Chapter 1167: Chapter 455: Core Formation!

"Bead Curtain Lock"

Great Technique of Pill Formation Secret Art!

Originates from Luo Yun Sect, the cultivation is extremely difficult, and is accompanied by unimaginable pain.

Luo Chen had obtained it nearly thirty years ago.

Day and night he studied it, never letting go of the scroll.

Every single word was already etched into the depths of his mind.

Every sentence was continuously scrutinized and verified by him.

Furthermore, he had the cultivation insights from the exchange with Luo Yun Sect to assist him.

Besides this, he even spent a considerable amount of resources helping Chu Kui cultivate this technique, allowing him to pioneer and practice it ahead of time.

It can be said that Luo Chen values this secret technique far more than the other three lesser techniques.

Even "Wind-Calming Wave", he only used it as an auxiliary technique.

Even the several Nether Origin Pills in his storage bag were just backup resources for core formation.

Only the Great Technique offers the highest chance of Pill Formation!

The fact that Chu Kui nearly succeeded in forming the core is evidence enough.

It must be known that Chu Kui had only cultivated the "Bead Curtain Lock" to the Minor Accomplishment Realm.

The completion stage of Bead Curtain Lock is not about condensing thirty-six spirit beads but three hundred and sixty-five, achieving the count of the celestial stars!

Now, Chu Kui had already validated the feasibility of this secret technique.

Luo Chen’s preparations had reached the utmost, and it was time to start cultivating.

The first step was to segment and separate the divine soul.

Luo Chen closed his eyes, his consciousness diving deep into his sea of consciousness.

There, as if there was a golden ocean, subtly rippling.

This was the Sea of Consciousness!

In the depths of the Sea of Consciousness, a blue sphere stood still, radiating a gentle aura.

Entering the Sea of Consciousness, it becomes a wave.

Leaving the body, it becomes spirit consciousness.

As Luo Chen’s spirit consciousness returned to the Sea of Consciousness, vast waves rolled toward the sphere.

When they reached the vicinity of the sphere, they gradually slowed down.

Luo Chen watched his own divine soul as if facing a piece of meat, seeking the grain where he should cut.

After a long time, Luo Chen’s mind moved, and using the method from "Bead Curtain Lock", he turned his spirit consciousness into a knife, gently slicing at a corner of the light sphere.

"Hmm..."

A muffled grunt involuntarily escaped from Luo Chen’s mouth.

Painful!

But not unbearable.

However, Luo Chen found that his knife was not sharp enough.

The speed of cutting the main soul was particularly slow.

The feeling was like using a blunt knife to cut through flesh.

Continuous muffled grunts came from Luo Chen, with beads of sweat constantly seeping from his forehead.

Eventually, the sounds from his mouth were nearly growls.

But even so, Luo Chen did not stop this action.

If he didn’t complete this step, let alone forming the core, even consolidating spirit beads would be impossible.

In that self-inflicted agony of cutting with a blunt knife, Luo Chen’s will was like steel, his spirit consciousness like a knife, unwaveringly slicing at the corner of the sphere.

One day, two days...

In a daze, it seemed like many, many years had passed.

But when Luo Chen opened his eyes, he clearly knew that only nine days had passed.

"Huff, huff, huff..."

In the cultivation room, Luo Chen was breathing heavily.

His entire body was soaked, as if he had just been pulled out of water.

For a cultivator, this was an unimaginable situation.

After the Changing Meridian, the body of a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator should not be inferior to a Physical Cultivator in the Minor Accomplishment Realm.

Moreover, Luo Chen’s physique was not just a simple completion of the First Realm Body Refinement, but comparable to a Third Order physique of a Primordial Desolate Beast!

Such a realm has reached the peak in control over the body, and it’s hardly easy to sweat.

So, one can imagine the extent of the pain.

However, the outcome was gratifying.

Feeling a single strand of azure light wandering alone in the Sea of Consciousness, Luo Chen felt completely relaxed.

"Chu Kui failed seven times when he first completed the segmentation of the main soul, and only barely succeeded on the eighth attempt."

"And I, although it took a bit longer, succeeded on the first attempt!"

"Truly a cause for celebration!"

With such a gap, Luo Chen surmised it was probably because his overall qualities were stronger than Chu Kui’s.

His current Divine Soul Endowment had already surpassed Chu Kui, not to mention when Chu Kui was merely at the Ninth Level Foundation Establishment and had just begun to cultivate "Bead Curtain Lock."

The other challenge was the tolerance for pain.

Since the Qi Refinement Stage, he had been cultivating "Ming God’s Divine Cleanse", from the initial spirit power stimulating acupoints to later Evil Qi Body Refinement, and even Thunder Body Refinement.

It could be said that, below the Nascent Soul, Luo Chen was confident he was the most pain-tolerant.

The most crucial part!

Luo Chen had cultivated "Wind-Calming Wave."

He had practiced this technique for three years, and had already reached the Minor Accomplishment Realm.

Luo Chen didn’t know about other effects, but his willpower had indeed improved significantly.

Externally, facing Golden Core Ascendant Masters like Hao Ranzi and Feng Yue, he became increasingly composed.

Internally, he was even more calm, able to endure even with a blunt knife, without changing his initial intent.

In one word, it would be like Mount Taishan collapsing before him without changing his expression, remaining unshaken amidst sudden tumult.

"And there’s one more point I previously overlooked."

"When proficiency in ’Ming God’s Divine Cleanse’ reached Completion, it didn’t produce any divine soul attack or defense effects, but added a skill of multitasking."

"That multitasking, and this segmentation of the divine soul, indeed have a lot in common!"

These factors together allowed Luo Chen to "easily" complete the first step.

If Chu Kui were to evaluate personally, he probably would use two words to describe it!

Foundation!

Luo Chen’s foundation was simply too profound.

Now, it was just a simple matter of reaping the benefits from his deep cultivation of a secret technique.
