Dashing Student-Chapter 1132: Perfecting the Physique

The elder of the Yuan Family died within the Star Constellation Sword Formation, and Chen Nan’s injuries were severe; the Shadowless Silk nearly cut his body into pieces, with wounds so deep they showed bone.

Such grave injuries almost cost him half his life, and any slight movement brought piercing pain, yet he savored it.

This is because once these serious injuries healed, under the effect of the "Heaven-breaking Body," his physique would become even more resilient, and with the Fifth Grade Spiritual Medicine soon in his grasp, the effect of the "Heaven-breaking Body" would be even stronger.

To avoid any unnecessary delay, Chen Nan went forward to collect the storage bag from the elder of the Yuan Family, and after probing it with his Divine Sense, he was shocked.

The storage bag held hundreds of thousands of Mid-grade Spirit Stones, a considerable amount of Elixir Pills and talismans, and various other items, all of which in total surpassed the value of just Spirit Stones.

After all, this was the wealth of a high-level cultivator at the Golden Core Realm, extremely abundant, making it so that Chen Nan wouldn’t have to worry about cultivation resources for a long time.

He then quickly proceeded to where the Moonlight Immortal Grass was located, activated an array with a Sealing Technique, and a brilliance shone, grazing the ground as it severed the Moonlight Immortal Grass.

White juice oozed from the cut, resembling blood, and the leaves curled, with the moonlight at the tip trembling slightly, like a wounded beast, as the Spiritual Energy within the stem and leaves dispersed rapidly.

A thickness akin to a gentle breeze surged from the array, like a massive hand firmly grasping the Immortal Herb, locking its Spiritual Energy from leaking.

Once the Immortal Herb stabilized completely, Chen Nan continuously cast several Sealing Talismans, all prepared before he entered the Penglai Secret Realm.

Finally, a rectangular Jade Box flew from his hand, enclosing the Moonlight Immortal Grass within, marking the completion of the harvesting.

Without any preparation, upon cutting the Immortal Herb, the Spiritual Energy and medicinal potency inherent would dissipate quickly, turning it into nothing but a mere weed eventually.

Having done all these, Chen Nan swiftly left the valley, finding a secluded place, set up a sealing array, and entered the formation.

A gleam of green light sprang from his body, growing quickly upon reaching the ground, turning into a wooden house surrounded by countless vines breaking through the soil.

This was his Wood Demon.

Inside the wooden house, while his injuries hadn’t healed, Chen Nan retrieved a wooden bucket from his storage bag, filled it with water, and lit a fire beneath it.

He threw in herbal medicines one after another into the boiling hot water, and the diffusing mist carried a medicinal aroma; finally, the Fifth Grade Moonlight Immortal Grass was thrown in.

Instantly, the boiling hot water rapidly changed color, pure white and smooth, resembling milk, with a special fragrance permeating, filling him with an indescribable pleasure upon a single whiff.

Unable to hold back, Chen Nan stripped off his clothes, jumping straight into the wooden bucket. The densely packed wounds on his body, upon touching the white hot water, felt no pain but an itch, like a gentle massage.

"So comfortable..."

He closed his eyes slightly, indulging for a moment, comfortably wanting to fall asleep, though he forced himself to stay awake, operating the "Heaven-breaking Body" to absorb the medicinal potency of the Moonlight Immortal Herb and other herbs.

In just a moment, his body turned a bright red, like a cooked prawn.

The rising steam gradually enveloped Chen Nan’s figure, while above the wooden bucket appeared an illusory shadow of a moon, gently swaying like a moon in water.

Three days passed in a flash.

The milky water in the bucket became exceedingly clear, and Chen Nan’s wounds had long healed without a trace.

The moon’s shadow above the bucket stirred with countless ripples, ultimately transforming into a stream of light, merging directly into Chen Nan’s body.

This indicated that the last trace of energy from the Moonlight Immortal Herb was entirely absorbed by him.

"Hoo!"

Chen Nan exhaled a long breath, abruptly opening his eyes, a sharp light flicking past, standing up, water droplets trailing down his skin.

Clenching his fist, feeling the significantly increased power within, he couldn’t help but laugh: "Now the ’Heaven-breaking Body’ is finally complete!"

With the aid of the Moonlight Immortal Herb, Chen Nan’s "Heaven-breaking Body" was finally perfected, not only possessing the special effect of "growing stronger with injuries" but greatly increasing his Recovery Power.

It was several times better than its incomplete version and ensured he wouldn’t die from injuries.

Also, the abundant medicinal potency of the Moonlight Immortal Herb, besides completing the "Heaven-breaking Body," directly boosted Chen Nan’s cultivation to the Second Layer Middle Stage of the Golden Core Realm, equating to an entire Realm advancement.

"Truly worthy of the name Immortal Herb, if only there could be a few more." Chen Nan muttered to himself, knowing it was impossible.

The Fifth Grade Spiritual Medicine is a rare encounter; even Nascent Soul Stage monsters coveted it. Wherever it appeared, he wouldn’t have had a chance to act on it, counting himself lucky this time with no one else discovering it.

After stabilizing his cultivation again, Chen Nan took out an item from his bosom, nearly invisible to the naked eye, each thread as fine as a hair.

This was the Shadowless Silk!

Ever since it was used by the elder of the Yuan Family, he had coveted it. This fine thread could attack and defend, unpredictable and indestructible, a rare treasure.

Chen Nan wouldn’t miss such a Secret Treasure, especially as his trusty Wind Roar Sword was destroyed, intending to use the Shadowless Silk as a substitute.

He sat down beside and began refining the Shadowless Silk, channeling all his Mana and Divine Sense into it, leaving his imprint.

The refining process was easy, as the original owner was deceased; it was only after refining that Chen Nan realized he had underestimated the Shadowless Silk.

There was only one Shadowless Silk, but it could stretch very long, folding back and forth creating an illusion of abundance, even weaving into a net.

The thread was tough, resistant to blades and axes, which gratified Chen Nan greatly, never having to worry it might break, as it wound invisibly around his finger.

It could be used instantly when needed, especially excellent for ambushes.

After refining the Shadowless Silk, Chen Nan again donned the appearance of Sun Jiancheng. Though he previously provoked several families, none caused the Sun Family any headaches.

So before leaving, he wanted to pull off one last big act. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"I heard a valuable treasure might emerge in the Penglai Secret Realm; perhaps I should stir things up."

Almost everyone in the Secret Realm had their eyes on this mysterious treasure, and if he created chaos wearing Sun Jiancheng’s guise, the impact would be exceptional.

In any case, he was determined to make the Sun Family infamous, relentlessly drawing hatred towards them.

"If I happened to seize the treasure, others might be furious enough to spit blood."
