Chapter 3406: Infinite Cataclysm
Chapter 3406: Infinite Cataclysm
“You’ve finally broken through. Jian Chen, your Chaotic Body’s demand for resources is so great that it’s even broadened my horizons.” The Wind Venerable smiled gladly, but as soon as he thought of the resources depleted this time, he sighed inside.
The resources he used up to help Jian Chen break through to the seventeenth layer was more than enough to raise a couple of Grand Primes.
Of course, that was only taking the energy required into account.
In reality, the most important aspect to becoming a Grand Prime was still their comprehension of the ways of the world.
If their talent for comprehension was insufficient and they could not comprehend deeper ways, then resources would be useless to breakthroughs no matter how much they had.
The Wind Venerable saw through Jian Chen’s body with a single glance. After a pause, he continued, “However, the Chaotic Force in your chaotic neidan is almost non-existent after being compressed. As a result, you need to increase the Chaotic Force in your body. Otherwise, once an intense battle unfolds, you won’t last very long.”
“You basically won’t encounter a situation like that with me around, but we have to prepare for the worst.”
“As a result, you need to increase your Chaotic Force to a level where you can power a sovereign god artifact alone and cross through the chaotic sea at the very least. Once the experts of the Immortals’ World attack, there will be many things that are difficult to anticipate. I’m also worried about anything that might happen then, which will prevent me from escorting you.”
“As a result, you must make all your preparations during this time. You must prepare for the worst.”
As he said that, the Wind Venerable took out some more resources. These resources were left over from when Jian Chen broke through, as well as everything that the Wind Venerable had left on him.
“This is the last bit. Convert them into Chaotic Force for now. Let me deal with what comes afterwards.” As he said that, the force of the world surged through the surroundings. The Wind Venerable moved swiftly, directly converting the last bit of resources into pure energy before letting Jian Chen absorb it.
Very soon, Jian Chen drained all of the energy, but after reaching the seventeenth layer, his Chaotic Body’s demand for energy had multiplied yet again. As a result, the Wind Venerable’s remaining resources were not actually enough to increase Jian Chen’s Chaotic Force by much.
“Senior Feng, my Chaotic Force gets used up extremely slowly. The chaotic neidan might not be particularly large, but it’s already equivalent to all the energy of several or even over a dozen experts at the same cultivation as me. As a result, you don’t have to worry about gathering resources for my Chaotic Force,” Jian Chen cupped his fist, wanting to dismiss the Wind Venerable’s idea. He really could not bring himself to accept any more help from the Wind Venerable.
“That’s different. In the future, if you really face a situation when you need to power the sovereign god artifact with your own strength, that bit of Chaotic Force in your body is not going to be enough. After all, sovereign god artifacts deplete energy at a terrifying rate. Let alone a Chaotic Prime like you, even Seventh or Eighth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes can’t last for long.” The Wind Venerable waved his hand. He lowered his head in thought before continuing, “Before you broke through, medium quality God Tier heavenly resources were still of some use to you. They resulted in a sizable amount of Chaotic Force too. However, after breaking through, the energy in mid grade God Tier heavenly resources and pills is truly insignificant.”
“As a result, you need even higher grade heavenly resources, but the Saints’ World doesn’t have many higher grade heavenly resources. They’re basically all treated as precious resources by the peak organisations.”
Jian Chen immediately became troubled by what the Wind Venerable had said. Higher grade heavenly resources? Wasn’t that high grade God Tier then?
Just increasing his amount of Chaotic Force was so troublesome, so wouldn’t his breakthrough to the eighteenth layer be almost impossible?
As if he could read Jian Chen’s thoughts, the Wind Venerable smiled gently and said, “A few cultivators of the Chaotic Body have appeared in the history of the Immortals’ and Saints’ World, but virtually all of these Chaotic Bodies were nurtured through a tremendous amount of resources from peak organisations. It truly is unprecedented for someone to reach such a level with the Chaotic Body in just a few millennia like you. No one has ever done it before.”
“As a result, you don’t have to be in too much of a hurry for the next breakthrough, as you can slowly accumulate the resources you require over a lengthy period of time.”
“Moreover, you have my full support, so what’re you worried about?”
“Senior Feng, in my knowledge, the Chaotic Body doesn’t seem to be capable of reaching Grand Prime?” Jian Chen smiled wryly.
In the past, he had been far too distant from the eighteenth layer of the Chaotic Body, so he had never considered the issue of Grand Prime, but now, he was only a step away from the eighteenth layer. As such, the obstacle right in front of him crossed his mind.
The Wind Venerable nodded and said sternly, “That is indeed the situation, but this case has only appeared a few times in total. The first reason is because there are far too few cultivators of the Chaotic Body. The resources required are just too great, so they’ve been unable to produce any Chaotic Bodies on par with Grand Primes.”
“Secondly, it’s caused by the cultivation method. Because the cultivation method was created by various experts, extending the cultivation method requires a lot of knowledge and referencing. Without that, the creation of the cultivation method will obviously halt.”
“Last of all!” The Wind Venerable paused for a moment. He frowned heavily and said sternly, “Perhaps breaking through to Grand Prime requires crossing an invisible chasm and breaking through some kind of restraint.”
Jian Chen’s eyes shone when he heard that. He thought of the Martial Soul lineage, as well as the giant hand that slew the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineage in the past.
That left him in astoundment and fear.
“Fellow Jian Chen, you don’t actually have to chase after the highest realm of the Chaotic Body blindly, as the greatest advantage of the Chaotic Body is not its battle prowess beyond others of the same level, but its ability to fend off the Infinite Cataclysm.” The Wind Venerable immediately became extremely mixed in expression.
“The Infinite Cataclysm? Senior Feng, what’s the Infinite Cataclysm?” Jian Chen’s eyes narrowed as he asked in doubt.
“The Infinite Cataclysm… hmm… actually, with your current strength, it’s inconvenient for you to learn about this too early. Once your Chaotic Body breaks through again, I’ll tell you about it.” The Wind Venerable sighed gently.
Jian Chen became stern before he asked, “Senior Feng, I once stumbled upon the ancient Skywolf’s dwelling by accident. The ancient Skywolf was also a Grand Exalt in the past, but he passed away in meditation in the end. All of his comprehensions turned into the Origin of Ways and dissipated into the surroundings. Don’t tell me the ancient Skywolf’s passing is related to the Infinite Cataclysm?”
“Sigh, don’t try to ask any further questions about this. Jian Chen, take out the Divine Armour of Heavenflight you obtained from the Wood Spirits,” said the Wind Venerable.
