Chapter 36 The Black Hand
On a desolate asteroid tens of millions of feet away from the outpost, Zhao Chen sat cross-legged.
All around was deathly silent, the starry river was cold and desolate, and he was all alone, like a peerless hunter lurking in the depths of darkness.
Inside the storage ring and the dantian stomach pouch, over forty thousand pieces of ore were quietly stacked—
More than 30,000 pieces of dark red fire ore and more than 10,000 pieces of silver-white empty ore.
This is the confidence and foundation he gained by storming the Heavenly Palace, looting the treasure vault, and risking his life.
Looking inward at his dantian, he realized that he had already reached a bottleneck in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
Today is the day of breaking through to the next level.
"First offer sacrifices to the magical artifacts, then cultivate yourself."
With a slight thought, the three natal magic treasures floated in the air, shining brightly.
Pure Yang fire erupted from within his body, scorching the heavens and boiling the seas with overwhelming power.
Dark red fire ore poured out like a torrent, being refined into pure fire element, which was then poured into the Chaos Bell and the God-Slaying Spear;
The silvery-white void ore transformed into wisps of spatial Daoist energy, which gradually merged into the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife.
This training lasted for seven days.
As the last wisp of mineral smoke dissipated, the three magical artifacts broke through simultaneously, stepping into the realm of spiritual artifacts.
The Chaos Bell condenses 150 array patterns; when the bell tolls, it can shatter an entire asteroid.
The God-Slaying Spear contains 160 array patterns; when unsheathed, its spear light can cleave through the void.
The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife contains 140 array patterns; with a mere thought, it can take a life from ten thousand feet away.
This refining process consumed 20,000 units of dark red fire ore and 6,000 units of silver-white void ore.
The mine still contains over 10,000 ore pellets and 4,000 empty ore pellets, indicating a sufficient foundation and undiminished potential.
After putting away his magical artifact, Zhao Chen closed his eyes and entered a meditative state, no longer concerning himself with worldly affairs.
The starry sky has neither day nor night, only eternal darkness and cold starlight.
From this moment on, Zhao Chen embarked on an endless path of wandering and hunting.
Hunt, devour, escape, hide—a cycle that repeats endlessly, leaving no trace.
the first year.
He sat quietly on the cold meteorite, opening his entire body to absorb the essence of the sun, moon, and stars.
The intense heat of the sun forges a powerful masculine essence;
The cool, clear moonlight nourishes the spirit and the foundation of the soul.
The power of stars is the most wondrous, with each strand containing the imprint of stars, making the true essence increasingly solid and profound.
Zhao Chen's mind was clear as a mirror—the opportunity to break through his current level was just around the corner.
Day 367.
When the last wisp of starlight flowed into the dantian.
The nascent soul suddenly trembled violently, and the purple patterns burst forth with divine light, illuminating the entire desolate starry sky.
It then began to spin wildly, solidify, and solidify again...
Three hours later, the roar gradually subsided.
The nascent soul's color changed from light purple to dark purple, and its patterns were mysterious, subtly containing the rhythm of the heavens.
An aura several times stronger than before swept across all directions.
Late stage of Nascent Soul, completed.
The third year.
He ventured deep into the northern battlefield and encountered the first batch of second-generation late-stage divine angels.
Act cautiously, and you'll win every single battle.
With each angelic body he devoured, his cultivation level increased, and his bones and muscles steadily improved as his cultivation level grew.
The fifth year.
Once the Nascent Soul stage is fully stabilized, one begins the path towards perfection.
The tenth year.
Zhao Chen killed three mid-stage second-generation divine body commanders in succession, growing stronger with each battle and gradually gaining a fearsome reputation.
The fifteenth year.
Zhao Chen encountered the middle stage of the third generation divine body.
After a day of bloody battle, he finally managed to wear down his formidable enemy by relying on three spiritual artifacts and his late-stage Nascent Soul cultivation.
The moment it devoured that third-generation divine body, a vast amount of energy began to wash over its limbs and bones. At this moment, its fifteen years of accumulated Qi cultivation also touched the threshold of the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Three months later, they emerged from the pass.
The nascent soul has solidified to its ultimate state, leaving no trace of illusion.
The Nascent Soul stage has reached its peak.
At the same instant, the body, which had undergone fifteen years of devouring and tempering, slammed across the insurmountable chasm.
Flesh, bones, and fascia trembled simultaneously, and a power belonging to a higher realm awakened from the depths of its origin.
The physical body is equivalent to the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage.
Zhao Chen lay on his back on the cold meteorite, gazing at the endless sea of stars, his eyes burning with fierce fighting spirit.
After fifteen years of dormancy, it has finally come to fruition.
Internal inspection of the storage ring—
More than 10,000 ore deposits and 4,000 empty ore deposits remained untouched.
These are all trump cards reserved for magical artifacts; it would be a waste to use them as a means of refining energy.
enough.
Zhao Chen slowly stood up, his gaze fixed on the depths of the starry sky where the flames of war had not yet subsided.
The battle between angels and void creatures continues, the stench of blood permeating the galaxy.
And he, the true mastermind in this dark game of chess.
The most terrifying hunter in the endless starry sky,
