Chapter 1490: Refining the Anatta Tower
However, when the destructive power was about to reach Jian Chen, he suddenly removed a damaged piece of armor from his Space Ring and equipped it.
“Ta Ji’s armor!” The red-robed boy immediately cried out when he spotted the armor. His face was filled with disbelief, and soon afterward, he and Jian Chen were drowned by the destructive power.
...
After quite some time, the destructive power from the Immortal Emperor’s essence blood vanished and the entire floor returned to peace once again.
The space on the ninth floor of the Anatta Tower still existed. The eruption of the blood was like a tiny wave in the vast ocean, unable to damage the tower at all. The sky possessed the same color while the projection of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng continued to radiate a blinding, golden light. Probably only the cracked ground recorded the brutal scene from earlier.
Jian Chen and the red-robed boy had vanished from the world as well. Neither one of their presences lingered on the ninth floor. Only a damaged piece of armor silently lay on the ground. It was covered with dirt while the person who had been wearing it was nowhere to be seen.
At this moment, light suddenly began to flicker from within the dirty, damaged piece of armor. The next moment, a ball of light flew out and hovered in the air.
Only now was the figure of a person visible. He was only as tall as a finger but glowed with a white light. It was the origin energy of Radiant Saint Force. A golden speck of light flickered within the finger-sized person, and at a closer glance, it was actually a tiny, golden tower.
This was naturally Jian Chen’s soul. After the drop of Immortal Emperor’s blood had erupted, he was unable to completely protect himself even with the help of the damaged armor. His body was destroyed, but in a crucial moment, he hid his soul in the armor, which was why he was able to escape disaster.
Jian Chen’s soul hovered in the air and looked around. He then sat down where he was. In a few seconds, a thrum seeming to ring out. The Zi Ying Sword and Qing Suo Sword erupted from the dirt and emerged from the ground. They arrived beside Jian Chen’s soul. They thrummed loudly, guarding him.
Soon, a bloody thing flew out of the soul. It hovered below Jian Chen’s soul. To no surprise, it was a piece of Jian Chen’s flesh.
The soil near Jian Chen began to surge after the first piece of flesh appeared. More bloody pieces burst forth before gathering below Jian Chen’s soul.
As more and more pieces of flesh gathered from the surroundings, a body completely formed from the remains of various sizes gradually gathered. It was covered with blood but powerful energy pulsed in each droplet of blood.
Jian Chen looked down and saw the body formed from mince meat. He sighed as he shook his head. He had already devoted everything he had to gathering his own flesh and blood, but a section of it had been destroyed by the power of laws and was completely gone, making it impossible to gather. Jian Chen gathered all the pieces of his body he could sense right now, but there were only enough to reassemble a major portion of his body. He still needed his own power to regenerate the other parts.
Fortunately, the vitality of the Chaotic Body was extremely great. Coupled with his abilities as a Class 9 Radiant Saint Master, making a full recovery was nothing difficult.
With a thought, Class 9 Radiant Saint Force origin energy immediately flew out of his soul. It turned into an extremely dense, white light, which enveloped his ruined body. Meanwhile, his chaotic neidan spewed out strands of Chaotic Force. The Chaotic Force was circulated everywhere, not only forcing his flesh to quickly regrow, but it also sped up the regeneration process.
Under the dual effects of Chaotic Force and Class 9 Radiant Saint Force origin energy, Jian Chen’s missing pieces slowly began to regrow. All the cracks and wounds on the body he had pieced together rapidly disappeared as well. Even all his blood flowed back into his body, returning to his flesh.
At the same time, streams of chaotic blood, still wet and hidden beneath the soil, all burst forth and flew out of the ground. They all returned to Jian Chen’s body through his mouth.
The chaotic blood was significant to Jian Chen. Although it was possible for him to replenish the missing blood with his Chaotic Body, it would exhaust a large amount of Chaotic Blood.
Jian Chen would not have needed to care if he had only lost a small portion of his blood, but basically all his blood had been scattered across the land. He needed to get it all back.
Fortunately, he cultivated the Chaotic Body, so every piece of flesh and drop of blood was connected to his consciousness. Finding the droplets was not particularly difficult.
Jian Chen had never been so injured before. He had been reduced to a soul. If his soul had not hidden in the damaged armor, he probably would have died. He had truly been embroiled in a battle of life and death against the artifact spirit. It had been a very long time since Jian Chen had come so close to death.
He used more time than he usually would spend recovering in order to rejuvenate his missing parts. He finally made a full recovery after two whole days and had used three whole strands of Class 9 Radiant Saint Force origin energy.
Jian Chen removed his Space Ring from the artifact space and slowly placed it on his finger. He then took out a new set of clothes from his Space Ring and changed into them. He silently sensed the body that he had just recovered and realized that the comprehensions of the Way of the Sword had not been destroyed, allowing him to let out a breath of relief. At the same time, he discovered that the four strands of sword Qi were still hidden within his right arm, but since they had been overused, it was extremely difficult for them to dish out strong attacks. Even though they could still force out attacks at Receival, they were nowhere near as powerful as a strike from Jian Chen with the Zi Ying Sword.
“This artifact spirit should have dispersed due to the explosion of the blood as well. After all, he had already been weakened after the battle with me. He wouldn’t have had the power to flee when he was so close to me,” Jian Chen thought. Even though the battle against the artifact spirit was extremely brutal, he was a Class 9 Radiant Saint Master, so as long as his soul remained, he could recover his body very quickly, unlike regular experts who needed a very long period of time and high quality medicine.
Jian Chen possessed a huge advantage with this aspect. He did not have to worry about being injured. He could even recover his wounds during battle.
Jian Chen picked the damaged piece of divine armor that had saved his life off the ground. He gently brushed off the dust on it. He could not help but think back to what the artifact spirit had said when he had pulled out the essence blood and his shocked expression when he saw the armor in his final moments after making the blood explode.
“The master of this armor is called Ta Ji. I never thought that he’d actually be the disciple of the Anatta Grand Prime. Looks like the remains scattered throughout the Sea of Despair were left behind by him,” Jian Chen thought. He pondered, “Looks like the Anatta Grand Prime engaged in a great battle here with his disciple and probably died during that battle, which is why the Anatta Tower ended up here. If the Anatta Grand Prime didn’t fall, he definitely would have recovered some strength after so much time and would have found it difficult to remove the seal from the Nirvanic Immortal Exalt.”
After a moment of silent thought, Jian Chen focused his attention. His eyes landed on the projection of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng nearby. He seemed to see a pure-white stone tablet within it.
The stone tablet was physical and not a projection. It seemed like it had always existed on the ninth floor and had probably been covered up by the projection of the palace. The stone tablet seemed to belong within the palace.
Jian Chen walked toward the palace. There were a total of nine hundred ninety-nine steps outside the palace. They were illusory as well. He could clearly see the ground beneath them.
Jian Chen hesitated as he stood before the steps. He placed his foot on one to test it out, but to his surprise, even though the steps were illusory, they seemed solid when he stood on them.
Jian Chen made his way up the steps step by step. He was heading toward the palace. He entered the structure and made his way to the pure-white tablet.
The stone tablet was white, like jade, and as smooth as a mirror. It was three hundred meters tall. When Jian Chen stood before it, he felt like an ant standing before an elephant.
“Master, this should be the control center for the Anatta Tower. Let out your soul and use your consciousness to sense it,” Zi Ying’s voice rang out. The two swords were revolving around Jian Chen, watching over him.
Jian Chen closed his eyes and let out his soul. He gradually approached the tablet with his consciousness, and when he successfully entered the tablet, the tablet immediately spat out a piece of information.
Jian Chen opened his eyes and excitedly stared at the tablet. The tablet just happened to be something crucial for controlling the Anatta Tower. He had obtained the refinement method from it.
“There are nine layers of the Anatta Tower to refine. Refining the first layer will grant you the most basic controls of the tower. The more layers you refine, the more control you will have over the power. At the same time, the power you can use will grow.You can only use all of the tower’s power after you refine all nine layers.”
