The liver is a late bloomer!

"Young friend, what I want is not just immortal crystals."

The Seventh Elder looked at Xu Chen with a calm expression.

"All that you have, including your true spirit, now belongs to me!"

At this moment, most of the Dao power within Xu Chen's body had dissipated, and Xu Chen had recovered 30% of his strength.

But in the eyes of the Seventh Elder, this strength was nothing more than the strength of an ant.

"This clone embodies nearly half of my essence and also possesses the battle power of a Great Venerable!"

"Young friend, do you want to put up a fight before you die?" the Seventh Elder said leisurely.

“Senior, according to the folk tales of our clan, you are the villain right now.”

"Villains usually die from talking too much. I wonder what your thoughts are on this, senior?" Xu Chen's feigned terrified expression calmed down.

"I knew you would guess this, you would definitely have a backup plan."

"Let me see what kind of backup plan you have that gives you such confidence in facing my power as a Great Venerable."

"As for the villains dying from talking too much, that's because they weren't strong enough."

At this moment, the Seventh Elder gently reached out his hand, intending to seal Xu Chen's true spirit.

However, when he mobilized his own Great Dao power, his expression suddenly changed. He discovered that 95% of the strength of his clone had been sealed, and his own combat power had also dropped to the Great Luo Realm.

"Good lad, you've got some skills!"

Just then, Xu Chen spoke coldly.

"I command, cause and effect are like a knife, sever them!"

A celestial blade formed from the power of cause and effect appeared in the sky and slashed down directly between Xu Chen and the Seventh Elder.

At that moment, a flying boat that appeared to be formed from black crystals appeared behind Xu Chen.

A spatial force lured Xu Chen into the black crystal ship, where a protective shield that defended against all attacks enveloped the ship.

At this moment, the Seventh Elder instantly felt that he had lost his connection with that clone crystal talisman.

Xu Chen, still trapped by a wisp of law power, stood at the ship's railing, a smile on his face as he looked at the Seventh Elder in the Star Sea.

A figure appeared behind Xu Chen.

"I thought the Spirit-Trapping Acquired Treasure I crafted could seal 97% of his strength, but it exceeded that by 2%. Da Xu's expression was rather unpleasant."

"It's alright. Once this wisp of law power dissipates, we'll kill him bit by bit."

Outside the Black Crystal Ship, the Seventh Elder calmly watched Xu Chen.

"You have methods, but unfortunately you have offended my Yushin Clan. Even though we are so far apart, do you think I have no way to send information back to my clan?"

As the Seventh Elder spoke, he formed a hand seal, and a surge of spatial power directly broke through the void and plunged into the deepest part of the Myriad Rivers.

At this moment, Da Xu burned his primordial power and, with the help of an acquired spiritual treasure, activated an innate spiritual treasure.

A colossal cauldron of stars trembled in the void, and in an instant, the space of the surrounding star sea began to blur.

The spatial power activated by the Seventh Elder was also shaken back into the Star Sea.

"Two innate spiritual treasures? I underestimated you." The Seventh Elder gave Xu Chen a deep look, his eyes filled with even more greed.

"You underestimate me in many ways." Xu Chen smiled slightly and began to slowly move his hands and feet.

At this moment, seventy percent of that trace of law power had dissipated.

"Senior, was what I just said appropriate for the occasion?"

"The villain dies from talking too much."

Upon hearing this, anger flashed in the Seventh Elder's eyes.

"Senior, once this wisp of law power on my body dissipates, I will give you a chance to fight me."

Xu Chen looked at the Seventh Elder with a deep gaze.

The medium-sized Spirit-Trapping Acquired Spirit Treasure that Da Xu refined was made at the cost of consuming his own artifact spirit and the treasure itself to suppress that Great Dao Crystal Talisman.

Xu Chen must completely destroy this Great Dao Crystal Talisman before this acquired spiritual treasure can no longer suppress it.

Otherwise, if this acquired spiritual treasure is sealed here and the Great Dao Crystal Talisman is eventually freed, the Seventh Elder will definitely come to the rescue. Xu Chen dared not gamble on what level of expert might arrive at that time.

At this moment, ninety percent of the power of that law had dissipated.

"An opportunity to fight you?"

"You and me." The Seventh Elder seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world.

"Even if I only have the combat power of the Great Luo Realm now, you are still no match for me."

"If you don't believe me, then come and see!"

"You must have a reason to kill me here, kid. Is it because you can't suppress the Great Dao Crystal Talisman for too long and want to wear me down little by little?"

The Seventh Elder instantly guessed Xu Chen's intention.

"You are wise, senior."

Xu Chen exuded a strong fighting spirit.

At this moment, that trace of the power of the Great Dao had completely dissipated.

Xu Chen, on the other hand, stepped out of the black crystal ship.

"Since I advanced to the Golden Immortal Realm, I have not yet unleashed my full strength. Today, I will use you as a whetstone."

A primordial spiritual treasure battle blade appeared in Xu Chen's hand; this was the Xuan Sha Blade, one of the thirty-two primordial spiritual treasures.

"How much of your essence do you have to power this innate spiritual treasure battle blade? Come, let me see how strong you are."

"Back in the day, I was also one of the top 10,000 geniuses on the list of 100,000 geniuses."

"Even without any magical artifacts, I can still suppress you today."

"Then please, senior, unleash your full potential!"

"I command, the Heavenly Blade shall slay the gods!"

A powerful force, seemingly designed to counter the bloodline of the Divine Race, was bestowed upon the Xuan Sha Blade in Xu Chen's hand.

With one step, he transformed into the true form of the Great Dao, with eight dantian behind him, and the world appearing and disappearing behind him.

A great sun tower stood behind Xu Chen in the void.

Sensing the immense aura emanating from Xu Chen, the Seventh Elder's expression changed slightly.

But he was already in a bind; the vessel for his clone was the Great Dao Crystal Talisman, and he couldn't stray too far from it.

"Senior, come on!"

The three-thousand-foot-tall Great Dao True Body wielded the innate spiritual treasure, the Xuan Sha Blade, and slashed towards the Seventh Elder.

Meanwhile, on the Black Crystal Ship outside the battlefield, Da Xu prepared a banquet and brewed a pot of fresh tea, eating and watching the battle.

As soon as the battle began, Xu Chen and the Seventh Elder were evenly matched.

Xu Chen didn't use any fancy supernatural abilities; he could only fight him using his strongest sword-based supernatural abilities.

With the help of the Great Immortal's words and the innate spiritual treasure, Xu Chen was able to damage a trace of the Seventh Elder's essence with each of his strikes.

With the support of powerful Golden Immortal Origin Power and various recovery abilities, Xu Chen was almost completely unexhausted after several days of battle.

This battle lasted for three months. Xu Chen witnessed seven divine abilities of the Divine Race, each of which was powerful enough to destroy most of Xu Chen's origin.

But each time, Xu Chen used his newly learned alien immortal techniques to evade them.

"Boy, this matter is now settled."

"Once I advance to the Saint Venerable Realm, I will personally go to your human race and kill you!" The Seventh Elder, with only a trace of his original power left, looked at Xu Chen with resentment.

"Senior, we've said this many times during the battle. Let's try something new!" The Seventh Elder remained silent, then directly unleashed the last wisp of his essence.

Seeing the battle over, Xu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Feeling that nearly half of his original power had been depleted, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Come on, come and eat! We'll move on to the next round after we're done!"

Da Xu's voice came from the black crystal ship.

"Why don't you go and refine your Puppet Reincarnation Tower?"

On the deck of the black crystal ship, Da Xu was drinking and enjoying food with Qi Tianyun when Xu Chen stepped out and joined them.

"It's that acquired spiritual treasure that traps spirits. When you were fighting, the Great Dao Crystal Talisman inside resisted extremely strongly, and I had to suppress it at all times."

"We need to quickly restore our original state and eliminate this hidden danger so we can set off. I also need to refine my Puppet Reincarnation Tower." Da Xu poured wine for Xu Chen.

"Let's use innate spiritual treasures to set up the formation. It's fun to try it out the first time, but it's not interesting to kill the same enemy a second time." Xu Chen savored the food and drank the wine, silently restoring his own essence.

“That makes sense,” Da Xu nodded.

"By the way, have you checked the surrounding star sea area? This area shouldn't be considered a barren land."

During the battle, Xu Chen sensed that the stellar energy in this starry sea area was quite abundant.

"I've checked. It's not near any major clans. Within a radius of trillions of miles, there are only a few Golden Immortal Worlds."

Da Xu waved his hand and released a three-dimensional star map.

"It seems safe enough. Let's not move the location and set up the formation here."

"The only innate spiritual treasure suitable for setting up an array is Dream God Mountain." Hundreds of sacred-grade arrays flashed through Xu Chen's mind.

"Okay." Da Xu nodded.

"It's a pity that the Puppet Reincarnation Tower was not successfully crafted, otherwise, we could have used it to give it a try."

"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future." Xu Chen downed his drink in one gulp, picked up a roasted animal leg from the table, and began to gnaw on it.

Meanwhile, Qi Tianyun, who was listening nearby, felt that the outside world was too crazy and that he felt safer in his mother's world.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, is there anything I can do to help?" Qi Tianyun filled Xu Chen's cup with wine.

Da Xu had already begun setting up formations on the battlefield with his innate spiritual treasures.

"Fellow Daoist Qi, please cast your blessing spell on me." Xu Chen saw that Qi Tianyun also wanted to lend a hand, so he came up with a plan.

"it is good!"

Qi Tianyun immediately activated his own source power, giving Xu Chen a lucky buff.

After finishing the banquet, Xu Chen began to consume the Holy Pill for restoring his original essence and slowly began to recover.

A month later, a killing array set up by the innate spiritual treasure Dream God Mountain entered the Dream Extermination Array.

Xu Chen's essence has just returned to its peak state.

Subsequently, the Acquired Spirit Treasure controlled by Da Xu released another clone of the Seventh Elder.

"Xu San, I will not let you get away with this!"

"When the time comes, I will capture you and take you back to the Divine Clan to suffer all the punishments of my clan. Your entire family and clan will not be spared!" The vicious voice echoed throughout the entire formation.

The grand formation was activated. The Dream Dao Grand Formation directly divided the Seventh Elder's original essence into ten parts, each of which was trapped in a separate dream world.

Xu Chen, on the other hand, easily severed that wisp of origin in one dream world after another.

Six months later, the Great Dao Crystal Talisman that Xu Chen had been looking at dissipated in the Star Sea Domain.

"Finally, I can embark on my journey home," Xu Chen murmured, staring in the direction of the human protagonist.

And this was a massive teleportation portal slowly unfolding in the Star Sea.

Although Xu Chen did not travel during these ten months, the innate spiritual treasures sent by Da Xu to explore the way were always on the road, leaving spatial coordinates along the way.

The black crystal ship, now shrunk to ten thousand feet in size, slowly passed through the portal and arrived in the unfamiliar star sea.

"Go home, go home!"

Xu Chen stood at the bow of the black crystal ship and shouted excitedly.

Although he didn't know how far the road home was, Xu Chen knew that as long as he headed in that direction, he would get closer and closer to home.

The black crystal ship sped through the void.

"I specially crafted several acquired spiritual treasures for the journey home. You can just release a few clones with abundant primordial energy and don't need to worry about them." Da Xu crafted many matching acquired spiritual treasures for the journey home.

"Don't worry about it." Xu Chen's gaze fell on those familiar stars.

"Alright, I'm going to refine the Puppet Reincarnation Tower."

Da Xu returned to his private weapon-refining secret realm, while Xu Chen controlled the flight direction of the Black Crystal Ship in the main control room.

The long and endless road has passed in the blink of an eye, and five thousand years have gone by in a flash.

Aside from the initial period when he piloted the Black Crystal Ship, Xu Chen spent the rest of his time either cultivating or practicing his proficiency with the Chaos Gates in the Holy White Space.

On this day, Xu Chen, as usual, refined several acquired spiritual treasures in the Chaos Gate, preparing to come out and cultivate for a while.

As soon as his consciousness returned to his body, he heard Da Xu's excited voice.

“It’s done! It’s done!!”

Within Da Xu's exclusive weapon-refining secret realm, a puppet reincarnation tower, three thousand feet tall and nine stories high, stood before Xu Chen.

Each level of the Puppet Reincarnation Tower exudes a mysterious aura of life.

Xu Chen's gaze pierced through the gate of the first level of the Puppet Reincarnation Tower, revealing the scene inside.

Ten thousand Golden Immortal Realm puppets stood in the first-floor hall.

Xu Chen gently waved his hand, and a Golden Immortal Realm puppet flew out and stood in front of Xu Chen.

The puppet was five zhang tall, faceless, and extremely robust. Its body was earthy yellow, and the aura it exuded conveyed the weight and weight of the Great Dao of Earth.

"Yin Yang, Wind, Thunder, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth," Xu Chen said, sensing the energy of each layer.

"When there is a strong enemy, the army forms a united front; when there is no strong enemy, each army forms its own."

"With this acquired spiritual treasure, you won't even need to lift a finger to kill a Grand Luo Realm expert!" Da Xu looked at these puppets as if they were his own children.

Xu Chen tapped the puppet's outer shell, producing a heavy, echoing sound.

"Not bad!" Xu Chen wasn't a battle maniac; he was too lazy to even bother with ordinary enemies. This large-scale acquired spiritual treasure, the Reincarnation Tower, perfectly replaced him.

"When I have time, I'll find a place where all living beings gather and test the power of this Puppet Reincarnation Tower."

Xu Chen gently waved his hand, and the Puppet Reincarnation Tower began to slowly shrink, eventually becoming a ten-inch-tall nine-colored tower that fell into Xu Chen's hand.

A water mirror appeared, and Xu Chen looked at his reflection.

"The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King~"

"This tower should be slightly inferior to the one in Li Jing's possession."

"However, once I advance to the Great Luo Realm, this tower should be quite powerful after another upgrade."

Xu Chen looked at the nine-colored pagoda in his hand with satisfaction.

"Who is Li Jing? Is the tower he wields powerful?" Da Xu asked curiously.

"The tower in his hand should be an innate spiritual treasure, a deity from a dream I had when I was a child," Xu Chen explained casually.

"Oh~, all the large-scale acquired spiritual treasures I crafted have room for upgrades."

"When this tower is upgraded to a Primordial Spiritual Treasure, the puppets inside will be able to advance to the Great Luo Realm."

"It'll definitely be stronger than the tower in your dream," Da Xu retorted, not to be outdone. (End of Chapter)
