Chapter 19: Failed Core Formation Breakthrough
Failed Core Formation Breakthrough...
It’s referred to when something went wrong during the most critical moment of the Core Formation process, preventing the spiritual core from fully forming or stabilizing.
There could be several reasons: impurities in the spiritual energy disrupting the condensation process, a flawed cultivation technique or unstable foundation, mental disturbance or emotional imbalance during the breakthrough... but most commonly, it was external interference, such as being attacked or disturbed during the crucial moment.
Any of these could result in failure. And when that happened, the consequences were often devastating.
In Yue Ling’s case, the fact that she was able to form even a false core was already the best possible outcome.
"But how? What happened?" Langtian’s brows furrowed.
He knew his senior sister. She wasn’t the type to rush things, nor would she attempt a breakthrough without adequate preparation. More importantly, she had already gone through this process once before, forming her own golden core.
But then he remembered...
Here, in this cursed valley, Yue Ling had been all alone.
Once she entered the meditative trance for her Core Formation breakthrough, there would’ve been no one to protect her.
"Could it be... that some demonic beasts attacked you mid-breakthrough?" he asked.
"Well, that," Yue Ling sighed, "and the Heavenly Tribulation."
