I, a spoiled young master, conquered the Crown Princess right from the start!

As soon as Chu Feng said this, Yu Ruyi's expression changed. She stared at him warily, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart. She wondered if this person was like them.

Chu Feng ignored Yu Ruyi's changing expression and said directly, "Don't you want to avenge the Nine Heavens Goddess and the disciples of the Nine Heavens Divine Palace who died tragically?"

"Revenge?" Upon hearing this, Yu Ruyi's delicate body trembled, a bitter and helpless look appearing in her eyes. "How could that be... It was the high and mighty imperial clan that destroyed the Divine Palace back then! What can I use to take revenge?"

"So what if they're imperial clans?" A cold glint flashed in Chu Feng's eyes. "They're human too. And humans die."

"I can swear to the Heavenly Dao that when I am strong enough, I will surely annihilate that so-called imperial clan and seek justice for the Nine Heavens Divine Palace!"

"And now, I need the treasure left behind by the Goddess of the Nine Heavens to enhance my strength."

"Don't you want to enter that secret realm to improve your strength?"

"Do you really want to spend your whole life hiding and being hunted down? Do you want the Nine Heavens Divine Palace's legacy to be completely severed?"

Every word Chu Feng uttered struck Yu Ruyi's heart like a heavy hammer.

Looking into Chu Feng's deep and determined eyes, her defenses crumbled little by little.

After a long while, she finally nodded heavily.

"Okay, I'll take you there."

Chu Feng immediately made a vow to Heaven.

Afterwards, he instructed the newly recruited sect experts to return to their respective sects and await his message.

He himself, along with Lao Hei and the Shen family patriarch, flew towards the ruins of the Nine Heavens Divine Palace under the guidance of the jade ruyi.

The once celestial palace, shrouded in divine light and filled with numerous temples, is now nothing but ruins.

The enormous statue lay collapsed on the ground, its appearance eroded beyond recognition by the passage of time.

On the shattered white jade plaza, one can still see deep sword marks and palm prints, as if silently telling the story of the brutality of that battle.

Even after countless years, a faint yet terrifying pressure still lingers over these ruins—the aura of powerful imperial clansmen that persists for a long time.

"What a brutal battle." The demoness's voice rang in Chu Feng's mind, tinged with a sigh. "In these ruins, there are at least dozens of fallen Void God Realm experts, and even a trace of Quasi-Emperor Daoist aura."

Chu Feng was also quite shocked.

It is hard to imagine how magnificent the Nine Heavens Divine Palace must have been during its heyday, given that it is merely a ruin.

Looking at the familiar ruins before her, Yu Ruyi's eyes welled up with tears.

She led Chu Feng and the others through layers of ruins and finally arrived at an extremely secluded mountain wall.

The mountain wall looked unremarkable, indistinguishable from the surrounding rocks.

Yu Ruyi stretched out her slender fingers and gently touched the mountain wall.

A drop of bright red blood seeped from her fingertip and dripped onto the mountain wall.

That drop of blood, as if it possessed a life of its own, instantly merged into the mountainside.

Om-!

The next instant, the entire mountainside began to tremble violently.

Ancient and mysterious golden runes lit up from inside the mountain wall, intertwining to form a huge light gate ten feet high.

Within the gate of light, chaotic energy permeated the air, and celestial mountains and pavilions could be vaguely seen, with thousands of auspicious wisps of energy, forming a stark contrast to the desolate scene outside.

"This is the entrance to the Nine Heavens Goddess's Secret Realm," Yu Ruyi said softly.

Chu Feng nodded and stepped inside first.

The view before me suddenly opened up.

This is a vast and boundless fairyland.

The sky was azure, without a single cloud, and nine suns of different colors hung high in the sky, radiating a soft light.

On the ground, the celestial energy transformed into a tangible white mist, flowing slowly between the mountains and rivers.

Various elixirs, holy medicines, and divine medicines that have long disappeared from the outside world and only exist in ancient records are as common as roadside weeds here.

Several pure white fairy deer with a single antler on each head were drinking water by a stream not far away. When they saw Chu Feng and the others enter, they merely blinked curiously without showing the slightest fear.

"Such...such rich spiritual energy!" The patriarch of the Shen family, who was following behind, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

He greedily inhaled the air, feeling every pore on his body opening up, and the bottlenecks in his body showing signs of loosening.

One day of cultivation here is probably equivalent to a year outside!

A hint of amazement flashed in Yu Ruyi's eyes.

Although she was a descendant of the Divine Palace, this was her first time truly stepping into this legendary secret realm.

Chu Feng's eyes nearly popped out as he looked at the abundance of rare and precious materials scattered around him.

We've struck it rich! We've really struck it rich this time!

Just then, as if sensing something, Yu Ruyi swayed and flew towards the center of the secret realm.

Chu Feng and the others quickly followed.

In the very center of the secret realm stood a complete statue of a goddess, hundreds of feet tall.

The statue's face was exquisitely beautiful, like a pure and immaculate fairy, someone to be admired from afar but not to be touched. She wore a star-patterned robe, held a seven-colored divine sword, and gazed straight ahead, as if staring into endless time and space.

Yu Ruyi arrived at the foot of the statue and knelt down with a "plop," tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.

"Goddess above, your disciple Yu Ruyi is powerless to avenge the Divine Palace, and has failed your legacy..."

She burst into tears.

At that moment, the goddess statue trembled violently without warning!

Immediately afterwards, a soft, seven-colored ray of light shot out from between the statue's eyebrows and entered the body of the jade ruyi.

Yu Ruyi's body was instantly enveloped in a seven-colored glow, and a vast and pure power of inheritance began to frantically transform her body and enhance her cultivation.

Seeing this, Chu Feng did not disturb them. His gaze was drawn to the three ancient jade boxes at the foot of the statue.

He stepped forward and opened the first jade box.

The moment the box was opened, an overwhelming aura of life rushed out!

Inside the box, a single drop of liquid, as clear and translucent as jade, lay quietly.

"It's actually the Fountain of Life!" The Medicine Emperor's voice rang excitedly in Chu Feng's mind. "This is a rare treasure of heaven and earth! Although there's only one drop, it's enough to heal most of the Fire Qilin's fundamental injuries! The rest just needs to be slowly nurtured to fully recover!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng was overjoyed.

It seems that coming to the Nine Heavens Goddess's secret realm was the right decision.

He quickly put away the drop of life-giving essence and then opened the second jade box.

Inside the second box was a pill the size of a longan, golden in color, with nine dragon patterns imprinted on its surface.

"Nine-Turn Divine Pill! Hiss... This is a Quasi-Saint Pill! Swallowing one is enough to raise a Supreme Realm expert by three minor realms out of thin air, and may even allow them to break through to the Saint Realm!" The Medicine Emperor exclaimed again.

Chu Feng's breathing became rapid.

He suppressed his excitement and opened the third jade box.
