I Can Upgrade My Talent Infinitely

Ever since the Celestial Demon Sect was eliminated, Fang Yun had been preparing for the future. These Spirit Medicines had been planted over a century ago.

By his calculations, nearly one hundred and ten years had passed since they destroyed the Celestial Demon Sect.

'Time to break through to the late-stage Core Formation.'

Having adjusted his condition to its peak, Fang Yun began circulating the mental method of his cultivation technique. He was now advancing toward the late-stage Core Formation.

With the potent medicinal effects of the Golden Core Supplement Pill, one Middle-grade pill would be enough for his breakthrough. He had prepared an extra Low-grade Golden Core Supplement Pill just to be safe.

One month later.

Fang Yun's attempt to break through to the late-stage Core Formation had reached its most critical juncture.

Without a moment's hesitation, he consumed the Middle-grade Golden Core Supplement Pill and began his assault on the late-stage Core Formation realm.

Once he ingested the Middle-grade Golden Core Supplement Pill, its powerful medicinal effects immediately dispersed, aiding Fang Yun in his breakthrough.

At such a critical juncture, time seemed to slow to a crawl for Fang Yun. Every inch of progress was fraught with difficulty.

As time went on, the deep furrow in Fang Yun's brow smoothed out, and his aura began to climb steadily.

His aura only stopped changing once it stabilized at the late-stage Core Formation.

"Late-stage Core Formation!"

The process of breaking through to the late-stage Core Formation had gone just as Fang Yun expected. One Middle-grade Golden Core Supplement Pill was all the aid he needed. He could put the Low-grade one away and place it in the sect's Treasure Pavilion later for any Supreme Elder who reached the peak of mid-stage Core Formation to exchange for.

Inside the Cultivation Room, Fang Yun quickly examined the changes brought about by his breakthrough.

The most obvious change was to the Golden Core in the center of his Qi Sea. It had become more solid and slightly larger, and its autonomous rotation had grown much faster.

After he broke through, he found that controlling his Lifebound Magical Treasure, the Profound Jade Sword—which had already undergone its second Sacrificial Refinement and upgrade—was now much more effortless, allowing him to unleash its full power.

With the enhancement of his eight-star Combat Talent, his attacking methods had become even more terrifying.

'I wonder if I have the power to kill an Early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator head-on now?'

Having never witnessed the true power of an Early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, Fang Yun could only estimate his own strength.

After breaking through, he felt even more confident about the sect's future development.

With him holding down the fort at the Celestial Cloud Sect, along with the Array Master and Supreme Elder, Zheng Chunyu, they would have the power to resist even if a Mid-stage Nascent Soul expert from the Evil Demons and Crooked Paths were to attack.

Great strength was the source of his confidence.

The stone door of the Cultivation Room opened, and the first person Fang Yun saw was Song Qiaoqiao, who had been waiting outside.

The commotion from his breakthrough from the peak of mid-stage Core Formation to the late stage must have been perceived clearly by Song Qiaoqiao, who lived with him.

"Congratulations on breaking through to the late-stage Core Formation, Husband. The Nascent Soul Stage is just around the corner."

"The Nascent Soul Stage is still a long way off," Fang Yun replied with a smile. "Let's talk about it after I reach the Peak of Core Formation."

Among the high-ranking Core Formation cultivators of the Celestial Cloud Sect, the topic of the sect becoming a Nascent Soul Influence like the Purple Mist Sect had become commonplace.

They were already a top-tier Core Formation Sect, possessing an even larger territory than other top-tier Core Formation Sects. The sect was constantly developing, and the next step would be to become a Nascent Soul Sect.

And to become a Nascent Soul Sect, there must be a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator within its ranks.

"Did anything happen in the sect during the month I was in seclusion?" Fang Yun asked.

"Nothing," Song Qiaoqiao said, shaking her head. She knew he was referring to major sect matters.

The things that had occurred were minor, not even warranting the attention of the Sect Leader. The Supreme Elders and Elders below him would have handled them.

Speaking of sect matters, Song Qiaoqiao briefly mentioned a few things from the past month that required the Sect Leader's approval, then turned the conversation to the affairs of Dan Cloud Peak.

As the Supreme Elder managing Dan Cloud Peak, she was very familiar with the situation of every Elder of Alchemy on the peak.

She left the disciples' Alchemy assignments to the Elders, while she personally managed the Alchemy assignments related to the Elders of Alchemy.

"Elder Han has perfectly refined a Primordial Spirit Pill."

The Primordial Spirit Pill was still the main pill the sect used to assist Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation. The pill for assisting cultivation at the Peak of Foundation Establishment had now become the Three Springs Pill.

The Three Springs Pill was refined using mutated Spirit Medicine planted by Fang Yun as its main ingredient. It had already replaced the Primordial Spirit Pill in assisting the cultivation of Peak of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"Very good. Elder Han can start refining the Three Springs Pill next," Fang Yun replied.

The alchemy system on Dan Cloud Peak was already well-established. To be eligible to refine the Three Springs Pill, one had to be able to refine an Upper-grade Primordial Spirit Pill.

Elder Han Yichen's situation was a bit different.

He held himself to a very high standard. The rules of Dan Cloud Peak weren't enough for him, so he created additional challenges for himself.

Dan Cloud Peak allowed Elders to have high standards for themselves; conversely, having low standards was not acceptable.

Of course, each case needed to be analyzed individually. If an Elder's talent was lacking but their personal standards were too high, Song Qiaoqiao would have a serious talk with them.

With insufficient talent and excessively high standards, it would be difficult to make progress in the future.

Han Yichen's self-imposed requirement to achieve perfect refinement of the Primordial Spirit Pill before attempting the Three Springs Pill had earned the approval of both Song Qiaoqiao and Fang Yun.

"Once Elder Han starts refining the Three Springs Pill, things will be easier for me." Song Qiaoqiao had already figured out how to schedule Han Yichen for refining them.

Among the Second Tier pills, those used to assist cultivation were only refined by Fang Yun's carrier bodies when they had free time.

The highest-priority Second Tier pill was undoubtedly the Foundation Establishment Pill, followed by pills that aided breakthroughs within the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Even with four carrier bodies, Fang Yun found they weren't enough. The sect was continuously opening up new Spirit Fields, increasing the output of Spirit Medicine. In addition to Alchemy, his carrier bodies also had to handle Artifact Refining and planting.

Right now, all four carrier bodies were stopped in the main hall of his cave-dwelling.

In Fang Yun's settings, a carrier body would stop here when it had insufficient energy to perform its next task.

While he was in seclusion breaking through to the late-stage Core Formation, Fang Yun was naturally unable to replenish the carrier bodies' energy.

The carrier body assisting with planting consumed energy the slowest, followed by the one refining pills, and finally the one refining Spiritual Artifacts.

While chatting with Song Qiaoqiao, Fang Yun took the opportunity to replenish the carrier bodies' Spiritual Power. Once their Spiritual Power was full, they would resume the tasks Fang Yun had previously assigned.

After discussing internal sect matters, their conversation turned to the world outside.

Through Song Qiaoqiao, Fang Yun learned that the Evil Dao Core Formation Influences around the sect were quiet, which was no different from before his seclusion.

"The situation with Star Moon Valley and the Vast Sea Sect has changed again."

"What kind of change?" Fang Yun asked immediately.

He was paying close attention to the conflict between Blood Dew Palace, Star Moon Valley, and the Vast Sea Sect.

If Star Moon Valley and the Vast Sea Sect couldn't withstand Blood Dew Palace and requested aid, he would go over and harvest a wave of Combat Talent Points.

"Blood Dew Palace, which had slowed its offensive, has suddenly intensified its attacks on Star Moon Valley and the Vast Sea Sect."

"Blood Dew Palace has been erratic like this for the past few years," Fang Yun couldn't help but say. "Star Moon Valley and the Vast Sea Sect have been on the defensive the whole time, able only to defend."

For over a thousand years, in the battles between Blood Dew Palace, Star Moon Valley, and the Vast Sea Sect, Blood Dew Palace had always held the initiative.

This was mainly due to its overall strength.

"Husband, what do you think Blood Dew Palace is trying to do?"

"Their erratic attacks are likely a feint to make Star Moon Valley and the Vast Sea Sect lower their guard, then deal them a devastating blow," Fang Yun said, sharing his current thoughts.

"That's very likely." Song Qiaoqiao strongly agreed with his idea.

"We just need to be ready to provide support at a moment's notice."

"Mm."

Once Star Moon Valley and the Vast Sea Sect could no longer withstand Blood Dew Palace's assault, they would surely ask the Celestial Cloud Sect for support immediately.

This was because the Celestial Cloud Sect was now so powerful that even if Star Moon Valley and the Vast Sea Sect were not in a dire crisis of their own, they would still seek support, and the Celestial Cloud Sect would provide it.

Fang Yun had now caught up on all the changes from the past month.

"Husband, next..."

"I understand."
