Han Ye didn't plan to leave now, deciding instead to temporarily stay in the underground cave and elevate his cultivation once again. He figures it won't be late to venture out after laying the foundation for his Golden Core.
Previously, the Three-leaf Scorching Qi Grass and the Great Peiyuan Pill that Han Ye took still had some residue left over, about a fifth of the magic power and medicinal strength.
To attempt to reach a higher level of the Golden Core, the remaining medicinal power and spiritual energy need to be completely refined, integrated into the body, making the physical strength stronger, and leading to a bodily transformation.
Next, he will take the Gilded Emperor Mandala, a spiritual medicine with considerable benefits for the tempering of the physical body. It is often a valuable ingredient for the cultivation of Golden Core cultivators. With it, Han Ye feels he can condense an even higher level Golden Core.
