The breakthrough to the Core Genesis stage was not hard.
The requirements were mainly having reached peak lifeform stats at the Foundation stage and having a complete Arcane Path with all four rune slots filled.
Once these two requirements were fulfilled, one only needed to run their Mana throughout all of their energy nodes from their Life Nexus. Once all energy nodes were connected via mana links, it would trigger the process of creating a Core within their Life Nexus.
The time-consuming part was running their Mana through all energy nodes stably. Most importantly, there was one hidden energy node that had to be unlocked manually.
Elder Shaila easily unlocked that hidden energy node for everyone by guiding them.
During the process of Core formation, everyone also required energy from Tier-2 Mana Stones or an atmosphere with abundant Tier-2 Mana or above.
The garden here had abundant Tier-4+ Mana, so everyone smoothly finished the process.
