1147 Internal Breath, Endless Life
A dense bloody smell and a strange taste that he did not know how to describe instantly filled Chu Nan’s mouth. The pungent smell immediately made him feel intense nausea and he almost spat out the Three-Ringed Mane Deer core in his mouth.
Fortunately, he instantly recalled that Hasol had mentioned that the value of this Three-Ringed Mane Deer was at least 500,000 federation coins. Therefore, he desperately endured it and rejected it twice with all his might before swallowing it.
An even stronger bloody taste and strange taste slid down his mouth and into his stomach along his esophagus.
Chu Nan frowned and focused on the situation in his stomach, trying his best to ignore the strange feeling in his mouth.
A moment later, he clearly felt the core cut open in his stomach. A warm and cold feeling seeped out of his stomach. Soon, he felt a fulfilling feeling after being full, and it was even a little swollen.
Chu Nan did not dare to delay and immediately circulated his Internal Breath to circulate around his appetite.
The warm aura emitted by the Three-Ringed Mane Deer’s core in his stomach immediately seemed to have been guided by something and began to seep out of Chu Nan’s stomach bit by bit before fusing with the surrounding Internal Breath without any obstruction.
The core of a Three-Ringed Mane Deer did not contain much energy. Before long, it was completely absorbed by Chu Nan’s Internal Breath, causing his stomach to return to normal and he no longer felt full.
Chu Nan frowned and turned the Internal Breath that had absorbed the energy of the Three-Ringed Mane Deer’s core around his meridians to confirm that his calculations were not wrong.
After absorbing the energy in the core, although it clearly strengthened his Internal Breath, it also made it a little more impure, causing Chu Nan’s control of it to clearly decrease and his circulation was clearly not as smooth as before.
From this point, it was not beneficial to Chu Nan.
Of course, to those low-level martial artists, if they used it well and could fully absorb the energy in the core of the Three-Ringed Mane Deer, it could indeed make their Internal Breath stronger and increase their strength immediately.
Moreover, not only could the energy hidden in the core help his Internal Breath increase, it also had a portion of the characteristics of letting the Internal Breath Emperor and spatial energy transform each other. If he had a little comprehension or was under the guidance of a master, it could help Internal Breath martial artists more easily understand the existence of spatial energy and build a certain foundation to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate.
Chu Nan naturally did not care about the increase in his Internal Breath after swallowing this core. The reason why he really cared and agreed to hunt the Three-Ringed Mane Deer with Hasol was mainly because of the two different energy conversion states in the core.
The energy that was close to the Internal Breath fluctuation did not seem to be a problem at the moment. The energy in the core could easily fuse with his Internal Breath, which was enough to prove that the energy pattern was really extremely similar to the Internal Breath cultivated by a martial artist.
Then, this caused a problem. Could it be that the Three-Ringed Mane Deer had also cultivated Internal Breath and could still store it in its core?
Or could it be that the core of the Three-Ringed Mane Deer was actually equivalent to the star cloud condensed by a human Heaven Control Martial Artist?
When he thought of this, Chu Nan’s heart stirred. He took out two more cores from the bag and threw one into his mouth. He held one in his hand and urged his Internal Breath to divide into two. One surrounded his stomach and the other entered the core in his hand.
At the same time, he felt the state of his Internal Breath slowly seeping out of the core and the state of energy eruption after being stimulated by his Internal Breath outside. Chu Nan immediately acutely sensed a subtle difference.
However, the cores of the Three-Ringed Mane Deer were too small. The energy contained in them was too little. The two cores only lasted for less than a minute before their energy was exhausted.
Chu Nan could only take out two more at the same time and throw them into his mouth and hand.
The core energy light in his palm erupted again and again, and countless cores in his stomach were digested.
As the sky gradually darkened, the leather bag containing the core at Chu Nan’s waist gradually deflated, but his stomach bulged bit by bit because it was filled with too many cores.
Suddenly, Chu Nan’s eyes suddenly opened. His eyes flickered and an undisguised joy flashed across his face.
“I understand!”
He threw away the core that had already been stimulated by the energy in his hand and sat cross-legged again. He looked down and focused all his attention on his dantian.
A trace of Internal Breath flowed out of his dantian and slowly circulated around the meridians in Chu Nan’s body before returning to his dantian. He completed a circulation and became slightly stronger than when he left his dantian.
Chu Nan circulated the Nine Revolutions Cultivation Technique and completed the most basic first level of cultivation.
Then, Chu Nan did not control this trace of Internal Breath to leave his dantian like usual and began to cultivate the second cycle of the Second Revolution. Instead, he controlled this trace of Internal Breath to circle in his dantian.
As he circled around, Chu Nan controlled this trace of Internal Breath to carefully circle around the four star clouds that had successfully condensed in his dantian. However, he did not transform it into spatial energy through these four star clouds and only transformed a portion of it through these four star clouds.
Therefore, although this trace of Internal Breath was still weak, it already contained the original Internal Breath and the spatial energy of four different structures. It wrapped around each other and was indistinguishable.
Only then did Chu Nan control this trace of Internal Breath to leave his dantian and circulate it in his meridians at an extremely slow speed.
Due to the slow speed, when he circulated it in his meridians for a cycle, the original Internal Breath had already perfectly fused with the spatial energy of these four different attributes, just like the energy Chu Nan had sensed from the Three-Ringed Mane Deer’s core.
After a long time, this trace of Internal Breath returned to his dantian.
Then, Chu Nan controlled it to circle in his dantian again and repeated his actions. Then, it slowly circulated in his meridians.
He repeated the action again and again. Every time he repeated it, Chu Nan would mobilize more Internal Breath.
After repeating this dozen of times, Chu Nan had already fully mobilized all his Internal Breath and repeatedly mobilized the four star clouds in his dantian. In the end, his Internal Breath filled all the meridians in his body and his dantian, but it had already perfectly mixed with four different attributes of spatial energy.
As his Internal Breath mixed with this spatial energy circulated and surged at high speed in his dantian, Chu Nan’s brain also circulated wildly at the same time and continuously made slight adjustments to his Internal Breath.
After an unknown period of time, Chu Nan suddenly felt that all the Internal Breath circulating in his dantian and meridians had finally perfectly fused with the four star clouds and all the spatial energy contained in his body.
He could still easily transform his Internal Breath into spatial energy through the star cloud, but at the same time, he could actually transform spatial energy into Internal Breath!
With a thought, the spatial energy in the outside world was guided into his body. It circulated in his meridians and entered his dantian before being guided into the star cloud.
The star cloud circulated and an Internal Breath appeared out of thin air.
Feeling this Internal Breath perfectly fuse into the original Internal Breath in his dantian, Chu Nan could not help but laugh.
“What Internal Breath? It’s actually the same thing! Hahaha…”
