The frenzied cultivation had rendered Shen Qiang unable to feel the passage of time, all his attention focused on refining the Golden Core.

"The Golden Core is becoming brighter, but only after it is flawless can the Sea of Consciousness be opened. For only a pure and perfect Golden Core can transform into a perfect Nascent Soul after surviving the tribulation. But these black spots, deeply embedded in the Golden Core, there are still a hundred or more. To refine them one by one with True Yuan would take too long."

"Now, with the Long Yan Sword Sect clearly planning to make a move in a week, if I continue refining like this, in just one short week, I might only manage to refine a few black spots. By then, how could I possibly achieve a flawless Golden Core, let alone reach the Nascent Soul Stage?"

"According to the secret techniques in the Medical Saint Inheritance, a damaged Nascent Soul can be repaired. It, like the human body, possesses a certain self-healing capability."

"Since the Nascent Soul can heal itself, what about the Golden Core?"

"If the Nascent Soul can be healed, then as the embryo of the Nascent Soul, the Golden Core must also possess self-healing capabilities."

"Not only that, the Golden Core is produced after the condensation of True Yuan."

"As long as there is enough True Yuan, its healing speed should be very fast!" A clear-minded Shen Qiang gradually became excited, "In the human body, if a part is diseased, the simplest, most effective method is to cut it out. Now, I don't have much time to waste on refining these black spots in the Golden Core. Why not just directly cut these black spots out?"

"After all, relying on True Yuan to refine these black spots might take months to handle, but if I were to surgically remove and discard these black spots, even though there are over a hundred, for me, it would just take a couple of hours."

With this thought, Shen Qiang could no longer control the impulse in his heart.

After all, Shen Qiang was a doctor, and the most outstanding surgeon at that. So when faced with impurities within the Golden Core that needed removal, reason told him that there was no other method in this world faster or more effective than surgery.

His mind sank.

In Shen Qiang's mind, the Golden Core magnified countless times, becoming as large as a giant building. Standing before the black spots of the Golden Core, Shen Qiang, holding his breath and concentrating, instantly activated precision, his fingers like a knife, condensing True Yuan, and then forcefully poked along the edge of a black spot.

Puff!

His arm smoothly sliced in.

He felt no pain, and his breathing did not become disordered.

Not only that, but Shen Qiang was also surprised to find that once his arm penetrated the Golden Core, inside he distinctly felt a sticky golden liquid, and those black dots were silent impurities, formed like thorns.

After Shen Qiang removed one of the impurities, the surging golden liquid immediately filled the gap, and on the surface of the Golden Core, created a layer of membrane, preventing the golden liquid from spilling out, somewhat like how blood can coagulate on its own.

Not only that, even more to Shen Qiang's delight, the already liquefied True Yuan was quickly absorbed by the Golden Core, transformed into the golden liquid, and replenished the Golden Core.

This result made Shen Qiang ecstatic in an instant.

Because it meant that not only was Shen Qiang's hypothesis correct, performing surgery on the Golden Core, directly removing the impurities within it, was indeed effective, and more astonishingly, it had absolutely no side effects.

Overjoyed, Shen Qiang couldn't help but look at the massive Golden Core before him with exhilarated eyes, "Just over a hundred impurities, I'll continue removing them..."

Supported by a strong conviction and an excited mood.

Shen Qiang, utilizing surging True Yuan, constantly maintained a high frequency surgery to excise black spots from the Golden Core.

By five-thirty in the afternoon,

Shen Qiang, who had been seated in a meditative cultivation posture, finally completed the surgery to remove all black spots from his Golden Core.

At this moment, the Golden Core was thoroughly golden, flawless in every aspect.

The True Qi inside his body had also been largely depleted, it was not until Shen Qiang ceased his cultivation and opened his eyes that he found, standing by his side were not only Xiu Ju, but also Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing.

Seeing their eyes wide with astonishment, staring blankly at him.

Shen Qiang, slightly surprised, asked, "Why are you staring at me?"

Upon hearing this, Xiu Ju, anxiously turned and sat beside Shen Qiang, exclaimed in shock, "I observed your aura, and it has reached the peak of the Golden Core Stage. Does this mean you have purified your Golden Core?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang calmly nodded and replied, "Yes, the Golden Core is impurity-free now, it's not difficult."

Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing stared agape, astonished she blurted out, "What did you say? Purifying the Golden Core is not difficult? Are you joking? It took me over a year to purify my Golden Core!"

Xiu Ju exclaimed even more astounded, "The impurities in the Golden Core are deep-seated, to eliminate them requires True Yuan to nourish them day and night until they slowly vanish, and the speed of disappearance is very slow. Usually, a very tiny black spot takes at least several days to disappear. You've only reached the Golden Core Stage for just over two months, having previously been in the late stage. How could your Golden Core become pure in just a few hours?"

Looking at the two of them, Shen Qiang smiled and said,

"The correct method to purify the Golden Core involves gradual nourishment day and night? Then I must have practiced incorrectly because I am a surgeon, so I'm accustomed to excising what is not good and then repairing it. That's why I dug out all the black spots in my Golden Core."

"Afterward, nourishing it with True Yuan, I discovered that without those black spots, the Golden Core healed very quickly, almost in the blink of an eye under the nourishment of the True Yuan. Thus, on a whim, I cleaned up all the black spots..."

"You excised the impurities in the Golden Core!" exclaimed the Beautiful Demon Fox in shock.

Xiu Ju's expression changed as she swiftly checked Shen Qiang's condition.

When it was confirmed that Shen Qiang's Golden Core was indeed pure and everything was normal, Xiu Ju burst out laughing, "Genius, Shen Qiang, you really are a genius! In this world, those daring to excavate their own Golden Core, I believe, you are absolutely the first one!"

Shen Qiang chuckled.

At this moment, the Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing's eyes sparkled with exceptional delight, she said excitedly, "I once thought my talent and cultivation speed were that of a genius, and the cultivation methods I knew were the ultimate truths of heaven and earth. But now I realize that to purify the Golden Core, there is not only the method of slow nourishment."

Xiu Ju also excitedly said, "Yes, it's insane, but even if this were told to others, no one would believe it because every cultivator would meticulously protect their Golden Core, aside from you, your madman, who else would dare to operate on their own Golden Core!"

Shen Qiang laughed.

Almost at the same time, the Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing sincerely added, "Now that your Golden Core is pure, and with one more week to go, I suddenly feel that achieving the transition from the Golden Core Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage within three months, something completely impossible, might indeed be something you could achieve!"
