Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest-Chapter 597 - : The Talent’s Qualifications
Chapter 597: Chapter 597: The Talent’s Qualifications
Facing the inquiry from Long River True Person, Wang Chen immediately took out the remaining two Reverse Spirit Vermilion Fruits without any hesitation.
“So it is the Reverse Spirit Vermilion Fruit…”
Seeing the fruit branch held in Wang Chen’s hand, Long River True Person had a somewhat peculiar look in his eyes, “You gave one to Sulan, right?”
Wang Chen nodded, “Master has discerning eyes.”
“She has really gone to great lengths for the sake of her own brother.”
Long River True Person clearly knew the inside story and spoke with a touch of emotion, “These past years have truly been hard on the child.”
He then asked, “How do you plan to deal with the remaining two Vermilion Fruits?”
Wang Chen answered without hesitation, “Disciple intends to use one for himself.”
As for the last remaining one, whether to sell it or exchange it for cultivation resources, or keep it in hand was all possible.
Long River True Person understood, “Your Root Bone is a bit lacking.”
Wang Chen’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.
His master had undoubtedly long since seen part of his secrets, but had never said anything.
Wang Chen’s Root Bone was at most of an above-average level, and the speed of his Cultivation Realm’s improvement was so fast that, in the eyes of those with intentions, it might bring about unpredictable trouble.
Yet Long River True Person had no intention of digging into his secrets.
“Let me help you.”
Long River True Person reached out with his hand and made a grasping motion, and the two Vermilion Fruits instantly detached from the branch, falling into the palm of his hand.

Wang Chen did not move.
He did not believe that the other party would covet the Reverse Spirit Vermilion Fruit.
In the hands of the Golden Core True Person, a soft Spiritual Light blossomed, completely enveloping the two fruits.
The Vermilion Fruits opened without sound, the vermilion sap oozing out and quickly condensing into a blood-red sphere of liquid.
Once the essence of the two Vermilion Fruits was extracted and unified, Long River True Person flicked his finger, and the dragon-eye-sized essence of the Vermilion Fruit shot out instantly, hitting Wang Chen’s forehead.
Wang Chen felt a coolness at his brow, a fresh and lively aura surged into his body in an instant, swiftly spreading down to his five viscera and six bowels, and throughout his limbs and bones.
At the next moment, Long River True Person’s voice sounded beside his ear, “Circulate your energy and refine the medicinal power; I will protect the law for you.”
Wang Chen immediately sat down cross-legged, stimulating the Innate Five Elements Skill to refine the essence of the Vermilion Fruit that had entered his body.
The two Reverse Spirit Vermilion Fruits contained extremely pure spiritual power from heaven and earth, along with an indescribable vigor and vitality, which soaked into every inch of Wang Chen’s muscles and bones, finally converging within the long bones of his spine.
A heat arose instantly from the Dantian, surging straight up to the Heavenly Gate!
From the top of Wang Chen’s head, a misty white vapor emerged.
At this moment, Wang Chen endured an unimaginable agony.
It felt as if every bone in his body was being crushed and smelted by an invisible force, then recombined and solidified.
This cycle repeated over and over!
If it weren’t for his exceptionally strong will, it would be normal to faint on the spot.
Wang Chen was well aware that this was the power of the Vermilion Fruit at work, so he did his utmost to stay conscious and calm, continuously urging Mana to guide the boiling Qi-Blood inside his body.
Time passed bit by bit, and Wang Chen had no clear idea how long he had held on.
Just as his consciousness began to blur, a prominent notification suddenly popped up in his field of vision.
[Root Bone +3]
[Comprehension +2]
Wang Chen almost jumped up on the spot!
3 points, his Root Bone had actually increased by a whole 3 points.
To think, Wang Chen’s four major basic attributes had all been increased four times, and any further increase would require 10,000 Heavenly Merit, adding 3 points to Root Bone would need 1,110,000 Heavenly Merit!
Wang Chen didn’t even want to calculate how many Cultivators he would have to kill to acquire such an immense amount of Heavenly Merit.
The harvest now feels like a dream!
10 points in Root Bone are enough to propel Wang Chen into the ranks of the talented.
His greatest weakness was undoubtedly completely compensated for, and his cultivation realm’s upper limit was thereby raised to an extremely high level.
At the very least, there are no longer any innate gifts standing in the way of Core Formation and Baby Condensation!
As for the additional 2 points in Comprehension, that was an unexpected delight.
At this moment, Wang Chen even felt somewhat elated.
From now on, Wang Chen no longer needed to envy those exceptional geniuses; his innate gifts had already surpassed most cultivators, placing him in the upper echelons.
It took a tremendous amount of willpower for Wang Chen to maintain his composure before rising to salute and saying, “Thank you, Master!”
Without the help of Long River True Person, he would have had a difficult time dealing with the two Reverse Spirit Red Fruits; if he had swallowed them directly, the effects would certainly not have been as potent as they were now.
“This is your fortune, no need to thank me,”
Long River True Person waved his hand and said, “After you go back, go into seclusion and solidify your gains.”
This Golden Core True Person seemed to think of something else and added, “Unless it’s necessary, don’t go out again; first increase your cultivation realm.”
Wang Chen: “Yes.”
“Go.”
After leaving the Taoist Palace, Wang Chen then returned to Tingtao Villa.
In the following days, he secluded himself within the villa, devoting himself wholeheartedly to cultivation.
With his Root Bone increased to 10 points and Comprehension up to 9 points, Wang Chen distinctly felt that his cultivation had become much easier.
The experience gained for his main practice, the Innate Five Elements Skill, sped up significantly, meaning the efficiency of his cultivation had improved.
Given the current pace, he could attempt a breakthrough to the sixth layer of the Purple Mansion in at most three months!
However, a new issue emerged.
With the change in his talents and the improvement of his cultivation level, Wang Chen found that the world’s rejection of him was intensifying.
What was previously imperceptible had now become rather obvious.
If the Mountain and Sea Realm were compared to a person, Wang Chen would be akin to an emerging cancer cell!
The world began not to accommodate him.
Although this comparison might not be quite apt, the nature of the situation was indeed quite similar.
Outsider Heavenly Demon!
“The only way to break free from the chains of karma in this world is to ascend to the Upper Realm!”
Wang Chen couldn’t help but recall Wu Xiang’s words.
This eminent monk once told him that he carried great karma which for the time being shielded him from the secrets of heaven, making him unfathomable; however, as his cultivation realm rose higher, the calamities he would encounter would also escalate, until he met his demise.
This was the natural reaction of the Heavenly Way; unless Wang Chen, like Wu Xiang, slowly integrated into this world starting as an infant, spending countless time eroding karma, he couldn’t escape a calamitous end.
This revelation also made it impossible for Wang Chen to settle his mind and continue in seclusion.
In the end, it was a Talisman Message from Yin Sulan that prompted Wang Chen to leave his meditation room and meet with his senior sister in West Sea Immortal City.
When Wang Chen saw Yin Sulan again in a refined room at the Carefree Pavilion in West Sea City, he found her looking radiant and full of life, in excellent spirits.
He couldn’t help but smile, “Senior Sister, have you encountered some good fortune?”
“My brother has recovered.”
Yin Sulan smiled lightly, “Junior Brother Wang, I really owe you a lot this time. I’ve discussed it with my family, and you only need to say whatever you need. As long as the Yin Family can do it, just ask.”
“The Yin Family’s secret vault is fully open to you. Take whatever you fancy!”
