Man is in the heavens, parasitic on the way

With a thought, the fist-sized Golden Core shattered, transforming into scattered golden light that fell into the vast ocean of True Essence below.

As the Golden Core broke, the words 'Golden Core' displayed on the attribute panel blurred for a moment, then changed back to 'Foundation Establishment'.

"The reaction is quite fast," Fang Ming muttered softly.

Looking at the fluctuating True Essence lake beneath him, Fang Ming felt a sense of difficulty; for a moment, he had lost direction regarding the path ahead.

The problem of magic power was solved, but a new one had arisen.

How to improve his realm had become a problem again!

"Could it be that I really have to take the path of forming a Nascent Soul from the Golden Core? But it seems I can't walk this path..." Fang Ming frowned.

"Let's try it first..." With a thought, golden torrents of True Essence began to rise from the lake below, transforming into vortices in the air.

At this moment, the True Essence was like a flood, emitting a 'whoosh' sound.

Amidst the sound of rushing water, dazzling golden suns appeared within the vortices.

One, two...

Looking over, above the world within this seed-fruit, there were actually one thousand two hundred Golden Cores suspended, like blazing suns!

Looking at the astonishing number of Golden Cores, Fang Ming glanced at the attribute panel; the cultivation column still showed the words 'Golden Core'.

Seeing this, Fang Ming's mouth twitched, and he said strangely, "It's not Golden Core one thousand two hundred layers?"

After condensing so many Golden Cores, the True Essence lake below had only decreased by one layer.

"With so many Golden Cores, I don't feel any obvious increase in strength..." Fang Ming sighed helplessly, "This doesn't work either..."

With a thought, the Golden Cores exploded one by one, turning into scattered golden light and rejoining the True Essence lake below.

At this moment, he truly understood that he could not follow the system of this world!

The condensation of a core by cultivators in this world is not merely solidifying their magic power into a core; it involves many aspects, including the profound mysteries of the body and the Nascent Soul.

Unfortunately, as an Immortal Vine, Fang Ming himself was fundamentally different from other sentient beings.

Other beings could follow the current system, but he could not.

The first step, cultivating magic power, had taken him five hundred years.

"Let's still try it and see. What if my deduction is wrong..." Fang Ming took a deep breath and began the process of forming a core.

'Whoosh ~'

The lake formed by True Essence constantly surged, and a giant vortex appeared. Fang Ming manipulated the True Essence lake with his divine sense, causing it to rotate.

He was attempting to condense all of his True Essence into a Golden Core!

A few days later, Fang Ming looked at the Golden Core suspended in the air, nearly twenty li in size, his face filled with a bitter smile as he muttered:

"For me, isn't this just transforming True Essence magic power into another form? There's no profound mystery as imagined, it's just useless work!"

At this point, Fang Ming's侥幸心理 completely vanished!

"Ultimately, this Immortal Vine body cannot follow the Golden Core, Nascent Soul system!" Fang Ming sighed helplessly. With a thought, the massive Golden Core suddenly shattered, transforming into a golden torrent that fell.

Soon, the inside of the seed-fruit returned to the appearance of a vast ocean.

This indicated that his Golden Core was merely superficial, only a change in form had occurred.

When a normal cultivator shatters their Golden Core, how could they be as unharmed as he was?

He recalled various cultivation techniques, but none could give him any inspiration.

Fang Ming thought long and hard, but in the end, not a single flash of insight appeared to solve the problem.

Looking at the cultivation column displayed on the attribute panel that he hadn't closed earlier, Fang Ming's heart stirred, and he muttered:

"Why am I thinking so much now? As long as my magic power can fully unleash the power of this Immortal Vine body, won't that be enough!"

Thinking of this, his eyes lit up!

As long as he could fully unleash the power of his Immortal Vine body, with a body comparable to a Xuan Tian sacred artifact, why bother with things like realms?

For a long time in the future, he wouldn't need to worry about the problem of realms, unless the strength of his body couldn't improve.

In other words, he still had a lot of Time to solve this problem.

"If I can't find a way to improve in this world, it doesn't mean there's no way in another world!" Thinking of this, Fang Ming immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Moreover, it's not that I can't improve..." Looking at the fluctuating True Essence lake below him, Fang Ming thought to himself, "I just need to expand this inner world and then accumulate magic power!"

Yes, since he couldn't follow the normal cultivation system of this world, Fang Ming planned to take an unconventional approach, accumulating magic power frantically, and then directly achieving a miracle through sheer power!

The inner world of this seed-fruit was equivalent to his dantian; as long as it continued to expand, the more magic power he could accommodate!

Let's have a Foundation Establishment ten thousand layers!

There is no Great Dao that dictates that a 'Foundation Establishment' cannot defeat a Great Ascension, or even a higher True Immortal!

"I have insights into the Dao, I have divine abilities, I have magic power. I possess all the conditions to become a strong person, why bother with realms?" Thinking of this, the dark clouds in Fang Ming's heart dispersed.

Thinking of this, Fang Ming cleared his mind and entered a state of 'stillness'.

Fang Ming entered stillness, quickly entering the Dao state, and rice-sized fragments of the Dao descended like pouring rain.

As he entered stillness, the inner world of this seed-fruit began to tremble gently, expanding at an imperceptible speed.

He had fallen into the deepest level of comprehending the Dao.

At the same Time, the gold and silver patterns on the Immortal Vine also glowed, illuminating the outside world brightly!

As the light shone, the silver patterns on the Immortal Vine leaves slowly and imperceptibly turned golden.

Although the speed was not very fast, it was clear that they were indeed transforming.

In the Medicine Garden, footsteps sounded, and Han Li arrived at this Medicine Garden carrying a jade bottle filled with green liquid.

Looking at the brightly glowing Immortal Vine, and the increasingly fewer silver patterns on the Immortal Vine's body, Han Li thought to himself, "The strength of this Immortal Vine body will likely reach a new level within a few hundred years."

Having ascended to the Spirit Realm for two hundred years, Han Li had already recognized what the golden patterns on the Immortal Vine were. They were patterns evolved from the laws of heaven and earth.

They were somewhat similar to Golden Seal Script, but more profound, perhaps a further evolution of Golden Seal Script.

Walking to the familiar white jade pillar, looking at the still fist-sized cauldron-shaped Xuan Tian fruit, Han Li took out the jade bottle, aimed it at the mouth of the cauldron, and flicked his finger.

A 'ding' sound vibrated, and a brightly glowing golden sun fell from the mouth of the small golden cauldron.

Within the golden sun, countless rice-sized golden runes flickered in and out of sight, appearing incredibly mysterious.

"This drop of black heaven spirit liquid, nurtured for ten years with many spiritual medicines, will likely be enough for the Body Integration Realm!" Looking at the black heaven spirit liquid that fell into the jade bottle, Han Li took a deep breath.

He had long understood the effect of this black heaven spirit liquid.

After entering the Spirit Realm, because the origin of heaven and earth became stronger, the effect of this spirit liquid also increased significantly.

He had broken through the Void Refinement Realm with the help of this spirit liquid.

This drop of spirit liquid was a special spirit liquid that he had specifically asked the Immortal Vine Spirit to nurture for ten years. Its effect was several times stronger than the spirit liquid produced every five years.

Putting away the spirit liquid, recalling the changes of the Immortal Vine over the years, Han Li said, "Brother Teng has comprehended the Dao for two hundred years, has there been any breakthrough?"

Recalling the various things he had encountered over the years, Han Li still felt that the move the Immortal Vine Spirit used after he lent it magic power back then was one of the top divine abilities he had ever seen!
