Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3201: A Strand of Hair

Just like that, Jian Chen split his focus, refining the pills with one hand while pressing against the cauldron gently with the other, suppressing the violent energy within the Godking grass through Chaotic Force.

For a moment, he actually managed to continue with the refinement process miraculously.

The fluid within the cauldron was about to condense into pills.

But at this moment, Jian Chen furrowed his brows. In the next moment, there was a rumble, and a great pulse of energy erupted from the cauldron, producing cracks in the nearby mountain and making huge boulders tumble down.

“Trying to do the work of two or even three people alone really is a little difficult. I am capable of suppressing the violent energy within Godking grass, but that’ll scatter a part of my powers too. Trying to carry out the final transformation of the pills is clearly insufficient.”

“Refining Godking pills alone is a hundred times more difficult than when senior Xu Ran was around to help out.” Jian Chen immediately understood the reason and thought to himself, “Whether it’s refining the pills or suppressing the violent energy within Godking grass, I can manage either one of them with ease if I do it separately, but when I do them together, my ability falls short of what is required.”

“This is also why other organisations of the Saints’ World have two Chaotic Primes assisting when refining Godking pills.”

“In the Tian Yuan clan, senior Xu Ran is powerful, which is why she can manage it as just one person. However, there’s no one to help me in the Darkstar World. I can only depend on myself.”

Jian Chen sighed gently and brushed off the soil and dust on him. He did not continue refining pills. Through his experience last time, he had already understood that it was completely impossible for him to refine Godking pills alone right now.

However, he did not become defeated at all. He stowed the cauldron away like normal before taking out a tea set from his Space Ring as well as a few leaves of Comprehension Tea, beginning to make tea.

“There is a way to deal with this. As long as my comprehension of the Way of Alchemy increases, I’ll be able to refine Godking pills successfully. I’m in no rush for time right now either. It’s perfectly possible for me to stay here for decades, centuries, or even longer. I can take it slowly...”

“For the sake of the ten droplets of a Grand Exalt’s essence blood, these sacrifices will be worth it...”

Afterwards, Jian Chen began to comprehend the Way of Alchemy through the assistance of Comprehension Tea.

Aside from Comprehension Tea, he also possessed the imprint of the Way of Alchemy from ancestor Lan.

As a result, as Jian Chen comprehended the Way of Alchemy, not only did he have Comprehension Tea, but he also had assistance from the imprint of the Way of Alchemy.

Ancestor Lan had only left this imprint on him casually, nowhere close to the limits of what she could actually achieve, but with her masterly comprehension of alchemy, even a tiny part of it provided endless benefit to Jian Chen’s comprehension that had only recently reached Infinite Prime.

Afterwards, Jian Chen’s Way of Alchemy grew at a rapid rate under the assistance of the Comprehension Tea and the imprint of the Way of Alchemy from ancestor Lan.

Even though it was nowhere near as fast as when he used the Heaven-splitting Divine Force, it was still much faster than other cultivators, so fast that they could only look up to such a rate.

In just fifteen years, Jian Chen welcomed his first breakthrough with the Way of Alchemy since leaving the Xuanhuang Microcosm.

He went from the Third Heavenly Layer to the Fourth Heavenly Layer of Infinite Prime!

This speed could only be described as shocking!

That was because the difficulty behind each breakthrough became greater the further on it was. Even some of the prodigies of the Saints’ World would take thousands, tens of thousand, or even hundred of thousand of years to consolidate with each step after reaching the Primordial realm.

As for those that were slightly less talented, every single step after Infinite Prime would be calculated in millions of years.

However, Jian Chen had only used fifteen years, which was truly unheard of.

However, right when Jian Chen broke through with the Way of Alchemy, a pitch-black dagger silently appeared, stabbing towards his forehead mercilessly as a black blur.

From beginning to end, Jian Chen, who was in the middle of his breakthrough, did not make any response. He simply sat there without budging as if he had not noticed it at all. He was completely defenceless.

However, the sharp dagger failed to pierce Jian Chen’s forehead. It had even failed to scratch his skin.

The person behind the dagger was the tenth hall master dressed in black, Feng Xue!

Gripping the dagger, the hint of delight in Feng Xue’s eyes from getting her revenge suddenly froze. It was soon replaced by great shock and disbelief.

That was because when her dagger touched Jian Chen’s forehead, she felt like she had hit an indestructible plate of steel. No matter how much force she used, the dagger was unable to move an inch forwards.

Wielding a god artifact dagger and launching a full-powered strike, she could not even pierce the outermost layer of Jian Chen’s skin.

“No, impossible. This is impossible. He’s clearly defenceless right now. His physical defences cannot be any lower, so how can he withstand a strike that I’ve been charging up for all this time?” Feng Xue struggled to accept this outcome.

By now, Jian Chen had completed his breakthrough. He opened his eyes slowly and gazed at Feng Xue’s face that was only inches away from his and sighed helplessly. “I’ve told you already, you can’t kill me. Why won’t you just give up?”

“Even if I don’t defend or resist, even if I just stand there and let you attack me, you can’t even harm a hair on me with your power.” Jian Chen seemed to be utterly annoyed by Feng Xue’s constant attempts on his life. He casually plucked a strand of hair from his head and passed it to Feng Xue. “Since you want to kill me so much, I’ll tell you just what kind of strength you need to be able to kill me.”

“This is a strand of my hair. When you possess the power to sever this strand of hair, it means you have the ability to harm me.”

“If you can’t even break a strand of my hair, what gives you the right to come and kill me?”

“You are very powerful, but you’ve completely overestimated yourself. With my strength as a Fifth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime, I refuse to believe I can’t even break a strand of your hair.” Feng Xue seemed to be greatly insulted as she spoke furiously, grabbing the strand of hair instinctively.

However, as soon as she made contact with the hair, she felt a sharp pain from her palm. A deep wound had already appeared on her hand.

Jian Chen’s strand of hair seemed to be condensed from sword Qi. It contained unparalleled might and power. Just a single strand of hair could easily cut through a mountain.
