Chapter 266: Golden Core (1)
Translator: 549690339
The transformation of the Primordial Dao Core Qi into Primordial Dao Core Essence was not over yet. After all, the Golden Core had yet to take shape. How could this be called the Golden Core Stage!
Zhu Wuwan continued to compress and condense the Primordial Dao Core Essence, making it purer and stronger. Naturally, its size also became smaller and smaller. The Primordial Dao Core Essence that was a few meters in radius was quickly compressed to a meter in radius…Two feet in circumference…One foot in circumference…
All the way to an inch radius!
At this time, the Primordial Dao Pill Origin had already been compressed into Primordial Dao Pill Crystals.
While Zhu Wuyan was compressing and condensing the Primordial Dao Core Qi and Primordial Dao Core Origin, there was also a huge pressure that covered the sky and earth, causing Zhu Wuyan’s body to bear huge danger. At the same time, he also obtained huge benefits.
His skin, muscles, bones, internal organs, and bone marrow were all strengthened by more than ten percent. The toughness of his lower dantian, middle dantian, and Niwan Palace had also increased by more than thirty percent. The improvement in his lower dantian was especially shocking, reaching more than fifty percent.
Everyone in the cultivation world knew that the lower dantian was the weakest. Under normal circumstances, it could not contain Genuine Qi and Dan Power. Only those who entered the path through martial arts could refine the lower dantian step by step. Only then could it contain the power of Genuine Qi and Genuine Vitality, allowing the immortal cultivators who entered the path through martial arts to obtain more vigorous immortal power.
But even so, by the time an immortal cultivator condensed the Core Power, the lower dantian would be useless and unable to accommodate the Core Power anymore. Unless one was like Zhu Wuyang, who relied on the method of ascending crystals to form Qi, allowing the lower dantian to accept the impact of Core Qi, Core Essence, and Core Crystals step by step, and at the same time, it would be tempered and improved under pressure.
In this way, even if an immortal cultivator had stepped into the Aurous Core Stage, they could still rely on their lower dantian to accommodate the power of the core. They would have a more vigorous power of the core than cultivators of the same level.
Zhu Wuyang was like this!
The reason why Zhu Wuwan chose to enter the Golden Core Stage in this way, not hesitating to take a huge risk, was also because she wanted to improve her Dantian.
After all, which Immortal Cultivator did not want to own a fuel tank? Not only could a fuel tank make the Immortal Cultivators more durable, but it could also boost their offensive and defensive capabilities at critical moments.
If his lower dantian was filled with elixir power, it could at least increase Zhu Wuyang’s combat power by more than 30%. One could imagine how great the benefits were.
Zhu Wuan’s cultivation foundation was already very terrifying. With the 30% increase in combat strength, although Zhu Wuan was an early-stage Golden Core cultivator, she could definitely defeat cultivators above the late-stage Golden Core realm.
Of course, if a late-stage Golden Core cultivator could reach the fifth or sixth transformation of the Golden Core, it would be more difficult for Zhu Wuwan to deal with them. It was very likely that they would fail.
However, if it was just a First Transformation Golden Core, Second Transformation Golden Core, or Third Transformation Golden Core, Zhu Wuwan could easily defeat it.
After the Primordial Dao Pill Crystal appeared, what Zhu Wuyang needed to do next was to polish and condense the Primordial Dao Pill Crystal bit by bit to turn it into a true Golden Core.
At that time, Zhu Wuyang would be considered to have stepped into the Golden Core Stage and become a new Perfected Being in the cultivation world.
Aurous Core Stage cultivators could be called Perfected Cultivators and were qualified to be regarded as True Immortals by ordinary mortals. They had a lifespan of a thousand years, which was more than ten times that of ordinary mortals.
At this point, immortal cultivators could be considered to have completely distanced themselves from ordinary mortals. Not only was the difference in strength between the two sides shocking, but the essence of life had also undergone a huge transformation. In the eyes of many immortal cultivators, aurous core stage cultivators were no longer strictly human.
Therefore, he could be called a true person!
If an ordinary Pseudo Core Stage cultivator wanted to reach the Golden Core Stage, they would need to polish the True Essence Crystal. However, Zhu Wuwan was polishing the Core Crystal at this moment. The difference between the two was simply like heaven and earth. They could not be mentioned in the same breath.
Although the steps seemed to be the same, they were actually ten times or a hundred times different.
Moreover, the Quintessential Essence crystals that ordinary Fake Core Realm cultivators polished were often several thousand meters in diameter. They needed to be polished and condensed bit by bit. It would take an unknown amount of time, and even if they spent their entire lives, they would not be able to complete it. It would take at least decades.
However, what Zhu Wuyang was polishing and condensing was only a Pill Crystal that was about an inch in diameter. It was much easier and required much less time.
As time passed, the Primordial Dao Pill Crystal in Zhu Wuyang’s dantian shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye.
An inch wide…Half an inch…The size of a soybean…All the way to the size of a grain of rice!
When the Primordial Dao Pill Crystal was condensed and compressed to this point, it had already become completely silver, round, and flawless. Most importantly, a third layer of golden seal characters had actually appeared on it.
The Primordial Dao Golden Core had already condensed!
The most terrifying thing was that Zhu Wuyan had just condensed the Initial Stage Golden Core, but there were already three layers of golden seal characters revolving on it, reaching the limit of the Initial Stage Golden Core.
Not to mention the thickness, just the purity alone was already at the peak of the early Aurous Core stage. It was comparable to the purity of the Aurous Core of ordinary late Aurous Core cultivators.
What Zhu Wuyang needed to do next was to continuously accumulate Pill Power and raise the Golden Core to the limit of the initial stage. There would not be any bottlenecks during this period, and Zhu Wuyang did not need to condense the Golden Core again to form the Golden Seal.
The journey was smooth and unobstructed!
Most importantly, Zhu Wuwan’s chances of advancing to the Golden Core realm had already soared to more than 15%.
Under normal circumstances, the chances of an ordinary Golden Core Stage Perfected Being advancing to the next major realm were less than one in ten thousand. Compared to him, Zhu Wuwan’s chances were more than a thousand times higher.
According to Ou Yangming, above the Golden Core Stage was the Nascent Soul Stage. The so-called Core Breaking and Nascent Birth referred to this stage.
As long as one could step into the Nascent Soul stage, their lifespan would soar to more than three thousand years, three times that of the Golden Core stage. They were even qualified to be called Patriarchs. Of course, many immortal cultivators were used to calling them old monsters.
Nascent Soul Realm old monster!
Every Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator was qualified to establish a sect and establish a great empire. Even the super empires in the Southern Wasteland were nothing but ants in front of them.
He could easily make mountains collapse and rivers flow backward with just a wave of his hand. Possessing terrifying power was Ou Yangming’s ultimate dream in his life. Unfortunately, he was only at the early-stage of the Golden Elixir Realm, so he would never be able to reach the legendary Nascent Soul Realm.
There had never been a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles around the Hundred Poisons Sect. From this, one could tell how powerful and rare Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators were.
Now, there was already a 15% chance that Zhu Wanhao could enter the Nascent Soul realm. If any immortal cultivation sect knew about this, they would probably fight over Zhu Wanhao.
Even the top cultivation sects in the Southern Wasteland would come to recruit Zhu Wanhao. One could imagine the power of a third-tier Golden Core cultivator.
Now that his strength had increased to this point, it was time to consider going to the main sect. There should be everything he needed there!
