Become a Saint through Studying! Exposed by my little junior sister! Chapter 498 - 192: Rapid Retreat, Casting the Immortal Body,

Faith into divinity, this is how Chen Chang’an defined his current state!

If he desired, he could rely on this boundless power of faith to ascend to the peak of this realm, becoming a truly eternal existence, overlooking the nine heavens!

However, at this mont, he chose to give up everything in front of him.

Hum, hum, hum~!

In the next instant, Chen Chang’an’s energy started ebbing away like a receding tide, his realm began to slowly deteriorate.

From an indescribable state, he retreated back to the pinnacle of the Immortal Monarch realm.

And then he continued regressing.

"Bloody hell, kid, what the hell are you doing?!"

Witnessing this scene, Shen Xuzi’s eyes bulged out of his head.

He ran out from Chen Chang’an’s Inner World, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at Chen Chang’an, filled with rage!

How many people in this world could never reach this level in their entire lives, no matter how hard they tried?

But this boy was just giving it up so easily right now, how could this not make him furious?

This was even more unbearable than killing him!

Yet, Chen Chang’an didn’t heed Shen Xuzi’s ranting. His realm continued to decline.

Hum, hum, hum~!

At this mont, the power of faith that was originally attached to Chen Chang’an’s body was completely rejected.

Without the support of this faith energy, Chen Chang’an’s cultivation started to regress once again.

Peak of the Immortal Monarch...

Late stage of the Immortal Monarch...

Mid stage of the Immortal Monarch...

Early stage of the Immortal Monarch...

Until finally, he broke through the cultivation of the Immortal Monarch and returned to the original Ninth Stage!

"Bloody hell!"

Seeing this scene, Shen Xuzi really didn’t know what to say anymore.

"Huh?"

However, just as he was about to sigh and continue scolding Chen Chang’an, he noticed sothing wrong.

Because while Chen Chang’an’s realm had declined, his ntal state had not!

At this mont, he still possessed that terrifyingly profound ntal cultivation!

Just how strong was this ntal cultivation? It surpassed that of an Immortal Monarch!

That is to say, from now on, even the Immortal Monarchs could not intimidate Chen Chang’an when it ca to ntal suppression!

Another advantage of surpassing the ntal cultivation of the Immortal Monarch was that it allowed Chen Chang’an’s divine sense to ascend once again.

At this mont, it had reached the level of a mid-stage Immortal Monarch!

Divine sense of a mid-stage Immortal Monarch!

Such strength of divine sense, even in the Immortal Realm, was an unmatched existence, not to ntion in this Lower Realm.

You must know, even Yin Tianzi and Dao Taixu, the two strongest figures in the history of the Wuxiang Realm, had only just managed to reach the early stage of the Tenth Realm.

Moreover, they had not even undergone the baptism of immortal energy, so they could not be called Immortal Monarchs!

Hum, hum, hum~!

"Bloody hell, so this was the kid’s plan?!"

Just then, Shen Xuzi discovered sothing even more astonishing.

He noticed that Chen Chang’an’s body was trembling slightly. At the sa ti, wisps of immortal Dao energy suddenly appeared in the boundless void.

They rushed forward, constantly washing over Chen Chang’an’s body.

Under this cleansing, Chen Chang’an’s body quickly underwent a transformation as waves of Immortal Body energy spread out.

In no ti at all, the cleansing was complete.

At this mont, Chen Chang’an had transford.

His mortal body had beco an Immortal Body, free of dust, free of dirt!

His realm, from originally being a Great Heavenly Venerate, had automatically converted into that of a Ninth Heaven Xuanxian.

At this mont, Chen Chang’an had beco an Immortal.

"Kid, I know you’re probably thrilled about your transformation, but please tell seriously,"

"By giving up such a great Dao Fruit to gain just a little benefit, have you gone mad?" Shen Xuzi continued blathering.

He really didn’t understand Chen Chang’an’s actions.

For countless ages, so many cultivators battled and fought, wasn’t it all for that final transcendence into eternity?

Yet here was this boy, who had obviously stepped into it before anyone else, but decided to step out again, ending up without even an Immortal Monarch realm to his na. How could that not infuriate him?

Shen Xuzi only regretted that it wasn’t him who had reached that state!

"Mad? Perhaps."

Faced with Shen Xuzi’s words, Chen Chang’an rely smiled and shook his head, not bothering to explain.

These matters couldn’t be easily explained away.

Just a while ago, Chen Chang’an was indeed considering simply attaining Dao in that way.

But, he eventually didn’t.

Without exaggeration, he could have relied on this boundless power of faith at that mont to ascend to the peak of this realm, becoming a truly eternal existence, overlooking the nine heavens!

One could even say that Chen Chang’an had already reached that realm just now.

Just like Hou Tu, the great deity in the Primordial World,

Among the Six Daos, she transford into reincarnation, becoming a Dao on her own. Even the likes of Sanqing and other Saints had to respectfully address her as ’Empress’ when they saw her!

However, Chen Chang’an didn’t choose to do that.

Achieving Dao through faith was always just that, faith achieving Dao. Although Hou Tu did indeed beco a comparable existence to the Heavenly Dao in the end, she also lost everything she had.

Her freedom, her emotions!

In the cycle of reincarnation, she existed. Outside of it, she did not!

Yes, in so sense, Hou Tu was truly transcendent and eternal.

But if one is not oneself anymore, then what’s the point of it all?

Chen Chang’an didn’t want to end up like Hou Tu.

On the contrary, treating this event of cultivation as an experience and choosing to retreat was not a bad decision at all.

At least, he not only gained a free opportunity to observe the world, but also advanced his divine sense to the mid-stage of Immortal Monarch and transford his body into an Immortal Body,

Such a large benefit, isn’t this good enough?
