Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest - Chapter 106: 106 Promotion · Incident Occurs

Chapter 106: Chapter 106 Promotion · Incident Occurs
In the blink of an eye, Wang Chen was wrapped from head to toe by countless vines, forming a large cocoon!

These dark brown and dark red vines looked like octopus tentacles, their surfaces covered with densely packed suckers, which upon closer inspection were actually full of sharp-toothed mouths.

Thousands of tiny mouths frantically bit at Wang Chen’s protective magical armor, while oozing corrosive saliva that immediately produced wisps of gray smoke upon contact with the shield.

If Wang Chen’s Spirit Light Shield Armor had not been sturdy enough, it would have crumbled in an instant, making him fodder for the monster.

But his armor couldn’t last much longer.

As the evil monster hidden in the fog continued to exert force, the mana-formed armor fluctuated violently, with the spiritual light becoming dimmer and dimmer, on the verge of collapse.

Wang Chen, likewise, was lifted up forcefully, like a fish on a cutting board!

At this moment, he could feel the greedy and thirsty intentions of the enemy all too clearly.

The monster wanted to tear open Wang Chen’s defense.

It sought to devour his essence of flesh and blood, to drain his mana and Qi energy, and finally imprison his Divine Soul to use as a puppet!

The villainous intent was so intense that it made all the hairs on Wang Chen’s body stand on end.

But at this time, Wang Chen did not panic or fear.

Because his power had not truly exploded yet!

“Duo!”

Uttering a true word, Wang Chen’s body swelled and enlarged at an astonishing speed.

His muscles bulged one after another, his stature rapidly shooting up nearly two feet.

He became a muscle-bound mini-giant.

Empowered by the Mighty Strength Technique!

Hiss, hiss, hiss!

The clothes on his body instantly tore apart, revealing pale gold skin as hard as cast steel and poured bronze.

The Heavenly Dragon Vajra Body!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The vines that tightly wrapped around Wang Chen couldn’t withstand his sudden burst of strength and began to break apart, segment by segment!

Even though Wang Chen’s protective magical armor dissipated, the golden light emanating from his body shone on the broken sections of vine; it was as if the sun was melting the snow, making them sizzle and melt away swiftly.

“Squeak!”

The evil monster controlling the vines seemed to be doused in concentrated sulfuric acid, letting out a piercing scream from within the fog.

One after another, the severed roots quickly retreated back into the ground or darkness!

Wang Chen, now free of restraint, landed back on the ground.

The only thing left on his body was a talisman belt equipped with an expansion function, not even his shorts remained.

And on Wang Chen’s back, a crimson Heavenly Dragon revealed its true form, its fangs and claws as if about to burst forth from his body!

The Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method, truly a top-tier Body Refinement cultivation technique of the Buddhist Sect. Having cultivated to the third tier of the Golden Body, Wang Chen’s physique was extremely tough, and his Pure Yang Qi-Blood was incredibly powerful.

Under the empowerment of this technique.

The evil monster that sought to devour Wang Chen’s flesh would only succeed in breaking all its teeth!

But the breath Wang Chen had been holding back.

Had not yet been released!

Suddenly he dropped to one knee, and his tightly clenched right fist struck the ground heavily.

Bang!

The enormous force of the Vajra Fist instantly penetrated deep into the soil, shattering the roots lurking underground into countless pieces!

This punch gathered all of Wang Chen’s strength, fusing both his mana and the power of his Qi-Blood.

The Vajra Wrath Punch!

The ground where Wang Chen stood was forcibly depressed, creating a large crater!

“Squeak!”

The monster hidden deep within Chaotic Burial Mound howled once again.

Its cries were filled with pain and grievance.

And this time, its cries seemed even more distant than before.

Immediately after, the fog surrounding Wang Chen quickly dissipated, and the desolate graves and tombs became visible once more.

Yet there was no sign of any Wandering Night Spirits or Lantern Carrying Puppets.

Wang Chen took a deep look at Chaotic Burial Mound under the moonlight.

Then he turned and left.

Although he was eager to dive in and blast the evil monster that had set the trap for him into smithereens.

The unknown enemy and its home ground environment would only bring unpredictable dangers by acting on impulse.

Just wait!

Wang Chen decided to go back and level up before returning.

Even though he got nothing that evening, he had ascertained the formidable nature of Chaotic Burial Mound.

For Wang Chen, the Evil Nest had no more true secrets!

Wang Chen surmised that the evil monster hidden inside Chaotic Burial Mound must be of the Black Traveler rank.

Which was equivalent to the high tiers of Qi Cultivation.

Well, high tier versus high tier then!

…

The next morning, Wang Chen hurried to Cloud Mountain City and rented a high-tier Qi Cultivation Cave Mansion.

This time, his advancement was from the sixth to the seventh layer of Qi Cultivation.

Although it was merely a single tier upgrade, it marked a transition from mid-tier to high-tier, a threshold-breaking breakthrough.

The difficulty was undoubtedly great.

Of course, if Wang Chen were willing, he could have directly broken through and advanced by using 1 point of Heavenly Merit.

But he still wanted to try on his own.

Adding points to break the threshold was indeed simple and refreshing.

However, the improvement of one’s realm based on personal effort was much more solid and reliable.

Mose importantly,

Now Wang Chen’s Physique and Comprehension were both sufficient to support his efforts!

…

It took two days.

In the spirit energy-rich Cave Mansion, Wang Chen adjusted himself to his peak condition.

Then he began the Breaking Threshold.

The pure Five Elements Mana flowed through his meridians, and he quickly entered a state of self-forgetfulness.

In the Sea of Consciousness, the seed of the Five Elements Technique sealed with spells shone with dazzling Spiritual Light. Countless inscriptions emerged upon it, neatly swirling in an orderly fashion.

Wang Chen’s Qi Sea kept contracting and expanding, driving the Mana to soak through his organs, limbs, and bones.

Reaching every part of his body!

It was unclear how much time had passed when suddenly, a burst of Spiritual Light exploded in his Sea of Consciousness, and the Mana that filled his body to the brim violently trembled, causing all of his bones to make a crisp sound.

An invisible membrane was suddenly breached!

Qi Cultivation seventh tier, achieved in one fell swoop!!

Wang Chen opened his eyes, feeling comfortably warm all over.

His Essence, Qi, and Spirit had all reached an unprecedented level, and his strength had increased by at least thirty percent!

Is this what high-tier Qi Cultivation feels like?

Wang Chen summoned the Immortal Cultivation panel.

[Name: Wang Chen]

[Lifespan: 18/110]

[Cultivation Level: Qi Cultivation seventh tier]

[Physique: 10]

[Root Bone: 4]

[Comprehension: 5]

[Divine Soul: 3+11]

His four basic attributes hadn’t changed.

But his lifespan had surged to 110, increasing by a full 20 years!

Wang Chen was very satisfied.

The increase in lifespan was secondary; the most important thing was that his overall strength had improved.

Especially the amount of Mana his Dantian could contain, which greatly exceeded what he could hold at the mid-tier.

The explosiveness and sustainability of his battles had significantly enhanced!

He spent another two days consolidating the realm of Qi Cultivation seventh tier.

Only then did he leave the rented Cave Mansion.

This Breaking Threshold was of great importance, so Wang Chen didn’t rent the Cave Mansion in the usual fixed timeframe as before.

He paid a deposit of Spirit Stones in advance, settling the actual days used.

This way, the daily rent was a bit higher.

But Wang Chen now was not lacking in Spirit Stones.

The manager of the Cave Mansion calculated that he had used a total of seven days and a little more than nine two-hour periods of time.

In the end, he charged for just seven days and nine two-hour periods.

Wang Chen was startled.

Not only had they rounded down the cost, but the attitude of the other party was also very courteous and enthusiastic.

Had the sun risen from the west?

Perhaps noticing Wang Chen’s expression, the Cave Mansion manager grinned and informed Wang Chen.

His predecessors,

Were now all mining in Heaven Cloud Mountain!

Wang Chen understood.

With rather mixed feelings, he returned to his home.

Even though he had been away for seven days, the outside Spirit Fields were all right.

Because Wang Chen had asked his neighbor, Han Dashi, to look after them.

What he hadn’t expected at all was,

As soon as he opened the door and went in, he saw two Cultivators sitting in his courtyard.

They were gathered around a table, eating and drinking.

The ground was littered with chicken bones!

Wang Chen was immediately stunned.

“Wang Chen!”

Realizing Wang Chen had arrived, one of the robust Cultivators immediately put down his wine cup, stood up, and glowered as he bellowed.

“You’re in trouble!”
