Chapter 300: Hundredfold Amplification, the [Break] Character Breaks the Saint-Breaking Fruit!

…………

The tall human-trees were like pitch-black giant pillars, standing sternly.

Their dense branches and leaves intertwined, weaving a net as dark as night, completely obscuring the faint purple-red light of the sky.

Each human-tree fruit swayed gently in the wind, like a corpse silently screaming.

Chen Yan found a deserted spot and sat down cross-legged.

He felt some regret.

He had been careless.

He had only thought about killing just now and forgotten to collect the spoils.

Ma Tianyin and Lü Guiwen were both of the Origin Realm, and all their treasures were hidden within their own Origin Spaces.

There was no need to mention Lü Guiwen, as he had used all his strength to have his corpse teleported away.

But Ma Tianyin...

Chen Yan shook his head; since they were lost, he would not dwell on it any longer.

In any case, the three types of seeds, including the Time Seed, would recognize their master upon entering the College Entrance Examination Secret Realm; once Ma Tianyin died, his seeds would become void.

Chen Yan turned his perception to the Saint-Breaking Realm.

When he killed Lü Guiwen, his state of mind was clear, and his Fist Intent instantly broke through to the sixth grade.

Because of his insights, the Saint-Breaking Tree bore sixteen 【Intent】 Saint-Breaking Fruits at once.

At the same time, the Saint-Breaking Tree leveled up.

Level seven!

Chen Yan first swallowed these sixteen 【Intent】 Saint-Breaking Fruits.

Hum...

Chen Yan perceived the profound mysteries within the 【Intent】 Saint-Breaking Fruits, and illusory visions immediately appeared around his body, with rich, clear light circulating, incomparably intense.

Boom, boom, boom!

Fist shadows condensed into visions, rising continuously and circulating around Chen Yan.

At this moment, Chen Yan's entire body was radiating brilliant, clear light, as if a saint were entering the Dao.

"Fist Intent... Fist Realm."

Chen Yan whispered.

The path of True Intent has three major realms and nine minor grades.

True Intent, True Realm, and True Soul.

The conditions required to break through from True Intent to True Realm are mysterious and profound.

Some spend their entire lives cultivating True Intent to the ninth grade, yet never gain the opportunity to enter the True Realm.

Others, however, can have a sudden burst of inspiration after cultivating True Intent to the fifth grade, achieving unity of mind and spirit, and slipping into the True Realm.

Shen Yiwu, Chen Changyuan, and Chen Xiyuan all possessed the True Realm.

Even if their cultivation levels were not high, possessing the True Realm was enough for them to run rampant across the Great Xia.

This time, through the insights gained from slaughter, Chen Yan also obtained some reflections regarding the True Realm.

In just an instant, Chen Yan's aura became increasingly profound, and his invisible, overwhelming intent was extremely domineering.

This was Chen Yan's Fist Intent.

It pushed across everything, and only by combining it with the path of Hard Tempering could it unleash the strongest power.

And the Extreme Piercing Spear Intent, when combined with Chen Yan's path of Blood Qi, would make Chen Yan's combat even more sharp and fierce.

The difference in Fist Intent was also the fundamental difference between Chen Yan and Bing Yi.

"Why do I subconsciously separate Chen Yan from Bing Yi?"

Chen Yan felt surprised in his heart.

Sometimes, he was truly a bit confused about whether he was Bing Yi or Chen Yan.

"I still need to comprehend a martial art that combines the two martial paths."

Chen Yan radiated his might:

"Whether it is Chen Yan or Bing Yi, both are me."

Chen Yan turned his attention to the Saint-Breaking Tree.

A pitch-black, boundless, misty land.

The thick trunk of the Saint-Breaking Tree was like a swarthy pillar of heaven, weathered by time yet as solid as a rock.

Like an ancient deity, it radiated solemnity and mystery.

The lush branches and leaves were like a verdant cloud canopy; beneath the hanging cyan canopy, a single, barely noticeable chaotic-colored fruit bloomed with divine radiance.

The Saint-Breaking Tree had grown once more, as if it had completely shed its former fragile appearance.

"Old friend, seeing you is like seeing myself."

Within the Saint-Breaking Realm, Chen Yan's phantom appeared, gently stroking the ancient tree, a smile blooming in his eyes.

He looked at the data panel.

【Saint-Breaking Tree (Level 7): 0/500

Force: 0/100

Blood: 0/100

Skill: 0/100

Body: 0/100

Array: 0/100

Origin: 0/100

Intent: 0/100

Break: 0/100】

The Saint-Breaking Tree has reached level seven.

All Saint-Breaking Fruit progress has been reset to zero, and the progress bar remains at five hundred.

Chen Yan clearly felt that this advancement was completely different from the previous ones.

First, the progress bar is still five hundred, but the quality of every subsequent Saint-Breaking Fruit will be ten times what it was before.

In other words, every Saint-Breaking Fruit Chen Yan obtains from now on will be equivalent to obtaining ten in the past, but the difficulty will only be seven times greater than before.

It is equivalent to this advancement once again granting Chen Yan the effect of an Infinite Fruit from the Saint-Breaking Tree.

The Saint-Breaking Tree has broken its limits once again.

Additionally, there is the 【Break】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit.

This is different from the energy-type fruits Chen Yan obtained previously.

The effect of the 【Break】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit is to amplify Saint-Breaking Fruits.

A one-hundred-fold amplification!

That is to say, one 【Break】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit can increase the effect of any other Saint-Breaking Fruit Chen Yan obtains by one hundred times.

For example, if Chen Yan obtains a 【Force】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit at the same time he obtains a 【Break】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit.

Then this 【Break】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit can be applied to the 【Force】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit.

And then...

This one 【Force】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit becomes one hundred 【Force】 character Saint-Breaking Fruits!

A multiplier critical hit!

The speed of Chen Yan's heartbeat increased slightly.

With a one-hundred-fold amplification, that one 【Break】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit would be enough to raise Chen Yan's strength to an extremely exaggerated level.

Of course, the conditions required to nurture a 【Break】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit are also very difficult.

【Break】!

The literal meaning.

The growth condition for the 【Break】 character Saint-Breaking Fruit is the number of times Chen Yan has broken his limits.

Moreover, it is not just ordinary limit-breaking.

Limit-breaking has quality.

The limit-breaking Chen Yan practices in his daily life does not provide much limit-breaking energy.

But the limit-breaking energy brought about by breaking through the limits of a realm is quite exaggerated.

A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Yan's mouth.

It was hard not to smile.

When it comes to breaking limits, others might not be proficient at it.

But this is his domain.

Who told him to be the Master of Will.

Chen Yan composed his mind and then opened the communication formation disk.

When he switched the communication channel to the public channel, the sound of breathing could clearly be heard from within the disk.

But at this moment, no one spoke.

He Youtong and Jiang Yuan were both tacitly remaining in silence.

Chen Yan directly switched the communication channel to Jiang Yuan's side.

The voice of Jiang Yuan came from within the formation disk.

"Buddy, what are you trying to do? You're making things very difficult for me."

Jiang Yuan's laughter, tinged with sarcasm, came through.

Chen Yan did not speak.

Jiang Yuan.

Is a person he finds very difficult to see through.

Unlike the indifference and hostility of Yu Changsheng, Jiang Yuan's emotions are very vague.

During the Heavenly Hammer Boxing Tournament, Chen Yan sensed Jiang Yuan's inexplicable hostility and probing.

But just now, he sensed the other party's approval and excitement.

However, all these emotional perceptions were based on the fact that Chen Yan is the Master of Will and possesses the Word Realm.

From the outside, Jiang Yuan is also a very distinct egoist.

Cooperating with such a person requires caution, but in any case, it is much better than cooperating with He Youtong.

"Tell me the information you obtained," Chen Yan said.

"Come over, I'll send you my location."

"Fine," Jiang Yuan said.

The next instant.

Chen Yan waved one hand, and a ball of light flew from his hand, blasting into the high heavens.

Boom—!

A massive golden light exploded.

Chen Yan sat cross-legged, waiting quietly.

Before long, Jiang Yuan arrived; he scrutinized Chen Yan for a moment, then revealed a smile:

"You are quite bold, daring to meet with me in private.

Some in the Aristocratic Family Alliance are still urging me to kill you."

Chen Yan's expression did not change, and he just stared at Jiang Yuan like this.

Jiang Yuan's brows lifted slightly; Chen Yan was very confident.

"Of course, you are my teammate, how could I harm you?" He said, his smile fading:

"Let's talk about it; you had me ask the villagers 'who was the one who discovered the honey,' so you must have been asking what the 'honey' is."

Chen Yan nodded:

"The answer I received was 'Xia Clan Dragon Blood'."

Jiang Yuan frowned:

"Does 'honey' refer to this so-called 'Dragon Blood'?"

Chen Yan nodded.

Jiang Yuan was suspicious:

"Are you not lying to me?

Do you know what Dragon Blood is?

The blood of a True Dragon; the energy contained within a single drop could easily burst the physical body of a Fifth-Rank martial artist.

If Zhan Tu Village obtained Dragon Blood, how could they be unable to defeat an Ancient God Beast?"

Chen Yan's brows lifted slightly:

"What Ancient God Beast?"

Jiang Yuan's eyes flickered, and he said:

"I am only guessing.

In the first story, the mother white bear's soul ascended to heaven, and the rabbit learned telekinesis.

This white bear refers to the Dream Ancient God Beast."

Chen Yan's gaze trembled; he had heard this name once again.

Moreover, under the perception of the Word Realm, Jiang Yuan was not lying, or rather, Jiang Yuan himself believed his deduction was correct.

"The past life of the Dream Ancient God Beast was a powerful telekinetic martial artist, who was later transformed by malice.

It was then suppressed by Lu Xunyang and divided into three parts.

One was suppressed in the Dream Abyss, one was handed to Shen Yiwei and later lost by Shen Yiwei, and the other was suppressed in Wushi City."

Jiang Yuan continued:

"Legend has it that the Dream Ancient God Beast nurtured two powerful Ancient God Beasts; one is called Fei Yi and is still suppressed within the Dream Abyss.

The other escaped, which is an Array-Condensing Ancient God Beast, possessing a pair of green eyes.

I heard that this green-eyed Ancient God Beast bred other Ancient God Beasts with the remaining Ancient God Beasts."

Chen Yan's pupils constricted slightly.

The green-eyed Ancient God Beast.

The green-eyed Ancient God Beast he had slain at the Chu Family base was the son of the Goat Ancient God Beast.

And the father of the green-eyed Ancient God Beast might be the son of this Dream Ancient God Beast in the Dream Abyss.

Round and round he went; Chen Yan discovered he was actually chasing down someone else's family tree to kill them.

Substituting into the story of the rabbit and the white bear.

The first story.

The Dream Ancient God Beast's soul ascending to heaven—does that represent the death of the Dream Ancient God Beast's physical body, with its soul going to some place in the Dream Abyss?

Through this point, the people of Zhan Tu Village saw the possibility of practicing telekinesis themselves.

In the second story.

The son of the Dream Ancient God Beast, a certain Ancient God Beast existing in the College Entrance Examination Secret Realm—most likely the one that is Fei Yi—learned 【Youlan】 and became even more powerful.

The people of Zhan Tu Village discovered 【Youlan】 and began to learn it.

But even after learning 【Youlan】, they were still no match for that Ancient God Beast.

In the end, the Zhan Tu Village villagers who discovered 【Youlan】 were killed by the village chief.

Chen Yan pondered, looking at Jiang Yuan.

"How do you know all this?" Chen Yan frowned.

All the clues were not clear, yet Jiang Yuan spoke with such certainty.

Jiang Yuan's expression was calm:

"The Aristocratic Family Alliance has its own intelligence agency; naturally, I have learned a few things."

Chen Yan did not speak; Jiang Yuan was lying.

The other party was unwilling to say, and he would not ask.

He only asked:

"So, who is the rabbit that discovered the honey?"

Opposite him, Jiang Yuan just looked at Chen Yan like that, then suddenly smiled:

"I have told you so much, why are you still lying to me?

Daxia Dragon Blood, how is that possible?

I only know of Dragon Blood, but I do not know of Daxia Dragon Blood."

Chen Yan's brows furrowed slightly; Jiang Yuan was not easy to deceive.

"The honey is from Youlan," Chen Yan said.

Opposite him, Jiang Yuan's pupils constricted slightly, then he suddenly smiled:

"I believe you!"

Jiang Yuan looked at Chen Yan:

"The rabbit that discovered the honey is Xue Qi."

Chen Yan raised an eyebrow.

Sensing Jiang Yuan with the Realm of Words, the other party was not lying.

In an instant, it was as if an electric current flashed through Chen Yan's mind.

A great deal of information intertwined.

Suddenly, many things became clear.

No wonder.

No wonder when he was being hunted by Xue Qi before, Chen Yan felt an abnormality in his internal Qi and blood.

Xue Qi herself had studied 【Youlan】.

【Youlan】, like Chen Yan's 【Hidden Abyss】, is one of the Four Blood Arts of the Xia Clan, and they inherently possess an inexplicable connection.

It is just like that drop of blood Chen Xiyuan gave to Chen Yan.

Because the owner of the blood also studied the Four Blood Arts, when Chen Yan came into contact with that drop of blood,

there was also an abnormality within his body.

PS: Two chapters today.

I have some things to attend to.
