Enduring the immense pressure on him, Zhang Zhidao gritted his teeth and said.
The Essence Solidifying Pills have been passed down for millions of years, with the purpose of hoping for a Peerless Paragon to appear within the Sect, thereby leading the Sect to rise.
So, even though it has been passed down for millions of years, no Sect Master has ever tampered with it.
Every Sect Master has had the goal of revitalizing the Slashing Immortal Sect.
After all, the Slashing Immortal Sect once had a Nascent Soul Realm True Person, and even in the ancient era, they were able to have a say.
"Sect Leader Zhang, I see that you are already old. These can extend your life by ten years, and besides, to lead the Sect to rise, you must first be alive."
"Your Slashing Immortal Sect has been passed down for millions of years now. You wouldn't want the Slashing Immortal Sect's Legacy to be cut off in your hands, would you? If that happens, even if you die, your elders will not forgive you."
"Sect Leader Zhang, this is my last act of mercy; I hope you don't make things difficult for me."
After Ye Lin finished speaking, he took out a jade bottle from his space ring and handed it to Zhang Zhidao.
This was his last act of mercy; if Zhang Zhidao refused, he would slaughter the Sect.
Upon hearing Ye Lin's words, Zhang Zhidao fell silent.
The Essence Solidifying Pills had been passed down for millions of years; no one had consumed them, so keeping them was just for show.
But if he gave them to the person in front of him, the Slashing Immortal Sect's Legacy could continue.
If he didn't give them...
With that thought, Zhang Zhidao painstakingly raised his right hand and grasped the jade bottle.
"Fellow Daoist, please follow me."
Zhang Zhidao said hoarsely.
After saying that, it was as if he had used up all his strength.
Ye Lin followed Zhang Zhidao, walking all the way into the Slashing Immortal Sect.
Entering the Sect's main hall, then a secret room next to it, inside the secret room was a mechanism, and within the mechanism was a small space.
Entering the small space, Zhang Zhidao picked up a jade box and handed it to Ye Lin.
"Fellow Daoist, this is the Essence Solidifying Pills."
"Good, Sect Leader Zhang, your place here is good. I'll borrow this secret room of yours for a while."
After Ye Lin finished speaking, he didn't wait for Zhang Zhidao to reply before pushing him out of the secret room.
Looking at the closed door of the secret room, Zhang Zhidao opened his mouth but said nothing.
He just clutched the jade bottle tightly and walked towards the back mountain, where there was a Grand Elder who was about to die.
The contents of the jade bottle could extend the Grand Elder's life by another ten years.
"As long as I consume this Essence Solidifying Pills, I can begin to Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage, and then when Li Shengli arrives, I'll just cut him down with one sword."
After speaking, Ye Lin sat cross-legged and swallowed the Essence Solidifying Pills.
In an instant, an extremely hot aura surged within his body, and Ye Lin's face turned crimson.
Smoke emanated from his entire body.
"This thing isn't spoiled, is it?"
Ye Lin held it in for a long time before complaining.
At this moment, he felt as if he was being roasted over a fire, his entire body was extremely hot and incredibly uncomfortable.
Ye Lin then dared not be careless and began to fully circulate the Phoenix Nirvana Art, starting to guide this Spiritual Qi.
And his Physical Body was also strengthening at a visible rate.
Three whole days passed, and on this day, Ye Lin's entire body was crimson, looking extremely terrifying.
"It's done, Golden Core Peak Physical Body. I feel so strong now, incredibly strong, incomparably strong."
"Even those Central Continent Prodigies, I dare say that within the Golden Core Stage, no one is my opponent."
Feeling the surging power within his body, Ye Lin couldn't help but exclaim excitedly.
And the current achievement was obtained by Ye Lin using dozens, even hundreds, of times the resources of an ordinary Cultivator.
Ultimately, he only had high Comprehension Ability; his Cultivation speed was not very fast.
Everything stemmed from his low Spiritual Root.
Legend has it that once a supreme Spiritual Root Cultivator begins to Cultivate, they can reach Qi Training Fifth Level or higher overnight.
It's even very possible to reach Golden Core in one year and Nascent Soul in two years.
However, that was only in legends; Ye Lin had never seen it.
But the battle power accumulated from such a Cultivation speed was disastrous.
"Now, I will begin to Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage."
After a moment of silence, Ye Lin spoke.
His accumulation in the Golden Core Stage had already reached an extremely terrifying level, and now, he only needed to Breakthrough to a higher Realm.
Because within the Golden Core Stage, he had already reached the extreme and could no longer advance a single step.
Physical Body, Golden Core Peak; Cultivation, Golden Core Peak; Golden Core Grade, Nine-Colored Golden Core.
Sword Intent, Destruction Sword Intent Fourth Layer.
This achievement, even if placed in the Ancient Era, would be extremely dazzling.
"Breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage doesn't require collecting any treasures; once you comprehend it, you'll naturally Breakthrough the Realm."
"However, breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage is extremely dangerous and requires a large number of Spirit Stones for assistance. Fortunately, I still have some in stock here."
After Ye Lin finished speaking, he took out all the Spirit Stones on his person and placed them in front of him.
In an instant, an extremely rich Spiritual Qi filled the entire secret room.
"Begin Breakthrough."
After Ye Lin finished speaking, he took a deep breath and began to Breakthrough according to the method in the ancient texts.
The first step: Shattering the Golden Core.
This step is extremely dangerous; if not handled well, one could become a cripple, and in worse cases, directly perish.
"Begin."
After Ye Lin finished speaking, he began to mobilize his Spiritual Qi, and his Golden Core also spun rapidly.
Suddenly, terrifying Spiritual Qi surged within Ye Lin's Meridians, all rushing towards the Golden Core.
In an instant, the incredibly solid Golden Core, subjected to external pressure, began to spin rapidly.
Ye Lin continued to maintain this, as the surrounding Spiritual Qi was frantically drawn into his body, beginning to compress the Golden Core.
After a while, Ye Lin found himself in an extremely awkward situation.
That was, his Golden Core was too hard; it wouldn't shatter anytime soon.
The Golden Core of an ordinary Golden Core Stage Cultivator, while not brittle, wasn't particularly hard, but his Golden Core was outrageous; its hardness could rival a Xuan Grade Low-Rank Ore.
The ultimate reason was that his foundation accumulation was too profound.
"I don't believe it. Destruction Sword Intent, come out! Phoenix Fire, come out!"
Ye Lin gritted his teeth. The Phoenix Fire within his body transformed into a fiery red Phoenix, rapidly striking the Golden Core, while the Destruction Sword Intent slowly condensed into a black sword within his body.
Suddenly, within his Dantian, Sword Qi crisscrossed, beginning to impact the Golden Core.
Ye Lin never expected that he would use his two trump cards to shatter his own Golden Core.
Finally, perseverance paid off. No matter how hard the Golden Core was, it couldn't withstand the attacks, and cracks began to appear on its surface.
Ye Lin also experienced intense pain throughout his body, and his aura began to gradually become chaotic.
Around him, the mysterious Origin land began to feed back some mysterious Qi, flowing throughout his body.
Crack, crack, crack.
With a series of crisp sounds, the cracks on the Golden Core's surface grew larger and larger.
The next moment, the entire Golden Core shattered into pieces.
Ye Lin's aura was extremely weak, and his mind felt as if it were being hammered repeatedly.
At this moment, he was extremely sleepy; as long as he closed his eyes, he could fall into a dream.
However, Ye Lin forced himself to stay awake. At such a critical moment, he couldn't sleep; if he closed his eyes, it would all be over.
The Golden Core in his Dantian had been completely crushed into fragments, and these fragments began to rapidly reorganize.
Ye Lin's Dao Platform began to decompose, and streaks of light circulated within his Dantian.
The reorganization speed was extremely fast. Slowly, a small figure with hands placed on his Dantian, legs crossed, and eyes closed began to appear.
And the small figure's face was identical to Ye Lin's.
