Kapitel 27: Pain!!

"Agh!!"

An intense pain assaulted Chen Tian's body, causing him to writhe in agony. He felt as though his very being had been ripped apart from the inside, leaving him gasping for air and struggling to control the pain.

He tried to move, but the agony was too great, his limbs feeling heavy and useless.

"W-Why?!" Chen Tian cried out.

His voice was strained and filled with despair. He couldn't understand why he was being subjected suddenly to such excruciating pain, his mind reeling with confusion and fear for the worst.

Crack!

Suddenly, there was a sickening crack, and Chen Tian felt as though his body was being shattered into a million pieces.

"AHHH!"

He released a deep cry that echoed through the room. His body was wracked with intense pain, every muscle and sinew burning with fire.

His hand instinctively went up to his face, feeling the warm trickle of blood seeping from his nose and ears. He stumbled forward, his vision blurring as he tried to stay upright.

"M-My!! Dantian!?"

Chen Tian could feel his dantian breaking slowly, making him feel extreme pain.

Chen Tian knew that if his dantian was completely destroyed, he would never be able to cultivate again.

He gritted his teeth and tried to focus his mind, attempting to control the intense pain shooting through his body. But no matter how hard he tried, the pain only grew stronger and more unbearable with each passing moment.

Chen Tian's face contorted in agony as he struggled to remain conscious. His body trembled with the effort of holding on, but he knew that he couldn't give up. Not now, when his entire future as a cultivator hung on this.

"What could have caused my dantian to start breaking?

Did I make a mistake when I...

Aghh... When I practiced the Yin-Yang Cultivation Technique" Chen Tian pondered.

He reviewed his practice of the Primordial Yin-Yang Cultivation Technique, searching for any mistakes. However, he couldn't pinpoint any missteps in the technique.

He used all of his inner strength to try to save his dantian from further cracking. But the pain only intensified, and Chen Tian felt himself slipping into darkness.

He tried to fight through the pain, but it was too much to bear. Collapsing onto the ground with a loud thud, his body writhed in agony as he realized that his cultivation path was lost forever.

"N-No…."

Chen Tian's mind raced as he struggled to find a way out of the dire situation he found himself in. But as the pain surged through his body, his hope began to wane, and his eyes slowly closed. Was this to be the end of his journey as a cultivator?

That was the last thought in Chen Tian's mind before losing consciousness. However, little did he know that his journey was far from over and that fate had other plans for him.

Bang!

Suddenly, there was a loud 'bang' as his dantian exploded into many pieces.

The shockwave of the explosion spread throughout his body. If he had been in the Qi Refinement Realm, his cultivation would have suffered a severe setback. However, he was fortunate to still be in the Body Refinement Realm, and the Qi that he had absorbed was still in his flesh and not in his dantian.

The Yin Yang symbol drifted in the vast expanse of empty space. It seemed to have no place to settle, and its Yang energy began to seep out. However, before the energy could dissipate into the void, an unknown, brilliant orb materialized from within Chen Tian's body.

Shuuu!!

The orb swiftly absorbed the escaping Yang energy, causing the Yang side of the Yin Yang symbol's energy to gradually dwindle.

Minutes passed, and the orb continued to absorb more and more of the Yang energy. It grew in size, reaching the same dimensions as Chen Tian's Dantian. As it did so, Chen Tian's body trembled with an intense energy that seemed to be emanating from the orb.

Suddenly, a burst of blinding light erupted from the orb, completely enveloping the Yin Yang symbol along with Chen Tian's body.

Anyone observing the scene from the outside would witness Chen Tian encased within a luminous cocoon, with energy waves emanating from it so strong that they could be felt even from a distance. It seemed as though Chen Tian was undergoing a profound metamorphosis.

The cocoon pulsated with a bright light, which ebbed and flowed in a rhythm, almost as if it was breathing. The air was filled with a strange, otherworldly energy, causing the temperature to rise and the atmosphere to hum with a low-pitched vibration. The light intensified, casting a glow so bright that it was almost impossible to look at it directly.

As Chen Tian remained enclosed within the cocoon, his body began to undergo a radical transformation. His muscles convulsed, and his bones cracked as he writhed in the light.

The cocoon began to shrink and expand, almost as if it was alive and responding to the changes occurring within.

The energy continued to surge, causing a complete metamorphosis in every aspect of Chen Tian's body. As the transformation progressed. The surge of power coursing through his veins made him realize that he was no longer the same person he used to be.

Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, the cocoon shattered, and a myriad of glittering fragments scattered in all directions, showering the surrounding area with a breathtaking display of light.

Chen Tian emerged from the cocoon, completely transformed. His physique was more muscular and toned, and his skin glowed with an otherworldly light.

Chen Tian slowly awakened to find that his once-short hair had grown long enough to reach his neck.

As he attempted to get up, he noticed an unusual surge of power coursing through his veins.

Something had happened to his body, and he could feel it. However, as he tried to move his limbs, he found that they felt heavier than usual. As he looked around the room, he reached for the bed handle to help him stand up. But to his surprise, as soon as he touched it, the handle cracked under his grip, shattering into several pieces.

"What the..."

Chen Tian's mind raced with confusion as he realized that he had somehow gained a boost in his strength.

It was as if his body had transformed overnight, leaving him unsure of what to do next. He cautiously stood up, taking care not to accidentally break anything else. As he looked at his reflection in the mirror, he gasped in disbelief. His muscles had become more defined, and his body was now leaner and more athletic than before.

"What on Earth..."
