284: Chapter 284 Azure Sky Core Formation, Rebuilding the Holy Blood Cult!

Upon hearing this, Shi Pan did not ask further.

The affairs of the Yao Race have always been simple: succeed and live, fail and die.

However, the Yao Race has been ailing for a long time now, and every Golden Core Great Yao is precious; naturally, Shi Pan hoped Bi Luo would succeed.

Mushou Mountain, Xunmu Forest.

Towering giant fungi blotted out the sky, and the forest was strangely quiet, without even a single bird.

Bi Luo walked deep into the forest, found a flat rock, and sat down cross-legged. He reached into his robes, took out the jade box containing the Green Wood Long-Life Qi, and placed it before him.

"Ancestor Cang Ya, please watch."

"The Legacy of the Green Ape Clan will absolutely not be severed in my hands."

He closed his eyes and began to adjust his internal breath.

The three trials of Core Formation: the Spiritual Qi trial, the heaven and earth qi, and shattering the core to recast it.

The first trial, the Spiritual Qi trial.

Bi Luo circulated the techniques of the Green Ape Clan, and the surrounding wood-attributed Spiritual Qi began to converge toward him, swallowing the mountains and rivers.

After half an hour, the Spiritual Qi gathered into a visible vortex, wrapping him entirely within it; the vortex grew larger and larger, spinning faster and faster.

Time intertwined, and the Spiritual Qi converged.

It is unknown how much time passed, but the many giant fungi in Xunmu Forest began to emit a faint fluorescence, echoing the vortex around Bi Luo.

Spiritual Qi poured back into his body.

Bi Luo's Meridians were stretched until they bulged, and green patterns appeared on the surface of his skin.

He gritted his teeth, guiding this massive amount of Spiritual Qi to continuously scour his Dantian.

Inside his Dantian, his True Essence was compressed to the limit, turning into a viscous liquid.

"Break!"

Bi Luo let out a low shout, and the liquid True Essence exploded with a roar, then quickly reformed, turning into an irregular solid core embryo.

For the Spiritual Qi trial, as long as one's Foundation is deep, the Breakthrough is easy.

Once the Spiritual Qi trial was broken, Bi Luo did not pause in the slightest.

He reached out and slapped the jade box.

The seal was lifted, and the Green Wood Long-Life Qi flew out, shaped like a small green snake, swimming in mid-air and exhaling rich wood luster.

This wisp of Qi was vibrant with life, yet it also exuded a domineering air.

Bi Luo opened his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

The second trial, swallowing and refining heaven and earth qi.

The Green Wood Long-Life Spiritual Qi entered his abdomen and exploded instantly; the massive Life Qi rushed into his limbs and bones, and Bi Luo's body began to change.

His fur grew wildly, its color becoming a deeper emerald green.

His bones made popping sounds, and his physique grew several feet taller, but this Life Qi was too dense—so dense that it became a poison.

His flesh began to lignify.

His fingers turned into branches, and his legs plunged into the ground, turning into roots.

This was the precursor to Dao-transformation.

Ancestor Cang Ya had fallen at this very step back then.

"Suppress!"

Bi Luo roared in anger, and a giant Green Ape phantom looked up to the sky and howled; he frantically mobilized the True Essence within his body to contend with that Wood Dao Origin.

Willpower became the only bargaining chip at this moment.

He could not die; if he died, there would be no one left in the Green Ape Clan to shoulder the burden. Qing Qi might eventually succeed, but that left him uneasy.

Two forces seesawed within his body.

The process of lignification was forcibly contained; on the surface of Bi Luo's skin, blue veins bulged, and sweat mixed with blood flowed down.

Time passed bit by bit.

The plants in Xunmu Forest, affected by the Life Qi he radiated, began to grow wildly.

Vines wrapped around the giant fungi, wild grass grew taller than a man, and the entire Xunmu Forest was vibrant with life as ancient trees grew frantically!

This duration lasted for a long time.

Until Bi Luo forgot everything, and when his Divine Soul was on the verge of dissipating, the heaven and earth qi within his body was finally completely refined.

The Green Wood Long-Life Qi completely merged with his Bloodline.

He opened his eyes, his pupils having turned a pure emerald green, and his aura surged accordingly; a huge Green Ape burst through the forest, suppressing thousands of plants and causing them to bow.

Next was shattering the core to recast it.

This step was not difficult for the Yao Race; one only needed to shatter the Yao core and then accommodate the Fusion of the heaven and earth Wood Dao Qi...

"Break!"

With Bi Luo's command, the Yao core within his body shattered, turning into pure Spiritual Qi, and he then guided the Fusion of heaven and earth qi to gather those fragments back together.

Compression, refinement.

Finally, it merged bit by bit, becoming round and smooth, turning into a dragon-eye-sized, entirely emerald green, eerie Golden Core!

On the surface of the Golden Core, there were natural wood patterns, radiating vibrant life.

"Boom!"

A Golden Core Realm pressure erupted from Bi Luo, sweeping through the entire Xunmu Forest and affecting the entire mountain range.

The plants in the forest, under this pressure, bowed in worship one after another.

Bi Luo raised his arms, and immediately the mountains and rivers shook incessantly, with countless plants and vines rising from the ground all over the mountains!

He held his arms high, feeling that vast power within his body.

"I have succeeded, I have succeeded!"

Bi Luo laughed wildly, causing the plants to sway incessantly; his Green Ape Clan finally had a Golden Core Great Yao!

From now on, his Green Ape Clan could also emulate the Bear, Crocodile, and Turtle tribes, expanding their clan's Bloodline and establishing multiple Bloodline Legacies.

For instance, this Mushou Mountain was very suitable as a breeding ground for his Green Ape Clan; turning it into his dominion in the future would not be bad at all.

On Zixiao Peak, thunder never ceased.

Shi Jian was immersed in the lightning pool, and upon sensing the fluctuations of Qi coming from the direction of Mushou Mountain, he clearly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Wood Dao Golden Core; this kid is quite tough."

Shi Pan walked up the mountain, his face full of joy.

"Old Ancestor, Bi Luo has succeeded!"

"Our clan has added another Golden Core Yao General; the prosperity of our clan is in sight!"

"I know. Let him stabilize his Realm, then come see me. The chess piece that is the Holy Blood Sect must not be lost."

"Yes, I will relay this message immediately."

Several months later, the lingering power of the Golden Core dissipated.

Bi Luo stabilized his Realm and came to Zixiao Peak to pay his respects. Even though he had already formed a Golden Core, when he saw Shi Jian, he still performed the kowtow ceremony, his attitude even more respectful than before.

"Your subordinate thanks the Old Ancestor for your fulfillment."

Shi Jian looked at him: "The Golden Core is formed; what are your plans next?"

Bi Luo looked up: "Reporting to the Old Ancestor. This subordinate wishes to return to the Liang Kingdom."

"The Liang Kingdom is a mess right now."

"It is precisely because it is a mess that it is easy to fish in troubled waters."

Bi Luo continued: "The three Righteous Path sects have just divided the assets of the Qingfeng Sect and are now busy digesting their Foundations."

"Taizhen Prefecture is a vacuum; this subordinate wants to revive the Holy Blood Sect."

Shi Jian highly approved of this matter.

In fact, even if Bi Luo did not propose it himself, he would sooner or later approach Bi Luo about this matter; this chess piece could not be lost.

"Very well, go ahead and do it."

"But prioritize your own safety above all else. The Liang Kingdom has returned to peace; if you can really stir up trouble and muddy these waters, that would be a great achievement!"

"Also, regarding the Holy Blood, you need not come to me for it in the future; just use your own Green Ape Clan's, or ask the Golden Crocodile for essence blood."

"This will also serve to cover your tracks; do not let your true identity leak."

"Yes, I will strictly follow the Old Ancestor's decree."

Bi Luo agreed, his mood incomparably cheerful. Now that he had achieved a Breakthrough to the Golden Core, he was determined to stir up a mighty demonic disaster in the Liang Kingdom!
