Chapter 2108 - 2076: The Terrifying Master
"Here!"
Inside the flying boat, Li Chen pondered for a long time before finally inscribing a jade slip with his divine sense and tossing it to Xiao Chihan.
"From now on, you will practice this. I’ve modified it based on your original cultivation technique, so there shouldn’t be any problems with the switch." Li Chen said, "Your original technique was indeed good; otherwise, you wouldn’t have smoothly ascended through practice. Now I’ve improved it and completed the Heavenly Level parts, so you can continue practicing it."
"Thank you, Master!" Xiao Chihan bowed respectfully to Li Chen, but then looked at the jade slip handed to him with a puzzled expression: "But Master, how do I use this?"
Li Chen couldn’t help but slap his forehead: "I forgot, you don’t have your divine sense yet."
"Hold on."
Li Chen thought for a moment, then jumped onto the flying boat and grabbed a few herbs.
The Fire Rule surged briefly, transforming into a blazing flame, and Li Chen directly enveloped the herbs with True Yuan.
Soon, a few pills landed in Li Chen’s hand.
If other Heavenly Pill Alchemists saw this, they would probably be utterly stunned.
Without any tools, just relying on a few herbs to conduct alchemy in the void—this is simply impossible!
Of course, to Li Chen, nothing seems impossible.
As a top-level Space Law expert, Li Chen could perceive even the slightest fluctuations of the herbs through space, and could directly seal the space as if using it as an alchemy furnace.
Not to mention alchemy in the void, even artifact refining in the void would be feasible.
So why bother crafting a furnace specifically for alchemy?
Oh, actually, Li Chen does have an alchemy furnace, but for him, alchemy in the void is far more efficient.
"Master, what kind of technique is this?" Xiao Chihan secretly poked his head out from the flying boat, aghast at Li Chen effortlessly producing several pills, and couldn’t help but ask dumbfoundedly.
"These, for now, you can’t learn yet. We’ll talk about it once your cultivation improves." Li Chen chuckled, patting Xiao Chihan’s head and pushing him back into the flying boat, then tossing the pills in his hand to Xiao Chihan.
"These are Jade Heart Pills. Your foundation is good, and you’ve reached the final step of Breakthrough. Take it and prepare for Middle Heaven Tribulation." Li Chen said.
Li Chen has great experience as a teacher, and even if he didn’t, with his cultivation realm and insight, nurturing a disciple isn’t a problem. Besides, Xiao Chihan truly has reached the final step of Breakthrough, and facing a tribulation is only a matter of time; this pill not only causes no side effects but also provides an extra boost to Xiao Chihan’s tribulation crossing.
"Take it, and you can become a Heaven-level Expert?" Xiao Chihan stared at the pills in his hand, somewhat dumbfounded.
It’s not that he’s inexperienced; he originally was an Earth-Level Warrior from the Lower Realm who ascended through countless hardships. He immediately took up apprenticeship upon ascending, exhibiting quick thinking.
Yet he didn’t expect his newly acquired master to promptly present him with such a grand gift, leaving him speechless.
In the Lower Realm, Heaven-level Experts exist only in legend, but can a small pill really make him one?
"Smack!"
Li Chen couldn’t resist reaching out and giving Xiao Chihan’s head another tap, laughing as he said, "Don’t daze around, hurry up; what’s so surprising about breaking into a Heavenly Level? Let me tell you, I have many students; you are my first formal disciple. If you can’t even reach the Domain Realm, I’ll seal you in a Different Space personally; don’t come out for the rest of your life, so you don’t embarrass me!"
"Domain Realm?" Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Xiao Chihan couldn’t help but shiver.
During his master’s study of cultivation techniques, an alter ego had come out to explain the realms beyond the Heavenly Level to him, letting him know that there are so many divisions of realms beyond the Heavenly Level.
Especially the Domain Realm, which in the Heaven Realm is known as Heaven King, powerful enough to forcefully leap an order within ordinary cultivators to defeat enemies!
His Heavenly Level hasn’t even been attained, yet Li Chen casually throws out a sentence that pressurized him enormously.
However, after a brief hesitation, Xiao Chihan’s intention of Seeking the Dao became firmer, and he swallowed the pill given by Li Chen.
Soon, he felt an immense and boundless fiery power rising from his dantian, which instantly enveloped his whole body. In the next moment, it directly charged towards the threshold leading to the Heavenly Level.
"Crack!"
He barely felt any resistance; the door he struggled countless times to shake in the Lower Realm easily shattered.
At that moment, Xiao Chihan felt something and abruptly looked up.
"The Heavenly Tribulation has arrived."
Li Chen waved his hand: "Go out and face the tribulation; escape far away. I’m a nemesis of Heavenly Tribulations, and if they find I’m beside you, who knows if they’ll get desperate."
Xiao Chihan was speechless.
He found out quickly that his newly acquired master was indeed outrageously formidable.
To say you’re a nemesis of Heavenly Tribulations—either you’re mad or as powerful as it gets.
And clearly, his master didn’t seem mad in any conceivable way.
Telling Xiao Chihan to flee far away, Li Chen promptly opened a space gate to escape a good distance after Xiao Chihan left the flying boat, genuinely fearing the Heavenly Tribulation’s deceit.
After all, he had suffered sneak attacks from Heavenly Tribulations more than once.
And Li Chen wasn’t wrong in saying he was their nemesis.
Several times, Heavenly Tribulations descended, almost killing him. Meanwhile, he had managed to break them apart several times too.
It’s like the two sides were perpetually targeting each other.
Yet at his current realm, he somewhat understood faintly.
Luck is mighty but not all-important.
It grants him boundless fortune, accelerating his cultivation growth, causing Supreme Treasures to seemingly fly to him, but also bears a series of side effects.
These side effects stem from the cosmic rules of the Starry Universe’s origin.
The side effects directly target Heavenly Tribulations, with their power merely manipulated and used by the interference from origin rules. After all, Heavenly Tribulations possess no consciousness or intention; they’re purely a mass of energy.
"My disciple possesses the ’pick and practice a cultivation technique to ascend’ kind of protagonist aura; is he potentially influenced by luck too? If so, then his Heavenly Tribulation might also face some trouble." Li Chen stroked his chin, wondering internally.
