Chapter 5: Innate Physique: Eternal Boundless Body
The founder of the Starry Abyss Sect, Chu Xingming, was a Heavenly Origin powerhouse.
This realm was considered to be the pinnacle within the Mysterious Truth Continent.
"A Level 1 Mall can exchange for Heavenly Origin Realm treasures!"
"Wouldn't it be possible to exchange for higher realm treasures after upgrading!"
"Hiss, I thought the Heavenly Origin Realm was already very impressive, but now it seems that it's actually classified within Level 1 by the System!"
"Just how terrifying is this Immortal Martial World? Just how many unimaginably powerful realms are there above the Heavenly Origin Realm!?"
Jiang Chen couldn't help but look up at the sky as he contemplated this.
He felt even more acutely the vastness and power of the Immortal Martial World, and also recognized his own insignificance.
"To be a villain in such a world... Ah, this is so ridiculously absurd..."
Jiang Chen took a deep breath, and then glanced at the endless variety of treasures in the system panel. The sense of urgency in his heart slightly subsided.
Soon after, he turned his attention to the very center of the System Mall panel, where there was an exquisite wooden box none other than the Level 1 Mall Gift Pack!
"System!"
"Claim Level 1 Mall Gift Pack!"
Jiang Chen's eyes sparkled with excitement as he mentally gave the system a command.
[Ding! You have obtained a Level 1 Mall Gift Pack. Do you want to open it?]
"Open!"
[Ding! You have obtained the Wind Void Step Manual*1, the Ten-Turn Harmonious Spirit Pill*1, the Moondust Ring*1, and the Eternal Boundless Body*1!]
Following the system prompt,
A purple manual, a bottle of pills, a white finger ring, and a fist-sized, semi-illusory faceless figure appeared in front of Jiang Chen.
The manual and the bottle of pills radiated a brilliant light and emitted powerful fluctuations!
If it weren't for the protective array formation surrounding the attic, it would have undoubtedly attracted the attention of numerous people.
Through the information provided by the system,
Jiang Chen quickly grasped the purpose and value of each item.
[Wind Void Steps: A Heavenly Origin Realm movement martial skill. Once cultivated, it significantly increases movement speed, including flight speed when propelling oneself through the air.]
[Ten-Turn Harmonious Spirit Pill: A Heavenly Origin Realm pill of perfect quality, highly beneficial for breaking through minor realm bottlenecks within the Heavenly Origin Realm and lower realms.
It is also effective in breaking through major realm bottlenecks and can be used up to ten times after consumption.]
[Moondust Ring: A Heavenly Origin Realm storage artifact, possessing 10,000 cubic meters of storage space. The ring emits no unusual aura or fluctuations, appearing as a mundane object. The wearer can use it to conceal their cultivation and aura to a certain extent.]
[Eternal Boundless Body: A special innate physique with the ability to devour and fuse other innate physiques. Currently at the initial stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm, no innate physique has been devoured.]
"Amazing, all these treasures belong to the Heavenly Origin Realm!"
"If this were known, it would surely provoke a bloodbath!"
"Especially that Eternal Boundless Body, the value of this treasure is undoubtedly countless times greater than the entire Starry Abyss Sect. I fear that even the great powers above the Heavenly Origin Realm would risk their lives to compete for it upon seeing it!"
Jiang Chen gazed at the treasures before him, his eyes shimmering with excitement.
In this vast and endless Immortal Martial Continent, many individuals are born with exceptional innate talents, akin to having a head start in life!
Cultivation methods, medicinal pills, elixirs, and artifacts can all be acquired later in life, but an innate talent is a gift from heaven, nearly impossible to obtain after birth.
Though Jiang Chen himself possessed good qualifications, he lacked any special innate talents.
With the Eternal Boundless Body, however, he would be able to devour and assimilate other innate physiques for his own benefit.
When the time came to merge countless innate physiques into one, the resulting power would be unimaginable!
"This is incredible!"
"With these treasures, my chances of avoiding the tragic fate of a villain will be even greater!"
A surge of excitement rose in Jiang Chen's heart.
Nevertheless,
He didn't use the treasures immediately.
That was because he still had 1,100 Villain Value points remaining!
Jiang Chen's thoughts shifted, and his focus landed on the System Mall, scanning the various categories.
The Cultivation Methods section contained a wide array of cultivation techniques, martial skills manuals, five elements secret arts, temporary power boost secret arts, and even self-harming power boost secret arts... There was no shortage of options.
The prices for various methods in the Spiritual Awakening Realm hovered around several hundred Villain Value points, with stronger ones being more costly.
Those in the Mysterious Platform Realm required over a thousand Villain Value points.
The Heavenly Origin Realm methods were even more expensive, costing several thousand Villain Value points.
"Amazing!"
"These prices are unbelievably low!"
"Heavenly Origin Realm cultivation methods only cost two to three thousand Villain Value points, and I just gained eleven hundred points from Lin Feng in such a short time!"
"Just a few more instances like that, and I'll be able to exchange for a Heavenly Origin Realm Secret Technique!"
Jiang Chen observed the prices of the cultivation methods with a heart full of joy.
One must understand that Heavenly Origin Realm cultivation methods were extremely rare in the Mysterious Truth Continent.
Within the Starry Abyss Sect, these methods were only taught to core disciples.
After a moment of satisfaction, Jiang Chen's gaze shifted to the Medicinal Pills & Elixirs section.
As for cultivation methods...
He had already been cultivating the Starry Abyss Heavenly Scripture and Void Rainbow Sword Technique from the Starry Abyss Sect, both of which were Heavenly Origin Realm methods, so there was no urgency to exchange for others.
In the Medicinal Pills & Elixirs category,
There were cultivation pills, body-forging pills, breakthrough pills, temporary enhancement pills, poison pills... the list went on.
Their prices were lower than those of cultivation techniques and secret arts of the same level, with some costing only tens of Villain Value points.
For instance, the Clarity Awakening Pill that Jiang Chen used to provoke Li Kai and Liu Qing was only 50 Villain Value points per Upper Grade pill.
"I can exchange for some pills."
"Combined with the Ten-Turn Harmonious Spirit Pill, I'll definitely be able to advance to a higher realm quickly!"
As Jiang Chen considered the next two categories, he thought that a good tool should be used for its intended purpose. As for pills, he would make a decision later.
In no time at all,
Jiang Chen quickly skimmed through the next two categories, and the sheer number of treasures nearly made him drool with desire.
The Artifacts section contained various weapons, defensive gear, and auxiliary artifacts such as flying artifacts and storage artifacts.
The Other section was filled with all kinds of materials, creating an endless and dazzling list.
After careful consideration,
Jiang Chen decided to exchange for some cultivation pills.
After all, his own cultivation was the most fundamental and crucial aspect!
"System, exchange for ten Clear Mind Awakening Spirit Pills!"
Jiang Chen issued the command mentally.
The Clear Mind Awakening Spirit Pills were the best cultivation-type pills in the Spiritual Awakening Realm, and each one was worth 80 Villain Value points.
[Ding! Spending 800 Villain Value points, you have obtained Clear Mind Awakening Spirit Pill*10!]
Immediately,
Only 300 of the initial 1,100 Villain Value points remained, kept as a reserve.
"There's no need to take the medicinal pills just yet."
"It's better to fuse the Eternal Boundless Body first!"
Jiang Chen extended his hand and waved it, drawing the semi-illusory faceless figure into his grasp.
In a short while,
The half-illusory faceless figure absorbed Jiang Chen's Yuan Power and breath, transforming from a mere humanoid outline into Jiang Chen's likeness.
Without delay,
It merged into Jiang Chen's skin, flesh, and bones like water... causing a profound change to occur within Jiang Chen's body.
The process was incredibly smooth and swift.
In the blink of an eye,
Jiang Chen had become an Eternal Boundless Body!
After fusing with this Innate Physique, he felt a sense of emptiness in his core and an intense desire to consume something.
"I'm so eager to devour an innate physique!"
"I wonder if that Lin Feng guy has a special innate physique?"
"Ah, what's the point of pondering that? I'm not even sure I can finish him off. He's a protagonist who defies convention..."
As Jiang Chen found himself deep in contemplation, his mouth watered with a yearning so profound that it felt like he could cry, much to his disappointment.
