After finishing all this, Chen Wen didn't linger and rushed back to his cultivation room.
"Good, just as expected of my son, Chen Badao," Chen Badao exclaimed, his large hand trembling with excitement.
Ye Chenyan gave Chen Badao a look. "Look at you showing off."
But it was clear that the smile on her face at this moment was as bright as it could be.
"He's my son, how can that be called showing off?" Chen Badao grumbled discontentedly.
Ye Chenyan glanced at Chen Badao. "Oh, so I was just being nosy then."
Cough.
Chen Badao coughed lightly before saying, "Actually, I was a little bit showing off."
Only then did Ye Chenyan retract her not-so-kind gaze.
This... was the family hierarchy.
Chen Badao couldn't help but exhale a breath of turbid air.
Meanwhile, after Chen Wen returned to his room.
His realm had stabilized.
He had broken through from the First Layer Yin-Yang Realm to the Tenth Layer Yin-Yang Realm.
In addition to this, his first sequence shackle had been unlocked.
The absolute talent he obtained this time was called Absolute Combat Power.
This talent could infinitely increase one's combat power until the body collapses.
Just now, he had used this Absolute Combat Power to resist the Heavenly Tribulation at the Tenth Layer Yin-Yang Realm.
But undoubtedly, the limits of his body could still support him in breaking through the combat power barrier further.
It was just unnecessary, as too much was as bad as too little.
"How about it? This Absolute Talent isn't worse than the Absolute Spark, is it?" Xian Hongshao asked.
"They each have their own strengths," Chen Wen said repeatedly.
From this moment on, he could finally be considered capable of establishing a firm foothold in this cruel fantasy world.
As a seasoned fan of fantasy novels, he knew this very well.
While background support was important, the most crucial thing was having sufficient personal strength.
Only then could you truly have everything under control.
"The Absolute Talents in the future will only get stronger."
Speaking of which, Xian Hongshao changed the subject. "But let me say this upfront, don't think you've gotten a bargain this time and become complacent."
"Unlocking the subsequent shackles will only become more difficult, but correspondingly, the benefits you gain will also be higher."
"Especially the hidden benefits that the Chaos Sequence Body itself carries are far beyond what Absolute Talents can compare to."
"You need to have a long-term perspective and not pick up sesame seeds only to lose watermelons."
"Understood," Chen Wen nodded heavily.
He could naturally understand Xian Hongshao's reminder.
The true power of the Chaos Sequence Body lay in the physique itself, not the Absolute Talents it carried.
Whether these so-called talents could be effective, and how effective they could be, depended on the degree of development of the physique.
"By the way, Sister Shaozi, why do I feel like even Heavenly Mandate luck of the same tier has different amounts of power?"
"Does the strength of the Nirvana Liquid refined depend on the cultivation level of that Son of Destiny?"
Chen Wen thought for a moment before asking his question.
"Yes, the cultivation and foundation of the Son of Destiny are different, and the Nirvana Liquid refined will also be different."
"However, this is only comparable within the same tier. Nirvana Liquid refined from higher-tier Destiny Souls will always be stronger than that from lower-tier ones."
"And the higher the tier, the greater the difference between the two, to the point where it cannot be measured in multiples."
Xian Hongshao replied.
"So it really is like that."
Chen Wen sighed helplessly.
It was just that high-tier Heavenly Mandates were too rare.
If he had a few more high-level Heavenly Mandates, he was confident he could upgrade to a higher realm.
Perhaps noticing Chen Wen's thoughts, Xian Hongshao warned again, "Nirvana Liquid has no side effects and no bottleneck for improvement."
"But don't forget a fundamental issue: your personal cultivation has a bottleneck."
"Just be more grounded and don't think about irrelevant things."
"Only when your Chaos Sequence Body is fully developed will you truly have no realm bottleneck."
"Understood."
Chen Wen nodded, then focused his attention on the random reward draw.
This was a draw opportunity he'd earned from his first time smelting a Son of Destiny.
Draw!
As Chen Wen silently commanded, the random draw activated.
A few moments later, a series of prompts sounded.
[Congratulations on completing your first draw, you have obtained one King Grade Formation: Nine Extremes King Suppression Formation Trial Card, capable of killing all cultivators at the Heavenly King Realm and below.]
[Note: This formation is a one-time consumable, with no activation limits.]
Holy crap, a King Grade Formation on the first draw?
Lucky me, lucky me.
What he lacked most right now was precisely this kind of ultimate trump card.
Even though it was a one-time consumable, its heaven-defying aspect was its lack of limits.
It was like having an Emperor Artifact placed before him right now, available for him to use.
Never mind whether he could even use it properly.
Even if he could barely use it, he wouldn't be able to unleash its true power.
So, if you really thought about it, this formation was far more practical.
As for his sister's Red Lotus Prison Suppressing Spear, that was an exception.
Firstly, it had Chen Hongmian's permission.
Secondly, the Spear Spirit had recognized him.
Although he didn't know why, that was the reality.
Finally, the fact that he could unleash such power was also thanks to its autonomous enhancement.
Phew.
This feels great.
If only he had another hundred of these, it would feel even better.
Chen Wen let out a long breath, an undisguised smile on his face.
Let me see what the Orange Destiny Treasure Chest is.
Chen Wen opened his hand.
A piece of information flooded his mind.
[Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique, Saint Grade Sword Technique, can be continuously upgraded, a sword technique that integrates speed and power. At its peak, it can cleave the heavens with a single strike.]
This sword technique is amazing.
Chen Wen's eyes lit up again.
Saint Grade sword techniques didn't have a high starting point, but they were suitable for his current stage.
The most valuable part was that it could be continuously upgraded, making it possible to reach Emperor Grade in the end.
This was a huge profit.
Chu Youwei, oh Chu Youwei, you finally served a purpose, and it wasn't in vain that I personally sent you to your demise.
However, it was time to go out now. My parents must be waiting anxiously.
With that thought, Chen Wen got up and opened the door.
His vision was met by four figures guarding the doorway.
Seeing this, Chen Wen couldn't help but smile.
This is family, isn't it?
No matter how long they waited, they wouldn't stray far.
At the same time, Chen Badao and the others looked at Chen Wen in unison.
Nine minor realms in a row?
And without any sense of instability in his cultivation?
What kind of monster is this?
Chen Wudi gasped.
As someone who had been through it, he naturally knew how heaven-defying it was to ascend nine minor realms consecutively.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as impossible.
Chen Hongmian was also stunned, or rather, shocked.
"Haha, he truly is the son of Ye Chenyan."
Ye Chenyan let out a soft chuckle, looking at Chen Wen with immense pride.
"Hey, no fair. Why is it okay when you say it, but I'm showing off when I do?" Chen Badao felt utterly speechless.
But despite his feelings, he didn't dare to question her.
"I'm still far behind my older brother and sister," Chen Wen said with a smile.
"Those two?" Ye Chenyan shook her head. "Let's not even mention them."
Chen Hongmian and Chen Wudi were also dumbfounded. What do you mean, 'let's not mention them'? Are we really that pathetic?
"Mom, if you're going to say that, I have something to say to you," Chen Hongmian sidled up, looking ready to argue.
"Get lost, I can't stand looking at you," Ye Chenyan pushed Chen Hongmian's face away.
Ouch!
Look at my fiery temper.
Chen Hongmian felt an urge to roll up her sleeves.
Chen Wen immediately said, "Sis, this is your spear."
Chen Hongmian instinctively took it. "Right, how did you connect with it mentally?"
Chen Wudi also looked over, still bothered by this.
"I just held it and we connected," Chen Wen replied truthfully.
"That's it?" Before Chen Hongmian could say anything, Chen Wudi interjected.
"Yeah, that's it. Is there a problem?" Chen Wen countered.
"No problem, it's great, really great," Chen Wudi said with a stiff smile.
Hoo.
That felt good.
Chen Hongmian let out a long sigh of relief.
Critical hit achieved.
Someone else is even more hurt than I am.
"Alright, my dad and the others are still waiting for Xiao Wen."
Seeing that the playful banter had gone on long enough, Chen Badao finally spoke.
Grandpa is waiting for me?
Chen Wen's whole body trembled, and his heart couldn't help but race.
