Reincarnation Alchemists
chapter 48
Opening the Dantian was only the first step. The next step is the most important.
That was, to solidify the Origin Power into a high speed rotating core.
It's like putting a motor on someone's dantian. With mental commands, an origin core that spun at high speed would produce energy that would explode with a terrifying attack.
How could the Elemental Gathering Element be able to easily destroy a Body Refining Tier? It was because once the origin core was formed, energy would gush out like a flood from it. Even if two warriors had accumulated the same amount of Origin Power, the person who actually formed the origin nucleus would have a faster and stronger attack, which had an overwhelming advantage over his opponent.
Ling Han opening his Dantian could only be considered as half way towards the Element Gathering Tier. He only raised the upper limit of his internal storage from Origin Power – power increase depending on whether he could form the origin core or not.
The number of those in the ninth layer of the Body Refining Tier who had been stuck at this step was unknown, but it was obviously enormous.
Martial artists of the Element Gathering Tier could form a total of nine origin cores. Once they managed to form a ninth, they would be able to begin the process of breaking through to the Gushing Spring Tier.
However, to Ling Han, forming the origin core was only a small matter. After all, he had already done it nine times in his last life.
He began to form a nucleus. The powerful Origin power moved, gathered, intertwined, and fused. He was very familiar with this process and, very quickly, the Origin Power in his body condensed into a core shape, as small as a hair.
But, he instantly experienced a great shock, because within his dantian, there were actually five origin cores!
How is this possible!
He had just broken through to the Element Gathering Tier, and now he had already reached the fifth layer of the Element Gathering Tier?
No, no, no. .. This is impossible, because these five original nuclei are too small, and still very far from reaching its peak of – he never heard that anyone had ever managed to form five origin nuclei in one go and simultaneously expand them to their peak form.
Moreover, the gap between these five origin cores was too small. They have mutual attraction and repulsive relationships, forming a delicate balance. They also differ – colors of gold, green, white, red and black, respectively.
Ling Han's heart skipped a beat. It is a solid form of five different alignment elements. These five cores each represent Gold, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth.
Could a Spirit Base with the alignments of multiple elements be able to form multiple origin cores?
‘That's not true!’
Ling Han carefully examined them and concluded that these five different origin cores had reached a perfect balance. If one of these five cores became slightly stronger, it would destroy that delicate balance. Thus, there would only be one origin core, the strongest one, which could “survive” in the end, whereas the other origin core would be pushed to the side and destroyed.
Following this line of deduction, in order for one to form two, three, four, or a maximum of five origin cores, the leveling of the elements from their Spirit Base would have to achieve a perfect balance. This will allow the nuclei of origin that have been formed to also be perfectly balanced with each other, no one can swallow the other and vice versa.
There are many in this world who have two elemental alignments, or even three or four. But those who have multiple elemental alignments and actually manage to achieve a perfectly balanced relationship between multiple elemental alignments in their Spirit Base are few and far between. So, it was a pitiful few that could actually have two or three origin cores.
In his last life, apart from burying himself in alchemy, Ling Han also buried himself in cultivation. He took part in very few actual battles, and thus not coming into contact with martial artists who had many original sources was not a strange thing. Moreover, some origin nuclei can be anyone's hidden trump card to turn the table and get a win, and who will reveal their trump card easily?
‘Five origin cores will merge together to form a large origin core, meaning that I will have Origin Power five times stronger than anyone else!’ Thought Ling Han. This is something very scary.
For a martial artist to fully deplete the Origin Power within his body, they would require at least a hundred moves, or even thousands of moves. But should he be able to expend this energy at five times the speed?
This meant that the power of each attack would increase by fivefold!
If the power of Element Gathering Tier is indicated by the numbers, the first layer will be ‘one’, then the second layer will be ‘two’ and the third layer will be ‘tiga’, the second layer will be , but the fourth layer will be ‘enam’. There will be a jump after every three layers, separating the entire tiers into three main stages: the beginning, middle and end respectively.
With a representation like this, the core advantages of the Five Elements origin were clear without being comparable.
‘No, no, no, the Five Elements of Nuclear Origin have also reached a perfect balance as they are interdependent, so the power they can produce is definitely not just five, but six times, or even ten times stronger! Should I reach the top of the first layer of the Element Gathering Tier, I can at least fight on par with someone at the fourth layer of the Element Gathering Tier!
How much power will I have .. I must reach the top of the first layer of the Element Gathering Tier to find out. ‘
So this was the true power of an Immortal-grade Spirit Base!
However, to simultaneously expand and strengthen a five origin core would definitely be much slower than just developing one, so the cultivation speed advantage of an Immortal-grade Spirit Base was thus evenly distributed. Moreover, to be able to release Origin Power at five times the speed would require the space within his Dantian to be just colossal. Otherwise, he would only have the opportunity to make a few moves before expending all of the stored energy in his body, so how could he continue playing like this?
‘No problem if there is no advantage of fast cultivation speed. In any case, I will gain strength that will make me practically invincible among all those who are in the same cultivation level in return for it. Besides, I am an Alchemy Emperor, so I can still maintain a high speed of cultivation and progress through tiers. Even if I could only reach Heaven Tier at the age of two hundred again, it would still be the fastest record in history!
