Chapter 237

The three forces surrounded Zi Chen. Everyone thought that Zi Chen would definitely die, but the result was beyond their expectations.

"The latest news is that Zi Chen fought a fierce battle with the three evildoers. He was seriously injured, but he escaped successfully."

As soon as the news came out, the world was shocked.

First, they checked whether the news was true or false. A day later, it was confirmed that the brother of a friend of an itinerant cultivator's uncle, who was a servant of the Li Family, gave the accurate news.

Zi Chen was still alive.

"Oh my god, he's really alive."

"He didn't die in the face of the siege of the three forces. After a fierce battle, he escaped with serious injuries."

"Miracle, this is a miracle. Zi Chen is the creator of miracles."

"He's going to defy the heavens."

Zi Chen escaped again, which shocked the world. All the itinerant cultivators were happy for Zi Chen. At this moment, Zi Chen represented all the powerless itinerant cultivators in the world and counterattacked the major forces.

He created a magnificent feat and performed a miracle.

"Bullshit, what fierce battle? This thief is very slippery. He actually found the entrance to the underground water and escaped."

The three forces felt wronged. There was no fierce battle at all. They just surrounded Zi Chen. Many people didn't even see Zi Chen's face before he escaped.

But now the outside world was abuzz with the news that Zi Chen fought with the evildoers of the three forces. After the battle, the world shook and the sea dried up and the rocks crumbled. Although he was seriously injured, he escaped successfully.

The three forces were in a difficult situation, but they couldn't speak of it.

The high-profile comeback of the three evildoers actually made the itinerant cultivators in the world stand on Zi Chen's side. Various versions appeared.

All of them were unfavorable to the three forces.

Although none of them were true, everyone liked to hear about it. Sometimes, even they didn't believe what they said. It was pure imagination.

However, the three forces became the object of imagination of the itinerant cultivators in the world, which was somewhat embarrassing.

"It's all because of this greedy monk. He's greedy and despicable. If it weren't for him, Zi Chen would have been dead."

The Tyrant was also plotting for Zi Chen's belongings and had been following him all the way. However, he was not on the same path as the other three forces. Naturally, there were some small conflicts between them.

However, this conflict was fatal at the critical moment. Zi Chen's repeated attempts to escape had something to do with the monk.

After the shocking battle in the canyon, Zi Chen seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth, vanishing without a trace. No matter how hard the three forces and the assassins from the Heavenly Slaughter Pavilion searched for him, they could not find a single clue.

Lightning Dominion.

It was rumored that the Lightning Region was formed after a corner of the mysterious Lightning Divine Hall was shattered, and for the sake of this corner of the Lightning Region, a large sect was destroyed.

And this large sect was the Boundless Sect.

After seeing the Lightning Territory and understanding its origins, Ah Mo sighed endlessly. It was as if he had returned to ten thousand years ago, an era filled with war.

"What exactly is the Lightning Divine Palace?" Zi Chen hid in the fourth level of the Lightning Region and asked.

After escaping all the way to the south, Zi Chen finally hid in the Lightning Region. This was probably something that no one would have thought of.

Furthermore, to the outside world, the Lightning Region was a dangerous place. Even those who came by flying would not dare to enter, but Zi Chen could enter unimpeded. This was the best place to hide.

"It is rumored to be the inheritance of a god. If someone could enter the depths, they would be able to obtain the inheritance of the Lightning Divine Hall. From then on, they would become immortal and indestructible, becoming the Lightning Divine Hall."

Ah Mo hid in the Taiji diagram. This was the Lightning Region, and lightning was a fatal threat to a soul like him.

"Could there really be immortal and indestructible gods in this world?" Zi Chen was astonished.

"I don't know. In any case, I have never seen it before. Everything is just a legend. However, the Lightning Divine Hall truly exists. Every once in a while, it would appear."

"Then what about your old master? His battle strength was unparalleled. Could it be that he was not a god?" Zi Chen asked.

"My old master's strength was unprecedented. However, there was still a certain gap between him and a god. Gods are known to be immortal and indestructible. Everything that is destroyed and killed is not a god. A true god is immortal and indestructible." Ah Mo's voice was somewhat melancholic.

"Since he is immortal and indestructible, then why is there a god's inheritance? Where did the inheritance come from? What about the previous Lightning God?" Zi Chen was unwilling to accept this.

"This."

Ah Mo was startled. Clearly, he had never thought of this question. Everyone was blinded by the Lightning Divine Hall. It was enough that there was an inheritance. Who would think about where the inheritance came from?

After pondering for a moment, Ah Mo said, "I also do not know. Everything is just a rumor. I have never seen what the Lightning Divine Hall looks like. Back then, when the sects attacked the Lightning Divine Hall, I also do not know."

What was the Lightning Divine Hall? Practically no one could explain it clearly. In the entire Sky Martial Continent, there was only one version that was passed down. That was that the Lightning Divine Hall contained the Lightning God's inheritance. Once one obtained it, they would be immortal and indestructible.

However, countless years had passed, and no one had ever ascended the Lightning Divine Hall.

Lightning Region's fourth level.

With the Spatial Spirit Ring, there was no need to worry about food and drink. Zi Chen simply went into seclusion here to recover from his injuries.

Stalk after stalk of spirit herbs were swallowed by Zi Chen into his stomach, refining them to recover from his injuries.

Seven days later, after refining all of the thousand year old spirit herbs, Zi Chen's bones began to emit popping sounds, as if beans were being fried. His entire body was overflowing with golden light. His injuries had already completely healed.

After a series of fierce battles and continuous fleeing, Zi Chen's strength had once again improved a little. He was now one step closer to the True Energy Boundary.

Within Abdomen, the golden Zhen Qi was even denser. However, it was still far from enough to step into the True Energy Boundary.

When others broke through to the True Energy Boundary, a single True Energy Pill was enough. However, Ah Mo insisted on not letting Zi Chen use the True Energy Pill. Instead, he worked hard to raise his strength. Once the Zhen Qi in his body reached a certain limit, it would naturally transform into True Energy.

"What you cultivated before was the Heavenly Lightning Body Tempering Art. If I'm not wrong, this cultivation technique's early stage is to temper the body. Only when you reach the True Energy Boundary is the true tempering of the body. Furthermore, you also cultivated a supreme secret technique. The combination of the two techniques allowed you to cultivate a perfect body. This is an extremely terrifying physique. It is said to be perfect, without any flaws."

"Perfect body cultivation is not easy to come by, and breaking through is even more difficult. When you break through to the True Energy Boundary, there might be some changes. Before you break through, you have to prepare in advance."

Ah Mo hid within the Taiji diagram and warned.

His words were not without reason. The Heavenly Lightning Body Tempering Art had already completed the tempering of the body. Presumably, the next step would be the true tempering of the body. After recovering from his injuries, Zi Chen sat cross-legged for another two days to completely stabilize his state of mind. After making all the preparations, he took out the ice lotus.

The ice lotus had been sealed in ice for five thousand years. At this moment, it appeared, emitting a brilliant light. Every lotus petal was crystal clear and exquisite. It was like a perfect ice sculpture without any flaws.

"Ka Ka."

As the golden Zhen Qi was injected, cracks appeared on the solid ice. As the cracks spread, it finally exploded. The five-thousand-year-old ice lotus appeared in Zi Chen's hand.

The ice lotus was like a piece of solid ice. It was cold to the touch and crystal clear. It emitted a rich spiritual energy. As soon as it appeared from the solid ice, the spiritual energy began to dissipate. Even the air was cold.

Zi Chen took a deep breath and prepared for the breakthrough.

"Pop."

With a golden light in his hand, a lotus petal shattered and turned into a ball of rich spiritual liquid. Zi Chen took a big breath and the spiritual liquid was pulled into a line of water and was sucked into Zi Chen's mouth.

As the spiritual liquid entered his mouth, it was cool and very comfortable. As it entered his stomach, it turned into a cool energy and flowed into his meridians.

"Hum."

Zi Chen's entire body was glowing with a golden light. The supreme secret technique, along with the Heavenly Thunder Reshaping Incantation, was constantly circulating. Before this energy entered the Dantian, it was first absorbed by the body.

The energy contained in a lotus petal was almost unimaginable. It took a full two days for it to be completely absorbed. The golden light around Zi Chen's body was even brighter.

"Pop." "Pop."

Another two lotus petals shattered, turning into spiritual liquid and entering Zi Chen's abdomen. An even denser spiritual energy surged towards his limbs and bones, and even into his body's bones.

A 0,555-year-old spirit herb contained immense spiritual energy. Zi Chen absorbed it very carefully.

However, the Perfect Body, which should have reached its limits, was like a huge desert under the rich spiritual liquid. No matter how much spiritual liquid was injected, it couldn't satisfy the desert.

At this moment, Zi Chen realized the uniqueness of the Perfect Body. It was like a bottomless pit that couldn't be filled at all.

His strength didn't break through, but his Perfect Body was still growing. It hadn't reached a limit. Golden Quintessential Energy surged in Abdomen. It was just a little short of perfection.

"Pop." "Pop."

The lotus petal exploded and the energy entered his stomach. This energy was absorbed by his heart and then through his blood, it entered his bones and meridians. Finally, it was completely refined by the Supreme Secret Canon.

Time passed. In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed.

Zi Chen had refined five lotus petals. There were still four petals and one stamen left.

The golden light around him became even richer. His Perfect Body became stronger again as golden lightning surrounded his body.

"Pop." "Pop." "Pop." "Pop."

The golden light in his hand tapped four times. With four consecutive sounds, the four petals shattered and the rich spiritual liquid entered his stomach.

Zi Chen sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. His body shimmered with golden light as he looked solemn. His Perfect Body was constantly transforming. At the same time, golden lightning lingered on his body. This was a sign that his lightning Quintessential Energy was about to reach perfection.

The energy of the four petals was also absorbed bit by bit.

"Pop."

Time passed. In the end, the stamen exploded and turned into pure spiritual liquid that entered Zi Chen's body.

This was a 0,555-year-old ice lotus. The spiritual energy it contained was indescribable. Zi Chen originally imagined that it wouldn't be used up, but he never expected that just his Perfect Body would absorb two-thirds of the ice lotus's energy. Only when the final third was reached did he give some energy to Abdomen.

Hum.

The golden light around Zi Chen trembled as streaks of golden lightning swam around his body. When the stamen's energy was completely absorbed, Zi Chen finally reached the peak of the Xiantian realm.

He had finally broken through to Connate perfection. At this moment, the Quintessential Energy in his body reached a limit. When the conditions were right, it would naturally transform into Quintessential Essence.

"Boom!"

But at this moment, a strange change occurred. The entire Thunder Dominion began to tremble. Boundless lightning exploded and a thick bolt of lightning fell from the sky, directly piercing through the Thunder Dominion's light barrier and landing on Zi Chen's body.

It was a bolt of heavenly lightning.

After Zi Chen's strength reached perfection, the Heavenly Lightning Body Tempering Art finally played its role and began to temper his body.
