Dual Cultivation God Returns chapter-625-core-reformation

As soon as he came back from the palace Wu Long helped Yu Huan create pills from the Violet Retribution Hydrangeas, which purpose was to strengthen the Yin Qi and Yin Root of his ladies. Though he only lent her some of his Soul Power and Spiritual Qi, as they have discussed the methods she would use and the recipe for quite some time before.

Most recipes including this ingredient for Mortal Grade pills actually deliberately lowered its potency, as this flower's power was simply too tyrannical for use in Nine Mortal Realms.

However, Wu Long did the complete opposite, enhancing the effects of the medicine with the methods from recipes of Profound Grade pills, though not completely reaching that level yet as it required Profound Qi to refine those pills.

The reason he did that though, was that his women did not need to directly ingest the pills, or struggle to refine medicinal energy they could not handle, instead, the one to eat them was Wu Long, refining that energy with his Chaos technique and sending it to them through their bond.

This allowed them to receive a constant personalized stream of medicinal energy, given as much of it as each of them could handle until they received all of it over a period of several days.

The next two weeks after that passed in a leisurely manner as Wu Long and his beauties were enjoying long dates, both in groups and separately.

And though he could feel the focused surveillance it did not bother him. In truth, he would not hesitate to leave this island and move toward the Cloud Piercing Continent at this point, were it not for the fact he was waiting for something.

And as he waited, he also gradually started making preparations for advancing, since he had time to focus on his cultivation. After dates, he would cultivate with his ladies, but not make any advancements yet, only accumulating the recently enhanced Yin Qi and sealing it away for later use.

However, the fact he was making these preparations did not mean that the dates were without meaning as well, as he truly enjoyed time spent in the company of his beauties.

The culture of the Kingdom was unique in its own right, framed by thousands of years of independence and relative isolation, as well as shaped by the fact it was a naval country.

The resulting experience of these two weeks was quite romantic as they explored the local customs and the lore of dating, that existed in every culture, with subtle differences and sometimes unique flavors.

Things like sending a gift necklace made from a certain coral, eating certain food with one's loved one, or spending time in sweet talks on a certain square or by some special fountain.

His dates also varied depending on who he was with, as with Ye Ling, they resembled an old couple that did not need anything, simply each other's presence as they walked the streets and alleys of the city or simply sat side by side, which was also increasingly true for Sui Luxiao, Xue Bing, Shen Min, Cao Xiang and Wei Lan, while when he was with Wu Mengqi, or Cao Mei, Song Lingfei and Gong Cui, they would go to the spots that young couples loved.

Nie Xiwang and Luo Mingyu loved spending time in long conversations with him, not necessarily about the Dao but about everything and anything, while Feng Yi and Bi Rui preferred more active and lively places with a lot of people and vibrant life of the city.

There were also those like Yu Huan and Lian Zhiqiu who preferred working on their respective fields indoors and had little interest in local scenery and outdoor activities. The latter, and her disciple Hua Ziyan would rather spend more time cuddling with him in bed than go on a date. Though all three of them including the alchemist were not completely against going once in a while as well, in which case they would not really care what they did.

Of course, it all was relative as there were times when any of the ladies would look like a young maiden when with Wu Long, or be in a mood for a quiet and calm evening in his company. And the love for the time spent with him behind closed doors was not limited to one or two of them at all.

The group dates were more often though, as they would usually talk among each other in small groups, and occasionally run up to Wu Long to be pampered with a kiss or simply share something interesting.

Being the only one left who had yet to share bed with Wu Long, Song Lingfei felt some pressure, but was calmed by Wu Long who told her that he does not want her to do something she is not ready for, especially if she feels obligated to.

Though that did not mean she completely forgot about it, even visiting Yu Huan and Xue Bing who were among those who delayed sharing bed with Wu Long for advice, which only further told her it had to come naturally, or would hold no meaning.

Though of course Yu Huan's account of how it came to it did put a blush on the face of the former Imperial Princess.

By the end of the two weeks, Wu Long have collected all the Yin Qi of his beauties, and after another two-week-long closed-

doors cultivation with the members of the Frozen Garden Palace who as a result have all finally reached Mortal Transcendence Realm, he has finally accumulated enough to attempt his breakthrough.

He did not advance while cultivating with them either, continuing to accumulate all that Yin Qi, as the following process required caution even from him.

After all, the more powerful and impressive the core was, the more complex and dangerous the procedure of Core Reformation was.

There was another aspect of the process that was crucial, which was condensation and compression of all residual parts of cultivation within Dantian into the core.

Even as he completed his core when he reached the gate of Core Reformation Realm, there was still a vortex of Spiritual Qi rotating around it in his Dantian which was first formed in Revolving Qi Realm, with some small crystallizations within the rotating mist of Spiritual Qi left from the Foundation Building Realm.

With each initial breaking of the core in the first three Minor Realms, it is this vortex and small crystal particles that would be filling the gaps.

The core itself was now rotating at a slower speed than the vortex, but with each cycle of reformation in the middle three Minor Realms its speed would rise to eventually reach and then surpass the speed of rotation of the vortex of Spiritual Qi.

That speed would then cause a condensation and compression of the core itself in the latter three Minor Realms, as the core would become two times smaller in size by the end.

By the peak of Core Reformation Realm, that vortex of Spiritual Qi would be completely gone, and only the rapidly spinning core would remain, with concentrated streams of Spiritual Qi spreading from it toward his meridians.

The vortex of Slaughter Qi would also enter inside the very outer layer of the core that would be especially formed for it, but that would happen only after the core is fully reformed.

After making ample preparations, adjusting his condition, as well as placing pills made by Yu Huan in front of him, he prepared to breakthrough, as the outside of the pavilion he rented for this purpose was heavily guarded by all of his Dao Family and the Frozen Garden Palace.
