Douluo: I, the Sun God

Chapter 149 The Golden Elixir is Complete, My Fate is Not in the Hands of Heaven
The red-gold flame continued to burn the red-gold sphere. There was a golden black hole inside it, and red-gold space cracks appeared in the dantian, continuously absorbing the power of heaven and earth around it.

The originally invisible and intangible power of heaven and earth in the outside world now turned into white water and flowed into Xu Yang's body.

"This isn't a golden elixir; it's just another kind of soul core. A true golden elixir is one that condenses all of the body's energy, spirit, and vitality into a single point, just like the tiny dot at the beginning of time that gave rise to the vast universe. It's completely unified, not just a solid mass, so it must continue to be compressed."

Now all the energy and spirit in his body are gathered together in his lower dantian, but they are not condensed at all and completely merged into one. Therefore, the red-gold sphere in his body is not a golden elixir, but just a soul core.

Xu Yang was furious, and the spatial fluctuations in his Dantian became stronger, causing the golden soul core in his Dantian to compress again, from the size of a fist to the size of a walnut, then to the size of a broad bean, and finally to the size of a sesame seed.

At this time, the black hole in the soul core became extremely unstable and began to collapse, eventually turning into a red-gold light spot.

With the appearance of the light spot, the sesame-sized soul core was instantly absorbed by the light spot, and even the spiritual fire that had been burning outside was completely absorbed. The power of heaven and earth from the outside world also rushed into Xu Yang's body frantically, even forming an energy storm.

Outside, in the place where Xu Yang was in seclusion, there was a white energy vortex that absorbed everything around it and crushed it into energy that was absorbed by Xu Yang.

Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, Madam Ning and others were all standing on the periphery, looking at the energy vortex with worry.

"Uncle Jian, what's happening with Yang'er now? Do you have any way to help him?!" Ning Fengzhi used his mental power to sense many times, but every time he extended his mental power, it would be shattered by this energy vortex, and he had no idea what was going on inside.

He is now very worried about Xu Yang's situation, but at the same time he is also blaming Xu Yang for messing around again and disregarding his own safety.

"This energy is so strong it's rare in the world. I can't even sense what's going on inside!" Having said this, Chen Xin smiled and continued, "However, Feng Zhi, Qing'er, you two don't have to worry. Although this energy is violent, it's very stable. It's all converging towards the center, and it must have been absorbed by Yang'er."

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi and Madam Ning quickly shifted their gaze over and discovered that it was indeed as Chen Xin had said. The violent white vortex stopped growing after reaching a certain size. It was not because the vortex no longer attracted the power of heaven and earth, but because the attraction and absorption were in a state of balance, which prevented the vortex from growing larger.

Suddenly, the speed of the white vortex began to increase, and its size was rapidly decreasing, and Xu Yang's figure was looming inside.

"It's about to break through!" Chen Xin said.

Xu Yang's breakthrough also reached a critical moment. The light spot in his dantian continued to absorb energy. After absorbing an unknown amount, the light spot finally began to grow larger and turned into a pill the size of a sesame seed.

This pill is so perfect. Xu Yang has never seen such a perfect sphere. There is no so-called energy black hole inside it. It is just a golden pill.

After this golden elixir absorbed all the soul power in Xu Yang's body, it began to spit out red-gold soul power, which soon filled the dantian, and then was transported along the meridians in the body together with the golden elixir.

The soul power exuded by the golden elixir wasn't the solid soul power unique to Titled Douluo, but rather a higher-level soul power. Based on the soul power before the breakthrough, the conversion ratio between the two reached a staggering 100:1. This meant that soul power had to be % viscous, as sticky as lead and mercury, just one step away from becoming solid, to be transformed into a new soul power. This soul power surpassed solid soul power in every aspect, especially in terms of cultivation. Because it didn't require the solid soul power to coexist in three states: solid, liquid, and gas, as other Titled Douluo did, the new soul power circulated through the meridians more smoothly, simply, and easily.

Every time the golden elixir completes a cycle, it absorbs a large amount of the power of heaven and earth and transforms it into this new soul power, which is then absorbed by the body and soul, allowing the life level to begin to evolve. This is the first time Xu Yang has had this feeling in all these years.

He did not stop practicing because his body and soul were craving for this new soul power. They greedily absorbed this new soul power to transform his life.

If Xu Yang was a mortal before, he is now shedding his mortal body and moving towards a higher level. Just talking about lifespan, even if he does not use subtle control, he can sense that he can live for at least a thousand years, and his age is still increasing. This is the proof.

"This is the golden elixir, this is my destiny!"

Feeling the evolution of life, Xu Yang worked even harder to practice the Great Sun Heart Sutra, allowing the golden elixir to circulate in the meridians, continuously generating new soul power for his body and soul to absorb.

It was not until then that Xu Yang understood why the trajectory of the Great Circulation had not changed after the seventh level of Xuantian Gong. That was because the Great Circulation represented perfection, and the energy circulation in the body was close to a perfect state. The next step in the practice was to transform the power in the body, thereby transforming himself and evolving his life form. This was the path of practice.

The energy vortex in the outside world had already begun to shrink the moment the golden elixir was formed, until it disappeared, but Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin and others could still feel that the endless power of heaven and earth and the power of the sun were being absorbed into Xu Yang's body.

They knew that Xu Yang's practice was not over yet, but they were no longer worried. After they all breathed a sigh of relief, they continued to busy themselves with their own things. Chen Xin was only one step away from a breakthrough, so he also went back to continue practicing.

Even though he had just broken through, which was the fastest stage of life transformation, Xu Yang sat cross-legged there to practice for two months. He did not drink a drop of water during these two months, but his complexion was still extremely healthy.

During this process, Xu Yang also made new discoveries. The first was the soul bone. Although the soul bone was absorbed by him, it was attached to his bones in a special way and did not completely merge with himself, similar to the legendary magic weapon.

He can now manifest it at any time, and can also remove it from his body without harming himself.

However, Xu Yang would not do so, because after his breakthrough, the head soul bone, which was originally impossible to grow, could also improve its quality under the nourishment of the new soul power.

The quality of the external soul bone, which can be improved with the soul master's practice, even exceeds that of Ning Fengzhi's 100,000-year-old torso bone.

The quality of Flame Control's right arm bone has also reached the level of a hundred thousand year soul bone.
