The liver is a late bloomer!

Xu Chen stood outside the territory of the Evil Dan Clan, quietly sensing the cause and effect within the entire Evil Dan Clan.

Knowing that the strongest Saint Venerable was connected to the powerful figures above the Great Dao, Xu Chen dared not delve deeper into this connection.

However, he can detect the cause and effect within the entire Akdan clan and predict whether it will affect him in the future.

"The Evil Dan Clan has gone astray; the cause and effect are so chaotic and noisy, involving many things."

In Xu Chen's eyes, the karma within the Evil Dan Clan was like a giant dye vat of various bacteria, extending outwards to the endless void, connecting to inextricable sources of sin and karma.

"Will this incident implicate powerful figures at the Invincible Saint Venerable Realm?" asked the Profound Cauldron Saint Venerable, who was stationed outside the Evil Pill Clan.

"There is no Invincible Saint Venerable."

Xuan Ding Saint Venerable immediately showed a relieved expression.

"But it involves a powerful figure on the Great Dao."

"Ah!" Xuan Ding Saint Venerable exclaimed in surprise.

"But it shouldn't have much of an impact."

Xu Chen withdrew his Great Dao Divine Power for detecting cause and effect.

"It's like you planted crops, and a bird pecked away a grain of wheat; you'd probably be too lazy to chase after it."

"No, if it were me, I would chase after them."

"You think you can just take what's mine and leave?" Xuan Ding Saint Venerable said matter-of-factly.

"Then this bird might be a pet of some other powerful person."

"Then forget it." Xuan Ding Saint Venerable looked at Xu Chen thoughtfully.

"The stellar energy in this star sea is quite good. After we wipe out the Evil Pill Clan, should we place a branch of the human race here? Many things are readily available; we can just modify them and use them."

Xu Chen looked at the main ship of the Evil Pill Clan in the core area, which was three-tenths larger than the main world of the human race.

“This area is deeply entangled in karma and embodies the racial will of the Evil Dan Clan, so it’s probably not a good place to set up a branch.”

"Once the Great Dao of Humanity has absorbed the will of this individual race, the abundant stellar energy here can be transferred to the branch over there," Xuan Ding Saint Venerable explained to Xu Chen.

"That's it~"

"Your Majesty, please stay here and continue guarding the place. I'll head back now."

After Xu Chen finished speaking, he prepared to take his leave.

"Wait~"

"I'll take these nine innate treasure embryos back with me and ask you to refine them with your clone."

Nine innate treasure embryos appeared before Xu Chen.

What caught Xu Chen's attention the most was a seedling of innate treasure level, which could be refined into an innate treasure or cultivated into a divine tree of innate treasure level.

"This is a sapling of a divine tree of the primordial type. If it is properly nurtured, the fruit it bears should be able to restore one's original nature," Xuan Ding Saint Venerable said, noticing Xu Chen's gaze.

"This is good. I'll keep it and nurture it into a divine tree."

Xu Chen waved his hand to store the nine innate treasures into his spatial storage, and then used the Star Teleportation Technique to leave.

In the world of the Great Stream Sect Master, Xu Chen met Su Yueyao as soon as he returned.

"My lord, when the Mystic God was traveling among the human race, he was completely fooled by a little girl." Su Yueyao couldn't wait to tell Xu Chen about their son.

"Oh, what's going on?" Xu Chen asked curiously.

"The Mystic God traveled among the human race and, in a world of great venerables, stumbled upon a secret realm, which the little girl also discovered at the same time."

"The two of them ventured into the secret realm together, but our Xuan Shen had just gone out to travel and had too little experience. They were completely fooled by that little girl and ended up being assigned a bunch of junk, which they found quite amusing."

"When that little girl saw Xuan Shen like that, she thought he was a second-generation star from some family, so she kept pestering Xuan Shen and was cheated out of a lot of things."

Su Yueyao was about to tell Xu Chen in detail about the methods of the little girl beside Xu Xuanshen, and Xu Chen's lips curled up slightly as he listened.

"However, Xuan Shen also noticed it later, but what the little girl had tricked him about was insignificant in his eyes. He just kept her around for fun." Su Yueyao squinted, her expression full of anticipation for what would happen next.

"That's interesting. Don't worry about it, we'll encounter what we're meant to encounter eventually."

"Human life is full of suffering. If you don't understand it, you might have to experience some of it. Let the Mystic God do whatever he wants," Xu Chen said leisurely.

The World of the Great Venerable of Heavenly Sand.

Xu Xuanshen and a pretty young girl were strolling across a boundless desert.

This desert is called the Forbidden Immortal Desert. Any powerful being below the Golden Immortal level who enters the desert will be transformed into a mortal. At the very center of the desert, there is a Yellow Sand Dojo. By walking through the desert in a mortal body and entering the Yellow Sand Dojo, one can gain an enlightenment by chance.

The two of them, each carrying a large backpack, walked briskly through the vast, yellow sandy desert.

"Young Master Xuan, how much further do we have?" The pretty girl looked at the vast desert with a pained expression.

"We estimate there are still more than 500,000 li to go. We need to speed up, otherwise the water and food we carry won't last until then."

Xu Xuan walked quickly through the desert, feeling the intense heat.

“Young Master Xu, your cultivation techniques are all top-notch, why suffer like this?”

“Unlike me, my family…” the delicate-looking girl said, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Ye Xiu, wipe your tears. If you can't come up with any new tricks for deception, then forget it," Xu Xuanshen said leisurely, looking ahead. He knew that the little girl beside him had been deceiving people, but in his eyes, what she had cheated out of was about the same value as roadside trash.

Seeing how hard the little girl had tried to perform for him, Xu Xuanshen felt that giving her some trash wouldn't be too much, so he kept her by his side.

"Everything I told you before is true. Unlike you second-generation immortals, I wasn't born with the best resources."

"Back in my day, my parents..."

"You've already told me the version of your parents' death six times. Are you sure you want to tell it a seventh time?"

The two walked and talked until they reached their limit of annoyance, finally sitting down on a sheltered sand dune. Xu Xuanshen took two water bottles filled with water from his backpack and handed them to Ye Xiu.

"You can only drink half."

Ye Xiu took out a large flatbread from her backpack, broke it in half, and gave one half to Xu Xuanshen.

"Then I'll choose another one. Back in the day, my brother and I..."

A tragic and desolate story slowly unfolds before Xu Xuanshen.

As Xu Xuanshen ate his pancakes and drank his water, he listened intently, his mind unconsciously recalling Xu Chen's teachings, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

"The story is good; if it were true, it would certainly win my sympathy."

"Is this trick worth a Dao artifact?" Ye Xiu blinked her innocent big eyes as she looked at Xu Xuanshen.

Mr. Xu, who was eating a pancake, looked at Ye Xiu.

"It's alright, I'll give you the artifact after we get out of this desert~"

After replenishing their energy, the two continued their journey.

"With your qualifications, you could easily join a decent sect, so why don't you go?" Xu Xuanshen suddenly asked. He already knew about Ye Xiu's background; she was indeed a woman from an ordinary family.

"I have high aspirations and am unwilling to join an ordinary sect."

"Over the years, I have painstakingly accumulated resources, even at the cost of my conscience, all for the sake of going to the sect I admire most."

Ye Xiu's eyes sparkled with anticipation.

"A sect you admire?" Xu Xuanshen had a vague guess in his mind.

"The Great Stream Sect, the strongest sect among humans, I would be satisfied even if I were just to become an outer disciple!"

"When did the Great Stream Sect become the strongest sect among humans?" Xu Xuanshen's expression shifted slightly.

"Don't you know? It's been like this for a long time!"

"It is rumored that once you enter the Great Stream Sect, you won't be able to spend all the annual salary of an outer disciple, not to mention the cultivation holy land within the Great Stream Sect and the daily benefits of disciples."

"That legendary Second Elder of the Great Stream Sect is the strongest warrior of our human race, capable of fighting against a Saint Venerable while only at the Great Venerable level."

"He single-handedly developed what was once a minor clan in a single state into what it is today."

Ye Xiu mysteriously moved closer to Xu Xuanshen.

"Rumor has it that the Great Stream Sect is now stronger than our main world, but the Great Stream Sect has always regarded our main world as superior."

“That person is only at the Great Venerable Realm, yet he already possesses such power. What will he be like when he advances to the Saint Venerable Realm? Therefore, I must raise the teleportation fee to the Great Stream Sect region.”

Xu Xuanshen looked at Ye Xiu's determined expression.

“Although your aptitude is not bad, the Great Stream Sect has stricter requirements for humans from other regions. They will not accept those whose aptitude is too low or too high.”

"You happen to be in the middle, but you want to pass the outer gate assessment."

Xu Xuanshen looked Ye Xiu up and down, smiled, and said nothing more.

"And then? I want to take the outer sect assessment, what do you say!" Ye Xiu looked at Xu Xuanshen nervously.

"Not very good, let's hurry on our way!"

At this moment, in the void above the desert, Xu Chen looked at Xu Xuanshen with a smile on his face.

"This child is like me~"

After Xu Chen finished speaking, he vanished into the depths of the void.

At the very edge of the Myriad Races Main Realm, the army of the Tiger Hunting Clan is besieging a colossal beast that has reached the Immortal Realm.

Xu Qiangjia was outside the battlefield, and a phantom of the battlefield appeared in front of him. He quickly manipulated the phantom with one hand to mobilize the army.

"Ground defense, offense and defense, pre-disbandment plans, and air force deployment are all glaringly obvious!"

"The Thunder Department's Three-Colored Divine Thunder is ready; prepare to fire in ten breaths!"

"Wind and Sand Divisions, turn defense into offense!"

Under Xu Qiangjia's command, the 100,000-strong army of Guixu Realm displayed the beauty of battle formations.

Xu Chen appeared in the void, quietly admiring the battle formation below.

At this moment, Xu Qinhu stood beside Xu Qiangjia, carefully observing every step of the battle formation changes and the state of the battlefield.

While directing the battle, Xu Qiangjia explained in detail to Xu Qinhu how he would proceed with this step.

In Xu Chen's eyes, the war was practically broken into pieces, softened, and stuffed into Xu Qinhu's mouth.

"Grandparents definitely love their grandchildren more!"

"This wasn't the attitude they had when they taught me as a child!"

Xu Chen's face showed a hint of nostalgia.

After being slaughtered for half a day by an army of 100,000 cultivators at the Void Returning Realm, the giant beast from the Ascension Realm finally collapsed on the ground.

"It's a pity that this Immortal Realm behemoth isn't strong enough to perform a powerful battle formation, but it's enough for your studies." Xu Qiangjia said, glancing up in the direction of Xu Chen.

"How much of the formation I just demonstrated did you understand?"

"Senior, I understand nine-tenths of it, but there is still one part I don't understand."

"There were several times when you clearly had the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow, why didn't you strike then?" Xu Qinhu asked.

"I prefer to command battles perfectly. If I were to take risks, I could certainly kill the behemoth, but I might lose several soldiers in the process. Then, the battle wouldn't be perfect," Xu Qiangjia said with a smile, his face showing great patience. (End of Chapter)
