CHAPTER 154: CORE FORMATION REALM

Too much blood qi affected the thinking ability of a cultivator , there was a reason why calmness and peace were required for comprehending something.

A Cultivator filled with a lot of external blood qi would be anything but calm-minded, so they were easily volatile to illusions.

Once they were in an illusion, they would waste their strength on their illusionary enemies and become exhausted, after that, they were as good as dead.

He could think of another way, but the second and third choices were the best.

Nonetheless, he would give the recipe for creating a similar strength-improving pill to his master, even without blood, he could create something like that, he just had to see if those herbs existed in this world or not.

"It seems the Central Region has some really good things..." This type of pill was really extraordinary here.

In the future, he would definitely visit even the core area of it, for now, he should cultivate.

Even if he opened all of his meridians and reached the Core Formation realm, it wouldn’t be a problem.

Elder Yan and Elder Gao already knew that he had gotten the yin essence of Senior Sister Xie, so they would understand his rapid progression.

He could even easily reach the Soul Sea realm only from the bead of his senior sister, of course, it would be only through yang qi, not chaos qi.

He had to cultivate again with his master to complete the process with chaos qi, after all, the time it would take to have his qi converted to chaos qi with only its contagious nature was too much right now.

"Oh well, let’s just cultivate..." Lin Feng began cultivating on the same spot. There was no need to disturb his Senior Sister.

Comprehending a Heavenly Grade technique took time, she might comprehend the earlier parts easily, but the higher parts would take a lot of time, especially if she hadn’t practiced a cultivation technique of such grade ever.

...

Lin Feng cultivated the whole night, and by using the yin essence, he was able to open all his meridians, now he was just a step away from reaching the Core Formation realm.

He didn’t stand up, he was going to breakthrough.

Forming a core was one of the major steps in cultivation. Many ordinary cultivators didn’t even reach the peak of Foundation Establishment, and those who reached it couldn’t guarantee success either.

This was the reason they give up and didn’t even try to form it if they weren’t confident in successfully forming one, as the only outcome of failure was death.

Even geniuses couldn’t guarantee 100 percent success in forming the core, much less those considered ordinary cultivators.

This was why most cultivators, even the geniuses, used a Core Formation pill to increase their chances of success.

This pill helped them calm their qi and enforce their meridians to push the qi to one point in the dantian. It also numbed the pain so that cultivators wouldn’t feel the disturbing pain while forming the core.

Basically, this pill weakened all the possible problems that would have made you fail your breakthrough while providing you enough qi to help you form the core.

This was really a miraculous pill, but even then, only 1 in 10 people usually had success in forming a core. Of course, this was only true for ordinary cultivators; a genius with this pill could definitely create their core successfully if they didn’t get distracted while forming it.

Lin Feng wasn’t going to take any pill, he was far more than confident in successfully creating his core.

He immediately drew the qi from the yin bead while moving all the qi in his body towards the dantian area. He could control his qi far better than anyone can even imagine.

Once the qi started collecting in his dantian, it was time to compress it, this was done by adding more qi through meridians, he had enough qi to easily form the core, but to speed the process, he absorbed qi from the yin bead too.

This way, he could use more qi to forcefully compress his qi into the dantian.

As the qi began collecting in a sphere shape, the area where it was getting collected was getting torn apart, although it was only a small amount, the pain was immense.

The more qi he pushed, the bigger the sphere became, it increased the pain further. Now came the challenging part where most cultivators failed.

It was to compress this qi to its limit by revolving the compressed qi, this would eventually solidify the core and form a small bead in this place known as the core of the cultivator.

This revolving of compressed qi was fatal if not handled properly, if any mistake happened, then it would go frenzied and explode inside the body, instantly killing the cultivator.

Lin Feng slowly began revolving the qi, since his qi was yang qi, it was heavier than normal qi, which inherently helped him in the formation of the core.

As he increased his revolving speed, he could feel the small qi strands in the center of the compressed qi joining together, slowly the whole compressed qi turned into liquid.

As he increased the revolving speed further, the liquid qi got compressed and slowly began turning into a solid core.

Slowly, it began growing, and once it reached the size of a pill, Lin Feng relaxed totally. The initial process was completed, other breakthroughs would happen naturally. The core would stabilize and absorb spirit qi from nature to fill itself completely.

He directed his attention to breaking through to the Bone Reinforcement stage. He could feel his bones were absorbing his blood qi already.

This breakthrough was going to turn even more painful, but since it didn’t require him to revolve his blood qi to increase absorption, it wasn’t inherently more fatal than the Core Formation realm.

As the blood qi kept getting absorbed, he finally felt the first burst of pain when the outer layer of his bones turned into dust, it didn’t go to waste as it was refined and absorbed into his bones again.

This process of refinement would keep going until his bones were completely refined.

The pain was immense, but it wasn’t something that could even make him flinch.
