Chapter 1145 - Through Life and Death (1/2)

The Golden Core was shattered.

A tiny crack appeared on the Nine Transformations Deity Wheel. That Deity Wheel—carved with the Xuan Wu, the Red Sparrow, the Kun Peng and the Grand Dao floating in the air like a moon—immediately seemed to have an energy that wasn’t perfect and free anymore.

Chen Fan’s heart was as cold as ice.

He knew that there was no turning back anymore at this point; he would need to go through the formation of his Nascent Soul. What was a Golden Core? “Golden” represented immortality and with the word “golden” in the name of the Golden Core meant that it was the most perfect, hardest and most lasting thing in the world. Although the Golden Core of a normal cultivator might break or dim after a few thousand years, and even the Golden Core of a Divine Prince might not make it through dozens of thousands of years…

Chen Fan’s deity-grade Golden Core was something truly immortal.

Even when a Soul Formation Grand Cultivator died, his Nine Transformations Deity Wheel would probably still float in the sky like the sun and the moon. Even if Chen Fan’s Divine Soul faded, his body decayed and his life stopped, that Golden Core would still exist. If an old Grand Cultivator grabbed Chen Fan’s Golden Core, he would easily be able to make a supreme treasure on par with a Divine Treasure!

Such an incredibly hard Golden Core had suddenly been shattered. It was an extremely serious problem even if it was just a tiny crack.

So, if Chen Fan was unable to form the Nascent Soul at once, he would return to the level he was at a few years before and suffer an unprecedented blow, having only 80% of his Dharma Power left. That was why forming the Nascent Soul was so difficult. The higher his level and the more stable his foundation, the more barriers he would encounter when forming the Nascent Soul.

“Keep going!”

—-

Chen Fan’s eyes had no emotions at all and his calm mind didn’t have a hint of panic or fear. He only kept going step by step and continued propping the nine black holes open. He attracted the energy in those nine high-level worlds to himself, pouring it in his sea of energy.

Boom!

The nine black holes that used to be the size of a thumb expanded to the size of a bowl right now. All kinds of energy shot towards Chen Fan like high-pressure water guns. A few times more beams of golden light also appeared and more and more Dharma Laws of the Deity Realm came out of them, flying into Chen Fan’s Nine Transformation Deity Wheel.

The nine worlds all counted on the supreme Deity Realm to exist and were far above the human world. There might even be some Sacred Beasts and Deity Beasts. So, those worlds were filled with the energy from the Deity Realm and carried a lot of Dharma Laws of the Deity Realm. They had even denser and purer Essence Qi than in the human world.

However, Chen Fan also had to pay the price after opening the nine worlds forcefully.

“Whoosh!”

His crystal clear Deity Body started burning and the endless vitality turned into layers of fierce fire. The Deity Soul made of gold also let out light golden fire. His energy, vitality and spirit also burnt at the same time, supporting the formation of the Nascent Soul and opening the nine passages to attract even more powerful energy down at the same time.

Poof!

Even Chen Fan was a bit overwhelmed at this moment. Two drops of blood dripped down from his ears and nose, then immediately evaporated into powerful vitality and went into the energy.

If his foundation wasn’t incredibly strong, having an initial-success Deity Body, a Nine Transformation Golden Core and a supreme Deity Soul, any Nascent Soul Cultivator would instantly be dried.

Those nine worlds were way beyond the human world.

Only those with the power of at least the level of Grand Cultivators or Saints could open them. Even though the nine black holes Chen Fan opened were only the size of a bowl, he still had to pay a heavy price.

Crack, crack!

The power from the nine worlds pressed onto Chen Fan’s flesh, creating some screeching sound like the piercing sound of a steel frame being crushed by something heavy.

Right when he continued burning his Divine Soul and vitality.
