Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

Earlier, in order to escape the black hole, Chen Tian had forcibly absorbed a trace of the Origin Immortal Power from the golden liquid.

Although the powerful force ultimately allowed Chen Tian to escape, at the same time, the damage this force inflicted on Chen Tian's body was also immense.

Chen Tian examined his body and discovered that nine out of ten of his meridians were broken, and his bones were covered in fine cracks, as if they were about to fall apart.

It could be said that if he had escaped any later, then even if Chen Tian hadn't died inside the black hole, he would have been crushed by the immense power brought about by forcibly absorbing the Origin Immortal Power.

Either way, it would have been the worst possible outcome for Chen Tian.

Fortunately, Heaven never seals off all exits. Relying on Chen Tian's courage and daring, he ultimately managed to save his life, even if that life was already in tatters.

After examining the state of his body, Chen Tian abandoned all distracting thoughts and, with a flip of his hand, took out more than a dozen bottles of pills from his storage ring. Without even looking, Chen Tian swallowed all of these pills and slowly began to meditate and recuperate.

These pills were all spoils of war obtained from Daoist Nanxian, and even included two Immortal-grade pills. However, even so, for Chen Tian's injuries, the power of these pills was only a drop in the bucket, and they were quickly absorbed by Chen Tian. At this point, Chen Tian had only recovered about twenty percent.

Fortunately, the major injuries had been stabilized, and the remaining ailments were not to be feared. As long as he recuperated slowly and spent more time, he would be able to recover completely.

Thinking of this, Chen Tian's expression was calm. He took out several Profound-grade pills from his storage ring and swallowed them all in one gulp.

Immediately afterward, Chen Tian entered a selfless and egoless state of nothingness, rapidly repairing the injuries on his body.

… … … … … … … …

About two days later, Chen Tian woke up once, and with a wave of his hand, he retrieved the Flounder Eel and the Fire Dragon transformed from the Essence Earth Fire Vein, which had been guarding him.

Although these two demonic beasts could help Chen Tian deter others very well, at the same time, Chen Tian also needed to expend a lot of spiritual power to maintain them.

After two days of recuperation, Chen Tian's body had already recovered fifty percent and no longer needed these two demonic beasts to guard him, so he retrieved them in order to mobilize more spiritual power to repair his injuries.

Sure enough, after seeing Chen Tian retrieve the Flounder Eel and the Fire Dragon, the cultivators lingering nearby were somewhat surprised, but no one dared to step forward to invade Chen Tian. They simply watched from a distance.

They understood very well that the reason Chen Tian had retrieved these two demonic beasts must be because the injuries in his body had recovered to a point where he was capable of stopping any invasion. To provoke him at this time would be tantamount to seeking their own deaths.

Thinking of this, everyone glanced at Chen Tian with apprehension and then quietly waited for their companions to return.

… … … … … … … …

Several days passed, and more and more cultivators came to the vicinity of this vortex, gradually making it lively.

However, everyone who came here would intentionally or unintentionally glance at Chen Tian, who had been meditating all along.

They could naturally sense that Chen Tian's aura was very weak at this time, indicating that he had suffered very serious injuries.

Thinking of this, some of the cultivators who had entered this place later began to have designs on Chen Tian.

After all, this Demon Domain Ruins was isolated from the outside world. No matter what happened here, the outside world would never know.

Moreover, they had already discovered on the Ascension Platform that Chen Tian was a rogue cultivator, and there was no powerful sect to support him. Therefore, even if they killed him here, there would be no worries.

Although these people were still afraid of the terrifying methods that Chen Tian had displayed before, when they thought that Chen Tian was injured at this time and his strength was not as good as it was then, then naturally there was nothing to be afraid of.

It could be said that Chen Tian at this time was like a fat sheep in their eyes, constantly inducing their desire to 'kill and seize treasures'.

Finally, a middle-aged man who came in later could not resist this temptation and began to gradually approach Chen Tian.

This man was wearing a green robe, his face was extremely wretched, and his eyes were like those of a mouse, constantly flashing with cunning light. Just being swept by his gaze could make people feel disgusted.

The green-robed man first flew five zhang towards Chen Tian, wanting to test Chen Tian's reaction. But when he found that Chen Tian did not show any abnormality, he approached another ten zhang.

However, even so, Chen Tian was still sitting quietly on the gravel, closing his eyes, as if he was completely deaf and blind to everything around him.

Seeing this scene, the man couldn't help but get excited. He knew that Chen Tian must be extremely seriously injured, so he didn't notice him approaching.

And as a result, the man's courage became even greater, striding forward openly, as if he was not afraid of Chen Tian at all.

When the cultivators who had been here before saw this scene, although they did not speak, a trace of sarcasm flashed in their eyes.

They knew that although Chen Tian was seriously injured, he was still a Condensing Sea Realm cultivator, and this person was only at the Great Perfection of the Transformation Spring Realm. It was simply overestimating himself to try to harm Chen Tian with his cultivation.

However, none of them spoke, just quietly watching from the sidelines, with curiosity in their eyes.

The people in the cultivation world are indifferent, and they don't have much interaction with this person, so there is no need to remind him specifically. So, they just watched this good show quietly.

Besides, in fact, these people were also very curious. They wanted to see how Chen Tian's strength was now?

Once they confirmed that Chen Tian was already at the end of his rope, just barely supporting himself and unable to fight back, then they would also attack Chen Tian without mercy.

The cultivation world respects strength, and the strong will not sympathize with the weak, but will only torture and kill the weak in a more cruel way.

Moreover, they had long been coveting Chen Tian's Flounder Eel and the Fire Dragon transformed from the Essence Earth Fire Vein, knowing that these two demonic beasts were good treasures, and their hearts were itching, eager to take them for themselves.

So, when they determined that Chen Tian was really pretending to be indifferent at this time, but in fact he had already exhausted his energy, then they would definitely rush up and take a share of the pie.

Thinking like this, for a time, the attention of everyone present was focused on Chen Tian and the middle-aged man who was gradually approaching Chen Tian.

An invisible crisis was slowly approaching Chen Tian!
