Chapter 2242 - 1932: Is This Special Constitution Really So Heaven-Defying?

Lu Chen paid no attention to Zhao Yu and continued doing his own thing, constantly absorbing the black spiritual evil emanating from Prince Zhen Nan.

Soon, the black spiritual evil exuding from Prince Zhen Nan’s body was entirely absorbed by Lu Chen. However, Lu Chen didn’t stop; he held Prince Zhen Nan’s hand, continuing to absorb the spiritual evil within him.

Prince Zhen Nan was at death’s door, unable to control the spiritual evil inside his body. When Lu Chen began to absorb it, the spiritual evil was easily drawn out.

The people in the room thought Lu Chen was eager to save his father and quickly urged him to stop.

"Princely Heir, you mustn’t! This black spiritual evil is difficult to refine. If you keep absorbing it, you’ll be easily countered!"

"Princely Heir, stop! The great king wouldn’t want to see you doing this."

"Princely Heir, you are the great king’s only heir, you mustn’t take such risks!"

...

Hearing their noisiness, Lu Chen suddenly turned to them and coldly said, "Shut up, all of you!"

Seeing Lu Chen’s anger, they instantly quieted down. At that moment, they also sensed the aura around Lu Chen rising, faintly showing signs of a breakthrough.

After calming himself, Lu Chen addressed the crowd, "I have a special constitution, able to absorb any kind of spiritual evil. This spiritual evil won’t harm me, so there’s no need to worry."

This...

Upon hearing Lu Chen’s words, the crowd exchanged looks with each other, their eyes filled with disbelief of such a constitution.

A special constitution? What kind of special constitution can refine even this Black Evil?

However, observing Lu Chen’s demeanor, it seemed that he was indeed unaffected. Typically, anyone who absorbed black spiritual evil would quickly suffer from backlash. Even if they suppressed it, their body would be in agony.

Yet, despite having absorbed so much black spiritual evil, Lu Chen appeared completely fine, proving he wasn’t lying. He genuinely possessed the ability to refine black spiritual evil.

Lu Chen then said, "Quiet down now, do not disturb me."

With those words, Lu Chen closed his eyes and accelerated the absorption of the spiritual evil within Prince Zhen Nan.

As the black spiritual evil was drawn out from Prince Zhen Nan’s body, his once muddy eyes gradually cleared. Regaining consciousness, he felt his body with disbelief.

At that moment, he could clearly feel the rapid depletion of the Black Evil within him. Without it, his Dragon Qi easily suppressed the spiritual evil, and his body began regaining its vitality.

This...

Prince Zhen Nan immediately turned to see who was holding his hand, discovering it was Lu Chen absorbing the Black Evil from him. His expression changed drastically as he hastily tried to stop him, "Chen’er, what are you doing? You can’t absorb that Black Evil..."

Lu Chen opened his eyes, looking at Prince Zhen Nan and said, "Don’t worry, father. I’m fine. This Black Evil holds no danger for me. Instead, it’s actually helping me improve my realm."

Prince Zhen Nan found it hard to believe what he heard; someone in this world could refine Black Evil!

He then observed Lu Chen closely. Noticing the steady rise in Lu Chen’s aura and the absence of any backlash, he finally felt at ease.

Yet he found it hard to comprehend. If Lu Chen possessed such a special constitution, how could he have failed the test back then?

If he could absorb Black Evil, passing the test involving drawing spiritual evil into one’s body should have been easy.

Surely such a special constitution couldn’t be acquired later in life, right?

Or was there someone who had sealed his special constitution? Thinking of this possibility, Prince Zhen Nan recalled Lu Chen’s mother consort.

Prince Zhen Nan surmised that it might indeed be possible; Lu Chen’s constitution was quite unique. Perhaps she feared that he would absorb spiritual evil too quickly, damaging it, and sealed it until his constitution fully matured before allowing him to absorb, thus sealing his special constitution.

Prince Zhen Nan fell into silence, wary of disturbing Lu Chen and causing a distraction that might lead to a spiritual evil backlash.

Refining spiritual evil was an incredibly painful process; it’s best not to have others disturb at such times.

Prince Zhen Nan waited there continuously.

After about two hours, Lu Chen realized that even after refining the Black Evil, his realm hadn’t improved. He thought to himself that it seemed he still needed to fight the malevolent forces.

Lu Chen released Prince Zhen Nan’s hand and asked, "Father, how do you feel now?"

Smiling, Prince Zhen Nan replied, "Much better. Thanks to you, otherwise, I might have joined your mother consort today."

"But tell me, are you really okay?"

Lu Chen said, "I’m fine."

Prince Zhen Nan then asked, "When I saw you refining Black Evil just now, it seemed effortless?"

Lu Chen replied, "That is thanks to my special constitution. Ever since it’s been activated, I feel no discomfort while refining spiritual evil."

Upon hearing this, Prince Zhen Nan and those in the room were astounded. Refining spiritual evil without any discomfort?

Can that really be true?

Is a special constitution so overwhelmingly powerful?

If that’s the case, wouldn’t he be able to cultivate continuously?

In this world, the biggest challenge for Spirit Martial Artists is the inability to continuously absorb spiritual evil. Refining spiritual evil is detrimental to the body, and doing it without pause could one day lead to backlash, with the pain of refining worsening over time.

Prince Zhen Nan regained his composure and looked at the people behind Lu Chen, then said, "Folks, you should understand what Chen’er’s words signify."

Upon hearing Prince Zhen Nan, the people in the room snapped back, in unison they said, "Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations, Princely Heir!"

With someone like Lu Chen possessing such a special constitution, they had a premonition that Lu Chen’s future achievements might rival those of the First-Generation Prince Zhen Nan. The thought of the Zhen Nan Prince Manor producing a Heavenly Realm powerhouse filled them with immense excitement.

They had once thought that with Prince Zhen Nan’s passing, the Zhen Nan Prince Manor would soon fall. Little did they know their princely heir possessed such a special constitution. Luckily, they hadn’t been hasty in abandoning the Zhen Nan Prince Manor.

Just then, Prince Zhen Nan sat up from the bed. Noticing this, Lu Chen quickly went over to support him.

With Lu Chen’s assistance, Prince Zhen Nan sat up effortlessly and told Lu Chen, "I feel much better now. You don’t need to hold me."

Hearing this, Lu Chen realized that Prince Zhen Nan wanted to test his current condition.

Lu Chen then slowly withdrew his hand. Once Lu Chen removed his hand, Prince Zhen Nan promptly threw off the quilt and got out of bed, standing directly on the ground.

Witnessing this scene, everyone in the room found it hard to believe. The man who had seemed at death’s door just moments before could now walk again.
