After confirming the location of the ruins with Mu Qingling, Chen Changsheng set off immediately.
Although, according to Mu Qingling, the ruins were located in an extremely remote area, Chen Changsheng was still worried about unexpected accidents.
Of course, before heading to the ruins, Chen Changsheng also took the time to sweep through the scripture pavilions of the other ten Golden Core-tier factions in the Great Yan Nation.
Although many of the cultivation methods and secret manuals among the factions were duplicates, resulting in fewer points than he had imagined, by the time Chen Changsheng finished sweeping through these Golden Core factions, his points had still reached a massive twenty million.
And this had only taken Chen Changsheng three days, with most of that time spent traveling and concealing his presence.
With him uploading so many cultivation methods and secret manuals, the chat group's store could now be considered a genuine cultivation world marketplace.
Over these three days, the members of the chat group had all fallen into a state of shock. Even Luo Hao, a God Slayer, was frightened by the massive volume of cultivation methods and secret arts Chen Changsheng had uploaded.
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Wuwuwu! @Innate Wife-Taking Physique Boss! Boss, why haven't you noticed me yet! Does this chat group have a world-crossing function or not?! I really want to meet the boss soon! To tell the boss that I don't want to work hard anymore!]
[Kashiwagi Eri: Xiaoxiao, don't be like this. The boss definitely has more important things to do. You'll only cause trouble for him acting like this.]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Eriri, your words remind me of the green tea bitches from my past life. Tell the truth! Don't you want the boss to notice you too? He has at least twenty million points on hand right now! Twenty million! Just a fraction of that would let me upgrade my ability to the second tier!]
[Kashiwagi Eri: Xiaoxiao, don't talk nonsense! I know what a green tea bitch means in China! I'm not a green tea bitch! (Angry.jpg)]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Fine, fine, of course I know you're not green tea. I just feel... sigh...]
Chen Changsheng watched the two girls chatting in the group, feeling that Gu Xiaoxiao, a transmigrator, was a bit too lacking in ambition.
Every day she just liked to suck up to him when she had nothing to do. Did she not want to improve her strength at all?
[Innate Wife-Taking Physique: @Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby, Kashiwagi Eri's world doesn't have much danger, so I can understand her, but didn't you say before that your world is full of crises? Then why do I always see you just chatting away in the group?]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: QAQ, the boss finds me annoying, crying.]
However, after joking around for a bit, Gu Xiaoxiao began to explain.
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Boss, it's not that I don't want to improve my strength, but in our world, improving strength relies entirely on supernatural abilities. Whatever level your ability is, that's your strength cap. It's incredibly difficult to improve.]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: My ability is C-rank Spatial Teleportation. I've already developed it to its absolute limits, yet it only barely gets a Tier 1 rating in the chat group. I'm in despair too!]
To be honest, Chen Changsheng was quite surprised when he saw Gu Xiaoxiao mention that her ability was Spatial Teleportation. This kind of ability was practically a bug-level existence. One must know that even he hadn't come into contact with spatial powers yet.
[Innate Wife-Taking Physique: Can't you practice cultivation methods in your world?]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: We don't have battle aura here for battle aura methods, so I can't practice them at all. Sister Luo Hao did send me a martial arts method, but with my aptitude, even if I practiced it for decades, I'd only be comparable to a C-rank ability user in my world. It's simply not worth my time to practice!]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Hehehe, how about you gift me an immortal cultivation method, Boss?]
Gu Xiaoxiao finally revealed her true intentions.
Everything she had said before was all for this very moment.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled helplessly, having seen through Gu Xiaoxiao's little scheme.
However, he was indeed quite curious about the so-called supernatural abilities of Gu Xiaoxiao's world.
He felt that the abilities in that world might be similar to the special physiques of the cultivation world.
Perhaps they would be of great use to him in the future.
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Boss! I'm begging you! When I make something of myself in the future, I will definitely repay you! Image.jpg, Image.jpg, Image.jpg]
As Gu Xiaoxiao spoke, she even sent three images in a row.
Chen Changsheng curiously clicked to view them, and his eyes were instantly glued to the screen.
In the pictures was a black-haired girl wearing nothing but a pure white dress shirt that barely covered the base of her thighs, her legs tightly wrapped in black pantyhose.
The girl was extremely beautiful, and coupled with this seductive modern outfit and the pleading expression on her pretty face, it made Chen Changsheng's heart flutter a little.
The cultivation world didn't have things like black pantyhose.
Could he perhaps ask for some black and white pantyhose from Gu Xiaoxiao or Kashiwagi Eri, and have his own beauties try them on later?
[Kashiwagi Eri: Hey! Xiaoxiao, could you not do this! Where is your dignity! Your dignity!]
Eriri almost couldn't bear to watch anymore, but just as she finished complaining, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened a fraction in the next moment.
[Innate Wife-Taking Physique sent a private red envelope to Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby]
[Gu Xiaoxiao claimed the red envelope and received "Mingyu True Art"]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Thank you, Boss! Love you! Mwah!]
[Kashiwagi Eri: ...]
[Kashiwagi Eri: Image.jpg, Image.jpg, Image.jpg, Image.jpg, Image.jpg]
[Yunlan Sect Master: Eriri, you...]
[Kashiwagi Eri: Cough, cough, I clicked... clicked the wrong thing.]
She said she clicked the wrong thing, but there was absolutely no sign of her wanting to recall the messages.
Chen Changsheng looked at the words of the two clowns in the group, shook his head in amusement, and casually sent another copy of the Mingyu True Art to Eriri.
After all, it had been a long time since he had seen a shy, blonde, twin-tailed beautiful girl.
Anyway, he had already sold the Mingyu True Art once, so he didn't care too much about it.
As for whether Palace Master Mingyu would be angry if she found out he was giving away her Mingyu Palace's core sect manual like common cabbages?
Chen Changsheng figured he would just step in and handle it.
With a massive fortune of twenty million points in hand, Chen Changsheng didn't stay idle. While chatting with Gu Xiaoxiao and Eriri in the group, he had also arrived at the ruins' location that Palace Master Mingyu had told him about.
"It really is remote. Who would have thought that a secret realm of the Joyous Union Sect would be hidden in a place like this?"
Chen Changsheng looked at the inconspicuous little pool of water in front of him, completely unable to imagine how Palace Master Mingyu and her friend had discovered this place.
Could it be that they had wanted to take a bath at the time and discovered it by accident?
After teasing Palace Master Mingyu in his mind, Chen Changsheng did not hesitate and leaped down into the pool.
As soon as he plunged into the water, Chen Changsheng discovered the extraordinary nature beneath the pool.
Just like the Tale of the Peach Blossom Spring, the seemingly ordinary pool outside suddenly opened up into a vast expanse after he descended several thousand meters.
Below was actually a massive, artificially excavated underground space.
He didn't know what principle was at work, but despite being thousands of meters underground, the subterranean space was as bright as day.
With Chen Changsheng's extraordinary eyesight, he effortlessly took in the entire layout of the underground space at a single glance.
This place must have once been a crucial secret realm of the Hehuan Sect. Even after the passage of a millennium, Chen Changsheng could still make out the remnants of what used to be a dense forest of palaces.
Alas, the ravages of time spared nothing. The once-prosperous secret realm and its majestic palaces had all been reduced to a desolate expanse of ruins.
However, amidst the rubble, Chen Changsheng noticed the single remaining object in the entire secret realm that was still perfectly intact.
It was a tiger-shaped demonic beast puppet, measuring several zhang in length.
