Where is the anomaly?

Patterns emerged one after another, but he dismissed them one by one.

Chen Mingxue hesitated for a long time, finally shaking his head with regret, and honestly replied: "I haven't seen anything, not a thing."

"Are you sure you haven't seen anything? If you have seen something, you must tell me. It can change your destiny!" The inquisitor stared closely into his eyes, gravely confirming once again.

"Not seen means not seen! I have no reason to lie." Chen Mingxue looked aggrieved, raising his voice by three degrees.

"Well... alright, come with me!" The Foundation Establishment Cultivator hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stood up, urgently commanding.

Soon after, Chen Mingxue, full of confusion, was brought before Ancestor Zheng Jue.

Seeing the ancestor himself, Chen Mingxue appeared incredibly shocked, trembling so violently that he could hardly stand.

The demeanor of Ancestor Zheng Jue was exceedingly rare as he spoke kindly: "Don't be afraid! Come and take a look at this Jade Plate, what are the patterns on it?"

Chen Mingxue raised his head tremblingly, glanced at the Jade Plate in the ancestor's hand, and quickly bowed his head to respond shakily: "Ancestor, it's... it's spirals... many spirals..."

Upon hearing this, Ancestor Zheng Jue burst into hearty laughter:

"Haha! Finally found one!"

...

Hidden Dragon Pavilion.

After more than half a month, the mansion finally became a bit quieter.

This let the servants in the mansion feel a sense of relief, as they no longer had to work nonstop day and night, nor tremble in fear of making mistakes.

These days, they watched as one notable figure after another, legendarily visited, and saw a great number of Treasures sent to the mansion like flowing water, piling up like mountains in the storeroom.

Seeing such scenes, even the least intelligent and most muddle-headed servant in the mansion knew their master's status was no longer the same as it had been and could be said to have reached the sky in one leap!

In fact, reaching the sky in one leap included Chen Ying, Chen Shuang and seven other wives and concubines, and four children.

The servants didn't know the inner details, but Zhao Sheng would never hide from his own wives. Upon returning home, he immediately informed them of the secret of his success in overcoming the Tribulation and forming the Golden Core.

In this world, nothing is more exciting than this!

Upon returning home for more than half a month, Zhao Sheng dealt with family Gold Core cultivators visiting during the day, and enjoyed blessings of having many wives at night, sleeping for less than eight hours in total!

Faced with voracious ladies, he exerted all his efforts until they were completely conquered, defeated utterly.

That evening, Zhao Sheng suddenly received a Divine Thought from Fei Hong Ancestor, saying he found one.

Zhao Sheng was startled and immediately left the mansion in tunneling light, heading to the enormous tree hollow located at mid-trunk.

At this time in the cave, there were only three Nascent Soul ancestors: Fei Hong Ancestor, Bai Mei, and Zheng Jue. Spirit Lake Ancestor and Shouzhuo Ancestor, being Tree Venerables with heavy responsibilities, had secretly returned to the Divine Tree territory half a month ago, each guarding a region.

Zhao Sheng stepped forward and saluted the three ancestors one-by-one, then turned his gaze onto Chen Mingxue, who was cowering in the corner.

But as soon as he glanced, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he looked rather displeased.

However, Zhao Sheng didn't say much, directly taking out the Jade Plate, skillfully placed the sacrifice, then drew blood to cover the Jade Plate, finally chanting the Summoning Spell.

"吾䭃爥䙷䁕枍...実鵼澬䬕..."

Moments later, a vortex leading to the Burial Immortal Ruins silently formed again.

"You... step forward!" Zhao Sheng shifted his gaze to Chen Mingxue, pointing to the Space-time Vortex, coldly commanding.

Chen Mingxue trembled, then slowly moved toward the Space-time Vortex.

"Touch!" Zhao Sheng coldly spat out a word. To him, this man was completely worthless and couldn't possibly help him even if he had qualities.

He needed a collaborator and assistant, not an "old babysitter" around.

Following instructions, Chen Mingxue slowly stretched out his right hand, his fingertips gently touched the Space-time Vortex.

The next second, he abruptly turned into a stream of light, his entire being absorbed into the vortex in an instant, disappearing.

Zhao Sheng saw this, furrowing his brows deeply, took one step forward, and also crossed over.

As the cave only had the three, Fei Hong Ancestor smiled lightly, asking: "Bai Mei, what do you think of this?"

Bai Mei slowly smoothed his longevity eyebrows, his expression calm as he said: "This is good! Pity the qualifications are too low, and age is somewhat advanced."

"Even with poor qualifications, it doesn't matter! Even if it's through resources, we can raise him beyond the Foundation Establishment Realm. The key is to understand what the so-called 'quality' is?" Ancestor Zheng Jue said, chuckling.

"I hope it isn't some innate talent! I would hate to miss such a significant opportunity." Bai Mei let go of his hands, a pink face briefly showing a trace of worry.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Jue suddenly turned to Fei Hong Ancestor, testing: "Hong Ancestor, I've heard you refined a Divine Wood Avatar a hundred years ago. If it really is some innate talent, would you... use the Parasitic Skill?"

"I would!"

Fei Hong Ancestor's straightforwardness was unexpected, and he questioned in return: "Zheng Jue, are you going to compete with me then...?"

"... Of course not!" Ancestor Zheng Jue immediately answered with a smile.

Bai Mei was just watching quietly, his heart as clear as a mirror, fully aware of Ancestor Zheng Jue's clever calculations.

This person mastered the Corpse Refining Soul Stealing technique, surely planning to secretly refine Chen Mingxue into a living corpse, then inject a wisp of residual soul into the corpse, finally sneaking over borrowed entity.

In reality, Ancestor Zheng Jue's plan was impossible to succeed.

A mere Nascent Soul Mortal Cultivator dared to despite the dangers the Space Immortal Heaven posed, utterly fearless of heaven.

Meanwhile, while the three were engaged in an exchange, two figure suddenly appeared from thin air—it was Zhao Sheng and Chen Mingxue returning.

As soon as Chen Mingxue landed, his face flushed red, his body shaking violently, his cultivation visibly increasing.

Within less than two breaths, the bottleneck confining him for nearly ten years vanished with a boom. His cultivation swiftly rose from Qi Refining Eighth Layer Peak to Qi Refining Ninth Layer.

And continued rising to the Late-stage Ninth Level of Qi Refining, as the spiritual energy surged within him finally settled gradually.

"In...incredible!" Chen Mingxue sensed the surging spiritual power within his body, overwhelmingly excited, his lips trembling as he blurted out three words.

Oh!

Fei Hong Ancestor was astonished by this sight, a glimmer of unusual light flickered in his eyes.

"Tsk tsk, this is obviously spiritual energy infusion! This Burial Immortal Ruins...I truly want to go inside and take a look!" Bai Mei clicked his tongue in amazement.

The phenomenon may seem small, but it tells a lot!

From this mere spiritual energy infusion phenomenon alone, the three Nascent Soul ancestors could discern the explosive abundance of nature's spiritual energy within the Burial Immortal Ruins.

Ancestor Zheng Jue suddenly transformed into an unusually kind demeanor, warmly inviting Chen Mingxue forward, offering a few encouraging words, then presented a few treasures.

In his entire life, Chen Mingxue had never seen such an honor; he was too excited on the spot to speak,

Zhao Sheng walked forward with a cold face, reporting back to the three ancestors.

He then received a mission, which was to expedite Chen Mingxue's learning of the Summoning Spell and all ritual procedures.

That afternoon, a Mr. Chen appeared in the Hidden Dragon Pavilion.

It took half a year before Mr. Chen left the Hidden Dragon Pavilion in disappointment.

Fei Hong Ancestor and the others quickly learned of the bad news: Chen Mingxue's perception was too poor, no matter how it was explained he failed to grasp the content of spells, forgetting them soon after hearing. Extremely disappointing.

Seeing the situation, Fei Hong Ancestor finally made up his mind.

One evening.

The phenomenon may seem small, but it tells a lot!
