Chapter 74: Feather Transformation Golden Core
On the ninth day after planting the spiritual grains, all of them finally bore rice ears! They all reached heights of over two meters, almost three.
Because of the different varieties of spiritual grains, the rice ears also differed in appearance.
The "Purple Rice" planted on the left side of the spiritual field had rice ears that were purple, striking and beautiful.
On the right side, the "Black Rock" had black rice ears, deep and understated; used to eating white rice, Ji Yang felt little appetite for these spiritual grains.
As for the "Golden Fruit" planted in the center, it was the most eye-catching. Each rice ear shone with a golden color, looking extremely splendid, resembling a treasure gleaming with the light of gold under the sun.
Most special was the "Golden Fruit" planted in front of the wooden house, which had no flaws.
This "Golden Fruit" stood over four meters tall, making Ji Yang look up at it. It had also produced its rice ears earlier, but they showed no signs of ripening yet, indicating a longer maturation period.
Ji Yang kept a close watch on this "Golden Fruit" because it provided him with one Blue Light Point each day, making it his current powerful ally!
The spiritual grains were performing well, and the rice ears indicated that their yield was not low.
As for the Mid-tier Spiritual Plants planted on the other side, they had also grown over the past few days and started to show their shapes but were still far from maturity.
Seeing that these ten or so spiritual plants provided him with Green Light Points daily, Ji Yang did not mind too much!
Today, Ji Yang harvested a total of ten cultivation points, bringing his total cultivation points to fifty-six.
【Name: Ji Yang】
【Age: 19】
【Realm: Late Stage of Foundation Establishment】
【Techniques: Feather Transformation Ascension Skill】
【Abilities: Heart Sword, Sword Cultivation, Thousands of Sword Energies, Feather Transformation】
【Cultivation Level: 56/99】
【Usable】
【Status: Talent Jealousy (Will face great danger in five days)】
When his cultivation points reached fifty-six, the button for using them finally appeared active.
This meant that Ji Yang could now break through to the Golden Core Stage!
Ji Yang’s heart burned with excitement, but when he saw his current status, he frowned slightly, realizing he was faced with great danger again.
He remembered the last great danger was the mine collapse, fresh in his mind; what would this one be?
Ji Yang looked around, trying to pinpoint a possible cause.
Jingtan Peak was one of the Twelve Peaks of the sect, and it was where Ye Wuchen resided. Other disciples, even the elders, wouldn’t easily come here.
In all these days, he hadn’t seen any elders paying visits, indicating Ye Wuchen had some average connections.
Moreover, with the sword wall left by Ye Wuchen surrounding Jingtan Peak, Ji Yang felt that even if he reached the Golden Core Stage, he wouldn’t be able to overcome it.
It would be even harder for others to break in.
Scanning his surroundings, Ji Yang shook his head in frustration. He couldn’t think of any source of danger, especially since he wasn’t in the mine this time.
Talent Jealousy indeed brought misfortune, but Ji Yang remained fearless.
He planned to observe for another couple of days and confirm there were no risks before advancing to the Golden Core Stage! Since his cultivation points had not yet reached the limit, he didn’t need to worry about overflowing.
Gazing at the sky, he wondered what Ye Wuchen was doing. Could it be that Jingtan Peak was left to him alone? His master was indeed considerate.
On the tenth day after planting the spiritual grains, many rice ears began to change and slowly hang down.
Today, Ji Yang harvested eleven cultivation points, bringing his total to sixty-seven, and he had not yet encountered any great danger.
On the eleventh day after planting the spiritual grains, Ji Yang harvested twelve cultivation points, totaling seventy-nine, and still faced no great danger.
On the twelfth day after planting, all the spiritual grains had hung down their ears, and in two days, they would fully ripen. Today, Ji Yang harvested thirteen cultivation points, showing a steady increase! His total cultivation points reached ninety-two.
If all went well, he would break through the limit of his cultivation points tomorrow. Ji Yang had never tried and didn’t want to.
On the third day of the Talent Jealousy status, Ji Yang still did not face the impending great danger.
After absorbing the Green Light Points from a few Mid-tier Spiritual Plants, Ji Yang adjusted his state, confirmed that his True Essence was abundant, and feeling good, Ji Yang decisively pressed the usable button.
As the points disappeared, a familiar sensation surged in his heart once again.
Countless gentle spiritual energies suddenly appeared in his body, quickly rushing into his dantian.
This time, Ji Yang used the most cultivation points he ever had, and the spiritual energy was denser than before!
As the spiritual energy flowed into his dantian, the previously incomplete pool of water began to change again.
The influx of ample spiritual energy quickly fused, compressed, and transformed the already small pool!
Ji Yang continuously operated the Feather Transformation Ascension Skill as the condensed True Essence inside him began to spin rapidly, becoming smaller and smaller during the rotation.
Golden patterns appeared on its surface lightly.
As the golden patterns emerged, the rotating True Essence gradually took shape, resembling a golden core the size of a fist!
Although the golden core had appeared, Ji Yang had not yet broken through to the Golden Core Stage.
Not enough! He needed to continue compressing!
Ji Yang exerted all his effort into the Feather Transformation Ascension Skill, and as his body rose into the air, he exhibited signs of transformation; even the surrounding spiritual grains seemed to reflect this ascension.
The original golden patterns on the golden core began to change gradually, transforming into a milky white color, while further compressing in the process.
When the golden core inside Ji Yang was compressed to the size of a pigeon egg, Ji Yang’s whole body shook!
His aura surged, and his realm instantly broke through to the early Golden Core Stage!
Seeing his realm breakthrough, Ji Yang’s eyes lit up with joy, and just before making any other moves, he felt the spiritual energy within him still flowing continuously toward his golden core.
Ji Yang no longer hesitated and continued to operate the techniques.
His early Golden Core Stage realm surged dramatically in an instant.
In the next moment, the spiritual energy within him scattered, vanishing without a trace.
Yet Ji Yang wore a satisfied smile.
Mid Golden Core Stage!
Not bad!
All his hard work of planting was not in vain!
Once his realm stabilized completely, Ji Yang expelled the golden core from his mouth and observed it closely in front of him.
The golden core he formed was entirely white; it had grown from the size of a pigeon egg to half a fist now, rich in True Essence.
The outer surface also bore deep-colored patterns, which naturally bound all of Ji Yang’s True Essence within.
This should be the Feather Transformation Golden Core he had condensed through his training techniques.
However, looking at this golden core, Ji Yang couldn’t help but question; why did it look so much like a kidney stone?
If it weren’t for its smoothness, he might have doubted whether he had really condensed a genuine golden core.
But feeling himself grow stronger, a sparkle lit up in Ji Yang’s eyes.
Then he swallowed the golden core in front of him in one gulp and shouted to the sky,
“With one golden core in my belly, my fate is mine, not determined by heaven!”
Feeling the golden core return to his dantian, Ji Yang showed a mischievous smile, feeling great!
However, the golden core did not need to be swallowed whole and did not have to pass through his throat; it could directly sink into his dantian.
But that smile didn’t last long as the sky above him changed color.
