Chaotic Sword God Chapter 1631: Refining the Cloud

Chapter 1631: Refining the Cloud

As soon as Jian Chen entered the blood-red cloud, he felt a trendous pressure crush in from all directions as if mountains were pressed up against him. His body suddenly sank, and his movent speed beca greatly affected. At the sa ti, a presence filled with evilness entered Jian Chen’s head, affecting it soul. He felt like he had begun to hallucinate.

Jian Chen’s eyes narrowed, and the light in his eyes flickered. He concentrated and suppressed the hallucinations that the evil power triggered. Then the twin swords hovered above him and shone with azure and violet light, forming a screen around him. Chaotic Force filled every inch of his body at that mont as well, working with the twin swords to keep out the pressure from the cloud.

After all, the blood-red cloud had power equivalent to the evil spirit at its peak condition. Even though the powers of the Primordial Godsilk had purified a third of it, the remaining portion was still far greater than Jian Chen. If the consciousness of the evil spirit were still present, Jian Chen and the Spiritking would not be his opponent even if he could only control the remaining two-thirds of the power. Even though the evil spirit had been destroyed now, the blood-red cloud still pressured Jian Chen to a certain degree.

Jian Chen did not approach the center of the cloud. Instead, he stopped in the outskirts after travelling a hundred ters in. He sat down there sternly.

Even though he knew the evil spirit had been destroyed, Jian Chen still did not dare to be careless in the blood-red cloud because the cloud’s power was just too great. It had surpassed Deity. He even wondered if Gods could control powers as great as the cloud.

Jian Chen sat in the blood-red cloud. He sucked in a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes. He began to absorb the power in the cloud carefully. Jian Chen was uncertain whether his Chaotic Body could absorb this power as it was just too trendous and possessed an extrely evil presence. He was even less certain whether the power would be detrintal or beneficial to him, so he did not act recklessly at all with the attempt this ti. He only absorbed a tiny sliver of the power that was about the size of a needle.

Jian Chen’s body began to quiver violently when he absorbed the tiny sliver before he could even get to refining it. As soon as the power entered his body, it erupted with an extrely great might like gunpowder. The terrifying shockwaves almost severed all of Jian Chen’s ridians.

The sliver of power was just too great, to the point where Jian Chen almost failed to endure it with his eighth layer Chaotic Body. Not to ntion that he had only absorbed a needle size amount of that power. If he had absorbed more than that in one go, he would beco severely injured to the extre.

Jian Chen gritted his teeth and endured the excruciating pain silently. Every ti his Chaotic Body progressed to a new layer, he would have to undergo the pain of refining his body. It would be torturous every ti, so the pain from this tiny sliver of power could not be compared to it. It was nothing for Jian Chen to endure such pain.

Chaotic Force surged within Jian Chen’s chaotic neidan. It produced strands of Chaotic Force as Jian Chen practised his cultivation thod, devoting himself to refining the sliver of power.

Even though the power from the cloud was powerful, he was only refining a tiny sliver of it. Jian Chen refined it in just a short while.

Jian Chen did not beam in joy at all after refining the sliver of power. Instead, he frowned. He opened his eyes slowly and murmured, “This sliver of energy has actually been refined to nothingness. It has brought no benefits. Is it impossible to refine the power within the cloud?”

“That’s impossible. Chaotic Force is a power of the highest level in the entire universe. Aside from Xuanhuang Qi, there is no power that can rival Chaotic Force. Even Yin Qi and Yang Qi originate from Chaotic Force. Although my Chaotic Force is nowhere near true Chaotic Force, it should still exhibit so of the characteristics of true Chaotic Force. Although the power of the cloud is greater than the eighth layer Chaotic Force I possess right now, it’s still a power without an owner. Logically speaking, there should be quite a high chance of successfully absorbing and refining this power,” Jian Chen quickly overthrew the thought that the Chaotic Body was unable to refine the power of the cloud. According to his understanding of Chaotic Force, it could absorb all energies and powers in the world. It was not classified amongst the five elents in the world. Of course, that was given that the power was within the range that his Chaotic Body could withstand.

Jian Chen did not give up and continued to absorb and refine the power of the cloud. He beca even more confident that his Chaotic Body could absorb the power of the cloud after his thoughts earlier. He would never consider such action if the power of the cloud was still under the evil spirit’s control, but the power had now beco dead, unable to put up any resistance at all. That was enough for the possibility of refining the power for himself.

With the progression of every layer, the energy required by the Chaotic Body would increase by several folds, making it an extrely power-hungry cultivation thod. He had reached the eighth layer now, so the number of resources Jian Chen required to reach the ninth layer was simply unimaginable. The Tian Yuan Continent would never possess enough of what he needed. If the power left behind by the evil spirit could help his Chaotic Body progress, it would be Jian Chen’s fortune, even if it was not enough for him to reach the ninth layer. He could never pass by this opportunity.

Jian Chen also failed with his second attempt. The sliver of power he had absorbed was forcefully refined into nothingness within him, leaving nothing behind at all. His Chaotic Body did not grow either.

Jian Chen did not beco discouraged and continued. However, his third attempt resulted in failure as well.

He failed the fourth ti.

He failed the fifth ti.

Finally, after five attempts, Jian Chen succeeded. The needle of power he had absorbed had finally been refined into a strand of Chaotic Force, becoming his own power.

“I understand now. It’s impossible for every strand of the cloud’s power to be refined into Chaotic Force due to its special characteristics. I need to collect the essence, but the difficult part is that the essence can’t be found so easily.” Jian Chen’s eyes shone. As long as he could refine the cloud’s power into Chaotic Force, it was sothing worth celebrating over, even if it would take a long ti.

Even though he would fail many tis during the refinent of the cloud’s power, as long as he could refine a single strand of it, his Chaotic Force would grow slightly. The increase would not be drastic, but it would be equivalent to years or even decades of absorbing the energy of the world.
