Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 411: 403: Dazzling Golden Light

It could even be said that, after breaking through the Foundation Establishment Realm and successfully condensing his divine sense, He Song’s understanding of it was much deeper than that of other cultivators.

After all, as a transmigrator with an inherently powerful soul, his divine sense was several times stronger than others upon establishing his Foundation.

He Song’s exceptional divine sense naturally brought him many benefits and conveniences.

The most important point was:

He Song’s cultivation had reached the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, and his divine sense was far more powerful than that of ordinary cultivators at the same stage.

Therefore, when the immense divine sense within the Mud Palace Pellet began to move at this moment and head toward the Golden Elixir Nucleus in his Elixir Field, He Song couldn’t help but feel a sense of anticipation.

His divine sense was stronger than that of other cultivators.

This refining of the Golden Elixir Nucleus, allowing his divine sense to fully come into contact with it and complete the Spirit Assignment, should be easier and smoother, right?

One must know that:

For other cultivators to Spirit Assign the Golden Elixir Nucleus, it usually takes thousands of hammers and hundreds of grinds, along with long periods of bombardment on the Golden Elixir Nucleus, and success isn’t even guaranteed.

In this situation, since his divine sense was stronger, the time required should be less than that of other cultivators.

With such thoughts in mind, He Song quickly manipulated his divine sense and entered his Elixir Field.

Generally speaking, one wouldn’t probe their Elixir Field with their divine sense.

Because if there was any mishap, the consequences would be hard to bear.

But to successfully congeal the elixir, it was something that every cultivator had to do.

As He Song’s divine sense entered his Elixir Field, he moved his thoughts, and his more powerful divine sense immediately bombarded the Golden Elixir Nucleus within.

With his divine sense transformed into a large hammer, he began the process of thousands of hammers and hundreds of grinds on the Golden Elixir Nucleus.

Every time the divine sense hammer fell on the Golden Elixir Nucleus, He Song’s body would tremble.

The Golden Elixir Nucleus was also a part of He Song’s mana.

Experiencing a heavy blow, it would naturally cause He Song to feel a sense of empathy.

However.

This was something that every successful cultivator who stepped onto the Golden Core Path had to experience.

He Song had already been mentally prepared for this.

As such, his expression quickly became more focused.

As time went by:

As the divine sense continued to fall on the Golden Elixir Nucleus, a vague sense of unease began to rise in He Song’s heart as well.

But after reviewing Master Yin Yue’s memories again and finding that there were no issues with his technique, He Song let go of his worries and continued the refining process.

Time passed by every minute and second.

As the divine sense transformed into a large hammer and repeatedly fell upon the Golden Elixir Nucleus,

The feeling of unease in He Song’s heart became increasingly intense.

As a Foundation Establishment Master, if he felt something was wrong, then there must be a significant matter.

He Song was sure he must have overlooked something.

However, he couldn’t figure out where the problem might lie after thinking it through.

After pondering for a while,

He Song frowned.

The divine sense hammer, which was used to refine the Golden Elixir Nucleus, gradually slowed down at this moment as well.

Also, as the refining process slowed, the feeling of unease in He Song’s heart began to dissipate.

Subconsciously,

He Song turned his attention to his Elixir Field.

Inside his Elixir Field, the originally unbreakable Golden Elixir Nucleus seemed to have been refined to the extreme, emitting dazzling golden light.

However, the more he looked at the Golden Elixir Nucleus, the more He Song felt something was off.

This light… why does it feel like it’s getting brighter with each hammering?

Could it be that once it reached its brightest state, it would successfully assign the spirit to the Golden Elixir Nucleus?

But in Master Yin Yue’s memories, there had never been such a scene.

In his memories,

Master Yin Yue had never experienced any unusual phenomena when refining the Golden Elixir Nucleus.

It was only at the moment of successful Spirit Assignment that his consciousness suddenly connected with the Golden Elixir Nucleus.

Seeing this,

He Song’s heart became somewhat uneasy,

But after some thought, he decided to stop his refining of the Golden Elixir Nucleus.

At the same time, he had various guesses about the reasons for such occurrences.

Could it be that his technique was wrong? But he was completely following the refining method, how could it be wrong?

Could there be a problem with the Golden Elixir Nucleus? But the same Golden Elixir Pill condensed Golden Elixir Nucleus, how could there be a problem?

Could it be that his divine sense was too strong, causing the force of refining the Golden Elixir Nucleus to be too great?

In the end, after considering many reasons, He Song finally found a reason that could explain the situation.

With some astonishment in his heart,

He Song’s attention returned to the Golden Elixir Nucleus.

However,

The moment He Song’s attention shifted back to the Golden Elixir Nucleus, his expression changed slightly.

The Golden Elixir Nucleus, which had become dazzlingly golden and shimmering under the constant hammering of his divine sense, had returned to its ordinary state at this moment, and it seemed as if it was on the verge of being eroded by the surrounding mana.

Seeing this, He Song moved his thoughts, and another Golden Congealing Elixir Pill was swallowed by him.

Once the medicinal power of the second Golden Congealing Elixir Pill rapidly enveloped the nearly eroded Golden Elixir Nucleus and replenished the energy within it,

He Song finally let out a sigh of relief, and the answer to his previous speculation also became clear in his heart.

It seemed that:

Perhaps it was because his divine sense was too strong that during the process of refining the Golden Elixir Nucleus, the already fragile Golden Elixir Nucleus was subjected to immense pressure.

Under such tremendous pressure, the Golden Elixir Nucleus would become dazzling and shimmering.

And when he stopped refining the Golden Elixir Nucleus, it would naturally return to its original state.

However, the large amount of energy consumed in-between required a new Golden Congealing Elixir Pill to replenish it.

Fortunately, He Song had five Golden Congealing Elixir Pills with him and didn’t risk failing in breaking through to the Golden Elixir Realm.

But if it were another Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator, they might have already lost everything due to this misstep.

Not everyone had as many Golden Congealing Elixir Pills as He Song.

Nor did everyone possess He Song’s frightening insight, which allowed him to quickly identify the cause of the problem when things went slightly awry.

At this thought,

A trace of helplessness arose in He Song’s heart.

He had never thought that:

His stronger-than-average divine sense would one day become an obstacle in his breakthrough to the Golden Elixir Realm.

At the same time, this made He Song realize:

It seemed that he couldn’t always rely on brute force in the future.

Sometimes, using a clever approach might be a better way to solve problems.

With various thoughts flashing through his mind, He Song could feel that the energy of the Golden Elixir Nucleus within his Elixir Field had been somewhat replenished.

Moreover, as more mana was converted into the Golden Elixir Nucleus and the strength of the Golden Elixir Nucleus changed with time, he quickly manipulated his divine sense again to resume the refining process for the Golden Elixir Nucleus.
