Chapter 3405: Reaching the Seventeenth Layer (3)
A mighty sovereign of the world resorting to borrowing items from a lower organisation was extremely rare in the Saints’ World.
At the very least, over all these years, a similar case had only happened once before, which was when the newly-broken-through Overarching Heaven Grand Exalt visited the Spirit God clan to borrow the Divine Sword of Spirit Severance!
However, the Overarching Heaven Grand Exalt borrowed the Divine Sword of Spirit Severance to face the sovereigns of the Immortals’ World.
As a result, it was perfectly normal for him to borrow the sword in the eyes of the various peak organisations of the Saints’ World.
However, the Wind Venerable coming over to borrow resources like this was clearly something else.
As a result, everyone from the Ancient Burial clan was stunned when they heard that the Wind Venerable wanted to borrow resources.
“Wind Sovereign, w-what did you just say? I-I didn’t hear you clearly,” the Vengeful Heaven Saint Monarch said politely. His tone was rather uncertain and surprised.
Before a sovereign of a world, even the seven mighty Saint Monarchs seemed to grovel a little.
“I want to borrow some resources from you. With the extravagancy of your Ancient Burial clan, it shouldn’t be an issue, right?” The Wind Venerable smiled nonchalantly. He was composed. He did not feel awkward at all.
After receiving confirmation, the Vengeful Heaven Saint Monarch immediately suppressed his surprise and said in a hurry, “May I ask what kind of resource the Wind Sovereign needs? As long as our Ancient Burial clan has it, we’ll definitely offer it up to you for free.”
The Vengeful Heaven Saint Monarch said that with some joy. After all, once the Wind Sovereign took one of their possessions, it would be a connection and a favour.
Faced with a favour from a sovereign, even archaean clans like them valued it dearly.
“Who wants you to give them to me for free? I want to borrow them from you. Any resources I take away from your Ancient Burial clan today will be repaid with twice the value,” the Wind Sovereign glanced deeply at the Vengeful Heaven Saint Monarch and said indifferently.
Before long, the Wind Venerable left the Ancient Burial clan with a tremendous amount of resources that he had borrowed.
He did not directly return to the Spiritsages. Instead, he continued to two other archaean clans, the Bai clan and the Returnance clan, borrowing some resources from them as well.
In the end, he returned to the Spiritsages with a tremendous amount of resources from these three archaean clans.
“The Wind Venerable has actually gone to archaean clans to borrow resources. Hehe, interesting, interesting.” The Bloodtear Grand Exalt levitated in a glorious, blood-red divine hall and let out a strange laugh. His voice was filled with an undisguised sense of mockery.
The Nine Brilliance Star Lord sat in his star robes beneath the Bloodtear Grand Exalt. He seemed like he was practising some kind of secret technique.
When he heard what the Bloodtear Grand Exalt said, the Nine Brilliance Star Lord opened his eyes slowly in surprise. “Master, what did you just say? The Wind Sovereign is borrowing resources from archaean clans?”
“That’s right. The Wind Venerable went to the Ancient Burial clan first, and then he headed to the Bai clan and the Returnance clan. He obtained some resources from all three clans. With his current status, he’s actually going to these archaean clans to borrow resources. He sure doesn’t have much of a sense of pride.” The Bloodtear Grand Exalt openly sneered. He did not have a very good impression of the Wind Venerable.
Even now, he had not forgotten what had happened back then. He turned into a sea of blood in an attempt to trap the Wind Venerable, yet in the end, he had instead been trapped by the Wind Venerable’s fetal membrane of the world, unable to break through no matter what. To make matters worse, the Bloodtear Grand Exalt was an established sovereign, whereas the Wind Venerable had only just broken through. He had made a fool of himself before all those experts of the Saints’ World.
That had always lingered on the Bloodtear Grand Exalt’s mind.
“Master, the Wind Sovereign has already become an existence akin to an embodiment of the heavenly ways. With his cultivation, why would he still lack resources?” The Nine Brilliance Star Lord was very surprised.
The Bloodtear Grand Exalt sneered. “Who knows? Perhaps something has happened to his fetal membrane body which requires a tremendous number of resources to repair? Or perhaps he needs these resources to strengthen some function of the fetal membrane of the world. After all, the fetal membrane of the world he can transform into now is extremely powerful in terms of defence, but it is puny when it comes to offence.”
“All precious resources have been occupied in the current Saints’ World. Under these circumstances, the only way for the Wind Venerable to obtain a large number of resources in a short time frame is to rob other organisations.”
Elsewhere, near the Overarching Heaven Plane, the Overarching Heaven Grand Exalt who sat in outer space gazed off in a certain direction with a deep gaze. Only quite a while later did he sigh and say, “Fellow Feng has actually gone to find the archaean clans to borrow resources. Looks like he really is in desperate need of these resources, or why would he do something so humiliating given his status?”
……
…
Among the underground divine crystal veins in the Spiritsages, a force of the world enveloped the entire place, obscuring everything. Even if Overarching Heaven and Bloodtear tried to look into this place, they would not be able to see what unfolded here.
At this moment, Jian Chen sat within the force of the world. His mind was completely devoted to cultivation. As he absorbed the tremendous and pure energy, the chaotic neidan in his dantian grew with each passing day.
“With these resources, you’ll be able to break through successfully with your Chaotic Force.” The Wind Venerable who had just returned to the Spiritsages smiled gently near Jian Chen. Afterwards, with a wave of his hand, a mountainous pile of heavenly resources appeared in the air. There was a very great variety of them, all shining with dazzling light.
Afterwards, the Wind Venerable repeated the same trick, personally refining the energy with the force of the world for Jian Chen.
Under the Wind Venerable’s full support, the chaotic neidan in Jian Chen’s dantian finally grew to its limit after several years. Afterwards, everything unfolded smoothly. He went through the evolution and strengthening of the shattered neidan once again.
After enduring the pain of shattering the neidan, Jian Chen successfully reached the seventeenth layer of the Chaotic Body!
Immediately, a tremendous presence radiated from Jian Chen’s body naturally. His strength had undergone a qualitative leap once again.
The seventeenth layer of the Chaotic Body pushed his cultivation from early Chaotic Prime to mid Chaotic Prime.
This was not just reaching mid Chaotic Prime, but directly reaching the peak of mid Chaotic Prime.
In other words, the Sixth Heavenly Layer of Chaotic Prime!
Crack!
At this moment, Jian Chen’s skin began to fracture, rapidly covering his body. He seemed like a pot covered in cracks, like he would shatter from the slightest touch.
However, Jian Chen was unfazed. He glanced at his cracked skin. With a gentle quiver, all of it immediately turned to dust, slowly drifting away and exposing the pure-white, new skin below.
He had shed his old skin. He seemed like he had been reborn. The white, tender skin was as soft as a newborn infant’s.
Jian Chen stood up and bowed deeply towards the Wind Venerable. He was well aware that if it were not for the Wind Venerable’s full support this time, who knew how long it would take before he reached the seventeenth layer if tried to gather these resources on his own.
