Cultivation Starting from Full Talent-Chapter 182 - 180 Five-colored Deer

Chapter 182 -180 Five-colored Deer

“Boom~~~”

With a loud bang, Ning Daoran broke through the air, like a peal of thunder!

The direction he was heading was exactly where two female cultivators from the Star Moon Pavilion who had been secretly observing his Core Formation for three months were.

“How is it her again?”

He spotted the tall female cultivator from the Star Moon Pavilion in a glance.

In an instant, the terrifying spiritual pressure at the Golden Core Stage swept over them like a blanket.

“Sister, this is bad, we’ve angered this senior…”

The younger female cultivator hadn’t finished speaking before she fainted under the spiritual pressure.

“You…”

The elder sister in the Late-stage Foundation Establishment was astounded, staring dumbfounded at Ning Daoran, feeling that she had seen this person somewhere before.

“Sister, look over there!”

Ning Daoran suddenly pointed into the distance.

“Ah?”

Liu Xingyu turned her head to look, but in the blink of an eye, she felt a sense of déjà vu, as if she had been tricked again.

Why was there a “again”?

“Smack!”

After a light sound, Liu Xingyu was once again knocked out by a gentle chop of Ning Daoran’s hand.

He then methodically used the Soul Searching Technique to erase her memories of spying on the Core Formation, and didn’t let her junior sister off either, grabbing her and erasing her related memories as well.

He took out a paperfolk and threw it out, transforming it with a “poof” into a Second-class Paperfolk.

“Take them away from this place, and make sure they’re safe.”

“Yes!”

The Second-class Paperfolk took one under each arm and turned into a tunneling light and fled.

…

“Yo-ho~~~”

Not far away, Big Stupid Deer came galloping, emitting a high-pitched and joyful bellow.

“Hahaha, Old Lu, I’ve made it!”

Ning Daoran also dashed over in a few strides and wrapped his arms around the deer’s head.

Only at this moment did he truly revel in the ecstasy of having formed his Core!

“Old Lu, next it’s your turn to form your Core.”

Ning Daoran raised his eyebrow slightly, “Have you really decided to go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Valley for training? I’ve heard that there are many powerful demon beasts in the Second-stage Late-stage there, and even Third-tier Demon Beasts lurking around. Are you sure you can handle them?”

“Ao-ao~~~”

Big Stupid Deer bellowed, indicating that it wasn’t a big problem, treating those Second-stage Late-stage demon beasts as if they were nothing.

“Alright, then off to the Ten Thousand Beasts Valley.”

Ning Daoran nodded gently, “But before you enter the valley for training, I need to go into seclusion for a month.”

Big Stupid Deer nodded in agreement.

…

Several days later.

On the outskirts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Valley.

Inside a cave, a Class A Paperfolk that looked just like Ning Daoran was sitting cross-legged.

Inside the vine ball at his waist, the real Ning Daoran began artifact refining.

Beside him, twelve golden bamboo rods were sprawled across the ground.

Golden Silk Bamboo, ranked third among the Ten Great Spirit Bamboo, had just reached ten thousand years.

At the moment it reached ten thousand years, the gold patterns on the bamboo joint deepened significantly.

Ning Daoran had been waiting for this moment for too long. Without refining the Golden Silk Sword, the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation wouldn’t be truly complete.

‘Let’s begin!’

He took a deep breath and spat a mouthful of Samadhi True Fire towards the Chi Long Ding.

At this moment, this breath of Samadhi True Fire, stemmed from the Flawless Golden Core inside his body and derived from Dan Fire, was naturally far purer than the Samadhi True Fire that could be produced at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Then, he gently lifted his hand, suspending the twelve Golden Silk Bamboo rods in the air, and immediately, several breaths of Samadhi True Fire were spat out, marking the start of the refining process.

After a full ten days.

The Golden Silk Bamboo finally began to soften. The first to melt was the golden patterns on the bamboo joints, which were the true essence of the Golden Silk Bamboo, containing a large amount of Gold Attribute melting liquid.

Before long, the bamboo joints one by one began to melt, and the golden melt liquid inside the Chi Long Ding took up about half the capacity of the treasure tripod.

Ning Daoran was delighted.

Such a quantity of Golden Silk Melt Liquid was enough to refine twenty-four Flying Swords!

Moreover, if this melt liquid were to be exposed outside, even the Sects of the Ten Great Immortal Sects would fight over it!

This wasn’t something one could buy with Flower Spiritual Stones.

He proceeded cautiously, slowly adding the other ingredients necessary for refining — various essences of gold and silver were added according to the formula, some to increase the Flying Sword’s flexibility, others to improve its hardness.

In the blink of an eye, another ten days passed.

Inside the Chi Long Ding, the purification and refining of the Golden Silk Melt Liquid had finished.

He gently raised his hand, starting to extract the essence from the green bamboo joints that were about to be burnt, and instantly streams of Wood Attribute extended out, turning into green particles.

Then, he prepared for the final stage of refining.

Ning Daoran closed his eyes, and with his powerful Golden Core Divine Sense, he controlled the melt liquid in the Chi Long Ding, rapidly condensing it into flying swords in the air. Then, he added the Wood Attribute essence particles, branding shallow green lines near the handles of the swords.

Ten days later.

The refining was finally complete.

“Swish!”

Accompanied by a mere thought from Ning Daoran, streaks of golden light flew out from within him, each a fully refined Golden Silk Sword.

These swords exuded a wisp of golden essence qi around them.

Geng Metal Essence!

The reason why the swords made from Ten-thousand-year-old Golden Silk Bamboo were so powerful was that once the bamboo reached ten thousand years, it could give birth to the legendary Geng Metal Essence. And the flying swords refined with this essence had an unmatched sharpness far beyond that of ordinary treasures!

According to the records, Golden Silk Swords could even break through defensive magical treasures!

At this moment, the twenty-four Golden Silk Swords, each one a third-tier top-grade magical treasure!

Thus, the full set of twenty-four Golden Silk Swords together actually surpassed the power of magical treasures and had reached the legendary level of a “Spiritual Treasure.”

If coupled with the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation and the Jianjia Sword Technique, perhaps slaying a Golden Core would be as easy as slicing through melons and vegetables.

‘Bloody hell…’

Ning Daoran looked at the swords flying about, suddenly feeling like he held a treasure capable of altering the heavens and the earth in his grasp.

With a gentle flick of his sleeve, the Golden Silk Swords swiftly transformed into white light and re-entered his body.

He had already decided to make the Golden Silk Swords his lifebound magical treasure and to nourish them with his own Primordial Qi. Thus, these swords, like the Lingxiao Mist Dream Bracelet, used his flesh and blood as their containers.

“Aooo aooo~~”

Beside him, Big Stupid Deer watched with a look of awe and then asked when they would go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Valley.

Ning Daoran slapped his forehead, “Old Lu, my apologies, we have to delay for another month or so. I forgot that the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation needs upgrading too. Just wait a little longer.”

Big Stupid Deer nodded repeatedly.

Thus, Ning Daoran gathered all the bamboo leaves from the twelve stalks of Golden Silk Bamboo.

These leaves, like the bamboo joints, contained strong Wood and Metal attributes essence qi. Although not as rare as the joints, they could be used as materials for upgrading the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation.

Half a month later, the upgrade of the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation was completed.

Ning Daoran slapped his Storage Bag, and twenty-four Array Flags along with twenty-four Array Plates flew out one by one. At this point, the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation had become a third-tier lower grade killing array!

It could be said that at this time, Ning Daoran not only possessed an unblemished Golden Core but also had a set of third-tier Golden Silk Swords and a third-tier lower grade Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Array.

His combat strength had reached the current peak!

Now, finally, it was time to head to the Ten Thousand Beasts Valley and take Big Stupid Deer for some tough cultivation!

…

The next day, Ten Thousand Beasts Valley.

Ning Daoran rode the wind in the sky, his green robe fluttering, as his eyes surveyed the valley below.

As a Golden Core Cultivator, he was too lazy to hide his power. Even if a Golden Core Stage Demon Beast came, he would simply kill it. Why bother with the fuss?

In the valley.

White Deer let out a long shriek, battling fiercely with a group of Second-stage Late-stage Demon Beasts.

This was its trial by combat, its path to verification. Although Big Stupid Deer was unique in many ways, it still belonged to the Demon Clan. If it formed a core, it would be forming a Demon Core. Therefore, it needed to refine its Daoist Heart with the combat against Demon Beasts.

Ning Daoran said nothing, merely standing in the sky.

Months later.

Big Stupid Deer was covered in wounds but still fought relentlessly.

Ning Daoran stood in the air and, though silent, every time Old Lu faced a life-or-death crisis, a sword would fly out from the flesh and point its tip below, ready to assist.

Now, under Ning Daoran’s Divine Sense, though Big Stupid Deer was bruised and bleak, there emerged within it an ancestral aura—a great sign. In fact, the reason for coming to the Ten Thousand Beasts Valley to toughen up was exactly for this opportunity.

Before long, Big Stupid Deer felt its cultivation was complete.

“Return to the Shattered Wilderness, ready for Core Formation!”

“Aooo aooo aooo~~~”

…

Shattered Wilderness, vast skies and lands.

Ning Daoran handed a Dust-falling Pill to Big Stupid Deer, saying, “Rest assured with your Core Formation. I’ll protect. Even if the King of Heaven himself comes, he won’t disturb your Core Formation. Go ahead with ease!”

“Aooo aooo~~”

Big Stupid Deer rubbed against his shoulder and then trotted off with the pill to the spot where Ning Daoran had undergone his Core Formation.

Soon after, a surge of essence qi exploded over the plains.

Big Stupid Deer stood firmly on the ground, enveloped by an aura of sanctity that coursed through its body, the light spreading from its heart to illuminate every antler.

Above, the sky flashed with five colors, and ancient seals flickered alternately among the clouds.

An immense aura swirled as White Deer’s Core Formation was markedly different from Ning Daoran’s.

‘Holy shit…’

Ning Daoran sat on a piece of hillside, frowning, “Old Lu has quite an extraordinary Core Formation spectacle. Could it be… my second brother is invincible under the heavens?!”

“Boom…”

From the sky, a formidable presence descended.

It was Heavenly Tribulation!

‘Motherf*****…’

Ning Daoran frowned. Were Golden Core Thunder Tribulations so cheap these days? Sold wholesale?

However, this also confirmed his long-held belief that Big Stupid Deer’s bloodline was indeed extraordinary. Although it might look a bit stupid, its lineage could be very strong—certainly not something that a dolt like Little Blackie could compare to!

In the wind, Big Stupid Deer, pure white, boldly rose upwards as if to challenge the heavens, bathed in thunder and lightning, fearless even when battered to a pulp.

‘Bloody hell…’

Ning Daoran admired silently.

In the sky, a total of four lightning bolts came down, one more than what Ning Daoran had faced.

After the tribulation, Big Stupid Deer was covered in wounds, with hardly any untouched flesh. But as the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi nourished it back, its body visibly healed at an observable rate.

The newly grown fur was still spotless white, but now there were speckled spots, like those on a sika deer, yet those spots resembled five-petaled flowers, each petal with a distinct color representing the five elements Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth—golden, blue, black, red, and yellow.

Ning Daoran was utterly astonished!

Could it be…

A Five-colored Deer?
