Chapter 459 Bottomless Pit
Chapter 459 Bottomless Pit
Upon returning to Emerald Green Estates, Lachlan couldn't wait to start absorbing the Earth Marvel Soil Crystal from the Yellow Dragon Jade. The biggest challenge in breaking through from Core Formation Realm to Golden Core Realm was activating the cultivator's own "physical attribute."
Golden Core, also known as one's own Golden Core, contained not only highly condensed true energy but also the cultivator's physical attribute.
This was why a Golden Core expert could completely dominate over a Core Formation Realm expert. Because their physical attribute had been activated and awakened, their true energy used for attack and defense contained corresponding attributes.
For example, Lachlan's physical attribute was earth. Once he broke through to the Golden Core Realm, his true energy and field of elixir were filled with earth attributes. His attacks were also mixed with earth attributes which greatly increased their power. This kind of attribute attack was crushing and destructive for cultivators below the Golden Core level.
In order to awaken one's own attributes, besides experiencing the corresponding elemental elements of the heavens and earth over the years, there was a shortcut. That was to obtain treasures that contained the corresponding elemental elements or to absorb a sufficient amount of elemental elements within an environment filled with specific elemental elements, thereby rapidly awakening one's own attributes and achieving a breakthrough.
Since Lachlan was a perfect Uppecia, from the moment he broke through to the Core Formation Realm, his field of elixir completely solidified into a solid form. In terms of the form of the field of elixir, he was already on par with the peak of the later stage of Core Formation.
Once he awakened his own attributes, it was very likely that he would make a leap and directly enter the Golden Core Realm. That was why Lachlan was so delighted when he saw the Earth Marvel Soil Crystal. The rich earth element contained within it might help him awaken his innate attributes.
After a while...
A faint layer of yellow light shimmered on Lachlan's body and gradually dissipated.
"Unfortunately, the quantity of this batch of Earth Marvel Soil Crystal is still too small to support the awakening of my innate attributes. Perhaps I really need to go to Yeginia!"
Lachlan shook his head, not feeling too disappointed. He was already prepared mentally, knowing that the Earth Marvel Soil Crystal alone wouldn't be enough.
Next, he took out the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant that had turned grayish-white from his mustard seed bag. Looking at the pendant, curiosity flickered in Lachlan's eyes.
"I thought it was just a mere keepsake, but now it seems that you might have other magical properties! Today, I will study you carefully."
Lachlan said with a smile.
Previously, when he saw the pendant turn grayish-white, as if it had lost its spiritual energy, he didn't pay much attention to it. But this time, the pendant had reacted and guided him to discover the Earth Marvel Soil Crystal, making Lachlan understand that it was still not an ordinary object.
After all, it contained a dragon soul and various powerful legacies. How could it be an ordinary item?
Lachlan first tried to sense it with his mind, but there was no response. Then he infused a wisp of true energy into it.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Whoosh!
A miraculous scene that amazed Lachlan appeared! The pendant seemed to absorb his true energy like a sponge.
So Lachlan continued to infuse it with true energy. This time, a look of deep astonishment appeared on his face. The grayish-white Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant seemed to be an endless abyss, indiscriminately absorbing his true energy.
Lachlan continued to infuse true energy, and once again, it was unquestionably absorbed.
After more than an hour...
A tired expression appeared on Lachlan's face. He felt significantly weaker, as if his meridians and the true energy in his field of elixir were completely empty. Everything had been poured into this Dragon- shaped Jade Pendant.
Lachlan looked at the pendant with eyes filled with a mix of admiration and frustration.
"Damn it, it's insatiable! It truly is a bottomless pit!"
His face twitched a few times, and he couldn't help but marvel. He wanted to see what changes would occur when he infused enough true energy into the pendant. As a result, it drained him completely, and the pendant still wasn't satisfied.
However, Lachlan did not come
away empty-handed! He was surprised to discover that the true energy he had infused into the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant had not disappeared. With a single thought, he could absorb it back from the pendant, as if the pendant was a storage device for true energy. This unexpected surprise meant that he had a "true energy supply station."
"Now, I can use my Pulse of the Earth technique without worrying about depleting my true energy in one go. If I use the Sky-Cleaving Startled Swan sword technique five times in a row, my true energy will also be exhausted. I can only choose one of these trump cards, which is a bit regrettable. But with the true energy storage function of the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant, I... Could I even perform all nine forms of the Sky-Cleaving Startled Swan if I store enough true energy?"
As Lachlan thought about it, his eyes lit up with excitement. Instead of absorbing the true energy he had infused into the pendant, he began to meditate, using breathing techniques to restore his true energy.
In a hotel room in Edoland, Semaj had conducted investigations for several days and had gathered almost all the necessary information about Lachlan. After all, Lachlan had become somewhat of a celebrity in Edoland, so it wasn't difficult to gather information about him. He called the family head, Trace, to report his findings.
"I've found out! This Landon, whose real name is Lachlan Willis, is indeed not a descendant of the Graham family."
"Oh?" Trace responded, "I suspected as much! How could a small family like the Graham family produce such a monstrous genius?"
Then his tone changed, "But did you find out anything about Lachlan's background?"
Speaking of this, Semaj's voice carried a hint of strangeness, "According to my investigation, it seems that Lachlan doesn't have much of a background."
"Nonsense! How is that possible? How can someone without a background reach the level of a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator in their early twenties? Could his background be too mysterious?"
"Perhaps he has encountered some
extraordinary opportunity. After all,
based on my investigation, a few years ago, this guy started a small factory and later married into a wealthy family's daughter in the local area. His strength... seemed to have suddenly emerged. Before that, he was just an ordinary person. There was a time when his daughter fell seriously ill, and he couldn't afford the medical expenses, so he even sold one of his kidneys. If he had some powerful force behind him, even if he wanted to keep a low profile, wouldn't he seek help from his family when he was desperate to hide his background? So I think the possibility of this guy suddenly obtaining some kind of opportunity is quite high. After all, this situation is not impossible."
As Semaj finished speaking, his tone carried a tinge of murderous intent!
