Chapter 1344
Ling Chengxia's Regrets of Entering the Nascent Soul Stage
“Brother Pengyun, sister-in-law Siyi, you two are truly blessed. Not only have you two been able to enter the Nascent Soul stage, but even your offspring Cheng Xia has been able to do so. This means that your lineage has produced three Nascent Souls.”
"Even if this is placed in the ten thousand year history of the Northern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation World, it is estimated that it is rare to exist."
"This really makes me envious."
Ling Pengxing, a Yuanying ghost cultivator from the family who was also watching from the sidelines, said with a particularly serious smile.
In the ten thousand years since the development of the Northern Wilderness's immortal cultivation world, although many Nascent Souls have emerged, and there are even Nascent Soul forces that have been passed down for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, it is still extremely difficult to enter the Nascent Soul stage.
There are at least millions or even tens of millions of people in this world of immortal cultivators, but there are only a dozen or so local Nascent Soul cultivators.
This not only requires extremely high qualifications, but also requires an extremely huge cost.
Therefore, for those Nascent Souls to enter this realm is already an opportunity for them, and they have no means to improve the qualifications of their descendants, so whether their direct descendants can enter the Nascent Soul depends entirely on fate.
Indirectly, for families like Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi, the probability of having three Yuanyings is naturally smaller.
Ling Lihao, the Nascent Soul cultivator with natural spiritual roots who was also watching Ling Chengxia's breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage, Ling Pengcheng, the family's Nascent Soul with a golden holy body of morality, Ling Penglin, the family's strongest third-rank top-grade formation master, and other older generation clan members who had a close relationship with Ling Pengyun, all congratulated him one after another.
They also have a good relationship with Ling Chengxia, so naturally they need to come and observe such a major event as Ling Chengxia's breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage.
As for ordinary members of the tribe, it is difficult for them to appear here.
In fact, three years ago, when Ling Chengxia was trying to reach the Nascent Soul stage, Ling Pengyun was concerned about the large number of people in Jinchi Mountain, so he arranged for a large number of clansmen who were originally stationed there to leave that place and come to this golden spiritual mountain, Jinling Mountain, to temporarily settle down.
In addition, Ling Pengyun's daughter Ling Chengxin, a genius in spiritual plants, and his youngest son Ling Chengmie, who possesses the spiritual bodies of thousands of beasts, were also here. However, at this moment, the two were very happy that their eldest brother Ling Chengxia could enter the Nascent Soul stage, and they were already grinning from ear to ear.
at the same time.
As everyone chatted, the joy on Ling Pengyun and his wife's faces grew even more.
Afterwards, everyone chatted briefly for a few more sentences and then turned their attention back to Ling Chengxia's attempt to reach the Nascent Soul stage.
…………
The Nascent Soul spiritual energy tide that Ling Chengxia had triggered only had four days left to last, and it was gone in a flash.
This day.
The Golden Wing Mountain where he was in seclusion returned to peace.
But not long after, an extremely huge calamity cloud appeared on the Golden Wing Mountain.
The black calamity clouds kept jumping around, and an aura of terror emanated from it, making ordinary people's scalps tingle.
Moreover, as it brewed for a while, a terrifying thunderbolt was created from it, whose power was comparable to the full force of a golden elixir realm master.
But at this moment, countless array patterns suddenly flew out from the Golden Wing Mountain, and finally gathered into an extremely large and solid array, sheltering the entire Golden Wing Mountain.
The next moment, the thunder struck it, and suddenly an extremely huge roar was heard.
An incomparably huge wave of spiritual power suddenly spread out.
Even the ground within a radius of ten miles began to shake.
However, the power of that huge formation was quite impressive. The powerful thunderbolt that struck it only shook the formation slightly.
Immediately afterwards, the calamity cloud dropped eleven extremely powerful calamity thunders one after another.
The power of the last few thunders even reached the Nascent Soul level, or even the late Nascent Soul level.
It was precisely because of this that the formation began to shake, but fortunately, it survived the disaster.
Then, the remaining power of the calamity cloud in the sky transformed into a piece of nectar and fell into the Golden Wing Mountain.
At this time, there was a cave in the mountain.
Ling Chengxia, who was in seclusion here, raised his hand and waved it. With his vast spiritual power, he transformed into a big hand and absorbed all the nectar into his body.
And this dew is the essence of heaven and earth. With its help, the Nascent Soul that had just condensed immediately began to nourish its body, and it also began to gradually transform.
Indirectly, his aura became stronger and stronger, and finally he entered the Nascent Soul level.
quite a while.
When everything stopped, he finally opened his eyes, but there was not much joy on his face, but instead countless regrets.
"After all, I was unable to make my Nascent Soul quality reach that level. What a pity!"
He sighed helplessly.
But in the next moment, his eyes suddenly became blurred, and there was an inexplicable sense of confusion coming from his body. Then he gradually closed his eyes, as if he had entered into meditation.
…………
at the same time.
A large number of Ling family cultivators who were originally stationed at Jinchi Mountain but temporarily left that place due to Ling Chengxia's attack on the Nascent Soul stage and moved to the nearby Jinyuan Xiaoling Mountain had already been alarmed. Therefore, after they saw the thunder above Jinchi Mountain stop, they guessed the reason.
"Why does the aura of the cultivator who just successfully broke into the Nascent Soul realm resemble that of Patriarch Cheng Xia? Didn't the clan say that his cultivation had just reached the Golden Core Perfection not long ago, and that he was still some distance away from breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm? And it is rumored that there doesn't seem to be any Nascent Soul spiritual objects in the clan. In this case, was Patriarch Cheng Xia able to break through to the Nascent Soul realm by some other chance? Or did he break through alone?"
"........."
Thinking of this, the monks were all shocked.
Although Ling Chengxia was recognized by the family early on as one of the members with the best chance of reaching the Nascent Soul stage due to his extraordinary talent, the difficulty of reaching the Nascent Soul stage is well known to everyone. Moreover, according to everyone's understanding, Ling Chengxia has only been practicing Taoism for more than 300 years.
"If you want to reach the Nascent Soul stage, the first step is to cultivate to the Golden Core Perfection stage. So, doesn't it only take him three hundred years to reach that stage?"
"This cultivation speed is truly terrifying. Even with the support of the great ancestor Peng Yun and countless resources, it is probably not easy."
"After all, resources are only part of the cultivation process. Secondly, it also depends on the cultivator's own qualifications. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so few powerful people with perfect golden elixir in this world."
"In addition, he can enter the Nascent Soul stage at his age, which is estimated to be stronger than more than 70% of the Nascent Souls in the history of the Immortal Cultivation World."
"It seems that the family will have another extraordinary person! I just wonder if he can surpass his ancestor Pengyun in the future?"
"........."
All the Ling family cultivators in Jinyuan Xiaoling Mountain couldn't help but show some anticipation.
…………
The top of Jinyuan Xiaoling Mountain.
"Why hasn't Cheng Xia come out yet?"
Ling Pengyun, who had been paying attention to the situation of the fifth-level spiritual mountain Jinchi Mountain, was a little puzzled when he saw that Ling Chengxia, who had survived the thunderbolt, had not yet appeared. Then, he mobilized his spiritual sense to explore and immediately found that Ling Chengxia's aura was a little strange, and he was particularly familiar with this.
"Enlightenment?"
"I didn't expect Cheng Xia to have such an opportunity."
"But it's okay. After this enlightenment, I think he will gain a lot."
In addition, since Ling Pengyun is a Nascent Soul cultivator, he has a better understanding of the situation of Nascent Soul cultivators, so he was able to notice some special places.
"Although Cheng Xia has just entered the Nascent Soul stage, his cultivation is extremely solid, as if he had gone through hard training to consolidate his cultivation after breaking through the Nascent Soul stage. This kind of thing will not happen easily. In all likelihood, the quality of his Nascent Soul is probably relatively high."
"It seems that this kid also had a good opportunity during the remaining four days of spiritual energy tide after condensing his Nascent Soul."
"I just don't know the exact quality of his Nascent Soul..."
Seeing this, the Yuanying of Yan Siyi and other family members nearby also noticed this situation, so they immediately showed curiosity.
After several more days, there was movement in Jinchi Mountain.
A streak of light suddenly flew out from the Jinchi Mountain and finally landed on the top of the Jinyuan Xiaoling Mountain where Ling Pengyun and others were.
His figure also appeared.
That was Ling Chengxia who had been in seclusion in Jinchi Mountain recently.
His face was full of joy at this moment, and he immediately bowed to Ling Pengyun and others.
"My elders, I just broke through to the Nascent Soul stage. I couldn't control my aura for a while, so I caused some trouble. I hope you elders won't blame me."
"In addition, I will always remember the kindness of all the elders in protecting the Dharma for me."
Then, he bowed to his parents Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi who were standing in the crowd with proud expressions on their faces.
“Mom and Dad, I have lived up to your expectations… Moreover, after I entered the Nascent Soul stage, my strength has greatly improved. I will be able to help you in the future. If you need me in the future, I will definitely stand by your side!”
Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi were extremely satisfied when they heard this, and their happier expressions became even more intense. What Ling Chengxia said was one of the reasons why they had supported him to enter the Nascent Soul stage.
"Okay! Okay! Okay! If your mother and I need you, we will definitely take you with us."
"However, Cheng Xia, what is the quality of the Nascent Soul you condensed? In addition, are the opportunities you have gained in enlightenment okay?"
Ling Pengxing, a Nascent Soul ghost cultivator standing by, showed some curiosity when he heard this, but then he thought of something deeper, so he took advantage of the moment when Ling Chengxia didn't speak and spoke.
"Brother Pengyun, sister-in-law Siyi, nephew Chengxia, you and your family can chat first. I will go to the mountain to see those clansmen who have been aroused. Otherwise, if we let them do whatever they want, I am afraid that it will not be long before the news of Cheng Xia's Nascent Soul will spread."
The others on the side immediately understood that Ling Pengxing's attempt to appease the tribesmen here was fake, and it was actually just to prevent Ling Chengxia from having any concerns and causing embarrassment.
At the same time, knowing Ling Chengxia's Nascent Soul qualifications is not a good thing. If this matter is accidentally leaked in the future and leads to the knowledge of demon forces or forces that have conflicts of interest with the Ling family, Ling Chengxia, who has extraordinary Nascent Soul qualities, will be in danger.
For this reason, the older generation of the rest of the family members present left one after another with various excuses.
After hearing this, Ling Pengyun thought about it and nodded to agree to the matter.
Then, Ling Pengxing and others left quickly.
Only Ling Pengyun's family of five were left here, namely Ling Pengyun, Yan Siyi, eldest son Ling Chengxia, daughter Ling Chengxin, and youngest son Ling Chengmie.
"Dad, actually there is no need for Peng Xingbo and the others to leave. They are all reliable people. Even if they knew the quality of my Nascent Soul, they probably wouldn't tell anyone else."
Ling Chengxia couldn't help but sigh as she watched Ling Pengxing and other elders leaving.
"Since it was you, Peng Xingbo and others who proposed to temporarily leave this place to avoid suspicion, then there is nothing wrong with that."
"Besides, safety still needs to be the top priority in this matter."
"Tell me about your gains."
Ling Pengyun said with a smile.
Speaking of this, Ling Chengxia couldn't help but show a hint of regret on his face.
"I have only managed to condense the Nascent Soul to the upper level, and I am still a little far from condensing the special Nascent Soul."
"As for the opportunity to realize the truth, it's quite good. I have made great gains in magic and supernatural powers. I estimate that as long as I can master them thoroughly, it won't be long before I can comprehend many magics of water and fire attributes to perfection. By then, I will probably be considered to be a relatively strong practitioner of the law."
"In addition, I also took the opportunity to use my own water and fire essence to comprehend a life-long magic, called Water Soul Fire Soul Slash. This move is quite powerful, and once you are injured by its power, the water and fire poison will invade your body, gradually corroding your soul, and it is difficult to eliminate it easily."
"And I am confident that within ten years, I can perfect it to a superior level. By then, this technique may have a chance to become a magical power."
Ling Pengyun, Yan Siyi and other close relatives immediately showed countless brilliant looks.
"Very good, very good!"
"I didn't expect you to reach this point."
A superior Nascent Soul is no ordinary thing. Once you obtain it, your talent will be greatly improved. As long as there are enough resources, there is a high probability that you will be able to enter the late Nascent Soul stage in the future, and there is also a slight probability that you can enter the perfect state.
Even cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage are considered truly superior figures in this world.
Those who have reached the perfect Nascent Soul stage are the strongest group of people below the Spirit Transformation stage.
In this way, Ling Chengxia's future potential can be imagined.
As for Ling Chengxia, due to the opportunity of enlightenment, he made quite a lot of progress in magic, especially the innate magic that he created himself, which was even better.
Although its power may not be comparable to those innate techniques recorded in the exercises he practiced for the time being, those innate techniques were not created by him after all. Therefore, unless he has comprehended those innate techniques to an extremely high level, it will be difficult for him to perfect them.
But the Water Soul and Fire Soul Slash that he created by himself is different. This technique originated from himself. As long as he makes gradual progress, he can perfect it to a higher level.
Therefore, this innate magic of his is nothing short of a means of continuous enhancement.
In the future, there is every chance that it will evolve into an innate magical power, or even an innate great magical power.
For this reason, Ling Chengxia was particularly happy about it, but the quality of his Nascent Soul did not meet Ling Chengxia's expectations for himself.
After all, he had previously obtained a primordial essence, plus a portion of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Qi and Earth Soul Essence that could increase the probability of condensing a Nascent Soul. In this way, it stands to reason that the probability of condensing a Nascent Soul should be at least 70% to 80%.
As for the probability of being able to condense a special Nascent Soul, it is at least 20% to 30%.
But unfortunately, he only seized the 70% to 80% of the opportunities, instead of the 20% to 30% of the opportunities.
It was precisely because of this that Ling Chengxia felt that an opportunity was in front of him, but he was unable to seize it. As a result, he naturally felt regretful. (End of this chapter)
