Deep underground, in a naturally formed narrow cave, Yang Xuan suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face pale.
At this moment, he couldn't even move a finger.
Wood element spiritual energy slowly entered his body, bit by bit, healing the serious injuries in his body.
If it weren't for the heaven-defying recovery effect of wood element spirit energy, he would already be a dead man.
Zuo Qing Hou!
He repeatedly savored this name in his mind, his eyes filled with killing intent.
Thirteenth on the Ranking List of Young Masters, a well-deserved reputation.
A burst of pain came from his body, interrupting his train of thought. After forcibly suppressing his chaotic thoughts, he concentrated on mobilizing his spiritual energy to heal his injuries.
Time passed.
After an unknown amount of time, Yang Xuan finally exhaled deeply and sat up from the ground.
His injuries were more or less healed.
Only now did he have the leisure to focus his attention on the black bead in his body.
With a glance, he immediately found something different.
Originally, the black bead was completely black, without any ripples, but strangely, a small whirlpool had appeared and was still spinning.
Yang Xuan looked. He didn't know why the black bead had changed like this.
But a thought appeared in his mind: Could it be because it had absorbed the black shadows that filled the sky?
Ever since the black bead had entered his body, he had tried to figure out what the black bead was more than once. However, no matter what he did, the black bead remained unmoved. Other than the two strange fluctuations it emitted, there was no other reaction.
But now, a small whirlpool had appeared in the black bead. He didn't know if this change was good or bad.
Yang Xuan quietly stared at the black bead, motionless. The whirlpool in the mysterious black bead was still spinning, but it slowed down as if it was about to stop.
The moment the whirlpool stopped spinning, the black bead suddenly spat out a strange power.
This power was extremely small and didn't emit much Qi. Moreover, as soon as it appeared, it completely disappeared.
But in the next moment, Yang Xuan was shocked.
As if soaking in a hot spring, all thirty-six thousand pores on his body opened, and he felt comfortable all over.
The injuries in his body that had yet to fully recover were instantly healed, and his condition was even better than before.
However, this was nothing. What shocked Yang Xuan was that he could feel his mind power growing at an extremely fast speed. His soul was also growing at an extremely fast speed.
Soul force!
Yang Xuan finally knew what kind of power the black bead had spat out. It was soul power, incomparably pure soul power.
This incomparably pure soul energy was actually nourishing his soul, causing it to begin to grow stronger and stronger.
Yang Xuan carefully sensed this strange sensation, and slowly, his heart began to stir.
The growth of his soul had stopped, and the strength of his soul had increased by more than 20%.
Before he could rejoice, what happened next made him feel as if he had been struck by lightning. His entire body froze.
As the growth of his soul stopped, the huge golden core that was originally quietly suspended in the void of his dantian actually made a cracking sound, and then a small crack appeared.
Although the crack was so small that it could not be seen if one did not look carefully, it was a real crack.
Yang Xuan's entire body froze, and he couldn't move.
A phrase appeared in his mind: Breaking the core to form the nascent soul!
Nascent soul!
When he saw this crack, he was enlightened!
He finally understood why he couldn't break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
Cultivation was flesh and blood, and the soul was divine.
To enter the Nascent Soul realm, one's cultivation and soul had to reach the peak of the Golden Core realm at the same time. However, his cultivation had only reached the peak of the Golden Core realm, and his soul power had never caught up.
This was like the birth of a baby. Not only did the body come into this world, but the soul should also come at the same time.
Nascent soul was nascent soul, and the primordial spirit was before the nascent body. What was the primordial spirit? It was his soul.
To break through to the Nascent Soul realm, he had to increase his soul power and let it grow into a primordial spirit. At that time, breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm would be a matter of course.
Yang Xuan's thoughts turned, and he was so excited that his body trembled slightly.
He thought of the black pearl in his body again, and the scene where the black pearl absorbed the sky full of black shadows.
Zuo Qinghou had once said that what he absorbed into his body were the souls of those who were called Holy Disciples. From this, it seemed that this mysterious black pearl could absorb souls, and then convert them into incomparably pure soul power, and use this to strengthen the soul.
He also understood why the black pearl had absorbed the black shadows, but didn't release any soul power.
Because the absorbed soul power was not enough to make the black pearl produce enough power for his soul to grow, so it accumulated.
If the black pearl could absorb enough souls, then, did it mean that he could obtain enough soul power to strengthen his soul, and let it grow into a primordial spirit?
And when his soul grew into a primordial spirit, it was also when he broke through to the Nascent Soul realm.
Yang Xuan's face revealed a smile, and his eyes were clear.
He had never been so clear about his path as at this moment.
However, a new problem appeared: where could he get so many souls for the black pearl to absorb?
Killing people was the first thing he eliminated. Killing people who deserved to die was fine, but if he killed innocent people in order to improve his cultivation, he would immediately develop an inner demon.
Then, the only thing left was to snatch.
Yang Xuan's eyes lit up, and he thought of the Holy Disciples.
If the Holy Mountain was a force that used souls to cultivate and fight against enemies, then could he snatch a lot of soul power from the Holy Mountain?
However, so far, he had only seen a few Holy Disciples. Snatching soul power from the Holy Mountain was tantamount to an illusion for him now.
Then, there was only one person left.
The thirteenth on the Ranking List of Young Masters, Zuo Qinghou.
When a Holy Disciple took out the square black stone, the black pearl in his body fluctuated. If he didn't guess wrong, that black stone should contain an extremely large amount of soul power, which caused the black pearl to fluctuate.
Yang Xuan's eyes became colder and colder. At this moment, he wanted to kill Zuo Qinghou.
He was determined to get that black stone.
As his mind spun, he suddenly froze.
He felt that a large amount of spiritual energy suddenly rushed to him, then entered his body and quickly converged into the Golden Core.
The Golden Core was slowly growing.
Yang Xuan's heart moved. The next moment, he disappeared and appeared on the top of a mountain.
Endless spiritual energy formed a vortex above his head, crazily pouring into his body.
The Golden Core rotated rapidly, and in the incomparable influx of spiritual energy, it grew stronger bit by bit.
Too slow!
Yang Xuan inexplicably had such a thought.
The next moment, a large number of spirit stones suddenly appeared on the ground around him.
These spirit stones were the ones he had always put in the Storage Ring.
As soon as the spirit stones appeared, they dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Yang Xuan was so comfortable that he almost groaned, as if he had eaten ice cream in the dog days of summer.
After an unknown period of time, finally, the Golden Core in his body stopped rotating and became still as if it had eaten its fill.
At this time, half of the spirit stones he had placed on the ground had disappeared.
Putting away the remaining spirit stones, Yang Xuan's face showed a smile. Under his inner vision, he found that in just a short time, the total amount of spiritual energy in his body had increased by about 30%.
His soul force increased by 20%, which made the storage of spiritual energy in his body increase by 30%.
He had already understood what was going on.
The water tank had increased in size, so naturally, the amount of water it could hold was more.
The harvest was huge. He didn't expect to gain so much from the battle with Zuo Qinghou. Not only did he understand how to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, but he also figured out the use of the mysterious black bead in his body. Unexpectedly, his soul force increased greatly, and his cultivation also increased by 30%.
After calming down, Yang Xuan looked in the direction of Tang City.
"Zuo Qinghou, hand over the thing, and I'll let you go!" At this moment, his heart was extremely hot, but his eyes were as cold as ice.
