"Ahhhh!"
They were not physical entities. They were merely some evil thoughts and demonic thoughts wandering in the world. After the Empty Core, which was extremely pure and had no thoughts and thoughts, appeared, they were inevitably drawn by the laws of nature and surged into it, wanting to fill and destroy the Empty Core.
"Primordial Blood is born, all things return to silence …"
"Boom!"
Lu Sheng's body could move again after he reached the Foundation Building Perfected in one go. His physical body, spirit, and spirit merged into one. Naturally, he could easily control all the Yin vital energy in his body. The problem of his blood vessels and nerves slowing down due to the low temperature was easily resolved after his spirit adjusted the blood flow rate.
"Although I can continue diving, there's no need. This place is enough." He moved his vital energy and hovered in place.
After searching for a while without any results, Lu Sheng returned in disappointment.
He carefully sensed the changes in his body. Large amounts of Yin vital energy continued to surge into the 99 vortexes. His body became heavier, and he could not even move. However, his advancement to the late Foundation Building Realm this time was slightly different from the previous times.
After the 99 vortexes absorbed the Yin vital energy, a large amount of pure cold energy silently seeped out from the Dantian under his physical body, condensing into a semi-transparent blurry ball.
He also understood that he was an Extraterrestrial Demon. This was not a misunderstanding, nor was it a name given by the natives. It was obvious from the wandering demonic thoughts and evil thoughts. His identity as a Heavenly Demon was at the highest level of the food chain.
"The better the material, the stronger the artifact. The process of forming the core is also the process of upgrading an artifact to a treasure. Let me see what I can integrate … "Lu Sheng was interested. He held the silver metal ball in his hand, walked out of the cave abode, and went straight to the treasure vault.
In reality, such a small Empty Core could not accommodate all of his spirit. It could only accommodate less than one-tenth of his spirit before it overflowed and could no longer contain it.
Lu Sheng was about to make a move, but unexpectedly, the transparent snake-like creature that had just entered his body shrieked and fled in all directions, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
The Triad Brilliant Nether Collection had a certain ability to control water, and the vital energy it cultivated could also control water. Under the circulation of vital energy, he continuously controlled the water flow in front of him to separate and dive deeper.
Suddenly, Lu Sheng roared.
Fortunately, the rate of consumption was still within his control.
In the eyes of mortals, the Wood Martial Abode's master was high and mighty. In the eyes of Core Formation cultivators, however, he was just a country bumpkin. He was so poor that perhaps even the Foundation Building disciples of major sects were richer than him.
In the past, Daoist Mu Yun could only dive to about 2,000 meters at most. However, he was different. Regardless of whether it was the quality or quantity of his True Qi, he was far stronger than Mu Yun. Therefore, Lu Sheng decided to challenge the deepest diving depth.
Lu Sheng moved forward along the shallow sea, heading deeper and deeper into the sea.
Gulp.
The ice around Lu Sheng grew bigger and bigger, and its color turned bluer and bluer. In the air inside the cave, some indistinct blue snakes were attracted to the ice, dancing around it slowly.
After rummaging through the treasury for a long time, he regrettably did not find anything worthy of being integrated into a magic tool.
Lu Sheng's main body was curled up in the heart. Before he could grab a handful and taste it, he saw the group of little snakes scampering away and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
To avoid this strange trouble, Lu Sheng separated a wisp of vital energy. It flickered and circled around him, isolating all the miscellaneous items that were attracted to him.
Lu Sheng looked around. It was pitch-black everywhere. He could not see anything. The light coming from the surface of the sea above his head was completely negligible.
With the help of his vital energy, he dived very quickly. In less than ten minutes, according to the range of his spirit's senses, he had already reached a depth of 6,000 meters.
On the other hand, Little Fish was brainless and did not know what fear was. He dared to circle around Lu Sheng.
'The amount of vital energy I have right now is hundreds of times more than Mu Yun's when he was a perfected Foundation Building cultivator. The power of the same unit of vital energy is also several times greater than his. If I want to fully unleash the advantage of my vital energy, I'll need a lot of materials. However … With so many materials, as long as I have a slightly higher quality requirement, even if it's just iron essence, I'm afraid that even a major sect would struggle to get them, let alone a mere Wood Martial Abode master. Looks like I can only go that way … '
The outside of the cave faced the sea. The azure blue seawater undulated. The sun was bright, and there were no clouds in the sky. The wind was strong.
The rippling golden surface of the sea was above Lu Sheng's head. His body emanated a blue chill as he strolled toward the depths of the sea.
After spending another 200 Mental Energy units, he easily entered the Void Core tier. After that, he focused his mind and fused it with his spirit. With his Divine Lord-level spirit fusing with it, controlling a mere lesser Void Core was a piece of cake for him. In just a few minutes, he had complete control over it.
Colorful coral clumps could be seen everywhere in the shallow waters. There were also schools of little silver fish swimming about. Occasionally, a slightly larger sea snake would swim over. Before it could even get within 100 meters of Lu Sheng, it would turn around and flee. "Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! "
…
The whirlpool-like ice plates formed a huge, ferocious, icy Behemoth around him.
'Core formation isn't difficult. However, if I want to improve my Life Artifact, integrate better materials, and increase its power, I'll have to find some good materials and integrate them while I'm forming my Core.'
He quickly found a pitch-black trench and went straight downstream.
"Hiss!"
The moment the small ball appeared, Lu Sheng felt countless illusions flickering before his eyes. The air around him was quietly filled with a unique aura that he was extremely familiar with.
The Mist Clam Tribe lived in the shallow waters. It was the sand layer at the bottom of the sea. They occupied the most beautiful coral forest, and built an exquisite palace.
He could feel that the water temperature here was very low and cold. Although it was not enough to freeze, the bone-chilling coldness even penetrated his Pure Qi protective layer.
Everything around him was pitch-black and deathly silent.
Lu Sheng was very familiar with using his spirit. He felt that the world here was not easily deceived.
'It's done! Finally, I'll form my Core. 'He slowly rose to his feet. The ice around him shattered and fell to the ground.
His entire body was like a blue light source that gradually lit up in the seawater.
This was one of the tribulations that any Foundation Establishment cultivator would encounter. From this point onwards, every time they advanced a major realm, they would encounter different levels of tribulations.
In the quiet cave, the blue, half-transparent snake-like creatures that had been swimming around earlier had red eyes. They let out strange cries and pounced at Lu Sheng as if they had gone mad.
The two boys looked at each other. They did not know what the Cave Master planned to do this time. Could it be about the matter with the Mist Clam Tribe?
In the darkness, his originally pitch-black eyes gradually lit up with a bright, even piercing blue light.
'They've truly … gained intelligence … Didn't they say that these are just evil thoughts and devilish thoughts? Don't they have individual intelligence? 'He had just stretched out one of his claws and had just gotten into position, but he had not exerted his strength yet …
As for the Devil Tribulation that he had to face after advancing a major realm, ever since the first time those little snakes ran over and were frightened, no more Devil Tribulations had appeared after Lu Sheng broke through consecutively. Instead, a few Red Lotus Tribulations, Full Wind Tribulations, Heavy Water Tribulations, and so on appeared later on. However, to Lu Sheng's Divine Lord-level spirit, they were just child's play. He casually twisted the state of his physical body and easily deceived the locking mechanism of these tribulations. He made the world think that he had died under the tribulations, and then he easily passed through the tribulations.
In an instant, with him as the center, countless blue threads shot out in all directions, covering the sky and covering the earth. Amidst the large number of threads, ninety-nine whirlpool discs of different sizes formed rapidly. They were formed from a layer of pale blue ice.
"Absorb!!!"
In just half a minute after his breakthrough, Lu Sheng's body was covered in a thin layer of all sorts of miscellaneous items. There was dust, spores, some unknown bugs, and everything else.
A series of bubbles shot out from Lu Sheng's body. The close-fitting True Qi barrier he maintained was already under great pressure.
"Devil Tribulation?" Lu Sheng widened his eyes and was stunned. The Devil Tribulation was a special tribulation that would only be encountered when a late-stage Foundation Building cultivator was beginning to condense his Void Core.
Lu Sheng waved his hand, and all the cold air in the cavern suddenly shrank and was absorbed into his body. The cavern abode instantly warmed up and returned to its usual state.
'Looks like I can only try my previous idea.' If he wanted to fuse the materials into his Artifact, they must match the nature of the cultivation method he cultivated.
The huge snake opened its mouth, and swallowed a large amount of seawater.
Lu Sheng spread his arms slowly. The 99 True Qi whirlpools around his body, along with his Void Core, surged out a large amount of pale blue True Qi.
From afar, the entire Ice Behemoth looked like a huge blue snake that was sitting cross-legged.
Lu Sheng did not plan to attract the Mist Clam Clan's attention. Instead, he continued to dive deeper.
Lu Sheng was deep in thought. He had unknowingly left the Wood Martial Abode.
"Abode Master." When the boy guarding the door saw him coming out of seclusion, he quickly lowered his head and greeted him.
'Forget it … I've passed the late-stage Foundation Building stage. I can't even move my body. After that is the Void Core Realm, then the Deity Gathering Realm, and finally the Perfection Realm. Only then will I have the right to form my core. The realms after that are nothing more than using the 99 Vortexes to compress pure, cold Yin True Qi and gather it into the Void Core to solidify it. After that, I'll fuse my spirit into it. Only after I've established a good foundation in the Alchemy Deity Realm will I have the right to make my Void Core collide with pure Yang energy and produce the possibility of forming a true Inner Core. 'Lu Sheng eased up. The subsequent breakthroughs were not difficult at all. He just had to follow the prescribed order.
The snake-shaped creature pounced into the ice like an illusion. In an instant, it disappeared into Lu Sheng's body.
Under the pale blue seawater, rays of sunlight shone down from the surface of the sea, forming a golden pillar of light.
"If Iron Hammer and Yun Huan come looking for me, tell them that I'm out gathering materials. If there's really something urgent, use the Life Talisman to inform me." Lu Sheng gave a few simple instructions and ignored the boy. He flicked his sleeves lightly and leaped. In the blink of an eye, he flew down from the black cliff and into the seawater below, vanishing without a trace.
"Hiss!"
After attaining full mastery in one go, the True Qi in his body was like the abyss of the ocean. It was almost endless. Strange signs of collapse and distortion even appeared around his body. It was as if all sorts of Spiritual Powers and miscellaneous items in the air around him were being drawn over and covered his skin.
In addition to that, if he wanted to unleash the advantage of having a tremendous amount of True Qi, he would need a great amount of materials. Based on the material requirements, the few palm-sized balls of cold Yin materials in the treasure trove were not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.
