"Then you have to be careful. If your body really can't endure the violent energy, don't force yourself. Although we still can't defeat the Spiritking with our current strength, we can still keep him busy if we work together," Shangguan Mu 'er said gently. Shangguan Mu 'er said gently. She was concerned and slightly worried. She knew that Jian Chen would be walking a dangerous path in the future. If he made a single mistake, he would end up heavily injured.
In the worst-case scenario, he might even explode and die.
After all, the energy within the heavenly resources was no longer gentle. Instead, it was extremely violent. It was completely different from the energy within the Violet Cloud Peaches.
Jianchen left the Yinyang Saint Rock and arrived in the desolate land several hundred kilometers away. He then took out the Anatta Tower and began to cultivate. Although he was very confident in himself, he still needed to be on guard against the possibility of his body exploding from the energy within the heavenly resources. If he were outside, it would definitely affect the Yinyang Saint Rock. However, he believed that even if he was ten times or a hundred times more powerful, he would not be able to cause any damage to the Anatta Tower even if the Anatta Tower was damaged right now.
Shangguan Mu 'er followed Jianchen into the Anatta Tower. She remained by Jianchen's side silently while feeling rather uneasy and worried. She focused on watching over Jianchen.
Jianchen picked up a king of ginseng that had been growing for who knows how many years and began to wolf it down. The king of ginseng was extremely bitter. In a single instance, Jianchen's tongue became numb as if he had lost his sense of taste. However, as the king of ginseng reached his stomach, an extremely violent energy immediately exploded in Jianchen's body like a barrel of gunpowder. It wreaked havoc wildly. Under the impact of the violent energy, Jianchen's organs shook violently and all of them ruptured.
The king of ginseng was extremely old. Coupled with the fact that it had reached the Immortal Tier, the energy within it was so tremendous that it was comparable to a third or even fourth grade Violet Cloud Peach. However, even in the Immortals' World, there were very few people who were bold enough to directly ingest the king of ginseng like Jianchen.
A trickle of blood flowed from the corner of Jianchen's mouth. Although he did not explode, he was clearly injured.
Jianchen did not care about his injuries at all. They were insignificant to him. As he circulated his Chaotic Force, his injuries immediately healed rapidly. At the same time, the violent energy from the king of ginseng was slowly assimilated by the circulation of Chaotic Force. In the end, it became nutrients for Jianchen's chaotic neidan.
Jianchen used several days to refine the king of ginseng. A few days later, Jianchen silently sensed that his chaotic neidan had become slightly stronger. He immediately rejoiced inside. Without any hesitation, he picked up a second heavenly resource and ate it, continuing to increase his strength.
"My Chaotic Body has almost reached the major achievement of the seventh layer. If this continues, I'll be able to reach the eighth layer successfully before long. At that time, the gap between me and the Spiritking will shrink infinitely, or we might even reach a stalemate," thought Jian Chen. He began to work even harder to refine the energy in the heavenly resources.
As Jianchen consumed the heavenly resources one by one, Jianchen's chaotic neidan rapidly strengthened as well. A year later, his chaotic neidan finally reached the Major Achievement of the seventh layer. It was also at this moment that Jianchen felt that the increase in strength from the heavenly resources was rapidly decreasing.
"I've consumed too many heavenly resources. My body has developed a resistance to them, so their effects on me are rapidly decreasing." Jianchen understood the drawbacks of consuming a large number of heavenly resources in a short amount of time. At this moment, he actually began to envy the White Tiger. Due to the White Tiger's special bloodline, it possessed an innate advantage, so it would almost never develop a resistance to the heavenly resources. It could consume heavenly resources endlessly to increase its strength.
"However, if regular people consume heavenly resources as fiercely as I do, they'll suffer even greater repercussions even if they can endure the violent energy. It might even affect their foundation and limit their future accomplishments. However, due to my Chaotic Body, the destruction of my foundation obviously won't happen to me," Jian Chen thought. Although Jianchen had developed a resistance to the heavenly resources, he had no intentions of stopping. Instead, he consumed heavenly resources at an even greater rate.
This time, he wanted to break through to the eighth layer of the Chaotic Body in a single stroke. Even if doing so would result in extremely bad consequences for his future cultivation, he would still do it because he was in desperate need of great strength right now.
Another year later, Jianchen finally broke through to the eighth layer after consuming who knows how many heavenly resources.
After reaching partial achievement of the Chaotic Body, each layer required a corresponding comprehension of the ways. If his comprehension was insufficient, he would not be able to break through at all. There would be an extremely great obstruction. However, Jianchen's comprehension of the Way of the Sword had already reached the major achievement of Sword Origin, so reaching the eighth layer was naturally not difficult at all.
After breaking through, Jianchen could finally end the bitter days of consuming heavenly resources. This was because many of the heavenly resources tasted just too horrible, yet Jianchen had spent two whole years eating them. It was basically a form of torture. If it were not for Jianchen's thirst for strength and his strong will, he probably would have given up long ago.
Now, Jianchen could not help but feel like vomiting whenever he smelled the heavenly resources. He would not dare to eat them for a very long time in the future.
"I've finally broken through!" Jian Chen stood up from the ground. He glanced at his robes, which had been dyed red by blood due to his shattered core. He decisively took out a new set of robes from his Space Ring and changed into them. His entire bearing suddenly changed as well.
At that moment, Jianchen felt an extremely great power from his body. The power was so great that it was enough to make the world tremble and the stars dim. He felt like he could collapse space with just a casual clench of his hand. Space seemed to be extremely fragile before him.
"Jianchen, have you broken through to the eighth layer?" Shangguan Mu 'er's voice rang out from beside him. There was some joy in her voice. She knew that once Jianchen reached the eighth layer, he would truly possess the power to fend off the Spiritking.
Jianchen looked at Shangguan Mu 'er. During the past two years, his cultivation had not been boring at all because Shangguan Mu' er had always been by his side. She would play her zither from time to time and silently encourage him.
"I've reached the eighth layer as I wished. It's just that I've consumed far too many heavenly resources, so I've left behind some problems in my body. Fortunately, these problems don't pose much of a threat to my Chaotic Body. I'll be able to get rid of them after some time." Jian Chen smiled faintly. He did not care about the problems in his body at all. These problems were fatal to other people, but to him, all he needed to do was spend some time cultivating, and he could resolve them perfectly.
