What’s the Nascent Soul?

The sect master of the Scorching Sun Sect even summoned sixty-four flying swords in one go. They flew through the air like a school of sardines and formed a dazzling sword array around the middle-aged man in black.

As the Medicine Immortal Valley’s representative, Reverend Dan Yang naturally joined in the battle.

However, compared to the cool magical powers of the leaders of the various sects, he did not seem as conspicuous.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

In the great Shenluo Formation, the terrifying battle changed the color of heaven and earth.

The Golden Dragon roared, and the talismans exploded. Sword shadows and sword lights crisscrossed.

However, in the face of the big moves of the leaders of the various sects, the black-robed middle-aged man did not show any signs of decline. Instead, he became more brave as the battle progressed.

What was even more terrifying was that the black-robed middle-aged man had a daughter who was a burden.

“Hahaha, you want to stop me with this little ability?”

The black-robed middle-aged man’s body was surrounded by a monstrous blood aura. A familiar bronze bell was spinning above his head, sending out layers of air waves, easily resisting the attacks of the leaders of the various sects.

It was obvious that the black-robed middle-aged man’s Blood Soul Bell was countless times more powerful than Xu Lu’s.

The leaders of the various sects felt that it was getting more and more difficult as they fought. They clearly did not expect this demon to have such terrifying strength.

“Today, this king is lucky to obtain a cracking pill and is in a good mood. I won’t waste any more time with you!” The black-robed middle-aged man laughed out loud in the face of the tight encirclement. “When I transform into my core, I will definitely pay you a visit!”

After saying that, a blood-colored torrent that covered the sky whizzed out from behind him.

The blood-red waves that were like roaring mountains and roaring seas instantly crushed the sword array of the sect master of the Scorching Sun Sect. It swallowed the chain of talismans and dozens of Golden Dragon shadows.

Under the protection of his master, Chi Yao Zhenren, Cheng Xu was dumbfounded.

“Is this a Jindan level battle?”

At the side, Chi Yao Zhenren watched with a grave expression. “What a terrifying demon. With such a baleful aura and blood qi, I wonder how many living beings have been harmed.”

At the same time, under the impact of the black-robed middle-aged man’s blood qi, the sect leaders had already begun to retreat.

The blood qi quickly broke through the great Divine Net Formation.

“Damn it, what’s the background of this devil!”

The Divine Gaze Hall master’s face was pale, and blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth.

The other sect leaders were not in a good state either.

The weaker ones, Reverend Dan Yang, was even swallowed by the blood qi wave, his life or death was unknown.

“Senior brother?!”

When Chi Yao Zhenren saw this, his eyes widened and his mid-stage Golden Core Aura instantly spread out. Then, under Cheng Xu’s astonished gaze, he angrily spat out a familiar incantation.

“Hahaha, you think you can stop me?”

As the middle-aged man in the black robe circulated his demonic technique, his entire body turned scarlet red. He looked like a demon that had come from hell.

Seeing the leaders of the orthodox sects being repelled by the blood qi waves, he laughed arrogantly and was about to leave with his daughter.

“Quickly stop him!”

Daoist Cloudrise roared in anger. He turned into a sword light and pursued them, but he was easily blocked by a wave of blood qi.

Just as the black-robed man was about to laugh and leave, the entire world suddenly changed.

A golden “Qi” character that was even larger than the entire mountain appeared above the peak, and the terrifying pressure it exuded made everyone’s faces change.

The middle-aged man in the black robe looked at the big characters in the sky behind him in shock. Before he could figure out what was going on, the magic power and blood qi in his meridians began to wreak havoc, and the accumulated evil qi in his body instantly rushed out.

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

Immediately after, the middle-aged man’s meridians exploded one after another like firecrackers, and clouds of blood mist burst out.

The black-robed middle-aged man, who had been laughing arrogantly seconds ago, suddenly fell into a state of qi deviation. His terrifying aura instantly plummeted.

Reverend Dan Yang, who had broken free from the blood qi waves, looked down at Reverend Chi Yao in pleasant surprise.

“Haha, I knew that with Junior Brother’s attainments in the Dao of medicine, you would definitely be able to understand the medicinal mantra!”

Looking at the four sect leaders led by Daoist Cloudrise, they were dumbfounded and had an expression of disbelief.

“Chi… Fellow Daoist Chi Yao?”

The sect master of the Scorching Sun Sect widened his eyes in disbelief as if he had seen a ghost.

Daoist Cloudrise was even more flabbergasted, not daring to believe his eyes.

It couldn’t be helped. Was this still the Aurous Core stage cultivator they knew who could fight against five weaklings?

If he was a weakling, what were they?

“Quick, that demon has already gone berserk. Don’t let him escape!”

The Divine Gaze Hall master, who had calmed down, quickly reminded everyone to press on with their victory.

The black-robed middle-aged man was already in a panic. He looked at Chi Yao Zhenren in surprise and didn’t think twice before activating blood escape. He burned his blood essence and turned into a scarlet space vortex, escaping with Xu Lu.

Seeing the devil escape, the various sect leaders cried out in pity.

“Damn it, he still managed to escape!” The sect master of the Scorching Sun Sect couldn’t help but swear.

“It’s fine.” Daoist Master Tayun heaved a sigh of relief. “With the state that the demon was in just now, coupled with the fact that he was willing to burn his blood essence to use the blood escape technique, his cultivation must have fallen to the late-stage of the Golden Core Realm at the very least. If he couldn’t control his qi deviation, he might even fall to the mid-stage of the Golden Core Realm!”

Everyone expressed their agreement.

Although the process was not quite what they had expected, the results had met their expectations. In fact, it was even better than they had expected.

Nut then again, just now, fellow Daoist Crimson Radiance…

Very quickly, the leaders of the various sects floated down one after another, their strange expressions focused on Chi Yao Zhenren.

Cheng Xu was still immersed in the shock brought about by the qi summoning mantra and was unable to extricate himself.

In comparison, his own qi summoning mantra was simply too weak. From this, it could be seen how big the gap between him and his master Chi Yao Zhenren was in the Dao of medicine refinement.

“Fellow Daoist Crimson Red, what was that move you used just now?” Daoist Master Tayun and the others asked with lingering fear.

“It’s just an inheritance left behind by my sect’s ancestral master. I’m fortunate enough to have comprehended the profoundness within.” Facing everyone’s shocked and appreciative gazes, Chi Yao Zhenren was actually a bit unaccustomed to it.

He had been a bystander for half his life, when had he ever been valued so much?

“I didn’t expect your sect to have such a powerful inheritance.” The hall master of the Divine Gaze Hall sighed with emotion.

“Yeah, it’s just a mantra, but it can make the demon’s magic power chaotic on the spot and cause him to go crazy. It’s really powerful!”

Chi Yao zhenren waved his hand and explained, “My incantation isn’t that powerful. It’s mainly because that devil’s body has accumulated too much baleful qi. My incantation just happened to trigger a backlash from his baleful qi.”

Daoist Cloudrise nodded slightly. “Even so, Daoist Crimson Red is still very powerful. It seems that our little Southern Heaven’s orthodox path will have another great general in the future.”

“Don’t, don’t, don’t. I only have two axes.”

Chi Yao Zhenren was very clear about his own strength.

Although the power of the medicinal mantra was astonishing, just two moves of the medicinal mantra were not enough to make him a true expert.

“You’re too humble, fellow Daoist.”

The two sides bragged about each other back and forth, and Cheng Xu was getting a little impatient.

It just so happened that the people present were all Jindan stage big shots of various sects, so he asked curiously, “That’s right, master, what did you mean by transforming into a pill?”

Hearing this, all the big shots present were somewhat confused, including Chi Yao Zhenren.

“Core Formation refers to the process of breaking through to the next big realm after the peak of Jindan. Cultivators call it the Core Formation stage.” Chi Yao Zhenren explained.

“Core Formation stage?” Cheng Xu scratched his ears and cheeks. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. “Isn’t the Nascent Soul stage after the Golden Core stage? ”

“Yuanying stage?” Daoist Master Tayun and the others were stunned. “What’s a Nascent Soul?”

From everyone’s reaction, it could be seen that they had never heard of the concept of the Nascent Soul stage.

“How should I put this…” Cheng Xu organized his words. “It’s just that I learned from an ancient book that there are several major realms in the path of immortal cultivation. They are the Qi Cultivation stage, Foundation Establishment stage, Golden Core stage, Nascent Soul stage, Soul Formation stage, Form Synthesis stage, and so on.”

The big shots looked at each other in confusion. “There’s such a saying?”

“What do you mean by the Soul Formation stage and the Form Synthesis stage?” The sect leader of the Scorching Sun Sect looked at the crowd in confusion. “Fellow Daoists, have you all heard of it?”

Everyone shook their heads in confusion.

This time, Cheng Xu was completely dumbfounded.

Good Lord, starting from the Nascent Soul stage, the realms after that started to be strange.
