Chapter 2456

For a cultivator, breaking the Golden Core to form a Nascent Soul is a process both profoundly mystical and excruciatingly painful. The transition from Golden Core to Nascent Soul signifies a rebirth for the practitioner. For Chen Xuan, a man of humble secular origins rather than one bathed in the spiritual energy of the Mountain-Sea Realm since childhood, this transformation is all the more critical. Once the Nascent Soul is formed, it serves as an entirely new body for Chen Xuan. Cultivated through the most supreme martial arts techniques, this new form will allow him to truly shed his mortal shell, transcend the mundane, and ascend to the ranks of mid-level cultivators. However, one careless misstep during the process, and he would fall into an abyss of no return. At this moment, within the void of Chen Xuan’s inner consciousness, his hard-forged martial Golden Core hung suspended, radiant and brilliant; it was the condensation of every effort and serendipitous encounter he had experienced since beginning his path of cultivation. To force this Golden Core to shatter and condense into a Nascent Soul under the momentum of the "Nine Energies Unified Human-Dragon Battle Qi," the first step was to ingest auxiliary secret medicines. These had to enter the Dantian to stabilize the structure of the Golden Core.
