Chapter 834: Forming a Nascent Soul from the fetus, at your disposal

After the magic power in his dantian was ready, Song Song Qingming did not hesitate and directly drove his magic power to wrap around his life-bound golden core.

The so-called "forming a Nascent Soul from the fetus!" is to let the life-bound golden core in the cultivator's body shatter and be reborn, forming a life-bound Nascent Soul.

At this point, the cultivator can break through the bottleneck of the Core Formation realm and step directly into the Nascent Soul Great Dao with one foot.

Following the constant changes coming from the dantian in his body, Song Song Qingming also clearly felt the constant changes of the life-bound golden core in his body.

The golden core wrapped by his own magic power first began to grow slowly in the dantian, and then the life-bound golden core emitted a dazzling golden light, which not only made the dantian in Song Song Qingming's body very bright, but the golden light also penetrated his physical body and illuminated the flames around him into a golden yellow color.

At this step, Song Song Qingming had almost completely adapted to the huge pain brought by "forming a Nascent Soul from the fetus!", and the expression on his face was instead slightly better.

It's just that the most difficult part of "forming a Nascent Soul from the fetus!" is not just these. Whether he can successfully form a Nascent Soul next is the key to success or failure.

Following the constant enlargement of the life-bound golden core in his body, Song Song Qingming also clearly felt that the outer shape of the golden core began to have different changes, changing from the original smooth spherical shape to uneven.

Soon, above the life-bound golden core, a very blurry human face gradually appeared. This human face was still just a trace of a prototype, and the specific facial features could not be seen clearly, only that the facial features looked somewhat tender, like an infant.

This was the initial appearance of Song Song Qingming's life-bound Nascent Soul. Next, as long as he continued to cast spells and fully manifest the life-bound Nascent Soul, he would be able to successfully pass this hurdle of "forming a Nascent Soul from the fetus."

Just when Song Song Qingming was desperately driving the magic power in his body and had finally managed to manifest the small head of the life-bound Nascent Soul, he didn't want to suddenly feel a strange movement coming from his life-bound golden core.

The life-bound inner core originally wrapped by golden light now had a tiny crack on it, followed by the crack becoming larger and larger.

In Song Song Qingming's look of surprise, the life-bound golden core, which already had a prototype of a Nascent Soul, suddenly shrank and returned to its original state, only with a very obvious crack on it.

At the same time, Song Song Qingming, who was in the "Heavenly Fire Pool," suddenly shook his body and opened his eyes.

Having just woken up from the "Heavenly Fire Illusion," he hurriedly checked the dantian in his body. Seeing that the life-bound golden core was safe and sound, he slowly let out a loud sigh.

"This forming a Nascent Soul from the fetus is really not easy. No wonder it can block so many geniuses and talents in the cultivation world."

Song Song Qingming, who had stayed in the "Heavenly Fire Illusion" for half a year, successfully tried to break through the Nascent Soul realm once, and the result was also within his expectations, falling at the critical step of "forming a Nascent Soul from the fetus."

The first two hurdles of Nascent Soul formation mainly test the cultivator's patience, which was not as difficult as Song Song Qingming had imagined.

Although he spent a lot of time, it was overall relatively smooth, without too many twists and turns.

It's just that the situation of "forming a Nascent Soul from the fetus" far

In the illusion, he had only completed less than three-tenths of the Nascent Soul transformation steps when, due to improper control of magic power, his life-bound Jin Dan shattered, and the "Fetal Transformation into Nascent Soul" ultimately fell short.

Although he knew he was in the "Heavenly Fire Illusion," there would be no loss even if the Nascent Soul formation failed.

But this failure of "Fetal Transformation into Nascent Soul" still made Song Song Qingming personally experience the difficulty of a cultivator forming a Nascent Soul, and he couldn't help but sigh at the hardship of the Nascent Soul Great Dao.

If he hadn't been in an illusion just now but had rashly chosen to directly impact the Nascent Soul realm, even with the help of auxiliary spirit items, the chance of success would definitely not have exceeded two-tenths.

Moreover, the Jin Dan shattering just now had caused injuries sufficient to make it difficult for Song Song Qingming to recover within decades. If he were unlucky, he might even fall in his cultivation realm because of it.

Although such injuries would not cost Song Song Qingming his life, they would definitely have a great impact on his Dao path, and might even cause him to miss the opportunity to step onto the Nascent Soul Great Dao.

Even after waking up from the "Heavenly Fire Illusion," Song Song Qingming still felt lingering fear and hurriedly checked his body thoroughly before feeling at ease.

Although his first attempt at forming a Nascent Soul in the illusion failed completely, Song Song Qingming was not too discouraged by it.

After checking his state, Song Song Qingming took out a white porcelain bottle, poured out a drop of white spirit liquid, swallowed it, and began to sit in meditation, casting spells to refine the spirit liquid in his body.

At this moment, a spiritual light also radiated from his chest, causing the speed at which Song Song Qingming absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy to increase several times over. Before long, the magic power in Song Song Qingming's body, which had not been much, gradually became full again.

Feeling that his magic power had recovered, a look of satisfaction gradually appeared on Song Song Qingming's face.

"With the help of the Millennium Spirit Milk and the remnant map, I can stay in this Heavenly Fire Pool for quite a long time. I should be able to try entering the illusion once or twice more to impact the Nascent Soul realm."

The extra-boundary heavenly fire in this "Heavenly Fire Pool" was very powerful. Ordinary Jin Dan cultivators relying on their own magic power shields to resist the heavenly fire outside could at most stay for half a year before their magic power would be exhausted, making it difficult to hold on.

Even with the help of elixirs and spirit items to recover magic power, they could normally only persist for about a year.

Moreover, attempting to impact the Nascent Soul realm in the "Heavenly Fire Illusion" would also consume a lot of the cultivator's own magic power.

Once a cultivator was deeply trapped in the illusion and consumed too much magic power without realizing it, they would easily be injured by the extra-boundary heavenly fire and might even lose their lives.

Originally, Song Song Qingming thought that with his own magic power, he could at most support entering the "Heavenly Fire Illusion" once.

But when Song Song Qingming entered the "Heavenly Fire Pool," he suddenly discovered that the remnant map on his body was not restricted here and could help him quickly recover his magic power to support the shield resisting the extra-boundary heavenly fire.

If it weren't for the help of the remnant map, Song Song Qingming would probably not have dared to try entering the illusion again after the magic power in his body was consumed too much from coming out of the "Heavenly Fire Illusion."

But now, with the help of the remnant map, the recovery speed of Song Song Qingming's magic power increased exponentially, and combined with the help of the Millennium Spirit Milk, it could almost offset his own magic power consumption here.

That is to say, Song Song Qingming could now stay in the "Heavenly Fire Illusion" several times longer than others, which also greatly exceeded his original expectations.

"Since once isn't enough, then I'll come for a second time!"

After recovering his magic power and adjusting his state, Song Song Qingming closed his eyes, sat in meditation, entered the "Heavenly Fire Illusion," and began his second attempt at condensing a Nascent Soul.

"..."

Time passed slowly, and soon another year or so had gone by.

In a stone pavilion outside the "Heart-Refining Tower," an old man and a young man were staring at a chessboard on the table.

After his master, "Daoist Daoist Lingxu," placed a white chess piece, Liu Yang looked at the chessboard and hesitated for a long time before grabbing a black chess piece from the side and scattering it directly onto the board.

Facing his disciple's decisive choice to concede, "Daoist Daoist Lingxu" smiled, stroked his long beard, and laughed: "Although this game has entered a predicament, it is not unsolvable. Having learned chess from me for so long, why have you become increasingly unable to hold your composure?"

Hearing this, Liu Yang hurriedly replied: "Master's chess skills are superb; how could this disciple be your opponent? Being able to play against you for so long is already much better than in the past.

Didn't you always say that playing chess is about cultivating one's character and not being too concerned with winning or losing?"

"I've said so many things; why do you only remember this one? If those who play chess don't strive for victory, what fun is there?"

"Hehe! Master's teaching is correct, but this disciple's chess skills are truly too poor. Playing against you is still far from enough; it's truly uninteresting.

It's better to wait until Junior Brother Song comes out and let him accompany you for a good game!"

As Liu Yang put away the chessboard while talking, he suddenly stopped his movements and looked up sharply at his master, "Daoist Daoist Lingxu."

"By the way, Master, didn't you say last time that Senior Brother and the others would come out of the Heart-Refining Tower in at most a year? Junior Brother Song has been inside for more than a year; why hasn't he come out yet!"

Hearing Liu Yang's inquiry, "Daoist Daoist Lingxu" slowly turned his head to look at the "Heart-Refining Tower" not far away, and said softly with a calm face:

"Normal cultivators can only stay for about a year after entering, but the cultivation world is full of wonders, and it's impossible for everyone to have the same result after entering.

It is rumored that a senior from the Dangmo Palace once stayed inside for several years. This is not something that hasn't happened before."

"To think someone could stay inside for several years; how is that done?"

Seeing Liu Yang looking at him with curiosity, "Daoist Daoist Lingxu" shook his head directly: "This matter happened so long ago that even this master hasn't seen it with his own eyes, so how would I know how it's done? It's nothing more than hearing some rumors.

However, even if this is true, not everyone can do it. Normally, if someone can't come out after several years, they probably won't come out again."

After hearing the explanation from his master, "Daoist Daoist Lingxu," Liu Yang fell into a silence, then hurriedly asked: "This... Master, are you saying that Junior Brother Song might not be able to come out!

Then Master, what should we do? Should we break the seal and go in to take a look? Perhaps we could save Junior Brother Song from inside."

"No, no!"

Facing Liu Yang's suggestion, "Daoist Daoist Lingxu" hurriedly waved his hand: "If this Heart-Refining Tower is opened from the outside, it will affect those in seclusion inside.

If things go wrong, it will cause him to fall into an illusion and be injured by the extra-boundary heavenly fire, which is also very dangerous.

I left a talisman seal on him on the way here, and it hasn't been triggered yet, so there shouldn't be any life-threatening danger. Let's wait patiently for now.

It is indeed strange that he can stay inside for so long, but you can ask him well when he comes out!"

"Oh! Master is still the most thoughtful."

Hearing what "Daoist Daoist Lingxu" said, Liu Yang's nervous expression slowly relaxed, and he said to the "Heart-Refining Tower" not far away:

"Junior Brother Song, you must not have any accidents!"

Liu Yang and Song Song Qingming had known each other for many years, and their relationship in the sect had always been quite good. Knowing that Song Song Qingming might be in danger in the "Heart-Refining Tower," he couldn't help but worry for him.

Meanwhile, "Daoist Daoist Lingxu" beside him remained very calm. After standing in silence for a moment, he turned and sat down in the pavilion.

"One more game!" — Wei State, "Mount Mount Funiu" summit.

Huang Huang Siyuan, holding a chess piece, sat alone on the third floor of the "Huixian Pavilion," looking at the stalemate on the chessboard. After pondering for a long time, she chose to put it down gently.

"Playing chess alone is truly boring!"

After muttering to herself, Huang Huang Siyuan had just stood up when she saw Song Song Yuanfang, looking somewhat nervous, suddenly run up.

"Song Yuanfang pays respects to the Chen Chen Laozu! I have been busy with official duties these past few days and didn't know the Chen Chen Laozu had come out of seclusion to welcome you. I hope the Chen Chen Laozu will forgive my sin!"

Hearing what Song Song Yuanfang said, Huang Huang Siyuan immediately waved her hand at him: "I also came out of seclusion temporarily and ahead of time; it has nothing to do with you, don't think too much.

I asked you to come today because I want to ask, where has Song Qingyu gone?"

"Ah!... Great-Aunt, isn't she in seclusion on the summit?"

Hearing Song Song Yuanfang's answer, Huang Huang Siyuan was slightly stunned. After a moment of silence, she said seriously: "When I came out of seclusion a few days ago, I had already been to her cave dwelling.

Although I didn't go in directly, I could still feel that there was no one inside.

Song Yuanfang, you are also a person who knows the importance of things. Because of this, my husband has felt at ease handing the family over to you to manage for so many years. There are some things I shouldn't have to say directly to you, right!

If Song Qingyu had to leave temporarily for some reason, even if it wasn't convenient to tell me because I was in seclusion, there's no reason she wouldn't greet you.

Could it be that you respect me on the surface but treat me, this Chen Chen Laozu, as an outsider in your heart and don't trust me?"

"This..., Chen Chen Laozu, please see clearly, Song Yuanfang has absolutely no such intention."

Hearing Huang Huang Siyuan's words, Song Song Yuanfang was also shocked. After bowing, he took out a letter from his hand.

"Chen Chen Laozu, Great-Aunt left four months ago, saying she was going out to handle some matters. I don't know where she went either.

Before she left, she instructed me to keep this letter well and to give it to you if she hadn't returned within half a year."

"Song Qingyu has been gone for so long and didn't even know to tell me. How foolish!"

Hearing what Song Song Yuanfang said, Huang Huang Siyuan frowned slightly. After scolding him, she took the white letter from his hand.

"Sister-in-law, seeing the letter is like seeing me.

Several years ago, Song Qingyu met an expert at Mount Mount Yunwu who left me a promise. This trip is for my own Dao path; the family need not worry!

I don't know when I will return from this trip!

In the Huixian Pavilion, there are still a few scrolls left, which are what Song Qingyu has gained from comprehending cultivation techniques over the years. I hope you will keep them well for me."

On the white letter, only a dozen lines were written. Song Song Qingyu only explained that she had gone out to seek opportunities and did not mention much, nor did she say where she had specifically gone.

When she saw the last few lines, Huang Huang Siyuan's expression became somewhat solemn. She then took Song Song Yuanfang to the library next door and found the two bamboo slips Song Song Qingyu had left before leaving.

After opening and looking at the bamboo slips in her hand, Huang Huang Siyuan immediately turned around and said:

"Song Yuanfang, hurry and help me send a message to the sect's Law Enforcement Hall, saying that Song Qingyu has gone missing for no reason and asking the sect to send someone to help."

"Yes! Chen Chen Laozu."

Watching Song Song Yuanfang turn and leave, Huang Huang Siyuan silently put away the bamboo slips in her hand and sighed slightly: "These two siblings are truly not worry-free. — Eastern Wei State, in a very hidden cave dwelling in "Mount Mount Yunwu".

Song Song Qingyu, dressed in white, was sitting cross-legged, immersed in meditation.

In front of her was a small blue flying sword, constantly circling around, forming a brilliant blue light surrounding Song Song Qingyu.

Not long after, as the small blue sword suddenly flew into Song Song Qingyu's body, her dark eyes slowly opened, and she stopped meditating.

Subsequently, Song Song Qingyu cast a spell with one hand to take out a bamboo slip, wrote down the cultivation technique she had just comprehended on it, and then slowly put it away.

Ever since leaving Ling Ling Zhentian's cave dwelling in Yue State, Song Song Qingyu had followed the white-clothed woman and the others here and had not left a single step.

After obtaining that talisman seal in the cave dwelling that day, Song Song Qingyu spent about three months finally copying everything she had obtained inside.

Just as the white-clothed woman said, what was left in the talisman seal was indeed the subsequent cultivation technique for the "Xuanming Sword Art."

However, the cultivation technique in the talisman seal was not, as the white-clothed woman had thought, deduced to the late Nascent Soul stage, but only to the mid Nascent Soul stage.

After putting away the cultivation technique in her hand, Song Song Qingyu sat in place and pondered for a long time before slowly getting up and walking out of the cave dwelling.

"Eh! Have you come out of seclusion?"

Just as she walked out of the cave dwelling, Song Song Qingyu heard a very crisp voice from the opposite side. Looking up, she realized it was the white-clothed girl who had gone to Yue State with her earlier.

Seeing this, Song Song Qingyu hurriedly bowed slightly in return: "I have lived up to expectations; I have already copied the cultivation technique. I ask Fellow Daoist Bai to take me to meet Senior Liu."

"Master has been waiting for you; follow me quickly!"

After the white-clothed girl finished speaking, she turned and led Song Song Qingyu to the summit, where she saw a white-clothed figure sitting on a rock not far away.

"Master wants to speak with you alone, so I won't go over with you."

"Many thanks, Fellow Daoist!"

Through their recent contact, although Song Song Qingyu was still not very clear about their background, she already knew the names of the white-clothed girl and the others.

The white-clothed girl who led the way was named Bai Bai Yuling, and the purple-clothed woman Song Song Qingyu had seen was Bai Bai Yuling's fellow apprentice sister, Yang Yang Zixin.

Their master was the white-clothed woman sitting on the rock not far in front of Song Song Qingyu.

It was just that the other party had not directly told her name, and Song Song Qingyu only knew that her surname was Liu.

After greeting Bai Bai Yuling, Song Song Qingyu went directly to the white-clothed woman not far away and bowed respectfully.

"I have met Senior Liu!"

Hearing this, the white-clothed woman smiled and waved her hand: "Although you are not a disciple of this sect, since you have obtained the inheritance of Senior Brother, you can be considered to have some status with me. From now on, if there is no one else, you can call me Junior Aunt."

Although Song Song Qingyu did not have the status of a disciple with Ling Ling Zhentian, she had practiced the "Xuanming Sword Art" left by him in the cave dwelling, so she could be considered to have obtained his inheritance.

And the woman surnamed Liu was Ling Ling Zhentian's fellow apprentice sister, so it was reasonable for Song Song Qingyu to call her Junior Aunt.

Hearing this, Song Song Qingyu did not refuse and nodded directly: "Many thanks, Junior Aunt Liu!"

After speaking, Song Song Qingyu waved her hand and took out the two bamboo slips she had prepared, continuing: "Junior Aunt Liu, this is what I copied from the talisman seal. Please take a look."

Seeing the bamboo slip scroll Song Song Qingyu took out, the white-clothed woman smiled slightly, hurriedly took it into her hand, opened it, and examined it carefully.

After a while, the white-clothed woman put away the bamboo slip, and her gaze suddenly became sharp as she looked at Song Song Qingyu:

"This cultivation technique is indeed correct; it was definitely left by Senior Brother! However, it has only been deduced to the mid Nascent Soul stage. I'm afraid something is wrong. Did you leave something out?

I have already agreed to your request and made a vow with you not to make things difficult for you. Could it be that you still don't trust your Junior Aunt?"

Seeing that the other party was just trying to build a relationship and now turned hostile, Song Song Qingyu sighed directly and spread her hands: "Senior, I have also made a vow with you; how would I dare to violate it easily?

The cultivation technique you want is indeed all here.

As for why there is no spell for after the mid Nascent Soul stage as you mentioned before, I don't know either.

If Senior still doesn't believe me, I can give you the Xuanming Sword Light Sword to take and study again.

When we first entered Senior Ling's cave dwelling, we discovered that it was possible that no one had entered it for nearly a thousand years. I guess that Senior might not have deduced it yet at that time!"

"Hehe! Do you think I've cultivated for so many years and am still a three-year-old child to be deceived?

I practiced the Xuanming Sword Art much earlier than you. I know better than you what mysteries this cultivation technique has.

Besides this cultivation technique, what else did you get from that talisman seal? Take it out quickly.

Although I made a vow with you and said I wouldn't make things difficult for you, you should also be sensible and not force me to take action.

That vow only limits you and me.

You don't think that as long as I don't take action, you would have the ability to leave here by yourself, do you!"

After the white-clothed woman finished speaking, a spiritual light suddenly shot out from her hand.

Before long, two figures flew over quickly and landed beside Song Song Qingyu; they were Bai Bai Yuling and Yang Yang Zixin, who had been guarding the mountain.

Seeing that these two were coming with ill intent, surrounding her on the left and right, Song Song Qingyu did not reveal any magic treasures to fight them.

Instead, she gave up resistance and spread her hands helplessly to the white-clothed woman in front of her: "Senior, your words are truly overestimating me.

This junior's cultivation is low, and I cannot even defeat Fellow Daoist Yang Zixin alone. How could I have the confidence to escape from here!

But I truly cannot hand over what Senior needs, so I can only let you dispose of me.

Whether you want to search my soul or check my life-bound magic treasure and storage bag, I am at your disposal!" (End of chapter)
