Chapter 124 People from Central Plains
With this in mind, Chen Yi no longer hesitated to expend resources.
Since the danger zone is so close, instead of being overly cautious, we might as well go all out.
He took out all the remaining second-grade high-quality magnets, preparing to forge an ultra-large thunder spirit storage artifact—like carrying an extra-large water jug to fill it with water, so as to save himself the trouble of traveling back and forth.
The method of fusing the Golden Crystal Core and even the Golden Crystal Marrow obtained from the monk Linghui was priceless to Chen Yi.
Although his Five Elements Golden Radiance and Three-Colored Golden Crystal are no less powerful than the Golden Crystal Core, this advanced method of the orthodox Vajra Technique has irreplaceable significance.
Because the golden crystal core is the foundation for cultivating the Vajra Kung Fu's subsequent supernatural powers.
Without mastering this method, one cannot practice the more powerful third-tier Vajra Body Refining Divine Power.
More importantly, this characteristic of being able to be nurtured by divine thought allows the golden crystal core to grow continuously as one's cultivation level increases, much like a natal magic weapon.
When one reaches the late stage of the third tier, the power of unleashing all the crystal cores in an instant is the true terrifying killing move of the Vajra Skill.
Chen Yi naturally devoted himself to studying.
However, as Linghui said, this method is extremely difficult.
Even within the main temple of the Vajra Temple in Zhongzhou, there are only a handful of cultivators who can perfectly fuse sixty strands of golden light into a "golden crystal core".
Those who, at such a young age, have mastered an upper core are all individuals who possess extraordinary opportunities.
Chen Yi suspected that the monk Linghui's identity was definitely not simple.
When he sat down to cultivate in the minefield earlier, he seemed to have a momentary feeling of being spied on.
At that moment, he even had murderous thoughts.
Fortunately, the feeling of being spied on only lasted for a moment before the other party withdrew.
Buddhist supernatural powers have always been mysterious and unpredictable—the divine eye can see cause and effect, the knowledge of past lives can see the cycle of reincarnation, and some great beings accumulate merit over many lifetimes, which then erupts in one day to directly attain enlightenment.
Chen Yi thought about it more and more and it seemed very possible.
He dared not underestimate it.
"From now on, we must keep our distance from this young monk. He may be someone with great karmic consequences."
He secretly became aware of his surroundings.
Beneath Linghui's seemingly harmless smile, there may lie a deeper secret.
Such people, burdened with great fortune and karma, can easily be drawn into dangerous vortexes if they are not careful.
but,
It must be said that the method of fusing the golden crystal core was truly ingenious.
The young monk Linghui estimated that if Chen Yi could refine the Vajra Core in twenty or thirty years, it would already be an extraordinary talent for body refinement.
In fact, he overestimated Chen Yi's abilities.
If relying solely on his own arduous cultivation, given Chen Yi's current level of attainment, it would probably take him a hundred years to achieve mastery.
After all, the condensation of this Vajra core not only requires the perfect fusion of a large amount of golden light, but also involves the profound resonance between divine sense and physical body.
The difficulty of creating a golden crystal core with thirty strands of golden light combined is several times greater than that of creating a golden crystal core with ten strands combined.
Fortunately, he has a system that can provide some minor assistance.
Coincidentally,
He currently has a diamond fruit in his storage bag.
Moreover, if that's not enough, it seems the Crimson Flame Sparrow hasn't eaten the Diamond Fruit hidden in its belly feathers yet.
Chen Yi glanced at the Crimson Flame Sparrow in the spirit pet pouch, his eyes flashing.
next moment,
Chen Yi composed himself and took out the golden diamond fruit from his storage bag.
The surface of the diamond is covered with mysterious patterns, radiating a heart-palpitating energy fluctuation, and faint golden spiritual light can be seen flowing under the peel.
He placed the diamond fruit in his palm, and with a thought, activated the system, which immediately sent a notification:
[Detected spiritual energy from the Diamond Fruit, currently consuming 15%]
Chen Yi is no longer the same as before; devouring quasi-third-tier spiritual fruits is effortless for him.
Five-colored spiritual light emanated from his palm, and the spiritual energy within the Vajra Fruit was extracted like rivers flowing into the sea, transforming into strands of golden energy that merged into his body.
Within a dozen or so breaths, the Vajra spirituality within the fruit was completely devoured, leaving only the fruit pulp containing the spiritual power of the pulp.
"Here you go." Chen Yi casually tossed the fruit to the Crimson Flame Sparrow beside him. The silly bird flapped its wings happily, snatched the fruit in its mouth, and its eyes were full of gratitude.
then,
Chen Yi took a deep breath, the five-colored spiritual light in his palm receded, and he turned to fully activate the Vajra Skill.
Thirty strands of pure golden light suddenly shone within his body, like sharp golden needles suspended between his internal organs, repelling each other and vibrating incessantly.
"melt!"
With a thought, he manipulated the golden spiritual torrent of the Vajra Fruit to flow into his meridians. At the same time, the Azure Dragon Jade in his right hand shone brightly, and the spiritual essence of the Azure Dragon Jade enveloped the restless golden radiance like gentle water.
The moment when two spiritual forces converged—
scoff!
The golden radiance resembled metal scorched by a raging fire, with fine cracks appearing on its surface, which then slowly healed under the harmonizing influence of the Azure Dragon Jade's spiritual energy.
Chen Yi's forehead was covered in cold sweat; the process was more difficult than he had expected.
Although he had previously condensed ten strands of third-order golden crystal into one, the repulsive force of thirty strands of golden light increased almost exponentially!
"Thunder Spirit Power, shatter!"
He suddenly activated the Thunder Spirit Body Forging Technique, and golden bone thunder patterns burst forth, condensing into an extremely fine wisp of third-order thunder within his body.
The lightning bolt, like a blade, slashed into the golden light, instantly shattering all thirty strands of golden light!
—Click! Click! Click!
The golden light shattered into countless fine golden threads, which, guided by the spirituality of the Vajra Fruit, intertwined and entwined like silk threads.
The spirituality of the Azure Dragon Chalcedony is like a flexible net, firmly binding these golden threads and preventing them from rebounding.
hum!
Finally, the thirty strands of golden light completely merged into a pale golden crystal with distinct edges.
"It's finally done."
Chen Yi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Having succeeded in combining thirty strands of golden light, Chen Yi began to experiment with combining even more strands.
Thirty-one strands were barely successful.
But when he tried to fuse the thirty-second strand, the difficulty suddenly increased.
—The spirituality of the Vajra Fruit and Azure Dragon Jade Marrow began to be rapidly depleted, and the fusion of each wisp of golden light required a great deal of mental effort.
Finally, after consuming most of the spiritual essence of a Azure Dragon Jade Marrow, Chen Yi barely managed to increase the number of golden crystal cores he condensed to thirty-five strands.
He frowned, sensing the nearly depleted spiritual reserves of the Vajra Fruit within his body, and his gaze involuntarily drifted towards the Vajra Fruit hidden in the belly feathers of the Crimson Flame Sparrow.
"Chirp!" The Crimson Flame Sparrow took a step back alertly, its wings instinctively protecting its abdomen.
Then, under Chen Yi's gaze, it reluctantly took out the diamond fruit.
Seeing this, Chen Yi chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I won't touch you."
The effectiveness of this near-third-tier Vajra Fruit is already a drop in the ocean for Chen Yi at present.
To further increase the number of golden radiance layers in the condensed golden crystal core.
It might be necessary to use a third-tier Vajra Fruit, or a similar spiritual substance.
"I wonder how effective the White Dragon Jade from the Jade Dragon Sect is?"
White Dragon Jade focuses on enhancing and nurturing the soul's power. It can be cultivated with divine sense over a long period, and even absorbed into the soul's sea. After a hundred years of interaction with it...
It can be allowed to melt into the sea of consciousness, completely solidifying the strength of the soul sea.
Another function of its is to integrate the five elements, including the five elements at the soul level. However, apart from the sect leader, other people in the Jade Dragon Sect cannot use it because their soul quality is not high enough.
"But if obtaining even a single Azure Dragon Jade is so difficult, will the Jade Dragon Sect easily relinquish the White Dragon Jade?"
Chen Yi felt a slight headache.
"Never mind, this matter cannot be rushed."
He composed himself, thinking, "Once I improve my strength further, I'll have a chance to contend with the Jade Dragon Sect. After all, I'm just their 'nominal disciple'."
Suppressing his distracting thoughts, Chen Yi began to focus his inner energy on his dantian.
The newly condensed gold crystal core is suspended within it, its entire body as clear as glass, and its surface is covered with fine diamond patterns.
Golden light flowed within the core, sometimes solid as iron, sometimes sharp as a sword, radiating a heart-pounding fluctuation.
Chen Yi carefully probed it with his third-order divine sense and immediately felt the terrifying power contained within—indestructible in defense and unstoppable in offense, it was a killing weapon born for the ultimate body refinement.
Chen Yi entered the golden crystal core with a wisp of third-order divine sense.
As divine sense entered, the golden crystal core seemed to come alive, emanating and absorbing golden light from within.
Gradually, a connection was established between his mind and Chen Yi's, and finally, that wisp of divine thought completely merged with the golden crystal core.
After his divine senses were completely integrated, Chen Yi discovered that the golden crystal core could change its form at will—when defending, it would cover his internal organs like a tortoise shell; when attacking, it would transform into sharp golden needles that converged at his fist.
You could even try attaching a wisp of electric arc to the gold crystal core to enhance its lightning attribute.
"This gold crystal is more effective in combat, but it's a bit of a waste to use it for body tempering."
In the initial stages of Jade Bone and Refining Impurities, using only Three-Colored Xin Crystal and Five-Colored Golden Radiance was the most efficient method.
"If one day I can condense five-colored golden crystals, or even five-colored golden crystal cores, then using them in the middle and late stages of refining might be even more suitable."
Chen Yi thought to himself.
After getting the gold crystal core,
Chen Yi began to formally attempt Thunder Spirit Body Tempering.
He has already mastered the basics.
He wanted to try and see if he could achieve the same result as the Five Elements Body Refinement.
A brand new lightning crystal was formed.
In particular, if one day his Thunder Crystal could fuse with the Five Elements Metal Crystal,
Chen Yi couldn't even imagine the effects of such body-strengthening techniques.
Deep within the City Lord's Mansion in the Immortal City by the Lake and Sea.
The array's light barrier flowed like ripples on water, separating the inside from the outside into two worlds.
Inside the hall, a dozen figures stood clearly on either side, an invisible pressure permeating the air.
On the left, the nine most outstanding talents of Qi, led by Qin Chengcheng, are lined up in a row:
Qin Chengcheng was dressed in purple, with exquisite features, and her body was faintly rippling with musical rhythm.
Qi Wuba was as tall and imposing as a mountain, his golden bones faintly gleaming.
Qi Yourong was dressed in white, her clothes whiter than snow, with a jade belt at her waist adorned with cloud patterns unique to royalty.
Qi Yunxi holds a folding fan, seemingly lazy but actually hiding a sharp edge;
The puppeteer Ning Bu'er was short and wiry, and sitting on the puppet ape that was about ten feet tall, he looked harmless.
Feng Qingjun's long robes fluttered, as if accompanied by a gentle breeze;
Leng Jianfei held a long sword in his arms, his whole being like a drawn sword.
Two other young talents stood on either side, exuding an extraordinary aura.
On the right, there were only three people, yet they made the temperature in the entire hall seem to drop a few degrees.
Qiu Li, who was in the lead, was dressed in a black outfit and stood tall and straight like a pine tree.
Her face was exquisite but cold as ice, only when she looked at Qin Chengcheng did a hint of warmth flash in her eyes.
What's most chilling is that, despite not emitting any spiritual energy fluctuations, she gives off a sense of oppression as if facing heavenly lightning directly—as if she weren't a person, but a bolt of lightning from the heavens that could erupt at any moment.
To her left, the swordsman "Left Hand Holding" stood with his sword in his hand.
This person was simply standing there casually, yet he gave off a sharp feeling as if he could pierce the sky.
Leng Jianfei's face turned pale after just one glance at him—the other party had clearly condensed sword intent, a level that only elders in his sect could reach.
Ji Wufa on the right, however, presents a completely different picture.
This elegant young man, holding a white paper fan, wore a brocade robe with shimmering spiritual light, and the jade pendant at his waist and the ring on his finger were all top-quality magical artifacts.
Even Qi Yourong, who was known for her extravagance, paled in comparison.
Rumor has it that this boy is backed by a powerful Nascent Soul cultivator from the Central Plains, and his grandfather is someone even the Emperor of Qi would treat with deference.
Although the three were few in number, their imposing aura was so strong that it made the nine geniuses opposite them gasp for breath.
The array within the hall seemed to sense this oppressive force, and ripples appeared on the light screen.
The disciples in the courtyard exchanged solemn glances.
On the contrary, by the stone table,
The two Core Formation cultivators sat facing each other, leisurely sipping spiritual tea.
One was the elderly, Core Formation Realm Master Zhou, a member of the Qi royal family; the other was a rather old monk dressed in ordinary robes.
The two appeared to be chatting casually, but their divine senses had already probed into the sky.
Over there, the Nascent Soul experts from both regions are exchanging blows to determine the rules for developing the secret realm's resources.
The weather suddenly changed, and the once clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds.
In an instant, day and night alternated, and the scenery of the four seasons changed in the blink of an eye—the drizzle of spring, the scorching sun of summer, the falling leaves of autumn, and the flying snow of winter appeared one after another in a short hour.
"Boom!"
A bolt of purple lightning ripped through the sky, followed by deafening roars of dragons and tigers.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth began to surge wildly, sometimes like a raging torrent, sometimes like a volcanic eruption.
The cultivators in the city were all shaken, stopping their work and looking up at the sky in terror.
"This...this is a battle between Nascent Soul cultivators!" A Foundation Establishment cultivator's face turned pale, and his legs trembled involuntarily.
Above the Five Heavens, two blurry figures stood suspended in mid-air.
Nine thunder dragons coiled around a person, each bolt of lightning containing world-destroying power;
The other person stood atop auspicious, seven-colored clouds, with countless sword shadows appearing behind him. Each clash of their auras triggered extraordinary phenomena in the heavens and earth.
"Snap!"
An aftershock accidentally struck, splitting a hundred-foot-tall mountain outside the city in two.
As the flying stones scattered, dust billowed into the sky, startling the cultivators in the city who quickly activated their protective spiritual energy.
Even the Nascent Soul cultivators in the courtyard had to circulate their true energy and concentrate their divine senses, as the two of them were easily injured while watching the Nascent Soul experts fight.
Master Zhou put down his teacup and said with a wry smile, "It seems the debate above is more intense than we imagined."
The old monk also sighed, "The power of a Nascent Soul cultivator is indeed extraordinary, beyond the comprehension of us third-tier cultivators."
Just as everyone was in shock, the strange phenomenon in the sky suddenly stopped.
The two figures seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding, simultaneously concealing their auras.
In the blink of an eye, the clouds dispersed and the world returned to peace, as if everything just now was an illusion.
The next moment, two Nascent Soul True Monarchs suddenly appeared in the courtyard.
Although the Qi Emperor's robes were slightly disheveled, his hair ornaments remained neat and dignified.
The scars of lightning remained between his brows, the purple lightning wrapped around his dragon-patterned sword had not completely dissipated, and his magical power fluctuated like the tide, clearly indicating that he had just experienced a fierce battle.
But the emperor's majesty remained undiminished; his back was as straight as a pine tree when he stood, and the gold threads on his dragon robe shimmered faintly under the influence of magic.
The female Nascent Soul True Monarch opposite her wore a spotless white robe, and the jade hairpin in her hair remained perfectly still.
Her face was as if sculpted by frost and snow, her eyes as calm as an ancient well, and even the hem of her clothes was not ruffled by the fighting just now.
She had no spiritual energy leaking out of her body, nor could she emit any spiritual light, yet she gave people a sense of oppression that made her one with heaven and earth—as if she were a part of this space, and no amount of thunder and lightning from the outside world could disturb her in the slightest.
Clearly, judging from the outcome, the female Nascent Soul cultivator was much more composed.
For a moment, the two True Immortals, as well as the geniuses on both sides, all looked at Emperor Qi and the female Nascent Soul cultivator with tense expressions.
