Chung Shen-soo slaughtered his way to Xuanhai Sect and suppressed all the cultivators in the sect. Naturally, it was to prevent them from escaping with the books.
At this moment, all the Daoist books of Xuanhai Sect were in his bag.
Although Xuanhai Sect seemed to be the overlord of the area, it was actually just a local tyrant in a remote and desolate place.
Even if it was destroyed, it would at most shock the neighboring countries.
The Core Formation ancestor among them... was just that.
In any case, Chung Shen-soo did not feel that he needed to be afraid of a few divine-realm cultivators, even if they joined hands.
Thus, he leisurely read every day and interrogated the elders, obtaining a large amount of general knowledge in the cultivation world.
Half a month later.
Chung Shen-soo put down Xuanhai Sect's highest book, Xuanhai Secrets, and sighed faintly, "This seems... to be an ancient immortal technique!"
He closed his eyes, and the information he obtained during this period of time continued to combine, revealing the whole picture of the cultivation world.
"In this world, cultivation starts from foundation building, followed by qi refining, spirit refining, spirit refining, core formation, primordial spirit …"
"The real difference is in core formation... as long as a cultivator finds compatible spirit refining and spirit refining, they can try to merge the dragon and tiger to forge a leakless golden core!"
"And there are nine grades of golden cores! A lower grade golden dan is extremely impure, and can only nurture the embryonic form of a divine ability. In the future, it will require tens of years of hard work to nurture the golden dan's divine ability … … en, that old ancestor Fu Hai only has a seventh grade impure golden dan … … there's a possibility that he would be hacked to death by the spirit refining disciples of the orthodox Xuanmen with flying swords … … "
"The middle three grades of golden cores, after being refined, will have their own divine abilities, and can be considered a true golden core master."
"And the upper three grades of golden cores are the true disciples of big sects. The golden core can nurture a true divine ability, and there is hope for their cultivation to increase by another level."
"For every grade of Golden Core, a cultivator's attainment, magic power, and divine abilities are as different as heaven and earth … Moreover, Golden Cores below the third grade have no way to advance at all. Only those with Golden Cores above the third grade have the possibility of entering the Nascent Divinity Stage."
"I've been fooled by the name. Isn't this bullsh * t Golden Core just the Divine Ability Realm? If it were Zhang Taiyi, he would be able to easily crush Forefather Fuhai! "
Chung Shen-soo automatically switched between the two realms.
If it was Zhang Taiyi, he would be a genius cultivator who had reached the first grade of the Core Formation. Even in the orthodox Xuan Sect, he was an extremely rare genius cultivator.
"No … Zhang Taiyi has more than one divine power. Maybe it's above the first stage. Is it the peerless outer stage?"
However, in this world, there is no Primal Core realm above the Golden Core realm. Cultivators with high-grade Golden Core have to start the Golden Core Nine Refinement Stage and enter the Nascent Divinity Stage. As for how to cultivate, the Xuanhai Sect does not know.
After all, it was just an unranked sect. Just by looking at Forefather Seatopple, who was only at the seventh level of Core Formation, it was clear that the cultivation methods of this sect weren't very popular.
However, when Chung Shen-soo interrogated the various elders and read the miscellaneous records in the ancient books, he found out a secret.
There were no more Essence Souls in this world!
It was said that this matter began hundreds of thousands of years ago, when there was a 'Heavenly Change Chaos'.
As for how the 'Heavenly Change Chaos' started and how it was quelled, all the ancient books were vague. Only the name of the 'Heavenly Change Chaos' had been passed down.
Ever since the 'Heavenly Change Chaos', the original Nascent Divinity Stage cultivators either passed away or disappeared.
In the years that followed, countless cultivators at the peak of the Core Formation realm cultivated hard and reached the Golden Core Nine Refinement Stage. However, they couldn't reach the Nascent Divinity Stage in a single step. All of these cultivators, without exception, had their Nascent Divinity Stage become chaotic when they broke through. They went mad and died.
It was as if Nascent Divinity Stage cultivators were not allowed to exist in this world!
"This … It really is a Golden Core Nine Refinement Stage cultivation method. Is it an ancient celestial method?"
Chung Shen-soo couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he thought about this.
When he thought about the abnormality of the Heavenly Dao of this world, he roughly understood why the first empire of Yan Han was destroyed.
"I'm afraid that back then, the cultivators of the first empire of Yan Han suffered the same fate … The older generation gradually withered, and the new generation of cultivators reached the peak of the Golden Core Nine Refinement Stage but couldn't break through. They died the moment they broke through!
"Ancient celestial methods are not suitable for cultivation in such a polluted world, so they have to change to a new method …
"However … the cultivators in this world didn't seem to have come up with a new method? Maybe it's because there are no external enemies. "
The people of Yan Han were afraid that they would be wiped out if they didn't change their cultivation method, so they worked together to improve the new method.
That darkest time for the people of Yan Han was also the time when all the sects put aside their prejudices and worked together with Buddhism, Daoism, and Fiend Dao.
In this world, the human race didn't seem to have encountered any disaster. The sects were still very biased, so it was no wonder that the development was not fast.
"However, although the ancient celestial method is only comparable to the Divine Power, it has an advantage, and that is to prolong life … Usually, low-grade Golden Cores can live for three to four hundred years. Middle-grade Golden Cores can live for five hundred years, and superior-grade Golden Cores can live for six to seven hundred years …
"If the cultivators with Divine Power in the Seven Lights Heaven knew about this, they would die of envy."
Chung Shen-soo kept thinking. "I only have one Primordial Spirit method, so I'm afraid it's not enough. Although the ancient celestial methods of this world are useless, I can use them as a reference. After I reach the Primordial Spirit, I don't need to plot against the Supreme Dragon Tiger Sect anymore. I can create a dharma body that is most suitable for me, and even the method to become an immortal!"
The difference between the ancient method and the new method seemed to be ingeniously combined in the Primordial Spirit realm.
However, there was no Primordial Spirit in this world!
Chung Shen-soo suddenly felt that he had the right to be reckless.
Those Jindan grandmasters, even if their pills were first-grade, what did that count for?
As long as they hadn't started cultivating the Nine Refinement Stage, he could crush them all!
"Yes, it's the cultivation method of the Golden Core Nine Refinement Stage. I don't understand it … After all, the Xuanhai Sect doesn't have access to such a profound book. The highest I can achieve is the third-grade Golden Core, and I have to rely on all kinds of opportunities."
However, Chung Shen-soo guessed that the so-called Golden Core Nine Refinement Stage was the process of continuously purifying the Golden Core and the Dharmic powers.
"After the Nine Refinement Stage, the Golden Core Nine Refinement Stage continuously purifies the Dharmic powers, and it might be comparable to my Primordial Core Dharmic powers …"
"In the new method, the Golden Core Nine Refinement Stage is extracted from the Dharmic powers purification step and turned into the Primordial Core Stage?"
"No, there must be other cultivation methods in this Nine Refinement Stage, such as the soul. When I reach the peak of the Golden Core Nine Refinement Stage, it should be equivalent to a Primordial Core Perfected Three Disasters Stage, and I can try to break through to the Primordial Spirit."
"It seems that the new method can't be said to be regressive. In fact, it's even more obvious than the ancient method … Dharmic Dao can always be a system of continuous improvement …"
Chung Shen-soo suddenly felt touched.
The people of today might not be inferior to the people of the past!
The new method might not be inferior to the ancient method!
If that was the case, why couldn't he take in the past and create a Dao that was most suitable for himself?
