The liver is a late bloomer!

"Junior brother, what level of combat power do you have among Golden Immortals?" Yang Wanshan was worried that Xu Chen might have a mishap at the Returning Hall.

"In terms of combat power, even if all the Golden Immortal geniuses of the human race were gathered together, they wouldn't be enough for me to defeat with one hand."

Xu Chen released a wisp of his aura, but this wisp of aura almost caused Yang Wanshan, who was standing to the side, to activate his source energy to resist.

"Good, Junior Brother has never disappointed me in terms of combat strength!"

"In comparison, senior brother, your strength is much weaker."

Thinking of this, Xu Chen waved his hand and released six Immortal Dao Divine Power Crystals. These were all exchanged in the Great Sun Divine City and could be taken out to allow other beings to accept Immortal Dao Divine Powers.

"These are one-time-use Immortal Dao Divine Power Crystals that I exchanged with the Great Sun God Clan. After you, Senior Brother, refine these Immortal Dao Divine Powers to perfection, you will be able to learn a Great Dao Divine Power."

"By then, Senior Brother's combat strength will not be the top among humans, but it will definitely be in the upper ranks."

The six crystals of immortal powers floated towards Yang Wanshan.

"Rising Sun Divine Dragon, Sacred Sun Immortal Sea, Turbid Sun Illuminating the Sky, Blazing Sun Sacred Body..."

"Have you learned these supernatural abilities, junior brother?" Just by looking at the divine runes in these immortal supernatural abilities, Yang Wanshan could feel their extraordinary power.

"I learned something even more advanced."

"Okay~~"

The Great Stream Sect, the Treasure Treasury Realm.

Several elders from the Treasure Vault Realm were gathered together, their faces beaming with joy as they talked about the return of their former junior grandmaster, now the Second Supreme Elder.

Just then, the teleportation array in the treasure vault was activated, and Yang Wanshan teleported over with more than a hundred spatial acquired spiritual treasures.

"Take out the items from these acquired spiritual treasures in these spaces, sort them out, and put them away properly," Yang Wanshan instructed before leaving.

"As ordered!"

Several Golden Immortal Realm elders quickly stood up and respectfully accepted these acquired spiritual treasures from the spatial realm.

"My God, so many acquired spiritual treasures!!"

"All the materials I have here are at the level of Acquired Spiritual Treasures!"

“Me too!!”

"I have tens of millions of immortal artifacts here!"

"I have all sorts of cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities passed down from different races!"

The Golden Immortal elders exchanged glances and realized that this was something brought back by the Supreme Second Elder.

Because there were so many items, several Golden Immortal Realm elders summoned tens of thousands of disciples guarding the treasure vault to help organize them.

At this moment, Xu Chen had already arrived at the Nine Emperors City, the Human Emperor Temple Secret Realm, through the teleportation array.

Qingzhu Dazun was brewing a pot of bamboo leaf tea.

"Xu Chen, the coordinates of the two great holy races you provided are very important. The human race will give you a corresponding reward afterward," said Grand Venerable Qingzhu.

"I took a moment to check my contribution points balance in the Human Realm, and I found it's almost gone. So, there's no need to give me any rewards," Xu Chen said, waving his hand.

"One is one, two is two, and what is required must be included," said Grand Master Qingzhu formally.

"Okay~" Xu Chen nodded, the human race was still the same as before.

Twenty innate spiritual treasures appeared behind Xu Chen, emitting a unique light.

"These are the innate spiritual treasures I collected along the way. Great Venerable, please take a look and see if there is anything that the human race lacks. I can rent them to you."

Xu Chen took a sip of the bamboo leaf tea from the Great Master Qingzhu; it tasted just like before.

"The Human Emperor told me that I, on behalf of the Human Emperor Temple, will rent all twenty of these innate spiritual treasures so that the human race's holy-grade weapon refiners can study the divine runes on them more thoroughly."

"Now that you've advanced to the Golden Immortal realm, you'll likely become a Saint-grade weapon refiner. The Human Emperor Temple won't be paying you for these innate spiritual treasures."

"But you can borrow the innate spiritual treasures, or even the supreme innate treasures, from the human race's treasure vault to observe."

Grand Venerable Qingzhu took out a token from the Treasure Vault Realm, which transformed into a stream of light and entered Xu Chen's body.

“That works.” Xu Chen thought of Da Xu. According to Da Xu, as long as he mastered enough Great Dao Divine Scriptures and had the materials, he could refine any kind of acquired spiritual treasure.

After speaking, Xu Chen suddenly seemed to remember something and waved his hand, releasing a mountain of cultivation techniques and magical abilities in the form of jade slips.

"These are the alien cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities I acquired along the way. One of the major races is stronger than the human race, while the rest are all weaker than the human race."

"See if you can turn them into cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities suitable for the human race."

Since his battle with Yu Lichuan of the Yu Shen Clan, Xu Chen has come to a profound understanding of the gap in their cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities.

"It seems you suffered quite a shock while in the God Clan."

Grandmaster Qingzhu looked at Xu Chen with some heartache, feeling that his own prodigy had suffered a lot of injustice in the Holy Clan.

"If one can master the Great Dao Divine Power at the Golden Immortal Realm, I almost wouldn't have made it back," Xu Chen said with a wry smile.

“Every path is walked step by step. Just because the human race doesn’t have its own Great Dao Divine Power inheritance now doesn’t mean it won’t in the future,” Grand Venerable Qingzhu comforted him.

"That's natural. Once I advance to the Saint Venerable level, I will create hundreds of Great Dao Divine Powers suitable for my human race."

Xu Chen was jokingly referred to as a "minor clan" during his battles in the Dark Dao Network of the Divine Clan, which greatly displeased him.

From that moment on, he vowed that once he became an invincible Saint, he would create hundreds of Great Dao Divine Power inheritances and lead the younger generation of human geniuses to the Divine Race to get revenge.

"Excellent! This is the spirit and energy that our human race's most outstanding talents should possess." Grand Venerable Qingzhu cheered.

As they were talking, the two celestial officials came over and put away all the jade slips containing cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities that Xu Chen had taken out.

"I don't want future generations of the human race to experience the same rain that I've been through," Xu Chen murmured. "Yes, without such a belief, our human race wouldn't have come this far."

"Now that you are a Golden Immortal, what are your plans for the future? Will you continue cultivating, or will you venture into the deep space of the Star Sea to seek opportunities?" Grand Venerable Qingzhu suddenly asked.

"I want to join the Star Sea Battlefield first, and later I might go to deep space to look for opportunities," Xu Chen said after thinking for a moment.

"The battlefields of the myriad races in the main realm are all in the dark side of the main realm. The once bustling Star Sea has been peaceful for the last few thousand years, so any fighting there is only small-scale."

"On the dark side of the battlefield, aren't we humans just going through the motions without putting in any real effort?" Xu Chen asked curiously.

"They go through the motions but don't put in the effort, only when it comes to conquering the dark races, but when they come across resources, they still plunder them."

"We can't just let other powerful clans use the rewards from the Holy Land to become stronger," said Grand Venerable Qingzhu with a smile.

"Then I'll take a stroll around the Dark Side of the Battlefield," Xu Chen said.

At this moment, a streak of azure light flashed, and the Azure Bamboo Venerable's expression froze, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.

"Great Venerable, what's wrong?" Xu Chen sensed the anger of the Azure Bamboo Great Venerable.

"A Great Venerable World located in the deep sky robbed and killed two of our merchant caravans, and even killed one of our Great Luo Realm experts," said the Azure Bamboo Venerable with some anger.

"Great Venerable One, how many Great Venerable Ones are there in that world?" Xu Chen asked immediately.

“There are two Grand Venerables and thirty-two Great Luo Realm experts.” Grand Venerable Qingzhu looked at Xu Chen, puzzled.

"Grand Venerable Qingzhu, send me a powerful expert who can suppress the two Grand Venerables, and leave the rest to me." A glint of fire flashed in Xu Chen's eyes.

"Your current combat power is enough to kill a Grand Luo Realm expert," Grand Venerable Qingzhu exclaimed in shock.

"It's still possible. As long as the Great Venerable Realm experts don't interfere, I can wipe out that Great Venerable World," Xu Chen said confidently.

"Knowing you just got back, I wanted to show off."

“Alright, it just so happens that one of the Great Venerables of Xuanding Saint Venerable is guarding the human race, so you can go with him.” Great Venerable Qingzhu took out a mission jade slip and handed it to Xu Chen.

"Leave it to me. I'll set off once I return to the main hall," Xu Chen nodded.

Just as Xu Chen was chatting with the Great Venerable Qingzhu.

All the sects that were on good terms with the Daxi Sect received invitations, which immediately caused an uproar.

Ten days later, in the Great Stream Sect Master's world.

The entire Daxi Sect was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, and all the disciples of the Daxi Sect wore formal attire to welcome the various sects.

"Greetings, Second Supreme Elder!"

Tens of millions of disciples celebrated Xu Chen's return in the square.

On the celebration stage, hundreds of huge light screens were broadcasting the branching ceremony live.

All the disciples of the Daxi Sect admired Xu Chen's divine appearance.

With a faint smile on his face, Xu Chen used his own power of law to help up wave after wave of Great Stream Sect disciples who came to pay their respects to him.

"Elders from various sects will arrive soon, mostly to watch the excitement," Yang Wanshan's voice rang in Xu Chen's ears.

"Who are the ones nitpicking?"

The disciples in the square withdrew, and tens of millions of disciples flew in from afar, landing in the square to pay their respects and admire Xu Chen's divine figure.

A powerful force of law enveloped tens of millions of disciples, and after they bowed, it gently helped them up.

Xu Chen's actions were primarily aimed at testing the cultivation level and talent of these disciples.

"Those who are critical will come directly to you for advice."

“Over the years, our sect has blocked the path of many other sects. When you were here, the sect was at its zenith, and even if we blocked their path, they didn’t dare to show their faces.”

“Now that you’ve been gone for so long, they’ve been using all sorts of methods to take away a lot of the sect’s profits.”

“Now that you’ve been back for so long, they might come over to test the waters.”

Hearing Yang Wanshan's words, Xu Chen looked puzzled. When he was in the human race, the development of the Great Stream Sect did not encounter any obstacles. As for which sects blocked its path, Xu Chen had no recollection at all.

Just then, all the disciples of the Great Stream Sect Master World finished their greetings, and the most outstanding sects remained in the square, lining up on both sides.

A portal connected the Great Stream Sect's mountain gate to the plaza here.

The disciples outside the mountain gate began to call out names.

"Mountain Sect, Elder Yang Yan, along with the sect's disciples, congratulates the return of the sect's Second Supreme Elder! Gift list: one embryonic acquired spiritual treasure and one hundred immortal artifacts."

"The Wangchuan Sect, Elder He Bing wrote to the sect's disciples, He..."

Xu Chen maintained a smile as he looked at the elders from various sects who had come to participate in the celebration.

Among the various sects that came to offer their congratulations, some were led by elders, while others were led by grand elders.

Without exception, they were all experts at the Great Luo Realm.

"When these elders start asking me questions, how badly should I beat them?"

As more and more sects came to offer their congratulations, Xu Chen felt that he should exercise restraint in his actions.

"Elders? The elders are all Great Luo Realm experts, they definitely won't make a move."

"Those who are seeking your guidance are all Golden Immortal Realm disciples they brought with them. Just don't kill them or damage their essence."

Yang Wanshan, sitting next to Xu Chen, glanced at him. (End of Chapter)
