Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 641: Chapter 335: Advancement to Ninth-Layer Golden Core, Condensing Substitute Death Talisman_2

One could say it is now weaker than ever before.

Of course, more importantly, it found that staying in the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm, its origin energy seemed to be able to recover bit by bit, even if the speed of recovery wasn’t very fast.

But at least compared to other places, the speed of recovery in the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm was much faster.

For various reasons, it ended up staying in the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm.

”Damn humans, how did they manage to sign a contract with me?”

Little Kunpeng Ming was simply baffled.

Under normal circumstances, a tiny human shouldn’t be eligible to sign a contract with a True Spirit, yet the other party actually did it, and the contract was even compulsory, with no way for it to break free.

Moreover, its parents were nowhere to be found, their fate unknown.

It couldn’t find any True Spirit to help it.

”Forget it, I’ll just stay here for now.”

”Though the contract was signed, humans are ultimately a short-lived race.”

”Their lifespan is simply not much.”

”Perhaps by the time I take a nap, this human will have exhausted his lifespan and died.”

”Thinking of it this way, the contract isn’t such a big deal after all.”

Little Kunpeng Ming also thought about the various information on humans. Although this race was powerful, they were basically short-lived, their lifespan startlingly short.

According to what its parents said, humans seemed to change every few rounds by the time it took a nap.

Even human dynasties had undergone countless changes.

Even if it signed a contract with the other party, it didn’t matter, as the other party might just die of old age after a nap.

In this way, the contract would soon be easily resolved.

Thinking of this, it immediately felt at ease, lying in the void, and began to snore in a deep sleep.

...

At this time, in the inner world of the Exquisite Tower, in a quiet chamber.

Jiang Fan sat cross-legged on the ground, operating the Mixed Element Talisman Scripture.

The surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi surged into his body, forming a huge spiritual energy vortex.

It was as if a whale devouring and a silkworm consuming.

Fortunately, there was a Tier Five Spirit Vein here, fully able to meet his cultivation needs.

If it were an ordinary Tier Three Spirit Vein, it would likely be unable to inhale and exhale so much Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

After a large amount of Spiritual Qi entered his body, it all transformed into Primordial Spiritual Power.

”Finally cultivated to the Golden Core Eighth-Layer Perfection.”

At this time, Jiang Fan opened his eyes, revealing a trace of a smile.

He had devotedly cultivated for a full year and finally opened seventy-two acupoints.

After all, opening acupoints required a certain amount of time, an unavoidable task.

If the speed of opening was too fast, it could damage the acupoints and harm potential.

Of course, his physique was incomparably robust, so it naturally wouldn’t be easily harmed, which is why his cultivation was so rapid.

Meanwhile, all seventy-two of his acupoints contained a large amount of Primordial Spiritual Power, reaching the Perfection Level, just a step away from breaking through to the Golden Core Ninth-Layer.

”It’s about time to break through.”

Jiang Fan took a deep breath. If it were an ordinary Golden Core Eighth-Layer cultivator, they might still need preparation time, even need the aid of elixirs to dare to break through.

Because for Golden Core Cultivators, every breakthrough is no small matter and requires full preparation.

But for him, it’s not a problem at all, just a matter of course.

Rumble~~

In an instant, he once again operated the Mixed Element Talisman Scripture, and the Primordial Golden Core in his elixir field and Sea of Qi began to rotate, drawing in the Primordial Spiritual Power within him, circulating one circulation after another.

After circulating a full one hundred and eight circulations, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit had reached their peak, with the vast Primordial Spiritual Power continuously flowing within him, like a mighty river rushing forward.

Vaguely, it seemed to resonate with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, countless spiritual energy trembling, gathering together to form a huge Soaring Snake, floating above, exuding a terrifying divine might.

This was as if he had obtained the protection of the Divine Beast Soaring Snake.

Bang!

The next second, Jiang Fan’s body shook, and the vast Primordial Spiritual Power inside him launched an assault towards the bottleneck of the Golden Core Ninth-Layer, like floodwaters pounding against a dam.

With just one impact, the bottleneck of the Golden Core Ninth-Layer shattered without any resistance.

A large amount of Primordial Spiritual Power flowed towards the new acupoints.

Golden Core Ninth-Layer!

Without a doubt, Jiang Fan had finally elevated his cultivation to the Golden Core Ninth-Layer Realm, which is also the last stage of the Golden Core Realm.

If he could cultivate to the Golden Core Ninth-Layer Perfection, then he could begin Nascent Soul Formation.

”Finally advanced to the Golden Core Ninth-Layer.”

Jiang Fan smiled slightly, feeling quite pleased within.

Although he thought it was a matter of course to step into the Golden Core Ninth-Layer, it was still delightful when it truly happened. After all, expectation is expectation, and realization is realization; they are two different matters.

Furthermore, this realm is simply a dream for ordinary Golden Core cultivators.

Generally speaking, reaching the Golden Core Ninth-Layer usually meant being over four hundred years old, nearly the end of one’s lifespan.

Even genius-level cultivators needed to cultivate painstakingly for two to three hundred years.

But now, he wasn’t even a hundred years old, already cultivating to the Golden Core Ninth-Layer.

Such an occurrence, few might believe if told.

Of course, he wouldn’t foolishly say it; it would only make him a target and serve no purpose.

”Not bad.”

Jiang Fan sensed the changes within himself, his Primordial Spiritual Power increased by half compared to before, and the strength of his Spiritual Sense also improved considerably.

However, since his Spiritual Sense had already reached the First-Layer Divinity Transformation, the improvement wasn’t that vast. The next substantial evolution might only occur upon advancing to a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

But even so, this degree of progress was decent.

”Next is to engrave the new Life Talisman.”

Jiang Fan showed a glint in his eyes.

In fact, he had long decided on his new Life Talisman, which was the Substitute Death Talisman.

This is an extremely special talisman, with only one function, to substitute for the cultivator’s death.

Or to withstand a fatal blow for the cultivator.

Once possessing the Substitute Death Talisman, it would be equivalent to having a second life.

Thus, one can imagine how precious this talisman is.

Even the Substitute Death Talisman could be refined by him for his Dao Companion and many cultivators in the Primordial Talisman Sect to use.

In this way, the people around him could also have a second life, even several lives.

For Jiang Fan at present, the Substitute Death Talisman is of paramount importance.

Though his defenses were already quite decent, he wouldn’t mind adding another layer of armor.

Rumble~~

In an instant, Jiang Fan entered a meditative state, beginning to comprehend the mysteries of the Substitute Death Talisman.

After all, the Substitute Death Talisman is a profoundly mystical talisman.

Under normal circumstances, only a Nascent Soul cultivator might begin to comprehend it.

Almost no one at the Golden Core Level would attempt comprehension.

Because for Golden Core cultivators, there is simply no need to waste so much time understanding such a talisman, as each has limited lifespan.

If one wastes large amounts of lifespan here, they might run out of lifespan without even breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

So forcing oneself to comprehend highly difficult talismans is pure folly for a Low-Tier Cultivator.

Of course, Jiang Fan was an exception.

By consuming a large amount of Luck Points, he could rapidly comprehend the Substitute Death Talisman.

This naturally eliminates the drawback of wasting substantial time.

”Planning to engrave a Substitute Death Talisman?”

”This kid is truly cautious.”

”Even though he has already grown so powerful, he still plans to add more layers.”

At this time, the Primordial Talisman Pen also sensed Jiang Fan’s cultivation situation and immediately felt quite moved.

It didn’t expect Jiang Fan would actually plan to engrave a Substitute Death Talisman.

Originally, it thought this kid might engrave an attack-type talisman.

It seems this guy is overly cautious.

”Old man, you understand nothing.”

”The master is merely being foresightful.”

”Even the most talented cannot ensure they won’t encounter calamity, leading to death.”

”But with multiple layers of defense, even in unfortunate situations, faced with unprecedented enemies, survival remains possible.”

”This is the true path of wisdom.”

”Throughout history, countless geniuses have perished due to arrogance.”

The Ten Thousand Transformations Pill Furnace disdainfully remarked.

”Indeed, if those disciples of the Primordial Talisman Sect back then had been so cautious, perhaps so many would not have perished.”

”The Primordial Talisman Sect might not face the threat of destruction either.”

The Primordial Talisman Pen sighed deeply.

After experiencing so much influence over the years, it felt it had been assimilated by Jiang Fan, even thinking he was right—as safe as it might seem, never lose caution.

Otherwise, doom is not far away.
