Chapter 185 Successful Evolution of Chaos
As Li Muyang fully activated the Daoist cultivation technique, the chaotic mist gradually returned to its original state, transforming back into chaotic energy!
The key point is not the chaotic mist, but the chaotic body!
Otherwise, let alone any cultivation techniques or mental formulas, he would have been assimilated the moment he came into contact with Chaos! It was only because Li Muyang's current body shared the same attribute as Chaos that he was immune to this assimilation effect.
During this process, Li Muyang suddenly discovered that the "Huangdi Neijing" (Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic), which he thought he had thoroughly understood, actually contained so many details he hadn't seen. Under the influence of the chaotic energy, Li Muyang gained new insights into this Daoist scripture! He had indeed been looking at the world from the bottom of a well!
That's not all! Even the "Yin Fu Jing," which was previously shrouded in mystery, now seems understandable!
From the outside, in the eyes of the Shennong Beast, countless golden characters were gathering around Li Muyang at this moment, one on the left and one on the right. Upon closer inspection, they were the "Huangdi Neijing" and the "Yinfujing"!
Not only that, Li Muyang's body seemed to have become a bottomless pit, forcefully drawing in the chaotic mist from the other side of the invisible wall! Several long streams of chaos surrounded Li Muyang, gradually enveloping him in a cocoon!
The golden words were completely absorbed into the chaotic flow, forming a cocoon together. The original gray cocoon became golden and shiny, with the contents of the two Daoist scriptures clearly engraved on it. Then, along with the cocoon, a stream of even purer chaotic water was formed, which was absorbed into Li Muyang's body!
This change left even the Shennong Beast momentarily stunned. His heritage and memories seemed to have never seen anything like this before… No! He had similar memories!
That memory is just too blurry!
It seems to be those...those...chaotic...beings?
"Did this accident actually allow this kid to learn the cultivation methods of chaotic beings?" Shennong Beast felt that he might have guessed the truth!
That's the only explanation!
As the continuous stream of chaotic mist was drawn to Li Muyang and transformed into part of the cocoon, the Shennong Beast suddenly realized that Li Muyang seemed to be getting further and further away from it, slowly moving towards the direction of the chaotic mist.
Upon closer inspection... ouch!
Holy crap! The Chaos Mist seems to have decreased?
Hmm! The Shennong Beast was shocked to discover that Li Muyang had actually absorbed less of the Chaos Mist! He and the cocoon had unknowingly moved closer to the diminishing Chaos Mist!
"Hiss... Didn't you say to try absorbing the chaotic mist in the shadow clone first? Why is there such a big commotion all of a sudden?" Shennong Beast was a little frightened, unsure whether to interrupt Li Muyang. He glanced at the time and decided to wait for him for a while.
The two are of one mind; if Li Muyang is truly in danger, the Shennong Beast will definitely sense it! It will awaken Li Muyang immediately! If all else fails, it will use its invulnerability ability!
If that doesn't work... Shennong Beast glanced at the black and white imperial star ring he was holding. Why couldn't he, Shennong Beast, also perform the eight-element fusion?!
Three more days passed, and the Chaos Mist had shrunk to a level visible to the naked eye. Shennong Beast sensed that Li Muyang seemed to have reached his limit and that his consciousness seemed to be affected, so it hurriedly cast a purification spell on him.
Fortunately, the authority of the Shennong Beast has not been broken. The Chaos Mist is not true chaos after all, and it can still be purified.
The cocoon and the ever-flowing chaotic mist were suddenly broken, and Li Muyang's figure slowly emerged. However, his hair had unknowingly turned completely silver-gray.
But as Li Muyang opened his eyes, his originally silver-gray fur instantly returned to its original black color.
"How are you? Are you alright?" Shennong Beast hurriedly and eagerly came over to ask with concern.
Li Muyang stretched his muscles and bones, glanced at the chaotic mist that had receded considerably, his eyes were very solemn, and then said to Shennong Beast: "I guess it's a success, but it seems there are still some risks. I didn't expect that absorbing this thing would be addictive! If I absorb too much at once, I won't be able to refine it completely, and it might affect my state of mind."
"Secondly, this chaotic energy... has fundamentally changed my habits. I'm afraid I'll find it much harder to cultivate with ordinary spiritual energy in the future. The absorption effect will be greatly reduced, and I can only absorb chaotic matter."
Hearing Li Muyang's words, and while simultaneously monitoring Li Muyang's physical and spiritual state, the Shennong Beast breathed a sigh of relief and said confidently, "It's alright! No big problem! I'm here! Just wake you up if anything goes wrong!"
Li Muyang nodded. Indeed, although it was difficult for him to wake up on his own right now, with the Shennong Beast watching over him, it wasn't a big problem. After a few more times, he would eventually be able to control himself.
Cultivation is definitely risky. Having finally found resources to nourish one's golden core, being timid and hesitant would be a mistake!
This frenzied absorption was well worth it! Li Muyang's golden core was instantly full!
"What the hell?" Shennong Beast was stunned upon hearing this. Did it mean that Li Muyang skipped all the minor realms of the Golden Core stage and went straight to the peak of the Golden Core stage?!
Originally, when the Golden Core absorbs a certain amount of energy, it needs to compress the energy once to create a gap in the Golden Core before it can absorb energy again. Under normal circumstances, the Golden Core can be compressed at least three times, and after three times, it will definitely be able to comprehend the true form of the Golden Core!
Yes, some people comprehend it after a breakthrough, like Li Muyang, while others comprehend it without needing to compress it three times.
Of course, there are also geniuses whose Golden Cores have a large capacity and can be compressed multiple times. Theoretically, the Golden Core can be compressed up to nine times!
Li Muyang was also a little surprised by this situation, but since things had come to this point, he couldn't very well make the Golden Core spit it out, could he? Besides, the Golden Core couldn't do such a thing!
"How many times did you compress it?" Shennong Beast was of course aware of the rules of this cultivation system. The specific compression situation still had to be considered on a case-by-case basis. It was not that a cultivator who compressed more times was necessarily stronger, nor was it that a cultivator who compressed less times was necessarily weaker.
Because compression varies from person to person, some cultivators have perseverance and strong willpower, and can compress well. Even if they can only compress three times, they may be stronger than some who compress four or more times.
Some people lack perseverance and compress the material a little less each time, compressing it four or more times. The result might be the same as someone else's result after compressing it three times.
Ultimately, the purpose of compression is to solidify the Golden Core and fill it with energy in its most concentrated state. The number of compressions is not important; what matters is the quality of the compression and the result of the compression, which is to perfect the Golden Core.
The prerequisite for breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage is to comprehend the true form of the Golden Core and achieve perfection in one's own Golden Core.
Li Muyang stroked his chin and calculated, saying, "If we count the previous compressions, I'm afraid... I compressed it nine times!"
The Shennong Beast chuckled and teased, "Congratulations, you've successfully condensed the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir!"
Li Muyang's lips twitched violently: "Where is this from?!"
Shennong Beast looked around and teased, "After absorbing so much chaotic mist, I thought you were on your way to breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm. I didn't expect you to stop at such a crucial moment."
"Didn't you wake me up?" Li Muyang rolled his eyes and complained, "But breaking through to the Golden Core stage like this feels like it would be too troublesome, so waking up at the right time."
"And..." At this point, a meaningful smile appeared on Li Muyang's face. This was a huge boost! The King's Sword appeared in his hand! He casually swung the sword!
This time, they really gave the planet a fringe!
Not only that, Li Muyang mobilized his own power, and a jade unicorn evolved from chaotic energy appeared vividly before him! With a light step, a huge crater was instantly and silently blasted into the sea! Countless seawater poured in! In an instant, a massive whirlpool was formed.
Turning around and facing the chaotic mist, the Jade Kirin roared and charged, instantly clearing a path! Even the chaos that devoured and assimilated all things in the world was dispersed!
Seeing this, Shennong Beast couldn't help but complain, "You've really become a Chaos Golden Core! In all my memories, there has never been a Golden Core cultivator stronger than you now!"
"Haha!" Li Muyang laughed triumphantly, waving his hand with great pride: "This attempt was worthwhile!"
It was indeed a very risky attempt. Chaotic matter does not belong to the world. Ordinary matter will be instantly devoured and assimilated once it touches it, with almost no chance of survival. It is an extremely dangerous existence.
However, chaos can also evolve into all things in the world, which is the fundamental reason why Li Muyang was able to absorb it for cultivation.
Li Muyang was very satisfied with the results! His strength had increased several times over compared to before!
Perhaps it's time to move on to the next mission!
That was the plan, but just as he got back and prepared to leave, Li Yunfei sent Li Muyang another message, asking him to come with him to pick up some guests.
To pick up guests?
Li Muyang blinked in bewilderment. What kind of guest was this? What kind of person was they! And he had to personally pick them up... cough cough!
They're floating!
It's no joke that chaos can affect one's state of mind!
Li Muyang truly felt that his mindset, which had been somewhat stubborn, domineering, and tyrannical, had shifted!
Although Bai Yuxiu and the others said that Li Muyang hadn't changed at all, he himself could naturally feel that his personality seemed to have become a bit... arrogant!
Fortunately, he didn't break through to the Golden Core stage all the way through, otherwise, there might have been real problems! Li Muyang didn't want to become an arrogant and conceited arrogance because of a breakthrough!
The main problem is that he hasn't reached that level yet! Even if he breaks through, he'll only be at the Nascent Soul stage. What are you so smug about?
Composing himself, Li Muyang picked up Xiaobai, took the Shennong Beast, and went to find his parents.
On another note, his own father asked him to go and entertain guests?
Who exactly are these guests?
Following the given address, Li Muyang got into a private car. Before getting in, he glanced at the license plate and thought, "Wow... this is probably no ordinary car!"
And look at this material, and this driver… Holy crap! Isn't this the kind of vehicle China uses to welcome foreign dignitaries?!
