Planting an immortal tree in the wizarding world

Chapter 193 Core Formation!

The goal is to enable all commoners with wizarding potential to cultivate.

Although the wizarding families were unwilling, they had no choice but to continue due to the prestige of "Dorifa".

Ronan then gave all the crystal balls used for testing aptitude in the Wizard Tower to the Wizard Council.

The Wizarding Council was instructed to send wizards to travel throughout the land in search of those with wizarding qualifications.

They are then sent to various branches of the Wizard Council for intensive training.

In this way, in addition to increasing the kingdom's wizarding power.

They can also control all the wizarding power through the Wizarding Council.

Originally, wizards from various places would be absorbed by wizard families and wizarding schools.

If this move goes smoothly, all future new wizards will serve in the Wizarding Council.

This would greatly reduce wizard riots.

While searching for new wizards, Ronan also trained tirelessly day and night.

He sat high atop the ninety-ninth floor of the Wizard's Tower, breathing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the vicinity surged towards him.

A vortex of wind formed around him.

The speed at which the Yi Wood Dharma Body absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is indeed extraordinary.

After the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged into his meridians, it was refined into magical power by the Longevity Scripture of Ten Thousand Trees and injected into his dantian.

The magical power in his dantian was constantly rotating and compressing.

The magic power was extremely viscous, showing a tendency to solidify.

Above the magical power was a sphere of light radiating green glow.

Within the sphere of light lay his spiritual realm.

He continuously integrated the treasures from the Wizard Tower's warehouse into the Spirit Realm.

At this moment, the Spirit Realm had already taken on the appearance of a small fairyland.

In the center of this vast, chaotic space of the Spirit Realm lies a piece of land.

On the land, there are several trees that symbolize longevity.

Now, except for the tallest one, which is the mother tree of his natal longevity tree and cannot be moved into the spirit realm, all the other natal longevity trees have been moved into the spirit realm by him.

As your natal tree grows, tree species will appear.

He planted most of those tree species in the spiritual realm.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth that he absorbed during his cultivation was used partly for his own cultivation and partly incorporated into his spiritual realm.

Now, the spiritual energy in his spiritual realm is more than twice as dense as that outside.

He felt that the Spirit Realm was simply a huge reservoir of spiritual energy.

If this wizarding world is as sparsely populated with spiritual energy as the world of cultivation.

He can then use the spiritual energy in the spiritual realm to continue his cultivation.

'A breakthrough is imminent!'

Ronan looked inward at his dantian and watched as the magical power within it increasingly concentrated towards the center.

The nearby vortex of wind became even more violent.

The sound of wind was heard.

At the center of the dantian, a dazzling green light gradually formed and expanded.

'This must be what cultivators call the Golden Core,' right?

Ronan thought to himself.

As the golden core gradually forms, not only does the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth surge towards the body, but the power released by the golden core also washes over and impacts the physical body.

'No wonder one's physical body cannot be weak in order to successfully advance to the Core Formation stage.'

Ronan thought that if a Foundation Establishment cultivator only cultivates magical power and hardly cultivates his physical body, it would be a different story.

At this point, the physical body will be damaged.

Moreover, aside from physical damage, if one cannot endure it, one will not be able to survive until the Golden Core is formed.

If one fails to form the Golden Core, the physical body may be damaged in vain.

If you're unlucky and suffer hidden injuries, the success rate of forming your core next time will be even lower.

If this continues, it will become a vicious cycle.

Luo Nan not only possessed the Yi Wood Dharma Body, but also perfected the two physical cultivation methods, the Green Lotus and White Root Technique and the Withered Wood Rejuvenating Technique.

His physical strength is probably far superior to that of other body cultivators of the same level.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth, along with the power of the Golden Core, impacted him like a gentle breeze or soft waves.

As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged, the golden core grew larger and larger.

But Ronan did not relax in the slightest.

After all, the legendary invasion of inner demons has not yet arrived.

A little while later, Ronan heard the sound of wind in his ears.

Gradually, the sound of the wind turned into screams.

Before my eyes, shadowy figures appeared.

'Is this what inner demons are?'

Ronan looked at the indistinct shadows in front of him and thought to himself.

Immediately afterwards, these shadowy figures emitted waves of power, like hooks, pulling at his spirit.

However, his spirit remained as firm as Mount Tai, unmoved.

This is not only because his spirit is strong enough, but also because his physical body is strong enough to firmly lock his spirit.

Gradually, he began to see those shadowy figures more clearly.

Those shadows, twisting and turning like ripples, actually came from a spatial passage.

Ronan was taken aback.

After using the Nightmare Stone, he also saw a similar spatial passage.

'Could it be that the inner demons of the cultivation world and the illusions created by the Nightmare Stone in the wizarding world both originate from the Nightmare World?'

'Or perhaps the inner demons and the nightmare stone illusions originate from different worlds, but these two worlds are remarkably similar.'

'It's similar to the world of cultivation and the world of wizards; both have roughly the same rules.'

As Ronan was pondering this, he suddenly saw those twisted shadows.

There was a shadowy figure, vaguely resembling an old man with a long silver beard, dressed in a seven-colored wizard's robe.

The old man's face was exactly the same as Dolifa's.

The old man, shrouded in shadow, opened and closed his mouth as if shouting something to him.

But Ronan couldn't hear anything.

Moreover, because the old man's face was distorted, Ronan couldn't even read the lip movements of his mouth.

As time went by, Ronan's golden core grew larger and larger.

The screams of the inner demons in my ears were also getting fainter and fainter.

Gradually, the screams of the inner demons subsided completely.

In Ronan's dantian, the golden elixir has been formed!
He summoned the Primordial Chaos.

One by one, the data returned to my mind.

Cultivation Realm: Early Stage of Core Formation

Wizard Rank: Archmage
'Upon advancing to the early stage of Core Formation, my wizard level also increased.'

When Ronan looked at his stats, he discovered that his mana and spirit were already higher than those of an early-stage Grand Wizard.

It even surpasses the Grand Wizard who is in the middle stage.

For a cultivator, forming the Core is an enormous qualitative leap.

Ronan looked at the numbers and thought to himself.

At this moment, above the Wizard Tower, there was a vortex of clouds, which looked red and magnificent under the setting sun.

The entire city of Triumph witnessed this magnificent sight.

This is the celestial phenomenon that occurs when one breaks through to the Core Formation stage.

If this phenomenon occurred in a world of cultivation, it would likely cause quite a stir. However, he was inside Dolifa's wizard tower.

Those who witnessed this strange phenomenon believed it was orchestrated by Dorifa.

Dolifa was the most powerful wizard in the kingdom, so to others, it was nothing unusual for him to create this phenomenon.

After completing his core formation, Ronan stood up from the floor.

I felt lighter, both mentally and physically.

At this point, both Leon and Bran had reached the ninety-ninth floor.

When Ronan broke through to the Core Formation stage, he absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, making quite a commotion.

Although Leon and Bran, who were inside the wizard's tower, could not sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, they could feel the air surging upwards towards the tower.

They all went up the tower.

When they saw Ronan, they felt that he seemed unchanged, yet also that he had changed.

The change is that, compared to before, it seems to have acquired an indescribable quality.

"What happened?" Leon asked.

Ronan just smiled and said, "It's nothing, just a breakthrough."

Bran couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what wizard level are you now?"

After he moved into the tower, he almost always saw Ronan either cultivating or studying books.

In his mind, Ronan always seemed mysterious.

He also didn't know Ronan's strength.

Until recently, he heard that Dorifa had defeated both the Druids and the leader of the Summit of Stars.

He then realized that Ronan's strength was far greater than he had imagined.

Moreover, judging from how easily "Dolifa" defeated the two, it was clear that "Dolifa's" strength was far greater than that.

His second brother had become so powerful without him realizing it, which he found somewhat surreal.

He doesn't understand wizarding practices, but he does understand knightly practices.

He felt that even with the resources of the kingdom's strongest knight, he couldn't possibly reach that level of cultivation in just over two years.

Ronan did not answer directly, but said, "I estimate that there is no one in the kingdom who can rival me anymore."

Leon and Bran were shocked but also somewhat relieved upon hearing this.

With such a powerful wizard emerging from their family, the Lawrence family can now become a wizarding family and its lineage will continue.

After achieving the Golden Core stage, life returned to its ordinary yet fulfilling routine.

Ronan continued to cultivate the Scripture of Ten Thousand Trees' Longevity and constructed a spiritual realm.

The Longevity Scripture of Ten Thousand Trees is a cultivation method that allows one to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage.

Even though he has already formed his core, he can still continue cultivating using the Myriad Trees Longevity Scripture.

The next step after Core Formation is Nascent Soul.

Ronan knew very little about what came after the formation of the Golden Core.

This is because, within the True Sect, there is a library open to Foundation Establishment cultivators.

There is also a library that is open to Core Formation cultivators.

Ronan felt that now that he had reached the Core Formation stage, it was necessary to acquire more knowledge.

Not only did he acquire knowledge of the Nascent Soul stage, but he also mastered the Taiyi Heavenly Wood Sword Technique and the Withered Wood Springing Technique.

He wanted to find new spells and methods of body cultivation to continue his practice.

'However, advancing from Foundation Establishment to Core Formation so quickly will attract the attention of many cultivators.'

'Especially Nascent Soul cultivators will be very interested in me upon hearing this news.'

To avoid trouble, Ronan decided to create another alias.

He decided to abandon the identity of the Foundation Establishment cultivator.

After all, there are quite a few cultivators undergoing tribulations in the world of cultivation.

It is not uncommon for a Foundation Establishment cultivator to be killed by a treacherous cultivator after leaving their own immortal realm. Killing someone and stealing their treasures is a common occurrence.

With this in mind, Ronan decided to create a Core Formation phenomenon in the cultivation world so that the news of his Core Formation would reach his sect.

Immediately, Ronan walked to a teleportation array, chanted a spell, and teleported himself to a cultivation room.

Only a few candles burned in the meditation room, emitting a faint light.

As the candle burned, a fragrance that aided the wizard's meditation emanated from it.

Ronan's heart stirred, and he found himself transported to a world of cultivation.

He appeared in a forest in the mortal world.

He drank a high-level transformation potion and changed his appearance.

Then, they changed into clothing from the world of cultivation.

Once everything was in place, they flew towards the border between the True Immortal Realm of the Realm of the True Immortal Sect and the Immortal Realm of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

He found a cave and used cleansing talismans and earth magic to transform it into a cave dwelling.

Then, in the cave, he used spiritual and weather magic to create the strange phenomena of heaven and earth formed by the formation of the golden core.

As for the flow of spiritual energy, he didn't need to fake it at all.

He only needs to fully open his acupoints to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth then formed a gust of wind and surged towards him.

At this moment, the cultivators from the True Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Sword Sect Immortal Realm were still fighting in the distance.

Suddenly, I felt a gust of wind rise.

Immediately afterwards, the cultivators from both sides saw a cloud, resembling a dragon absorbing energy, slowly forming in the distance.

"What kind of celestial phenomenon is this?"

Some Foundation Establishment cultivators, upon seeing this celestial phenomenon, couldn't help but ask questions.

It's Core Formation!
When the Core Formation cultivators of the True Soul Sect and the Heavenly Sword Sect saw this strange phenomenon, they knew that someone was forming their Core in that area.

The Core Formation cultivators from the two sects subconsciously exchanged glances.

Then, the cultivators from the True Sect rode on the light of their magical treasures, while the cultivators from the Heavenly Sword Sect rode on the light of their swords, and flew towards the place of the strange phenomenon.

Their purpose in flying there was simply to kill the Core Formation cultivator while he was still in the early stages of his cultivation and his strength was unstable, so as to seize his resources.

However, they were conflicted, because this extraordinary phenomenon of Core Formation had been witnessed by all the cultivators.

This matter will eventually reach the ears of their sect's Nascent Soul ancestor.

The Nascent Soul Ancestor, upon seeing the Core Formation cultivator, did not wish to kill him, but rather to subdue him.

Because enough Core Formation cultivators can help Nascent Soul Ancestors kill Nascent Soul Ancestors from other sects.

Furthermore, the resources of a Core Formation cultivator are far inferior to those of a Nascent Soul ancestor of a sect.

Therefore, Nascent Soul Ancestors usually do not kill Core Formation cultivators to seize their treasures.

Both Core Formation cultivators felt a sense of apprehension.

What if they target new Core Formation cultivators instead of trying to win them over, and the Nascent Soul Ancestor finds out?

But then they thought of the people beside them.

They could easily frame someone close to them for the death of a Core Formation cultivator.

With this in mind, the two Core Formation cultivators had no more worries and flew towards Ronan's location.

At the start of the flight, it was difficult to tell the difference in their speeds.

However, after flying for a while, they realized that the flight speed of the Core Formation cultivators from the Heavenly Sword Sect was faster than that of the Core Formation cultivators from the True Realm Sect.

Upon seeing this, the Core Formation cultivator from the True Sect, fearing that the Core Formation cultivator from the Heavenly Sword Sect would get there first, became anxious and immediately waved his hand.

He then brought out a bronze mirror.

With a thought, the bronze mirror emitted a bright light and struck the back of the Heavenly Sword Sect cultivator.

The Tianjian Sect cultivators sensed something amiss behind them and immediately turned their flying swords around to block the light.

Suddenly, a clang rang out in the sky as the light collided with the flying sword and instantly exploded into specks of light.

Immediately, the two began to fight in the air.

Meanwhile, Foundation Establishment cultivators began to arrive one after another.

Most of them, seeing the strange phenomenon in the sky, assumed it was the reappearance of ancient cultivators' relics and flocked to the site, hoping to get a share of the spoils.
