Why are Core Formation cultivators so difficult to kill, unlike those in the Qi Condensation or Foundation Establishment realms?
The answer lies in the very essence of their being — their Core, or more precisely, the Life Core.
When a cultivator steps into the Core Formation Realm, they undergo a fundamental transformation.
Their Life Qi(Life force/ vital energy/ Yuan Qi) — the very energy that sustains their existence, is condensed, and refined with the natural Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth to form a radiant core within their body.
This core becomes the anchor of their vitality and the fountain of their power.
As long as the core remains intact, the cultivator's life force continues to flow, even if their body suffers grievous wounds.
Destroying their body may not be enough, for the core still pulses with energy, nurturing regeneration and defiance against death.
