Chapter 376: The Nascent Soul Emerges From The Shattered Core
Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytorEditor: Jay
Duan Ling Tian wasn’t courteous in the slightest after obtaining Linghu Jin Hong’s promise.
So long as he needed any material, he would directly ask for it from Linghu Jin Hong. Every time, Linghu Jin Hong would be able to prepare all the material for him within a single day.
"The Sect Leader is really efficient." When Duan Ling Tian walked out of Dubhe Hall once again, he had a brilliant smile on his face.
But when he arrived at Megrez peak, the smile on his face froze.
"Hmph!" With a single glance, he’d noticed the middle aged man that was walking towards him from the distance, and his face sank.
It was precisely the Megrez Peak outer court elder, Zhao Lin.
"Duan Ling Tian!" Zhao Lin noticed Duan Ling Tian and cold lights flashed within his eyes.
Duan Ling Tian glanced indifferently at Zhao Lin, then he circumnavigated Zhao Lin and directly headed into Megrez Peak.
Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian’s ear drums trembled as Zhao Lin sent a voice transmission. "Duan Ling Tian, I won’t let you off until you hand over the Muscle Meridian Rebirth Scroll!"
Duan Ling Tian’s figure slightly stopped as he turned around to look coldly at Zhao Lin in the eye, then replied via voice transmission. "Then feel free to come at me Elder Zhao Lin! I only hope that at that time, you won’t regret it!"
"Regret?" Zhao Lin started laughing, and shrugged it off. "Duan Ling Tian, I know your natural talent in the Martial Dao is formidable, but if you want to surpass me, Zhao Lin, then without bitter cultivation of ten years, it’s simply fool’s talk! I really don’t believe that within this ten years of time, I, Zhao Lin, won’t be able to find an opportunity to kill you." Zhao Lin’s voice transmission was filled with icy cold killing intent.
"Then I’ll wait and see!" Duan Ling Tian calmly glanced at Zhao Lin before entering Megrez Peak.
After he confirmed that Zhao Lin wasn’t following him, Duan Ling Tian directly returned to the stalactite cave, then he withdrew a pile of materials and started refining a spirit weapon…
He wanted to refine two grade seven spirit swords.
These two grade seven spirit swords were refined for Li Fei and Ke Er.
For the sake of avoiding unnecessary trouble, Duan Ling Tian held back when refining the spirit weapons, but even then, the two grade seven spirit swords were still bestowed with an amplification of 30% by him.
Grade seven spirit swords that provided an amplification of 30% strength…
Throughout the entire Seven Star Sword Sect, besides the sword in Hu Xue Feng’s possession, there would probably only be these two.
After finishing the refinement of the two grade seven spirit swords, Duan Ling Tian started refining medicinal pills.
The medicinal pill he wanted to refine was a grade seven medicinal pill that surpassed the Origin Strengthening Pill…
This grade seven medicinal pill was able to assist a ninth level Origin Core Stage martial artist to swiftly step into the Nascent Soul Stage!
After quite some effort, the pill was completed.
"With this Nascent Break Pill, I can avoid a great deal of trouble when I intend to step into the Nascent Soul Stage." As he gazed at the three medicinal pills in his hand that had flowing lights revolve around them, Duan Ling Tian’s face revealed a satisfied smile.
Three Nascent Break Pills with a purity of over 90%.
If it was taken out into the open, it was sufficient to cause people to fight to the death for it!
After he passed the two grade seven spirit swords to Ke Er and Li Fei and had a romp with them for some time, Duan Ling Tian returned to the stalactite cave and sat on the stone platform before lightly pondering.
"Although the Sect Leader has entrusted all his hope on the Martial Competition four years from now… I might not be in the Seven Star Sword Sect at that time." Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flickered.
He was confident that with his natural talent and the resources he was able to utilize currently, he would surely be able to go further after four years.
His target was to step into the Void Stage after four years!
One he stepped into the Void Stage, then continuing to stay in the Seven Star Sword Sect was of no use at all.
"During the Martial Competition one year from now… I must give the Sect Leader some justification." Duan Ling Tian’s gaze gradually became firm.
Extremely strong confidence was emitted from his body and seemed to transform into a shapeless force that would even dare to pierce through the heavens.
Cultivate!
Duan Ling Tian closed his eyes, and his mind completely immersed itself into cultivating.
Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, Wind Wyrm Form!
Within Duan Ling Tian’s body, Origin Energy ceaselessly roiled, as if it would never be exhausted…
The vast Origin Energy endlessly surged before finally gathering within Duan Ling Tian’s Dantian.
The Origin Core within the Dantian had already condensed and strengthened to the limit.
"The Nascent Soul Stage is like its name… The nascent soul emerges from the shattered core, and that is the Nascent Soul Stage!" Duan Ling Tian who possessed the memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor wasn’t unfamiliar with the Nascent Soul Stage.
He knew that if he wanted to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage now, then he must make the Origin Core within his Dantian shatter from being too full, and allow the nascent soul to emerge from within.
Only in this way would he be able to truly step into the Nascent Soul Stage!
Swish!
The Origin Energy within Duan Ling Tian’s body ceaselessly flowed and churned, as if it had transformed into a surging river that flowed continuously.
His Origin Energy was endlessly strengthening and undergoing a qualitative change.
All for the sake of the moment that the nascent soul emerged from the shattered core.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian’s entire heart and soul were immersed into his cultivating, and he was completely concentrated.
He did his best to dissolve the medicinal strength of the Origin Strengthening Pill.
After the medicinal strength of one Origin Strengthening Pill was dissolved, he didn’t even open his eyes before directly swallowing another Origin Strengthening Pill and continuing to cultivate.
Repeating the process again and again.
…
Time flashed by swiftly.
Duan Ling Tian didn’t know how much time had passed, all he knew was that he’d ceaselessly consumed Origin Strengthening Pills, and ceaselessly condensed the Origin Energy within his body, all for the sake of charging into the Nascent Soul Stage…
The Nascent Soul Stage was his target.
When he was hungry, he opened his eyes and roasted some meat to eat.
Accurately speaking, it was some meat to swallow.
Wolfing down his food was a phrase that could perfectly describe the scenes of Duan Ling Tian violently eating and drinking these past few days.
During this period, Ke Er and Li Fei had come look for him twice.
But every time, when they saw Duan Ling Tian who was immersed in cultivation, they wouldn’t disturb him and would only silently watch Duan Ling Tian for some time before leaving.
No matter what their man did, they would support him without condition.
Because he was their life and everything to them!
This day.
"I’ve arrived at the limit of the bottleneck!" Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian opened his eyes, and he revealed a slightly excited expression.
With a raise of his hand, three medicinal pills had appeared within his palm.
It was precisely the Nascent Break Pill!
After swallowing down the three Nascent Break Pills, Duan Ling Tian continued cultivating, and the Origin Energy within his body had become violent as it endlessly charged at the final bottleneck…
The Origin Core within Duan Ling Tian’s Dantian expanded endlessly, and would shatter from being too full at any moment.
One day.
Bang!
Within the stalactite cave, a shapeless wave of air stretched out from the body of the young man that sat cross-legged on the stone platform. It caused the air to roil as it spread out, transforming into circle after circle of ripples…
In the next moment, the young man opened his eyes which were like a dazzling array of stars as bright lights flickered within.
After a short moment, the bright light gradually dispersed, and the young man’s eyes returned to calmness.
"Finally… Nascent Soul Stage!" Duan Ling Tian’s face revealed a smile and he was extremely excited.
He’d finally succeeded in breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage!
Whoosh!
Under his excitement, Duan Ling Tian’s Origin Energy skyrocketed.
Instantly, ancient mammoths silhouettes condensed into form one by one above him, and their imposing manner were like rainbows that shot into the sky.
A total of 211 ancient mammoth silhouettes!
"Similarly to when I was at the Nascent Soul Stage, I still possess the strength of 11 ancient mammoths more than a martial artist with a similar cultivation." The corners of Duan Ling Tian’s mouth curled into a smile. "The strength of 11 ancient mammoths was the strength of the body that was bestowed to me by the Spirit Serpent Form and Raging Python Form…"
At that time, Duan Ling Tian cultivated the first form of the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, the Spirit Serpent Form, and during the Body Tempering Stage, his strength far surpassed the strength of a martial artist with a similar cultivation as him.
When he was at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Stage, his strength even exceeded the strength of ordinary ninth level Body Tempering Stage martial artists by the strength of two ancient mammoths!
After he broke through to the Core Formation Stage, the second form of the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, the Raging Python Form, bestowed the method of using Origin Energy to temper the body to Duan Ling Tian, and it even allowed Duan Ling Tian’s body to become strong to a state that could be called abnormal…
An ordinary ninth level Core Formation Stage martial artist possessed a strength comparable to the strength of 12 ancient mammoths.
But when Duan Ling Tian was at the ninth level of the Core Formation Stage, his strength was comparable to the strength of 23 ancient mammoths!
It was almost double the strength of an ordinary ninth level Core Formation Stage martial artist!
This extra strength of 11 ancient mammoths had always been with Duan Ling Tian until now.
"Coupled with the Quake Energy that was bestowed upon me by the third form of the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, the Wyrm Python Form… Relying on the grade six spirit sword that the withered old man left behind that day, so long as it isn’t a second level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist who possess a grade six spirit weapon or above, I can kill them!" Duan Ling Tian thought in his heart and he had an initial estimate of his current strength.
Of course, if it was a second level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist that possessed a grade six spirit weapon, then if Duan Ling Tian were to go against the martial artist, he would surely be in a dangerous situation…
"As my cultivation advances, the extra strength of 11 ancient mammoths and the Quake Energy will become of lesser and lesser help to me!"
Duan Ling Tian knew very well that in the future, he might be able to rule over martial artists with a similar cultivation as him by relying on the extra strength of 11 ancient mammoths and Quake Energy, but once he encountered a martial artist with a higher cultivation than him, it would become more and more strenuous for him!
Just like now, so long as that second level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist also possessed a grade six spirit weapon, then unless Duan Ling Tian can gain an advantage by making the first strike, otherwise, if he were to go head-on with the martial artist, Duan Ling Tian would die without a doubt!
"The nascent soul emerges from the shattered core…" Unconsciously, Duan Ling Tian seemed to have thought of something and started to use his internal vision.
Presently, the Origin Core within his Dantian had completely vanished.
At the location where the Origin Core used to be, a ball of milky white gas that was the shape of a baby seemed lifelike as it sat cross-legged there.
"This ball of baby shaped gas is completely formed from Origin Energy." Through the memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor, Duan Ling Tian knew this like the back of his hand.
"The pressing matter at hand is to improve my cultivation as soon as possible! Once my cultivation encounters a bottleneck, I’ll stop cultivating right away, then rely on the high grade Earth Rank movement technique, Whirlwind, to comprehend Wind Force." Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath then withdrew a medicinal pill and swallowed it.
This medicinal pill was a medicinal pill that Duan Ling Tian had refined before he started cultivating, and it was named Nascent Nurturing Pill.
It was a medicinal pill that was consumed by Nascent Soul Stage martial artist to cultivate.
It was similar to the Origin Increasing Pill consumed by Core Formation Stage martial artists and the Origin Strengthening Pill that was consumed by Origin Core Stage martial artists.
Continue cultivating!
Presently, after his cultivation had broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage, Duan Ling Tian was able to perceive that when he circulated the mental cultivation method of the fourth form of the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, the Wind Wyrm Form, it was much easier.
The Origin Energy within his body flowed ceaselessly as it charged towards the next level, and it seemed as if it didn’t know exhaustion.
