Chapter 467: Chapter 415: Cultivating the Golden Core Dao?

Translator: 549690339

“Golden Core Dao, I hadn’t expected that this encounter would allow me a glimpse of the possible Golden Core Dao.” A smile appeared on Pei Xuanjing’s face, as he hadn’t expected such a gain from this experience.

Indeed, during Pei Xuanjing’s clash with the Howling Moon Wolf King, he had inadvertently caught a glimpse of the profound intricacy of the Golden Core Dao due to fortunate coincidences.

The Golden Core Dao is the most fundamental and superior cultivation method in the Taoist School, but it is also the most secretive one, not to be easily revealed.

Even among the various sects of the Taoist School, the cultivation methods of the Golden Core Dao are unique to each, and no one can glimpse another’s practice of the Golden Core Dao.

Furthermore, with the departure of the ancient forces, the remaining powers have almost completely lost this cultivation method. Pei Xuanjing had tried to probe it, only to reap scant rewards and fragmentary information.

But Pei Xuanjing has memories of his previous life and a rudimentary understanding of the Golden Core Dao. Coupled with the fragmentary information and the research from some of the Taoist School’s classics and skills, he has roughly summarized some points.

“The Golden Core is the fusion of the essence, qi, and spirit into an inner alchemy, which undergoes constant tempering, resulting in a change endowed with indestructible golden properties and an unyielding nature, only then can it be referred to as the Golden Core,” Pei Xuanjing recalled his understanding of the Golden Core.

Although he cultivates the three ways of Refining Essence, Refining Qi, and Refining Spirit, he had once thought of combining the three to cultivate inner alchemy and follow the most orthodox Golden Core Dao of the Taoist School.

But later, with the birth of the Yin Spirit, the power of the three methods became different, making him believe that he could no longer tread this path, so he temporarily put it aside.

However, coincidentally this time, his incarnation is only at the Spirit Realm Third Level, the Way of Essence Refinement is at the Spirit Realm Third Level, the Path of Qi Refinement is at the Spirit Realm Third Level, and the way of Refining Spirit is at the Spirit Realm Second Layer. The gap between these three aspects narrowed considerably compared to his true body.

Just at the moment when Pei Xuanjing finally killed the Howling Moon Gray Wolf, he had burned and sublimated all his essence, qi, and spirit to the extreme state. Due to the suppression of Heaven and Earth in that situation, the power of his three essence, qi, and spirit, no matter what, the strongest state had a limit and the difference was negligible.

Therefore, when he launched the Shenxiao Heavenly Will Sword, the essence, qi, and spirit rotated and merged somewhat at that moment, showing signs and possibilities of fusion, but did not ultimately succeed due to a slight shortfall in the Yin Spirit power.

Even without success, it undoubtedly gave Pei Xuanjing a hint that his true body’s strength cannot condense the Golden Core due to cultivation of three ways, but if the strength of the three methods is balanced, it may be feasible.

“Moreover, I can choose to attempt using only a portion of my essence, qi, and spirit force, and let my incarnation take the risks. Even if it fails, the loss won’t be significant, but if it succeeds, the gains will be tremendous,” thought Pei Xuanjing.

The Golden Core, although named as a pill, is not an actual inner alchemy condensed within the body, but rather a representation of the perfect integration of essence, qi, and spirit.

If he can successfully cultivate the Golden Core Dao, he might reach another realm: When the essence, qi, and spirit merge, they transform into the indestructible Golden Core; when they separate, each functions independently and does not interfere with the others.

Pei Xuanjing didn’t know if anyone else had ever attempted this, but for him, without much guidance from predecessors, he could only slowly explore and proceed in this manner.

While Pei Xuanjing was deep in thought, drawing conclusions from this encounter, the great battle outside the border was nearing its end.

Firstly, the high-end battle – after Pei Xuanjing killed the Demon Race’s strongest Wolf King, Howling Moon Gray Wolf, with one of his incarnations, the remaining Spirit Realm Great Demons were also slain. With the help of Mr. Wu, none of those Great Demons escaped, all were kept behind, and none of the human race’s experts were lost. Zhao Baiyang and Xue Wuheng were the most severely injured.

The debilitating injuries they sustained were due to their decision to battle Spirit Realm Third Level Great Demons at the Spirit Realm Second Layer, inspired by Pei Xuanjing’s last moment.

Of course, the significant injuries showcased their strength and they benefitted greatly from the encounters.

After the battle, heeding Pei Xuanjing’s message, Daoist Qingxu and the old celestial master dispatched people to bring the corpse of the Howling Moon Gray Wolf to Tiandu, understanding it could be beneficial for the Divine Dynasty Plan.

The Spirit Realm’s forces had a comprehensive victory, but the large army led by Wang Boan experienced a different situation.

The army suffered casualties in the battle. Despite Wang Boan’s commanding, they faced waves of demonic beasts. The human soldiers and martial artists also suffered significant losses.

Especially when the Howling Moon Gray Wolf appeared, numerous demonic beasts went mad and charged fearlessly, causing considerable casualties among human soldiers and martial artists.

If it weren’t for Pei Xuanjing killing the Howling Moon Gray Wolf, the losses would have been much greater…

Of course, despite the heavy price, the gains were equally promising. This expedition nearly eradicated the demonic beasts in thousands of miles of grasslands, making the beasts nurtured by the Great Demons after their arrival become resources for the human martial artists to cultivate.

Moreover, with the reawakening of Heaven and Earth, countless rare treasures emerged. Originally, many rare treasures were growing in the forest outside the border that many people seldom saw, but now there were countless more.

At this moment, for all martial artists, they have more resources for cultivation, and their future growth paths are broader.

For ordinary martial artists, their harvest was significant, but compared to those great forces, the gap was much wider.

For these great forces, taking possession of these thousands of miles of fertile grasslands according to the agreement on Shenxiao Mountain, they are qualified to open up their domain. This will undoubtedly become a base for various forces, continuously providing resources and enhancing their foundation.

Especially for those forces who have reached their expansion limits in the Divine Continent, it undoubtedly opens up a new world.

Of course, the greatest gainers from this expedition should be the Great Ming Empire and those like Pei Xuanjing who represent the Taoist School.

When these millions of miles of fertile land become part of the Great Ming’s territory, it will undoubtedly lead to a significant increase in the national fortune of the Great Ming.

This will be of inestimable help for their Divine Dynasty Plan on earth and will increase the chances of the plan’s success by several folds.
