《Yin & Yang Pleasure of Cultivation》True Soul Core
Advertisement
Currently, Darcel and Aniela's minds enter a particular state.
Instead of breaking past the seventh level Nascent Core mental block, their Spirit Senses managed to break into sensing Spiritual Essence!
All because they were getting immensely pressured by the Ice golem that Darcel and Aniela fell into a unique state where they harmonize with their rainbow Nascent Core.
They were becoming at one with themselves and the environment around them, approaching a state of true tranquility.
And this process was abruptly started and significantly sped up by the unique blue flower's mysterious energy.
Through the blue flower, their comprehension already being monstrously high and the immense pressure of death, Darcel and Aniela's Spirit Sense broke through and sensed it; Spiritual Essence energy!
Their first touch of Spiritual Essence energy is what caused that sudden blast of powerful Spirit Qi to discharge from them.
Darcel and Aniela know Spiritual Essence energy is actually called Spirit Deification Qi or Spirit Qi for short.
It's energy purely refined by the World and the gateway to forming one's body to take on the more powerful energy of later cultivation realms.
All Qi energies that came before, from Profound Qi to Nascent Qi, were all energies that carried numerous impurities that hiddenly seeped into a cultivator's body.
But it was all necessary to absorb to strengthen a cultivator's mental state, comprehension of cultivation, their bodies, and souls.
And once nearing the True Soul Core realm, a cultivator would need to become at one with their Nascent Core and become serene with the environment surrounding them.
Even with constant life or death battles, this process is something that would take most average cultivators months or even years to do!
Yet Darcel and Aniela are making demonic speed progress that'll cause anybody to question their sanity.
Although, the reason why they're breaking through so fast now was because of the mysterious blue flower energy. It immensely helped with soothing Darcel and Aniela's mental state and Spirit Sense to fall into complete enlightenment.
But still, Darcel and Aniela needed to rely on their own comprehension abilities to make full use of the spur enlightenment.
Darcel and Aniela quickly sensed and comprehended the base properties of Spirit Qi and used a bit of Spirit Qi to smash their seventh level Nascent Core mental block!
'Ka-Cha!'
Like millions of glass shattering, Darcel and Aniela smoothly broke through the mental block! As they could already comprehend Spirit Qi, breaking past the last Nascent Core barrier was nothing to them.
And it was then their Spirit Senses wholly opened up to fully sense the pureness of Spirit Qi.
Spirit Qi rushed to their bodies like a vortex, and unknown to Darcel and Aniela, putrid black grime and filth were expelled from their bodies.
The black grim and filth drilled into the snow staining the ground for a few feet. All of what their bodies were expelling was accumulated impurities of the previous cultivation realms.
But to truly enter the True Soul Core realm, Darcel and Aniela weren't done yet. The step they were in now would be considered a half step in the True Soul Core realm.
And to break through to the next step would requiring fusing Spirit Qi with your own Nascent Core, purifying it.
Once a cultivator manages to do that, they would then proceed to use the Spirit Qi from their Nascent Cores and attach it to their souls. This creates the first soul layer link, and one would officially break into the True Soul Core realm!

A process like this would also normally take average folks months or even years. Even a genius like Joyce Ashless had to take months to breakthrough the True Soul Core realm.
Yet, for Darcel and Aniela, everything came quickly and smoothly.
They used their Spirit Sense to guide the Spirit Q rushing inside their bodies to their rainbow Nascent Core and interjected Spirit Qi into it.
A bright rainbow brilliance spewed from their Nascent Cores, and Darcel and Aniela didn't even need a second before their Spirit Qi fused with their Nascent Cores, completely purifying it.
From there, Darcel and Aniela's Nascent Cores blew rainbow color Spirit Qi into their first Martial vein, which was then directly transferred to their souls.
Their rainbow Spirit Qi stream quickly latched on to their souls, causing tremendous changes for Darcel and Aniela.
'Chi!'
Darkness and Light spewed from Darcel and Aniela as they officially stepped into the True Soul Core realm!
The first layer link True Soul Core mental block was instantly shattered by them, and their prowess made a tremendous leap.
Profound Dark glowing feathers scattered from Darcel's back while bright, gleaming feathers erupted from Aniela's back.
All of their previous injuries were instantly healed up, and the duo stayed still for a couple of seconds.
Even more black grim, and putrid filth expelled from their bodies and got flung out of them like a black rainstorm.
The snow surrounding Darcel and Aniela was dyed in their bodies' black impurities. Yet, the snow the two stood on was strangely sparkling clean.
Neither Darcel nor Aniela moved as the air seemed to slightly shift in the directions of their breaths.
And after the short brief of time, Darcel and Aniela's eyes flung back open, both bursting with tremendous power!
Black blazing flames frantically swirl in their eyes, and the two felt as if they were on a whole new tier of strength.
"Ahhh….now that was a true breakthrough! I feel every joint in my body cracking with pure power!" As she said it, Aniela was cracking her knuckles feeling Spirit Qi smoothly run through her body.
"Everything just feels so….light. With the power we have now, that giant Ice creature will be nothing but a test dummy for us." Darcel was cracking out the kinks in his necks, already feeling pumped up to fight.
The only thing that had stayed the same after their breakthrough was a very slight suppression of their souls.
But whatever force that was affecting their souls was too low in power to affect Darcel and Aniela's combat prowess or movement now.
The suppression was akin to a light tickle for Darcel and Aniela. They didn't even regard it, feeling too caught up in their breakthrough.
However, before they could continue to bask in their glorious breakthrough more, their eyes quickly snapped up to gaze out a mile ahead of them.
"Ah….and as we asked for it. It shall come for us!"
Every fiber in Aniela's body roars with zealous fighting intent. She and Darcel's eyes spotted the massive Ice Golem creature rushing right back at them.
Chilling glowing blue eyes pierce through the misty fog, giving the Ice golem an even more fearsome look.
Despite the surprising attacks Darcel and Aniela land on it, the Ice golem will not rest until these two small pests are dead!
The distance between them and the Ice golem Darcel and Aniela calculated was roughly a mile. They were already impressed in this new realm of strength, seeing as their eyes could more clearly see through the dense misty frog.

A broad battle-hungry smile was quickly splitting into Darcel's face.
He fished out his green scimitar that was still plunged into the ground and said to Aniela, "All at once, let's not hold anything back!"
Though he was curious about their base limits, Darcel knew it still wasn't a time to be playing around. Especially not with a fourth rank Innate Core Spirit Monster!
Aniela as well understood this thought as she quickly pulled out her scimitar from the ground, saying, "I just hope it doesn't die too quickly!"
A bright white glow immediately shrouded Aniela's bloodline arm, and a profound Darkness glow enriched Darcel's bloodline arm.
'Chi!'
Snow blasted around the duo, swirling around them like a chaotic hurricane as they unleashed their powerful bloodline state!
Now when Darcel released his Yin Spiritual State, streaks of Darkness cackled out of his bloodline arm like ferocious lightning.
While when Aniela unleashed her Yang Spiritual State, streaks of white Light discharged from her like violent electricity.
Moreover, their exotic tattoo markings gained an even more eye capturing bright radiance.
Promptly then, Darcel and Aniela blasted off towards the Ice golem creature, splitting the snow in half as they rushed towards it. Swirls of small wisps of black flames spewed from their feet, melting through the snowy land also.
While Darcel and Aniela sprinted off, they picked up on a significant notable difference in how they move their bodies. Everything just felt so….lighter and completely natural.
There was no stiff or wasted movement in any of their steps.
Both the duo and the Ice golem speeds were swift, arriving within a few meters apart in several seconds. However, when the Ice golem got close, it was taken for a tremendous shock!
The Ice golem powerful fourth rank Innate Core aura had torn through the dense misty fog and tried to crush down on Darcel and Aniela.
Yet, immediately when trying to do so, the Ice golem felt a tremendous aura violently push back its own!
Darcel and Aniela smirked as they watched the Ice golem glowing blue eyes seemingly widen.
They were mainly focusing on powering their legs for speed, but now that they were close, Darcel and Aniela fully blasted out the full extent of their bloodline auras!
"Nnng!!"
Weird sounds spewed from the Ice golem while its body was crushed by two unfathomable auras. Instantly, when Darcel and Aniela went all out, its own fourth rank Innate Core aura was easily shredded and vaporized.
The Ice golem fourth rank Innate Core prowess was nothing but child's play in front of the current Darcel and Aniela.
However, the most significant suppression didn't come from the power of their aura. Rather the Ice golem soul got immensely suppressed!
The Ice golem felt like it couldn't even breathe with the pressure Darcel and Aniela's soul blasted out. Once it had abruptly stopped, the Ice golem struggled to move its body.
Upon trying to do so, despair swirled the Ice golem's mind.
Its movement became incredibly sluggish, to the point where its speed became even slower than a snail!
Watching the Ice golem struggle to even lift its arm caused Darcel to cruelly smile at it. He had acted upon this opportunity and focused all of his Spirit Sense onto the Ice golem.
Instantly a shadow spewed from the Ice golem feet, and Darkness tendrils swiftly wrapped the Ice golem up tightly.
The Ice golem was immobilized entirely like it was nothing, but its mind couldn't believe this reality.
Just mere seconds ago, these mere little seventh level Nascent Core ants could barely even tank one of its punches.
So just how was this sudden power surge even possible?!
And as valid as the Ice golem thoughts were, it simply didn't understand Darcel and Aniela's true potential. Even before the breakthrough, Darcel and Aniela could've contended with the Ice Golem, as shown by their first dual attack.
But because they were so focused on getting the treasure flower, it allowed them to be open for a direct attack. And even then, in a critically injured state, the duo was able to fight off the Ice golem.
Yet, none of that matters now.
More so than the previous levels, Darcel and Aniela's prowess currently simply can't be compared to what they wield in the Nascent Core realm.
The breakthrough between Nascent Core to True Soul Core was on an entirely different level from the previous great realm breakthroughs.
It's what many cultivators dub the first true step to the mysteries of the World.
And Darcel and Aniela were genuinely feeling the mysterious yet wonderful effect of the True Soul Core realm. Their bodies were without impurities. Their souls could now be used to an even greater extent, and their bloodlines underwent tremendous changes.
For every major realm breakthrough Darcel and Aniela experience, their bloodline has and will always drastically change and improve, providing them with unprecedented prowess.
And in their next move, Darcel and Aniela will know just how much they grew in such a short amount of time.
After wrapping the Ice golem up in his Darkness tendrils, Darcel arrived right near the monster and quickly jumped towards its colossal head.
Darcel was as swift as the wind becoming a black blur as he poured Spirit Qi into his scimitar.
The Ice golem was utterly helpless against Darcel; its only eyes could only spot a black bur flashing right in front of it.
'Chi!'
And with a clean, quick strike, Darcel tore through the Ice golem neck like it was made of paper!
The Ice golem head flew high into the air, spraying out a chilling blue liquid.
At the same time, Aniela charged right towards the Ice golem torso. And much like Darcel, she easily shredded through the Ice golem incredibly robust Ice body!
While tearing through its torso, Aniela quickly snapped her fingers before appearing out the other side of it.
'Sssch!!'
The sounds of sizzling flames slithered into Aniela's ears as she turned around to the Ice golem. But right then, she watched as raging black flames quickly spread throughout the Ice golem body.
In an instant, the Ice golem's colossal body was promptly turned into black ash under Aniela's powerful black flames.
"Well, well, well. I suppose this a good rough estimation of our new incredible strength." Darcel remarked as he landed back into the soft snow, and his eyes locked with hugely smiling Aniela.

The Swarm
Anthony had been looking forward to playing the hottest new virtual reality game. When he put the VR helmet on he was met with a prompt asking him if he wanted to take a test to become a swarm knight. Thinking that this was one of the classes in the game he accepted. Instead of finding himself in the game, Anthony found that he was transported to a different planet. A planet where he would learn the greater truth of the universe. Everything was based on magic in the universe. Except that magic was based on nanorobots, called the swarm, that had been created through highly advanced technology. Genetics determined the access level and the amount of control that someone could wield over the swarm, and therefore their status in this society. Long ago Earth had been cutoff from the swarm. Now that it had been rediscovered, Earth would be reintegrated into the swarm. Unfortunately when that happened all the current technology on Earth would fail and be replaced with the ability to use magic. In effect, it would be the system apocalypse. As someone able to control the swarm, Anthony found himself in the unique position to influence how Earth was reintegrated into the swarm. Perhaps he could change things enough to save most of the people on Earth. But first he would have to learn how to control the swarm and become one of the leaders in the society he found himself in. Warning: If this fiction was a movie I'd rate it somewhere between PG-13 and R for occasional scenes of violence, gore, and nudity.
