Chapter 213: False Core

"I don't know if it can produce goods..."

Lin Jing sighed slightly after putting one hundred Explosive Fruits and one hundred Sun Grasses into the suspended gourd.

"Squeak..." The Pine Needle Rat was full of confidence.

It had synthesized so much trash; it should produce something useful, right?

"If it still doesn't produce goods, I will use the Blood Demon Vine as the organ material for the 'water-wood' attribute to reduce the burden. Although it has a bit of a demonic cultivator flavor, it cannot be denied that its effect is indeed good." Lin Jing said.

In this way, Adamantine Wood and Blood-Sucking Vine directly solved the organ material for the gold-wood and water-wood attributes!

Because the quantity hoarded was enough, there was no need to re-purchase, plant, or synthesize!

In this way, finally, he only needed to solve the fire-wood and earth-wood, and he could gather the five-element organs.

Even if his face was dark again, he only lacked two types of organ materials, so he could definitely synthesize suitable ones slowly!

"Squeak!!!" The Pine Needle Rat indicated that everything was fine. It ran to the edge of the Sun Grass pile, its gaze burning.

The Sun Grass was orange-red, like a clover, permeated with a gentle radiance, as warm as sunlight.

Under the gaze of the Pine Needle Rat's Glazed Immortal Pupils, one hundred Sun Grasses soon disappeared. Immediately following, accompanied by a dazzling radiance, a Sun Grass with dark red constantly flashing light spots was synthesized...

"Squeak..." The Pine Needle Rat scratched its head, looked at the spotted Sun Grass, and fell into deep thought.

Lin Jing shared its vision and soon fell into deep thought as well.

【Mutated Sun Grass, a plant with an affinity for solar power. After eating it, the body will temporarily obtain a high temperature close to the surface of the sun...】

"Fierce plant, this must be a fierce plant, right? A perfectly good spirit plant for assisting in cultivating fire techniques, how did it mutate into a fierce plant again...!" Lin Jing's mouth twitched.

If one's own body obtained a high temperature close to the surface of the sun, even with magic power protection, low-level cultivators would directly evaporate into the human world, right?

"Squeak~" The Pine Needle Rat shrugged. What could it do?

"This won't work. It's hard to use as your organ. Your core is wood-attribute, and your ability to withstand high temperatures is extremely poor. It's hard to convert high temperatures into attack methods." Lin Jing shook his head.

Following that, he pointed to the Explosive Fruit. This Explosive Fruit was already a fierce plant. Following past experience, Lin Jing guessed a bit about what would be synthesized.

A moment later, the ordinary apple-like Explosive Fruit did not change color, but its shape changed to a certain extent, covered with sharp thorns, turning into a shape similar to a red durian.

【Mutated Explosive Fruit, lost its own ability to explode, became edible...】

Seeing this, Lin Jing's eyes lit up, but soon, he fell silent again.

【After eating, the taker will obtain a strengthened self-explosion. One can self-explode any organ, or self-explode the whole body. The self-explosion comes with extreme flame power!】

"Good

good good, sure enough, it's a fierce plant turning into a demonic plant again. A fruit that explodes by itself has turned into a fruit that assists the taker in self-exploding." Lin Jing looked at the sky.

"Squeak~" The Pine Needle Rat shrugged again. What could it do?

Isn't this the same old thing?

The Pine Needle Rat rubbed its eyes and swallowed a few spirit fruits for eyesight, exhausted. It seemed that these two syntheses had also failed. These plants in Qingzhou were not much stronger than those in the Ancient Kingdom.

"No, it didn't fail. This self-explosion fruit... let's make it your new organ." Lin Jing said.

His evaluation was that it seemed usable!

Pine Needle Rat:?

Rat Daoist took a step back and pointed to his whole body. Where did it look like it could self-explode?

Lin Jing looked at it: "This isn't your true body. Your Demon King true body is a wooden squirrel giant statue, covered with branches and pine cones. Those pine cones should also be considered part of your body, right?"

"When the time comes, just blow up those pine cones."

"Moreover, your Azure Emperor Longevity Art has already reached completion. According to Senior Shen Song, you can already condense a plant avatar. The main body cannot explode, but the avatar should be able to self-explode."

The Pine Needle Rat opened its mouth slightly. Did you have to be so heartless!!!

Lin Jing was desolate: "No way. If you aren't ruthless to yourself, the various demons and monsters won't be gentle to us when the time comes. If you don't want to be eaten clean by them, just be more ruthless than them."

The Pine Needle Rat scratched its head frantically. Self-explode organs? Is it reliable?

Afterward, Lin Jing picked up the spotted Sun Grass and the self-explosion fruit and said: "Next, it's a large-scale synthesis of self-explosion fruits, trying to improve the self-explosion fruit into the Tree Man Elixir, and finally, endowing the pine cones on your body with the 'flame self-explosion' attribute."

"The spotted Sun Grass cannot be wasted either. It will be used to research new elixirs and be the core material for new elixirs."

"Relying solely on the Taotie Elixir, it is difficult to fully open the market. After eating this synthesized Sun Grass, the body can obtain a high temperature close to the surface of the sun. This high temperature, even ordinary Golden Core cultivators can hardly withstand. But if a cultivator can control this high temperature, it is not a fierce plant used for suicide, but a strange object that endows the cultivator with a 'high-temperature spell'!"

Lin Jing pondered.

False Core Technique... is it feasible?

"When the time comes, see if it can be refined into a False Core! With the Fire Qilin Dragon, this 'Flame Emperor', it might be possible!"

"Some cultivators who have no hope of forming a core, or who have fallen from Golden Core to Foundation Establishment and cannot condense a Golden Core again, usually choose to condense a False Core through elixirs or secret arts to replace the Golden Core!"

"This kind of False Core technique, although its growth potential is not as good as a true Golden Core and cannot transform into a Nascent Soul, some special False Cores also contain great power. When driven, they can exert abilities not inferior to Golden Core divine abilities."

"The Golden Core stage is the process of nourishing and perfecting Golden Core

divine abilities. Driving Golden Core divine abilities at this stage will wear down the Golden Core, requiring a very long time of seclusion and rest, or the use of expensive medicines to repair the Golden Core... Only by successfully transforming into a Nascent Soul can one display Golden Core divine abilities as one pleases."

"Therefore, if it is some powerful False Core technique, it is not just Foundation Establishment cultivators who have no hope of forming a core who will use it..."

"Even cultivators who have already condensed a Golden Core will not mind condensing another False Core to add another foundation for themselves."

"On weekdays, use the False Core technique to fight the enemy, nourish one's own true core, and wait quietly for Nascent Soul formation..."

"After all, compared to a true Golden Core, a False Core is not afraid of wear and tear. After destruction, one can re-condense it."

"If the high-temperature power can be locked into the False Core, condensing a 'Sun False Core', the high-temperature False Core technique brought by the Sun False Core will definitely be amazing in power. A temperature close to the surface of the sun, at the Golden Core stage, will definitely have few opponents. A False Core... is indeed a good choice." Lin Jing took out the spotted Sun Grass, and it just happened to be an opportunity to study elixirs that assist in forming a core.

This is the most important thing...

Unsurprisingly, he wanted to break through to Golden Core. This time, he definitely had to take medicine. Relying solely on three pet beasts to form a core might not necessarily drive him.

The cultivation and breakthrough of the Longevity Body are harder the further you go.

Therefore, he must also refine an elixir to assist himself in forming a core at that time. This technique of forming a False Core can just be used for practice now. ===== CHAPTER 214 =====
