Chapter 620: Chapter 289: Divine Soul Melding with Golden Core, Tribulation Lightning Refines True Monarch_2

Next, Han Yi easily broke open many Qiankun Rings and inspected the various treasures and half-step Treasures he had obtained.

In Tianzhu Sis Xuantian, besides Zhuo Yangxi’s Gu Yuan Knife, Han Yi also obtained two half-step Treasures, one being a long whip and the other being a Pill Furnace.

Among them, the long whip was damaged, while the Pill Furnace was intact. After inspecting it, Han Yi stored it in the Qiankun Ring.

Then.

Han Yi took out a Fourth-stage Spirit Gathering Array, which also came from Xia Quan. After setting up the Spirit Gathering Array in the hall, he connected the array to the Spirit Vein below.

Han Yi thought about it and felt that it was still not safe, so he took out hundreds of thousands of Top-Grade Spirit Stones from the Qiankun Ring and placed them in the hall. He also took out more than 700 Top-Grade Spirit Stones from his body in case of emergency.

These more than 700 Top-Grade Spirit Stones were obtained by killing many Gold Core cultivators and several Nascent Souls. This amount of Spirit Stones for a Golden Core is simply a fortune, and even many Mid-stage Nascent Souls couldn’t have so many Top-Grade Spirit Stones.

Breaking through Nascent Soul is a big challenge, but once you achieve Nascent Soul, there is nowhere you cannot go in this world.

So no matter how much preparation, it is not excessive.

An hour later.

Han Yi put away various treasures, spirit stones, pills, etc. Then, he put the Evil Suppression Sword and Chunqiu Sword into the Qiankun Ring, leaving only the Green Reed Sword on his knee.

This Sword Tool had been with him since the Qi Cultivation Stage. In addition, it shares the same name as a certain legendary Immortal Sword from his previous life, which made Han Yi rely on it and form a strong emotional bond with it over time.

Moreover, the Green Reed Sword is already a half-step Treasure. When Han Yi forms a Nascent Soul, he will try to draw the power of Heavenly Tribulation to transform the Green Reed Sword into a real Treasure.

When Yuan Shun faced the Heavenly Tribulation during his Golden Core Peak, his Supreme Eight Trigrams Furnace swallowed the power of Heavenly Tribulation and became a Treasure. With time, he could develop the Treasure Space, give birth to the authority of the Treasure, and become a real Treasure.

Han Yi’s Green Reed Sword is not simple. In the Cave Heaven, it can even compete with Qin Tong’s Treasure Sword Tool. Once it transforms into a Treasure, it will definitely be a great weapon.

Of course, if he can find other separated swords and fuse them into the main sword, the Green Reed Sword will also instantly transform and become a Treasure. However, separated swords are hard to find and rely on chance. It’s better to try to transform this legendary sword tool into a Treasure in the Heavenly Tribulation.

Sitting cross-legged in the hall of Qingchi Palace, everything ready, Han Yi took a deep breath and his mind sank into his body.

Han Yi had thoroughly understood the matter of forming a Nascent Soul for years. Especially after gathering memories of several Golden Core Peak cultivators, including Bao Zhe Sheng, Zhang Tu, and Xia Quan, and condensing them into soul shadows, Han Yi had paid special attention to the breakthrough of Nascent Soul in the soul shadows.

After cross-verification, he has refined the most normal experience and thought process for forming a Nascent Soul.

To summarize in ten words, it is:

Divine Soul merges with Golden Core, Heavenly Tribulation refines the True Monarch.

After a cultivator breaks through to the Golden Core, their Spirit Sea expands. From the early stage to the middle stage, and from the middle stage to the later stage, the Spirit Sea expands each time, and it is a vertical expansion, advancing towards the top. During this process, the Golden Core moves towards the top as well.

For example, at the moment, Han Yi’s realm has reached the Golden Core Peak and his Golden Core is basically attached to the upper wall of the Spirit Sea.

This is the limit of the Golden Core.

Above the upper wall of the Spirit Sea, separated by an invisible barrier, is the Sea of ​​Consciousness where the Divine Soul resides.

In the lower half of the Spirit Sea, there are crystalline mana particles that are the smallest units formed by the solidification of mana.

These crystalline mana particles provide mana support for breakthroughs, allowing the Nascent Soul to quickly take shape.

On the other hand, the Divine Soul in the Sea of Consciousness also transforms during the Golden Core breakthrough process. Under normal circumstances, if a cultivator doesn’t practice special Soul Skills to enhance their Divine Soul, their breakthrough into Nascent Soul may be affected due to a weaker Divine Soul. They might not even be able to break through the barrier between the Spirit Sea and the Sea of Consciousness. Even if they could, the Nascent Soul would be unstable and would struggle against the Heavenly Tribulation, leading to the destruction of the cultivator below the Heavenly Stage.

Therefore, most Golden Core cultivators will practice Divine Soul techniques to make their Divine Soul on par with their mana Golden Core.

And to break through to the Nascent Soul, the main role is no longer the Golden Core, not the physical body, but… the Divine Soul.

The Sea of Consciousness is a protection for the Divine Soul before Nascent Soul. And when breaking through to Nascent Soul, the Sea of Consciousness becomes a shackle.

The Divine Soul breaks the shackles of the Sea of Consciousness, connects with the Spirit Sea, and the upper, middle, and lower Dantians merge. Only when the Divine Soul merges with the Golden Core can the Nascent Soul condense.

Once the Nascent Soul is formed, Heavenly Tribulation arises.

Surviving the tribulation, one becomes a True Monarch.

Merging the Divine Soul with the Golden Core and refining the True Monarch through the Heavenly Tribulation is the way of the Nascent Soul.

This is the experience of forming a Nascent Soul summarized by generations since ancient times in the Cultivation World. People have walked this path before, so Han Yi doesn’t need to seek another way.

When Yuan Shun formed the Nascent Soul, his Divine Soul was one step behind. It was only after observing Han Yi’s Ninefold Soul Tower’s mysterious Divine Soul that he realized the breakthrough and transformed his Divine Soul, allowing him to break the Sea of ​​Consciousness, merge with the Golden Core, and achieve the Nascent Soul.

Of course.

This is only the main step, and many other conditions must also be met, such as Outer World Heavenly Demons, the fusion of the three Dantians, the surge of Mana, the need for the physical body to be tempered to a certain extent to withstand Mana, the surrounding Spirit Energy, and dealing with Heart Demon Tribulation and Karma Tribulation during the Heavenly Tribulation.
