373: Chapter 358 Golden Core 9th Cycle_1 373: Chapter 358 Golden Core 9th Cycle_1 Within the secret chamber.
Lu Chuan looked at the ridian Protecting Pill, Extre Yin Water, and the fire spark from the Divine Fire of the Sun placed before him, and asked the Tower Spirit, “Tower Spirit, what should I do?”
The Tower Spirit said indifferently, “I have already shown you the incantation for devouring the fire seed.
First, swallow the ridian Protecting Pill, then drink the Extre Yin Water.
After that, circulate the incantation, and once your body has slightly adapted, swallow the fire seed.
Follow the thod described in the incantation to circulate your energy, allowing the fire seed’s power to flow within your body.
When your ridians are completely refined by the power of the fire seed, it will naturally rge with you and be at your disposal.”
Lu Chuan nodded, then swallowed the ridian Protecting Pill.
A vast force erged, instantly reaching his limbs and bones and protecting all of his ridians.
Afterward, he picked up the porcelain jar and drank all of the Extre Yin Water contained within it.
Wave after wave of cold began to erode his body, making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, with his blood even showing a tendency to freeze.
Enduring the invasion of the cold, he began to circulate the incantation for devouring the fire seed.
The coldness followed the incantation into his limbs and bones, making his body as stiff as if it had been frozen.
After a while, he gradually adapted to the circulation of the incantation.
Relying on his willpower, he reached out to pick up the stone carrying the fire spark from the Divine Fire of the Sun, brought it to his mouth, and then, with the power of the incantation, he took a fierce breath, and the fire seed rapidly left the stone and flew into Lu Chuan’s mouth.
The mont the fire seed entered his mouth, Lu Chuan imdiately felt a sense of relief all over his body, the sensation of being frozen stiff suddenly vanished, and the invasion of the cold was suppressed.
However, before he could feel happy, the next second, he felt a burning sensation throughout his ridians, so intense that he couldn’t help but cry out.
“This damn thing, it’s too painful!”
Cold sweat covered Lu Chuan’s body, but as soon as it appeared, it was evaporated completely by the high temperature of the fire seed.
Lu Chuan turned into a red-hot man in an instant.
If it weren’t for the protection of the ridian Protecting Pill and the Extre Yin Water resisting the power of the fire seed, coupled with his Primal Chaos Indestructible Body’s robustness, he would have been burned to ashes by the fire seed long ago.
“You must quickly cycle the incantation and absorb the power of the fire seed; otherwise, it won’t be long before you will be burned to death by the fire seed,” the Tower Spirit’s voice sounded.
Clenching his teeth, Lu Chuan endured the tornt within his body, focused his mind, and started to circulate the incantation taught by the Tower Spirit with difficulty.
As the incantation circulated, the fire seed’s power began to purge his ridians, multiplying the pain he had felt previously several tis over.
Lu Chuan had never experienced such agony in his life and was on the verge of ntal collapse.
But fortunately, his willpower was fairly steadfast.
In the end, he endured the pain and forcibly completed a circulation cycle.
Although the pain did not lessen after this cycle, Lu Chuan clearly felt a bit more at ease and imdiately began circulating the second cycle.
In this way, amidst excruciating agony, Lu Chuan began another sequence of incantation circulation.
Later on, he had completely adapted to the fire seed’s burning of his body and sat cross-legged on the ground, unfazed, cycling the incantation repeatedly, absorbing the power of the fire seed, and continuously refining the bones and ridians within his body.
Three days later.
In the secret chamber, Lu Chuan sat cross-legged like an old monk in ditation, motionless.
His skin, which had seed burned, had returned to normal, signifying he could now easily contain the power of the Divine Fire of the Sun within his body.
Shortly after, Lu Chuan suddenly opened his eyes, and two jumping flas appeared within them.
Then, with a flick of his finger in the air, a terrifying fla erged, directly burning away the seals he had set up in the secret chamber, leaving nothing behind.
“The Divine Fire of the Sun, fad for being able to incinerate everything, truly lives up to its reputation,” he mused.
A trace of excitent appeared on Lu Chuan’s face.
At this mont, the Divine Fire of the Sun had completely rged with him and was now located in his Dantian.
In the future, with just a thought, he could release flas through Spiritual Power to control the fire seed, with the intensity of the flas depending on the strength of his release.
Under normal circumstances, with the boost from the Divine Fire of the Sun, Lu Chuan’s combat ability was definitely a level higher than that of experts of the sa rank.
Moreover, after consuming the Divine Fire of the Sun, the Spiritual Power within Lu Chuan had also acquired so of the fire’s characteristics.
In hand-to-hand combat, when he injected his power into his opponent’s body, it could create a burning effect, making his opponents suffer intensely.
The Primal Chaos Indestructible Body, after being refined by the Divine Fire of the Sun, also underwent so different changes.
Now, not only was Lu Chuan’s offensive power staggering, but his defensive ability had also reached an astounding level.
“Right now I can only unleash a very small part of the Divine Fire’s power, but as my strength increases, the devastation the Divine Fire can cause will grow stronger and stronger.
I wonder if one day I can rely on this Divine Fire of the Sun to truly achieve the spectacle of incinerating heaven and earth with a re thought,” he pondered.
Filled with excitent, Lu Chuan knew that the boost to his combat ability provided by the Divine Fire of the Sun was only secondary.
The Tower Spirit had said that as long as he devoured the fire seed, his strength would surge trendously.
He looked forward to inspecting his Dantian, eager to see to what extent his strength had increased after consuming the Divine Fire.
He carefully observed his Birth Sign Golden Core and was shocked to discover that there were now a total of nine cloud patterns on it!
“Golden Core 9th Cycle!”
“My heavens, my strength has directly risen from Golden Core 6th Cycle to Golden Core 9th Cycle, isn’t that too fierce?” he exclaid.
Excitent was written all over Lu Chuan’s face.
Now only one step away, he could transform his Golden Core into a Nascent Soul and beco a true powerhouse of the Nascent Soul Stage!
Moreover, with the empowernt of the Divine Fire of the Sun and the Primal Chaos Indestructible Body, he believed that no one below the Nascent Soul Stage could be his opponent!
In such a realm, even if the Great Elder had reached Profound Realm Level 9, he would certainly not be his match.
Although he still could not compete with true Nascent Soul Stage powerhouses, he was confident he could put up a fight against a master of the Saint Realm corresponding to him.
Of course, Gu Xiaosang had previously inford him that the Saint Realm was divided into ranks from one to nine.
Should he encounter a master who had just stepped into the Saint Realm, Lu Chuan felt he could cope sowhat, but if he faced a master who had advanced several ranks within the Saint Realm, he would find it quite challenging.
However, this was already enough for him.
Shen Ruhai had told him that the Great Elder’s strength had been stuck at Profound Realm Level 9 for many years and had been unable to break through.
Now that Lu Chuan, unrivaled below the Nascent Soul Stage, wished to kill the Great Elder, it would be as easy as slaughtering a chicken.
A trace of emotion appeared on Lu Chuan’s face.
He rembered how he had once been as insignificant as an ant in front of the Great Elder, who could have easily ended his life with a flick of his finger.
Yet now, in such a short period of ti, he had grown strong enough to instill fear in the Great Elder.
The elder would certainly lose his jaw in shock upon hearing this news.
Suddenly, he recalled the Tower Spirit once saying that when he achieved Golden Core 7th Cycle, it would tell him of a function of the Demon Suppression Pagoda.
So, he quickly communicated with the Tower Spirit, “Tower Spirit, Tower Spirit, I’ve reached Golden Core 9th Cycle now.
You said that you would tell about a function of the Demon Suppression Pagoda once I reached Golden Core 7th Cycle.
You can’t go back on your word.”
The voice of the Tower Spirit resounded, “Fine, since you have now initially grown from a weakling into a sowhat formidable weakling, I will tell you of a function of the Demon Suppression Pagoda.”
“Although you’ve reached Golden Core 9th Cycle, this level of power is still far from enough to wield the Demon Suppression Pagoda’s true power, and so you cannot access its full potential yet.
However, it has one feature that you can make use of right now, and it’s very practical, too.”
Lu Chuan perked up his ears, asking, “What feature?”
The Tower Spirit didn’t answer directly but instead asked back, “Do you know how much the Demon Suppression Pagoda weighs?”
Lu Chuan thought for a mont, then said, “I don’t know, but since it can exist within my Dantian, I suppose it can’t be that heavy, right?”
The Tower Spirit said speechlessly, “You think it’s not that heavy because the Demon Suppression Pagoda has acknowledged you as its master.
Naturally, it wouldn’t beco a burden to you, but for others, it’s a different story.”
“The total weight of the Demon Suppression Pagoda is 308,600 jin, which, converted into modern units, is about a dozen tons.
It might not seem that heavy.”
“But as the master of the Demon Suppression Pagoda, you can control its size at will.
While its weight remains unchanged, the smaller the volu, the greater the density.
And since the weight of the Demon Suppression Pagoda is virtually non-existent for you, imagine the effect it would have in combat if you unexpectedly pressed it against an opponent.”
Lu Chuan gave it so thought and realized that if he really did as the Tower Spirit suggested, it could cause unimaginable destruction in combat.
A dozen-ton object that was only the size of a palm—if it were simply to fall freely, it would smash a deep crater thousands of ters into the ground, let alone if it were to fall on a person.
In that situation, unless one had reached the Nascent Soul Stage, no matter how many defensive asures one had, they would beco fragile like paper in the face of the Demon Suppression Pagoda, unable to withstand a single blow.
His face lit up with excitent.
This way, he had another trump card up his sleeve.
“That is indeed a practical function.
But you being a tower spirit from the ancient tis should be very feudal in mindset.
How co you understand our modern middle school physics knowledge?” Lu Chuan asked with a laugh.
The Tower Spirit replied with annoyance, “Can’t I be a tower spirit who loves to study?
When I have nothing to do, I like to learn all sorts of knowledge.
You don’t think I’m always peeking at you and those won engaging in debauchery, do you?”
Lu Chuan’s eyes widened, “What the hell?
Didn’t you say you don’t pay attention to the outside world?
How would you know about that?”
The Tower Spirit coughed lightly, “I saw it by accident.
Alright, don’t talk to anymore, I have to study seriously now.
Goodbye, you pervert!”
Lu Chuan suddenly felt a chill run down his spine; every ti he did that kind of thing, was there a lecherous Tower Spirit watching quietly?
“I really was too gullible to believe its words, thinking it wouldn’t peek.
It seems from now on when I’m busy with that kind of business, I have to first isolate the Tower Spirit’s perception within the Demon Suppression Pagoda.”
Thinking so, Lu Chuan got up and left the secret chamber.
He arrived at Shen Ruhai’s study, and as soon as he entered, he sensed sothing was amiss.
Seeing that Lu Chuan had ended his seclusion, Shen Ruhai imdiately stood up, his expression sowhat grave.
“Uncle”, what’s happened?
Why do you look so troubled?” Lu Chuan asked.
Shen Ruhai presented a piece of intelligence to Lu Chuan and said, “This is information recently obtained by the Shen family’s intelligence departnt.
The Great Elder has kidnapped your sister-in-law and demands you et at a designated location within three days or else she will be killed by a slow and painful death!”
Lu Chuan took the intelligence and glanced at it.
Upon seeing the photo of Mu Nanqing hanging from a tree, barely alive, a surge of anger erupted within him, and the temperature in the study room instantly rose by several degrees.
Shen Ruhai was startled by the sudden change in temperature, suddenly realizing that, even he could no longer see through the current Lu Chuan.
He hurriedly said, “Lu Chuan, the Great Elder has obviously set a trap, waiting for you to jump right into it.
He must have prepared a way to deal with you.
If you really go, I’m afraid…”
Lu Chuan snorted coldly, his eyes brimming with murderous intent, and he spoke firmly, “I can’t ignore my sister-in-law’s safety.
Even if what awaits is a mountain of swords and a sea of flas, I must go!”
“It’s ti to settle the score between the Great Elder and !”
