Chapter 1688 Requesting support from the outside
Song Shuhang opened his eyes, and asked, “Should I add the finishing touch now?”“Ever since you first entered this seclusion, three days have passed. You only have a total of 30 days to enter the Sixth Stage Realm,” Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said. “Don’t waste time. While others only need to work on a single golden core when ascending from the Fifth Stage to the Sixth Stage, you need to deal with seven small golden cores plus your life-bound whale core, for a total of eight cores. If you continue wasting time, you’ll be dead before you know it.”Fairy Creation sang, “Black bazaar~ Youth~ Become a myth~”
“No… That’s not what I meant. I was just considering whether I should burn incense for better luck before I add my finishing touch…” Song Shuhang looked at the Senior White’s clone floating in the distance, and couldn’t help but think of the scene when Soft Feather first met Senior White.
“Senior White, wish me good luck,” Soft Feather had said back then while burning incense in a serious manner.
“…” Scarlet Heaven Sword.
Behind Song Shuhang, Fairy Creation began to sing softly. She was using the ancient language, and softly sang a melody that Song Shuhang couldn’t understand.
Song Shuhang said, “Thank you, Fairy.”
Fairy Creation’s singing was a great weapon for transcending the tribulation. At the same time, it could calm one’s mind and enhance any inspiration they got.
Afterward, he cupped his hands together and prayed silently.
After praying, his consciousness reappeared inside his small golden core.
The finishing touch for the first small golden core was in the right eye of the hidden composition, [After the Collapse of the Holy City… The All-Destroying Giant.
Song Shuhang willed it, and [The Forever Impregnable Holy City] switched to its hidden form.
In the hidden composition, the giant’s right eye was blank.
Song Shuhang stretched out his fingers, his heart surging with waves of comprehension from his main body. The sound of nature coming from Fairy Creation’s voice also rang in his ears from time to time.
At this moment, he was full of spiritual and mental energy and in great condition.
“This stroke will contain the concept of an ‘enemy’, a powerful enemy that destroyed the Holy City.” Song Shuhang stretched out his hand, and pointed it at the giant’s right eye.
As he did this, the energy of the golden core turned into the last drop of ‘paint’.
This drop of paint fell in the giant’s eye socket, and it spread out like ink falling in water, forming the giant’s pupil.
In the giant’s pupil, a vague figure was reflected.
This figure contained the concept of the ‘enemy’.
And with that, the ‘finishing touch’ was added.
The first small golden core had successfully become a Lustrous Golden Core.
Song Shuhang’s spiritual energy, divine sense, and physique had once again received an overall improvement, and along with that, he got an additional Holy Ape and Scholarly Scripture.
[Tyrannical Saber. The Neverfalling Holy City.]
When he added the finishing touch, a dull roar faintly sounded from the all-destroying giant.
The first small golden core was rather special when compared to the other six small golden cores. It was the only golden core that had been born from Song Shuhang’s life-bound whale core.
As it became a Lustrous Golden Core, some energy was transmitted back to the life-bound whale core.
The life-bound whale core seemed to have been stimulated, and shuddered slightly.
Song Shuhang willed it, and immediately moved his consciousness to where the life-bound whale core was.
However, the life-bound whale core had already stopped shaking, going back to being completely motionless.
Soon after, Song Shuhang’s consciousness left his original dantian.
After adding the ‘finishing touches’ to the Golden Core Compositions of my clone, will my main body also be able to take the same steps? he thought to himself as he continued to wonder what exactly Lady Kunna was planning on doing.
❄️❄️❄️
“Perhaps the stimulation is not enough?” Song Shuhang’s consciousness entered the area of his ‘core reactor’.
The core reactor’s Golden Core Composition, [Star of Creation and Destruction], was a four-grid comic. For its finishing touch, it was also lacking an ‘enemy’—the target that was getting focused on by the Star-Destroying Magical Treasure.
Compared to the eye of the all-destroying giant, the target that was getting focused on by the Star-Destroying Magical Treasure was much larger, and couldn’t be completed with a single stroke.
Song Shuhang lifted his finger, and felt the ‘steel manifestation’ resonating with him in his heart.
He had no idea what had happened to his steel manifestation after it fell into the hands of the ‘Heavenly Emperor’, but since it could still transmit some insights to him from time to time, it showed that it was at least alive.
Song Shuhang drew a big circle at the place where the fire was concentrated.
The Golden Core Composition paint was like ink splashed on paper, spreading out, and forming a warped shadow.
This warped shadow represented the concept of an ‘enemy’ and was around the size of an asteroid. This was the enemy that required the attack of the ‘Star-Destroying Magical Treasure’ in order to be destroyed.
This ‘finishing touch’ was also added.
With that, the fifth small golden core, the core reactor, acquired a lustrous sheen to it.
Subsequently, Song Shuhang’s spiritual energy, divine sense, and physique all improved once again. And with another Holy Ape and Scholarly Scripture added to the bunch, he now had a total of 35 of each.
But this time, the evolution of the core reactor did not stimulate his life-bound whale core in any way.
Song Shuhang thought, It looks like the first small golden core really is quite special.
After turning the first and fifth small golden cores into Lustrous Golden Cores, Song Shuhang was still not done.
His consciousness sank into the area of his second small golden core, appearing before the colorful monster core’s [The Holy Sword that Brings the End to the World].
What was missing in this Golden Core Composition was the final boss, so it was in a similar situation to that of the first and fifth small golden core.
With the accumulated insights from the previous two golden cores, perhaps I’ll be able to add the finishing touch to this small golden core as well.
Song Shuhang’s consciousness descended to the colorful monster core.
He stretched out his finger, and then froze for a while, not being able to bring himself to paint.
Although he knew that it was lacking a final boss, this Golden Core Composition was taken from a different angle from those on the first and fifth small golden core. In this Golden Core Composition, the protagonist was holding the ‘Holy Sword of the End’, standing on the side of the Netherworld Realm with the universe as their enemy.
The point of view was different, resulting in the concept of the ‘enemy’ also being different.
Song Shuhang softly said, “How troublesome.”
Currently, he was only short of the second, third, and fourth small golden core.
He already had a lead for the Sage’s Golden Core Composition on the third small golden core, the virtuous diamond ball. He knew that the opportunity had something to do with Scarlet Pupil.
As for the ‘Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion’ Golden Core Composition on the fourth small golden core, the royal blood demon core, although he didn’t have a lead, he did have some clues. It was likely that he needed to look for either Pavilion Master Chu or Pavilion Master Chu Two. At that time, he might have to go back to the ‘main world’ or the Netherworld Realm to find Pavilion Master Chu Two.
Do I really have to skip the second small golden core, and work on the other two small golden cores first? Song Shuhang scratched his head.
When it came to things that depended on chance, there really was no forcing it.
Song Shuhang’s consciousness withdrew from the small dantian.
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Not bad. Among all the cultivators I’ve met, this finishing touch of yours places you among the top 50 for how orderly it was.”
It had been watching Song Shuhang the entire time.
“Thank you for watching over me, Senior.” Song Shuhang smiled, and used the ❮Saber-Nurturing Technique❯ on it.
“Children are worth teaching.” Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword was very satisfied.
Song Shuhang put down Scarlet Heaven Sword, went to Senior White’s clone by walking on black lotuses, and then tried asking, “Senior White, can you help me connect with Senior White Two?”
