Chapter 344: Core Formation (3)

When he smelled this blood qi, the blood of the strange beast in Shen Ping's body instantly boiled. His entire face became as hot as fire, and his skin turned red.

When Elder Hui Yue saw this, he said as if he was used to it, “There's a large amount of blood essence of strange beasts in the Beast Spirit Pool. It will trigger the blood in any skill genius who has fused with the blood of strange beasts to burn. The more intense the reaction, the stronger the blood absorbed and transformed by the strange beast in their bodies.” He paused for a moment and squeezed out a smile on his wrinkled face. “Talisman Master Shen's reaction is the best transformation among the skill geniuses I've seen.”

Shen Ping tried his best to suppress his boiling blood. Even though he really wanted to sit down and cultivate now, he endured it and asked, “Elder Hui Yue, I-1 wonder what 1 should do in this situation?”

Elder Hui Yue took out a storage ring and handed it to Shen Ping. He continued, “There are many jade bottles in the ring. Inside are core powder that can help increase core patterns. It can help you suppress the blood of the strange beast. However, Talisman Master Shen, you have to remember that this is only suppressing it, not solving it. Later, as you begin to soak in the blood pool, the essence of the strange beast's blood will seep into your body, making you feel even more uncomfortable. It might even cause pain all over your body.

“Therefore, you have to apply the core powder on your dantian every ten days. Every time you apply it, the accumulated pain will increase.”

Shen Ping took the storage ring and scanned it with his divine sense. He saw the jade bottle inside, but he was not in a hurry to use it. Instead, he could not help but say, “In that case, the longer it takes to form the core, the stronger the pain!”

Eider Hui Yue nodded. “That's right. Soaking in the blood pool of the Beast Spirit Pool and core powder will quickly increase the time you need to form your core. Correspondingly, you have to endure pain that ordinary people can't bear. In the past, the longest that the core skill geniuses have lasted was for half a year.

“Of course, the longer it takes, the better the effect of soaking in the blood pool. The level of the core patterns condensed will also be better.”

Elder Hui Yue looked at Shen Ping meaningfully before bringing him into the hall. The hall was very empty. There were towering stone doors around him.

“The inside of these stone doors is a blood pool that can accommodate dozens of core geniuses at the same time. The second level of the stone door is used by the elders and hall masters of the various halls. Above that is the main hall.

“The fluorescent light in front of the stone door means that there's someone inside. Otherwise, there's no one inside. It's Talisman Master Shen's first time here, so I arranged the stone door. If you apply to come again in the future, you'll have to find a stone door yourself.”

As Elder Hui Yue briefly introduced, he brought Shen Ping to an obviously wide stone door. “This stone door is the main blood pool. The blood essence of the strange beasts inside is the richest, so the effect is naturally the best. Talisman Master Shen, you can just push the door open and enter. Remember, the time to soak in the Beast Spirit Pool is very precious. If you can't hold on and leave the range of the blood pool, it's fine.”

Shen Ping still gritted his teeth and endured the boiling blood of the strange beast in his body. He cupped his hands and asked, “Elder Hui Yue, if, if I accidentally faint during the soaking process…”

“There's a special array formation on the stone door. If the divine sense aura is severed, it will automatically open the stone door. I will rush over in a few breaths.”

Shen Ping heaved a sigh of relief. The process of Core Formation was long, and one's divine sense and spirit would always remain highly focused. Once one fainted, their divine sense would naturally no longer fluctuate. At that time, it would be the most dangerous. If there was no one protecting them, their Dao foundation would be completely destroyed.

Of course, under normal circumstances, cultivators rarely fainted when they formed their core.

“Talisman Master Shen. I wish you successful Core Formation!” Elder Hui Yue cupped his hands and turned to leave.

Shen Ping looked at the wide stone door in front of him and took a deep breath. He placed his palm on the stone door and pushed hard. The stone door opened. The thick and viscous blood energy was almost oppressive, making it difficult for Shen Ping to breathe. He held his breath and quickly stepped in.

Boom.

The stone door quickly closed. Shen Ping looked ahead and saw a wide blood pool about a hundred feet wide in his vision. It looked like a soul-stirring blood-colored gem. There were chains hanging above the blood pool, and the surface of each chain was flickering with patterns.

“Is this the true essence of the blood of the strange beast…?” As he muttered in his heart, Shen Ping's face and skin turned even redder. He did not dare to hesitate and immediately took out the jade bottle. Then, according to Elder Hui Yue, he took off his clothes and smeared the core powder on his dantian and lower abdomen.

Chi! Chi! Chi!

The core powder instantly seeped into his skin. Waves of coldness calmed the boiling blood of the strange beast.

Boom!

However, immediately after, an incomparably huge medicinal power passed through his skin and blood and instantly rushed to his limbs and bones. The Foundation Establishment magic power that had originally reached a round and abundant level became violent.

Shen Ping's powerful mid-stage Nascent Soul divine sense seeped into his dantian and meridians. As he guided his violent magic power, he quickly stepped into the blood pool.

After sitting cross-legged in the blood pool, the pain seemed to have drilled into his bones as it surged in every meridian node. The blood qi filled with the pure blood of the strange beast in the blood pool continuously seeped in from all directions. The blood in his body circulated crazily. Fortunately, there was the miraculous effect of the core powder to suppress it. Otherwise, just the boiling and crazy blood would be unbearable for Shen Ping.

At this moment, he did not have any distracting thoughts at all. His mind was completely focused on guiding and compressing the violent Foundation Establishment magic power in his dantian. However, he quickly discovered that as the pure blood qi of the blood pool surged in, his blood boiled, and the meridians in his dantian began to expand.

This gave the originally full and round Foundation Establishment Dharmic powers room to absorb.

Psst.

As soon as there was a gap in the capacity of the meridians and dantian, the metal, wood, and wind spiritual roots that had transformed into earth-level spiritual roots quickly absorbed the energy to transform the blood of the strange beast. Then, through the Foundation Establishment cultivation technique, the Qianyuan Scripture, it completely became Shen Ping's Foundation Establishment magic power that gathered in the dantian.

This process seems to be slow. However, after only a few dozen cycles, the medicinal power of the core powder completely disappeared, and the cold feeling also disappeared.

Buzz-

Almost instantly, Shen Ping's skin turned incomparably red. His body felt like it was being bitten by ten thousand ants, and it also felt like his muscles were cramping and pulling out his marrow. The pain was even more painful than the bone-cracking pain when his physique transformed back then. Even though his divine sense was powerful and he had such experience, he still gasped in pain.

Fortunately, he had a mid-stage Nascent Soul divine sense. He endured it and immediately took out a jade bottle to apply the core powder. This went on and on.

The third time.

The fourth time.

When he applied the core powder for the eighth time, the pain that spread throughout his body made his soul tremble. Even the huge mental strength of his Nascent Soul divine sense almost collapsed. If not for his strong will and having experienced the limit of suppressing the Talisman Beast Diagram's final form, he would not have been able to withstand it.

Boom.

Accompanied by coldness, Shen Ping recovered from the pain. The divine consciousness that seeped into his dantian restrained the violent magic power and began to crazily compress it to the limit to accommodate his dantian.

The liquid and viscous Foundation Establishment magic power gradually underwent a qualitative change under this continuous collision, friction, and compression. It condensed into even purer magic power. As soon as this magic power appeared, waves of spiritual pressure brought by the pressure of magic power quickly spread in all directions with him as the center.

However, this was the main stone door blood pool of the Beast Spirit Pool. The magic power and spiritual pressure quickly dissipated. If he was outside, this spiritual pressure would immediately cause a phenomenon of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Time passed slowly.

The transformed Foundation Establishment magic power began to rotate. During this rotation, the Foundation Establishment magic power that gathered in the dantian outside underwent a qualitative change.

At the core of this viscous liquid magic power, a pill-shaped object was quietly condensing..
