Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough
chapter-592

Boom!

I finally managed to break through that damnable barrier and reach the Fourth Stage of the Core Formation Realm!

After close to half a day of attacking the barrier to the Fourth Stage of the Core Formation Realm, Chu Yang finally managed to break through the barrier and officially step into the Fourth Stage of the Core Formation Realm.

Whoosh~

At this moment, the qi from the world around him gathered towards him in response to his breakthrough, causing Chu Yang to stop himself from getting up as he quickly used the opportunity to absorb the qi from the world to stabilize his cultivation base.

Not to mention, he had pretty much used all the pure qi refined from the exotic energy to break through and had none left to stabilize his cultivation base, it was a rather lucky thing that his breakthrough allowed him to draw on the surrounding qi from the world and use it to stabilize his cultivation realm…

However, he understood that drawing in so much qi from the world around him would not come without risks!

At this point, all the demon beast in the core of the ancient city ruins should have sensed me… Hah… I really need to finish quickly so I can get out of here before I get overwhelmed by the demon beasts in here!

No longer wanting to try and gather the transparent stones with exotic energy inside them after understanding just how dangerous they were, Chu Yang was only concerned with getting out of the ancient city ruins alive at this point in time.

ROOOAR-!

ROOOOOOOOAR!

ROAR~

The only problem was that getting out alive had become a rather difficult task now that all the Core Formation Realm demon beasts inside the core of the ancient city ruins were aware of his location…

How troublesome… It looks like I won't only have to deal with the demon beasts in the Core Formation Realm…

Hearing the countless roars outside the pagoda from all directions around him, Chu Yang could not help lamenting at how difficult it would be for him to escape the ancient city ruins, while at the same time doing his best to stabilize his cultivation realm as quickly as possible.

…

At the same time Chu Yang was trying his best to quickly stabilize his cultivation base at the Fourth Stage of the Core Formation Realm, a large number of demon beasts had gathered together at the edge of the massive crater at the centre of the ancient city ruins.

Roar!

Rooooar!

Roar…

However, even after standing around for a few minutes, none of them dared entering the crater.

Looking at the group of demon beasts, it was obvious to anyone watching that the demon beasts were afraid of entering the crater. No, it would be more accurate to say they were afraid of the pagoda standing at the centre of the massive crater.

Squeak!

Even the rabbit demon beast above the Sixth Stage of the Core Formation Realm did not dare enter the crater as it stared towards the pagoda located at the centre of the massive crater with a fearful expression plastered all over its small face.

Whoosh~!

As time passed, more and more qi got drawn towards the centre of the massive crater before gathering at the badly damaged pagoda where it was then absorbed.

Attracting the qi from the world around him after his breakthrough, Chu Yang had not been the only one to benefit by using the qi to stabilize his cultivation, but the badly damaged pagoda had also managed to make use of the qi gathering towards it, as it had noticeably begun to recover some of its former prestige after absorbing most of the qi gathering towards Chu Yang.

ROOOAR!

The demon beasts saw this happening but were far too afraid to enter the crater and do something about it.

Even if they understood that the pagoda recovering would be a bad thing for them, their fear of the crater was enough to keep them at bay for now, as the pagoda had only recovered a tiny amount of its strength so far. Not yet enough to move away from the crater.

As long as the pagoda was far too weak to move on its own and was stuck in the massive crater, the demon beasts would not care if it managed to recover part of its strength…

However, things suddenly changed as a small vortex formed above the badly damaged pagoda-

WHOOSH~!

Before the demon beasts standing around outside the crater had any time to react, the badly damaged pagoda burrowed Chu Yang's momentary attraction of the qi between heaven and earth to form a small vortex to suck in all the qi and rapidly increase the amount of qi flowing towards it.

SQUEAK!

Understanding that things were taking a turn for the worse, the rabbit demon beasts acting as a leader of the demon beasts let out a loud squeaking noise before rushing into the massive crater towards the badly damaged pagoda.

ROAR!

ROOOOAR!

ROAR-!

The Core Formation Realm demon beasts that had gathered together with the rabbit demon beast seemed to have gotten some sort of command from the rabbit demon beast, as they similarly rushed towards the badly damaged pagoda.

Swish-!

BOOM!

Reaching the badly damaged pagoda, the rabbit demon beast and the rest of the Core Formation Realm demon beasts all launched attacks towards the pagoda. Instantly causing the small vortex above it to collapse and the absorption of qi to stop.

Rumble~

Following the absorption of qi by the pagoda being stopped, a large number of dim ancient symbols suddenly manifested out of thin air around the pagoda-

Boom-boom-boom!

Forming all kinds of different mystical attacks that launched towards the group of Core Formation Realm beasts that had attacked the pagoda.

Not a single one of the Core Formation Realm demon beasts that attacked the pagoda were able to escape unharmed, as all of them were injured to some degree by the pagoda.

SQUEAK!

However, the goal of stopping the pagoda from absorbing any more qi had already been complete, so the rabbit demon beasts ordered for every to retreat as the group of Core Formation Realm demon beasts quickly escaped from the crater with the badly damaged pagoda before the pagoda launched another wave of attacks.

.

The fact that most of them had managed to survive the attack of the pagoda was a miracle, as most of the pagoda's power had been split into dozens of weaker attacks that they could just barely endue with their strength. Only a few of the weaker ones at the First Stage of the Core Formation Realm had died during the pagoda's attack!

All in all, the rabbit demon beast considered this a success, as it returned to observing the pagoda where the human was hiding together with the rest of the demon beasts. Not forgetting to recover from the few injuries that it had just received from the pagoda.

After escaping the massive crater, the Core Formation Realm demon beasts ended up being split up. Most of them being gathered in two groups, one at either side of the massive crater

…

Looks like the qi stopped gathering towards me the moment I stabilized my cultivation base… Not to mention, it seems like the demon beasts already started attacking the pagoda!

Standing up after having fully stabilized his cultivation base at the Fourth Stage of the Core Formation Realm, Chu Yang thought this to himself as he felt the entire pagoda still shaking violently from what he expected to be the demon beasts outside attacking it.

At least the pagoda seems to be strong enough to hold the demon beasts back for some time, but I don't expect it to last forever. Leaving now when those demon beasts outside just finished attacking the pagoda and are still exhausted should be my best chance to escape!

Narrowing his eyes as he realized this, Chu Yang did not bother staying any longer inside the badly damaged pagoda.

Swoosh~

Directly rushing down the spiral staircase to the first floor before leaving the pagoda the same way he entered. Not encountering any formation that prevented him from escaping along the way.

"This is…"

Just as he took his first step outside the pagoda, Chu Yang could not help muttering this to himself as he was faced with the dead bodies of three massive demon beasts just a short distance away from the pagoda.

From the remnant auras swirling around the three dead bodies, Chu Yang did not take long to realize that the three dead demon beasts were in the Core Formation Realm. Not to mention, he could clearly tell a battle had just taken place outside the pagoda.

Did the demon beasts perhaps start fighting with each other around the pagoda? Maybe that's why the pagoda is still intact, it only received a few stray attacks from the fighting taking place nearby, it does not matter why they fought… I just need them to be too injured to fight me!

Thinking this, Chu Yang glanced towards the demon beasts surrounding the crater in the distance.

From a glance, it seemed like most of the Core Formation Realm demon beasts were gathered in two groups at either side of the crater, each being injured to various degrees.

Looks like they did indeed fight with each other! This should be a great opportunity for me to escape this place unscratched!

Swish-!

Having confirmed that the Core Formation Realm demon beasts surrounding the crater were indeed injured, Chu Yang didn't bother wasting any more time in front of the pagoda. Rushing directly towards the weakest part in the encirclement around the crater.

Fully intend on escaping the crater and leaving the ancient city ruins without fighting any of the demon beasts. Now that he was no longer interested in the transparent stone filled with exotic energy, he had no need to risk his life fighting the Core Formation Realm demon beasts of the ancient city ruins!
