My gorgeous wife Chapter 2348 - 2316: The Greatest Challenge

Suan Tian once divined for Li Chen.

In terms of combat power, Suan Tian was certainly among the weakest in the Palm Realm.

However, when it came to calculations and deductions, unless one walked the same path of computation, even a Dao Saint was no match for him.

Thus, Suan Tian’s calculations were almost never wrong.

After Li Chen comprehended the Law of Cause and Effect, he also accessed this power of deduction.

Causal deduction itself is a formidable calculative ability.

Before the Black Qi invasion, others were unaware, but the Seven Realms Tome knew that at that time, Li Chen secretly divined for himself.

It was precisely that divination that made Li Chen resolute.

That divination consisted of only eight characters.

Life Pattern Corrected, Lonesome Star of Heavenly Slaughter.

...

"Even without resources, early-stage cultivation can be completed," Li Chen calmly said.

Vast seas turned into deep mountain ranges, likewise, the mountains were filled with many demon beasts and ferocious beasts.

Because of this, the Chen family spared no expense to build a hidden defensive barrier here, concealing themselves.

After leaving the Chen family’s barrier, Li Chen entered such a mountain range.

After some time of adaptation, Li Chen could speak again. Although his physical body was still somewhat stiff, he could at least move normally and barely handle some low-rank beasts.

"I didn’t expect, after so many years, to feel hungry again," Li Chen’s face wore an indescribable expression.

At this moment, a figure with a completely black body, surrounded by electric light, appeared not far away.

This was a ferocious beast, a Lightning Black Panther, with cultivation at the level of someone who has just entered the Earth Level, a formidable existence for many cultivators on this continent.

Obviously, it had regarded Li Chen as prey.

This prey had unsteady steps and clumsy movements, clearly unable to possess great strength, making it the perfect prey for the Lightning Black Panther.

"Roar!"

Its body suddenly shifted sideways into Li Chen’s blind spot, then pounced towards Li Chen with unmatched force.

At that moment, as if he had eyes on the back of his head, Li Chen slightly turned his head and gave the panther a glance.

"Bang!"

The panther instantly crashed to the ground, bleeding from its seven orifices, as dead as can be.

Its soul had been shattered by that single glance.

"Was it necessary to shatter even the soul after killing it?" the Seven Realms Tome hesitantly asked.

"You care about a beast that wanted my life?" Li Chen’s voice slightly raised, "If you don’t like it, you can leave. I won’t stop you. Even if you go, I still have the Red Moon accompanying me."

"You..." The Seven Realms Tome’s voice choked, faintly containing anger.

But soon, it subsided again.

With a soft sigh, the Seven Realms Tome disappeared.

These eighty million years, Li Chen himself knew how much suffering he had endured.

Precisely because he understood, he could not harbor anger towards Li Chen.

Forcing a powerhouse comparable to a Dao Saint into madness, awakening them, driving them mad again, and awakening them countless times.

Who else besides him could endure it?

Moreover, after seeing his previous attitude towards Chen Qi, the Seven Realms Tome faintly understood Li Chen’s thoughts.

At night, Li Chen roasted the panther he hunted during the day, sitting beside him was the Red Moon.

"Red Moon, I now have no cultivation. I cannot communicate with my internal cosmos nor have the strength to open it. Do you have any means to help me open my internal cosmos?" Li Chen asked.

"Master, why do you need to open your internal cosmos?" Red Moon paused, then asked.

"That is my cosmos," Li Chen calmly said, "There’s a mess of things inside, and I want to throw all that chaos out. My personal space has a bunch of other beings living in it, what sense does that make?"

In Li Chen’s sea of consciousness, the Seven Realms Tome lightly trembled and then fell silent again.

"Master," Red Moon shook her head, "as you’ve said, it’s your internal cosmos. Even though I’m your primal weapon, I can’t act on your behalf to open it for you. This matter requires you to gradually accumulate cultivation and open it yourself."

"I kind of guessed that," Li Chen nodded, saying no more, quietly tearing at the panther meat in his hand.

"Though my current physical body is like an ordinary human, half of it is occupied by Black Qi, so the cultivation technique can’t function completely," Li Chen said, "Without being able to complete the first Zhou Tian of the cultivation technique, I can’t accumulate the first trace of energy, let alone anything beyond."

"Now, I must find a way to inject the first trace of energy into the body."

Red Moon hesitated, "Master, perhaps I could..."

"No need," Li Chen waved his hand, "The Black Qi is strange. Last time you almost completely lost your spiritual intelligence. You haven’t recovered since. If the Black Qi invades again, I’m afraid you might truly perish."

"Let me figure out the first trace of energy on my own."

Red Moon was also in a poor state now, entirely sealed with a thin layer of Black Qi circulating within the Red Moon Blade itself. Though still incredibly sharp and almost able to cut through anything with that faint Black Qi, it couldn’t utilize even a fraction of its inherent power.

Meaning, he had lost the ability to fight independently.

Moreover, Li Chen was merely an ordinary person without a trace of cultivation.

"Made it out."

After walking for nearly half a month, Li Chen finally emerged from the mountain range.

Even with a godly soul vast beyond measure, he was just an ordinary person without any cultivation, not even having a cultivated physical body, without stamina to walk out of the forest in one go.

"Who’s there?"

Not far out, a stern shout came from the forest.

Soon, a crowd of evidently skilled cultivators surrounded Li Chen.

In the extremely perilous Wind Chasing Mountain Range, filled with monstrous beasts, this white-haired youth without any trace of cultivation appearing here was certainly odd.

"Just passing by," Li Chen calmly stated.

"Passing by?" They heard Li Chen’s words, and their faces couldn’t help but twitch.

A person without any cultivation passing through the Wind Chasing Mountain Range and coming out unscathed?

Are you an idiot, or do you think we are?

"Passing from the Black and White Chen Household, are you?" one person suddenly asked.

The few others, hearing this, were moved.

Indeed, they had stayed around here for years upon hearing that the Black and White Chen Household might reside here.

As the wall falls, everyone pushes. The Black and White Empire’s Chen family fell, naturally attracting everyone to take a share.

Gazing at the white-haired youth’s black and white robe, their eyes grew brighter.
