Cultivation Starting from Full Talent-Chapter 672 - 670 Supreme Path Body: True Yang Chi Xiao Body!
Chapter 672: Chapter 670 Supreme Path Body: True Yang Chi Xiao Body!
After the patterns on the life plate extended slightly, they seemed to halt, and then everything fell into silence.
"Ancestor, rest assured."
A Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator surnamed Zhang said, "Although the life plates of Zhang Naiqian and Zhang Puyu show slight cracks, they remain intact overall. This indicates that their Divine Souls have not dispersed, and their Nascent Souls are complete. Most likely, their physical bodies have suffered severe injuries."
"Severe injuries..."
Zhang Qinghe frowned and said, "I will enter Fierce Sun Sky Pool myself to rescue them."
"You mustn’t."
Not far away, Long Xian’er said, "Qinghe, the entrance to Fierce Sun Sky Pool is already sealed. Forcing your way in now will trigger a backlash from the grand formation, and it will disrupt the cultivation of those inside the Sky Pool. You must consider this carefully."
"Do you care about the safety of Zhang Naiqian and the others?" Zhang Qinghe’s gaze scrutinized her.
"As Sect Master, naturally, I care."
Long Xian’er replied, "And the life of Long Jiyu, do you care about that as well?"
Zhang Qinghe said nothing and did not respond.
...
Inside Fierce Sun Sky Pool.
Ning Daoran returned to Qilin Fire Cave.
Within Spirit Garden Cave Heaven, Long Jiyu’s soul continued to furiously curse at the Nascent Souls of Zhang Naiqian, Zhang Puyu, and the others.
Ning Daoran sat cross-legged, taking out the Storage Bags and treasures of Zhang Naiqian and the others one by one. Among them, there were only two items that truly caught Ning Daoran’s attention.
The first was Zhang Naiqian’s Life-bound Item, a top-grade Spirit Treasure—the Fire Dragon Treasure Cauldron.
The second was a set of six Fiery Sun Flying Needles, all mid-grade Spirit Treasures. They were crafted from an unknown metal, exceptionally sharp, and could launch silent, stealthy attacks that were nearly impossible to defend against.
Had he not used the Class A Paperfolk as a substitute, Ning Daoran might have truly been ambushed by those Fiery Sun Flying Needles.
In the Cultivation World, hidden weapon-type treasures were generally considered low-tier. However, mid-grade Spirit Treasure-level hidden weapons commanded serious attention. Thus, Ning Daoran refined the Fiery Sun Flying Needles alongside the Fire Dragon Treasure Cauldron, then continued quietly cultivating in the Qilin Fire Cave, nurturing his foundation, and further tempering his cultivation with the abundant Outer Heaven Fire Essence Qi of the Sky Pool.
Seven years passed in the blink of an eye.
Seven years later, deep within the Qilin Fire Cave.
A boiling, molten pool continued emanating thick Outer Heaven Fire Essence Qi, as though the meteor that created the Sky Pool had never cooled.
Bubbles "plopped, plopped" to the surface, and a figure slowly emerged from the magma—it was none other than Ning Daoran, who had been cultivating within the molten pool for a full seven years!
"Are you certain the time is now?"
He lowered his head and asked.
"I’m sure."
From within Spirit Garden Cave Heaven, Ning Xiaogui’s voice echoed, "Brother Ran, I feel my foundation has accumulated enough. Any further accumulation risks erupting and damaging my body. It must be now—condense the Nascent Soul here."
"This place is rich in Outer Heaven Fire Essence Qi. As a wood-water Spiritual Beast... condensing the Nascent Soul here will not provide the abundance of essence qi suited to your natural attributes. How about waiting for me to leave Fierce Sun Sky Pool, and I’ll find a good water-site for your condensation?"
"No need."
Ning Xiaogui transformed into a young man dressed in a green robe and stepped forward, smiling. "Brother Ran, you’re overthinking. My foundation is already sufficient. At this stage, external conditions matter little—abundant spiritual energy is all I need. The spiritual energy here in Fierce Sun Sky Pool is so dense that it’s more than enough."
"If that’s the case, so be it."
Ning Daoran nodded. "Then proceed to condense your Nascent Soul."
As he spoke, he opened Zhang Naiqian’s Storage Bag, retrieved a ready-made Nascent Condensing Pill, and tossed it over. "Xiaogui, go ahead with the condensation. Old Lu, Little Bai, and Little Blackie will assist in protecting you!"
"Understood!"
Ning Xiaogui sat cross-legged and swallowed the Nascent Condensing Pill with a "gulp." In the next instant, a vibrant azure Spirit Cloud soared skyward, rapidly enveloping the entire Fierce Sun Sky Pool!
Ning Daoran silently admired the sight—this Green Water Turtle’s phenomenon during Nascent Soul condensation was truly impressive, even comparable to Little Bai!
At the thought, he glanced at Little Blackie nearby.
Little Blackie scratched his head, visibly embarrassed.
Originally, his cultivation had surpassed that of the Green Water Turtle, yet now he lagged behind, still unable to condense his Nascent Soul. How could he not feel ashamed?
...
Outside Fierce Sun Sky Pool.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~"
Streams of tunneling light flashed across the sky, quickly converging outside the Sky Pool.
"What’s happening?"
Zhang Qinghe swept his sleeve, his gaze filled with wonder. "Why is there such a grand phenomenon of Nascent Soul condensation within the Sky Pool? Huang Xianyu, you oversee all the veins within the Sky Pool—do you know who is responsible for this?"
"Reporting to Elder, I am unaware."
Huang Xianyu cupped his fists and replied, "Although I am tasked to guard Fierce Sun Sky Pool, it is not a treasure weapon—my insight is limited to the outer regions. This Spirit Cloud originates from the core depths of the Sky Pool and contains the spiritual energy of a demon beast. Most likely, a Spiritual Beast is condensing its Nascent Soul. However, which cultivator’s Spiritual Beast it belongs to remains unknown."
"Oh?"
Zhang Qinghe murmured, "Naiqian’s Jade Crystal Beast, a dual fire-water Spiritual Beast, is nearing its time for Nascent Soul condensation. Could it be... the beast itself?"
Another Golden Core Late Stage cultivator remarked, "Aside from Zhang Naiqian, no one else in this visit to Fierce Sun Sky Pool has such profound cultivation."
"Indeed."
Zhang Qinghe said, "The cracked lines on the life plates of Naiqian and the others have yet to heal on their own, suggesting that their injuries are still not fully recovered. I remain somewhat worried about their situation."
"Elder need not worry. Zhang Naiqian, Zhang Puyu, and the other two are the future pillars of our Divine Fire Sect—promising young talents destined for greatness. Fortune must favor them; they will surely be fine."
"That would be good."
Zhang Qinghe’s gaze grew resolute, but his heart remained troubled.
Huang Xianyu’s expression stayed calm as he turned and departed for his Cave Mansion, showing little interest in conversing further with Zhang Qinghe or the other Zhang family cultivators.
Days later.
Ning Xiaogui successfully condensed his Nascent Soul, adding another Nascent Soul Stage expert to the ranks of Ning Family Army!
...
Time flowed like water, the cultivation days within Fierce Sun Sky Pool passing swiftly without notice.
Ten years later, within Qilin Fire Cave.
"Boom~~~"
Suddenly, a pool of magma surged upward, bursting forth in eruption. An overwhelming force churned at the depths of the molten pit, while amidst the blazing energy, an enormous Dragon Demon Dharma Form spiraled and danced!
After ten years of cultivation, at long last, Ning Daoran’s Dragon Demon Heart Scripture had reached the thirtieth layer!
"Hu..."
With a sharp exhale and shout, the surrounding magma exploded to all directions. Ning Daoran stepped forward with a single foot, and immediately, the world around him transformed into a realm of isolation, with Dragon Demons wildly writhing amidst this profound realm!
Dubbed Dragon Demon Dojo, this manifestation only appears after the Dragon Demon Heart Scripture reaches the thirtieth layer!
Within the boundaries of Dragon Demon Dojo, opponents’ cultivation would face extreme suppression, while Ning Daoran’s cultivation would gain approximately half a realm’s enhancement!
"Hu~~ This feeling..."
Spreading his arms, Ning Daoran allowed the heavy Heaven and Earth Essence Qi to flood into his body, causing his entire flesh to crackle loudly!
A decade’s cultivation repaid in this instant!
Uncountable streams of Outer Heaven Fire Essence Qi awakened within his meridians, coursing endlessly. Meanwhile, the Fierce Sun Divine Tree within his Divine Soul World had unfurled completely, merging deeply with his flesh. Now, Ning Daoran’s network of veins and blood vessels resembled the intricate underground root structure of a giant divine tree—firm and thriving!
"Swish..."
Deep within, as though a cocoon membrane was being melted away by internal fierce flames, an unimaginable torrent of mana surged into his body!
Finally—a breakthrough!
At this moment, both his Dharma Body and overall cultivation ascended, stepping into Nascent Soul Middle Stage and Mixed Element Middle Stage simultaneously!
Concurrently, within his Divine Soul World, the Fierce Sun Divine Tree swayed as strands of True Yang Immortal Fire circled around it, continually adhering to the tree’s surface like an Immortal Fire Cocoon.
Under its radiance, the two proxies of his supreme Divine Soul—the chaotic Nascent Soul and Dragon Demon Martial Infant—sat opposite each other. Suddenly, both were covered with similar Immortal Fire Cocoons, astonishing them as they stood and inspected their forms. Then, they danced ecstatically in joy.
This..."
Ning Daoran mused inwardly, utterly stunned.
The Immortal Fire Cocoon enveloping the Fierce Sun Divine Tree and his dual Nascent Souls was incredibly dense, akin to a protective barrier with an extraordinary ability to resist Divine Thought Attacks!
In other words, his resistance against Divinity Transformation Stage Divine Thought Strikes was now greatly enhanced. No longer would he be helpless as before, vulnerable to such paralyzing attacks.
This revelation—an unparalleled fortune!
"No wait..."
He abruptly grew astonished again—his flesh had undergone profound transformations as well. His Inner World no longer reflected Nine Suns Soaring, but instead, resembled a majestic Crimson Sky hovering in suspension!
Far superior True Yang power roamed his meridians like torrential waves. Ning Daoran compared his current state to before, finding it akin to heaven and earth—worlds apart!
And the most exhilarating change... his Spirit Root had evolved!
Now, he possessed a Spirit Root extraordinarily attuned to both fire and wood attributes, reaching unparalleled first-grade status!
A First-grade Wood and Fire Spirit Root!
If word of this spread, it would be utterly earth-shattering!
"I..."
Taking a deep breath, he gazed at his own flesh with immense satisfaction. "I’m no longer the waste of a weak Spirit Root..."
"Congratulations, My Lord!"
From nearby, Little Bai emerged from Spirit Garden Cave Heaven, smiling. "My Lord, it’s not only your Spirit Root changing. At this moment, your Dharma Body has reached Great Success. If my guess is correct, your current body is no longer the Ding Fire Spirit Body, but rather the legendary Supreme Path Body—the True Yang Chi Xiao Body, a rare inheritance of the Fire Attribute Path!"
"True Yang Chi Xiao Body..."
Ning Daoran furrowed his brows and introspected his own flesh.
His inner form glowed crimson, with golden patterns interweaving between his blood, bones, and veins, truly extraordinary. In this state, his cultivation speed and proficiency in mastering cultivation techniques vastly outstripped anything from before. Additionally, his comprehension ability had undergone a monumental leap, truly making him worthy of being called a peerless genius!
Regarding the True Yang Chi Xiao Body...
He recalled reading about it in ancient texts—it was said to be a Supreme Path Body. Cultivators who achieved it were destined to reach at least the Mahayana Realm!
He felt a surge of emotion.
Through meticulous caution and relentless effort, he had finally attained this Supreme Path Body. It had not been easy!
...
This secluded cultivation in Fierce Sun Sky Pool yielded immensely satisfying results.
With his Dragon Demon Heart Scripture advancing to the thirtieth layer and obtaining Dragon Demon Dojo, combined with his rise to Nascent Soul Middle Stage and Mixed Element Middle Stage, along with the emergence of True Yang Chi Xiao Body and the Immortal Fire Cocoon for his dual Nascent Souls and Fierce Sun Divine Tree, he achieved exceptional fortune, rendering Divine Thought Strikes powerless momentarily. The rewards were abundant!
"It’s time for us to leave."
Ning Daoran looked outward. "Many matters await my attention~~~"
