Fortunately, Xiaomao could wear any equipment regardless of restrictions. He received the basic buff and increased his DEF stats by five million! Combining with his Sigma Buff, he was confident that no male immortal could one-shot him unless they had a cheating sword domain like Wei Huang.
After putting everything on, Xiaomao rechecked the progress of his retainers, using the retainer status menu.
Lucky, 712
Shepherd, Level 1,000
Andrew, Level 699
Peter, Level 678
James, Level 999
John, Level 900
Alice, Level 9,999
Madoka, Level 20,000
Noticing that John''s level rose by one, Xiaomao was relieved. At least, he would be grouped with the level-999 monsters here, and he wouldn''t be alone anymore.
However, Xiaomao had some concerns. Lucky''s level was a tier higher than Andrew and Peter, so she would be stranded. As for Shepherd, Xiaomao was surprised. Although he knew that Shepherd was one of the protagonists, he didn''t expect him to ascend so fast.
Since Xiaomao couldn''t help them other than providing them with cultivation resources and essence cores to boost their levels and EXP, he closed the menu and focused on himself. He shut his eyes and meditated, digesting the new information that he had learned from Wei Huang''s memory.
Soul Formation Stage was the array of his elemental cores and the formation of his Dao Avatars. At the next stage, the Mahayana Stage, restructured his physical body to bepatible with elemental essence, which was necessary for the constetion stages.
The breakthrough requirement was simple. Xiaomao needed to convert one of the elemental continents in his pocket dantian into a star core, which would be the foundation of a ster constetion star in the immortal stages!
Xiaomao could always drain more elemental essence from clones of Undine, Nymph, or Alice. However, this method had its limits as Xiaomao had to please his dual-cultivation partners and require their consent before he could drain their energy, which was troublesome.
The second option was the orthodox method. Xiaomao had countless cultivation resources, and he could always manually absorb them by using Taotie and Mimir''s cultivation method.
Xiaomaobined the tricks he learned from Mimir''s bibles, Taotie''s techniques, and Wei Huang''s memory. He forged a new method to advance to the 9th stage and attain level 900 without relying on the game system. He brought out an elemental orb from one of the spatial rings he got from the treasure room, unlocked it, and ejected an elemental orb, which was a tier-3 cultivation resource for immortals.
Instead of using it directly and letting the game system boost his stats, Xiaomao drew a drop of elemental essence to his dantian.
RUMBLE
His stomach churned as the dantian rejected the elemental essence, but Xiaomao forcefully digested it. As soon as the energy entered his pocket dantian, every elemental core hummed, attracting the energy into themselves.
The tug-of-war started as all Dao Avatars inside the pocket dantianpeted to get the energy!
Noticing how the process was not that hazardous, Xiaomao drew more energy to feed his needy Dao Avatars.
.
Cultivators often enjoyed cultivation as they could sense the progress within themselves. They also usually forgot about the flow of time.
Xiaomao was no different. He forgot that he was cultivating in the real world with his real body as he was so absorbed in drawing more random element essence into his dantian to feed his elemental cores and the soul formation.
Unfortunately, the fun was cut short.
One minute passed.
CLANK<novelnext></novelnext>
The elemental orb in Xiaomao''s hand crumbled to dust as the energy inside was depleted. Xiaomao grumbled and brought out another orb from the spatial ring and resumed cultivating.
Then, one minuteter…
CLANK
Once more, the second orb vanished like smoke, but Xiaomao wasn''t satisfied.
"I''ll just stack these orbs in the room and devour everything, munya!"
Xiaomao ejected a thousand orbs around him at once and resumed meditating. This time, Xiaomao became the center of a whirlpool. He sucked countless drops of elemental essence into his skin and orifices, directing them into his pocket dantian.
CLANK
CLANK
CLANK
One minuteter, 50 of the orbs ran out of energy. In less than half an hour, all orbs turned into dust.
Xiaomao snapped open his eyes, annoyed. He was still hungry for more.
"I haven''t even used the NIHIL method yet, but these orbs aren''t enough, munya."
Frustrated, Xiaomao pulled out the hydra heart and used it instead despite the risks. He drew a strand of Providence Qi from the heart and ate it!
"NIHIL!"
BOOM
The strand of providence Qi was too powerful for a mortal to consume. As soon as it entered his body, it ran rampant and destroyed his blood vessels along the way.
Xiaomao''s arteries shattered. His heart erupted, and his spinal cord cracked!
Despite the injuries, Xiaomao cackled like a madman.
"YES, MUNYA! THIS IS IT! THIS IS THE PUSH!"
Xiaomao''s Blood Dao Avatar came out. The Blood Oni version of Xiaomao sat behind his master and pushed his palms against Xiaomao''s back.
At first, Xiaomao''s health bar dropped by 70%. After receiving the Dao Avatar''s assistance, all damaged organs, bones, and arteries were healed. The HP regenerated back to full health!
DING
DING
DING
Xiaomao didn''t notice. His level was already in the mid-900s. His attributes kept rising, and the rest of his foundations were upgraded into continents, joining the soul formation.
In addition, thepound feature was automatically activated.
DING
<You havebined Fire, Water, Wind, Lightning, Wood, Metal, Light, and Dark Element Cores! The element core attributes will be merged as one.>
DING
<You have created a new star core – Chaos!>
<Your dantian has expanded.>
The pocket dantian world gotrger once again. A new Dao Avatar of a male Oni Angel with ck wings was born. It carried a ck katana like Wei Huang, but it wore ck robes. However, the old Dao Avatars, such as Chad, the Eyeball Seraphim, or the Vampire remained in the pocket dantian even though the basic element cores no longer existed.
The coreless avatars weren''t idle. As they had lost their homes, aka their elemental cores, they drew the energy of providence Qi to themselves and recreated a new home.
DING
<Your Fire Element Foundation is being recreated.>
<Your Water Element Foundation is being recreated.>
<Your Wind…>
They recreated everything from scratch, and Xiaomao also coordinated with his Dao Avatars.
Two hourster, Xiaomao reconstructed eight basic nascent soul cores andpleted their new homes. When he was done, the providence Qi strand waspletely digested.
He checked his stats for augh as he believed that he might have advanced to the Mahayana Stage. He was in for a surprise.
Over his head, the name and level shocked Xiaomao.
Xiaomao, Chaos Seraphim, Level 999
"Eh?"
Although Xiaomao was not surprised that his level reached 999, the title baffled him.
His title changed to Chaos Seraphim!
