Chapter 834: Embryo forming the Nascent Soul, at your disposal

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

The so-called "Embryo forming the Nascent Soul!" is to let the cultivator’s life-bound Golden Core shatter and be reborn, forming the life-bound Nascent Soul.

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

Following the continuous changes coming from the dantian in his body, Song Qingming also clearly felt the continuous changes of his life-bound Golden Core.

The Golden Core wrapped by his own magic power first slowly began to grow larger in the dantian, then a dazzling golden light shone from the life-bound Golden Core, not only making the dantian in Song Qingming’s body very bright, but the golden light also passed through his physical body and illuminated the flames around him into a golden yellow color.

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

However, the most difficult part of "Embryo forming the Nascent Soul" was not just these. Whether he could successfully form the Nascent Soul next was the key to success or failure.

Following the continuous growth of the life-bound Golden Core, Song Qingming also clearly felt that the shape of the Golden Core began to have different changes, changing from the original smooth spherical shape to uneven.

Soon, a very blurry human face appeared above the life-bound Golden Core. This face was still only a prototype, and the specific facial features could not be seen clearly, only from the appearance, it looked somewhat delicate, like an infant.

This was the initial appearance of Song Qingming’s life-bound Nascent Soul. Next, as long as he continued to cast spells and fully form the life-bound Nascent Soul, he would successfully pass this hurdle of "Embryo forming the Nascent Soul."

Just when Song Qingming was struggling to urge the magic power in his body and had almost successfully formed the small head of the life-bound Nascent Soul, he did not expect that he suddenly felt a strange movement coming from his life-bound Golden Core.

The life-bound inner core wrapped in golden light now had a tiny crack on it, and then the crack became larger and larger.

In Song Qingming’s look of surprise, the life-bound Golden Core, which already had a prototype of the Nascent Soul, suddenly became smaller and returned to its original state, only with a very obvious crack on it.

At the same time, 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 embryo forming the Nascent Soul is indeed not easy; no wonder it can block so many geniuses in the cultivation world."

Song Qingming, who had stayed in the "Heavenly Fire Illusion" for half a year, successfully tried to break through to the Nascent Soul realm once, and the result was also as he expected: he fell at the critical step of "Embryo forming the Nascent Soul."

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

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

It was just that the situation of "Embryo forming the Nascent Soul" far exceeded Song Qingming’s expectations.

In the illusion, he had only completed less than thirty percent of the embryo forming steps when, because of improper control of magic power, the life-bound Golden Core shattered, and "Embryo forming the Nascent Soul" eventually fell short.

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

But this failure of "Embryo forming the Nascent Soul" still made Song Qingming personally experience the difficulty of Nascent Soul formation, and he could not help but sigh at the difficulty of the Nascent Soul Great Dao.

If he were not in the illusion just now but had rashly chosen to impact the Nascent Soul realm directly, even with the help of auxiliary spiritual items, the certainty of success would definitely not exceed twenty percent.

And the shattering of the Golden Core just now was enough to make it difficult for Song Qingming to recover for decades. If he were unlucky, he might even have his cultivation realm drop because of this.

Such injuries would not cause Song Qingming to lose his life, but they would definitely have a great impact on his path, perhaps causing him to miss the opportunity to step into the Nascent Soul Great Dao.

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

Although his first attempt to form the Nascent Soul in the illusion failed very thoroughly, Song Qingming was not too discouraged.

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

And at this time, a spiritual light also emitted from his chest, making the speed at which Song Qingming absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy increase several times. Before long, the magic power in Song Qingming’s body, which was not much left, gradually became full again.

Feeling that the magic power in his body had recovered, Song Qingming’s face gradually showed a look of satisfaction.

"With the help of the thousand-year spiritual milk and the remnant map, I can stay in this Heavenly Fire Pool for a lot of time, and I should be able to try entering the illusion to impact the Nascent Soul realm one or two more times."

The extraterrestrial heavenly fire in this "Heavenly Fire Pool" is very powerful. Ordinary Core Formation cultivators rely on their own magic power protective shield to resist the heavenly fire outside, and their magic power will be exhausted in at most half a year, making it difficult to support.

Even with the help of elixirs and spiritual items to recover magic power, it can generally only persist for about a year.

And trying to impact the Nascent Soul realm in the "Heavenly Fire Illusion" will also consume a lot of the cultivator’s own magic power.

Once the cultivator is trapped in the illusion and consumes too much magic power without knowing it, it is easy to be injured by the extraterrestrial heavenly fire, and even lose their life because of this.

Originally, Song Qingming thought that relying on the magic power on his body, he should at most be able to support entering the "Heavenly Fire Illusion" once.

But when 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 own magic power to support the protective shield resisting the extraterrestrial heavenly fire.

If there were no help from the remnant map, after Song Qingming came out of the "Heavenly Fire Illusion," his magic power would be consumed too much, and I fear he would not dare to try entering the illusion again.

But now, with the help of the remnant map, Song Qingming’s magic power recovery speed has increased exponentially, plus the help of the thousand-year spiritual milk, which can almost offset his own magic power consumption here.

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

"Since once is not enough, then come for the second time!"

After recovering his magic power and adjusting his state, Song Qingming closed his eyes and entered the "Heavenly Fire Illusion" and began to try to form the Nascent Soul for the second time.

". ."

Time passed, and soon another year or so passed.

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

After Master True Person Lingxu dropped a white chess piece in his hand, Liu Yu looked at the chessboard and hesitated for a long time, then grabbed the black chess piece beside him and scattered it directly on the chessboard.

Faced with his disciple’s decisive choice to concede, True Person Lingxu smiled, touched the long beard at the corner of his mouth, and laughed: "Although this game is in a difficult situation, it is not unsolvable. Having learned chess skills from me for so long, how come you are becoming more and more impatient?"

Liu Yu heard this and hurriedly replied: "Master’s chess skills are superb; how can 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 for self-cultivation and not to be too concerned about winning or losing."

"I have said so many things; why do you only remember this one? If the person playing chess doesn't fight for winning or losing, then what fun is there."

"Hehe! Master’s teaching is correct, but this disciple’s chess skills are really too poor, and I am still far from playing against Master, which is really boring."

"It’s better to wait for Junior Brother Song to come out and let him play a good game with you!"

Liu Yu was putting away the chessboard while talking when he suddenly stopped his movements and looked up at his master, True Person 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 in for more than a year, why hasn't he come out yet!"

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

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

"It is rumored that a predecessor of the Demon-Swaying Palace stayed inside for several years back then; this is not something that has not happened."

"Someone could actually stay inside for several years; how is this done?"

Seeing Liu Yu looking at him with curiosity, True Person Lingxu shook his head directly: "This matter has been unknown for a long time, and I have never seen it with my own eyes, so how would I know how it was done? It’s nothing more than hearing some rumors."

"However, even if this matter is true, it is not something everyone can do. If someone cannot come out for several years, then they should not come out again."

Hearing Master True Person Lingxu’s explanation, Liu Yu’s face suddenly fell silent, and he 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 open the seal and go in to see? Maybe we can save Junior Brother Song from inside."

"No, no!"

Faced with Liu Yu’s suggestion, True Person Lingxu hurriedly waved his hand and said: "If this Heart-Refining Tower is opened from the outside, it will affect the person cultivating inside."

If it goes wrong, it will make him fall into the illusion and be injured by the extraterrestrial heavenly fire, which is also very dangerous.

I left a rune on him on the way here, and it hasn't been triggered yet, so there shouldn't be any life danger. Let’s wait patiently."

"He can stay inside for so long; it is indeed somewhat strange. When he comes out, you can ask him properly!"

"Oh! Master is still the most thoughtful."

Hearing what True Person Lingxu said, Liu Yu’s somewhat nervous face slowly relaxed, and he said to the "Heart-Refining Tower" not far away:

"Junior Brother Song, you must not have anything happen to you!"

Liu Yu and Song Qingming have known each other for many years, and their relationship in the sect has always been relatively good. Now knowing that Song Qingming might be in danger in the "Heart-Refining Tower," he could not help but worry for him.

And True Person Lingxu on the side still had a very calm face, stood in place for a moment, then turned and sat down in the pavilion.

"Another game!" —— Weiguo, "Funiu Mountain" mountain top.

Huang Siyuan, holding a chess piece, sat alone on the third floor of the "Huixian Pavilion," staring at the stalemate on the chessboard, and after thinking for a long time, chose to put it down gently.

"Playing chess alone is really boring!"

After whispering a sentence, Huang Siyuan had just stood up when she saw Song Yuanfang, who looked somewhat nervous, run up.

"Yuanfang, pays respects to Ancestor! I have been busy with official business these days and did not know Ancestor had left seclusion to welcome you. I hope Ancestor will forgive me!"

Hearing what Song Yuanfang said, Huang Siyuan immediately waved her hand at him: "I also left seclusion temporarily, it has nothing to do with you, don't overthink it."

"I asked you here today to ask, where did Qingyu go?"

"Ah! ... Aunt Ancestor, isn't she in seclusion on the mountain top?"

Hearing Song Yuanfang’s answer, Huang Siyuan was slightly stunned, was silent for a moment, and then said seriously: "I went to her cave dwelling when I left seclusion a few days ago."

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

"Yuanfang, you are also a person who knows the importance of things. Because of this, husband has been at ease handing the family to you to manage for so many years. Some words should not need me to tell you directly!"

"If Qingyu left temporarily for something, even if it was inconvenient to inform me because I was in seclusion, there is no reason not to say hello to you!"

"Could it be that you respect me on the surface, but don't trust me as an ancestor in your heart?"

"This... Ancestor, please see clearly, Yuanfang has absolutely no such heart."

Hearing the words in Huang Siyuan’s mouth, Song Yuanfang was also shocked and bowed, then took out a letter.

"Ancestor, Aunt Ancestor left four months ago, saying she was going out to handle some things. I don't know where she went."

"She asked me to keep this letter well before she left. If she hasn't returned within half a year, then ask me to give the letter to you."

"Qingyu has been away for so long, and she didn't know to inform me; confused!"

Hearing what Song Yuanfang said, Huang Siyuan frowned slightly, scolded him, and then took the white letter in his hand.

"Sister-in-law, see the letter as if seeing me."

"Qingyu met a master in Yunwu Mountain a few years ago and made an agreement with me. This trip is for my own path; the family should not worry!"

"."

"I don't know when I will return!"

"In the Huixian Pavilion, there are still a few books left, which are what Qingyu has realized from contemplating cultivation methods over the years. I hope you will help me keep them well."

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

When seeing the last few lines, Huang Siyuan’s face became somewhat solemn, and then she took Song Yuanfang to the library next door and found the two bamboo slips left by Song Qingyu before she left.

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

"Yuanfang, help me send a message to the sect’s Law Enforcement Hall, saying that Qingyu has disappeared without reason and ask the sect to send someone to help."

"Yes! Ancestor."

Looking at Song Yuanfang who turned and left, Huang Siyuan silently put away the bamboo slips and sighed slightly: "These two siblings are really not worry-free. —— Weiguo, in a very hidden cave dwelling in "Yunwu Mountain."

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

In front of her, there is a small blue flying sword, constantly circling around, forming a gorgeous blue light around Song Qingyu.

Not long after, as the blue short sword suddenly flew into Song Qingyu’s body, her pair of pitch-black eyes slowly opened and stopped meditating.

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

Ever since leaving the cave dwelling of Ling Zhentian in Yueguo, Song Qingyu had followed the white-clothed woman and the others to come here and had not left for a single step.

After obtaining the rune in the cave dwelling that day, Song Qingyu spent about three months and finally copied everything obtained inside.

Just as the white-clothed woman said, what was left in the rune was indeed the subsequent cultivation method related to the "Xuanming Sword Art."

It’s just that the cultivation method in the rune was not as the white-clothed woman thought, deduced to the late Nascent Soul stage, but only to the mid-Nascent Soul realm.

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

"Hey! Have you already left seclusion?"

Just after walking out of the cave dwelling, Song Qingyu heard a very crisp sound from the opposite side. Looking up, she found it was the white-clothed girl who had gone to Yueguo with her earlier.

Seeing this, Song Qingyu hurriedly bowed to her slightly and replied: "Not living up to expectations, I have already copied the cultivation method. I ask Daoist White to take me to see Senior Liu."

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

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

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

"Thank you, Daoist!"

Through the contact in recent days, although Song Qingyu was 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 just now was named Bai Yuling, and the other purple-clothed woman Song Qingyu had seen was Bai Yuling’s fellow disciple, Yang Zixin.

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

It was just that the other party did not directly tell her name, and Song Qingyu only knew that she was surnamed Liu.

After greeting Bai Yuling, Song Qingyu came directly to the white-clothed woman and bowed respectfully to her.

"Pay respects to Senior Liu!"

The white-clothed woman heard this, smiled at her, and waved her hand: "Although you are not a disciple of this sect, since you have obtained Senior Brother’s inheritance, you can be considered to have some status with me. In the future, if there are no outsiders, just call me Uncle-Master."

Although Song Qingyu did not have the status of a master and disciple with Ling Zhentian, she had cultivated the "Xuanming Sword Art" left by the other party in the cave dwelling, which was considered to have obtained his inheritance.

And the Liu-surnamed woman was Ling Zhentian’s fellow disciple, so for Song Qingyu to call the other party Uncle-Master could be considered reasonable.

Hearing this, Song Qingyu did not decline and nodded directly: "Thank you, Uncle-Master Liu!"

After speaking, Song Qingyu waved her hand and took out the two bamboo slips she had already prepared and continued: "Uncle-Master Liu, this is what I copied from that rune; I ask you to take a look."

Seeing the bamboo slip scroll Song Qingyu took out, the white-clothed woman smiled and 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 suddenly looked at Song Qingyu with sharp eyes:

"This cultivation method is correct; it is definitely left by Senior Brother! However, it has only been deduced to the mid-Nascent Soul stage; I fear something is wrong. Did you miss anything?

I have already agreed to your request and made a vow with you not to make things difficult for you anymore. Don't you trust Uncle-Master?"

Seeing that the other party was just climbing relationships and turned her face when she said so, Song Qingyu sighed and spread her hands: "Senior, I have also made a vow with you; how dare I violate it easily.

The cultivation method you want is indeed all inside.

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

If you still don't believe me, Senior, you can take the Xuanming Golden Light Sword and study it again.

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

"Hehe! Do you think I have cultivated for so many years and am still a three-year-old child easy to deceive?

I cultivated the Xuanming Sword Art much earlier than you; I know better than you what mysteries this cultivation method has.

Besides this cultivation method, what else did you get from that rune? Take it out quickly.

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

That vow only limits you and me.

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

After the white-clothed woman finished speaking, she suddenly shot a spiritual light outward.

Before long, two figures flew over quickly and landed beside Song Qingyu; it was Bai Yuling and Yang Zixin who were guarding at the foot of the mountain.

Seeing that these two were not kind and surrounded her from left to right, Song Qingyu did not take out her magic treasure 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 overpraising me.

This junior’s cultivation is low, and I cannot even defeat Daoist Zixin alone; how can I have the confidence to escape from here!

But the things you need, Senior, I really cannot hand them over, so I can only be at your disposal!

Whether you want to search my soul, or check my life-bound magic treasure and storage bag, this junior is at your disposal!" (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 835 =====
