Chapter 1926: Chapter 712: Nascent Soul Formation
"The opportunity for Nascent Soul Formation has arrived!"
When the fetal movement echoed, Luo Chen naturally realized it.
In that fleeting moment, his mind seemed to harmonize with heaven and earth, feeling a seamless fusion.
However!
Due to this momentary distraction, the Golden Core within him became dormant again, and that sensation vanished in an instant.
Yet, Luo Chen didn’t regret not seizing that opportunity.
Because he knew that the realm had been reached, and with more attempts, he could recreate that feeling.
He seized the moment, carefully reliving that fleeting experience earlier.
"The Golden Core, fused with the Three Treasures, transforms into a Nascent Embryo, merging with heaven and earth as one. Through this opportunity, one can condense the True Infant in the Nascent Embryo, also known as Golden Core Transformation to Nascent, akin to the birthing process of a woman."
"But from another perspective, what is a Nascent Embryo if not the convergence of man and heaven and earth to form an egg."
"Fetal movement is thus the echo with the universe."
"And this process, during Nascent Soul Formation, must be maintained at all times, or all efforts will be wasted."
"For a Golden Core Cultivator, forcibly maintaining this fetal movement is incredibly challenging. Therefore, external forces are necessary!"
The so-called external forces are nothing but external assistance or stimuli.
Firstly, the Fourth Order Spirit Vein!
Such a Spirit Vein already shows signs of a Blessed Land and can influence the regional environment. The Spiritual Soil across Longyuan Island is an example of this.
If a cultivator can use the fetal movement state to channel Spirit Qi from the Fourth Order Spirit Vein as an aid, it can greatly extend the time of merging with heaven and earth.
Second, the Nascent Soul Formation Pill!
Leveraging the power of the elixir, in a short period, forcibly enhancing the Three Treasures of essence, qi, and spirit, making the Nascent Embryo more condensed, thereby securing more time.
Perhaps in a Great Sect, there are other treasures that assist in Nascent Soul Formation.
But for Luo Chen, these two are already sufficient.
In fact, when the fetal movement state was broken earlier, he felt that he could forcefully re-enter this state.
This feeling is not an illusion!
Luo Chen took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and attempted the Three Treasures Unification using the Nascent Soul Formation Technique he had comprehended in his early years.
As expected!
A half-day later, a dull rhythmic pulse came from the Sea of Qi.
Fetal movement once again!
This time, Luo Chen did not get distracted but carefully comprehended its subtleties.
He finally discovered that apart from his deep foundation and superior intensity of the Three Treasures before the Golden Core Finalization, the key factor allowing him to enter fetal movement state at any moment was his physique—the Fire Spirit Body!
This body is indeed a marvel of nature.
Thus, when merging with heaven and earth, it encountered almost no obstacles and was extremely harmonious.
Exiting that state.
"Phew..."
Luo Chen exhaled a long breath.
Han Zhan was not mistaken. With his foundation, he truly could attempt to achieve Nascent Soul Formation without relying on a Nascent Soul Formation Pill.
However, whether he can succeed depends on how long he can maintain that state.
Luo Chen does not wish to fight a battle he’s not confident in, at least aiming for absolute certainty in cultivation!
Hence, it’s better to play it safe.
Luo Chen stood up, left the thatched hut, and walked outside the Reverse Five Elements Spirit Formation.
With a wave, he dismantled the formation, revealing a Copper Basin tinged with yellow.
Luo Chen observed closely and saw nine Five-Colored Pill Pellets the size of dragon eyes, arranged in specific positions within the copper basin.
As the formation was removed, losing its cover, six of the pills instantly turned to dust as if they were weathered away.
Only three remained.
"Hmm..."
Luo Chen murmured, picking up the three Nascent Soul Formation Pills.
Under his scrutiny, the result quickly surfaced.
Two pills had stepped over the threshold, reaching Fourth Order Medium Grade.
But the main one cultivated for nurturing, dazzlingly colorful, had such intense medicinal power that it couldn’t be contained, with tendrils slowly escaping outward.
Luo Chen’s gaze focused as he cast two mana prohibitions to prevent the leakage of the medicinal power.
Yet despite this, the effect was still negligible.
"The Pills nurtured through the Pill Cultivation Technique are ultimately not as stable as those refined personally; this medicinal power likely won’t last long."
"This technique still has flaws."
"However, this result has already exceeded my expectations."
Top Grade Infant Formation Pill!
Indeed, this Nascent Soul Formation Pill, with its medicinal power frantically leaking, achieved a superior grade of Fourth Order.
The cloud patterns on its surface were faint and its luster vibrant, undeniably top-quality among pills!
"As such, my schedule for Nascent Soul Formation must not be delayed at all."
Feeling the continually leaking medicinal power of the Nascent Soul Formation Pill, Luo Chen smiled slightly, not hurried, but full of confidence!
...
For cultivators, dwelling in seclusion and devoted cultivation, disengaged from worldly affairs, often feels as though time flies by.
Since arriving at Longyuan Island, it’s been twenty years!
There were no dramatic shifts, nor deceitful schemes, or bloody wars.
On the island, everyone did their own thing, enhancing their cultivation level, like a paradise detached from the world.
Sang Jinghe was in the southern part of Longyuan Island, tinkering with a lush pool, with a few trees planted inside.
He borrowed from Luo Chen’s Blood Pool Pill Refinement method, seemingly trying to cultivate some kind of Spiritual Tree with it.
In a Sound Prohibition Formation, Tian Xuan wielded a Banana Fan, occasionally unleashing astonishingly powerful windstorms of various attributes.
Her face was filled with excitement.
In these twenty years, she not only stabilized the Sixth Layer of Golden Core realm but thoroughly comprehended the "Huan Yu Secret Book" and developed several personalized killer moves.
And the greatest harvest was the Nine Winds Banana Fan, an Ascendant Grade Magic Item.
In the past, limited by her own abilities, she could only exert a small portion of its power.
But now, it’s been thoroughly refined. Combined with her Xun Wind Physique, her combat power has skyrocketed!
Thus, not only does she have a suitable precious item, but in future battles, she can also contribute more strength to her master.
