Wild Dogs

With the infusion of spiritual energy, Yang Fan finally began to officially advance from the peak of the late Foundation Establishment stage to the Core Formation stage.

At this moment, he felt as if he were in a vast ocean.

His consciousness was like a small boat adrift on this vast ocean.

The inner demons had appeared, and they were much stronger than he had imagined.

The bead that Xiao Ling gave him had some effect, but the effect was not obvious.

This was the first time Yang Fan had experienced a mental ordeal, and this spiritual tribulation caused him immense suffering.

"Damn it, this is going to be a real problem."

He gritted his teeth desperately trying to suppress these inner demons, but the surrounding inner demons surged and kept coming at him.

These inner demons were so intense that Yang Fan could barely breathe.

He was caught in a dilemma; could it be that all inner demons were this intense?

He had imagined that the inner demon tribulation would be immense, but he never expected it to be this immense.

A moment later, Yang Fan suddenly opened his eyes.

Xiao Ling, who was standing to the side, immediately looked over.

"How is it? Are there any problems?"

But when she saw Yang Fan's eyes clearly, she realized that something was wrong.

At this moment, Yang Fan's eyes were empty and chaotic, completely devoid of any subjective consciousness.

Xiao Ling instantly realized the problem; the boy was now trapped and unable to escape.

In her haste, she raised her hand and gently waved it above Yang Fan's head, trying to help him.

A surge of spiritual energy entered Yang Fan's body, but at this moment, the spiritual energy within his body was running rampant, trying to break down his meridians.

At the critical moment, Xiao Ling struck down with her palm, temporarily stabilizing his spiritual energy.

Yang Fan's condition stabilized considerably, and then he slowly closed his eyes, continuing to tough out the inner demon tribulation.

It wasn't that Yang Fan's mind and consciousness were weak, but rather that this inner demon tribulation was far stronger than the ordinary Core Formation inner demon tribulation.

The cultivation method he had been practicing was changed temporarily, which affected his fundamental abilities.

Although Xiao Ling had tried various methods to solidify Yang Fan's foundation during this period, she was unable to improve him in a short time.

Under these circumstances, the inner demons that Yang Fan was enduring were naturally incredibly turbulent.

If it's just a mental ordeal, Yang Fan could persevere by just toughing it out.

However, during this time, his spiritual energy had become somewhat disordered, and if this continued, he would most likely explode and die.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Xiao Ling intervened and regulated the spiritual energy within his body, preventing any future problems.

Once the spiritual energy is in order, Yang Fan can wholeheartedly focus his divine sense on these inner demons and tribulations.

For a time, Yang Fan was entangled with his inner demons.

Seeing that Yang Fan's eyes were still closed, Xiao Ling gritted her teeth in desperation and took out a jade pendant from her bosom.

She murmured to herself and pressed the jade pendant to Yang Fan's forehead.

A faint blue light shone from the jade pendant and swept across Yang Fan's head.

The cyan light quickly entered Yang Fan's body, and after a moment, Yang Fan felt his consciousness suddenly expand several times.

The struggle against inner demons also became somewhat easier.

Xiao Ling tapped Yang Fan's head several more times.

With Xiao Ling's help, Yang Fan's consciousness was immediately locked in a fierce battle with the inner demon tribulation.

At first, his consciousness was at a disadvantage.

However, with Xiao Ling's support, he gradually became evenly matched with the inner demon tribulation.

However, it is still quite difficult to completely overcome the inner demons.

Thus, Yang Fan's consciousness and inner demon tribulation became completely entangled, making it difficult to separate them for a time.

Xiao Ling waited impatiently outside for almost ten days.

Ten days have passed, and Yang Fan still hasn't been able to completely overcome his inner demons.

The golden core within his body was about to take shape under the gathering of spiritual energy, but because it could not overcome the tribulation of inner demons, the golden core kept gathering and dispersing, repeating the same cycle over and over again.

Xiao Ling was fully aware of the changes within Yang Fan's body, and seeing that Yang Fan was still unable to condense his golden core, she finally became somewhat anxious.

They went to great lengths to help Yang Fan break through to the Core Formation stage.

Only in this way can we unlock more secret realms and obtain more treasures.

If Yang Fan cannot break through, all of this will be in vain.

Xiao Ling took a deep breath and paced back and forth in front of Yang Fan. After a moment, she gritted her teeth.

It seems that we have no other choice but to use that method.

She slowly raised her fingers, her fingertips gently touching Yang Fan's brow, and then closed her eyes as well.

Xiao Ling's consciousness entered Yang Fan's body through her fingertips.

Since Yang Fan couldn't suppress his inner demons on his own, she had no choice but to find a solution herself.

At this moment, Yang Fan, who was fighting against his inner demons, was already exhausted.

For the past ten days or so, he has struggled bitterly amidst the turbulent waves of inner demons.

The inner demon tribulation was far more powerful than he had imagined.

At first, he was like a small boat in a vast ocean, barely able to hold on.

However, as the inner demons kept changing, he gradually fell into a disadvantageous position again.

Illusions constantly arise during the tribulations of inner demons.

In some of the hallucinations, his entire family died violently.

In some of the illusions, he was subjected to various forms of abuse and bullying.

In some illusions, he became a high and mighty, omnipotent Nascent Soul cultivator, while other cultivators prostrated themselves on the ground.

Yang Fan could clearly recognize that he was caught in a mental demonic tribulation and knew how to resist those painful illusions.

But those arrogant and unruly illusions almost made him addicted to them.

Just when Yang Fan was about to give up, a ray of light shone from the side.

He hurriedly turned his head and saw Xiao Ling walk in from within his inner demon tribulation.

"What's going on? Why haven't I been able to suppress my inner demons yet?"

Yang Fan stared at Xiao Ling in disbelief, pointing at her with trembling hands.

"How did you get in?"

Xiao Ling glared at him, annoyed.

"Don't you know why I came in? You can't withstand the tribulation of your inner demons right now, so only I can help you."

She looked ahead, and her expression changed slightly after she saw the enormous monster clearly.

Why is your inner demon so powerful?

Yang Fan sighed.

"I don't know either. I thought this inner demon tribulation would be easy to withstand."

Xiao Ling nodded.

"Normally, inner demon tribulations are indeed difficult to resist, but they wouldn't be as strong as yours."

"Your inner demon tribulation is probably more than ten times stronger than that of an ordinary Core Formation cultivator."

"To put it bluntly, it's a miracle that you've managed to hold on this long. If it were me back then, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to withstand it either."

Yang Fan's heart stirred, and his expression immediately became excited.

"Could it be that the Palace Master can help me overcome this inner demon tribulation?"

Xiao Ling glared at him, annoyed.

"I didn't want to help you in the first place, but now I have no choice."

"Come with me, let's work together to destroy this inner demon."

At this moment, the inner demon within Yang Fan's body has transformed into a gigantic monster, eyeing the two of them menacingly.

Xiao Ling prepared to strike and kill the inner demon in front of her.

But the moment she made eye contact with the monster, the monster in front of her immediately changed.
