It begins.Thump!Kim Young-hoon grits his teeth, his eyes wide open.Shortly after.Thump, thump!Gang Qi surges from Kim Young-hoon's Inner Core, stimulating his heart.The direct stimulation to the heart is so intense that Kim Young-hoon clenches his teeth to endure the pain."Ha, haha.. It's thrilling."After stimulating his heart for a while, Kim Young-hoon forces a laugh and says,"Eun-hyun, you're really amazing. How did you endure this? Hahaha..!"I can't speak and just watch him silently.However, while continuously stimulating his heart, Kim Young-hoon did not just surrender to the pain.I look into his eyes.His eyes are connected to some kind of ecstasy.'Those eyes...'And that flow of intent.I recognize that expression.He would fall into that state of ecstasy whenever we spar.He is creating a new martial art.Thump, thump, thump...Changes begin to occur in Kim Young-hoon's Inner Core and internal energy.From the Inner Core in his lower dantian to the heart in his mi

"The Longevity Fruit...!"I extend my trembling hand towards the still young Longevity Tree.Soon after, Seo Ran rushes over and sees the Longevity Tree about to bear fruit."Th-this is...""Is it...?"Seo Ran looks at the Longevity Fruit with a serious gaze."It's the Longevity Fruit... indeed!""...Then...""But."Seo Ran's face remains tense."If the fruit hasn't fully ripened, consuming the Longevity Fruit won't significantly increase lifespan. The life force of heaven and earth contained in a Longevity Fruit activates only after it's fully ripened, extending lifespan considerably.""If it doesn't increase significantly, does it mean it might still extend life a little?""Yes, as far as I know, a Longevity Fruit in this state might extend lifespan by about half a year.""...Half a year."The difference between a fully ripened and an unripened fruit is too vast."Daoist Seo, how long do you think it will take for this Longevity Fruit to fully ripen?""The Longevity Fruit typically

The outer walls of Serving Command Palace burst open.As soon as I step outside Serving Command Palace, the dry air of the desert and sandstorms greet me.However, compared to the stench of blood inside Serving Command Palace, this feels almost fragrant.Chaang!Through the golden hole in the wall of Serving Command Palace that I have penetrated, a crimson mist of blood seeps out.At the center of the blood mist..There, Yuan Li walks out."How daring. Do you really think you can escape from me!"Paaat!Blood covers Yuan Li. He begins using his Flying Escape Technique.But I grip my Formless Sword and accelerate my thoughts.Having reached the Qi Building mid-stage, my base consciousness has grown significantly, making the acceleration much faster than before.Pabaat!I dash through the air like crazy.Faster than an average Core Formation cultivator!Yet Yuan Li, covered in blood, slowly closes in on me.'A monster-like Nascent Soul cultivator!'I grit my teeth, squeezing out all the

Im frozen, unable to do anything.This isn't just a metaphorical expression, but literally, the energy throughout my body hardens, and I lose strength independently of my will.[Let's see, let's see, let's see... Such clarity and transparency. And the clear heart essence that protrudes outward. Swinging it around, did you defeat the Core Formation demon beast using that? And what is this, a mental restraint?]Mad Lord.This crazy old man is fiddling with my head, examining me.[It's so strange. How can such a human being exist? What are you? Are you really human? Or a special kind of demon beast in human form?Hunting a Core Formation demon beasts due to the uniqueness of his consciousness, but the person himself isn't at the Core Formation stage. Just a mere mortal without any spiritual energy... Yet, the consciousness is at the late stage of Qi Building.]He looks at me curiously, examining me from every angle.'Damn it, why has this guy appeared already?'I ponder the reason.'If I

Rumble...Unexpectedly, Song Jin doesnt rush into an attack but observes me instead.[What are you? I've never heard of a human possessing a Demon Core, nor such bizarre techniques... It seems you know something about me.]A clear defensive stance!'It seems he can't fully sense me because I entered quietly without smashing the barrier as I did in my past life.'Compared to when he had absorbed all the ghostly energy of the Nether Crossing Ship and displayed Core Formation peak level prowess in my previous life, he currently hasn't absorbed the ships ghostly energy, so only a mid Core Formation stage aura is present."How could I not have heard of the infamous Black Ghost Valley? Let alone a Heavenly Being cultivator leading it!"[Heh, you mustve heard the Mad Lord killed me, are you mocking me?]Rumble!Song Jin gathers enough ghostly energy.He launches an attack.Screaach!Thousands of white bone skeletons rise like a tidal wave around me and surge towards me.I extend my Formless
