six thousand streams of magical power were condensed into six hundred strands, and the golden elixir reached the limit that the human body could contain, with a diameter of nine centimeters, which can be described as perfect.
The magic power was so concentrated and viscous that it was only one step away from being liquid magic power.
This requires cultivating to the peak of Core Formation in the future, preparing for the challenges of Nascent Soul Formation, and the third Core Formation.
Normally, it's 1, 3, or 5 cents.
Not counting the time when breaking through to the Core Formation stage, cultivators actually only undergo the "Core Formation" process twice, but in the cultivation world it is still referred to as the "Core Formation" process three times.
This is because the third time is a process of breaking the elixir and forming a nascent soul.
The Golden Core is strengthened to its limit until it shatters completely, breaking and rebuilding. Then, one's own divine soul is merged into it to nurture a Nascent Soul!
As the saying goes:
Gold is a hard, durable, and indestructible substance.
Dan refers to something that is perfectly pure and without flaw.
However, nine is the ultimate number, and it also symbolizes the limit of all things in the world. To break the golden elixir, one needs to exceed the limit of nine li.
Therefore, those with profound foundations are often more likely to break through realms because their golden cores have reached their peak, while cultivators whose golden cores are not large enough have insufficient foundations.
Even with the Nascent Soul-Gathering Spiritual Object, it was impossible to break through it in one go and thus take advantage of this extremely dangerous opportunity to condense a Nascent Soul.
This is only the first step in achieving the Nascent Soul stage.
The subsequent three steps—Soul Fusion, Nascent Soul Formation, and Spirit Awakening—are increasingly perilous. A single misstep can lead to complete annihilation, as the protective power of breakthrough spirit objects and breakthrough pills is insufficient.
A true chasm!
As a candidate for the twelfth elder of Cold Blood Peak, Wang Yu had already learned about this information in advance, so he could consider it now and didn't need to be in such a hurry.
Each breakthrough in a major realm signifies a leap and qualitative change in one's life level, and it is often inseparable from the three elements of essence, energy, and spirit.
He just needs to keep going down this path.
The Nascent Soul stage... couldn't stop him!
Reaching the level of a nine-centimeter Golden Core accelerated the speed at which his body absorbed spiritual energy. There was no need to worry about the strength of his meridians, as his peak third-order body refinement realm was sufficient to withstand the most violent spiritual energy refining.
The daily mana growth rate has doubled, from "5 strands/day" to "10 strands/day", which is similar to the Qi Condensation stage in the Foundation Establishment stage.
The target has simply changed to a more difficult-to-train magical power.
However, this efficiency is far inferior to the advantages brought by the Foundation Establishment stage, and the advantages of the Heavenly Spiritual Root gradually come to an end in the Core Formation stage.
When Wang Yu broke through to the seventh level of the Core Formation realm, he started with 600 strands of mana. To reach the peak of the seventh level, he needed a full 3,000 strands of mana.
A difference of 2,400.
Converted to strands, that's 240,000 strands. Just by placing them in the storage area, it would take him a full 66 and a half years!
The growth rate is simply outrageous.
Taking into account his own cultivation speed and the enhancements from various small techniques, he should be able to add another "3 strands/day" of efficiency to the base.
By this calculation, it would take a full fifty-one years!
In about 170 years, he will be able to cultivate to the peak of Core Formation. At his current age, he will still be considered young then, perhaps not even over 300 years old.
With a lifespan of eight hundred years after reaching the Core Formation stage, he would have enough to break through to a higher realm.
However, it only took him, Wang, thirteen years to break through to the late stage of Core Formation. Suddenly needing so much time to accumulate experience, he couldn't help but feel a little lost.
"As expected, we still need to rely on more external forces."
After the breakthrough, Wang Yu flipped his palm and a pill bottle appeared in his hand. After tilting it, a round spiritual pill appeared in his palm.
The third top-grade Guanghan Pill, which is also the last one in his possession, can increase his maximum mana by about 150 units after being refined.
The refining speed of cultivation pills is extremely slow, and they will hardly affect the foundation of cultivation. At most, continuous use will only cause pill obstacles.
However.
Given the rarity of the main ingredients in third-tier cultivation pills, there's virtually no chance of developing a pill barrier from consuming a single pill, such as the main ingredient of the Guanghan Pill: laurel leaves.
It is known that only the [Wangyue Palace], one of the Seven Sects of Taihu Lake, has a stable output.
Wang Yu was able to forge one batch, which was a gift from the Blood-Eyed Demon Dragon during a transaction.
"However, during the great war between the righteous and the demonic forces four hundred years ago, some powerful figures in the demonic path might have snatched some rare 'laurel leaves' from the Moon Gazing Palace and used them to make some plans."
"In addition, the Ten Directions Frozen Demon Path's inherited pill formula, the Yin-Yang Pill, can also work on me. Its main ingredient is the Purple Yang Fruit, and even the pill formula follows the path of 'Yang generating Yin'..."
After pondering silently for a moment, Wang Yu slowly stood up.
After stretching his limbs, he looked towards the distant Blood Demon Sea. During this Blood Abyss trial, the Yin Erosion Palace had already emerged from the Blood Sea.
The number of disciples of the Holy Sect who entered was no less than the number of disciples who entered.
after all.
If you have the skill, you can enter the Yin Shi Palace repeatedly.
After so many years of exploration, the situation is basically clear. As long as people don't act recklessly or kill each other, the danger of the Yin Shi Palace itself is already very low.
However... with the added event of the [Blood Killing Stele], the layout and structure of the Yin Erosion Palace will also undergo corresponding changes.
The danger is definitely much greater than the one that was activated two hundred years ago.
How many people will die is up to fate.
After identifying the direction, Wang Yu hunted down Blood Demons to obtain the Myriad Spirit Blood Essence, and fled towards the direction where the Yin Erosion Palace had emerged.
This stuff, when refined into a Blood Pill, can also increase cultivation level. Its effect is no worse than the Guanghan Pill, and it doesn't have the pill barrier limitation. It's just a bit troublesome to process.
To avoid its side effects, the processing step through alchemy is essential, even if it wastes a lot of energy, because he doesn't want any problems with the golden core.
This item is essentially still a rare and precious material from the Blood Path.
As long as enough is refined, the long accumulation time in the late stage of Core Formation can be greatly reduced, which also tempted Wang Yu.
…………
…………
The Shadow Palace is a rectangular building that appears to have three floors. It is completely enclosed, and its interior cannot be seen from the outside.
It is one kilometer wide and twelve kilometers long.
The entire piece is predominantly black and red, and is carved with a large number of rare and exotic animals that only existed in ancient times.
The plaque, with its gold trim and blue background, features the three characters "Yin Shi Dian" (陰蚀殿) written in vermilion ink, making it extremely eye-catching.
It seems to be rooted in the Blood Demon Sea, where from time to time, creatures such as blood beasts and demons suddenly rush out, trying to break into the hall.
However, they were all killed by the cultivators guarding the entrance.
Almost all the fellow disciples who entered the Blood Abyss Holy Land gathered here.
A team comprised of seven direct disciples, hundreds of Blood Pavilion prodigies, members of the Nine Peaks Sect, and members from various Nascent Soul families…
This group of people was sparse; most of them had entered the Yin Shi Palace, and it had been two years since then. Only a few cats and kittens remained, guarding the vicinity of the palace gate.
The most eye-catching one among them.
Nothing could be more impressive than Zhuo Shouyun's team, which consisted of over a hundred people, some standing and some lying down, evenly distributed near the entrance of the Yin Shi Palace, like a spider spinning a web, waiting for his prey to come to him.
However, the long wait time inevitably makes some people impatient.
"Young Master Yun, we've waited so long and still haven't gained anything, while our fellow disciples entered the Yin Erosion Hall much earlier and must be reaping a bountiful harvest by now. You should compensate us for that."
These words triggered a domino effect.
A large number of fellow disciples with ill intentions responded.
"Yes, Young Master Yun is very wealthy, he shouldn't mind if the agreed-upon reward is tripled."
“What this fellow Daoist said makes sense.”
I think so too.
Zhuo Shouyun sneered and said rather forcefully.
"ridiculous……"
