Chapter 1687 Refining the Dragon Pearl, Jiang Chen Breaks Through Again

"How to make peacock feathers?" Li Xiuning's eyes lit up.

In the world of Fengyun, the Peacock Feather is unique.

The most crucial secret lies in the method of making peacock feathers. If it were truly possible to manufacture them…

"As long as we can obtain the method for making peacock feathers, we can improve upon it and produce better weapons," Jiang Chen said.

Jiang Chen knew that even in "A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality," some of the weapon refiners' techniques were not easily passed down. It wasn't that weapon refiners were of the same level, or that their skills were the same.

"I will make arrangements for Liu Xing." Li Xiuning understood Jiang Chen's meaning.

"Okay, send someone to bring Liu Xing's mother back, and then go find Jin Kaijia. This Jin Kaijia..." Jiang Chen explained the matter of Jin Kaijia.

"I'll arrange for the Imperial Guards to bring back any news immediately," Li Xiuning said.

"Ah."

Jiang Chen nodded. "Also, who sent the assassins this time? And, is there any news from the Rain Clan?"

The Rain Clan of the Ice Domain in "Seven Weapons: Peacock Feather" is a very special existence. Many members of the Rain Clan possess magical abilities, and their master is the Witch Lord. A Witch Lord must be resurrected after being killed by a divine sword to become a true Witch Lord. Each Witch Lord possesses a blue crystal called the Witch Lord's Blue Crystal, which grants them immortality. Unless the Witch Lord wishes to die, no one can kill them. Later, Jian achieved immortality through this blue crystal, but ultimately, heartbroken by love, she chose to pass away peacefully.

When Jiang Chen last came to the Fourth World, he had the Embroidered Uniform Guard investigate the Rain Clan.

“No. The Rain Clan is very well hidden; perhaps our Imperial Guards don’t have enough strength,” Li Xiuning said.

Jiang Chen understood what Li Xiuning meant.

However, this is also normal.

The Jiang family didn't invest much in the Fengyun Continent, and in addition, they wanted to unify the Fengyun Continent, so the Jinyiwei (Imperial Guards) focused most of their energy on the imperial court.

"Never mind, let's go eat first," Jiang Chen said, pulling Li Xiuning's hand.

“Okay.” Li Xiuning did not refuse.

Jiang Chen pulled Li Xiuning away.

The next day, Jiang Chen returned to Jiangzhou City.

"This time, I got something good."

Jiang Chen recounted the story of climbing the Heavenly Ladder.

“That’s great! With the Heavenly Ladder, we can bring all those who have joined the outer sect of the Jiang family to participate in the Heavenly Ladder. However, are there any restrictions on the Heavenly Ladder?” Nie Xingchen asked.

“No, but the minimum age for children participating in the Sky Ladder competition is six years old,” Jiang Chen said.

"What should our upper limit be?" Nie Xingchen asked.

"Eighteen years old," Jiang Chen said.

Eighteen years old is the limit of cultivation.

Although one can cultivate even if they are over eighteen years old, it requires more resources.

“Okay.” Nie Xingchen nodded.

Jiang Chen then recounted the rest of the events.

After completing this task, Jiang Chen went to the training tower.

Jiang Chen's purpose in coming to the training tower was simple: to refine the Dragon Pearl.

"In the series, the Dragon Balls can enhance the holder's cultivation or abilities."

"It can help martial arts practitioners make rapid progress in their skills, or satisfy desires such as greed and lust; secondly, it has the characteristic of transforming the body."

"It can achieve eternal youth or improve physical fitness; in addition, the Dragon Balls can also stimulate the user's potential, but if one's intentions are not pure, it may cause side effects, such as loss of reason."

"As the hereditary guardians of the Dragon Balls, the Chamu tribe's chieftain is born with the special ability to resonate with the Dragon Balls. In the series, Chamu Dragon can control the Dragon Balls through his bloodline and communicate with Shenron."

"The control mechanism of the Chamu tribe is based on bloodline talent and ritualistic protection."

"Specifically, the guardians of the Chamu tribe directly control the Dragon Balls using their innate bloodline abilities. This ability allows them to guide the energy of the Dragon Balls and resist their deceptive illusions. At the same time, the Dragon Balls will actively protect the Chamu tribe, for example, by bringing their members into the system space or illusions to maintain their safety during times of crisis."

"In addition, the Chamu tribe strengthens its control over the Dragon Balls through ritualistic places such as the Dragon Cave to ensure that they are not abused by outsiders, and the mutual resonance of the Dragon Balls also supports the Chamu tribe in maintaining balance in complex situations."

"Most importantly, controlling the Dragon Balls is all about willpower."

"Intention, to put it simply, is mental power."

"That is, the divine consciousness of the Southern Continent."

Jiang Chen took out a dragon ball and enveloped it with his spiritual power.

"Is this mental power?"

"It served a similar purpose to the Imperial Seal of the State in the Third World during the Sui and Tang Dynasties."

"The Great Evolution Technique can now be absorbed and refined."

At that moment, Jiang Chen activated the Great Evolution Technique and began to absorb and refine it.

The eight Dragon Balls do not all contain spiritual power.

Some Dragon Balls contain energy that increases cultivation level.

Some Dragon Balls contain energy that improves physical condition.

This reminded Jiang Chen of the legend of Dragon Ball.

Legend has it that there was a powerful demon in the heavens who wreaked havoc on both the celestial and mortal realms. He was eventually defeated by the god of justice, and his demon was scattered into eight Dragon Balls, which are guarded by a dragon. If the eight Dragon Balls were to come together, they would possess immense power…

The eight Dragon Balls contain different energies.

Mental strength, increases cultivation level, improves physical constitution...

It's like separating and storing the energy of a powerful being.

Jiang Chen didn't know if the original owner of this energy came from the Heavenly Realm, but he had to admit that the energy in this Dragon Ball was very strong.

However, for Jiang Chen, all of this energy could be absorbed and refined.

After all, the Nine Heavens Clan Suppression Technique incorporates the Northern Darkness Divine Art.

During Jiang Chen's cultivation, one dragon ball after another was refined.

The training tower's tenth to fourteenth floors are for Martial King realm cultivators, the fifteenth to twenty-fourth floors are for Martial Emperor realm cultivators, and the twenty-fifth to thirty-second floors are for Martial God realm cultivators.

Although Jiang Chen has now broken through to the Myriad Manifestations Realm, the later levels of the training tower have not yet been unlocked, so he can only cultivate on the thirty-second level of the training tower.

This time, Jiang Chen stayed in the training tower for a full ten months.

Yes, that is, one month in the Fourth World.

During these ten months, Jiang Chen absorbed and refined the energy of all eight Dragon Balls.

"it is finally over."

Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief and then opened the attribute panel.

"Strength increased by 3345, Constitution increased by 3326, Spirit increased by 6981, and Agility increased by 5690."

"Strength and physique have not increased much, but mental strength and agility have increased significantly, almost doubling."

"This is the Dragon Ball that contains spiritual power."

"And agility may be related to improved physical condition."

"After absorbing and refining these Dragon Balls, the four attributes have become much more balanced."

"Was this an accident? A coincidence? Or was it all part of fate?"

"The clan's fortune increased by 4526 points, which is the increase from the clan's development during this period. Not bad."

"I currently have 266 attribute points left. With these points, breaking through shouldn't be too difficult."

"However, if I had to undergo tribulation to break through before, I'm afraid I'll need to undergo tribulation again to break through next."

"But we are not ready to undergo the tribulation yet, so we should focus on preparing for it first."

"However, you need to break through when your attribute points reach 20000. Even if you only need the Free and Unfettered Heavenly Technique normally, you might break through within half a month."

"So, time is running out."

Jiang Chen realized the key to it.

However, improving one's cultivation level is a good thing.

This means he has enough strength to find cultivation resources. Only with enough cultivation resources can the other members of the Jiang family better improve their cultivation. Hmm, this is called the rich helping the poor, oh no, it's the strong helping the strong.

This is one of the reasons why Jiang Chen didn't give the Dragon Ball to anyone else. After consolidating his cultivation, Jiang Chen left the training tower.

"call."

The ten months he spent in the training tower, even though only a month had passed outside, were the longest period of seclusion for Jiang Chen.

Leaving the training tower at this moment, I felt that the air outside was fresh.

This feels so good.

"As expected, I am not suited for seclusion."

Jiang Chen felt that if he were to spend a long period of time in seclusion while increasing his strength, it would be better not to cultivate at all.

only……

Just as Jiang Chen was about to take the next step, suddenly, the dark clouds parted.

"Oh no, is it a lightning tribulation?"

Jiang Chen's expression changed drastically.

She immediately sensed that the tribulation lightning was coming for her.

Jiang Chen dared not delay, so he flew south on his sword.

To speed things up, Jiang Chen added hundreds of Gale Talismans to the Tai'a Sword.

When Jiang Chen's physical attributes reach 9173 points, his flight speed is 28,865 kilometers per hour, his flight duration is 3,448 minutes (57 hours and 26 minutes), and his total flight distance is 1,658,775 li.

Physical attribute 10000 points, flight speed 33,000 kilometers per hour, flight duration 3,861 minutes (64 hours and 21 minutes), total flight distance 2,123,550 kilometers.

After breaking through to the Myriad Manifestations Realm, one attribute point is added, flight speed increases by eight kilometers per hour, and flight duration increases by one minute.

Physical attribute 19925, flight speed 112,400 km/h, flight duration 13,786 minutes (229 hours and 46 minutes), total flight distance 25,825,773 km.

The speed of flying on a sword is 1.5 times that of flying through the air.

Even at a speed of one hour, it can cover 150,000 to 160,000 kilometers per hour

Although the lightning tribulation in the sky has begun to condense, it will still take time for the lightning tribulation to condense.

Therefore, before the lightning tribulation condensed, Jiang Chen was already 50,000 kilometers away from Jiangzhou City.

On a small island, Jiang Chen prepared to face the tribulation of lightning.

"Damn it."

"This is a tribulation of spiritual power breakthrough."

Jiang Chen never imagined that breaking through a mental power realm would also require undergoing a tribulation.

This thwarted his plan to extend his time to transcend the tribulation.

Boom!

At the edge of the sky, a lightning ball, hundreds of feet in size, slowly emerged, flickering. Surprisingly, this lightning ball was purple. Centered on the purple lightning ball, the sky for thousands of miles around turned purple, and everything in sight became a deep purple background.

Although the purple lightning ball was silent, Jiang Chen could sense the terrifying aura of destruction contained within it.

boom!
Loud noises continued to resound, and the purple lightning ball grew even larger, with a deep and imposing sense of oppression descending from the sky.

That powerful pressure came not only from the body, but also from the mind.

The purple lightning ball didn't rush down immediately; instead, it slowly grew larger and brighter, its power increasing until it became like a sharp sword hanging high above, slowly piercing down, leaving no escape and causing immense torment.

There were no buildings on the island, only sand. Under this powerful force, all the sand was stained a deep purple, then slowly floated up and gradually disintegrated in the face of this unparalleled power.

The sound of sand and soil cracking came from the ground, and in the blink of an eye, the area within a thousand miles was covered with deep purple sand and soil.

These sands will continue to decompose indefinitely until they become particles that the power of the lightning tribulation can no longer break down. All objects entering the lightning tribulation area will be treated the same as sand.

Sitting idly by and waiting for death is certainly not Jiang Chen's style.

Jiang Chen continued to choose to temper his body through lightning tribulation.

Having had previous experiences, this tribulation of lightning tempering the body was not difficult.

But yes.

This is the tribulation of spiritual power breaking through from the Spirit Realm to the Spirit God Realm.

It is equivalent to the tribulation of breaking through from the Martial God Realm to the Myriad Manifestations Realm.

Above the sky, the purple lightning ball suddenly split apart, instantly becoming five. The central lightning ball remained a hundred feet in size, while the other four split-off purple lightning balls were much smaller, only half the size of the central one.

Silently, the four small purple lightning balls transformed into purple lightning bolts, pouring down from the sky.

In an instant, purple lightning struck Jiang Chen's head.

Jiang Chen activated the Thunder Tempering Body Technique.

Each bolt of lightning tribulation was absorbed and refined.

Two hours later.

"it is finally over."

"However, this body tempering method has limited potential for power breakthroughs."

"I can't break through yet..."

Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes.

If his strength breaks through, he might be able to advance from the Myriad Manifestations Realm to the Giant Spirit Realm through body refinement, but since he hasn't broken through yet, he only has two choices.

The first option is to give up on the breakthrough and wait a few days before attempting it.

The second method is to utilize attribute points to break through at this time.

"Since we've already come to undergo the tribulation, let's break through it first. We'll break through sooner or later anyway, so a few more days won't make a difference. Although I'm not ready for the tribulation, it's not like I can't break through now."

With that in mind, Jiang Chen used his attribute points to increase his physique.

next moment.

boom!
A powerful aura erupted from Jiang Chen.

This is the aura of the Giant Spirit Realm.

Thunderclouds rolled across the sky, their gloomy light threatening to crush the heavens. From the depths of the dense clouds, streaks of blinding lightning occasionally flashed, accompanied by continuous rumbling thunder.

Jiang Chen watched the lightning tribulation gathering in the sky while rapidly recovering.

at this time.

A terrifying bolt of lightning descended from the sky, completely illuminating the area where Jiang Chen was. The lightning was not particularly powerful, and it disappeared without a trace in just a moment. The lightning did not leave a single mark on Jiang Chen's body. Just now, Jiang Chen only felt a faint tingling sensation.

Jiang Chen looked up at the sky filled with thunderclouds and slowly closed his eyes.

Rumble!
A deafening thunderclap.

A bolt of lightning as thick as an arm, flashing with aurora, struck Jiang Chen's body with a fierce thud, instantly turning his thin clothes into ashes.

Jiang Chen's expression remained unchanged.

He leaped into the air and met the lightning tribulation head-on.

Thunder rumbled, and streaks of blinding blue lightning struck Jiang Chen one after another.

Jiang Chen clenched his fists, veins bulging on his face, as bolts of lightning passed through his body and eventually disappeared into the world. For a full half hour, countless violent bolts of lightning struck Jiang Chen. From initially struggling in pain to eventually enduring it almost numbly, Jiang Chen nearly fainted several times. If he had actually fainted, his fate would have been unimaginable.

at last.

boom!
A powerful aura erupted from Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen has broken through to the Body Refinement Realm.

He broke through from the Myriad Manifestations Realm to the Giant Spirit Realm.

Rumble!
The lightning tribulations in the sky gathered once more.

Jiang Chen's body-refining tribulation lightning descended.

"Boom... Boom..."

A deafening roar of thunder, accompanied by lightning, suddenly descended from the sky, the thick bolts of lightning flashing with blinding white light.

Jiang Chen's mind and spirit moved in unison, his hands constantly changing as he formed intricate and profound hand seals. Layers of dim lightning emanated from his body.

With a wide-open mouth, Jiang Chen fearlessly swallowed a lightning snake carrying destructive power. After swallowing a bolt of lightning, Jiang Chen's face instantly turned red and blue. The intense pain instantly spread throughout his body, to every meridian and every inch of skin in his limbs and bones.

Jiang Chen's eyes suddenly widened, and before he could make a move, a barrage of lightning bolts from the sky bombarded him. He swallowed the dazzling bolts of lightning, and the heat and turmoil within his body intensified, seemingly reaching a state of saturation.

Jiang Chen quickly stopped absorbing the lightning and began to focus his energy in his dantian, refining the raging lightning within his body. The excruciating pain caused Jiang Chen's face to gradually contort.

But Jiang Chen had no choice.

Jiang Chen understood that he could only prepare for the upcoming tribulation by refining the essence as quickly as possible.

Jiang Chen swallowed the pills one by one.

boom!
A thunder dragon roared out from the sky.

The lightning bolt descended from the sky and struck Jiang Chen hard.

Jiang Chen screamed in agony as blood spurted from his body.

"Pfft!"

Jiang Chen coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Just then, a lightning tribulation rapidly condensed in the sky, and an even more terrifying lightning dragon crashed down.
