The liver is a late bloomer!

"Senior, make the choice: be sealed away or cooperate fully?"

A phantom river appeared in the Star Sea Domain, and within this river was reflected Xu Chen's karma.

The cage of cause and effect slowly condensed above the long river.

"You can actually summon your own River of Time!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Qianming shouted in shock.

"Senior, state your choice: cooperation or sealing?" Xu Chen continued to ask.

“Of course it’s cooperation. Kid, whether you believe it or not, the formation in this secret realm only targets the Truth that I’m possessing,” Qianming explained.

"Senior, there's no need to explain. Your choice is fine."

As Xu Chen spoke, he led 154 Great Venerable Realm puppets into the portal.

In a vast, empty secret realm, a figure exuding a terrifying aura slowly emerged from the void, looking at Xu Chen with indifferent eyes, as if he were a piece of trash.

At this moment, 154 Grand Venerable Realm experts instantly formed an array, while Xu Chen opened a passage in the void and entered the innermost layer of the secret realm.

In just two breaths, Xu Chen had stored everything in the inner layer into his spiritual treasure space.

Meanwhile, in the outer layer of space, 154 Grand Venerable Realm puppets were resisting the attacks of Saint Venerable Realm puppets.

Xu Chen appeared instantly, waving his hand to release the innate treasure Ten Directions Heaven. A world condensed, blocking the attack of the Saint Venerable Realm expert.

Taking this opportunity, Xu Chen quickly led his numerous puppets back into the Star Sea Domain.

The 100,000-foot-long portal of light slowly closed.

"If you cooperate with us in the future, this seed will not blossom within your karma."

Xu Chen gently raised his hand, and a bright green seed appeared in his palm.

As the river of time itself appeared, with a surge, the cause and effect related to the fusion of a thousand lives began to emerge.

"Kid, you're not going to plant this seed inside me, are you?"

"Didn't we agree to cooperate?"

"you can not do that!"

"Senior, this seed will be bound to the cause and effect in the past."

"If my senior harbors any ill intentions towards me, this seed will blossom within my senior's karma."

"As for the consequences, you can think about it yourself, senior."

As Xu Chen spoke, he planted the seed into that causal relationship.

As time passed, Xu Chen began to take stock of his gains.

"Senior, you have casually placed so many innate spiritual treasures here, so I gladly accept them."

As Xu Chen spoke, he took out a special lotus-shaped artifact.

"This should be the treasure that you needed, senior."

"Senior, you can now set up your backup plan."

"At that time, I will use the spatial turbulence to banish them to a barren star field," Xu Chen said.

"Good~"

A wisp of causal light, interwoven with black and green, pierced into the lotus-shaped aura.

After finishing, Xu Chen put away the lotus-shaped artifact.

A spatial portal appeared in front of Xu Chen, and Xu Chen returned to the Great Stream Sect Master's world.

They then used a teleportation array to arrive at the main human realm.

The headquarters of the Human Emperor Temple is located within the Qingzhu Secret Realm.

"It's rare for you to come see me. What brings you here?" asked the Great Master Qingzhu, brewing bamboo leaf tea.

"I was just passing by and thought I'd check on how the Great Venerable is doing lately," Xu Chen said, as if greeting an old friend.

"It's alright. The situation in this Star Sea is sometimes good and sometimes bad, but it's much better than before the mist came," said Grand Venerable Qingzhu.

"By the way, my clone can now refine innate spiritual treasures, and has already begun refining innate spiritual treasures for human Grand Venerables."

"Do you need anything from the Temple of the Human Emperor? If so, I'll have my clone expedite it," Xu Chen asked.

"Let's refine the innate spiritual treasures cultivated by these great venerables of the human race first. There's no rush with the Human Emperor Temple." Great Venerable Qingzhu pushed the brewed tea in front of Xu Chen.

"Okay." Xu Chen nodded, preparing to say goodbye and leave.

"Don't leave yet. Do you have some time recently? The Lei Peng Clan has discovered a Saint Venerable's inheritance secret realm. The array and guardian beasts inside are quite powerful, with the highest realm, allowing Great Luo Realm cultivators to enter."

"If you have time, you can go there and split the contents of the secret realm into a 40/60 split after you break through it," said Grandmaster Qingzhu.

"Let's wait a while, I haven't finished dealing with that matter yet."

"Does the Saint Venerable Realm inheritance contain any innate treasures?" Xu Chen asked.

“The Saint Venerable experts of the Thunder Roc Clan have already seen it. If it existed, the inheritance secret realm would have been violently broken open long ago.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Chen nodded.

"I'll go there after I finish this matter."

Xu Chen took his leave and traveled from the Human Emperor Temple headquarters to the future Star Sea Region of the Great Stream Sect via a teleportation array.

They then easily made their way to the area of ​​spatial turbulence.

Having stabilized the spatial rift using a spatial innate spiritual treasure, Xu Chen began his investigation.

Finally, they found a starry sea where even the power of stars was extremely weak, and released the lotus treasure in a slightly disguised form.

"Alright, senior, the task you assigned has been completed."

"Where is my innate treasure, the flying boat?" Xu Chen asked excitedly.

Qianming was quite straightforward, directly sending Xu Chen spatial coordinates and a map of the surrounding stars.

"Take your time searching." Xu Chen sensed the star map in his memory, and then observed the seed of cause and effect he had planted in the river of time.

Xu Chen was relieved to see that no flowers had bloomed.

They then began using spatial turbulence to locate the corresponding star regions.

This search lasted for a thousand years, leading Xu Chen to doubt whether the place even existed.

"Senior, you're not lying to me, are you?" Xu Chen asked again.

"It's just a supreme innate treasure, I'll give it to you. I'm not stingy in this regard." Qianming's lazy voice echoed in Xu Chen's mind.

“I do believe you on that point, senior, but I have been searching for spatial rifts here for a thousand years, and I haven’t found even a familiar star, let alone the same star map,” Xu Chen questioned.

"Don't you know that spatial turbulence has its limits?"

"The coordinates I gave you are extremely remote, so once you find a familiar star, don't hesitate, just travel there."

"Then we'll find the corresponding spatial turbulence in that area, which will make it easier to find the coordinates I mentioned."

Hearing Qianming's words, Xu Chen was so angry he laughed.

"Senior, you deliberately tricked me! Why didn't you say so before?" Xu Chen questioned.

"I saw that this area of ​​spatial turbulence was quite large, and I thought it could lead to that area, so I didn't say much before."

"However, I see that you haven't found it in a thousand years, not even a familiar star, so I should feel that this is the reason." Qianming's tone was like that of a mouse that had stolen some oil.

"You've wasted a thousand years of my life, senior, you have to make it up to me," Xu Chen said. "Tell me about this innate treasure, do you want it?" Qianming Youyou said.

"Okay, then I'll keep looking."

Xu Chen then activated five innate spatial treasures to suppress a larger area of ​​spatial turbulence, accelerating the search.

It took only 600 years to finally find a familiar star.

Xu Chen immediately fixed the spatial passage and crawled inside.

He was in an unfamiliar starry sea, where the surrounding stellar energy was extremely rich, even more so than in the area of ​​the Divine Race where he was located.

“At least one Saint Race member has been born here.” As Xu Chen spoke, his divine sense began to probe the surroundings.

At that moment, a sealing force directly sealed off the space around Xu Chen.

Before Xu Chen could react, he was taken to a secret realm that resembled a cage.

"Unauthorized trespassing within the territory of the Myriad Paths Alliance will result in a ten-thousand-year ban." A completely emotionless voice rang out.

Xu Chen did not reply, but instead looked around at the spatial array that sealed him.

"To be able to transfer me here without my noticing is something even ordinary Saint Venerable experts cannot do, and the innate spiritual treasures I carry did not react at all."

"The Myriad Paths Alliance must have an invincible Saint Venerable Realm expert."

"Have you heard of this name before, senior?" Xu Chen asked in his mind.

"I seem to vaguely remember the Myriad Paths Alliance, but it's been too long, and I don't remember much. Perhaps that part of my memory was lost when I turned into my origin," Qianming said with a puzzled look.

"Let's observe for now."

Xu Chen looked out at the vast, endless darkness outside the spatial array and gently reached out his hand to touch the inner wall of the array.

An invisible wave passed through the formation and spread outwards.

"This area is a prison, and the laws of space are used to expand this world to infinity."

Xu Chen's peculiar fluctuations detected that there were many other imprisoned beings like himself in this space, whose cultivation levels were at least at the Great Luo Realm.

Xu Chen manipulated that special fluctuation to enter the sealing formation of a trapped creature, and directly used the Dream Path to extract its memories.

"Oh, it really is an alliance. There are seven invincible Saint Venerable Realm experts in the alliance. With these seven invincible Saint Venerable Realm experts as the leaders, thousands of major clans joined, and finally the Myriad Paths Sect was formed."

"The strongest thing in the Myriad Paths Sect is the Myriad Paths of Fortune that is gathered by seven invincible Saint Venerable Realm experts and thousands of great clans. Historical records show that the incarnation of the Myriad Paths of Fortune has actually killed an invincible Saint Venerable Realm expert."

"No wonder you were able to bring me here so quietly." Xu Chen's face showed a knowing expression.

"Young man, what's the next step? Are we going to stay here forever or try to escape?" Qianming asked.

"Of course, we need to find a way to get out."

As Xu Chen spoke, he looked up at the endless darkness outside the sealing formation.

"Great fortune of myriad paths, I only stumbled upon this place by chance through the spatial turbulence zone. I did not intend to trespass into your alliance's territory. Could you please make an exception and let me out?" Xu Chen's words spread into the dark area with a special kind of fluctuation.

After waiting for fifteen minutes, Xu Chen still hadn't received a response.

"Great fortune of myriad paths, the great array within your sealed area still has room for improvement. If a powerful expert skilled in array formations were trapped here, he could easily break out." He then released a special wave into the darkness.

This time, Xu Chen received a response.

"To repair the defects in the spatial cage formation and reduce the punishment for a thousand years," a cold and ruthless voice rang out.

"Can the great Qi of Ten Thousand Paths let me out? Because to repair the flaws in this spatial cage array, I need to demonstrate my clan's most secret array inheritance," Xu Chen bargained.

"No."

"Let's reduce it by 9000 years. After all, it wasn't easy for me to learn formations to this extent."

"No."

Xu Chen sighed upon hearing this unyielding voice.

Then I filled in the missing parts.

In the darkness, Xu Chen sensed that this cage could only confine him for nine thousand years.

"Kid, we've used this method, do you have any other options?" Qianming's voice rang out.

"Don't rush me, senior, I'm thinking about it."

Xu Chen used the special fluctuations he emitted to probe the surrounding space, trying to figure out a way to do it.

"Great fortune of all paths, could you give me a chance to atone for my sins?" Xu Chen believed that even if there was no guarantee of success, he should still try his luck first.

Upon hearing this, Xu Chen received a response from the myriad paths of fortune.

This time, many tasks came to mind, all of which were related to the Dao of Arrays.

They either help decipher the secrets of a certain realm or impart an experience in formation techniques to help formation masters who are stuck at a bottleneck break through.

"I also know how to forge weapons."

As soon as Xu Chen finished speaking, another task came to mind.

"Looks like I'll have to be a beast of burden for a while." Xu Chen sighed, then selected a task in his mind to help a Celestial-grade array master break through to the Saint-grade. This task would save him 1000 years.

As Xu Chen accepted the mission, a spatial primordial power enveloped him.

In the Xuan Yu Clan, a woman with an extremely handsome and heroic appearance is waiting for the teacher that the myriad paths of fortune will send to her.

"This time, I must break through to the Saint-grade Array Master level and restore the glory of my Wang family," the woman said firmly.

With a surge of spatial power, Xu Chen appeared in a training ground.

Xu Chen snapped out of his daze and looked down at a woman from another race sitting below.

"Greetings, teacher." The woman bowed respectfully.

"No need to be polite."

"If you are going to advance to the Saint-grade Array Master level, you must have already mastered the Immortal-grade Array Master level. Before I help you break through, I need to examine your foundation first."

Xu Chen gently pointed his index finger towards the void.

In an instant, the entire dojo turned into a dark space.

Then, one after another, the woman was enveloped by a series of powerful formations. These formations were all basic formations among the immortal-grade formations, but what made them different was that they were interlocked, with each formation containing the other. To unravel them all, one would need to have a thorough understanding of these immortal-grade formations and be able to use them freely.

"This great town has 81 layers. If you can solve more than 50 layers, I am confident that you can advance to the Saint-grade Array Master within five years."

"Understanding the sixtieth level will take three years. Reaching the seventieth level will allow for an immediate breakthrough."

As Xu Chen spoke, he gently waved his hand, and the array in the darkness began to slowly activate.

The woman trapped in the center of the formation looked at the traces of its operation and realized that she had encountered an extraordinary teacher.

"Teacher, I will definitely do my best to solve it."

As the woman spoke, she began to break the formation.

The woman easily broke through the first ten levels, but it took her a little longer to break through the tenth to the twentieth level.

Above the thirtieth level, the woman found it somewhat difficult to decipher the code.

Finally, using all her skills, the woman broke the formation and finally stopped at the forty-eighth level.

"Teacher, I've reached my limit."

As the woman's voice rang out, the darkness dissipated and the array dissolved.

"His foundation is a bit weak, but we'll gradually improve it." Xu Chen's voice held a hint of regret. He knew this rotten wood would require at least five years of training before he could advance to a Saint-grade Array Master. (End of Chapter)
