Chapter 323: Chapter 264: Core Formation Middle Stage (Please Subscribe)

Several days later.

Galaxy Island.

Fang Xing came to a farm that had already been built and casually scattered some seeds from the Cultivation World.

"Little Blue... I’ll leave the security of this farm to you from now on. I’ll purchase drones and agricultural robots for you to command... Should there be any intrusion, you can directly destroy all the fruits of our labor."

Fang Xing gave the order.

In fact, he didn’t really care about these cultivated fields.

It was just a perfunctory effort, to have a source to cite in his paper.

Spirit Grass transplanted from the Cultivation World, without Spiritual Energy, is basically going to die!

For him to want them barely alive, he still needed to sprinkle some Spirit Stone shards from time to time.

These were all exclusive techniques, guaranteed to trap any would-be thieves with blood on their hands.

’Even if the experiment is successful, the real source of raw materials must definitely be located in the Cultivation World... to avoid any vulnerabilities. This place is just a facade.’

After finishing these tasks, Fang Xing returned to the villa and began his daily cultivation.

His Martial Arts Will was like a fierce sun, constantly clearing the fog inside his Sea of Consciousness.

A point of light emerged, then led to another point to appear, faint and indistinct...

Inside the Sea of Consciousness, there were already five such points, barely resembling the Big Dipper.

[Martial Arts Will Secret Pattern: 5/100 (Beginner)]

He glanced at the attribute bar, quite satisfied with the progress.

"It looks like my Martial Arts Will is too strong, and the foundation too solid... After entering the Starry Sky Map, the progress is indeed swift..."

"However, after perfecting the Starry Sky Map, trying to comprehend the entrance to the second ’Exotic Beast Map’ is another huge barrier!"

"Maybe, even some Martial Saints are stuck at this step..."

Fang Xing stood up and entered the Holographic Virtual Cabin to play games.

Thanks to the effort of the Federation Holographic Universe Company, communication between star systems had become incredibly convenient, and playing online games with people from different planets had become a fairly common affair.

Previously, just the cost of quantum communication could bankrupt someone.

Fang Xing chose a recently popular game—’Ancient Ape Transmission’, where players mainly role-play as various Exotic Beasts, learn Martial Arts, and adventure in the world of Myriad Beasts.

It’s said that the game’s major backer is a Martial Arts faction that excels in Beast Form Fist, which has done a lot of promotions.

Naturally, Fang Xing followed the trend and chose a White Ape. After entering the game, he saw a two-meter-tall White Ape rise on its legs and start swinging swiftly through the treetops in the forest.

It wasn’t long before he arrived at a simple mountain village.

Various ox-headed and horse-faced beings, tiger-headed men... were coming and going in the village, making it very bustling.

"As expected, all sorts of clothed beasts..."

Fang Xing mumbled to himself, entered the village, and looked at a wall covered in various guild recruitments, PK, and dungeon notices.

His eyes flickered as he saw an announcement:

[’Dragon Pond and Tiger Cave’ guild constantly requires Horse Grass, Xuan Yang Iron, Gale Pearl...]

A very ordinary announcement, appearing no different from the others.

But Fang Xing knew that this was a way for the disciples of certain sects to pass information to him.

Long before leaving Blue Star, he had made preparations, arranging for his Cultivation Avatar to set up regular weekly information summits with these disciples—embedding the information in public documents in coded form, covering dozens of the hottest games at the moment.

And of course, he would never contact them; it was a one-way exposure of information from them.

This was certainly unfair to those disciples, but who let him be the Sect Leader!

In order to fulfill his undercover mission, he needed to shift the risk to the subordinates and then sell them out!

’Hmm... They’re all working quite diligently; a few of them are spies from the Federation’s intelligence department... The information is quite timely.’

Fang Xing enjoyed himself, like a teenager addicted to the internet.

Days later, when he exited the Virtual Cabin, he had gained a roughly thorough understanding of what had recently happened within the Federation.

"In recent times, the number of Imaginary Space attacks has increased quite a bit..."

"It’s suspected to be related to the sect where Red Heart 3 is from... The followers who descend are mostly pure spiritual entities or dream creatures..."

"Dream Deities, huh?"

Fang Xing knew that he could directly grasp ’Dream Deities’ as the key due to his acquisition of the sect leader’s knowledge of Evil God Studies.

It might take some time for the Federation to trace this point.

But...

"Such attacks are meaningless... By now, the Federation should hold a certain advantage on the Imaginary Space Battlefield... These scattered breakthroughs require sacrificing more on the battlefield... And besides incensing the Federation, they don’t serve much purpose."

"The Federation has hunted Dominators before... This Dream Deities, an Outer Realm Evil God, is not very strong. Once targeted by the Federation..."

Fang Xing had a vague feeling that within the Federation now, there was an air of restlessness.

Many citizens believed that since even the Moon God itself could be slain, the Federation could adopt a much more aggressive policy towards Outer Realm Evil Gods.

There had been calls for retaliation from many Martial Combat Faction members after Blue Star was attacked!

The impact of this was gradually manifesting itself in all aspects of society.

’Red Heart 3... The Creator’s Church... The Dream Creator... The Dream Gods?!’

Fang Xing’s eyes suddenly widened, "Could it be that the so-called ’Dream Gods’... are related to the Dream Creator? Are they the Creator’s own children? That’s not right... According to Red Heart 3, the Creator gave birth to everything, and most of the Dominators are His children..."

"Now that several children have died, there’s no sign of Him waking in a fit..."

"Unless... these Dream Gods are not simple, not merely His own children..."

Fang Xing took a deep breath.

Even though he vaguely grasped the outline of this plan, he couldn’t possibly speak of it to the Federation.

Aside from the issue of where the information came from, for the Federation to accept this claim, they would first have to acknowledge the existence of the ’creator’.

He was able to determine all this only after seeing the Creation Tablet and acquiring the knowledge of Evil God Studies from the sect’s leader.

But at the Federation’s Academy of Sciences, the existence of the ’creator’ was still only a conjecture.

"I am of little significance, my words carry no weight... and speaking out would only invite trouble."

Fang Xing sighed, "It seems I need to establish a connection with the Nine Swords Academy as soon as possible..."

The best way to draw the attention of the Nine Swords Academy was through his doctoral thesis.

...

Cultivation World.

Yunzhou, Baihua Mountain.

Within the Cave Mansion.

Fang Xing sat cross-legged, his Divine Sense conducting Internal Vision into his dantian’s sea of Qi.

He saw a white-gold Golden Core voraciously absorbing Spiritual Energy from the Fourth Rank Spirit Vein; a tiny sword inside emitted a clear resonating hum.

Below the Golden Core, a ghostly infant with the Great Sun Mark on its forehead was also sitting cross-legged, likewise forming a mystic hand seal.

The originally wild Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi instantly turned incredibly docile, circulating within his body along the trajectory of the Great Freedom Mysterious Gold Sword Scripture, before transforming into solid Core Formation Level True Yuan and merging into the indestructible white-gold Golden Core.

Affected by this, the white-gold Sword Pill’s size inflated in an instant.

Within the quiet chamber.

Fang Xing opened his eyes, "Core Formation Middle Stage, is it?"

Under the combined effects of the Ten-thousand-year-old Stone Milk, Supreme Ganoderma Pills, and Fourth Rank Spiritual Energy, his cultivation progress was unbelievably rapid.

A common Core Formation Cultivator often requires decades of arduous seclusion to see any progress in their Cultivation.

Yet, in a very short time, Fang Xing advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching the peak mana of Early Core Formation.

Then, Fang Xing casually attempted to break through to the Core Formation Middle Stage.

The result left him somewhat speechless; the so-called bottleneck simply never appeared, and he broke through to the Core Formation Middle Stage as smoothly as usual.

All the bottleneck-breaking Elixirs he prepared, such as the Life-taking Barrier-breaking Pills, were rendered useless.

"Maybe it’s because I have a solid foundation, possess an Immortal Golden Core, and my Spirit Root is exceptional... Even in the Core Formation Stage, there are hardly any bottlenecks?"

"Besides, the Fourth Rank Spirit Vein also played a significant role... At least, the Spiritual Energy supply was completely sufficient for my breakthrough needs, eliminating the need for external absorption of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, which would cause visible phenomena..."

Having broken through to the Core Formation Middle Stage, Fang Xing reflected carefully, feeling his Golden Core True Essence mana had become more than twice as potent as before.

Apart from that, nourished by the Golden Core True Essence, his Divine Sense grew explosively, reaching an extreme range of about five miles.

If combined with the All Techniques ghostly infant, he could control an area within a radius of seventy to eighty miles.

He could faintly sense any mana fluctuations within a hundred miles.

"Lastly, the ’Rotten Iron Sword’ also underwent refinement, ascending to a Mid-grade Third Rank Magic Treasure... This was to be expected, given that its material quality sufficed; being Third Rank was an understatement."

"When I truly form my Nascent Soul, this sword will immediately ascend to a Spiritual Treasure, and by then its edge is sure to shock the entire Cultivation World!"

Fang Xing was quite satisfied, and he counted his stock of Elixirs, noticing his supply of Ganoderma Pills was running low.

"It’s about time, as I have been consuming Ganoderma Pills continuously and have developed some resistance to them, their effects are diminishing... Now is the time to try concocting the ’Five Clouds Pill’."

"The main ingredients for the Five Clouds Pill have almost been gathered within the Linglang Blessed Land, it is just some auxiliary materials that require collection..."

"As for the Mu Family now, it seems I can hardly command them."

"It looks like it’s time for Mu Wanlong to fully recover and come out of retirement..."

A light flashed in his hand, and the Green Sun Demon Lamp slowly emerged.

Within the lamp, the Green Sun Demon Fire and Soul-destroying Demon Flames that were previously entwined and devouring each other had completely vanished.

In their place was a dark green flame, the ’Soul-devouring Demon Fire’!

After years of cultivation, the two Fourth Rank Demon Flames had not just merely merged a bit but had completely fused at the Original Spark, becoming the ’Soul-devouring Demon Fire’!

"Such demon fire is especially proficient in burning Divine Souls, even Nascent Soul Cultivators dare not touch it... At the same time, it retains the Green Sun Demon Fire’s ability to melt metal and dissolve iron, making it an incredibly sharp tool even among Nascent Soul True Monarchs."

Fang Xing briefly experimented and was very pleased with the performance of the Soul-devouring Demon Fire.

He stepped out of his Cave Mansion and suddenly noticed a Sound Transmission Talisman bouncing around chaotically within the Array like a headless fly.

"Someone is actually seeking me out?"

Fang Xing was slightly surprised, flicked his finger, and a Sword Qi deflected the Sound Transmission Talisman back to him.

After listening to a few words, a playful expression surfaced on his face...
