154: Chapter 154 Primordial Purple Qi, the Foundation of All Paths!

Buzz—!

As that nearly imperceptible wisp of primordial violet qi sank into Ning Yuan's churning golden essence sea, it was like a meteorite crashing into a calm lake, capable of triggering a tsunami!

The entire stone chamber on the hundredth floor of the Taixu Divine Tower, and even the entire Taixu Secret Realm, trembled under the overwhelming burden at that moment!

Outside.

At the foot of Sacred Martial Mountain, everyone's eyes were glued to the light screen, their hearts in their throats.

Although they couldn't see exactly what was happening inside the stone chamber, the terrifying pressure transmitted through the screen, which seemed capable of crushing the eternal sky, made everyone present feel a sense of suffocation from the depths of their Souls!

"This... what kind of aura is this?!"

"Too terrifying! I feel like my essence energy has been frozen!"

"Could it be that the ultimate trial of the Taixu Divine Tower has been triggered?"

"No! This aura... it surpasses the King Realm! It even surpasses Emperors!"

The five deans looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock and confusion.

Even the well-traveled Zhuang Chen was frowning deeply now, staring intently at the light screen shrouded in white light.

"This is definitely not a disturbance that the taixu origin could cause!"

"That kid... what on earth is he doing in there?!"

Jiang Baihe swallowed hard and prayed silently: "My little ancestor, please don't let this Secret Realm collapse from your meddling!"

Meanwhile, Ning Yuan, at the center of the storm, was completely immersed in a profound and mysterious state.

primordial violet qi!

The foundation of ten thousand Daos, the essence of becoming a Saint!

Even with just this tiny wisp, the true meaning of the Great Dao it contained was far beyond what he could fully comprehend now.

However, that didn't stop it from exerting a Heaven-Defying effect of changing one's fate!

This wisp of violet qi was like a flawless key, instantly unlocking the treasure trove of all the potential within Ning Yuan's body!

Rumble!

Under the guidance of the violet qi, his one hundred million jin of perfect blood qi surged frantically into his essence sea like a hundred rivers returning to the ocean!

His King-level Physical Body, already indestructible after being tempered by Saint King Essence Blood, emitted thunderous roars of dragons and elephants; every inch of bone and every fiber of muscle greedily absorbed the Dao charm radiated by the violet qi!

"Fusion! Fuse for me!"

Ning Yuan shouted frantically in his heart.

He closed his eyes, pouring all his focus into this unprecedented transformation.

In his perception, that vast and boundless golden essence sea was undergoing earth-shattering changes!

The originally violent and surging essence energy, under the harmony of the primordial violet qi, actually began to become incredibly docile and condensed!

The mixed energy and Law fragments absorbed from the taixu origin were also washed clean by the violet qi, leaving only the purest and most original essence of the Great Dao!

What shocked Ning Yuan the most were the three supreme visions within his body!

immortal ancient star, Primordial Divine Elephant, Nine Heavens True Dragon!

These three visions were originally powerful, but they fought their own battles, entirely dependent on Ning Yuan using his powerful Physical Body and essence energy to forcibly control them.

But now!

Under the guidance of the primordial violet qi, these three actually began to blend and permeate each other in an incredible way!

The weight and immortality of the ancient star, the suppression and power of the Divine Elephant, and the majesty and destruction of the True Dragon!

These three distinct yet supreme Concepts, under the harmony of the violet qi, gradually converged into a flawless whole!

"This... this is..."

Stormy waves surged in Ning Yuan's heart; he could clearly feel that an unprecedented, terrifying thing that surpassed the limits of cognition was being nurtured deep within his essence sea!

It was a... core!

A core forged from one hundred million jin of perfect blood qi, the foundation of a Saint King-level Physical Body, the taixu origin, three supreme visions, and a wisp of primordial violet qi—a God-Level Core!

In the process of a Flying Heaven Realm breaking through to the King Realm, the most critical step is to compress and crystallize the essence sea within the body, eventually condensing it into one's own 'power core'.

The quality of this core will directly determine a Martial Artist's potential and combat power after reaching the King Realm!

Ordinary King Realm experts only condense a Mortal-Grade Core.

Those brilliant top-tier prodigies might be able to condense a Spirit Rank or even Earth-Grade Core.

And for peerless geniuses of the 'Eight Kings' level, their goal, without exception, is the legendary, one-in-a-million Heaven-Grade Core!

But now!

What Ning Yuan was nurturing was a God-Level Core that surpassed the Heaven-Grade and all previous imaginations!

"Condense... for me!"

Ning Yuan suddenly snapped his eyes open, and two violet-gold divine lights, like physical swords, instantly pierced through the ceiling of the stone chamber!

He threw his head back and let out a long roar that shook the Nine Heavens!

BOOM!!!

Accompanied by this long roar, the vast and boundless golden essence sea within his body seemed to receive some irresistible summons and began to collapse inward at a frantic speed!

One hundred thousand zhang!

Ten thousand zhang!

One thousand zhang!

One hundred zhang!

...

Finally, that golden ocean, large enough to submerge stars, was forcibly compressed into a crystal only the size of a fist, yet radiating a dazzling violet-gold light!

This crystal floated deep within his Dantian, slowly rotating.

With every rotation, it released a terrifying fluctuation that made all things in heaven and earth tremble!

On the surface of this crystal, an ancient star could be faintly seen rising and falling, a Divine Elephant was roaring, and a True Dragon was coiling!

And between these three, a wisp of violet air current was slowly swimming, radiating the supreme divine charm of the foundation of ten thousand Daos!

God-Level Core! Formed!

At this moment, Ning Yuan felt as if he had been transformed, experiencing a Rebirth!

It was not just a surge in power, but a leap in his level of life!

Under the nourishment of this power, his Divine Soul became as tough as a physical object, and he even faintly touched that mysterious veil called 'Rules'.

He could clearly perceive the lines of Laws flowing in the surrounding space; if he wished, he could even easily pluck or twist them!

This was the hallmark of a King Realm expert—controlling rules!

Moreover, because of the God-Level Core and the primordial violet qi, what Ning Yuan controlled was far more profound and terrifying than that of an ordinary King Realm expert!

"Is this... the power of the King Realm?"

Ning Yuan clenched his fist, feeling the terrifying power at his fingertips that seemed capable of crushing stars, and a wildly arrogant smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Three months? Heh..."

"I, Ning Yuan, keep my word!"

"Now, let me see what this so-called King Realm Lightning Tribulation can possibly do to me!"

Outside.

At the very moment Ning Yuan successfully condensed the God-Level Core.

Above the Great Xia Martial Academy, a sudden change occurred!

The originally clear sky darkened without warning!

Heavy dark clouds churned and gathered like ink, blotting out the sun and shrouding the entire Sacred Martial Mountain in a suffocating darkness!

Deep within those pitch-black clouds, thick violet lightning bolts as large as mountain ranges were frantically roaming and roaring, radiating a terrifying heavenly might that could destroy the world!

This heavenly might was so strong that even the five Martial God deans present felt their hearts skip a beat!

"This... this is..."

Dean Zhuang Chen suddenly looked up, staring intently at the thunderclouds brewing the destructive storm in the sky, his eyes full of shock and disbelief.

"King Realm Lightning Tribulation?!"

"And it's the legendary... Zixiao World-Ending Tribulation?!"

The other four deans also changed color, crying out in alarm.

"Someone is becoming a King in the Secret Realm?!"

"How is this possible?! The rule suppression of the Taixu Secret Realm is extremely strong; how could it allow someone to trigger a Lightning Tribulation inside?!"

"Unless... that person's foundation is already strong enough to forcibly break through the Secret Realm's rules!"

Jiang Baihe's eyes widened, and the image of that always-mischievous, black-faced youth uncontrollably surfaced in his mind.

*Gulp...*

He swallowed hard and muttered to himself with a trembling voice.

"Ning Yuan... this kid... what kind of atrocious thing did he do to actually attract this level of Lightning Tribulation?!"
