791 Golden Core Realm
In the Cultivation Room, Purple Moon City,
'Gulp'
Leo sat cross-legged and once he made sure that his mind power was at 100 percent, he took out one of the two High-level Golden Core Pills and directly swallowed it without any hesitation.
'Swoosh'
As soon as the pill entered his mouth, it melted as the powerful and violent moon energy released from it.
This violent moon energy entered Leo's Dantian and was completely filled.
As for the Golden Pillar lying in his dantian was also immersed in the violent moon energy.
'Swoosh'
After a few minutes, the sturdy foundation pillar in his dantian started melting like a candle and slowly transformed into an orb.
It was a core that every Golden Core Realm Cultivator had in their dantian and having it meant, they were officially the Golden Core Realm Cultivators.
However, the breakthrough was not completed yet because the orb was not formed completely.
'Swoosh'
It was changing shapes between spherical, triangle, and square along with many other regular and irregular shapes like water.
However, Leo closed his eyes and tried his best to condense that orb into a perfect core called Golden Core. The moment the Golden Core is formed and stabilises itself in the dantian, then the breakthrough is considered successful.
'Swoosh'
On the outside, the aura emitted was so powerful that even if a level 1 Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator was standing close by, he would be instantly killed by it.
However, outside the Cultivation Room, the environment was so peaceful that there were no powerful fluctuations whatsoever.
The reason why Leo rented the Cultivation Room to complete his breakthrough was that each one of these Cultivation Rooms was equipped with a low-level rank 3 Aura Cancellation Arrays.
As one of the Grade 8 cities that were close to the Lunar City, having the Cultivation Rooms with rank 3 Aura Cancellation Arrays was not considered rare.
Even though Leo's sect has some concealment arrays, they are all low-level rank 2 and if he breakthroughs into the Golden Core Realm, it would be known by everyone in the city.
Hence, Leo decided to complete his breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm before entering his city.
As for the time when Gallant wanted to break through to the Golden Core Realm, Leo had already thought of something else. So, he was not worried too much about it as he fully focused on his breakthrough.
Time continued to pass and the orbs in Leo's dantian continued to wiggle and change shapes.
However, Leo didn't give up or lose his hope as he was determined to transform the orb into a perfect core.
Even though a High-level Golden Core Pill gives a perfect Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivation a 100 percent chance of breaking through to the Golden Core Realm, it still comes down to how determined and focused the cultivator is.
If he was not focused or didn't put enough effort during the breakthrough, that cultivator would eventually fail in his breakthrough and get severely injured.
….
After six hours,
'Swoosh'
'Phew…I did it.'
After trying his best for more than six hours, Leo had finally formed the Golden Core in his dantian and at the same time, he even stabilized it in one go.
[Congratulations to the host for successfully forming a Golden Core and breaking through to the Golden Core Realm]
As he expected, the moment he finished his breakthrough, Leo received the announcement from [Heaven's Voice], making him reveal a slight smile on his face.
'Swoosh'
'Huh? What's happening?'
Before Leo could check out the rewards and his [Main Ascending Mission] of this world, Leo felt that his Golden Core was suddenly shaking.
[The ascender has triggered the 50 percent of breaking through to the Level 3 Golden Core Realm after consuming the High-level Golden Core Pill]
[However, since the ascender has yet to nourish his Golden Core, the breakthrough to the level 3 Golden Core Realm will be temporarily paused]
[Please nourish your Golden Core as soon as possible unless you want to have a cracked Golden Core in your dantian]
[As for the rewards and the [Main Ascending Misison], they will be given after the ascender has successfully stabilized his cultivation]
There was a series of announcements from the [Heaven's Voice], making the previous excitement of his breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm disappear and it was replaced with a serious look.
'It's time to nourish the pill.'
Without thinking much, Leo directly consumed the high-level Core Nourishing Pill.
'Swoosh'
Just like before, the violent moon energy appeared in Leo's body as it rushed towards his Golden Core.
However, before the violent moon energy touched the Golden Core, it became mild moon energy as it surrounded the Golden Core and started nourishing it.
'Swoosh'
In an instant, the shaking of the Golden Core disappeared and the Golden Core was nourished by 100 percent in intention.
'Another 100 percent will be nourished within a day and another 100 percent will be nourishing in five days.'
Leo recalled the information about the High-level Core Nourishing Pill and wondered, 'Should I temporarily hold my breakthroughs and nourish it for another 5 days.'
Since [Heaven's Voice] informed him that the breakthrough would be paused until his Golden Core was nourished, Leo wondered whether he should continue to pause it for a while before breaking through the multiple levels in a single go or not.
'The more my Golden Core Nourished, the higher the chances of my breaking into the Nascent Soul Realm will be and at the same time, the easier it will be.'
With that thought in mind, Leo decided to temporarily hold his breakthroughs.
Since [Heaven's Voice] was giving him a chance to temporarily pause his breakthroughs, Leo decided to use it and fully nourish his Golden Core.
With that thought in mind, Leo closed his eyes and focused on nourishing the Golden Core, hoping to speed up the nourishment effects from the Core Nourishing Pill that he consumed earlier.
Time continued to pass and in a flash, an entire day passed by from the time Leo had broken through to the Golden Core Realm as he received an announcement from [Heaven's Voice].
[The ascender has successfully nourished his Golden Core by 200 percent and increased your success rate of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm by 20 percent]
[Do you want to remove the breakthrough restriction on you?]
'No'
Without any hesitation, Leo directly rejected the offer given by [Heaven's Voice].
By nourishing the Golden Core Realm by 200 percent, his success rate of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm has been increased by 20 percent.
Moreover, adding to the 10 percent success rate from the High-level Golden Core Realm, currently, Leo had a total of 30 percent success rate in breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm.
'By nourishing it another 100 percent, I can increase the success rate to 40 percent. So, there is no need to hurry up and break through more levels in the Golden Core Realm.'
With a slight smile on his face, Leo stood up and stretched his body.
'Since it can passively nourish my Golden Core on its own for the next five days, there is no need to waste my time in the Cultivation Room anymore.'
After muttering that, Leo decided to leave the Cultivation Room and went to the Infinite Treasure Pavillion.
Of course, he didn't forget to hide his cultivation back to perfected Foundation Establishment Realm.
"Is there an auction coming soon?"
Since Leo has enough resources now along with spirit stones, he thought of buying some cultivation resources to merge them.
And the best way to get the rare cultivation resources was through the Auctions. So, using his Gold Membership Card, Leo enquired about it.
"Sorry, Sir. There are no auctions hosted by the Infinite Treasure Pavilion anytime soon."
However, Leo got an unwanted answer, making him shake his head in disappointment.
After that, he went around to check the items; however, he didn't like most of them and even the ones he liked, they were expensive.
Of course, if Leo wanted to buy them, he could have bought them; however, he felt it was not worth buying.
Hence, he bought lots of fragments of the low-level Moon Stones from the Infinite Treasure Pavilion along with other stores near it before returning to the Cultivation Room.
'It's merging them.'
After returning, Leo didn't waste any time as he merged all 50 slots of the Fundamental Merge.
10 mid-level spirit stones and 10 high-level spirit stones.
10 low-level moon stones from the fragments he bought and 10 mid-level moon stones and Leo used [Sureshot] to get one extra mid-level moon stone.
As for the last 10 slots, Leo merged some rank 2 pills before resting the remaining day.
….
The next day,
On the last day of his rented time for the Cultivation Room as soon as he woke up, Leo repeated the same merging session and thought of upgrading his [Fundamental Merge] to level 5.
The requirements to upgrade the [Fundamental Merge] to level 5 were to have 500 low-level moon stones, 100 mid-level moon stones and one high-level moon stone.
Previously, Leo was lacking some of the mid-level moon stones and after today's merging session, Leo had finally met the requirements which were enough to upgrade his talent again.
'It was only an upgrade from level 4 to level 5 and the requirements have become very difficult. If not for the Sect Leader's generous rewards, I would not have been able to upgrade the talent any time soon.'
With a slight smile on his face, Leo continued to process, 'After this upgrade, I will be left with 400 low-level moon stones along with many fragments of the low-level moon stones.'
