Chapter 3150: The Sixteenth Layer of the Chaotic Body
Under the healing from the Twin-headed Lotus, Jian Chen’s wounds stabilised very quickly. They stopped worsening.
As soon as his wounds stabilised, Jian Chen stopped healing resolutely, dragging his heavily-injured body off to collect the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid.
He did not know when the Xuanhuang beasts nearby would arrive. He did not have enough time for his wounds to heal completely. Collecting enough Xuanhuang spiritual fluid was of utmost priority.
However, just a few seconds after Jian Chen began collecting the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid, deafening beast roars rang out from the distant mountains and forests. There was already a Xuanhuang beast approaching this place. The presence it gave off was extremely powerful, a Chaotic Prime at the very least.
At this moment, the heavenly resources on the small island rapidly vanished. Shangguan Mu’er collected all of the treasures there as quickly as she could before rushing over to Jian Chen’s side.
She had clearly sensed the Xuanhuang beast approaching as well. She said anxiously and sternly, “Jian Chen, we don’t have enough time. We need to leave here immediately.”
Gazing at the several hundred litres of Xuanhuang spiritual fluid he had just collected into his Space Ring, Jian Chen sighed inside, as that was still nowhere near enough.
On top of that, he had already deeply witnessed the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid’s profound wonders as he refined the Dragon Intoxication pills. The spiritual fluid could be described as an unmatched treasure to any alchemist.
Unfortunately, the Xuanhuang beast that rapidly pressed closer forced Jian Chen to give up on the thought of collecting more Xuanhuang spiritual fluid. If he still did not leave, Shangguan Mu’er would be in danger because of him.
“Let’s go, Mu’er!” Jian Chen gave up on the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid here resolutely before erasing their presences and leaving this place secretively under Shangguan Mu’er’s support.
Fortunately, these Xuanhuang beasts did not possess any intelligence, so Jian Chen and Shangguan Mu’er managed to escape without encountering any danger. Even when they had left behind a trail of tracks, these Xuanhuang beasts would not pay attention to these clues.
Otherwise, Jian Chen and Shangguan Mu’er never could have slipped away so easily if any of them had been intelligent ancient beasts instead.
Jian Chen and Shangguan Mu’er maintained their utmost alertness and vigilance during the next part of their journey, avoiding all of the Xuanhuang beasts. Even when they discovered some God Tier heavenly resources, they did not go to pick them, retreating all the way back to the outskirts without stopping.
Between them, Jian Chen had yet to recover from the backlash of the twin swords, while Shangguan Mu’er was only an early Infinite Prime. In the depths where Primordial realm Xuanhuang beasts were constantly on the prowl, they could not afford any setbacks.
Moving carefully, they left the depths very soon and returned to the territory where Godhood Xuanhuang beasts were active.
However, they still did not stop. Shangguan Mu’er supported Jian Chen and flew at a low altitude. Only when they reached the region where Deity Xuanhuang beasts were active did they stop.
“I’ll break through with the Chaotic Body immediately. Mu’er, watch over me.” Jian Chen sat down immediately. The small island had over a hundred heavenly resources growing on there in total. Even when a part of them were Violet Cloud Peach trees and Comprehension Tea trees, the remaining portion was enough for him to break through.
The entirety of the Xuanhuang Microcosm was basically a treasure trove. There were countless high level heavenly resources, but sufficiently great strength was required to obtain them.
Just like how ample preparation made everything else much easier, only when he became stronger could he collect even more precious heavenly resources.
Shangguan Mu’er immediately took out everything she had collected from the small island. Three Divine Fruits of Sky Purification, several hundred Violet Cloud Peaches and Comprehension Tea Leaves, as well as various other God Tier heavenly resources.
With the height that Jian Chen had reached so far with his Chaotic Body, the assistance that Violet Cloud Peaches brought him had already become negligible. Even if he ingested a ninth grade God Tier Violet Cloud Peach, it would not make much of a difference.
The energy that the Chaotic Body required when breaking through had far surpassed anything of the same level.
As for the Comprehension Tea, it was also useless to Jian Chen’s breakthrough, as he only required energy right now, not comprehension.
Afterwards, Jian Chen began to focus on healing like he was the only one in the world. Before he broke through, he needed to return to his peak condition, just to be safe.
Meanwhile, Shangguan Mu’er demonstrated her virtuous side for once, watching over Jian Chen silently as she tidied through the heavenly resources for him, sorting them into groups and stacking them neatly on one side.
After all, not all of these heavenly resources could increase his cultivation. Some of them were for recovery or even alchemy.
Several days later, Jian Chen recovered from his wounds. When he opened his eyes again, he discovered over a dozen corpses of Xuanhuang beasts in the distance.
“Just break through at peace. I’m more than enough to watch over you on the outskirts.” Shangguan Mu’er sat right in front of Jian Chen, showing some gentleness for once.
Gazing at Shangguan Mu’er’s beautiful, picturesque face, Jian Chen smiled understandingly. He glanced at the heavenly resources that had been neatly placed right before him and felt a sense of warmth rise up in his heart.
Shortly afterwards, he picked up a Divine Fruit of Sky Purification and ate it without any hesitation.
The effects of the Divine Fruit of Sky Purification were extremely violent. As soon as he ingested the fruit, Jian Chen felt surging energy erupt in his body. If he consumed the Divine Fruit of Sky Purification rashly without a certain level of cultivation, he would probably blow up on the spot.
Time trickled by silently. Not a single one of the three Divine Fruits of Sky Purification remained now, as Jian Chen had ingested them all. Even a good portion of the several dozen God Tier heavenly resources for strengthening cultivation had vanished.
Meanwhile, the corpses of Xuanhuang beasts nearby had reached over a hundred.
As Jian Chen focused on breaking through, Shangguan Mu’er remained right by his side, watching over him silently.
Suddenly, a surging presence erupted from Jian Chen. Shangguan Mu’er, who sat right in front of him, actually slid away uncontrollably under the pressure from this presence.
At that instant, the energy and aura that Jian Chen gave off climbed at an unbelievable rate as if they were changing qualitatively, striving towards a higher level.
He had already achieved his goal, breaking through from the fifteenth layer to the sixteenth layer with his Chaotic Body.
A day later, Jian Chen’s presence slowly settled down. He opened his eyes. Sensing the power that had changed in terms of quality surging through his body, he immediately smiled in satisfaction.
With the sixteenth layer of the Chaotic Body, he was a Chaotic Prime through and through from this day onwards.
Whether it was his cultivation, comprehension, or soul, they had all reached Chaotic Prime.
“The Chaotic Body has become even stronger. If I just stand there without budging and allow a First Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime Xuanhuang beast to attack me, it won’t even be able to harm a hair on me.” Jian Chen became even more confident with his strength increase once again.
