There was no hesitation in her heart.
Infuse the Ten Thousand Ravines Returning to Origin Scripture!
In her mind, the number representing her Dao Cultivation began to rapidly decrease at an unprecedented speed.
[Consumed forty-five years of Dao Cultivation, the Ten Thousand Ravines Returning to Origin Scripture has reached the introductory level.]
[Consumed one hundred fifteen years of Dao Cultivation, the Ten Thousand Ravines Returning to Origin Scripture has reached the proficient level.]
Her Dao Cultivation was still burning madly.
Jiang Yuechu, deciding to go all out, steeled her heart.
"Directly to the peak!"
[Consumed eight hundred thirty years of Dao Cultivation, the Ten Thousand Ravines Returning to Origin Scripture has reached the peerless level.]
Jiang Yuechu, however, couldn't afford to feel distressed.
With the Ten Thousand Ravines Returning to Origin Scripture at the peerless level, its Cultivation Technique Profound Truths were like lines on her palm, all imprinted deep within her Divine Soul.
She sat cross-legged, eyes closed.
Core Unification Method, activate!
In an instant.
Jiang Yuechu felt her Divine Soul lighten, as if she had fallen into boundless darkness.
In this darkness, her Physical Body transformed into a towering furnace.
Her bones and muscles served as the furnace walls.
Her four limbs and hundred bones formed the furnace base.
And the surging, violent Qi and blood, almost bursting forth from her body, was the blazing inferno capable of incinerating mountains and boiling seas!
The fire was lit, the furnace glowed red.
Using her body as the furnace, Qi and blood as the fire, and Divine Soul as the hammer!
Next, within this inner world, she would forge a Martial Dao Golden Core!
Her bones groaned, her tendons tore.
But immediately after, they were rapidly repaired by the incredibly pure Qi and blood, becoming even tougher and stronger!
Break and then establish!
Who knew how long passed.
When the last trace of Impurities was refined, the torrent of Qi and blood gathered in her Dantian had already transformed into a viscous, mercury-like crimson droplet.
The Divine Soul hammer fell again.
This time, it was no longer a violent pounding, but a gentle, rhythmic tapping.
Clink... it was like an old master in a blacksmith's shop, performing the final sharpening for a divine weapon about to be born.
Clink... the crimson droplet slowly rotated, continuously compressing and solidifying with each tap.
Gradually.
A golden gleam quietly lit up from the deepest part of the crimson droplet.
Following that, a second, a third... countless golden gleams emerged from within, like bamboo shoots after rain.
Finally.
When the last Divine Soul hammer strike fell.
With a resounding boom!
The crimson droplet completely transformed into a Golden Core, the size of a longan, perfectly round, and covered in profound patterns!
A Martial Dao Golden Core!
As soon as the Golden Core formed, an indescribable suction force erupted from within!
Something in the surrounding heaven and earth, in the air, seemed to transform into a visible stream of Qi, madly surging into her body!
Jiang Yuechu suddenly opened her eyes.
A golden light flashed in her eyes and disappeared.
She slowly raised her hand and clenched it into a fist.
Her fair fist, with slender finger bones, seemed no different.
But... was that truly the case?
With this thought, she slowly raised her hand and lightly clenched it in front of the empty space.
Buzz—
The air in front of her visibly distorted, letting out a muffled explosion.
This was Core Formation.
Internal and external senses interacting, merging with heaven and earth.
"So that's how it is..."
Jiang Yuechu muttered to herself, but her thoughts were more straightforward.
Before, when fighting, she used her Qi and blood, which was like the money in her pocket; spend a bit, lose a bit, and after fighting, she'd have to find ways to earn it back.
Now, she used the Qi of heaven and earth, which was equivalent to directly connecting to the imperial treasury; as long as the imperial court didn't fall, the money would be endless.
And the Core Unification technique like the Ten Thousand Ravines Returning to Origin Scripture affected the efficiency with which she could draw money from the treasury.
Her Demon Suppression Division's Cultivation Technique wasn't top-tier, but it was definitely not bad either.
Coupled with the peerless Realm, even though she had just entered Core Formation, if she faced some slightly weaker Core Formation old monsters, she probably wouldn't be at a disadvantage.
After carefully sensing the changes after Core Formation, Jiang Yuechu drew the horizontal blade from her waist again.
With a thought.
Flesh and Blood Armament.
On her arm holding the blade, her flesh and skin began to squirm strangely, and crimson flesh and blood tentacles, like living things, spread up her arm, rapidly engulfing the entire horizontal blade!
In the blink of an eye.
The originally unremarkable standard horizontal blade had transformed into a monstrous, dark red demonic blade covered in bizarre patterns!
On the blade, one could even see vein-like patterns faintly pulsating, as if it possessed its own life.
Jiang Yuechu swung the blade.
The weight hadn't increased much, but the feeling of sharpness and sturdiness was vastly different.
She casually slashed at the bluestone ground in the courtyard.
Hiss—
There was no obstruction whatsoever.
The hard bluestone slab was easily cut open with a bottomless gash, as if it were tofu, the cut smooth as a mirror.
Jiang Yuechu's pupils slightly contracted.
Oh my goodness!
This was merely a standard horizontal blade issued by the Demon Suppression Division, forged from hundred-refined steel, not considered a divine weapon or Sharp Weapon.
But now, under the enhancement of this Divine Ability, it seemed to have been reborn.
If she could find a true divine weapon in the future and enhance it with this method... what kind of power would that be?
This thought flashed through her mind.
Jiang Yuechu collected her thoughts, and with a mental command, the squirming flesh and blood tentacles on her arm receded like a tide, and the demonic blade in her hand reverted to the unremarkable standard horizontal blade.
She sheathed the horizontal blade and immersed her mind in her thoughts.
After the recent consumption, she wondered how much of her reserves were left.
[Host: Jiang Yuechu]
[Realm: Early Core Formation]
[Dao Cultivation: Two thousand two hundred forty-five years]
[Recorded Demons: Tiger Mountain God (Heavenly Born), Green-Faced Gentleman (Crimson-Dyed), Mythical Ape (Crimson-Dyed), Black Mountain Bear Lord (Shadow Mimic)]
[Innate Divine Abilities: Yin Method Heaven Bestowal, Tiger Fiend Blood Boil, Wolf Travels a Thousand Li, Impure Earth Golden Body, Flesh and Blood Armament]
Two thousand two hundred forty-five years.
She silently calculated.
To raise the pig Demon to Crimson-Dyed, it cost three hundred fifty years.
And the Ten Thousand Ravines Returning to Origin Scripture, from nothing to the peerless Realm, burned a full eight hundred thirty years of her Dao Cultivation.
Together, that was one thousand one hundred eighty years.
Using over a thousand years of Dao Cultivation to gain such strength was a worthwhile trade, no matter how one calculated it.
What's more... she still had over two thousand years of Dao Cultivation left, enough for her to do many more things.
Should she continue to enhance the pig Demon? Or should she also... hmm... just as Jiang Yuechu was deep in thought.
Thump, thump-thump.
Suddenly, there was an urgent knocking sound from outside the courtyard gate.
Jiang Yuechu raised an eyebrow, withdrew her thoughts, got up, walked to the door, and opened the courtyard gate.
Outside the door, a Demon Suppression Guards on night duty stood anxiously, and upon seeing Jiang Yuechu, he immediately knelt on one knee.
"My Lord!"
"What is it?"
"Outside the pass... there's a military report from outside the pass!"
The Demon Suppression Guards gasped, "Great General Wei's personal guard, an 800-li urgent dispatch!"
