In order to fuse these golden core fragments together again, Xia Ruofei consumed as many as three Nascent Condensation Pills.
If it was used on an ordinary cultivator, it would be enough to create three Nascent Soul cultivators.
However, Xia Ruofei was also somewhat helpless. As long as the medicinal effect of the Nascent Condensation Pill was almost used up, the progress of fusing the golden core fragments would become extremely slow. He could only consume another pill and had no other choice.
Fortunately, after using three Nascent Condensation Pills, all the golden core fragments had already fused together again.
Of course, after the fusion, it was no longer in the form of a golden core. It was just an irregular object, but it contained a rather terrifying energy.
Next, he had to condense this irregular object into a nascent soul.
This process tested a cultivator's understanding of the laws of heaven and earth the most. At the same time, it also had an extremely high requirement for mental strength.
Fortunately, Xia Ruofei did not have any problems in these two aspects. His understanding of laws and mental strength far exceeded that of an ordinary late-stage Golden Core cultivator.
Under the effect of Xia Ruofei's will, the fused golden core fragments began to slowly change shape, evolving in the direction of a nascent soul.
Xia Ruofei quickly discovered that the condensation process was also rather slow.
The problem was not that his understanding of the laws of heaven and earth was insufficient, nor was it because of the mental strength. It was completely because after the golden core fragments fused together, the strength and toughness of the golden core fragments far exceeded that of an ordinary golden core fragment.
Xia Ruofei could not help but have a bitter smile on his face.
Although he was very distressed about the consumption of the Nascent Condensation Pills, after some effort, he finally had no choice but to take out the fourth Nascent Condensation Pill and swallow it.
As expected, when the medicinal effect of the Nascent Condensation Pill entered his dantian, Xia Ruofei's speed of condensing a nascent soul suddenly increased by a large margin.
His understanding of the laws of heaven and earth was much greater than that of cultivators of the same level. Now that he had the help of the Nascent Condensation Pill, the resistance suddenly decreased a lot, so the process of condensing a nascent soul naturally became much easier.
Under the control of Xia Ruofei's mind, the purple-gold Golden Core kept changing shape. Slowly, the shape of a human body appeared.
In truth, the process of condensing a Nascent Soul didn't require a cultivator to carefully control it. Basically, as long as one's comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth met the requirements, they would be able to condense a Nascent Soul in the end. However, there were differences between Nascent Souls. Some Nascent Souls condensed by cultivators were only embryonic forms, and even their facial features were only somewhat similar to the cultivator's. Some Nascent Souls condensed by cultivators were able to perfectly replicate the cultivator's appearance, and even the meridians within the cultivator's body could be molded.
The power of different Nascent Souls was naturally different, and the upper limits of their development in the future were also vastly different.
As time passed, the purple-gold Golden Core fragments in Xia Ruofei's dantian had fused together into a miniature version of Xia Ruofei. However, he still didn't stop. Taking advantage of the fact that the medicinal effects of the Nascent Condensation Pill hadn't completely disappeared, he continued to refine the Nascent Soul.
When the medicinal effects of the Nascent Condensation Pill were completely exhausted, Xia Ruofei finally let out a long sigh of relief. The Nascent Soul in his dantian now was basically another miniature version of Xia Ruofei apart from the fact that it didn't have any hair. The two were almost identical, and even the Nascent Soul's meridians were exactly the same as Xia Ruofei's. Furthermore, it could absorb vitality into its body and circulate it through its meridians.
However, there wouldn't be another miniature version of the Nascent Soul in the dantian of this Nascent Soul. It would be an empty dantian, but it could still store vitality and vitality liquid.
Xia Ruofei had read a large number of ancient books about cultivation, so he naturally didn't lack basic insight. He knew that the Nascent Soul he condensed this time was definitely of the highest quality among the Nascent Souls.
Of course, the purple-gold Golden Core was beyond grade among the Golden Cores. The Nascent Soul condensed after the purple-gold Golden Core was shattered naturally couldn't be too bad.
Xia Ruofei was quite satisfied with himself.
However, his expression soon became slightly sluggish, revealing a trace of doubt.
This was because after the successful condensation of the Nascent Soul, Xia Ruofei didn't feel the feeling of being reborn after breaking through to a higher realm.
Although he could sense that the power he controlled had been greatly improved, the extent of the increase didn't reach his expectations. Furthermore, this was definitely not the feeling of breaking through to a higher realm.
He couldn't help but feel a little confused because he was very sure that the process of condensing the Nascent Soul had been completed. Furthermore, the condensed Nascent Soul was close to perfection. Even if there were extremely small flaws, it wasn't something he could change with his current strength. It could be said that he had already done his best.
But why couldn't he feel that he had broken through?
Xia Ruofei tried to continue the Nascent Soul stage cultivation method of the Great Dao Arts while looking inside his dantian, hoping to find the reason.
After condensing the Nascent Soul, the cultivator still cultivated Primordial Qi, but this Primordial Qi would directly enter the Nascent Soul to continue the Circulatory Cycle, and then directly condense into Primordial Liquid.
When the dantian of the Nascent Soul was filled with Primordial Liquid, the cultivator could still continue to cultivate. After that, the Primordial Liquid condensed by the Nascent Soul would directly return to the cultivator's dantian.
In fact, in the process of breaking through, the Primordial Qi in the cultivator's body was all compressed into Primordial Liquid. After the Golden Core was shattered, the Primordial Liquid was also stored in the dantian. Therefore, the dantian of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator was like a sea of Primordial Liquid, and the Nascent Soul was actually floating in this sea of Primordial Liquid.
After successfully condensing the Nascent Soul, Xia Ruofei's cultivation efficiency had obviously increased by another level, and at the same time, the consumption of Purple Essence Crystals had greatly increased.
A huge amount of Spirit Qi was swallowed into the body like a whale and flowed through the meridians like lightning. After a large Circulatory Cycle, a wisp of Primordial Qi was produced and injected into the Nascent Soul. Finally, it condensed into a drop of Primordial Liquid, which was first stored in the dantian of the Nascent Soul.
Xia Ruofei continued to absorb Purple Essence Crystals and the rich Spirit Qi in the outside environment, producing a steady stream of Primordial Qi. After a while, the dantian of the Nascent Soul was filled.
However, Xia Ruofei still couldn't find where the problem was.
The current cultivation method was clearly the cultivation method of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, but why couldn't he feel that he had broken through?
He could only continue to absorb Spirit Qi to cultivate, and drop after drop of Primordial Liquid began to be stored in his dantian.
At this time, Xia Ruofei suddenly realized the problem — according to the ancient records of cultivation, the cultivation of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator was naturally mainly to continuously strengthen the Nascent Soul, and finally break through to the Primordial Soul stage. In fact, the Nascent Soul had been strengthened to the extreme, and finally transformed into a Primordial Soul. And the Nascent Soul naturally wouldn't be strengthened by itself. This process actually required the absorption of Primordial Liquid, so the Nascent Soul of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator would absorb the Primordial Liquid in the dantian of a cultivator. However, the Nascent Soul that he condensed didn't have any movement at all. The Primordial Liquid in his dantian increased, but the Nascent Soul remained motionless.
I can't have condensed a fake Nascent Soul, right? Xia Ruofei couldn't help but have such a thought in his mind.
However, he quickly denied this thought, because he had completely followed the method of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage in the cultivation method, and had also condensed a Nascent Soul that could be said to be of the highest quality. There couldn't be any problems in the process, otherwise, it would be impossible to successfully condense a Nascent Soul.
Then what was it? Were there still some steps that hadn't been completed?
Xia Ruofei kept thinking, and at the same time, he didn't stop cultivating. The Primordial Qi was continuously cultivated, and then condensed into Primordial Liquid, and then seeped out of the Nascent Soul, directly stored in his dantian, and integrated into the sea of Primordial Liquid.
Before finding the root of the problem, the only thing Xia Ruofei could do was to keep cultivating.
Although he was a little confused, he didn't panic. He still firmly believed that there was no problem with his breakthrough process.
In this way, Xia Ruofei cultivated for about half an hour. Just as he was at his wits' end, a few golden lights suddenly flashed in the sea of Primordial Liquid in his dantian.
Xia Ruofei had been looking at his dantian, hoping to find the problem, so he naturally discovered this abnormal situation.
The golden lights flew out of the sea of Primordial Liquid, and directly flew in the direction of the Nascent Soul.
Xia Ruofei was shocked. Could there be something strange in his dantian that would assassinate the Nascent Soul? Wasn't this a bit too absurd?
However, he quickly calmed himself down because he recognized the golden lights. Weren't they the dragon-shaped elixir patterns on the surface of the purple-gold Golden Core?
After the purple-gold golden core shattered, the dragon-shaped core patterns didn't break, but remained intact. Just now, Xia Ruofei had faintly seen these core patterns floating in the sea of Primordial Liquid, but later, he devoted himself to the condensation of the Nascent Soul, and didn't pay attention to these dragon-shaped core patterns.
Now that the condensation of the Nascent Soul was completed, and the dantian of the Nascent Soul was also filled with Primordial Liquid, these core patterns suddenly appeared, and went straight in the direction of the Nascent Soul, which made Xia Ruofei's heart slightly moved.
The situation just now was the scariest. Xia Ruofei did not dare to stop cultivating because if the process of breaking through was not completed, it might lead to the failure of the breakthrough. However, if there was no change even after cultivating, then when would it end? As time passed, Xia Ruofei couldn't help but constantly doubt himself, and become more and more uncertain.
Now that there was a change, it meant that there was hope for the problem to be solved.
Moreover, Xia Ruofei also had a faint hunch that the reason why the breakthrough process was not completely completed was very likely related to these dragon-shaped core patterns.
Of course, now that the purple-gold golden core no longer existed, these patterns could no longer be called "core patterns".
In short, these dragon-shaped patterns might be related to the final step that was not completed.
Sure enough, when the nine golden dragon-shaped patterns flew near the Nascent Soul, they each found a place to attach themselves to.
The two palms, two forearms, two feet, and two calves of the Nascent Soul each had a dragon-shaped pattern. The last dragon-shaped pattern was directly attached to the dantian of the Nascent Soul's lower abdomen.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but be a little surprised. If these dragon-shaped patterns were imprinted, wouldn't his Nascent Soul become a big flowery arm? Just thinking about it made Xia Ruofei feel that it was slightly funny.
Of course, Xia Ruofei only thought about it for a moment, and he quickly concentrated his energy to continue circulating the cultivation technique. At the same time, he tried to push the dragon-shaped patterns to fuse with the Nascent Soul as soon as possible.
A trace of a bitter smile quickly appeared on Xia Ruofei's face. These dragon-shaped patterns were only attached to the surface of the Nascent Soul, and it was extremely difficult to push them forward even a step, let alone fuse with the Nascent Soul.
It wasn't the first time Xia Ruofei had encountered such a situation today, so he didn't hesitate at all and cooperatively used his Spiritual Force to open the jade bottle's cork before swallowing a Nascent Soul Pill.
This was already the fifth Nascent Soul Pill he'd consumed today.
A cultivator breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage using five Nascent Soul Pills was truly shocking. Even during the golden age of the cultivation world, no one dared to be so extravagant.
Of course, ordinary cultivators didn't need so many Nascent Soul Pills to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage.
However, Xia Ruofei wasn't sure if this fifth Nascent Soul Pill would be enough or if he would need a sixth.
There were originally a total of 10 Nascent Soul Pills in this jade bottle. Before he attempted to break through, Xia Ruofei was still thinking about whether he could try his best not to use the Nascent Soul Pills and directly complete his breakthrough. In this way, he could save them for Song Wei, Ling Qingxue, and the others.
He never expected that he hadn't even completed his breakthrough, yet he'd already used up half of these Nascent Soul Pills.
Of course, now was naturally not the time to feel heartache about the consumption of the Nascent Soul Pills. After Xia Ruofei consumed the Nascent Soul Pills, he immediately started trying to fuse the nine dragon-shaped patterns into his Nascent Soul.
Sure enough, when the medicinal properties of the Nascent Soul Pills entered his Dantian, the resistance instantly became much smaller.
The nine dragon-shaped patterns also stuck closely to the Nascent Soul all of a sudden, and under the push of Xia Ruofei, they began to slowly fuse with the Nascent Soul.
Xia Ruofei suddenly felt relieved. It seemed that his guess was not wrong. This should be the last step of his breakthrough.
This was already one more step than ordinary cultivators breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage. Of course, this was also determined by the special structure of the purple-gold golden core, so he had no experience at all to follow. Fortunately, he was still on the right path.
With the help of the Nascent Soul Pills, Xia Ruofei's work of fusing the nine dragon-shaped patterns went very smoothly.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the nine dragon-shaped patterns became thinner and thinner. At the same time, the exact same dragon-shaped patterns appeared on the corresponding parts of the Nascent Soul's body. Moreover, they became clearer and faintly emitted a purple-gold light.
After more than half an hour, when the medicinal properties of the Nascent Soul Pills were about to be exhausted, Xia Ruofei finally completed the fusion of the patterns.
The nine dragon-shaped patterns from before had already disappeared without a trace and were replaced by the nine corresponding dragon-shaped patterns that had completely appeared on the Nascent Soul's body.
It was also at this moment that the Nascent Soul that had been motionless all this time opened its mouth and directly sucked in a stream of essence liquid. Xia Ruofei also finally felt the boundless power in his body …
Hard work paid off. He finally succeeded in breaking through to the early-stage of the Nascent Soul Stage!
