The Empress of Ten Reincarnations Just to Find Me

Next, Mingjie sighed with relief, and there was a hint of imperceptible warmth in his voice.

"It's okay. It's good that you have this intention. After all, you can't just be around me on this road to growth. You still have to keep moving forward and experience more people and things. I'm not going to disappear from now on. I just come out occasionally to get some fresh air. What are you afraid of? Just relax."

After hearing Ming Jie's words, Chen Han felt a sudden warmth in his heart, and he completely understood what Ming Jie meant. He nodded heavily, his eyes full of gratitude.

"Thank you for your understanding, Sister Jingzi. I'll take note of it. I will work harder to improve myself in the future and will never forget your kindness to me."

After a while, Chen Han and Ming Jie chatted casually for a while and gradually came to the end.

Ming Jie waved his hands, and a stream of energy accurately hit the snake skin that had been frozen tightly.

With a few crisp crackling sounds, the frozen snake skin instantly shattered into countless tiny ice crystal fragments. Under the guidance of the Nether Ring's energy, these fragments slowly began to recondense and fuse. Soon, with a flash of light, two radiant pills condensed into just the right amount.

At the moment the pill took shape, a powerful energy wave suddenly spread out, and the wave quickly spread in all directions like ripples.

The noise was quite loud. Even the snake demon outside the cave and Chen Yue, who was guarding Chen Han near the cave entrance, felt it clearly. They all looked into the depths of the cave in surprise, their eyes full of curiosity and confusion, wondering what was going on inside.

After Mingjie completed this series of actions, she was breathing slightly, and her small and illusory body seemed a little tired because of the strenuous operation.

She gently waved her hand, and steadily sucked the two radiant pills into her hand, then handed them to Chen Han and said:

"I'm so tired. I put a lot of effort into refining these two pills. I need to rest now. You should go out first and explain the situation to them, otherwise I won't be able to explain it clearly."

Chen Han quickly took the pill and carefully put it away. Looking at Ming Jie, who looked a little tired, he said with concern, "Okay, Sister Jingzi, you should have a good rest. Leave this to me. I'll go out and explain everything to them."

After saying that, he turned and walked out of the cave, and the Ming Ring also returned to the mirror.

Not long after, Chen Yue and the snake demon heard footsteps approaching from afar. It was Chen Han walking out from the depths of the cave.

Xiao Mengyue was sharp-eyed and saw it immediately. She quickly ran over, hugged Chen Han's legs tightly, and looked at him with a smile on her face.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yue hurried forward and asked with a worried look on his face:

"How is it? Have you hit a bottleneck in your cultivation? Blame it on me. I just remembered that the precious snake skin needs to be refined before it can be more effective. I didn't remind you in time..."

Before Chen Yue finished speaking, Chen Han smiled slightly, reached out and slowly took out a pill from his arms.

The pill was bright yellow in color, as if it had condensed countless essences of light, and on its surface, there were strands of blue frost hanging, making it obvious that it was an extraordinary item.

Chen Yue was startled, her eyes widened, as if she had seen something extremely incredible, her face full of astonishment. She couldn't help but blurt out.

"You can make pills? Wait... there's not even a furnace here, how did you manage to make this pill? And look at the quality of this pill, the color..."

Chen Han, however, just waved his hand, pretending to be profound, and said nonchalantly, "Hey, just take it if I give it to you. Don't ask so many questions. Do ordinary people know the masters in this world? Well, I don't have time to talk to you anymore. I have to go back and continue my retreat."

After saying that, Chen Han turned around hurriedly without waiting for Chen Yue to react, and walked quickly towards the depths of the cave. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared, leaving Chen Yue holding the magical pill, standing there with a confused look on his face, full of questions but not knowing where to ask.

But Chen Yue still felt warm inside. She hadn't intended to compete with the other party for the snake skin, but she didn't expect the other party to be willing to share it with her. She had not felt this way for a long time since she had been treated as an alien by the royal family since she was a child.

She also trusted the other party very much, so she swallowed the pill without hesitation and began to refine it.

At this time, Chen Han hurried back to the depths of the cave and quickly took out the three precious items, namely the elixir, spiritual liquid, and Taoist flower he had just obtained.

This was the crucial moment for his breakthrough. Chen Han's expression hardened, his eyes revealing an incomparable determination. The unfortunate scenes he had experienced in the past flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.

The images of his embarrassing escape when being chased and the powerlessness he felt in the face of danger, all of these made him feel a strong sense of unwillingness and determination.

"This time, I must succeed in breaking through and never let myself fall into such a passive situation again!" Chen Han swore secretly in his heart.

Then, without any hesitation, he swallowed the pill containing powerful medicinal power in one gulp.

It didn't take long for the medicinal power of the pill to take effect. He felt his body being transformed by the medicinal power, and his strength became more and more solid...

Nine thousand five hundred kilograms... nine thousand six... nine thousand eight... nine thousand nine...

Just a little bit more…

Chen Han swallowed the spiritual liquid directly without giving it time to soak his body. In an instant, a surge of energy surged throughout his body.

Why is it so difficult when it’s just a little bit away?

Next, the medicinal power of the elixir and the spiritual fluid continuously collided and blended within Chen Han's body. As the medicinal power raged, Chen Han felt as if his body had been swept into a fierce storm. Waves of discomfort washed over him, as if every inch of his skin and every bone were being assaulted by the surging medicinal power.

However, even as his body was suffering, his physical strength began to rise at an astonishing rate. The previously stagnant data seemed to be injected with powerful momentum and continued to climb upwards.

Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-five... ninety-six... ten thousand! He counted silently in his mind.

"It's done!" he said excitedly.

Just when the strength of the physical body reached ten thousand pounds, the Holy Vine Lingyang Body seemed to be fed back, and the wood-attribute energy instantly burst out.

But at this time, Chen Han had a hint of doubt in his heart. Could it be that the ultimate physical strength of the Yuanhai realm is really only ten thousand pounds?

Then, a surge of stubbornness surged within Chen Han. Having reached this point, he was unwilling to remain at a physical strength of 10,000 jin. So, he began to climb with all his might, mobilizing every ounce of strength in his body, attempting to break through the barrier that seemed to have reached its limit.

He closed his eyes tightly, concentrating all his energy on increasing his physical strength. However, no matter how hard he tried, no matter how he tried to stimulate his potential, his physical strength seemed to be locked tightly by an invisible shackle, unable to increase even a single pound.

"How could this happen? I don't believe it!"

Next, Chen Han gritted his teeth, a look of determination flashing in his eyes. With a sudden wave of his hand, he pulled out all the remaining herbs from his storage bag. These herbs had been collected with great difficulty, but now he couldn't care less.

"Sacrifice the Holy Vine Lingyang Body to me!" Chen Han shouted loudly, and a strange wave emanated in an instant.

The herbs that were taken out seemed to have heard Chen Han's command and responded instantly.

A faint light began to flicker around them, and the energy contained in that light began to flow slowly. Then, like trickles of water gathering into rivers, they all rushed into Chen Han's body, actively offering all the energy they contained to Chen Han without reservation.

As the Yuanli was continuously donated, these herbs themselves gradually lost their vitality. The originally fresh and green leaves began to turn yellow, and the originally plump roots gradually shriveled and finally withered on the ground, as if they had completed their mission.

At this moment, Ming Jie, who was resting in the mirror, was suddenly startled. She noticed the unusual movement from Chen Han's side. The mirror trembled slightly a few times, and Ming Jie's figure flashed out from it.

"What the hell are you doing?" Ming Jie asked loudly, her voice full of anxiety and worry. At this moment, Chen Han's energy surged throughout his body, and the herbs continued to wither. The situation looked quite ominous.

However, Chen Han was now fully focused on using the herbal energy to push his body to its limits, and had no time to respond to the call of the Dark Ring.

"Damn it, it's still not enough, too little...Nine Apertures Exquisite Technique!"

After Chen Han shouted, he instantly activated the Nine Apertures Exquisite Technique. A layer of light with nine colors shone around his body, and as the light flickered, it seemed as if a mysterious power was flowing.

Once the Nine Apertures Exquisite Art was unleashed, it began to absorb the surrounding energy like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey. Suddenly, even the lingering chill within the cave, already lingering from the previous elixir-refining operations, sensed the powerful suction and rushed towards Chen Han, being quickly sucked into the energy vortex created by the Nine Apertures Exquisite Art.
