"There really are a lot of resources."

After the battle, Qin Chen searched Zongwen Mansion's treasury, even though he had anticipated this.

Nevertheless, the secret stash at Zongwen Mansion still surprised Qin Chen.

Ji Zongwen was indeed swimming in wealth.

Although Qin Chen previously self-destructed the Dragon Elephant Array to level the entire Zongwen Mansion, he had seen beforehand that the treasury was protected by arrays, so nothing inside was damaged.

Thanks to Little Fairy, Qin Chen successfully entered the treasury.

"Guoguo."

Qin Qi, showing a different side from his fierce battle persona, went crazy upon seeing the Spirit Fruits, his eyes filled with excitement.

Wang Shishi also took a fancy to many items beneficial to her.

Qin Chen moved all the remaining resources into the God Devouring Crystal space.

"What is this?"

Qin Chen casually opened a treasure box, inside was a head-sized Crystal Stone emitting a mystical aura of the Great Dao, clearly an extraordinary item.

"This is quite a treasure."

Little Fairy's voice was slightly amazed, "With this, you might be able to attempt to break into the Tongtian Realm."

"What is this item?"

Qin Chen's heart raced upon hearing this.

Of course, he wanted to break into the Tongtian Realm!

But, the Tongtian Realm requires sensing the Great Dao of the Ninth Layer, and right now, the Dark Tree in Qin Chen's Dantian is not yet emitting any sense.

It's like trying to break into the Mind Emperor Realm; without sensing the Mind Emperor's aura, all efforts would be in vain.

Now that Little Fairy informs him this item could help him break into the Tongtian Realm, Qin Chen is naturally thrilled.

If his cultivation reaches the Tongtian Realm, dealing with Han Xiang before would not have been so troublesome.

The engagement party will happen soon, so Qin Chen is indeed doing everything he can to enhance his strength.

Little Fairy said, "Do you remember when I mentioned the Nihility Space to you before?"

Qin Chen nodded.

Nihility Space is a different realm after tearing space, and Qin Chen had once entered it while sneaking into the national treasury of the Great Origin Dynasty, almost encountering a void storm.

"This item comes from within the Nihility Space. Do you say it is precious or not?" Little Fairy said.

"A treasure from within the Nihility Space?"

Qin Chen raised an eyebrow, knowing the Nihility Space to be incredibly dangerous.

This item must be an invaluable treasure.

Little Fairy nodded, "This object is named 'Great Dao Source Crystal,' and it can accelerate a Martial Artist's sensing of the Great Dao of the Ninth Layer."

"Simply put, it opens a gateway for you, leading to the Great Dao of the Ninth Layer."

Qin Chen's breath suddenly halted!

Could there truly be such an item in the world?

Earlier, when Qin Chen helped a strong figure from the Reverse Shadow Sect break into the Tongtian Realm, he deeply ventured into Evil Dragon Canyon to collect Divine Dragon Fruit, but Divine Dragon Fruit merely aids, perhaps even being just a wedge.

It can't compare to the Great Dao Source Crystal!

This Great Dao Source Crystal, Qin Chen needs it tremendously!

For a moment, Qin Chen's blood was boiling within him.

Little Fairy said, "Qin Chen, I have to tell you, sensing the Great Dao of the Ninth Layer isn't as difficult as it seems."

"There are two circumstances where it's challenging."

"The first one is insufficient aptitude, which is why many people remain stuck at the Ninth Layer of the Primordial Flower Realm for a lifetime."

"The second one is having exceptional aptitude."

"Many evildoers find sensing the Great Dao of the Ninth Layer exceedingly difficult, but once sensed, their Great Dao is destined to be extraordinary."

Qin Chen rejoiced, "Are you implying that I belong to the latter?"

Little Fairy pouted, "How can you be so sure you're the latter? But honestly, I'm curious about what your Great Dao will be."

"Other Martial Artists at the Primordial Flower Realm have a Primordial Flower within their Dantian, unlike you who have a tree, a Dark Tree."

"I'm unsure what type of Great Dao you'll choose once you sense the Great Dao of the Ninth Layer, and what will happen."

Qin Chen pondered for a moment, "I'm looking forward to it myself."

Others have a Primordial Flower, while he has a tree.

That indeed is unusual.

Whether this is a blessing or a curse, he doesn't know.

"There are only two days left, if I can sense the Great Dao of the Ninth Layer thanks to this Great Dao Source Crystal and break into Tongtian Realm, it will certainly bring a qualitative change for me."

Qin Chen's eyes burned brightly.

The Tongtian Realm and the Primordial Flower Realm are like night and day.

After emptying Zongwen Mansion's treasury resources, Qin Chen left Zongwen Mansion.

Meanwhile.

Ji Zongwen happened to be leading a few friends to visit Zongwen Mansion.

Along the way, with great fanfare, they chatted and laughed amidst royal pupils.

"Eldest Prince will surely be endlessly glorious in the future. Although the Spirit God Clan has declined, they remain the foremost ancient clan in our Great Star Dynasty, firmly rooted and deeply influential."

Among the royal pupils, talented disciples from major forces congratulated Ji Zongwen.

Ji Zongwen waved his hand and smiled, "My heartfelt love for Song Yun is genuine, the rest is secondary."

Upon hearing this, everyone knew it was empty words.

But naturally, no one present wanted to upset Ji Zongwen by exposing him, so they praised him as sincere and noble.

Suddenly, the carriage driver seated outside noticed the leveled Zongwen Mansion, and was momentarily dumbfounded, "Your Highness, it seems we've taken the wrong route."

Ji Zongwen frowned, "Wrong route? I've traveled this route nearly a thousand times, how could we have taken the wrong route."

He lifted the curtain of the royal carriage and glanced casually outside.

Suddenly.

He seemed struck by lightning!

"What's wrong with Eldest Prince?"

The royal disciples in the carriage were quite surprised to see Ji Zongwen's expression.

They also lifted the royal carriage curtain to peek outside.

At this moment.

A crowd was gathered at the remains of Zongwen Mansion.

Many pointed and remarked on the mansion, now a ruin.

"What's going on? Are my eyes deceiving me? Where is Zongwen Mansion?"

"I just came here a few days ago, I'm certain it was right here, how has it turned into ruins?"

"Did we really take the wrong route?"

They momentarily felt mentally blocked.

Ji Zongwen stepped out from the royal carriage.

"Eldest Prince!"

"Greetings, Eldest Prince!"

Seeing Ji Zongwen step out of the royal carriage, the crowd hurriedly paid their respects.

Ji Zongwen coldly glared at the ruin of the once glorious Zongwen Mansion, those eyes were so fierce that no one dared to meet his gaze!

Zongwen Mansion was his residence; he certainly knew if the route was wrong!

The ruins in front of him were Zongwen Mansion!

"What happened?! Can anyone tell me what happened?!!"

Usually gentle, Ji Zongwen suddenly appeared furious today, his face contorted; who, who dared to destroy his Zongwen Mansion?!

Many had never seen Ji Zongwen lose composure like this before, and timid ones trembled with fear. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

A servant from Zongwen Mansion trembled as he stepped forward, "Reporting to Eldest Prince, just now, three unknown figures appeared at Zongwen Mansion, eventually flattening it."

The royal pupils behind Ji Zongwen were shocked upon hearing this. Who the hell went crazy?!
