Weisuo didn't hide it. He nodded and said, "I have indeed reached the fifth level of the Split Thought Realm. I can start preparing for the core formation."
"You're already at the fifth level of the Split Thought Realm? Did little friend Wei also get an amazing opportunity in the Small Heaven Realm? " Li Yizhan looked at Weisuo with a dumbfounded expression. His heart was beating violently, and a strange blush appeared on his pale face. He remembered clearly that when Weisuo went to the Small Heaven Realm, he was still at the fourth level of the Split Thought Realm. Now, he was already at the fifth level of the Split Thought Realm. The most important thing was that he knew that Weisuo must be very clear that there was still a big gap between breaking through to the fifth level of the Split Thought Realm and breaking through to the Jin Dan Realm. Ordinary cultivators would need at least a few decades of bitter cultivation.
Now that Weisuo said this, he must have some confidence. It wasn't long before he reached the core formation.
Currently, Wei Suo was only in his twenties, and he even had a Heaven-grade cultivation technique. For him to reach Core Formation at such a young age was simply unimaginable. Even if one were to think with their toes, they would definitely have astonishing accomplishments in the future. To be able to form a relationship with such a cultivator was much more useful than obtaining some powerful magic treasures or medicinal pills.
"Ancestor Xuanyuan and I did get some things in the Small Heaven Realm, but it was mainly the ancestor who helped me use the Hai Xian Sect's spirit vein to help me improve my cultivation." Weisuo said calmly.
"So that's how it is." Li Yizhan took a deep breath. The shock in his heart couldn't be described with words. Now, he had confirmed his guess from Weisuo's words. As for how Weisuo's cultivation advanced so quickly, it was meaningless to him. He could only do his best to help Weisuo. In the future, he might get some rewards and benefits from this matter.
After glancing at Weisuo, Li Yizhan nodded. "I don't know what little friend Wei wants to know. As long as I know, I will definitely tell you everything."
"Things to note and how to prepare for Core Formation. The more detailed, the better." Weisuo smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, I've already read through all the records of the Hai Xian Sect regarding the formation of the Aurous Core. However, there aren't many records on how to prepare for it. All they say is that we need to prepare an absolutely quiet place for seclusion. We need to have someone to protect us. We must not interrupt the formation of the Aurous Core. We also need to prepare some medicinal pills with extremely pure medicinal power that can quickly replenish our True Essence. On the contrary, there were many records about the dangers of Core Formation. It was said that if something went wrong during Core Formation, the best case scenario would be the destruction of one's Cultivation base. The worst case scenario would be that one's Meridians would be frozen and damaged, and one would become a cripple. It would be impossible for one to even cultivate a new technique. The worst case scenario would be that one's True Essence would go out of control, and one's Jin Dan would explode, leaving nothing behind. If Fellow Daoist Li hadn't arrived just in time, I would've had no choice but to disturb the ancestor who was in seclusion. "
"Generally, when the cultivators in the sect prepare to form their Gold Core, most of them will be personally guided by the Gold Core stage cultivators in the sect. For example, the Haixian Sect has always been a sect with Gold Core stage cultivators, so it is normal that there are fewer records in the ancient books." When Li Yizhan heard Weisuo's words, he nodded and sternly said, "From what I've heard, you should be cramming at the last minute. You've never dabbled in this area before. Since that's the case, I'll explain it in detail."
"Many thanks for Senior Li's guidance!" Weisuo's face immediately revealed an expression of joy.
"The records of the Hai Xian Sect state that we need to prepare an absolutely quiet place with someone to protect us. This isn't wrong." Li Yizhan nodded and continued in detail, "During the Core Formation process, the changes in a cultivator's True Essence, Spirit Qi, Blood Qi, and Spiritual Sense are all extremely subtle and mysterious. Under these circumstances, even the slightest influence from external objects can cause unimaginable changes in a cultivator's mind and perception.
"For example, even the slightest sound of a mosquito's wings could be heard by a Core Formation cultivator. But it could also be heard by a cultivator in the Core Formation stage, like the roar of ten thousand thunderbolts or a perilous sea. During the process of Core Formation, if the slightest trace of Water Spiritual Qi, Fiery Qi, or Yin Qi was absorbed into the body, the cultivator's Divine Sense would feel like they were in a boundless ocean, a boundless inferno, or facing an ancient Fiery Demon God that was about to devour their consciousness. Thus, for safety's sake, not only do you need an absolutely quiet room, it would also be best if you had a soundproof formation and a formation that completely cuts off Origin Qi. "
Li Yizhan looked at Weisuo and asked, "Do you have a suitable formation for this?"
Weisuo shook his head and said, "I don't have one."
"These are the two formations I used to set up when I was forming my Gold Core." Li Yizhan took out an azure jade talisman from his storage pouch and handed it to Weisuo. "If you don't have a better formation, these two formations will do."
"Many thanks, Senior Li."
"No need to be so polite. However, apart from the invasion of external objects, the most dangerous thing during Core Formation is the invasion of one's inner demons. The so-called inner demons are actually the seven emotions and six desires of a person. During Core Formation, they will be magnified along with the subtle changes in the cultivator's body. " Li Yizhan's expression was grave as he said, "In the ancient times, cultivators cultivated Daoist magic and also focused on the cultivation of the heart and mind. However, we cultivators of the present day cultivate magic and not the heart. We purely cultivate strength and use the might of heaven and earth. This kind of inner demon invasion is even more dangerous for us. From what I know of cultivators who failed Core Formation, seven or eight out of ten failed because they couldn't pass this trial. "
At this point, Li Yizhan revealed a look of lingering fear. "When I was in the Core Formation Stage and was attacked by my Inner Demon, I first saw a female cultivator that moved my heart very much. I experienced many unforgettable scenes with her in the illusion and almost couldn't extricate myself from it." Later, I saw a companion who was killed by a demon beast while hunting with me. In any case, there were so many terrifying scenes that it was difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion. In order to pass this trial, one must have very few worries in their heart and have very few knots in their heart. Their will must be very firm. "
"So the invasion of inner demons mentioned in the ancient records is this terrifying." Seeing Li Yizhan's expression, Weisuo could sense that this trial would be extremely difficult to pass.
"Therefore, for insurance, some cultivators even cultivate a cultivation art that severs the seven emotions and six desires, or cultivate a cultivation art that allows them to forget many things before they reach Core Formation." Li Yizhan took a deep breath and continued, "The process of Core Formation cannot be interrupted, because if the True Essence is interrupted during the condensation process, it will result in the kind of consequences you said, which would result in the destruction of one's cultivation base or the solidification of one's meridians, turning one into a cripple."
"In order to increase the success rate, it's best to prepare some spirit medicines. For example, spirit medicines like the Purple Fox Flower can expel harmful impurities from a cultivator's body. When the Jin Dan is condensed, there won't be many harmful consequences due to impurities. If some cultivators use too many pills refined from demon cores to cultivate, many of the harmful medicinal effects in their bodies will clash. Even if their true essence is enough, when the time comes, the Jin Dan will clash with each other. It's very likely that the Jin Dan won't be able to condense, or it will directly stiffen and become a dead Jin Dan. It's equivalent to crippling most of one's cultivation and consuming most of one's blood essence and Shouyuan. "
"For safety's sake, it's best to prepare a Jindan Dao Pill. This kind of pill has almost no harmful medicinal effects, but for a certain period of time, it can slow down the flow of true essence, making the Core Formation process slightly more peaceful. There are still many of this kind of top grade earth-level ancient pill in the world and can be purchased. "
"If Core Formation successfully reaches the final juncture, when the Core Formation process officially begins, the cultivator's physical body will be very weak. Moreover, the newly condensed Jin Dan will continue to absorb true essence. The amount of true essence that the Jin Dan will absorb will depend on one's cultivation art. However, cultivators will generally prepare some spirit medicines that can quickly replenish their true essence and don't have many harmful medicinal effects. Little Friend Wei, does your heaven-level cultivation art have any special effects? Or does it lean towards a certain type of vitality? "
"No." Weisuo, who was listening very seriously, immediately shook his head. "What, does it also affect Core Formation?"
"Correct." Li Yizhan nodded and said, "For example, the Yin Corpse Sect's cultivation method requires the user to absorb Yin Qi when they absorb Spirit Qi. Hence, when they condense their Core, the body's Blood Essence will be depleted more than other cultivation methods. For example, some cultivation arts that lean towards fire or water may cause imbalance in the body's spirit Qi. You need to prepare some special spirit medicines. Since you have an orthodox Primordial Dao cultivation art, you don't need to worry about this. "
"In addition to these, there is one last point. You can place spirit stones in the area where you enter seclusion. This is because at the moment of Core Formation, the Jin Dan will surge with multicolored light and open all the meridians in the body. The Jin Dan will produce a mysterious attractive force that can draw out the spirit Qi of many spirit stones. It is very useful for cultivators and is equivalent to increasing one's cultivation by a bit. "
"In addition to these, is there anything else I need to pay attention to?"
After seeing Li Yizhan nod, Weisuo earnestly bowed and said, "In that case, I will begin preparing and won't delay Senior Li's healing time."
"No need to be polite." Li Yizhan stood up with a smile and returned the bow. "If Little Friend Wei succeeds in Core Formation, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire Yunling Continent."
After a few more polite words, Weisuo sent Li Yizhan out and asked the Hai Xian Sect disciples waiting outside to help Li Yizhan find a place to cultivate. After returning to his residence, Weisuo asked the square-faced Hai Xian Sect disciple named Zhang Hanlin, "Does our Hai Xian Sect have a pill like the Golden Gilt Dao Pill?"
"Golden Gilt Dao Pill?" The square-faced Hai Xian Sect cultivator, who looked somewhat honest, suddenly panicked. "This disciple will have to check to know."
"Then help me check. If the sect doesn't have it, then send someone to help me inquire about this Golden Gilt Dao Pill. I am a little anxious about this matter. However, you must remember not to spread the news that I want this medicinal pill. It is best if no one knows that our Sea Immortal Sect wants this medicinal pill. "Wei Suo glanced at the Sea Immortal Sect disciple without batting an eyelid, nodded, and instructed.
"This disciple understands." The square-faced Hai Xian Sect disciple immediately nodded.
