Chapter 262: This Is Spatial Energy?
When the frequency of his Internal Breath vibration reached the limit of what Chu Nan could control—6381 Hertz, he stopped continuing to adjust the frequency of his Internal Breath. While he divided a portion of his energy to maintain the high-frequency vibration of his Internal Breath, he let the other portion of his energy focus on sensing the strange energy.
At first, he only felt that strange energy through his Internal Breath and did not know how to contact and influence it.
After a while, he suddenly had a thought. He stretched out his left hand and stretched out his Internal Breath further, letting it enter the space further away from his body.
As expected, there were countless extremely weak and almost negligible unknown energies in the surrounding space that seemed to be attracted by his Internal Breath and gathered from all directions.
Chu Nan carefully controlled his Internal Breath to slowly contract. The energy that gathered was like a bee attracted to a flower. It stuck to his Internal Breath and followed the route of retraction to stick to the skin of his left palm. It entered his skin and surged into his flesh before fusing with his meridians with his Internal Breath. In the end, it flowed into his dantian and disappeared.
“No way—”
Chu Nan opened his eyes and looked at his left palm with surprise.
If he was not wrong, the strange energy that was attracted by his Internal Breath should be the thing that the teacher of West Cloud Academy and many powerful martial artists he had seen after that had mentioned—spatial energy!
However… wasn’t spatial energy something that could only be grasped after breaking through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate and becoming a Void Break Martial Artist? Why did he unintentionally experience it now?
This was too ridiculous!
Chu Nan frowned and thought for a moment before mobilizing his Internal Breath to cover his entire body again to maintain the high-frequency vibration state. This time, he not only stretched out his left hand, but he also controlled all the Internal Breath in his body to reach out.
As expected, countless strange energies were immediately attracted by his Internal Breath in the surrounding space. Then, they flowed into his body along with his Internal Breath and entered his dantian.

This time, Chu Nan no longer felt nothing like before. Instead, he clearly felt that his dantian seemed to have become more filled. It was similar to the feeling of cultivating the Nine Revolutions Technique every day.
“Could this be equivalent to me cultivating a cycle of the Internal Breath cultivation method?”
Chu Nan mobilized his Internal Breath from his dantian in confusion. He was surprised to discover that the strength of his Internal Breath had increased by 0.376871% compared to before!
Although the increase was slightly less than when he truly cultivated the Nine Revolutions Technique, it was already very shocking.
Chu Nan thought for a moment and covered his entire body with his Internal Breath again before adjusting it to a high-frequency vibration state.
Soon, he had already attracted some spatial energy into his body and flowed it into his dantian.
This time, he did not stop immediately. Instead, he maintained this state.
As expected, under the guidance of his Internal Breath, spatial energy continuously flowed into his dantian. The Internal Breath in his dantian also strengthened bit by bit, allowing it to become easier and easier for Chu Nan to maintain the high-frequency vibration state that covered his entire body. The speed at which he attracted spatial energy also became faster and faster.
Feeling the obvious increase in his Internal Breath, Chu Nan was extremely happy.
Even if he had already broken through the fifth level of the Nine Revolutions Technique and successfully opened up all the meridians in his body, the cultivation of his Internal Breath could only be done step by step. Every day, his dantian could at most endure the tempering of the fifth level of the Nine Revolutions Technique. The value of his Internal Breath increase was basically fixed and small.
Now, through the help of the spatial energy he unintentionally felt, he had broken through this limit.
Now, every cycle his Internal Breath circulated, it could attract a portion of spatial energy and directly increase his Internal Breath.

The speed at which this Internal Breath increased was more than ten times faster than before!
How could he miss such a good opportunity?!
Chu Nan was soaked in the river water naked and maintained his posture without moving. The surrounding river water continuously boiled and rolled, and the space around his body clearly changed slightly. It was as if the space had turned into water as ripples spread out.
After an unknown period of time, through interacting with the surrounding spatial energy, Chu Nan suddenly felt his dantian becoming ‘full’ as it slowly ‘awakened’.
Feeling a trace of swelling pain in every meridian in his body, Chu Nan knew that he had reached his limit.
If he wanted to continue improving, he had to refine his body further and be able to accommodate higher-intensity Internal Breath circulation.
It was not impossible for Chu Nan to resolve this. As long as he forcefully circulated his Internal Breath and broke through the limit of his body, he could use the high-frequency vibration Internal Breath to recover and clearly refine his body.
He had often done this in the past. Moreover, through the hint he had obtained from Marshal Chemekov and the inspiration given to him by Angie Prairie, he could even combine it with the Purple Cloud Eight Desolates Body Tempering Technique to quickly refine the bones in his entire body, not to mention relatively simple things like meridians and muscles.
In other words, Chu Nan only needed to temper his body according to this method and quickly increase his Internal Breath according to the special method he had unintentionally obtained. His strength could even increase freely and maintain an extremely high speed!
When he thought of this, Chu Nan was extremely excited.
Although he had used half a year to advance from the speed of a third-stage Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist to the initial-stage Internal Breath Realm, he knew very well that it would take a long time to advance from the initial-stage Internal Breath Realm to the fifth-stage Internal Breath Realm. He was still far from truly facing the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate.
However, now that he had comprehended such a special way of cultivation, it meant that he could increase his Internal Breath to the strength of a fifth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist in the shortest period of time and face the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate head-on!
“Hmph, speaking of which, the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate is only a method for martial artists to master the control of spatial energy. I can already come into contact with spatial energy now. When I accumulate enough, how can I not break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate?”
Chu Nan waved his fists with great confidence.
He looked up at the sky and discovered that it was already dawn the next day.
It felt like he had not cultivated for long, but in fact, he had already spent nearly a day.
If it was any other time, Chu Nan would definitely use his special method to refine his body and increase his Internal Breath faster. However, he clearly did not have that much time now.
Opening his personal terminal, he discovered that after a day, Feng Mingxi was still ranked first. His points had already reached 1,767, and he was nearly 300 points ahead of the second place.
At this rate, he would almost definitely obtain first place.
On the other hand, because Chu Nan was immersed in his understanding of spatial energy today, his points did not move at all. It was still 1,127 points, but his ranking fell from the previous 63rd to the 139th, more than double.
“There are gains and losses. This can’t be helped.”
Chu Nan sighed and touched his chest. After confirming that it was still clean, he jumped out of the river and grabbed the clothes he had thrown by the river. He planned to wash his clothes according to the “Internal Breath Cleansing Technique” he had comprehended yesterday.
As soon as he squatted down by the river, Chu Nan suddenly felt something amiss. He quickly turned around and saw a monster that was 90% similar to the Storm Killer he had killed hundreds of times. However, it was more than a size larger, was three meters tall, and was six to seven meters long. It slowly walked out of the forest behind him.
Chu Nan’s heart tightened.
Storm Killer King, C-rank ferocious beast!
