Extracting all things: My attributes grow infinitely.

"These...are all source matter?"

Qin Tianheng stepped out of the crowd, and with trembling hands, carefully cupped a ball of dark golden light.

The light was slightly warm to the touch, and countless tiny runes were faintly visible flowing within it, radiating a pulsating energy that made the magical power within his body boil.

Jiang Chuan nodded: "I brought some back with me; it should be enough for all the current eighth-tier professionals in the human race to break through."

A collective gasp of astonishment rippled through the square.

A powerful being who has ascended to godhood.

For hundreds of years, not a single one of these has appeared in the entire human race.

Now, Jiang Chuan has casually brought back a massive amount of source essence, enough for all eighth-tier professionals in the entire Federation to break through!

Those who were still in a daze suddenly woke up.

This is not a dream!

because,

Dreams can't be that far-fetched!

Zhou Tianyan's hands trembled violently. He slowly walked to the small mountain of source material, reached out and touched the orbs of light that emitted dark golden light. Suddenly, tears welled up in his cloudy old eyes that he could not stop.

"God bless humanity... God bless humanity!"

He turned around, about to kneel before Jiang Chuan, his voice choked with emotion: "General Jiang, you are the benefactor of the human race! I... I kowtow to you on behalf of the entire human race!"

Jiang Chuan pulled him up, a hint of helplessness on his face: "Marshal, what are you doing? I am also a member of the human race, and these things are simply my duty."

Zhou Tianyan wiped away his tears, his cloudy old eyes churning with too many emotions.

There was relief, gratitude, excitement, and a hint of something he himself was unwilling to admit…

sorrow and grief.

decades.

For decades, the human race has been barely surviving between the Corpse Dog Clan and the Blood Cat Clan, bullied like pigs and dogs by other races. As the Marshal of the Heavenly Pavilion, the first thing he does every day when he opens his eyes is to check how many people have died in the military report.

The despair of helplessness, the pain of watching humanity slide step by step into the abyss—those who haven't experienced it will never understand.

But now, all of that is about to change completely.

Jiang Chuan did not linger in the square. He put Qin Tianheng in charge of the allocation of the source material, and then pulled Zhou Tianyan away from the crowd.

"Marshal, take me to the Origin Station."

Zhou Tianyan was taken aback for a moment, then quickly nodded, "Alright! I'll take you there right away!"

The two passed through the underground passage of Star Crown Academy and arrived once again at the forbidden area that the Federation had classified as top secret.

The gray-white platform still stands there quietly.

The mottled railway tracks stretched into the darkness, and the three large characters "Origin Station" on the crooked station sign standing at the edge of the platform had become blurred and difficult to recognize under the erosion of time.

Everything is exactly the same as when I last came.

Jiang Chuan walked to the station, clutching a full twenty-two taels of immortal coins in his hand.

I felt incredibly uneasy.

He didn't know if the money would be enough to buy a train ticket.

If he can't afford it, even if he has already taken control of the Origin Realm and digs the entire Origin Realm three feet deep, he may not be able to find even half a piece of Immortal Essence.

Are you really sure?

Zhou Tianyan stood behind him, his tone revealing a hint of barely concealed nervousness.

Although he didn't know what Jiang Chuan had experienced in the center of the Origin Realm, judging from the mountain of Origin Matter, what this young man had done was far beyond his comprehension.

Jiang Chuan didn't say anything, but walked to the empty ticket window.

He took out his immortal essence and placed it inside. The surface of the table trembled slightly, and a warm, jade-like light slowly shone forth.

Please select a destination.

A monotone, mechanical voice echoed through the station.

Immediately afterwards, a light screen appeared above the table, displaying a dense array of station names.

Jiang Chuan's gaze swept over the station names one by one.

Tianzhang Station, Yuanxu Station, Biluo Station, Qingming Station... Each name represents a world, and each name was once a glorious testament to the ancient cultivation civilization.

At this moment, most of these station names are gray, with only a very few still glowing with a dim light.

Jiang Chuan's gaze finally settled on the name at the very top.

Tianzhang Station.

Ticket price: 15 yuan.

Fifteen yuan.

A huge weight lifted from Jiang Chuan's heart. Thankfully, he could afford it!

Jiang Chuan inserted fifteen yuan into the ticket machine, and a line of text immediately appeared on the screen:

[Tickets have been issued, please keep them safe.]

The ticket dispenser below the machine ejected a palm-sized hard ticket, entirely black, with two ancient human characters engraved on its surface in silver patterns:

Tianzhang.

Jiang Chuan flipped the ticket over; on the back was a miniature star map, with countless tiny points of light slowly flowing within it. One of these points of light was shimmering with a faint golden glow, which should be the location of the Origin Station.

He had just put his ticket away when a cold, emotionless mechanical voice came from the loudspeaker above the ticket machine: "The next train is about to arrive. Passengers, please wait behind the safety line on the platform."

Jiang Chuan's spirits lifted.

I walked quickly to the edge of the platform behind the faded yellow safety line.

Zhou Tianyan subconsciously followed, but Jiang Chuan stopped him with a raised hand: "Marshal, this train goes to the Heavenly Chapter Realm. For those who haven't tempered their bodies, the immortal light permeating the air alone is enough to be fatal. You can't go up there."

Zhou Tianyan was stunned for a moment, then smiled wryly and took two steps back.

He didn't ask "What is the Heavenly Chapter Realm?" or "What is Body Tempering?"

Because he had already discerned something from Jiang Chuan's tone.

This young man has now reached a level far beyond what he could ever comprehend in his entire life.

Jiang Chuan stood on the platform, his gaze fixed on the darkness in the direction the railway tracks stretched out.

Time passed by, second by second.

An hour has passed.

Two hours have passed.

The station remained eerily silent.

Without the roar of wheels rolling over the rails, and without the long wail of a train whistle piercing the darkness, he couldn't help but become a little impatient.

Could it be that this teleportation system has been completely abolished by the ancient cultivators?

It's completely unusable!?

if so.

Even if he managed to buy a train ticket, he wouldn't be able to get to the Heavenly Chapter Realm!

Jiang Chuan took a deep breath. His patience was much better now than when he first awakened. Besides, he had no other choice but to wait here!

In the blink of an eye.

A full two weeks have passed.

During this period, the three women visited each other to help Jiang Chuan alleviate some of his loneliness. Zhou Tianyan also visited several times to report on the progress of the source material allocation.

As for the matter of the entire clan relocating.

It involves too many aspects.

The Tiange Pavilion is currently holding meetings and discussions every day.

On the sixteenth day, Jiang Chuan opened his eyes. He didn't look at the railway tracks again, but stood up and walked out of the station without looking back.

After leaving the Origin Station, Jiang Chuan did not stay in Tianque City, but instead transformed into a streak of azure light and sped towards the direction of Rift Soul Abyss.

He remembers it very clearly.

I once saw that old-fashioned steam train, completely black, at the bottom of the Soul Rift Abyss. It carried carriages full of powerful warriors from various races who looked like living dead, traveling along the tracks at the bottom of the abyss towards the unknown depths.

That railway track and the track at the origin station are very likely the same line.

If we can't find a train at the Origin Station, we might be able to find some clues at the Soul Rift Abyss.
