The Age Of Doom: I Can Deduce Countless Ages Of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 29: Gold Core Refinement

The Daoist Treasury Pavilion emitted a radiant white light, shining brightly in the clouds.

Zhang Qingyuan sat cross-legged on a cushion, listening to the creaking sounds coming from inside the Daoist Treasury Pavilion, while his divine sense carefully scanned every corner.

The interior of the Daoist Treasury Pavilion was undergoing earth-shattering changes.

Human intelligence originates from the brain, which is composed of cells that function like the parts of a precise machine.

In the cultivation world, it is not uncommon for mountains and rocks to become sentient.

Zhang Qingyuan's former Divine Ability, which could enlighten all things, could bestow souls on objects to enlighten their intelligence.

But the pollution caused by the memetic divine light this time was different.

The Daoist Treasury Pavilion also gave birth to a structure similar to that of a human body.

Zhang Qingyuan's divine sense sensed countless subtle spiritual particles gathering towards the top of the Daoist Treasury Pavilion. At this moment, the texture of the entire Daoist Treasury Pavilion had completely changed.

The cracks on the dilapidated white walls wriggled like worms, making creaking sounds, but they had already healed like new in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, countless spiritual energy surged towards the Daoist Treasury Pavilion within the Qingxia Sect.

Suddenly, a crack appeared on the white wall in front of Zhang Qingyuan. The crack gradually widened, and a white light rose from it. The stone used to build the Daoist Treasury Pavilion formed a white pupil centered around the white light!

It! Gained intelligence.

The eyes are an extremely important manifestation of intelligence.

Zhang Qingyuan looked at the white pupil in front of him, his gaze slightly condensed. The changes on the Daoist Treasury Pavilion had not stopped yet!

Boom!

All the doors and windows of the Daoist Treasury Pavilion opened wide, and an extreme suction force emanated from it, absorbing all the spiritual energy like a whale sucking in rivers.

A round white pill made of stone rose in front of Zhang Qingyuan.

"This is the Gold Core?"

Zhang Qingyuan's eyes lit up when he saw the pill appear.

The Gold Core is definitely a crucial symbol in cultivation.

Because it has another name, Dao Seed!

The previous Qi Condensation and Foundation Building stages were just for condensing the Gold Core. Only after the Gold Core stage can one truly step into the path of immortality.

The Daoist Treasury Pavilion has only been around for a short time, yet it already shows signs of forming a Gold Core!

Zhang Qingyuan couldn't help but be surprised.

Because he could feel that the quality of the Daoist Treasury Pavilion had not yet reached the level of a Gold Core.

It hadn't even reached the level of a Foundation Building monster.

But why could it directly skip two realms and reach the Gold Core stage?

Doubts flashed in Zhang Qingyuan's eyes.

At this time, the glazed tiles on the eaves of the Daoist Treasury Pavilion became increasingly radiant. The purple-gold beams, vermilion gates, and jade railings all appeared in a jade color. At this moment, the Daoist Treasury Pavilion seemed to have transformed into a white jade fairy palace.

The white light on the surface of the Daoist Treasury Pavilion became stronger and stronger, making Mount Zhu appear as bright as day, with countless clouds surging in the constantly churning light.

At this moment, all the disciples of the Qingxia Sect, including Mu Qingxi, walked out of their caves and stared blankly at the magnificent white jade fairy palace in the sky.

The White Morning Demon King on the Nameless Mountain trembled when he saw the white jade building, his mind shaking. "This... is enlightening all things!"

Enlightening all things is a Divine Ability possessed by only a few powerful beings.

Wherever these powerful beings pass by, all things turn into demons, and a demon mountain is born in an instant.

However, those powerful beings are already existences that have ascended to immortality.

Even if an ordinary cultivator possesses the Divine Ability to enlighten all things, it is no different from bestowing their own cultivation on an object.

Based on White Morning's experience, the amount of spiritual energy needed to enlighten such a white jade fairy palace is probably enough to drain four or five Gold Cores.

But Zhang Qingyuan is only in the mid-Foundation Building stage. Where did he get such terrifying spiritual energy?

The other demon kings were also shocked when they saw the white jade fairy palace.

In Wu Yuzhang's eyes, a look of confusion appeared, as the technique of enlightenment was no different from self-destruction in cultivation.

Why would Zhang Qingyuan sacrifice his cultivation to enlighten a building?

If it were him, even if he wanted to enlighten, he would do so without affecting the foundation of his own cultivation.

Could it be...

Before Wu Yuzhang could think further, a golden shadow resembling the sun descended above the immortal palace.

"That is! The Formation of the Golden Core - the Fire Refinement!!"

At first glance, Wu Yuzhang recognized the origin of that golden shadow.

Life, old age, sickness, and death are the norms of all things, and cultivation itself is going against the natural order.

The True Immortal, who has lived for a long time, is a creature that surpasses the rules of all things.

On the path of cultivation, one needs to go through three calamities to become an immortal!

These three calamities are the Formation of the Golden Core, the Fire Refinement.

The Soul Formation calamity, the erosion of the Yin spirit by the wind.

The Mahayana calamity, the annihilation of the immortal soul by thunder.

Only after these three calamities can one be considered an immortal. If there is no one to help, it is extremely difficult to overcome these calamities.

The stronger you are, the stronger the calamities.

In this way, relying solely on oneself to overcome the calamities is extremely difficult. Cultivators from prestigious families and sects can ask powerful beings to help them avoid disasters. However, those independent cultivators without any support, countless talented cultivators have perished in these calamities.

"Could it be that Taiwei Zhenjun used his Foundation Building cultivation to enlighten a Golden Core monster?"

The Black Bull Demon King said incredulously.

Before the end of the law, its cultivation was only in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. It took thousands of years for it to reach the Golden Core stage.

But that building, in just a short moment since the white light rose, directly saved thousands of years of arduous cultivation!

A hint of bitterness emerged in the Black Bull Demon King's heart.

Qingyu Demon King looked at the immortal palace that was gradually covered in flames, and said solemnly, "Things are not that simple."

The Fire Refinement of the Golden Core involves three types of fire: the Burning Body Samadhi Fire, the Destruction of Yin Spirits Fire, and the Azure Clouds Refining Qi Fire.

These three fires target the physical body, the Yin spirit, and the spiritual power, respectively.

If one cannot withstand any of these fires, they will meet a dead end.

At this moment, when the demons saw the golden shadow descending with the fire, their minds were also stirred.

Can Zhang Qingyuan really use his Foundation Building cultivation to enlighten a Golden Core?

...

The orange Burning Body Samadhi Fire on the Daoist Treasury Hall instantly engulfed the entire building. The originally white jade immortal palace turned black in the blink of an eye, becoming a tower of fire.

At this moment, Zhang Qingyuan heard a mournful cry in his divine sense, which came from the Daoist Treasury Hall!

His gaze fell on the white pupils that were burned by the gray Destruction of Yin Spirits Fire in front of him.

Although Zhang Qingyuan successfully engraved the information of longevity, the Daoist Treasury Hall itself couldn't bear it!

"Thunder, wind, and fire calamities, is heaven obstructing longevity?"

Zhang Qingyuan looked at the wailing white pupils, lost in thought. His figure flashed and appeared on the Daoist Treasury Hall.

At this time, countless Azure Clouds Refining Qi Fires outside the Daoist Treasury Hall condensed into a sea of fire, as if it was about to engulf Zhang Qingyuan and the Daoist Treasury Hall.

Standing on top of the building, Zhang Qingyuan put away the divine light that was engraving the information of longevity.

The reaction of the Daoist Treasury Hall, which was devouring spiritual energy, stopped at this moment, but the power of the three fires did not diminish in the slightest. There was even a faint trend of enhancement!

In the face of the three fires, Zhang Qingyuan showed no fear. He raised his head slightly and looked at the blazing three fires, revealing a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

Directly engraving longevity on the genes had failed.

What a pity!

The mournful cry of the Daoist Treasury Hall grew louder in Zhang Qingyuan's ears. He sighed lightly and said, "Since you were born because of me, I will block this calamity for you!"

Suddenly, Zhang Qingyuan's aura changed...
