Chapter 1641: Hidden Problems
Jian Chen carefully checked through his body several times and missed no corner. In the end, he finally discovered something different with his soul. A red speck of light had appeared in his soul.
The blood-red light was very dim, but it had already silently fused into his soul, making it impossible for him to remove it. It would have been exceedingly difficult for him to discover it if he did not look closely.
Jian Chen did not feel any sense of threat from the red light. It had fused with his soul silently, without raising his attention at all. It did not bring him any discomfort either.
"Looks like you're the troublemaker," a cold light flickered through Jian Chen's eyes, and his face became extremely sunken. When he recalled all the moments of his eighteen years of secluded cultivation, he understood very soon that he did not completely refine the evil presence within the blood's power. Although the power turned into Chaotic Force in the end, the evil presence that he had not completely refined entered his soul silently.
"This speck of light red filled with negative emotions shouldn't have been enough for my chaotic neidan to crack, even though it can influence my mind at certain times. Looks like there are some other flaws in my chaotic neidan. In the end, it's all because my strength is too weak. If my Chaotic Body was at the ninth layer or even the tenth layer when I refined the cloud, I probably wouldn't have come across these problems," Jian Chen thought. A smear of determination appeared in his eyes and with a thought, the two broken strands of Primordial Godsilk appeared from his wrist.
"I need to deal with the hidden problems in my soul immediately, or there'll be unthinkable consequences if my consciousness becomes affected in the future. The red light in my soul originated from the power of the crisis, so the power of the Primordial Godsilk would be the most effective in destroying it," thought Jian Chen. With a thought, the two broken strands turned into a golden streak of light and disappeared into his forehead, entering his sea of consciousness.
He had not refined the Primordial Godsilk in the past, which was why Jian Chen could only store it in his Space Ring for so long. However, now that he had refined the Primordial Godsilk while it was fending off the crisis of the world, not only could he hide the Primordial Godsilk in his body now, he could even send it into his sea of consciousness easily.
Although the Primordial Godsilk had basically run out of power, there was still a tiny sliver of it left. This time, Jian Chen used the last sliver without any hesitation at all in an attempt to destroy the red speck of light that had infiltrated his soul.
Fortunately, the Primordial Godsilk was completely under his control now, and its power had no offensive capabilities unless it was facing the crisis of the world. As a result, Jian Chen did not worry at all that its power would harm his soul.
But very soon, Jian Chen's heart sank even more. He discovered that the Primordial Godsilk completely failed to remove the speck of red light in his soul. It did not seem to pose any harm to it at all.
"Damn. This speck of red light comes from the power the crisis used, but during my refinement process, it has changed. This change has allowed it to become immune to the Primordial Godsilk. The Primordial Godsilk no longer poses any threat to it now," Jian Chen's face became extremely sunken. His happiness and joy from breaking through to the ninth layer had completely vanished.
He just could not imagine what would happen if he lost himself and began to massacre on the Tian Yuan Continent...
Jian Chen could not help but shiver, frightened to the point where he became covered in cold sweat. This time, he felt chills run down his spine as his entire soul tremored in fright. At the same time, the familiar faces of Shangguan Mu'er, Shangguan Aojian, You Yue, Huang Luan, Changyang Ba, Bi Yuntian, Chang Wuji, Dugu Feng, Qin Xiao, and so on all flashed through his head, causing him to become even paler.
