Chapter 593: Chapter 245: Breakthrough to Late-stage Golden Core
The scene of the Moon Witch Race successfully driving off the Kunpeng faded.
What followed was a grand sacrificial ceremony.
For Xiao Chen, it wasn’t particularly interesting.
The final scene was of numerous warriors from the tribe cultivating as a group.
He estimated there were several thousand of them, all bare-chested. Clear Battle Patterns were visible on the bodies of many of the warriors.
Especially when they performed Witchcraft, those Battle Patterns would glow faintly, just like runes.
Or rather, they were more akin to the inscriptions carved onto Magical Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts.
These patterns helped the Moon Witch warriors better perform their Witchcraft or strengthen their bodies.
’That’s interesting.’
Xiao Chen studied the Battle Patterns. They represented an entirely new way of utilizing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
However, he didn’t pay it too much mind. The most important thing right now was the Enhanced Blood Crystal.
With the Lunar Eclipse finally over, Su Li took a Blood Crystal from her robes. It was a much deeper color, like a ruby.
In the light of dawn, it refracted a dazzling brilliance.
As Xiao Chen’s gaze was drawn to the Blood Crystal, he could clearly feel the rich life force flowing within.
Just looking at it made it almost impossible to look away, creating a deep-seated desire to touch and devour it.
Moreover, this feeling wasn’t an Illusion; it was a tangible pull.
"If anything feels wrong, or if you start to feel uncomfortable, just let me know."
Su Li warned, concerned that the Blood Crystal, having absorbed too much Curse Power, would put too much strain on Xiao Chen.
"Don’t worry, I’ll be fine."
Xiao Chen gave her a reassuring smile, then immediately sat cross-legged and began the Refinement.
BOOM!
The instant he made contact, a torrent of Qi Blood Power, like a bursting flood, surged through his abdomen and into his body.
Compared to that of an ordinary Blood Crystal, the Qi Blood Power within the Enhanced Blood Crystal was far more violent.
The difference between the two was like a gentle spring breeze versus a biting winter wind.
This Qi Blood Power mercilessly and frantically scoured every organ, every Meridian, and even every drop of blood it could reach inside Xiao Chen’s body.
The process itself was practically an intense Body Tempering session.
If he could endure it, he would obtain a much more powerful physique.
If he couldn’t, he would suffer severe injuries instead.
If Xiao Chen had started with an Enhanced Blood Crystal from the beginning, he truly would have risked injury.
Fortunately, he now had the foundation from refining the previous Blood Crystals. His physique was several times stronger than when he first started, allowing him to completely withstand the onslaught.
At the same time, a considerable portion of the Qi Blood took the opportunity to fuse into his internal organs.
Xiao Chen could clearly feel this portion of Qi Blood suddenly vanish within his body, just like the Qi Blood that had previously fused with his Meridians.
Fortunately, an even greater amount of Qi Blood was absorbed by the acupoints throughout his body, which he had long since prepared.
Guided by his Heart Method, it was continuously channeled into his Life Pill.
After absorbing only about half of the Qi Blood from the Enhanced Blood Crystal, Xiao Chen felt that he had already reached the peak of the Middle Stage Golden Core realm.
Ahem!
It was a signal for Su Li not to interrupt him, no matter what.
Then, using the still-surging Qi Blood Power from the Blood Crystal, he began to charge the bottleneck to the Late-stage Golden Core in one go.
Ordinarily, this would have been an incredibly difficult task.
After all, a minor bottleneck in the Golden Core Stage was hardly less difficult than a major one.
However, when it came to the total amount of Qi Blood—the most crucial aspect for a Body Cultivator—Xiao Chen had long since far surpassed cultivators at his level. He even exceeded half of all Late-stage Golden Core cultivators.
Therefore, what was an insurmountable chasm for others was little more than a small ditch to him.
He gathered a massive amount of Qi Blood Power for momentum, and when he could no longer hold it back, he took a powerful leap.
The minor bottleneck was overcome with ease.
And so, on his path as a Body Cultivator, his cultivation was the first to advance, successfully breaking through to the Late-stage Golden Core.
