Chapter 360: Chapter 329: Advancing to Nascent Soul (Part 2)_1
“Do you think I’m joking, senior, or do you think I won’t succeed?” Xu Mu asked.
“Both!”
“…”
So, he’s not optimistic about me at all!
Xu Mu was speechless.
However, he had his own convictions about his actions and did not feel discouraged by Lu Jingkong’s response.
“Whether it’s success or failure, it’s worth a try!”
“I would advise you not to try.” Lu Jingkong said. freёwebnoѵel.com
“Why?”
“Do you think forming a Nascent Soul is a joke! If you fail once, you’re dead! The normal elemental Nascent Souls are already difficult to condense, let alone an Ancestral Nascent Soul!”
“Has no one ever succeeded in forming it?”
“Of course, there have been. Otherwise how could there be records about Ancestral Nascent Souls? But generally, one only comes along every several hundred or thousand years, and they usually possess extreme fortunes and talents, just making it by chance”
“What kind of Nascent Soul did you form, senior?”
“Water elemental! In these waters, the majority of cultivators practice water elemental Martial Methods, followed by wooden element, then earth and metal elements. Fire element practitioners are the least, and there are even lesser for wind and thunder elements. However, there are occasionally some powerful cultivators who have thunder elements!”
“No one has formed an Ancestral Nascent Soul?”
“There is!”
“Who?”
“The old patriarch of the Sea Race and the rumored Sect Leader of the Cluster Stars Sect!”
Xu Mu initially thought that he might gain some experience, but he was completely speechless after hearing this..
No one knows whether the patriarch of the Sea Race is alive or not.
As for the Sect Leader of the Cluster Stars Sect, he had been a mystery and had not been seen by anybody for hundreds of years.
Moreover, even if he were lucky enough to meet these two, they may not necessarily impart their experiences to him. Besides, according to Lu Jingkong, their successful formation might have a significant element of luck. So even if they told him, he might not gain much experience.
It seemed he had to rely on himself now.
“Please tell me about the experience you had when you formed your Nascent Soul, senior.”
Lu Jingkong did not hide anything and told Xu Mu everything he knew.
For him, Xu Mu’s success in forming a Nascent Soul would only be beneficial and hold no harm.
Would he be harmed if Xu Mu’s cultivation became superior?
Given the hundreds of years that he had lived, if he wasn’t mentally prepared for such a possibility, he would really have lived in vain.
Since he agreed, then he must have his own plans.
He spent the next few days in seclusion and ten years passed in a blink.
One day, the sky over the sea drastically changed, and the aura of the world like tidal waves, converged into a huge vortex in the sky.
The collision of various auras made the sky colorful and the forests within a thousand miles could feel this change.
“What’s happening? Could there have been an issue with a treasure?”
Many cultivators were alarmed and hurried towards the direction where the aura was gathering.
Just then, the sky was filled with dark clouds, and countless thunder elements began to converge, with gold thunder dragons rolling in between.
The cultivators originally flying in the sky quickly descended towards the seawater.
“Could it be a tribulation?”
“This is not a treasure being born, someone is advancing!”
“To face the Heavenly Tribulation, it must be someone advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage!”
“In our sea area, resources are scarce. There are only a few at the Golden Core Stage, so how could a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator suddenly emerge?”
“I guess someone came from another place. We don’t know if it’s Sea Race or Human Clan. If it’s the Sea Race, it’s a big trouble!”
“Even if it’s our Human Clan, it won’t be any better. The power balance in the Outer Sea will probably be disturbed again!”
“Let’s go to meet him as soon as he completes his advancement, maybe we could join under his command.”
“I’m not going. What if it’s an evil cultivator and he decides to celebrate by taking our lives.”
Some came, some left. Everybody had different thoughts.
However, none of these affected the changes in the sky.
The thunder was still gathering, and when it reached a peak, a large lightning bolt slashed ferociously towards the sea.
Just then, a purple figure flew out from bottom of the sea towards the lightning.
Boom!
In that moment, between the heavens and the earth were completely illuminated.
The loud noise deafened everyone.
The next moment another thunderbolt fell.
A halberd appeared in the hand of the figure, releasing strong thunderous power, not giving in to the Heavenly Tribulation. The spectating crowd was dumbfounded.
Is this how the tribulation for the Nascent Soul stage supposed to be crossed? It doesn’t conform to their imaginations at all?
Just then, the third thunderbolt fell.
The figure now had wings on his back and rushed directly into the sea of thunder in the sky.
The onlooking crowd in the distance were stunned.
This completely defies their common sense.
After a long time, a purple thunder light burst out, directly splitting apart the thunder clouds in the sky.
Thus, the dark clouds disappeared, and the sky was filled with light. The figure stood in the light, like a divine being.
…
“Is this a Nascent Soul?!”
A little white man-like figure with wings on its back, like a fairy, flew out of Xu Mu’s body, continuously flickering around, flying here and there.
After a long time, it flew back into his body, and only then did Xu Mu open his eyes.
Energy! Qi! Spirit!
Completely different from before the advancement, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say it was a turning of the heavens and the earth.
“Unfortunately, I still can’t stimulate the power of the Sky-splitting Halberd!”
Xu Mu slightly regretfully retracted the Sky-splitting Halberd in his hand, but regardless of how he infused it with spiritual power, it remained like a bottomless pit, with no response.
“It seems that I might need to reach the Divinity Transformation Stage to truly use the Sky-splitting Halberd!”
I don’t know whether to feel happy, or to feel upset!
The good thing is, this proves that the grade of the Sky-splitting Halberd is high. The upsetting thing is, his help didn’t improve it much, so he can only use it like a regular weapon.
But there was also good news, he could now freely handle the God Refining Tripod and use it normally.
From now on, his alchemy would be much easier.
Besides, his two lifebound Skills were upgraded to tier ten under the tribulation’s baptism. Although they were still lower-grade, they would enhance his strength to a new level.
Of course, most importantly, he formed the Ancestral Nascent Soul. The quality and power of his spiritual energy greatly surpassed that of a normal Nascent Soul. At the same time, his Ancestral Nascent Soul’s inherent affinity to the five elements was exceptionally strong.
With this inherent ability, whether he was cultivating, fighting, or recovering, he would have a huge advantage.
“Unfortunately, I haven’t cultivated any tier ten Skills, so I can’t fully utilize this advantage.”
Of course, in addition to these good things, some other things were not so good.
That was that his five clones had all been rendered useless.
“I didn’t expect you to really succeed!”
Lu Jingkong was full of shock.
He had always thought that Xu Mu’s chances were slim, but Xu Mu was able to successfully form his Nascent Soul almost smoothly right under his nose.
Five Golden Pills integrated as one, surprisingly without a single conflict.
Returning of the split divine intents made the strength of his soul far surpassing the Golden Core Stage. Later, with a large amount of Sin Refining Pills, his divine intent was even stronger than a typical Nascent Soul’s. This made his Heart Demon tribulation unexpectedly uneventful.
The body cultivated by the Purple Flame Heavenly Lightning drastically reduced the conflict of spiritual energy during the advancement process, and even the Heavenly Tribulation became less severe.
Watching all this, Lu Jingkong began to question his existence.
Why was advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage so simple?
Did I cultivate a fake path before?
