Boom!

The moment the pill-shaped object in his body condensed, the core of his dantian immediately produced a shocking suction force, crazily absorbing the viscous liquid magic power around him like a whale swallowing. This was a sign that the core was about to be completed. At the same time, it was the most critical moment of Core Formation.

Shen Ping did not dare to be distracted at all. He controlled his Nascent Soul divine sense to guide the pure Foundation Establishment magic power that his meridians kept transforming into. Then, he quickly converged them into his dantian through the Circulatory Cycle.

As boundless Foundation Establishment magic powers surged in, the liquid magic power that had gradually thinned because of the absorption of the pill-like substance became sticky again.

In this cycle, the pill-shaped object became more and more round and full, and a layer of golden luster was faintly revealed on the surface. When the Golden Core completely took shape, waves of powerful magic power pressure seeped out of his dantian and spread in all directions, rushing the blood qi that filled the top of the strange beast blood pool to the edge.

Shen Ping slowly opened his eyes. He knew that the most dangerous step of Core Formation had passed. All that was left was to absorb and transmit magic power to forge the core patterns. However, he still did not dare to relax at all.

Psst.

At this moment, the intense pain of cramping and breaking bones assaulted him. His entire body trembled. This pain rushed to the depths of his soul, and his thoughts seemed to be about to stop.

Shen Ping gritted his teeth and endured. His powerful willpower divided a trace of his divine sense to take out the jade bottle and apply it. Soon, the coldness suppressed the pain. The huge medicinal power seeped into the skin and acupoints of his body again.

With sufficient medicinal power and sufficient magic power from the evolution of the strange beast’s blood, golden patterns began to appear on the surface of the Golden Core.

Although this process was not dangerous during the Core Formation stage, the number of patterns formed in the end was related to the cultivator’s future potential. If one wanted to forge more than six patterns, other than their own foundation, it mainly depended on supplementary resources.

The core powder made from 18 restricted resources of the True Treasure Pavilion was undoubtedly the best. Especially when soaking in the blood pool, the entire forging process was much faster. However, Shen Ping had to endure unimaginable pain.

Two months.

Three months.

In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.

Elder Hui Yue, who was in charge of the Beast Spirit Pool, had just sent away a core talent who was soaking in the blood pool. When he closed the heavy hall door, his eyes glanced at the largest stone door in the depths, and his pupils could not help but reveal a trace of surprise.

Soaking in the blood pool to assist in the Core Formation was different from increasing one’s physique and bone structure. This was because during this period, one needed to use core powder to suppress it. Therefore, every time the blood of the strange beast boiled, the pain would multiply. Even if one’s divine sense was strong, the core member with strong willpower would find it difficult to last for half a year.

He had heard that this registered disciple of the Head Hall Master had only cultivated for less than 70 years. At such a young age, he originally thought that persevering for four to five months was the limit. He did not expect that half a year had passed.

“It seems that this Talisman Master is indeed extraordinary.” Elder Hui Yue could not help but praise in his heart. With the stone door array, he was not worried that anything would happen to Shen Ping.

The other party could last for so long. His Dao foundation was clearly far superior to other cultivators. After all, the core powder was mainly used as a support. The true deciding factor for the level of core patterns was still one’s foundation.

Two figures were sitting and drinking tea in the long pavilion in the corridor in Dan Hai Hall.

Among them, Hall Master Dan Hai, whose beard and hair were all white, looked sideways in the direction of the main hall and could not help but sigh. “Half a year has passed since Talisman Master Shen went to the Beast Spirit Pool to form his core. I wonder how the situation is.”

Perfected Lord Yu smiled. “Hall Master, the longer you cultivate in the Beast Spirit Pool, the greater the benefits. Talisman Master Shen’s Dao foundation is thick, and his divine sense has reached the Nascent Soul realm. If nothing unexpected happens, he’ll at least be able to refine a seven pattern core.”

Hall Master Dan Hai stroked his beard and nodded. “The situation of every core genius is different. Core Formation will also be affected by many factors. As long as he forge seven patterns, be it Nascent Soul or Divine Transformation, he will benefit greatly in the future. As for whether or not he can obtain eight or even stronger nine patterns, it will depend on Talisman Master Shen’s luck.”

Perfected Lord Yu didn’t say anything. Not to mention the True Treasure Pavilion, even in the five continents and four seas, cultivators who had formed the nine patterns of the core were extremely rare. To be able to have such an achievement, it was definitely a huge opportunity. Moreover, perseverance, talent, and fortune were indispensable. They even needed a trace of luck.

Talisman Master Shen was so monstrous in the Dao of Talismans and had only cultivated for a short period of time. Clearly, he was a person with deep fortune. Coupled with the resources of the True Treasure Pavilion’s headquarters, it was very likely for him to have seven or eight patterns.

However, whether he could forge nine patterns still depended on his luck.

Hall Master Shan Huo was also emotional. Half a year had passed. Talisman Master Shen had yet to come out of the Beast Spirit Pool. It was obvious that the patterns cast by his Core Formation would not be low. Therefore, not only him, but many members in the headquarters who were paying attention to Shen Ping could not help but discuss and guess the level of his Core Formation this time.

Most of the members were inclined to eight patterns. This was because in the past, those core geniuses that stayed for nearly half a year were basically above seven patterns. After half a year, they would definitely have eight patterns.

A small number of people thought that Shen Ping could surprise people again and form a nine pattern core.

On the floating spiritual peak of the island in the main hall that was like an immortal palace.

Hall Master Yueling listened to the low discussion of Shen Ping’s core patterns by the guard on duty at the entrance of the hall and could not help but shake his head gently. He did not scold him. Instead, he laughed in his heart. “This little fellow is really the most dazzling Talisman Master in the headquarters. Every move he makes can cause quite a commotion. Could it be that his Core Formation can surprise us in half a year?”

He subconsciously looked up at the ethereal sky. The Head Hall Master was probably also holding on to this Talisman Master Shen.

Beast Spirit Pool.

In the largest stone door blood pool.

Shen Ping, who was sitting cross-legged, was already enveloped by dense blood energy. After soaking for a long time, a thick blood cocoon had condensed on his skin. Only the dantian could vaguely see the luster of his skin..
