After becoming invincible, start having fun in the world

Chapter 383 Spiritual Plants and Magical Treasures

"Why do you say that?" Wuxian asked, somewhat curious.

After being pulled into an unknown spiritual space and fighting a battle with what appeared to be a fairy, Chu Ke's first words upon emerging were to ask the fairy if she felt no pain. This suggests that something truly impactful must have happened in the spiritual space.

"Just some guesses." With a thought, Chu Ke slowly retracted a purple, tentacle-like object from his palm, leaving a small but not insignificant blood hole.

“From what you told me before, fairies are born from the condensation of free-floating material spirits by sentient beings. Sentient beings refer to things like souls and consciousness, while material spirits are the components that make up the body. Since the bodies of fairies are shaped by material spirits that are actively condensed by sentient beings, they must be able to control some structures, such as Xiao Hei’s growth and Feng Xi’s transformation into a demon.”

"To be more specific, there's that blue fairy who uses ice. I clearly cut off one of his legs, but when I saw him again, he had already recovered."

Chu Ke held up a finger: "Nerves are also part of the body. Can fairies sever the pain-sensing part of nerves to achieve a state without pain?"

Wuxian's mouth slowly opened a crack, his eyes gradually becoming vacant, then he suddenly came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "As far as I know the fairies, none of them can do such subtle changes. At most, they rely on their combat experience or instinct to have a stronger tolerance for pain."

“Here I want to correct one of your points—the act of fairies condensing free-floating material spirits is actually closer to instinct, an unconscious action, just like…” Wuxian gave an example: “Living beings are born able to control their own limbs without needing any teaching of principles.”

"However, if you can open up the spiritual space and raise your control over the spirit to a higher level, you can also do such a thing."

"Instinct?" Chu Ke didn't ask any further questions.

As for opening the spiritual space, or rather, becoming a god and being able to block out pain, Chu Ke felt it was only natural. If one could achieve immortality but still couldn't make minor adjustments to one's physical body, Chu Ke would really have to wonder what kind of immortal this new generation was cultivating.

However, all of the above exchanges were just a cover for Chu Ke. The real reason that made Chu Ke ask this question was the purple vine that had burrowed into Chu Ke's flesh and blood.

To be precise, this is part of the Fengxi meridian.

Feng Xi did not die. After that sword fell, Chu Ke already sensed that the demon in front of him was probably not its true form. Sure enough, after the physical body was worn away and dissipated by the sword energy, this meridian was left behind.

This is an ability to create clones by stripping away meridians.

It should be understood that the growth of meridians can even be said to be connected to the soul. Feng Xi's actions are equivalent to taking a knife and carving out a piece of his own soul to create a clone. What Voldemort?

Is the Pure Pain Tolerance King good? Even Chu Ke would only use this method to temper his Dao Heart, open up new Dantian, and improve the resilience of his soul, which led to the speculation that fairies might not feel pain.

Of course, the advantages are also obvious. Judging from the battle, the strength of this clone should be no different from that of the original body, and even the total amount of spirit is about the same. Unlike the shadow clones in Naruto, which need to divide the original body's chakra depending on the number of clones.

As a portion of Fengxi's meridians were forcibly absorbed into Chu Ke's body, a strong rejection reaction arose, but Chu Ke managed to withstand it with the powerful avatar brought by the "Dragon Tiger Body".

He wanted to try to connect his meridians with the wind energy.

According to Wuxian, a person's ability depends on their spiritual space, which is the dantian, and the meridians are an extension of the dantian. Perhaps he can obtain something from it?

The connection process went smoothly, after all, Chu Ke had a history of expanding his meridians and dantian. The only problem was that the rejection was quite strong, but the surging power of the three dantians was still able to suppress it.

Specifically, the flesh and blood near the meridians begin to lignify, and some meridians even begin to grow wildly, piercing through the skin and growing into something resembling a small tree.

Under Chu Ke's perception, something was indeed stored in Feng Xi's meridians, confirming that the dantian and meridians were similar to the relationship between a hard drive and RAM. Now that this rejection reaction had been resolved, Chu Ke would most likely be able to obtain Feng Xi's current complete abilities. "It will still take some time."

Chu Ke broke off the fleshy sapling and directly refined and consumed it.

"I hope I don't end up turning myself into a powerful medicine. Oh well, I'll just have to take it one step at a time."

Chu Ke quickly put that matter out of his mind and began asking about something else.

“What about Xiao Hei? According to you, Xiao Hei with a [Domain] is very dangerous. Moreover, Feng Xi has shown many different abilities this time, which he didn’t have last time.”

"Maybe Feng Xi is from the Uchiha clan. If he copies Xiao Hei's domain, you'll be in for a lot of trouble."

Frowning endlessly.

Although he didn't know what the Uchiha reference meant, he understood the rest of the sentence.

"Did Fengxi really demonstrate other abilities?"

"Quite a few: cloud formation, noise, explosion." Chu Ke counted Feng Xi's skill set bit by bit.

“Noise. Thin sound?!” Wuxian thought of something: “I’ll contact the guild. If you’re right, then the wind’s breath is probably not as harmless as we thought.”

“I’ll call someone over; she’s very good at finding people.”

"Whatever, just remember to ask for leave for me."

Chu Ke didn't care about any of that; he just stared blankly at the piece of iron in Wuxian's hand.

Before this, Chu Ke had already noticed that the iron piece in Wuxian's hand seemed quite special. Not only was it very hard, but it was also very malleable. It was obviously some kind of alloy. Its already superb spirit control ability was further enhanced by this good weapon.

It seems I also need to develop a magic weapon.
How can a sword cultivator be without a sword?

If you have a good magic weapon, you won't need to rely on your physical body to bear the sword light when using sword techniques next time. This will improve both the ability to reduce energy consumption and the aesthetics.

However, the sword Chu Ke needs is not ordinary. After all, he has eight parts of the light wheel type of saw blade sword energy, and he will definitely develop all kinds of sword energy in the future. Therefore, the shape of the sword cannot be just a sword.

That's easy to solve. Take the infinite sheet of iron for example, he can even draw it into threads and then knead it back.

Moreover, I've heard there's an ability called "Locking and Control," which is specifically designed for this purpose.

Once he truly accepts Fengxi's abilities, and if he inherits the ability to copy others' skills, he will also try to acquire a lock-and-control ability to create a sword for himself.
