Tremendous energy surged into Jianchen's body and was refined into Chaotic Force. As the Chaotic Force rapidly increased, the chaotic neidan in Jianchen's dantian expanded at an extremely slow rate, going from the size of a soybean to the size of a fingernail.
With the formation of the chaotic neidan, Jianchen felt like his body was filled with endless energy. With a thought, he could easily control the Chaotic Force in the neidan to flow through his body. It was no longer like before, when he had no Saint Force to use any energy.
"Oh, big brother, you're so powerful. You actually absorb energy so quickly, much faster than Xiao Ling. And big brother doesn't feel any discomfort at all with so much energy entering your body. How impressive." Xiao Ling's illusionary voice slowly appeared beside Jianchen. She stared at Jianchen in surprise as she mumbled to herself.
Time passed bit by bit unknowingly. Jianchen's chaotic neidan slowly swelled as well, going from the size of a fingernail to the size of a thumb. The amount of Chaotic Force within it had reached a level that Jianchen had never dared to imagine in the past.
Jianchen had no idea how much energy he had absorbed by now. In short, the dense energy beneath Mercenary City had become much thinner.
"Oh, big brother, you've already absorbed all the energy Xiao Ling has gathered over the past fifty thousand years. When will you be done? All the energy that Xiao Ling has gathered over the past several tens of thousand years is gone." Xiao Ling finally could not help but mutter to herself as she sensed the energy around her rapidly diminishing. Her face was filled with pain.
However, Jianchen, who had completely submerged himself in cultivation, could not hear Xiao Ling's voice at all. He knew that with Xiao Ling's protection, there would definitely be no problems with his safety. As a result, he had completely submerged himself in cultivation long ago, lowering his vigilance towards the outside world to a minimum.
Jianchen continued to absorb the energy at an extremely terrifying rate under the assistance of the sword spirits. After who knew how long, the thumb-sized chaotic neidan in his dantian had grown even larger, becoming the size of a pigeon's egg. In order to form the chaotic neidan in his dantian, the energy beneath Mercenary City had become much thinner.
Just as Jianchen was still intoxicated by the wonderful feeling of his strength skyrocketing, the endless flow of energy into Jianchen's body was suddenly cut off. The sudden change roused Jianchen from his cultivation state.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Jianchen saw Xiao Ling hovering before him, glowing with a gentle white light. Xiao Ling was currently sobbing. Her face was filled with grief as she looked at Jianchen pitifully.
"Xiao Ling, what's wrong?" Jianchen asked in doubt.
"Big brother, you can't absorb anymore. You can't absorb anymore. You've already absorbed all the energy that Xiao Ling has gathered over the past hundred thousand years. If you consume too much energy, the seal won't be able to be maintained," Xiao Ling pleaded as she felt wronged.
"Seal? What seal? " Jianchen was stunned. At the same time, he was secretly surprised. He had never thought that he would absorb all the energy that Xiao Ling had gathered over the past hundred thousand years after reaching the minor achievement of the Chaotic Body. If it were not for Xiao Ling's assistance, who knew how long it would take for him to reach the minor achievement of the Chaotic Body.
This was because a sliver of Chaotic Force required vast amounts of energy of the world to be refined. It was equivalent to all the energy of a Saint Ruler.
"Ah!" Xiao Ling's face changed as she cried out. She quickly covered her mouth with her hands and shook her head, "There's no seal. Big brother, you must have misheard. You must have misheard."
"Xiao Ling, but I heard you very carefully. You clearly said that if you consume too much energy, the seal won't be able to be maintained. Xiao Ling, what is this seal?" Jianchen sniggered. However, he felt extremely doubtful inside. Just what kind of secret was Mercenary City hiding that they needed to maintain a seal? What was this thing that was sealed?
"No, no. Big brother, you must have misheard. Xiao Ling didn't say anything," Xiao Ling waved her hands in a fluster. She became anxious and nervous as if she had said something wrong.
Jianchen did not ask any more questions when he saw how Xiao Ling acted. Although he also wanted to know what was going on with the seal, he knew that he would not be able to get anything out of Xiao Ling's tight-lipped manner even if he continued asking. Instead, he would only make things difficult for the simple-minded Xiao Ling.
It was all thanks to Xiao Ling that he could reach the minor achievement of the Chaotic Body so quickly. As a result, Jianchen did not want to do anything that would make things difficult for Xiao Ling because Xiao Ling had already helped him far, far too much.
"Alright, Xiao Ling. Big Brother must have misheard. There's no such thing as a seal." Jianchen gently smiled. However, he looked around curiously, hoping to see something. However, the surroundings were pitch-black. Even with his eyesight, he could only see a very short distance with the tiny amounts of light from Xiao Ling and the sword spirits. However, all he could see was chaos. There was nothing at all.
Xiao Ling only smiled when she heard that. She said, "Big brother, Xiao Ling can feel that you've become a lot stronger. You should be able to deal with that bad guy. Xiao Ling, please send big brother out."
As soon as Xiao Ling finished speaking, Jianchen was enveloped by a barrier. He was then taken out of the ground, returning to his room in the inn.
As soon as Jianchen returned to the room, the White Tiger immediately jumped onto his shoulder. It used its short paws to hug Jianchen's neck tightly as it constantly whimpered. It was extremely sad.
Jianchen gently stroked the White Tiger. After comforting it a little, he said to the empty room, "Xiao Ling, how long have I been underground?"
"Big brother, it's been exactly fifteen days." Xiao Ling's illusionary figure slowly appeared before Jianchen.
"I never thought that half a month would pass so quickly. It feels like it's only been two hours," Jian Chen murmured in surprise. However, as soon as he said that, he suddenly became stunned. He subconsciously looked at his body and saw that he was completely naked. His clothes had already been destroyed by the powerful energy. Not a single piece of cloth remained.
Jianchen hurriedly took out a new set of clothes and put them on before carefully studying his body. He wanted to see just what was different about the Chaotic Body.
After reaching the minor achievement of the Chaotic Body, Jianchen's body did not change at all. He was still as slender as before. The only major change was that his body was now filled with power. The power was extremely great and extremely destructive. It was as if a casual punch from him could destroy the world.
Jianchen clenched his fist tightly before casually punching the space in front of him. As his fist passed by, the surrounding space violently distorted. The power of the punch had almost surpassed the limits of what space could endure. This was a phenomenon that could only be caused by Heaven Saint Masters using Heaven Tier Battle Skills, yet Jian Chen had easily achieved this with just his physical strength.
"Wow, big brother has become a lot more powerful. If we meet that bastard again, big brother won't need to fear him anymore," Xiao Ling excitedly called out. She was extremely happy.
"Master, the strength of the Chaotic Body is beyond your imagination. Now that your Chaotic Body has reached the minor achievement of the Chaotic Body, you'll be able to endure the attacks of Saint Rulers with just your physical strength as long as Chaotic Force covers your entire body. At the very least, it'll be very difficult for the Saint Ruler you encountered last time to deal too much damage to you, "Ziying's voice rang out in Jianchen's head.
What Zi Ying said made Jian Chen so excited that he could not control himself anymore. He was at his limit.
"Saint Ruler of the Jiede clan, I, Jianchen, will come find you very soon. Saint Ruler of the Sect of Dragon and Tiger, just you wait!" Jianchen sneered as he muttered to himself. Now that he had reached the minor achievement of the Chaotic Body, he finally had the strength to contend with Saint Rulers. He no longer needed to fear Saint Rulers as much as he did before.
After that, Jianchen bid farewell to Xiao Ling and carried the White Tiger, who was still sulking over Jianchen's absence for so many days, out of the room.
"Sir Jianchen …"
"Young friend Jianchen …"
As soon as Jianchen came down the stairs, many representatives of various organizations came up to greet him warmly. They all wanted to rope in Jianchen. Even if they couldn't rope him in, they still wanted to establish a good relationship with him.
Because of Jianchen's actions in Mercenary City, many large clans had already guessed that Jianchen had someone powerful backing him. Adding on Jianchen's innate talent, many organizations spared no effort in trying to rope him in. After all, forming a good relationship with such a person would only benefit them.
Jianchen didn't waste any time with these people. He smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries with them before bidding farewell to Hu Xiaotian and leaving the inn.
Very soon, Jianchen left Mercenary City and stepped out of the huge barrier that enveloped the city.
"Big brother, you can't lie to Xiao Ling. You have to visit Xiao Ling within three years, or Xiao Ling will be very angry." Xiao Ling's illusionary body hovered a meter above the ground as she stared at Jianchen longingly. Her eyes were filled with unconcealable sadness. She was extremely unwilling to part with Jianchen.
"Xiao Ling, don't worry. As long as nothing major happens, big brother will definitely visit you within three years." Jianchen promised again and again before stomping off the ground. He turned into a blur as he hurried toward the Cross Mountains with unbelievable speed.
The Illusory Flash was a high level Heaven Tier Battle Skill that Jianchen had grasped. Although it did not possess any offensive abilities, its speed was unrivaled. In the past, Jianchen had used the Illusory Flash to escape the pursuit of Heaven Saint Masters as an Earth Saint Master. However, he had lost his Saint Force, so he was unable to use the Illusory Flash. Now that the Saint Force in his body had been completely replaced by Chaotic Force, he could finally use the Illusory Flash that he had forgotten for a long time.
