The liver is a late bloomer!

"Tread the light!"

With the assistance of a grand formation, plus the acquired spiritual treasure, the Xuan Sha Blade, he possessed it.

Xu Chen slashed with his sword, causing the strongest Grand Luo Realm expert on the other side to show a look of terror.

Just because Xu Chen's single strike severed half of his essence, he couldn't even touch Xu Chen's shadow.

"Show me your true skills! Otherwise~"

Xu Chen slashed again, the blade flashing across the neck of the Great Luo Realm expert.

This strike further reduced the Great Luo Realm expert's source energy by half.

"hateful!"

"Dark Netherworld!"

The Great Luo Realm expert activated his origin, and a dark aura instantly enveloped the entire battle formation.

When this dark aura came into contact with Xu Chen, it was as if it had found an outlet, with endless darkness and netherworld merging into Xu Chen's soul.

"Boy, so what if you have such combat power at the Golden Immortal Realm?"

"The methods of a Great Luo Realm expert are beyond your imagination."

Just as the Grand Luo Realm expert was feeling smug, Xu Chen appeared from the depths of the void behind him.

"Too weak! You're far inferior to any of the Great Luo Realm experts I've ever seen!"

"Judging from the supernatural abilities of your race, do you alien races not even have a Saint Venerable Realm expert?"

As Xu Chen spoke, he once again swung his sword and beheaded the Great Luo Realm expert.

"what!!!"

The Great Luo Realm expert, having regained his true form, instantly became enraged, frantically burning his origin and mobilizing the power of the Dark Dao to attack Xu Chen.

However, Xu Chen's figure seemed to merge with the void, and the attacks of the Great Luo Realm experts could not find an outlet.

"Impotent rage".

"This is pointless, go die!"

In an instant, the blade light imbued with destructive power flashed across the battlefield.

In less than half a day, Xu Chen's battle was over.

The Golden Immortal Realm puppet army of the Puppet Reincarnation Tower also ground down the corresponding Great Luo Realm experts to only a trace of their original essence.

Xu Chen didn't bother to say anything and ended the battle with a single slash.

At this moment, only Hua Wuyou and the Great Luo Realm expert remained fighting on the entire battlefield.

Xu Chen didn't intervene. After watching for a long time, he couldn't help but make a comment.

"A bunch of noobs pecking at each other~"

While the battle was raging, Hua Wuyou heard Xu Chen's sarcastic remark and looked somewhat embarrassed.

"Senior, you may step down."

Ninety thousand Golden Immortal Realm puppets formed a battle formation and pressed down on the last Great Luo Realm expert.

Half a day later, the battle ended.

Xu Chen looked at the spoils collected by his clone and was overjoyed.

A purple compass, radiating the light of an innate spiritual treasure, floated in front of Xu Chen.

"With this innate spiritual treasure, it will be much easier to find people in the future." Xu Chen waved his hand and put the purple compass into his spatial magic treasure.

At this moment, Hua Wuyou led a group of young men and women to Xu Chen.

"Our Flower Star Clan will forever remember your great kindness and virtue, young friend."

Hua Wuyou led the group of young men and women in bowing.

Xu Chen stared at Hua Wuyou for a moment before speaking, "In my clan, this means you don't want to pay me?"

Upon hearing Xu Chen's words, Hua Wuyou's body trembled violently, and she quickly gestured to the young man beside her to take out an innate spiritual treasure.

"The Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Heluo Pearl, must have been your clan's most prized possession before," Xu Chen said after examining the Innate Spiritual Treasure Pearl in his hand.

"My benefactor has discerning eyes; it is indeed a primordial spiritual treasure of our clan." Hua Wuyou looked at Xu Chen with trepidation, for the lives of him and these children rested on the decision of the man before him.

A spatial artifact appeared in Xu Chen's hand, and he transferred all the miscellaneous items from the River Luo Pearl into it.

"I'm not interested in the junk here, you can take it." Xu Chen tossed the acquired spiritual treasure to Hua Wuyou.

Although it's described as tattered, it actually contains the Great Dao cultivation techniques passed down by the Flower Star Clan and some innate and acquired spiritual treasures; the rest are just miscellaneous items.

"Then thank you very much, my benefactor."

"My benefactor, there are probably still pursuers behind us. I'll take these children and take my leave first." Hua Wuyou said, preparing to depart.

"Don't rush, let's talk." A smile appeared on Xu Chen's face.

Inside a secret reception area on the Black Crystal Ship, Xu Chen generously opened a food box from a top-tier restaurant of the Divine Clan and distributed the only delicious dishes inside to the young men and women.

"senior……"

"With your strength, fellow Daoist, I dare not call myself a senior in front of you. You may simply call me Wuyou," Hua Wuyou quickly replied.

"I'll still call you Fellow Daoist. My master is also named Wuyou, so it feels a bit awkward to call you that."

"Come on, let's eat and chat." Xu Chen poured wine for Hua Wuyou.

Hua Wuyou was flattered and held the cup up loosely.

"I've kept you here for two reasons: first, to find out which powerful races reside in the nearby star sea; and second, to search for the nearby spatial turbulence zone," Xu Chen asked directly after pouring the wine.

“The situation in this Star Sea is rather complicated. Fellow Daoist, you might want to take a look at this jade slip.” Hua Wuyou took out a jade slip and handed it to Xu Chen.

Xu Chen examined it for a moment, and a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

The jade slip records almost no major races.

"Regarding the spatial turbulence zone that you are looking for, I have only heard some rumors."

Hua Wuyou pointed out a beam of light, centered on the location of the black crystal ship.

A finger traced a direction in the light and shadow.

“If you follow that direction, you will encounter a vast, endless mountain range of abandoned rocks. Within this mountain range, there is an area where the space is extremely unstable,” Hua Wuyou said, pointing in that direction. “Thank you for informing me, Fellow Daoist.”

Xu Chen raised his glass and clinked it with his, then they started chatting.

During the conversation, Xu Chen learned that the entire Huaxing Clan now consists of only the members of the small portable cave dwelling that Hua Wuyou brings with her.

Seeing the bleak look in Hua Wuyou's eyes, Xu Chen handed him the map of the star sea he had discovered along the way.

This prompted Hua Wuyou to kneel and express his gratitude.

After a banquet, under Hua Wuyou's extremely reluctant gaze, he controlled the acquired spiritual treasure flying boat and flew into a giant teleportation portal.

"Two innate spiritual treasures, it's worth wasting so much time."

Just then, the black crystal ship detected several acquired spiritual treasure flying boats flying in the distance.

"A small tribe like ours probably doesn't have any treasures left."

Xu Chen directly piloted the black crystal ship deep into the void of the star sea, flying in the direction indicated by Hua Wuyou.

Inside the Black Crystal Ship Secret Realm, Xu Chen looked at the purple compass in his hand, and a thought suddenly popped into his mind. He got up and went directly to Da Xu's Qi Refining Secret Realm.

At this moment, Da Xu was refining a large component of an acquired spiritual treasure. Just as he was about to speak, Da Xu stopped him with a look.

Seeing how focused Da Xu was, Xu Chen didn't disturb him.

It took five years for Da Xu to successfully refine this large-scale acquired spiritual treasure component.

"This is the core component of your cultivation secret realm; you cannot spare even a fraction of your attention from it."

"What do you want from me?"

Da Xu went to the tea table next to him, took out a can of immortal tea, and began to brew it with smooth and flowing movements.

A purple compass, a primordial spiritual treasure, appeared on the tea table.

"If we add the Thousand-Sky Ship, a causal innate spiritual treasure, to the Thousand-Sky Ship, could we continuously jump through space in the direction of returning home?"

After Xu Chen finished speaking, a cup of immortal tea was pushed in front of him.

"Ideally, it's possible, but in reality, it's quite difficult to control and ensure safety."

"With the help of a few more innate spiritual treasures, it might be possible to achieve this."

Upon hearing this, Xu Chen's face lit up with joy.

"However, with your current strength, you can only activate a maximum of three innate spiritual treasures."

Da Xu pointed out a beam of light in the void, and five innate spiritual treasures appeared within the light.

"Besides the five innate spiritual treasures—the Causal Compass, the Thousand-Sky Ship, the Starry Cauldron, the Dream God Mountain, and the Divine Soul Dao Pearl—I also need to refine a large acquired spiritual treasure to connect these five innate spiritual treasures."

After speaking, Da Xu paused for a moment, his eyes flashing with a torrent of data, as if he were making a calculation.

"That's not the most crucial point. The most crucial point is that each teleportation consumes 40% of your essence."

"Although the speed can be increased by several times or even more than ten times compared to before, the cost is too high."

"It's not worth it," Xu Chen said, shaking his head.

"No need. I can teleport at the limit each time, and the teleportation distance is within my tolerance range. I probably won't need to activate so many innate spiritual treasures."

"That's one method, but let me see how it's implemented first."

Da Xu picked up the cause-and-effect compass to check the situation.

"Don't think about that for now. My most important task right now is to successfully refine this large-scale acquired spiritual treasure cultivation world."

"Weren't you looking for spatial turbulence?"

"We'll talk about it after we find it."

Xu Chen nodded slightly, bid farewell, and left the Great Xu Cave.

Following the direction indicated by Hua Wuyou, the black crystal ship flew for over a thousand years before finally arriving at the abandoned stone mountains.

At first glance, the black and gray mountain ranges stretch endlessly.

Too lazy to explore personally, Xu Chen released over a hundred acquired spiritual treasure detectors that flew towards the abandoned rocky mountains.

The black crystal ship slowly landed and docked on a flat mountaintop.

"In a vast expanse of starry sky, such a continuous mountain range is quite a sight."

Standing atop a mountain, Xu Chen looked at the barren mountain range and suddenly felt a sense of monotony.

"I command, may the mountains be covered in auspicious snow."

With a powerful divine incantation, white clouds stretching for thousands of miles gathered above the once empty mountain range.

Crystal-clear snowflakes fell continuously.

Before long, everything Xu Chen could see turned into snow-capped mountains.

"This is right~"

Xu Chen waved his hand, and a table appeared, with a charcoal-grilled copper hot pot on it.

"I order, hot pot set meal!"

With a single magical spell, the hot pot was filled with broth, and five plates of mutton, three plates of tripe, and a bowl of sesame sauce sprinkled with scallions and cilantro appeared on the table.

Looking at all this, even though Xu Chen had already tasted all the rare delicacies from various ethnic groups, he still found this most ordinary hot pot to be the most delicious.

"You didn't invite me to eat hot pot?"

Da Xu's voice rang out from the distant black crystal ship, followed by a figure flying over.

Xu Chen used the Great Immortal's Words Technique to materialize a bowl of sesame paste.

The pot boiled, and the two began to cook the meat.

"Although it's just regular meat, it tastes extremely delicious to me."

Da Xu picked up a slice of cooked mutton with his chopsticks, dipped it in sesame sauce, and put it in his mouth to taste, revealing a look of delight.

"In my dream world, there was a year when it snowed heavily, and I came home from school hungry."

"In my dream, my mother prepared a hot pot like this," Xu Chen said casually. (End of Chapter)
