Qi and Blood Golden Core Technique Stymied
Yu Xiaogang looked at the internal organs, meridians, and blood vessels of his body, Simulation using his Mental Power, along with a stream of Bloodline Power personally provided by Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang was now staring intently at the Simulation lower dantian in front of him, while Deep Blue observed and recorded the data. Yun Lan extended a Blue Silver Grass vine to transmit Life Soul Power to support Yu Xiaogang's Simulation body and prevent it from collapsing.
Within that illusory physical body Bloodline Power circulated through the blood vessels and meridians. Si Si -Yun Lan energy transmitted Life Soul Power and were refined into Blood One. It was evident that this Bloodline Power was growing stronger and stronger, and it was about to enter the critical moment of core formation.
Yu Xiaogang was a little unsure, after all, this was the 148th experiment in the past few months. Every time Yu Xiaogang saw the Simulation virtual body either explode due to the violent blood energy, or the blood energy was suppressed too much and exploded, severing all the virtual internal organs and meridians.
Yu Xiaogang also tried using the imaginative concepts from his novels, even experimenting with cyclones. However, his blood and qi energy became too violent, and at the last moment, he couldn't control the violent suction force, instantly draining all his energy and turning him into an energy bead.
At the time, Yu Xiaogang thought he had succeeded, but Deep Blue poured cold water on his hopes. Yu Xiaogang still remembers Deep Blue's hesitant expression at that moment. In the end, Deep Blue tactfully said:
"Master! Don't be sad! At least you managed to get the spirit stone from the cultivation novel! This energy bead is great as Soul Tool energy system. At least you've gained something after all this time, haven't you, Master!"
Yu Xiaogang looked at Deep Blue in surprise and confusion, but Deep Blue blinked its innocent big eyes at its master's questioning gaze. Yu Xiaogang asked in bewilderment:
"Why didn't you succeed? Didn't you complete the Core Formation stage? Deep Blue, how can you say you failed? This..."
The more Yu Xiaogang spoke, the more uneasy he felt. He held up the white energy bead in his hand, sensing something was amiss. Seeing its master hadn't yet reacted, Deep Blue flapped its small wings and flew to Yu Xiaogang's hand, stroking the bead's stable energy, saying:
"Master, didn't you notice? The last vortex of blood and qi energy drained all the energy in an instant, including the Simulation physical body. Master, you are now holding an energy crystal, not some kind of Qi and Blood Golden Core!"
That was a big blow to Yu Xiaogang, but failure is the mother of success! Yu Xiaogang put aside everything and let Flender help manage the Dragon Gate Sect. Now, every day Bibi Dong personally delivers meals and spends some time with Yu Xiaogang, giving him loving encouragement.
Having found the right direction for their Qi and Blood Golden Core experiments, Yu Xiaogang and Deep Blue Lan threw themselves into the task, searching for a safe way to condense the Qi and Blood Golden Core. After several experiments, Yu Xiaogang obtained a box of energy crystals, meaning he wouldn't have to worry about running out of energy for Yu Xiaogang Soul Tool manufacturing from now on.
Yu Xiaogang recalled his experimental experiences over the past few months and couldn't help but sigh that his Golden Finger wasn't some heaven-defying comprehension. He could easily master any technique, just like in the novels, where an important thought would instantly produce a peerless technique.
If it weren't for the time-traveling phone undergoing a strange change during the time travel, Yu Xiaogang would have died long ago on the path of creating his own cultivation technique. Yu Xiaogang is now somewhat grateful that he had Deep Blue and Yun Lan to help with Simulation and deductions.
At first, Deep Blue used the old method of data deduction like a supercomputer. Yu Xiaogang felt he wasn't involved, so when he saw the projection, he thought of using energy and Mental Power to construct a virtual body and try to Simulation the internal meridians and organs of his own body.
This gave Deep Blue a glimmer of hope. After all, techniques derived from data analysis weren't 100% safe. Every time Yu Xiaogang happily practiced a technique Deep Blue had deduced, Deep Blue was mentally prepared to salvage it! This time, they used both physical and data analysis together, comparing them to see where the shortcomings lay. During this process, Yu Xiaogang came up with many innovative ideas, such as condensing an inner core from a seed or condensing it under pressure, but all failed. The closest he came to success was the Qi Cyclone technique, but so far, it was stuck at the final step.
Yu Xiaogang focused his mind on the wildly spinning vortex in the illusory lower dantian, and asked Deep Blue, who was now in working mode, uncertainly:
"Deep Blue, are you sure adding spiritual will will be successful? Why do you need to do it together with the Ice and Fire Body Tempering? I'm already feeling some mental pressure just from participating in the Simulation, like I'm in the deep sea."
Deep Blue pushed aside the projection screen displaying a waterfall of data and, looking every bit the mad scientist, said, "Master! Through data analysis and calculation, I've determined that adding the Ultimate Attribute of the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass can refine the meridians and dantian. It can effectively make the meridians purer during the condensation of the Golden Core, and also refine the blood and qi, increasing their quality and improving the probability of forming the Golden Core!"
Seeing that Deep Blue Zhizhu was in control, Yu Xiaogang felt relieved and began to focus all his efforts on controlling his mind and will to merge with the increasingly violent Bloodline Power. Yu Xiaogang felt as if he was controlling a raging blood dragon.
"Pfft! Boom! Boom!"
Even as the Golden Core was nearing completion, Yu Xiaogang couldn't control the increasingly violent Bloodline Power. Yu Xiaogang frowned, looking at the energy bead floating in the air. Yu Xiaogang one hand across his chest, he stroked his stubble-covered chin and muttered to himself, "Deep Blue, I feel I still need to complete the Ice and Fire Body Tempering first! And incidentally, further integrate my spiritual will into my Bloodline Power. Every time I reach the crucial final moment, I find that my spiritual will is completely disconnected from my Bloodline Power; the two energies are clearly separate, causing me to instantly lose control of my Bloodline Power."
While Deep Blue was recording and summarizing, Yun Lan struggled to clean up the mess and put the energy bead into the box. Although this was the closest Deep Blue had ever come to success, she still didn't want to waste the energy bead, as it was the best energy source for the Soul Tool.
"Master, would you like to rest for a bit? Yun Lan and I will tidy up the experimental table. You haven't slept all night, Master, why don't you take a nap on the sofa? Yun Lan and I will take care of everything here! Once you've rested, the Qi and Blood Golden Core Simulation experiment will be ready!"
Yu Xiaogang gave a wry smile to Busy Deep Blue and Yun Lan and said:
"Let's rest together! You've been busy with me all night, so get some rest and clear your minds."
Although Deep Blue and Yun Lan are both spiritual beings and don't experience fatigue, Yu Xiaogang still treats them as family and friends. This is something Deep Blue and Yun Lan appreciate, and they quickly clean up the mess from the experiment and return to their Sea of Consciousness for a short rest.
Yu Xiaogang went to the bathroom to wash up properly, took a hot bath, changed his clothes, and lay down on the sofa. He fell asleep without realizing it. As the sun began to slowly set, Bibi Dong brought the lunchbox over as usual.
Bibi Dong pushed open the door, she saw Yu Xiaogang soundly with a tired face. Feeling sorry for him, she walked over to him, gently put down the food box, and took a blanket to cover Yu Xiaogang with. Looking at Yu Xiaogang's increasingly handsome face and scholarly air, Bibi Dong couldn't help but gently lean down and kiss him.
Then Bibi Dong, like a kitten, quietly slipped into Yu Xiaogang's arms, hugged Yu Xiaogang, smelled his familiar scent, and fell into a deep sleep with a happy expression on her face.
