These flags were enough to surround the whole of Yukon. Unfortunately, Alex couldn’t fathom their use in such a short time. Thus, favonovel.com set the book and flagpoles aside and would investigate further when favonovel.com had the time.
Just then, a cylindrical ray of golden light shone down from the sky, aiming at Alex.
He didn’t hide from it as favonovel.com looked at the golden ray and muttered, “I thought I didn’t have the honor! So it doesn’t matter if someone’s controlling the lightning tribulation. It’ll definitely still follow the rules.”
This golden ray was from the lightning tribulation. As it engulfed Alex, energy poured from it and entered his three thousand golden cores…
The lightning tribulation had ended, and the three thousand golden cores hatched. Each golden core had a huge change. What seemed to be fairies were within, slowly awakening.
“Is this Nascent Soul?” Alex was curious. He looked more attentively. He was then shocked.
It wasn’t Nascent Soul. It was a bunch of seeds.
Alex was dumbfounded. When others advanced from Core Formation to Nascent Soul, they attained realistic infant like spiritual bodies. On the other hand, his three thousand golden cores had turned into seeds.
‘What would I use seeds for?’
‘Can they grow into beautiful ladies?’
“Shelly!”
“Come quick!”
In the face of the problem, Alex summoned Shelly. He understood now that favonovel.com was special. She was his protector and leader who also shared the same goals, which was why favonovel.com could ask for favonovel.com help.
Shelly and Ancestor Bodhi came out together. When they heard about Alex’s situation, they, too, were stunned.
Ancestor Bodhi telepathically spoke to Shelly. “Shelly, this ain’t right, those… Those things in the nascent souls seem to be lotus seeds?”
‘The seeds of the Blue Demonic Lotus?’
This shocked them even further. ‘It’s indeed the seeds of the Blue Demonic Lotus!’
‘How did they become his nascent soul? Could the lotus have planted itself within Alex’s body and grown more lotuses?’ Ancestor Bodhi was afraid of his own guesses.
If that was true, Alex might be in big trouble.
The two discussed in secret. Shelly didn’t dare tell Alex about it. It was just so odd, even favonovel.com didn’t know what was truly going on.
Just then, Alex asked, “So? Have you found out what it is?”
Shelly was calm. “It’s nothing much, just that your training methods are too special, and you can’t exactly compare to the average person. Think about it. Who else could have had three thousand golden cores, then transformed them into three thousand nascent souls?”
“Three thousand is the supreme number. There had been a rare treasure called Jade Disc of Fortune. The original three thousand Colossal Cultivations are written on it. Your three thousand nascent souls are somewhat similar to those.”
Shelly was talking gibberish, but Alex couldn’t refute her.
Nonetheless, Alex obviously felt that his powers had greatly strengthened as favonovel.com advanced from three thousand golden cores to three thousand nascent souls. The two stages were clearly different.
“I wonder if I could beat the tricksters if I fought them now.”
Nonetheless, Alex was satisfied with this ending.
Alex packed his clothes and headed deeper into the sanctuary of Mount Yukon. He quickly reached the barrier where the five largest forces had fought. This should be where the Troop Raising Pond was.
“Should we enter by force?”
Alex had a feeling that if favonovel.com had to use force, favonovel.com should destroy the barrier and unearth the Troop Raising Pond. However… As favonovel.com thought about the possible dangers within, favonovel.com hesitated. It was like opening Pandora’s box, where whatever lay inside could change everything.
“How about we come on another day?”
With the thought, Alex stepped back when the barrier suddenly shook violently. A hand reached out from within and grabbed his neck. With a pull, Alex vanished from where favonovel.com had stood.
