First step

Wei Yuan started absorbing the Origin Qi inside his body. This Qi was even more destructive than the pure evil Qi. Luckily he nourished his body with the pure evil Qi all the time. Thus, the Origin Qi can't do much damage. His core started to change after a few minutes. The origin Qi forcefully changed his core. No, it's not a change. It's more like a mutation. The first mutated core in the history.

This core was able to absorb Origin Qi and produce Origin Qi. This also meant that his core can absorb every element and Qi on the world. Normally, there are Qi's which can't be absorbed. Such as the nether Qi. Only demons can absorb that type of Qi, but now Wei Yuan can absorb it just like them.

The color of his core slowly changed to rainbow. It was a beautiful unprecedented core. This beautiful core will slowly nourish and change his body. He will be able to breathe Qi instead of air after that change. This means that he doesn't need to sit down and cultivate anymore because every breath will improve his cultivation base. He can cultivate even during sleeping after that.

Just as he expected, Wei Yuan got sleepy and eventually fell asleep. His body started to change. The origin Qi strengthened his muscles, tendons, veins and organs. His heart started beating faster. His blood absorbed the origin Qi and became richer. This blood needed for his new heart. His strong body can't function with normal blood anymore. The biggest change was the new nervous system. New nerves resulted in higher intelligence, higher reflexes, faster brain. He also got taller.

His new body was very sensitive to Qi. He also started inhale and exhale the Qi after the transformation. It was a natural reaction of his body. This change sounded very beneficial, but it was also very dangerous. There is no free meal in this world. His hair color changed to white due to the shock his body received during this change. He almost died when his heart tried to adapt to the origin Qi.

This change took around two months. Yes, this means that Wei Yuan was asleep for two months. Many things happened during this time. Yao Yunmeng broke through to the seventh stage of core formation. This shocked the whole Xun continent. Yao Yunmeng became the second strongest core disciple on the Xun continent with this breakthrough.

Anothers news was that the princess successfully defeated the second weakest core disciple inside the Tranquil Dragon sect. She improved very fast with her good talent and rich background. She reached the ninth stage of Foundation Establishment not too long ago.

Almost everyone forgot about Wei Yuan after Yao Yunmeng defeated him. The disciples thought that he is the weakest core disciple. They forgot that the rank of core disciple is something you earn with talent not with strength. This is how the princess and Wei Yuan became core disciples almost instantly after they earned the right to join the inner circle.

Of course, the elders, sect master and other core disciples knew the true power of Wei Yuan. He was someone who fought with Yao Yunmeng and successfully defended against her. That alone was not a big achievement, but Wei Yuan was only at Foundation Establishment third stage while Yao Yunmeng was on the sixth stage of core formation. The power difference was unimaginable, yet Wei Yuan still survived. They also knew that his real strength was still unknown because he only defended against Yao Yunmeng.

INSIDE THE PAGODA OF THE SECT MASTER

The sect master and the elders discussed the important matters inside the dark hexagonal room. The assistant stood beside the door. The sect master called him here to report the important news. The assistant was the eye of the sect, he knew almost everything. His cultivation was also on the peak of the Core formation stage. Only a step away from Nascent Soul stage.

The sect master looked at the assistant and asked him a question.

"Tell us everything you know about the core disciples."

"Yes, sect master. Yao Yunmeng reached the seventh stage of core formation. I'm sure the sect master already heard about this. The princess also improved and she is very talented..."

The assistant told everything he found out about the core disciples to the sect master. Except one thing, he didn't say anything about Wei Yuan. The sect master and the elders noticed this.

"What about Wei Yuan?"

"I don't know anything about him sect master. He told me to not disturb him for two months because he's going to do something important."

"Oh? Two months are already over. Go and check his progress. We definitely can't let Wei Yuan play around. That boy is unpredictable."

"Yes, sect master."

Wei Yuan sleeping in the center of the dark room. When suddenly something jumped inside his chest.

*Thump* *Thump* *Thump*

His heart started working again. Wei Yuan opened his eyes and slowly stood up. His mind was surprisingly very clear. He didn't feel dizzy. His body was very light.

Wei Yuan took a mirror out of his storage ring. He was very surprised. His hair color changed to white and he got taller. This combination gave him an otherworldly charm.

Now, he can inhale and exhale origin Qi. He can cultivate without stopping. It was the first big step towards creating his own unique technique. Sadly, this does not mean faster cultivation speed. It was the opposite. Now, he needed unimaginable amount of Qi to breakthrough to the next stage.

It was still worth it, he gained heaven defying benefits. Now he only needed to create a good attack technique. His defense was the natural Qi inside the air. Now, he can use this defense more skillfully with his new body. He can even create impenetrable defense with enough training.

Wei Yuan put back the mirror and someone knocked on the door in the next moment. Wei Yuan already knew that it was the assistant. The sect wanted to know about his every movement. He knew this from the beginning.
