Chapter 115: Core Cloud G.o.dfiend

Meng Chuan looked at his dantian. His dantian and sea of consciousness were similar s.p.a.ces. They were infinitely small, but also paradoxically infinitely large.

The sea of consciousness was where the Essence Soul resided.

The dantian was where Quintessential Energy and Quintessential Essence gathered. The importance of one’s dantian was in no way inferior to one’s sea of consciousness. In fact, many early-stage G.o.dfiends could not sense their sea of consciousness. The dantian was what they cared most about! Their cultivation would be severed if their dantian was destroyed! Seventy percent of their strength stemmed from Quintessential Essence; thus, they placed great importance on their dantian.

My dantian is much bigger than before. Meng Chuan inspected his dantian with a critical eye.

After nine bolts of heavenly lightning had reforged his body, his dantian had naturally changed. His dantian s.p.a.ce was vaster than before. Remnants of heavenly lightning flashed about his dantian. In the center of his dantian s.p.a.ce, one could see a white Essence Core. The Essence Core allowed a person to absorb more Quintessential Essence naturally. Even wisps of the heavenly lightning would be absorbed. This caused the Essence Core’s surface to produce tiny amounts of heavenly lightning.

The Essence Core was expanding. Since the dantian s.p.a.ce had increased greatly, it could withstand much more Quintessential Essence than before.

I have to condense a Core Cloud. A mortal’s Essence Core cannot withstand so much Quintessential Essence. Meng Chuan knew this very well.

Many outer sect disciples acc.u.mulated credit in exchange for a chance to enter the G.o.dfiend Blood Pool. When attempting the Life-and-Death juncture, remoulding their bodies was comparatively less dangerous than when they condensed their Core Cloud. They typically had low or middle-grade G.o.dfiend bodies; thus, the difficulty of transforming their bodies was relatively low. Of course, some still failed, and their bodies collapsed. However, most outer sect disciples failed to condense Core Cloud.

A half-finished Core Cloud collapsing would lead to terrifying forces blasting through their bodies and killing them on the spot.

Meng Chuan’s Core Cloud condensation process was more complicated than ordinary outer sect disciples’. However, he had already achieved Saber Intent for more than a year.

Time to begin. With a thought, he immediately absorbed the G.o.dfiend Blood Pool’s powers. In his dantian s.p.a.ce, the G.o.dfiend Blood Pool’s powers mixed with the heavenly lightning, forming Quintessential Essence. The new Quintessential Essence flashed with lightning. As time pa.s.sed, the Quintessential Essence within his dantian was being converted. Small amounts of heavenly lightning were drawn out from his dantian s.p.a.ce and merged with his Quintessential Essence. In just a short moment, his dantian was filled with rich Quintessential Essence—which contained heavenly lightning. It was like a sea had filled his dantian s.p.a.ce.

Boom!

Under the guidance of Saber Intent, his Quintessential Essence transformed into tiny saber beams. Having reached the Saber Intent realm, the condensed saber beams were more corporeal and denser.

It was beyond a mortal’s Quintessential Essence to form such a dense, corporeal saber beam.

The saber beams spun in an orderly manner and gathered at the Essence Core. The Essence Core was transformed by Quintessential Essence around it! The Quintessential Essence constantly merged with the Essence Core, causing the heavenly lightning in the Essence Core to become denser.

Gather! Compress!

Compression increased density. When density reached a threshold, there were two results—One, an explosion! The G.o.dfiend Body would explode into pieces when this happened! Two, control the compressed energy and use it to form a Core Cloud.

The Lightning Devastator Fiend Body was much stronger than low or middle-grade G.o.dfiend bodies. Coupled with Meng Chuan’s robust foundation, the Quintessential Essence in his dantian was ten times denser than someone in the same realm as him. This made it rather difficult for him to condense a Core Cloud.

Though he had long achieved Saber Intent, Meng Chuan was still very careful. The moment the Essence Core was on the verge of exploding, he fully focused himself on his task. He was afraid of making any mistakes.

Suddenly, a voice rang out in his ears. “Meng Chuan, fuse the Power of Essence Soul with your Quintessential Essence. Your control over the Quintessential Essence will increase by over ten-fold. This will give you greater confidence in condensing the Core Cloud.”

Meng Chuan suddenly came to his senses.

He had been following the G.o.dfiend formula’s methods for condensing a Core Cloud, afraid that he would make mistakes. The formula hadn’t mentioned using the Power of Essence Soul when condensing the Core Cloud. However, it was understandable why. Mortals usually didn’t have Essence Souls.

The Power of Essence Soul gave him greater control over his body and Quintessential Essence. Since his strength increased several-fold, his control over his body and Quintessential Essence would naturally increase.

With a thought, the Power of Essence Soul fused with the saber beams.

Every saber beam was corporeal. It was as though each saber beam was human. The countless saber beams resembled soldiers forming a ma.s.sive legion and were taking up military formation.

This military formation is too crude. After his control increased over tenfold, Meng Chuan immediately discovered his problem. With a thought, countless saber beams were adjusted slightly. After the saber beams were moved slightly, they became more synchronized! Using Saber Intent to guide the saber beams wasn’t wrong, but he could only control them en ma.s.se. With greater control, he could adjust the saber beams individually. The effects from doing so were much better.

Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!

After the saber beam vortex reached maximum density, there was no explosion like the manual described. Usually, one would utilize the explosion’s power to form a Core Cloud.

Instead, the Essence Core—within the saber beam vortex—shattered with a faint bang. A portion of Quintessential surged out, leaving behind a dot of light that was roughly one-thousandth its original size. This dot of light shone like a brilliant star. It produced an invisible gravitational pull, causing the Quintessential Essence vortex to revolve around it. Thus, a beautiful Core Cloud was formed. All Quintessential Essence was sucked towards the vortex.

The revolving Core Cloud and the dot of light illuminated their surroundings. Quintessential Essence outside his dantian s.p.a.ce began to condense and surged towards the vortex—forever to revolve and gather at the core.

Over time, the dot of light would gradually increase in size.

When his Quintessential underwent another qualitative change, he would enter the Indestructible realm. However, he needed to have a sufficiently strong body and saber realm to do so. Otherwise, his body would break down and shatter if he forcefully broke through, causing his death.

Of course, previous generations of G.o.dfiends had long figured out various conditions required for each breakthrough. One had to have sufficient strength to break through their current cultivation realm.

I’ve succeeded. With the Essence Soul’s help, it was much easier to condense a Core Cloud. Meng Chuan sighed in relief.

Meng Chuan checked his body.

His physical strength was immense, his dantian was vast, and his Quintessential Essence was pure! Even his sea of consciousness had become vaster. The Essence Soul inside his sea of consciousness was slowly growing.

The human body is a vessel. The bigger the vessel, the more water it can contain. The stronger my body is, the more Quintessential Essence my dantian can contain. My Essence Soul will also become ma.s.sive. Meng Chuan came to a realization. His body, Quintessential Essence, and Essence Soul were extremely important. They were closely related to each other.

Meng Chuan—who was sitting in the G.o.dfiend Blood Pool—had gone bald. The heavenly lightning had incinerated his hair.

However, the G.o.dfiend Blood Pool’s power made his hair grow rapidly.

“Hurry up and exit the pool. Don’t waste the G.o.dfiend Blood Pool’s powers for a few strands of hair.” The Supremacy could not help but shout. At the same time, the blue liquid in the G.o.dfiend Blood Pool rapidly receded. Normally, the G.o.dfiend Blood Pool would be empty. As for where the blue liquid was usually kept? That was confidential! This was a treasure that Archean Mountain would desperately protect.

Meng Chuan immediately jumped out and threw a robe over his body. He wore a look of guilt on his face. His hair had already grown two inches long. He immediately bowed. “I just broke through and accidentally absorbed some of the G.o.dfiend Blood Pool’s powers.”

“Forget it.” The Supremacy did not mind. After all, his breakthrough required over ten thousand-fold the G.o.dfiend Blood Pool’s powers than what he had just absorbed for his hair.

Meng Chuan was still rather excited. After all, he had become a G.o.dfiend. He was now in the first G.o.dfiend realm—the Core Cloud realm.

“Thanks to your guidance, I was able to condense a Core Cloud easily,” said Meng Chuan gratefully.

The Supremacy nodded and said, “Meng Chuan, the Power of Essence Soul is extremely important during the later G.o.dfiend realms. For example, breaking through from the Great Solar realm to the Darkstar realm is extremely difficult. The Power of Essence Soul can increase your control over Quintessential Essence by tenfold. It’s the only way you can reach the Darkstar realm. If you don’t have an Essence Soul, even if your saber realm is several-fold higher than that of Darkstar realm experts, you still wouldn’t be able to become a Darkstar G.o.dfiend. In the future, you have to work hard on your Essence Soul.”

He valued Meng Chuan because of his Essence Soul.

“I understand.” Meng Chuan nodded.

“Alright.” The Supremacy’s figure dissipated, and he was gone.

Meng Chuan stood beside the G.o.dfiend Pool. He felt the immense power within him and his extremely pure Quintessential Essence. He couldn’t help but feel excited.
