Born Saints: Starting from Liaozhai

Chapter 68 Awakening of Innate Talent

Inside the dimly lit wooden house.

Su Chen opened his eyes, and what came into view was a wooden house that was both somewhat familiar and unfamiliar.

"You're back?"

He sighed.

I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to see them again.

Perhaps, when I'm stronger in the future, I can go back and take a look?

After thinking it over, he focused his attention on himself.

"Now?"

Feeling his extremely weak body, Su Chen was having trouble breathing.

The sudden transformation of his powerful physique into a frail and weak one made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

In the dim light, his gaze fell upon the control panel.

[Realm: Mortal]

[Awakening of innate endowments ————]

[Shuttle Cooldown: 35 days (35 days remaining)]

Su Chen immediately noticed the difference.

His age, lifespan, and cultivation level had changed, which was not unexpected. What surprised him was the information at the bottom.

"Is your innate talent awakening?"

"This means—"

Su Chen immediately thought of his innate endowments, such as his physique, spiritual root, and appearance, which had not yet been awakened.

The innate talent that was awakened last time was comprehension. In other words, will another talent emerge this time?

What will happen this time?

Su Chen was a little curious.

At the same time, he was also a little puzzled as to how this innate talent awakening came about.

"Because I traveled through time?"

"And—how long will it take to awaken?"

Su Chen's gaze involuntarily fell upon the cooldown time of the teleportation at the bottom.

Thirty-five days?

Su Chen began to speculate.

Once the cooldown period for teleportation ends, will the innate talent be able to awaken?

At the same time, does it also mean that we can make another new journey?

Su Chen was both curious and expectant.

besides----

Su Chen's eyes revealed a strange look.

Upon his return, his powerful body seemed to have vanished into energy, and the energy that his body had transformed into was now existing in an unknown place in the darkness.

Su Chen had a feeling that he could draw this energy back into his body whenever he wanted.

"In other words, in a sense, the results of my cultivation have not disappeared, but have simply remained in me in another form —"

Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, he sensed something and couldn't help but look out of the dimly lit wooden house.

He faintly heard several heavy footsteps stomping not far from the wooden house.

Judging from the sound of the footsteps, the owner of these footsteps seemed to be hesitating about whether or not to do something.

At this time.

Faint complaints and annoyances could be heard coming from outside the door.

"That sickly rich young master really runs fast; we didn't even catch him—"

"Brother Li, should we break down the door?!"

Hearing the hushed conversation coming from afar outside the door, Su Chen's eyes turned cold, and he couldn't help but recall the scenes from before.

Before traversing to the world of Liaozhai, after listening to his inner disciple Jiang Mian explain the Yunlu Daowen, he vaguely sensed several burly handyman disciples subtly surrounding him.

Before those people could react, he ran back into the house and closed the door.

Because I know that I can hide for a while, but not forever; there will always be times when I'm caught off guard and they'll corner me.

In order to quickly grasp the breathing technique and begin cultivation, and to gain the power to resist, he had to resort to teleportation—

Su Chen's expression grew increasingly cold.

As it turns out, this choice was correct!

If they hadn't traveled through time, it's obvious what would have happened!

Without hesitation, Su Chen immediately prepared to try cultivating the Pure Void Nourishing Yuan Breathing Technique to open the inner landscape of his lower dantian.

Next, he mobilized the energy that his body had previously transformed into, rapidly increasing his strength and realm!

Su Chen sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and was about to begin cultivating.

However, before he could even begin cultivating...

Suddenly, there was a knocking sound at the door.

"Hey kid, open the door!"

A loud, gruff voice rang out.

After waiting for a while, seeing that he remained unmoved, people outside started cursing.

"Are you deaf? Can't you hear?"

"I told you to open the door, didn't you hear me?!"

"If you don't open it yourself, you'll be in for a world of hurt once we do!"

As he spoke, there was a loud bang.

The door shook violently, and dust fell from the door frame.

Followed by.

boom! boom! boom!

The heavy impacts came one after another, making no attempt to conceal their brutality and impatience.

The entire wooden door was shaking violently, and the bolt made a screeching sound.

Clearly, they couldn't wait any longer and wanted to force their way in!

Su Chen frowned deeply. "These guys—"

So lawless?

Is nobody doing anything about this?

However, that makes sense, since this is ultimately just the area for menial disciples. As long as no one dies, it probably won't attract much attention.

I could hear the increasingly loud knocking at the door, and the creaking of the wooden door under its own weight.

Su Chen frowned.

"There's no time left—"

Although he had mastered the Pure Void Nourishing and Breathing Technique to perfection, he had never practiced it. In addition, opening the inner landscape of the lower dantian would definitely take some time.

Judging from the force with which the people outside were banging on the door, there simply wasn't enough time for him to clear the way inside.

At the same time, without opening up his inner vision, he dared not rashly accept the enormous energy of his body.

Soon, Su Chen came up with a solution.

Although he doesn't have enough time to open his inner vision now, and he no longer has the power he had before, it doesn't mean that he has no means to control these guys!

With a thought, Su Chen immediately began cultivating the Pure Void Nourishing Yuan Technique he had previously practiced.

In an instant, invisible ripples spread out in circles.

The previously dormant spiritual energy of heaven and earth suddenly began to slowly converge from all directions and rapidly flow into his body.

As soon as the spiritual energy entered his body, it quickly nourished his body, restoring some of his weakened state.

Strands of magical power formed within his body.

Feeling the magical power within his body, Su Chen was somewhat surprised.

Compared to the world of Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, the efficiency of cultivation here is much faster!

However, upon closer reflection, it makes sense. One is the Dharma-ending Age, where spiritual energy dissipates, while this place is still a time of abundant spiritual energy, so the cultivation speed is naturally very fast.

Feeling the wisps of magical power within his body, Su Chen looked towards the door, his gaze icy. "Even though it's only a little, it's enough—"

Su Chen slowly got up and calmly walked towards the door.

The room was already cramped, and he arrived at the door in just a few steps.
