Chapter 53:- A Cripple?! (2)
His name and age were displayed correctly; however, in the place where his level should be displayed as Nine Star Battle Apprentice, it was blank. The level that he spent more than a month inside the star fall jungle, continuously training and hunting demonic beasts was gone.
How would he not be shocked? To make matters even worse, all his skills were gone. The many battle skills that he had learned and spent so much of his efforts increasing their completion rate, had all disappeared.
"T-This can't be" his voice trembling, Yang Chen's eyes went towards his constitution.
Usually, it would be displayed as ordinary since he had no special physique; but right now it was replaced by a word that made him despair.
Constitution- [Destroyed]. If his constitution was destroyed didn't it mean that he had basically become a cripple? How was it any different than his first life where he was bedridden and ill?
In this world, one's constitution was one's foundation. If it was destroyed, it basically meant that person would no longer be able to cultivate and become stronger. In a world were strength meant everything, being unable to cultivate although it didn't mean death, it was not a boon either.
It meant that one would always remain ordinary. However, that option was not good for yang Chen. He who had already made an enemy out of an entire clan, being unable to cultivate basically spelled his death warrant.
It was also now that it struck him why he was feeling so weak and unable to move his body. it turned out that his foundation was destroyed in the last battle.
No matter how hard Yang Chen tried, he couldn't recall what had happened after he killed the elder named Zhang Zhan. What happened to the other lackeys from the Zhang clan and how his body got so out of shape to the point of having his constitution destroyed?
"Hahaha..." a hollow laugh leaked out of Yang Chen. His eyes which were filled with excitement a few seconds ago, were now despairing at the absurdity of the situation.
What was the point of spending so many points on items if he couldn't even use it? Yang Chen felt like everything that was happening to him currently was all a one big joke.
He had been given the hope of being alive, given a ton of fortune to spend only to have it all smash apart by a cruel reality.
Yang Chen did not know if he was dreaming or not but if it was a dream, he wanted to wake up from it. Knowing that he cannot cultivate anymore was no different than having a nightmare.
Yang Chen felt like a fool, he wanted to just throw everything away and give up when he noticed that he had missed a small detail. Hanging by the side where his physique was listed, was a small exclamation mark glowing in yellow.
The shock from of having his constitution destroyed was so great, that he had completely missed it. However, how would finding that be any help to him at this moment? Nevertheless, Yang Chen who was desperately hoping for a miracle clicked on that exclamation button.
A small pop up notification appeared saying [Constitution can be replaced anytime by purchasing a higher grade one from the shop].
"Huh?" Yang Chen tilted his head.
What did it mean? Could it be that there was still hope and that his destroyed constitution can still be repaired? Although that message didn't say anything about a destroyed constitution, to the despairing Yang Chen it was his only ray of hope.
Hell bent on finding a way to fix his destroyed physique, Yang Chen opened the [shop] option and immediately went over to the section that listed a collection of physiques.
Great Golden Body, Spiritual End Core Body, Purple Primordial Skeleton, Thousand Supreme Essence Body and so and so...
Although there weren't unlimited choices of options to pick from, there were nevertheless quite a few. Yang Chen did not know which one to pick, everything in this section seemed like a treasure among a treasure.
He felt like each and everything listed here, would be an unparalleled treasure outside. For example, the first option listed in this section, the Great Golden Body once possessed by the golden emperor, allowed one to have a golden body that cannot be harmed by any ordinary means.
The Constitution will transform one's blood into golden essence blood that not only increases the natural regeneration ability of a body by dozens of times, but even their talent and power would also grow by ten times that of an ordinary person.
Just like the Great Golden Emperor that dominated the vast heaven and earth once, the possessor of this constitution would become unordinary. And all of this was just the tip of the ice burg, there were so many more things written about the physique in the description.
The more Yang Chen scrolled, the more he realised how amazing the great golden body was. Nevertheless, the Great Golden Body wasn't the only good thing in this section, all the others sounded no less impressive than it, and some even far outclassed it.
There was also some constitution listed with complex and long descriptions that Yang Chen did not even understand a bit. However, he at least understood from their names that they were no ordinary constitution.
No matter which constitution he picked, Yang Chen would have his destiny completely changed. He would be like a carp that leapt over the dragon gate to become a dragon.
Be that may, Yang Chen was still in a conundrum. Considering that his destroyed constitution can be fixed by replacing it, the question tormenting his mind was, which one should he pick?
One should be clear that this question was not just any question that any random person comes across in his life every day. The thing he was choosing was not some vegetables from a vegetable market but supreme and unparalleled physiques that would have a lot of effect on his destiny.
Yang Chen sort of instinctively understood that he must choose wisely. In that regard, it would be much more easier to understand if one thought of this process as choosing a class in a game.
