Rebirth Of The Urban Immortal Cultivator-Chapter 1145 - Through Life and Death

The Golden Core was shattered.

A tiny crack appeared on the Nine Transformations Deity Wheel. That Deity Wheel—carved with the Xuan Wu, the Red Sparrow, the Kun Peng and the Grand Dao floating in the air like a moon—immediately seemed to have an energy that wasn’t perfect and free anymore.

Chen Fan’s heart was as cold as ice.

He knew that there was no turning back anymore at this point; he would need to go through the formation of his Nascent Soul. What was a Golden Core? “Golden” represented immortality and with the word “golden” in the name of the Golden Core meant that it was the most perfect, hardest and most lasting thing in the world. Although the Golden Core of a normal cultivator might break or dim after a few thousand years, and even the Golden Core of a Divine Prince might not make it through dozens of thousands of years…

Chen Fan’s deity-grade Golden Core was something truly immortal.

Even when a Soul Formation Grand Cultivator died, his Nine Transformations Deity Wheel would probably still float in the sky like the sun and the moon. Even if Chen Fan’s Divine Soul faded, his body decayed and his life stopped, that Golden Core would still exist. If an old Grand Cultivator grabbed Chen Fan’s Golden Core, he would easily be able to make a supreme treasure on par with a Divine Treasure!

Such an incredibly hard Golden Core had suddenly been shattered. It was an extremely serious problem even if it was just a tiny crack.

So, if Chen Fan was unable to form the Nascent Soul at once, he would return to the level he was at a few years before and suffer an unprecedented blow, having only 80% of his Dharma Power left. That was why forming the Nascent Soul was so difficult. The higher his level and the more stable his foundation, the more barriers he would encounter when forming the Nascent Soul.

“Keep going!”

—-

Chen Fan’s eyes had no emotions at all and his calm mind didn’t have a hint of panic or fear. He only kept going step by step and continued propping the nine black holes open. He attracted the energy in those nine high-level worlds to himself, pouring it in his sea of energy.

Boom!

The nine black holes that used to be the size of a thumb expanded to the size of a bowl right now. All kinds of energy shot towards Chen Fan like high-pressure water guns. A few times more beams of golden light also appeared and more and more Dharma Laws of the Deity Realm came out of them, flying into Chen Fan’s Nine Transformation Deity Wheel.

The nine worlds all counted on the supreme Deity Realm to exist and were far above the human world. There might even be some Sacred Beasts and Deity Beasts. So, those worlds were filled with the energy from the Deity Realm and carried a lot of Dharma Laws of the Deity Realm. They had even denser and purer Essence Qi than in the human world.

However, Chen Fan also had to pay the price after opening the nine worlds forcefully.

“Whoosh!”

His crystal clear Deity Body started burning and the endless vitality turned into layers of fierce fire. The Deity Soul made of gold also let out light golden fire. His energy, vitality and spirit also burnt at the same time, supporting the formation of the Nascent Soul and opening the nine passages to attract even more powerful energy down at the same time.

Poof!

Even Chen Fan was a bit overwhelmed at this moment. Two drops of blood dripped down from his ears and nose, then immediately evaporated into powerful vitality and went into the energy.

If his foundation wasn’t incredibly strong, having an initial-success Deity Body, a Nine Transformation Golden Core and a supreme Deity Soul, any Nascent Soul Cultivator would instantly be dried.

Those nine worlds were way beyond the human world.

Only those with the power of at least the level of Grand Cultivators or Saints could open them. Even though the nine black holes Chen Fan opened were only the size of a bowl, he still had to pay a heavy price.

Crack, crack!

The power from the nine worlds pressed onto Chen Fan’s flesh, creating some screeching sound like the piercing sound of a steel frame being crushed by something heavy.

Right when he continued burning his Divine Soul and vitality.

A clear crackling sound came and the second crack appeared on the Nine Transformation Deity Wheel.

Just like a dam, when the first and second crack appeared, the entire dam would soon collapse no matter how tough it was. All the efforts paid could be wasted at the last stage!

Then.

The third, forth, fifth… a hundredth crack also appeared!

The Nine Transformation Deity Wheel floating like the moon couldn’t stand it anymore. Its eternal, immortal, indestructible energy of freedom and perfection was gone. It expanded to a few times larger and filled the entire energy sea.

“Crack!”

A tiny golden fragment fell off from it and dropped into the sea of energy, turning into some powerful energy. Then, the second, third and fourth fragment!

The Deity Wheel drawn with the nine Divine Forms completely collapsed like a decayed towering ancient temple.

As the Golden Core broke, Chen Fan’s energy immediately became messy. The aura around his body kept shining and disappearing, while the fire became more fierce sometimes and shrank sometimes. He was apparently in a turbulent moment. Many powerful energy surged out of the Deity Wheel and filled Chen Fan’s entire dantian and Qi Sea. The energy even ran out of the Qi Sea and moved around his organs and limbs.

“Poof!”

Blood even oozed out of Chen Fan’s nose and ears. In the end, he spurted out blood from his mouth, which then turned into a sharp golden sword, shooting dozens of feet away.

Whoosh!

Chen Fan’s face was light gold in color right now and his energy had dropped from the peak-stage Nascent Soul Level all the way to the Golden Core Level, even having the sign of lowering to the Connate Level. The seriousness of his injury was completely beyond anyone’s imagination. Even when he suffered from karma after using the supreme forbidden Divine Power to look for Fang Qiong and his parents on the top of Yun Wu Mountain back then, he didn’t have such severe injury.

Chen Fan’s body was now like a big furnace with water boiling and steam billowing out, which was about to blow his entire body and Divine Soul to ashes anytime.

Chen Fan also had to prop the nine passages open, resist the azure thunderbolts of Dharma Laws, organize his True Essence, refine the Dharma Laws and form the Nascent Soul at the same time.

He wouldn’t have hung on if his Deity Body wasn’t incredibly powerful. His skin was fair and his every bone and organ was as tough as Quasi-Divine Treasures like an extremely hard copper pea. Even a Soul Formation Grand Cultivator might not be able to kill Chen Fan with an attack and would only make him spurt out blood.

“No wonder there haven’t been a lot of people who could form a nurtured deity-grade Golden Core in history. If the body isn’t tough enough, cultivators wouldn’t be able to get through the stage where the Golden Core breaks and the Nascent Soul completes!” Chen Fan realized.

Even Chen Fan was almost overwhelmed.

Crack!

Countless Heavenly Medicines and Quasi-Divine Medicines he saved in the last few years had to fly out of the Dinghai Pearl in his arms. When they were above his head, they shattered and turned into drops of medicine juice, nourishing the body and Divine Soul. At the same time, Chen Fan took a deep breath and gathered the nine Deity Laws and his energy, vitality and spirit in his body together. This last step would determine his success!

“Form!”

As Chen Fan shouted.

The Nine Transformation Deity Core completely cracked and the True Essence, Dharma Power, Divine Soul and vitality around Chen Fan shrank. The fire on his body immediately disappeared, gathering only in his sea of energy.

The space and time in the entire Origin Divine Palace seemed to have frozen.

Only Chen Fan was floating in the air cross-legged like an old stone statue.
