Chapter 265: Too Strong, So Tired

"Chick, stay inside for a while. I need to sort out my thoughts." Seeing that Chick was fine, Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief. As for what had happened inside the Heaven and Earth Furnace, Lin Fan was quite puzzled. He had no idea what had occurred, yet he himself had changed. This needed a thorough examination.

First, his cultivation level hadn't changed much; he was still at the initial stage of Entering Divinity. This puzzled Lin Fan greatly. If his cultivation hadn't increased, how could a mere wave of his hand cause the void to shatter? That was truly baffling.

"Eh..." As Lin Fan looked inward, he noticed something different about the blood coursing through his body. He could clearly sense that his blood was constantly absorbing the true essence of heaven and earth. At the same time, each drop of blood seemed to contain a world, though that world was still hazy and gray, revealing nothing unusual.

At that moment, his pores opened, and a surge of true essence from heaven and earth poured in.

"Ding, congratulations, experience increased by ten thousand."

Lin Fan's expression changed instantly. He was almost scared to death. Gaining experience without fighting monsters or taking pills—this was simply impossible.

Even a Great Heavenly Realm expert had to absorb it with their main consciousness, but for him, there was no such requirement. Every second, his experience increased, just like an idle game—pretty impressive.

Lin Fan deeply admired this ability. From now on, his days would truly be prosperous.

At this moment, Lin Fan looked at his right hand. His right hand had become strange. When had it turned into something like a Qilin arm?

Just then, his arm suddenly flashed with a red light.

"Damn, it's that thing." Lin Fan was startled. How had the arm refined by the Heaven and Earth Furnace ended up on his right hand?

A bit nervous, Lin Fan quickly opened his status panel and checked. Finally, he found the problem.

"Eternal Arm: Origin unknown, eternally invincible, incomplete state."

"Eternal Arm?" Lin Fan was about to raise his right hand to stroke his chin but quickly put it down in fright. He didn't want to shatter his own chin by causing another void collapse.

The arm seemed sensible, knowing it couldn't defeat the young master, so it surrendered. However, the initial fusion was a bit uncomfortable. It seemed he needed to control the power.

At that moment, Lin Fan discovered another problem. His back felt a little itchy. He scratched it but didn't notice anything unusual.

But with the system, no demon or monster could escape the young master's keen eyes. He continued searching on the panel and soon found the issue.

"Heaven and Earth True Scripture: The first character between heaven and earth, containing supreme power, incomplete state."

...

What does that mean? Why is everything in an incomplete state? Even though the Heaven and Earth True Scripture is incomplete, it should at least be somewhat useful.

"Cock-a-doodle-doo..." At this moment, Chick, who was in the midst of nirvana, crowed again.

It was very unhappy that Lin Fan had left it aside and ignored it. Just now, Chick had risked its life to save him. How could he not help it get out?

"Chick, don't rush. Let me figure things out first," Lin Fan called out to the eggshell, then fell into thought again.

This so-called Heaven and Earth True Scripture must be very useful, but he hadn't discovered it yet. For now, the priority was to control his right hand.

Otherwise, if a slight lift caused heaven and earth to shatter, how could he get by?

Now, Lin Fan focused his mind, condensed his true essence, and slowly raised his right hand.

"Boom!"

Lin Fan frowned, unable to bear looking. He had only just raised it, and the void in front of him shattered again. If the void didn't have the ability to heal itself, this sky would have been completely destroyed by Lin Fan.

Then Lin Fan experimented slowly, constantly searching for a way to control it.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

...

The void seemed very fragile, constantly shattering. Gradually, Lin Fan gained some insight. The arm was only temporarily unaccustomed. As time passed, the arm gradually merged with him, and he gained control.

Knowing this, Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief. What surprised him even more was that the "Indestructible Demon Body" had advanced to "Eternal Indestructibility."

In Lin Fan's mind, at the moment when he was about to be completely defeated, it was the advancement of the "Indestructible Demon Body" that saved his life.

Sometimes, Lin Fan wondered if he was truly the destined protagonist of this world. He took all kinds of risks, and in situations that were certain death, he always turned the tables against all odds. It was like a newbie immediately challenging the world's top boss, only for the boss to die in all sorts of strange ways, instantly turning the newbie into a god-level expert.

This eternal arm was so powerful—why hadn't it simply killed him from the start? That was something to be suspicious about.

Just then, Lin Fan's eyes lit up. Could it be that he carried an idiot光环?

Thinking this, Lin Fan increasingly felt it might be possible.

Consider Chicklet—Lin Fan felt the likelihood was high. No matter what, Chicklet was the descendant of an ancient ferocious beast, yet after being taken in by Lin Fan, its mind seemed to have turned idiotic, lacking any of the霸气 of an ancient ferocious beast.

"Ah..."

Having figured all this out, Lin Fan, whether right or wrong, believed his own reasoning.

Lin Fan looked at his right hand and couldn't help nodding. Invincible...

His future life could only be described in eight words.

"Against the strong, be wild; against the weak, be tricky."

Then Lin Fan stood up, patted his butt with both hands, and prepared to rescue Chicklet.

"Hey, the right hand really is different—even patting my butt hurts a bit."

The heart that had been half-dead earlier was now brimming with joy.

Phoenix nirvana, rebirth from fire.

Lin Fan knew this situation well. Thinking about what Chicklet would look like after rebirth from fire made him a little excited.

"Chicklet, don't panic. I'm coming to save you now." Lin Fan took out the Life Seed.

Lin Fan had studied this seed for a long time without figuring it out, but to him, regardless of whether it would be useful later, the priority was to free Chicklet.

Now Lin Fan held the Life Seed in his right hand, and the seed trembled slightly as if it had life, as if it knew what was about to happen.

"Crack..."

With a crisp sound, the hardest Life Seed instantly shattered, turning into a river of life that dripped onto the eggshell.

"Cock-a-doodle-doo!" At this moment, Chicklet inside the eggshell seemed to sniff something and chirped joyfully.

"Boom..."

In an instant, towering flames blazed fiercely.

"Cock-a-doodle-doo!" A cry resounded through heaven and earth.

Within the towering flames, a figure radiated dazzling light, as if everything in the world would pale before it.

Lin Fan stared excitedly at the figure in the flames.

A phoenix—a true phoenix.

Chicklet had finally transformed from an ugly duckling into a swan. Its majestic wings, its slender body, its phoenix tail burning with flames—so domineering, as if all things in heaven and earth were prostrate at its feet.

Though the true form was not yet visible in the flames, Lin Fan believed it couldn't be wrong—Chicklet had evolved.

And beneath the phoenix's claws, an ancient tree that seemed to connect heaven and earth shot up, like the king of trees, so majestic.

"Chicklet, I knew you wouldn't let me down." Lin Fan clenched his hands in excitement, his joy beyond words.

"Cock-a-doodle-doo!" Chicklet chirped happily.

Lin Fan waited excitedly, but the moment the flames vanished, his excited expression instantly changed.

"This... this..." Lin Fan was dumbfounded, feeling like dying.

Chicklet was still the same Chicklet, and the originally tailless Chicklet now had its first tail, but it was negligible.

Chicklet leaped in the air, as if waking from a long sleep, stretching its body freely. Its claws, which did not shock the world with their elegance, stretched out in the air, then it pounced onto Lin Fan's shoulder and rubbed its chicken head against Lin Fan's cheek.

"Cock-a-doodle-doo..."

Lin Fan's hopeful heart was instantly shattered by Chicklet's current appearance.

A featherless chicken with one extra tail.
