STAYING ALIVE CAUTIOUSLY IN THE CELESTIAL REALM AND BECOMING THE STRONGEST

Chapter 769: Chapter 769: Infinity Mirror

Acquired Realm Martial Artist!

Shao Hongcheng excitedly leapt to his feet, rushing to Wang Chen in a single bound, and said with a quivering voice, “Junior brother, am I dreaming?”

Wang Chen couldn’t help but laugh and feel touched, “Senior brother, you’re not wrong, I’ve already broken through to the Acquired Realm!”

Although Shao Hongcheng’s primary reason for recruiting him into Hongyi Martial Hall and accepting him as a disciple was to ensure the continuity of the hall and the inheritance of the sect,

this nominal senior brother was genuinely kind to Wang Chen, providing him with all sorts of resources with all his might.

Not to mention anything else, just the five Blood Marrow Pills alone had depleted most of Shao Hongcheng’s fortune.

Wang Chen was not ungrateful, “Senior brother, I will surely win the championship for you in the martial hall competition!”

The champion of the martial hall competition would not only receive substantial rewards, but the martial hall they represent would also benefit.

Wang Chen had such confidence and also intended to make a name for himself in the martial hall competition.

“Good, very good!”

Shao Hongcheng clapped and laughed heartily, “This time it’s in the bag!”

Before, he had already had a high estimation of Wang Chen, predicting that Wang Chen could break through to the Acquired Realm within two months, solidify his realm, and then enter the martial hall competition. Securing a top-three position was almost certain.

He never expected that in less than a month, Wang Chen had already advanced to the great realm of the Acquired!

This speed was simply too fast.

Fast to the point that Shao Hongcheng felt it was surreal, even giving rise to a bit of worry, “Junior brother, the Acquired Realm is completely enough for you right now, just stabilize it, and don’t rush too fast.”

Improving one’s cultivation realm too quickly can easily lead to an unstable foundation, which is a major taboo in martial arts.

Wang Chen wasn’t just fast, he was practically flying!

Wang Chen smiled and said, “But senior brother, I want to break through to the Innate before the martial hall competition.”

Shao Hongcheng was stunned, “But there’s only a little over a month left until the martial hall competition.”

Wang Chen nodded, “That’s enough.”

Shao Hongcheng looked at Wang Chen blankly, as if he were looking at a visitor from beyond the heavens.

His not going mad on the spot was a testament to his mental strength.

The hall master actually believed that Wang Chen wasn’t bragging and really had such confidence!

“Innate…”

Shao Hongcheng savored the word, his expression changing unpredictably.

Innate, that was once his greatest dream!

Shao Hongcheng’s expression turned bitter, “Junior brother, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I really can’t do anything about the Innate Pill required to advance from the Acquired to Innate.”

Getting the Blood Marrow Pills had already been a desperate gamble for him. The even more precious Innate Pills were legendary treasures that were simply beyond the reach of a mere martial hall master like him.

Such an item could only be treasured by a few Noble Clans in Red Cliff City!

When it came to the Innate, they would definitely not give it to others.

“No need for the Innate Pill.”

Wang Chen was indifferent, “Senior brother, I just need the subsequent cultivation technique of the Unlimited Profound Skill.”

The “Unlimited Profound Skill” was categorized as a skill on the panel. What Wang Chen had cultivated was only the first part, which stopped at the Acquired level, without the Dharma Technique secrets for breaking through to Innate.

As for the Innate Pills that others considered treasures, they were entirely optional for Wang Chen.

Because after condensing true martial arts qi, he had already seen the road leading to higher levels.

What he lacked was the corresponding cultivation technique.

As for the resources needed for cultivation, with Wang Chen’s current cultivation strength, hunting for them was not a problem at all.

“Wait a moment.”

Shao Hongcheng didn’t hesitate, immediately opening the secret chamber in the study in front of Wang Chen and brought out a box from inside.

He opened the box, revealing a palm-sized bronze mirror inside.

Wang Chen paused slightly in surprise.

Because the bronze mirror was unexpectedly in the style of a Bagua, and the circumference was densely covered with tiny True Seal Talisman Script.

It was clearly a type of Magic Artifact!

Shao Hongcheng took out the bronze mirror, caressed it a few times, then reluctantly handed it over to Wang Chen, “Junior Brother, the latter part of the Unlimited Profound Skill’s cultivation technique is contained within this Infinity Mirror, and you will need to comprehend it yourself.”

After a pause, he spoke gravely, “Junior Brother, this Infinity Mirror is the Infinity Sect Leader’s Holy Object, and by accepting it, from now on, you will be the Sect Leader of the Infinity Sect!”

Wang Chen: “Ah?”

He had only wanted the cultivation technique, not the position of Sect Leader of the Infinity Sect!

Shao Hongcheng said with a wry smile, “Junior Brother, don’t refuse. No one else but you can take this position. I’ll never be able to make our sect prosper in my lifetime, so I’m placing all my hopes on you!”

Shao Hongcheng’s determination made it difficult for Wang Chen to refuse outright.

He nodded and accepted the Infinity Mirror.

The Infinity Sect consisted of just Wang Chen and Shao Hongcheng, so there wasn’t any need for an elaborate ceremony; thus, the handover was simply concluded.

Having handed over the Infinity Mirror, Shao Hongcheng seemed to have shed a great weight, as if he had unloaded a heavy burden.

His whole demeanor lightened.

He spoke with a smile, “Sect Leader Junior Brother, the future is in your hands now!”

Wang Chen awkwardly responded, “I will do my best.”

With the atmosphere having reached this point, he could only try his best to play along.

But he was definitely going to find a way to repay Shao Hongcheng for this token of brotherhood!

The hall master had not finished yet; he handed over a key to Wang Chen, “This is for the secret chamber, it’s all that’s left of the Infinity Sect’s possessions. Don’t look down on it, I’ve recently exchanged quite a bit for Blood Marrow Pills.”

Wang Chen certainly did not look down on it, but he firmly refused to take it, insisting that Shao Hongcheng continued to keep it.

The two talked for a long time.

Having broken through to the Acquired level, Shao Hongcheng, who only peaked at Marrow Refinement, could no longer offer guidance in the martial path. With most of the Martial Pavilion’s assets gone, Wang Chen realized that to advance to the Innate level, he would have to rely on himself.

After a long talk with Shao Hongcheng, Wang Chen formed a preliminary idea.

Returning to his own residence, he took out the newly acquired Infinity Mirror from his chest.

After examining it for a while, Wang Chen was certain that this item was a Magical Treasure.

To be precise, a Third Order Magical Treasure!

Wang Chen speculated that it was likely left behind by a Cultivator who had come to the Foggy Mountain Realm.

It was almost certainly a Nascent Soul!

Because according to his reasonable deductions from the information he had, a Nascent Soul (Demon King) entering the Foggy Mountain Realm could retain its true form and equipment, while those at the Golden Core (Great Monster) and Purple Mansion levels would, like him, undergo a “soul transmigration” and possibly lose their memories, necessitating a self-awakening.

The one who could have left behind the Infinity Mirror must surely be a being of the Nascent Soul tier!

This made Wang Chen even more curious about the mirror in his hand.

He held the mirror, silently operated the Five Elements Skill’s Dharma Technique, and drew out a strand of nature’s spiritual energy from his Dantian to infuse into it.

The Blood Marrow Pill contained an exceedingly faint amount of nature’s spiritual energy, which Wang Chen, while refining the medicine’s power, also sealed within his Dantian.

In the Haotian Realm, this bit of nature’s spiritual energy wouldn’t even be enough to activate a low-level Talisman.

But in this world, it was exceptionally precious.

Wang Chen didn’t even dare to refine it into Mana, fearing it would be outright consumed.

He hadn’t thought about how to use this bit of nature’s spiritual energy before, but now it immediately found a use.

As the nature’s spiritual energy was infused, the Infinity Mirror suddenly emitted a blinding light!
