Re-forming the Core, Greatly Increasing Strength
Chapter 152 Re-forming the Core, Greatly Increasing Strength
"Isn't a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the Great Perfection stage only able to condense a maximum of ninety-nine drops of liquid mana?"
"Ninety-nine drops of liquid mana is already the limit!"
Jiang Yun was filled with doubt and shock.
"One hundred and seventy drops of liquid mana? How is that possible?"
"If one forms a core with 170 drops of blood, how powerful would they be?"
"However, with so much liquid mana, the difficulty of forming the core will be greatly increased!"
After a moment of surprise and doubt, Jiang Yun was extremely excited.
Just think about all that liquid spiritual energy; once he successfully forms his core, his strength will definitely be stronger than that of an ordinary core-forming cultivator.
Even those genius cultivators who mastered top-tier Foundation Establishment techniques couldn't compare to Jiang Yun when they reached Core Formation.
However, upon further reflection, with so much liquid mana, compressing it to condense a golden core would definitely be much more difficult and would take much longer.
"It seems that the difficulty of forming the Core Formation this time has not decreased, but increased instead."
Jiang Yun shook his head and continued to observe the dantian and the liquid spiritual energy there with his divine sense.
"Every drop of liquid mana is very solid and pure, and the purity of the mana has not decreased."
"It seems that after the core was shattered, the maximum capacity of the dantian was expanded."
"Excellent! As expected of the Nine Revolutions Nirvana Shattering Elixir Technique!"
Jiang Yun was overjoyed and greatly excited to learn that every drop of liquid magic was extremely pure.
What does it mean to have 170 drops of liquid mana when one's cultivation level is at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment?
First of all, it means that Jiang Yun's magical power far surpasses that of other cultivators of the same level.
Other Foundation Establishment cultivators at the Great Perfection stage only have ninety-nine drops of liquid mana, while Jiang Yun's is equivalent to two of them.
Others can fight for three hundred rounds, he can fight for six hundred rounds!
Secondly, if one were to re-form the core based on 170 drops of liquid mana.
Then Jiang Yun's Golden Core quality will definitely be improved, not to mention he will be able to fight against cultivators of the same level.
"After shattering his core, his cultivation level dropped to the Foundation Establishment stage, but he gained seventy drops of liquid mana."
"I wonder how many drops of liquid mana will be generated from the second core shattering."
Jiang Yun was quite looking forward to the second time he would break through the elixir.
Although breaking the core is painful, the benefits are real and immense, and it's an incredible opportunity.
"I didn't expect the first attempt at breaking through the core to go so smoothly. Next, I'll strike while the iron is hot, completely stabilize my Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivation, and then refine the demon beast's inner core to form a new core!"
Jiang Yun calmed himself down, closed his eyes, and sat cross-legged on the jade platform.
He took out another Myriad Spirit Jade Dew Pill and swallowed it, consolidating his cultivation while successfully healing his injuries.
After all, one must be at least in peak condition when forming the Golden Core.
Inside the cave, spiritual energy abounded.
Time passed day by day.
Unbeknownst to anyone, within this cave dwelling, a Foundation Establishment cultivator with 170 drops of liquid mana in his dantian is preparing to form his core!
Three months later.
During this time, Jiang Yun devoted himself to healing his injuries and consolidating his cultivation.
After his cultivation level dropped to the Foundation Establishment stage, the method he used was the Zhou Tian Xing Chen Yin, which resulted in a somewhat slow recovery speed.
In just three months, he had completely consolidated his cultivation and the injuries from shattering his core had fully healed.
o
"Your condition has reached its peak; you can begin to re-form your Golden Core!"
Jiang Yun opened her eyes, a glint of light flashing in them.
My condition is now perfect, with no weakness whatsoever, and I can begin the process of forming my core!
"After shattering the core, the first stage of core formation!"
Jiang Yun muttered something under his breath and took out twelve third-tier demon beast inner cores from his storage ring.
There are twelve demon beast inner cores, including nine tier 3 low-level inner cores and three tier 3 mid-level inner cores.
"The spiritual energy required for the third core shattering and core formation will definitely be much greater than the previous two."
"All three mid-level third-tier inner cores will be reserved for use during the third core formation."
"However, with my mid-stage Core Formation body, even if I were only at the Foundation Establishment stage, I could withstand the violent energy of a mid-level third-tier demon core."
Having made up his mind, Jiang Yun took out four Tier 3 Elementary Inner Cores and placed them in front of him.
As soon as he took out these demon beast cores, Jiang Yun's eyes lit up.
"No! Core formation requires a vast amount of spiritual energy for support, which is why it needs high-level spiritual veins, third-tier demon cores, and Core Formation spiritual objects as aids."
help."
"And now I have 170 drops of liquid mana, so the requirement for spiritual energy support is even lower!"
"So it seems the difficulty of forming the Core Formation hasn't actually increased, but rather decreased!"
"It just takes a little longer to condense the golden core."
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun's spirits lifted.
He looked at the four pre-placed, low-level third-tier demon cores and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Perhaps it won't take four demon cores to successfully form a core!"
Jiang Yun was in high spirits and began his attempt to break through to the Core Formation stage.
This wasn't the first time he'd done something like forming a core; he was quite adept at it.
Jiang Yun passed the first hurdle, the Qi and Blood hurdle, effortlessly.
"With a physical body at the mid-stage of Core Formation, overcoming the Qi and blood barrier is a piece of cake, isn't it?"
Jiang Yun smiled and entered the second level, the magic power level.
It began to gather 170 drops of liquid magic power, compressing and condensing them together.
A few days later, Jiang Yun felt somewhat powerless.
"The external spiritual energy is insufficient; you still need to ingest the inner core."
Seeing this, he immediately picked up a third-tier, low-level demon beast inner core and threw it into his mouth.
The moment the inner core entered the abdomen, the spiritual energy began to surge violently, increasing the speed at which the golden core condensed.
Half a month later, Jiang Yun had completely refined the spiritual power of the demon core.
He began to consume the second demon core, continuing to condense his golden core.
Before we knew it, another month had passed.
The second demon core has been refined, and the golden core is about to take shape.
"Freeze!"
With 170 drops of liquid mana as a foundation, even someone with three spiritual roots would find two demon beast inner cores sufficient.
Seeing that it was almost done, Jiang Yun immediately put in more effort, using his divine sense to assist in condensing the golden core.
During this process, the spiritual energy from the outside world frantically converged towards Jiang Yun, forming a huge vortex of spiritual energy above the cave.
This situation has been going on for a month.
Outside, in the East District of Qixingfang.
Many Core Formation and Foundation Establishment cultivators had noticed the spiritual energy vortex above Jiang Yun's cave a month ago.
"The spiritual energy vortex has persisted for a month without dissipating; it seems the person will soon successfully condense their core, and there's hope for them to achieve that!"
A cultivator at the early stage of Core Formation looked at the vortex of spiritual energy above Jiang Yun's cave and said.
The Foundation Establishment cultivators passing by were filled with envy, including Ye Zhu from the General Affairs Pavilion.
As the steward in charge of renting out cave dwellings in the General Affairs Department, he naturally knew who lived in each cave dwelling.
"That old man, whose lifespan is nearing its end, is he really going to successfully form his core?"
Ye Zhu kept a close eye on the movement of the spiritual energy vortex above Jiang Yun's cave, filled with envy.
"To successfully form the Golden Core at the brink of death—what a fortunate event!"
Ye Zhu sighed deeply, then became somewhat worried, as he saw no hope of achieving the Core Formation stage.
"Sigh, when my lifespan is about to end, I'll give it my all!"
At this time, Jiang Yun was unaware of the attention from the outside world.
His breakthrough to the Core Formation stage has reached its most crucial moment.
"Coagulation Pill"
Just then, Jiang Yun inside the cave finally faced the most crucial moment.
"Freeze!"
With a low shout from Jiang Yun, the 170 drops of liquid mana in his dantian were finally compressed to their limit with the help of two third-tier low-level demon beast inner cores.
All the liquid magic power condensed together, never separating, and solidified into a golden elixir.
"It's finally done!"
"But why does this golden core look a bit larger than the previous one?"
Jiang Yun looked inward at his dantian and saw that the golden core had completely taken shape, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, he discovered that this golden pill was larger than the previous one.
Meanwhile, outside...
The vortex of spiritual energy that had been hovering above the cave seemed to be subjected to some extreme force at this moment, and collapsed with a crash.
Immediately afterwards, an aura of pressure belonging to a Core Formation stage cultivator swept outwards from Jiang Yun's cave dwelling in all directions.
go with.
"Congratulations on your successful Core Formation, fellow Daoist."
The cultivator who had just reached the early stage of Core Formation couldn't help but smile and sigh, as if recalling the scene when he first reached Core Formation.
"He really succeeded in forming his core!"
"Sigh, it hasn't even been a year yet, I guess they won't renew the lease on the cave dwelling."
On the other side, Ye Zhu was filled with envy.
At the same time, he was also somewhat moved, as it had only been seven months since Jiang Yun rented the cave dwelling, and he had already formed his core.
Inside the cave, before Jiang Yun could even begin to question the size of the Golden Core, the third stage of Core Formation, the Divine Sense Stage, arrived.
However, Jiang Yun had already opened up his sea of consciousness and possessed a very strong spiritual sense, so he successfully passed the spiritual sense test.
The process of breaking the elixir and then forming the new elixir, where the physical body and consciousness pass through easily, does not mean that the physical body and consciousness have not become stronger.
Jiang Yun could already feel that his physical body had become stronger, and his spiritual sense had also been enhanced.
However, there are restrictions within this cave, so it is unknown how much one's spiritual sense will increase after shattering and forming the core once.
"Never mind that for now, the Golden Core needs to be tempered with the Golden Core True Fire for a month!"
With this in mind, Jiang Yun once again calmed his mind and used his divine sense to guide the Golden Core True Fire to temper the Golden Core.
"After completing the Nine Revolutions Nirvana Shattering Pill Technique once, not only does the quality of the Golden Pill increase, but the power of the Golden Pill True Fire also becomes stronger."
When refining the Golden Elixir, Jiang Yun clearly felt that the quality of the Golden Elixir had been greatly improved, and the power of the Golden Elixir True Fire had also increased by half.
"This level of Golden Core quality is probably close to that of a Grade One Golden Core."
"If the second stage is completed, reaching the first-grade Golden Core stage will definitely be no problem, and the third stage will result in the Immaculate Golden Core stage!"
When Jiang Yun was refining the golden elixir, he couldn't wait to start the second elixir-breaking process.
However, one must eat one bite at a time, and one cannot rush spiritual practice.
"Once the cultivation level from the first Core Shattering and Core Formation is consolidated, then proceed with the second Core Shattering!"
Jiang Yun made up his mind to stop thinking about it and focus on refining the golden pill to make it more stable so that it would not collapse during battle.
Soon, a month later.
After completing the refining of the Golden Elixir, Jiang Yun shattered his elixir and returned to the Core Formation stage.
"This time, after shattering the core and then forming it again, my cultivation level has increased significantly."
"With my current cultivation level, I am invincible among early-stage Core Formation cultivators using only my magic power, without even using the Zhou Tian Star Sword Formation."
"The Nine Revolutions Shattering Elixir Technique truly lives up to its reputation; my lifespan has increased by a hundred years!"
Inside the cave, Jiang Yun slowly opened his eyes.
He felt the extraordinary golden core within his dantian and revealed a satisfied smile.
"Now that the core has been successfully formed again, the first stage of the Nine Revolutions Nirvana Core Shattering Technique can be considered complete."
"If one uses the first stage of the Shattering Pill Technique to condense a Nascent Soul, the probability of forming a Nascent Soul will increase by 30%."
"However, it would be best to complete the third reincarnation and increase the Nascent Soul formation probability to 100%!"
Cultivating the Nine Revolutions Shattering Pill Technique brings immense benefits.
Its most important function is that it can increase the probability of forming a Nascent Soul, making it a truly magical Golden Elixir Daoist technique.
"I didn't expect to have 170 drops of liquid mana after the core shattered. This time, I only used two third-tier demon cores to form my core."
"At this rate, the second core shattering and core formation will probably only require one third-tier demon core, and the third time will not require any external aids to form the core."
Jiang Yun lowered his head and put away the other two demon cores that he had prepared in advance.
Having prepared twelve demon cores was too conservative; in reality, we didn't need that many.
"Let me see how your strength has changed after the first transformation."
With a thought, Jiang Yun felt the golden core in his dantian begin to rotate.
In an instant, an immense and powerful force responded to his entire body without any obstruction.
"The purity of my magic power is higher, the speed of my spiritual energy circulation is far greater than before, and I can cast spells much faster."
"Correspondingly, the speed at which mana is restored also becomes faster."
As Jiang Yun felt the spiritual energy surging through his meridians, he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
He thought for a moment and then unleashed the Azure Ocean Heavy Yuan Shield.
The Azure Ocean Heavy Yuan Shield's protective range was much larger than before, and its shield was also thicker.
"With my current cultivation level, this Azure Sea Heavy Yuan Shield could withstand a full-force attack from a late-stage Core Formation cultivator without any problem!"
Jiang Yun was overjoyed. He removed the Azure Ocean Heavy Yuan Shield and then circulated his cultivation technique to restore the mana he had consumed while casting the spell.
Before long, his magical power was restored to its original state.
"Sure enough, after the quality of the Golden Core improved, the speed at which mana was restored also increased."
Jiang Yun was very satisfied with this.
He clenched his right fist and casually swung it, instantly unleashing a surge of energy as powerful as a dragon, producing a deep, booming sound.
"The process of shattering the core is also an extreme tempering of my physical body, which has been greatly enhanced."
"However, I am still far from breaking through to the late stage of Core Formation in body cultivation."
This shattering of the core also allowed Jiang Yun's physical body to grow stronger.
Significant improvements have been made in strength, power, speed, and recovery.
"Finally, there is the divine consciousness."
"After this Core Formation, I can clearly feel that my spiritual sense has been greatly enhanced."
Thinking this, Jiang Yun removed the restrictions in the cave, walked out of the cave, flew into the sky above the cave, and his divine sense spread out instantly.
As his divine sense spread out, he discovered that many Core Formation cultivators were watching him from the vicinity of the cave.
However, he ignored it and began to examine the strength of his divine sense.
Ten li, twenty li, thirty li, forty li.
They finally stopped after reaching 53 li.
Previously, Jiang Yun's spiritual strength was only forty-two li.
Now that he has completed the first revolution of the Nine Revolutions Shattering Pill Technique, his spiritual strength has reached fifty-three miles.
"Fifty-three li, an increase of eleven li. After one turn, the increase in spiritual power is still very obvious."
"My spiritual strength is now stronger than that of many late-stage Core Formation cultivators."
After checking the strength of his spiritual sense, Jiang Yun landed and returned to the entrance of the cave.
Several Core Formation cultivators came to visit.
"Congratulations on achieving Core Formation, fellow Daoist!"
These Core Formation cultivators came to visit and congratulate Jiang Yun on his successful Core Formation.
Many Foundation Establishment cultivators even came to congratulate him, including Ye Zhu from the General Affairs Pavilion.
"Congratulations on attaining the Golden Core Dao, Senior!" Ye Zhu hurriedly came to offer his congratulations and presented a small gift.
