Chapter 1308: Chapter 1308: Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects

Under the threat of Minghe Ancestor, Chen Nan had no choice but to find a way to dispel the black mist enveloping the stone platform, and at this moment, the black mist had completely changed form.

The dense black was like the deepest darkness, resembling both liquid and gas, forming a black sphere that enveloped the stone platform.

Chen Nan stood frozen in place, his mind blank, as he had no idea what was happening; the black sphere before him was not an array, nor a restriction, but more like a... living entity.

On the side, Minghe Ancestor suddenly stepped forward, chuckled twice, "Indeed, you are the key. I wonder what special thing you possess, boy."

He scrutinized Chen Nan from head to toe, his eyes filled with an indescribable disdain.

Chen Nan finally understood why Minghe Ancestor had planted a restriction in his body from the beginning; turns out he had anticipated this situation long ago.

He also did not understand why only he could open the secret realm, and at this moment, the thing outside the stone platform only reacted to him; he was merely a tool in Minghe Ancestor’s hands.

"I can’t open it." Chen Nan sighed slightly in his heart, lamenting that Nascent Soul Old Monsters were indeed not simple; even a casual move might contain deep meaning.

Minghe Ancestor chuckled, "You’ll definitely open it. Let me tell you what this thing is."

"This thing is called ’Erosion Sun’, a dark attribute heaven and earth spiritual object, the purest darkness between heaven and earth; you might consider it as the embodiment of the Heaven and Earth Laws."

Upon hearing this, Chen Nan’s heart jolted; the black sphere before him turned out to be a heaven and earth spiritual object? And a dark attribute one?

You must know that his Myriad Phenomena Golden Core hadn’t made progress for a long time, after all, besides Five Elements attribute heaven and earth spiritual objects, other attributes are quite rare; he only had additional wind, shadow, and thunder.

Moreover, according to Minghe Ancestor, heaven and earth spiritual objects are actually the embodiment of Heaven and Earth Laws, which suddenly sparked an astonishing conjecture within Chen Nan’s heart.

If this is true, when advancing to Nascent Soul Realm, wouldn’t he be able to directly comprehend Heaven and Earth Laws?

In this case, the advantage of Myriad Phenomena Golden Core would be immense.

Ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators can only comprehend one or two Heaven and Earth Laws, with the prerequisite being having the same attribute spirit root; for example, a cultivator with a Fire Spirit Root would find it easier to comprehend Fire Law after advancing to Nascent Soul.

The end point of a cultivator is determined from the beginning.

But the Myriad Phenomena Golden Core cultivated by Chen Nan can absorb heaven and earth spiritual objects and transform them into spirit roots; thus, the power of laws he can comprehend will far exceed that of ordinary cultivators!

He seemed to see a highway to the heavens beyond the Myriad Phenomena Golden Core!

Of course, cultivating Myriad Phenomena Golden Core also has one drawback, which is the need for double the cultivation resources due to the additional spirit root attribute, and not many people can afford such a costly price.

In an instant, Chen Nan’s mind raced, but Minghe Ancestor didn’t pay attention to his distraction and continued, "You possess Heaven-Burning Flame, so you presumably have experience in refining heaven and earth spiritual objects; thus, this thing is entrusted to you."

Chen Nan’s heart tightened; since he saw Minghe Ancestor outside the secret realm, he hadn’t met him until entering the secret realm, so how did Minghe Ancestor know he possessed Heaven-Burning Flame?

Instantaneously, he thought of the restriction left on him by Minghe Ancestor, indicating that his every move had been monitored by Minghe Ancestor all along.

"This old schemer." Chen Nan cursed inwardly but outwardly still pretended to be compliant as he nodded.

He stepped forward, reaching out to gently touch the ’Erosion Sun’. His touch felt icy, signifying the presence of the ’Erosion Sun’, yet he couldn’t grasp it.

Furthermore, he could sense the ’Erosion Sun’ gradually eroding him, seemingly intending to turn him into a part of the darkness as well, but due to a lack of control, the process was quite slow.

In essence, the ’Erosion Sun’ was a mass of pure darkness.

Chen Nan slowly closed his eyes, letting his mana flow through his meridians to his hand, then gently merging into the darkness, gradually refining the ’Erosion Sun’.

This process was destined to be extremely slow, and he noticed a resistance, clearly remnants of the previous owner’s faint divine sense within ’Erosion Sun’.

Opening his eyes to glance at Minghe Ancestor beside him, Chen Nan knew if he was too slow and annoyed Minghe Ancestor, his friends might be the ones suffering next.

Hence, he closed his eyes again, but this time, instead of refining the ’Erosion Sun’, he directly operated the ’Devouring Spirit Technique’ to slowly devour the ’Erosion Sun’.

This was much quicker than refining.

Others only saw the dense black gradually diminish, the black sphere continued to shrink, eventually unable to envelop the stone platform, transforming into darkness akin to liquid.

The item within the stone platform finally emerged clearly before everyone’s eyes.

It was a long wooden box, about three feet long, having weathered countless years yet still appearing intact, adorned with simple patterns.

No one knew what was inside the wooden box, but they all understood that something placed in the deepest part of the secret realm and protected layer upon layer must be quite extraordinary.

At this moment, Chen Nan wasn’t looking at the wooden box atop the stone platform; he was carefully sensing the ’Erosion Sun’ he had devoured. Through ’Devouring Spirit Technique’, the ’Erosion Sun’ gradually transformed into a dark attribute spirit root, merging into the Golden Core.

Within the Golden Core, a purely black leaf grew on the Jianmu.

At the moment the leaf sprouted, Chen Nan sensed a layer of shackles within his body being shattered, his body seemed like a bottomless pit crazily absorbing the surrounding nature’s spiritual energy.

Even Minghe Ancestor turned his head in astonishment at that moment.

Chen Nan knew this was because he absorbed the ’Erosion Sun’, grew a dark spirit root, causing his cultivation to break through the Fifth Level of Golden Core Realm.

Merely relying on the spiritual energy in the world could not satisfy his advancement requirements, so he ignored the presence of Minghe Ancestor, directly sat cross-legged, and began to absorb spirit stones from his storage bag.

For some unknown reason, Minghe Ancestor now seemed extremely patient, just standing there waiting for Chen Nan to finish advancing, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

He wasn’t sure how many geniuses he had seen, but a genius like Chen Nan was certainly a first for him—breaking one realm had caused quite a stir.

Spiritual energy flooded into Chen Nan’s body as if it was free, yet even so, he needed to continually absorb spirit stones to sustain the consumption of breaking through the realm.

Unknowingly, half an hour passed, and Chen Nan had absorbed over ten million spirit stones while the spiritual energy within a hundred miles around was completely depleted.

Finally, the fierce absorption suddenly halted, a tremendous aura soared to the sky.

Chen Nan closed his eyes for inner vision, saw the sea of mana gathering within the Golden Core, then slowly opened his eyes, his gaze as sharp as to make one afraid to look directly.

Golden Core Realm Fifth Layer, achieved!
