Wild Dogs

But upon closer reflection, he felt somewhat discouraged.

Xiao Ling clearly had no intention of letting him out; before reaching the Heavenly Mystery Palace, he would most likely remain in this secret room.

He was somewhat distressed, and after a long while, he shook his head slightly.

Well, let's just take it one step at a time and see what happens. What if Xiao Ling releases him ahead of time?

Then, take the opportunity to approach Luo Changhe, tell him the matter, and reach an alliance.

He clenched his fists, after all, he had successfully advanced to the Core Formation stage.

Once you become a Core Formation cultivator, you'll have even more confidence.

He took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged again, and prepared to regulate his breathing and meditate to stabilize his state of mind.

After temporarily putting aside the matter of the cursed seal, he continued to examine himself internally, wanting to see the condition of his golden core.

He was extremely concerned about the Golden Core, and his Five Elements Hidden Spirit was actually weaker than that of a mixed spiritual root.

With this kind of physique, if one can absorb chaotic energy, one would naturally be considered to have a first-class spiritual root.

But in this world today, there is very little primordial chaos left.

To be honest, if it weren't for the small cauldron, he wouldn't even be able to draw spiritual energy into his body.

Thinking of this, Yang Fan couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

He focused his divine sense on his golden core, where a golden core radiating multicolored light was slowly rotating three inches below his navel.

As the golden core rotated, the surrounding spiritual energy immediately surged in and was absorbed into it.

Although Yang Fan only had a hidden spiritual root, he had already formed a golden core, so even with a hidden spiritual root, he could still absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.

He glanced down and saw a small cauldron floating in mid-air not far below the Golden Core.

Looking at the small cauldron, a thought suddenly came to his mind.

Previously, putting various things into the small cauldron resulted in improvements. If I put my own golden core into it, would there be any changes as well?

His golden core was formed after his Five Elements Hidden Spiritual Root was enhanced, so it was weaker than that of a normal golden core cultivator.

It's because his golden core needs chaotic energy to condense; if it's condensed using ordinary spiritual energy, the effect will naturally be much worse.

Upon thinking of this, his heart pounded wildly. A moment later, he moved his divine sense and controlled the golden core to slowly descend into the small cauldron below.

The closer he got to the small cauldron, the more he could feel a force seemingly pulling him from within it.

After a while, the golden elixir finally flew inside.

"You absolutely must succeed!"

He couldn't help but clench his fists.

A moment later, he felt the small cauldron vibrate slightly, followed by a sharp pain from his body.

The surrounding spiritual energy seemed to have gone out of control, surging wildly into his body.

"What, there are still new changes?"

He stared anxiously at the small cauldron, desperately trying to stop it, but the surrounding spiritual energy grew stronger and stronger.

More and more spiritual energy surged in like a tidal wave, continuously pouring into his golden core.

At this moment, he was already at his breaking point.

Damn it.

He clenched his fists, desperately trying to resist the invasion of spiritual energy.

However, the surrounding spiritual energy was increasing, surging wildly into his body and forming vortexes around his golden core, which were constantly accelerating their rotation.

Yang Fan had no idea what would happen next; he could only desperately try to resist the corrosive influence of this spiritual energy.

However, as more and more spiritual energy poured in, even he himself could not withstand it.

Fortunately, after a while, the surrounding disturbances subsided somewhat after the spiritual energy flowed into the small cauldron.

A moment later, with a tremor in the small cauldron, an incomparably dazzling golden pill flew out of it.

Upon seeing the golden core clearly, Yang Fan gasped in astonishment.

The previously five-colored golden elixir has now turned into a chaotic void.

The original multicolored light disappeared, and in its place came an indescribable light.

How could this be? He stared in disbelief at his own golden core.

It should be noted that all cultivators' Golden Cores are distinguished according to the five elements attribute of their spiritual roots.

Cultivators with a single spiritual root or a heavenly spiritual root often possess only one attribute, and therefore their golden cores carry the corresponding single attribute.

For example, a disciple with a wood-attribute spiritual root will also form a wood-attribute golden core.

Fire, Earth, Water, and Metal follow the same pattern.

If it possesses both fire and earth attributes, then the golden core he condenses will carry both fire and earth spiritual energy.

In other words, spiritual roots have several attributes, and the golden core formed from them naturally has the same.

Yang Fan possesses a mixed spiritual root of the five elements.

Logically speaking, after advancing to the Core Formation stage, the condensed Golden Core should be formed by the combined effects of five types of spiritual energy.

Just like at the beginning, when Yang Fan looked around, he could see multicolored light flashing on the golden core.

This Five Elements Golden Elixir is naturally weaker than an ordinary Golden Elixir.

Because cultivators with mixed spiritual roots of the five elements are much slower at mobilizing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth than those with heavenly spiritual roots.

More importantly, while these five elements can generate each other, they can also counteract each other.

This also resulted in the Golden Elixir being far less powerful than before.

But at this moment, Yang Fan's golden core had completely changed; it was no longer radiant with five colors, but rather a chaotic void.

This means that Yang Fan's previous Five Elements Golden Core has now become the Chaos Golden Core.

The Chaos Golden Core is far more powerful than ordinary Golden Cores.

It should be understood that the five elements of spiritual energy in the world are actually differentiated from the chaotic energy, which is the mother energy of all things.

Yang Fan tried to draw more spiritual energy from heaven and earth into his golden core.

As these five elements of spiritual energy flew into Yang Fan's golden core, the golden core turned on its own, transforming all of these five elements of spiritual energy into chaotic energy.

"What a powerful Golden Core!" Yang Fan couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

This Chaos Golden Core is far more powerful than his previous Five Elements Golden Core.

In this way, the five elements of spiritual energy, which were originally mutually restraining, will all condense into chaotic energy within his body, which is the greatest gain.

Yang Fan clenched his fist excitedly. He had thought this small cauldron was powerful, but he never expected it to be this strong.

The fact that his worst Golden Core had suddenly been upgraded to the strongest Golden Core made Yang Fan so excited that he couldn't stop smiling.

This is wonderful! With this treasure, my path of cultivation will be smooth sailing from now on.

Yang Fan clenched his fist excitedly.

However, a moment later, Yang Fan immediately reminded himself to be careful; now was not the time to cheer.

He tried to calm himself down, slowly sat down, and then pondered his next move.

He is now trapped in the secret room, with no chance of breaking out, so he can only stay here for now.

However, since the other party is going to take him to the Heavenly Mystery Palace, they certainly won't kill him.

Of course, the other party might use other means to strengthen their control over him, and Yang Fan also needs to be careful about that.

After carefully considering everything, Yang Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

A moment later, he gently patted his head, realizing how he had forgotten those few things.

He excitedly rummaged through the storage bag. He had previously handed the storage bag to Luo Changhe, but Luo Changhe refused to accept it, and the contents of the bag hadn't been touched much.
