Reforging Golden-Core Formation Pills
Although he knew it was almost impossible to accomplish, and even if he did, his hope of breaking through to the Nascent Soul was extremely slim, it was still a glimmer of hope.
As for what will happen to the Deng Clan after the defeat, who cares about the deluge after I'm gone?
Unlike Demon Baleful Intent, Evil Qi and Fire Baleful Force Sha Qi do not affect a cultivator's combat power or harm their physical body, but they do erode a person's soul and Dao heart.
Therefore, cultivators who enter the Demonic Path or Evil Dao often become increasingly distorted in character, and their greed and evil thoughts will amplify without limit. Without astonishing willpower, it is simply impossible for them to control their true nature.
This is also why Devil Cultivator are often driven by profit and commit heinous acts.
However, due to their lack of perseverance and Dao heart, Devil Cultivator and those on the Evil Dao often find it increasingly difficult to break through in the later stages, making it more than ten times harder for them to break through to the Primordial Spirit realm than for those on the righteous path.
Except for a very few individuals with extraordinary willpower who can overcome the demonic obstacles in their hearts, almost all Devil Cultivator will eventually have their souls eroded.
They can't even control their own desires, their souls are corrupted by evil Sha Qi, and they eventually become muddle-headed and confused.
Even their memories will be completely destroyed by the Demon Baleful Intent, making them unable to recall their past lives and turning them into a demon unable to control their desires.
This is the main reason why righteous cultivators despise the Demonic Path and are unwilling to walk this evil path.
Although the Essence-Draining Technique is not as evil as the Demonic Path, it is still derived from the Demonic Path. The Deng Clan chief had secretly cultivated the Evil Dao for many years, and his soul was also eroded by the resentment brought about by the Essence-Draining Technique.
Normally, he could control his desires by relying on his cultivation, but now that the fortuitous opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul stage was before him, he was ultimately overwhelmed by evil thoughts.
He grinned maliciously, "If we join forces with Earth Lion Ridge, even if we can't capture them, we should have a good chance of killing them."
"You can try to make contact, but you must keep our identities hidden."
Seeing that the clan chief had agreed, Deng Tiankun was overjoyed.
"I'll arrange it right away."
"..."
On the other side.
The three returned to the Chu Kingdom, and Yan Ziji farewell to the two and the others.
Before leaving, she thought for a moment and said, "The direct descendants of the Deng Clan practice Evil Dao; no one knows if their higher-ups have taken this path."
"You should be a little more careful from now on."
"Hmm." Jiang Linglong nodded and said calmly, "I will break through to the Golden Core Middle Stage within twenty years, and then I can naturally deal with them."
Yan Ziji nodded upon hearing this. With Jiang Linglong's background and foundation, she would definitely undergo a tremendous transformation once she broke through to the Golden Core Middle Stage. At that time, the Deng Clan would be no threat at all.
Moreover, if Deng Clan were even slightly rational, he most likely wouldn't take action against them.
Goodbye then.
After Yan Ziji, Jiang Linglong and Chen Nianzhi flew towards the Heavenly Ruins Alliance.
Upon returning to Azure Sun Mountain, in order to prevent the vital energy within the Black Flood Dragon Treasure Ship Demon King Core from further dissipating, the two immediately set to work, starting a furnace to refine Golden-Core Formation Pill.
This was the third time the two of them had refined the Golden-Core Formation Pill. Not to mention Jiang Linglong, even Chen Nianzhi was quite skilled at the steps of refining this pill.
With the help of the power of Tier 4 Earthfire, the two spent more than a month refining the Black Flood Dragon Treasure Ship Demon Core and Heart of Heaven Grass into a medicinal liquid, and then added one auxiliary medicine after another.
This process lasted three months, and in the end, only two and a half clumps of elixir were condensed.
"Unfortunately, much of the medicinal effect has been lost."
Looking at the medicinal liquid in the Pill Furnace, Jiang Linglong said with some regret.
A single inner core at the early Golden Core stage should theoretically be enough to condense into three or four pills, but now only two and a half remain, indicating that at least 40% of its medicinal power has been lost.
Suppressing the thought, she used the method of combining pills to integrate the half-ball of pill liquid into the two balls of pill liquid, and then began to condense the Golden-Core Formation Pill.
There were no major surprises, and in the end, this batch of materials yielded two Golden-Core Formation Pill.
"Two pills from one furnace, that's not bad."
Chen Nianzhi was quite satisfied. Even with 40% of the medicinal power lost, Jiang Linglong was still able to refine two pills. Such Alchemy Art were quite good even among Tier 4 Mid-Grade.
After putting away the two Golden-Core Formation Pill, the two continued to refine the Crimson Scorpion Demon King's inner core without stopping.
This inner core is of the middle grade of the Tier 4 Mid-Grade, and its Power of Creation is much stronger than that of the early Golden Core stage. In theory, under extreme circumstances, it could be used to refine five or six Golden-Core Formation Pill.
However, the demon cores of the mid-stage Golden Core are extremely difficult to refine, even with the power of the underground fire veins of Qingyang Mountain, they are somewhat insufficient.
It took the two of them two months, and even the use of their own Law Power, to dissolve the Demon Core, eventually forming six clumps of liquid pills.
"The Heavenly Dao is flawed, and my Alchemy Art are also insufficient. At this moment, it is almost impossible to refine the maximum of six at the same time."
Jiang Linglong spoke calmly, then used the Pill-Merging Method to integrate one of the pills into the other five, and then began the most crucial step of pill condensation.
After a while, a wisp of green smoke rose, and one of the pills turned into green smoke and dissipated.
Without pausing for a moment, she swiftly refined the other four pills into a single pill, and this time, thankfully, no unexpected incidents occurred.
She was somewhat pleased to have refined four Golden-Core Formation Pill, but also said with a hint of regret.
"That fifth one is a pity. The medicinal power of the Heart of Heaven Grass is limited. With only one Heart of Heaven Grass, it's not enough to refine five Golden-Core Formation Pill."
"Um,"
Chen Nianzhi nodded as well, he also sensed the reason why the pill liquid failed to condense.
It seems that to refine more than five Golden-Core Formation Pill in one batch, not only is the inner core's Power of Creation required, but also at least two Heart of Heaven Grass are needed.
Regardless, Jiang Linglong was overjoyed that a total of six Golden-Core Formation Pill pills were refined in the two batches.
She carefully packed the items into a jade box, gave two of them to Chen Nianzhi, and said, "In a few years, your Old Granduncle should be close to breaking through to the Golden Core realm realm, so please don't refuse."
You're so thoughtful.
Chen Nianzhi smiled and accepted the Precious Pill. With two Golden-Core Formation Pill in hand, it would be enough for the Old Clan Leader to attempt to break through to the Golden Core realm realm twice.
Since it concerned his Old Granduncle's Dao Path, he naturally wouldn't refuse.
Jiang Linglong planned to keep one of the other four for Lin Qianshu, and Yan Ziji would buy one for the Hibiscus Fairy of the Purple Abyss Sect.
The remaining two were sold to Xu Ganyang and Patriarch Fang. The merits of the Fang Clan and Xu Clan in the Beast Turmoil were barely touched. If a million Spirit Stone were added, it would be enough to exchange Golden-Core Formation Pill.
Soon after, news of Jiang Linglong's Golden-Core Formation Pill spread Chu Kingdom.
Xu Ganyang and Fang Qingmei were extremely excited and began borrowing Spirit Stone from all over the place in an attempt to buy a Golden-Core Formation Pill.
They consumed a Golden-Core Formation Pill about twenty years ago and have already broken through to the False Core realm stage. Now, even without external aids, they should have a 30% chance of breaking through to the Golden Core realm.
If they could obtain another Golden-Core Formation Pill now, their chances would be fifty percent, a probability worth the entire clan's gamble.
