The Treasure Is in Hand! (4K)

The interior of the Divine Maiden's Tomb Chamber is more like an underground palace, and in the middle of the palace sits a stone coffin.

This stone coffin is simple and unadorned.

"It is said that the divine body of the Taihua Goddess is inside the stone coffin."

Lin Qinghan stared at the stone coffin.

Lu Changsheng reached out and placed his hand on the stone coffin.

The stone coffin was made of a similar material to the outer stone wall.

But the stone coffin was completely free of any Talisman seals.

Lu Changsheng had a bold idea.

He circulated his Cultivation Method and then attempted to move the lid of the stone coffin.

What... what are you going to do?

Lin Qinghan was startled by Lu Changsheng's actions.

The body of the Taihua Goddess is buried here!

Lu Changsheng opened the stone coffin, which undoubtedly offended the Taihua Goddess.

"The Divine Maiden's stone coffin is where her divine body is kept; it shouldn't be opened so easily, right?"

Lin Qinghan then realized something.

That doesn't make sense.

How could the stone coffin, where the body of the Taihua Goddess rests eternally, be so easily pushed open?

Creak.

However, something unexpected happened to Lin Qinghan — Lu Changsheng actually pushed the stone cover away!

Lin Qinghan was stunned.

The ancestral stone coffin was thus opened by Lu Changsheng?

Inside the stone coffin lies the divine body of the Taihua Goddess!

Isn't this blasphemy against the divine body?

"Senior Sister, it's just as I imagined, completely empty inside."

Lu Changsheng gestured for Lin Qinghan to step forward.

The stone coffin was indeed empty.

"No, impossible!" Lin Qinghan exclaimed incredulously. "According to the Ancient Books of Taihua Sacred Ground, the Taihua Goddess died a glorious death and was buried in a stone coffin in the Dao Ruins. How could her divine body have disappeared?"

Lin Qinghan stared wide-eyed, but still found nothing in the stone coffin.

The divine body of the Taihua Goddess vanished into thin air.

"Ancient books were also recorded by people. Presumably, those Xiuzhenzhe from the Taihua Sacred Ground back then concealed something."

Lu Changsheng closed the coffin lid.

Inside the Divine Maiden's Tomb Chamber, there appeared to be no more inheritances or treasures.

The whereabouts of the Taihua Goddess remains a mystery.

Judging from the attitudes of the Household Ancestor Lin and Lin Xuantong, they probably didn't know that the Taihua Goddess was not buried in the Tomb Chamber.

"That's truly unbelievable."

Lin Qinghan finally recovered.

This is definitely big news for the Taihua Sacred Ground.

Lu Changsheng then searched the Tomb Chamber for any treasures.

Since we're already here, we can't leave empty-handed, can we?

The Goddess of Taihua was, after all, a powerful figure from the ancient human race; she might have left some magical treasures here.

Suddenly, as if stepping on something, Lu Changsheng saw a hidden compartment in the Tomb Chamber open, and a dark figure rushed towards Lin Qinghan.

Lin Qinghan instinctively reached out to stop him.

A Law Treasure shaped like an oil-paper umbrella fell into Lin Qinghan's hands.

"This is the magical artifact used by the Taihua Goddess to Dao-Proving Law Treasure — the Myriad-Flower Divine Parasol!"

Lin Qinghan was incredibly surprised and gently stroked this ancient artifact that had been dormant for hundreds of millions of years.

Dao Artifact?

Lu Changsheng was secretly amazed by the profound heritage of the Taihua Sacred Ground.

The Tomb Chamber of the Taihua Goddess actually contained magical artifacts used for Dao-Proving Law Treasure as burial goods!

Or is this Law Treasure a treasure left to future generations by the Taihua Goddess?

Etc.

Outside the Tomb Chamber, in the mural depicting the Taihua Goddess battling the World-Destroying Black Dragon, isn't the Law Treasure she uses the Taihua Goddess Myriad-Flower Divine Parasol?

This Law Treasure flew towards Lin Qinghan on its own, presumably to acknowledge Lin Qinghan as its master.

The spirit of Dao Artifact can actively recognize a master.

Lin Qinghan knew this was her destiny to become an immortal, so she began to refine this Dao Artifact.

Although the Myriad-Flower Divine Parasol is Law Treasure of the Dao Artifact level, it had lost its master and then actively sought a new master, so Lin Qinghan could easily refine this Law Treasure.

During the refining of the Myriad-Flower Divine Parasol, Lin Qinghan's Divine Sense entered a wondrous realm.

Surrounded by white mist, a hazy woman appeared and walked towards Lin Qinghan.

Although the two were very close, Lin Qinghan still couldn't make out the other person's features clearly.

The woman then extended a finger and tapped Lin Qinghan 'Lin Qinghan forehead.

Lin Qinghan suddenly woke up.

The Myriad-Flower Divine Parasol lay quietly between her hands.

She has already refined this Dao Artifact.

"Was that afterimage just now... the lingering remnant of the Taihua Goddess?"

Lin Qinghan thought carefully, but still couldn't recall what the other person looked like.

The Divine Maiden touched her forehead, and in that instant, Lin Qinghan had a sudden realization.

Some aspects of the Cultivation Method that had previously puzzled me now became clear.

Most of the Cultivation Method of the Taihua Sacred Ground originated from the Taihua Goddess who founded the Taihua Sacred Ground.

Therefore, with the guidance of the Taihua Goddess, Lin Qinghan's comprehension reached a new level.

"Junior brother, have you discovered anything?"

Lin Qinghan noticed that Lu Changsheng was examining a treasure.

"It's a ring, but I haven't found any use for it."

In the second hidden compartment of the Tomb Chamber, Lu Changsheng found a silver ring that emitted a cool, faint glow, but it had no grade and its function was unknown.

Lin Qinghan obtained the Dao-Proving Law Treasure by the Taihua Goddess in her lifetime in the Divine Maiden's Tomb Chamber, while Lu Changsheng only obtained a ring whose purpose he did not know.

"It seems even Divine Maiden favor their descendants."

Lu Changsheng knew that Lin Qinghan had the bloodline of the Taihua Goddess, so the Taihua Goddess's Dao-Proving Law Treasure would definitely favor recognizing Lin Qinghan as its master.

"It seems there's nothing left here."

Lu Changsheng thoroughly searched the place but couldn't find any other hidden compartments. The stone coffin was also empty, so he had no choice but to return home disappointed.

Lin Qinghan watched as Lu Changsheng thoroughly searched through her ancestors' Tomb Chamber, and something felt off.

The two left the Divine Maiden's Tomb Chamber Tomb Chamber, where Lin Xuantong, the Household Ancestor Lin, Jiang Yu, the Jiang Clan Ancestor, and others were patiently waiting for them to emerge.

"Their aura hasn't grown stronger. Could it be that they haven't received the Divine Maiden's inheritance?"

Jiang Yu was overjoyed.

What he feared most was that Lu Changsheng would enter the Divine Maiden's Tomb Chamber and receive the inheritance of the Taihua Goddess, becoming even more invincible.

The Household Ancestor Lin, Lin Xuantong, the Jiang Clan Ancestor, and others looked at each other in bewilderment.

If there is no inheritance from the Divine Maiden within, then why does the Divine Maiden Dao Ruins repeatedly open?

Is there a lineage for this?

"No."

The Household Ancestor Lin, Lin Xuantong, and others were all stunned.

Surprisingly, there was no successor.

"However, my daughter discovered this treasure in the Tomb Chamber. It has already recognized her as its master."

Lin Qinghan took out the Myriad-Flower Divine Parasol.

This Law Treasure has seven colors. Once opened, it is like a seven-colored auspicious cloud, shining brightly and illuminating a divine realm.

"This... this is the item used by the Taihua Goddess to attain enlightenment! I never imagined it would be placed in her Divine Maiden's Tomb Chamber as a burial item!"

The Household Ancestor Lin, Jiang Clan Ancestor, and Ye Clan Ancestor were all shocked, their eyes filled with fervent admiration as they gazed at the Law Treasure.

The power of the Dao-Proving Law Treasure used by the Taihua Goddess to attain enlightenment is unbelievable!

This Law Treasure can injure even World-Destroying Black Dragon of the Dragon King level!

Lin Xuantong sighed, "This was a very famous Law Treasure from High Antiquity times, but it wasn't obtained by our Taihua Sacred Ground. We thought it had been destroyed or lost, but we never expected it to be buried with the Taihua Goddess. Han'er, you must keep this Law Treasure safe and never let outsiders know about it, otherwise it might bring about your death."

Lin Qinghan knew that this Law Treasure was of great importance, being Dao Artifact Law Treasure, so she nodded, "I'll remember."

The Household Ancestor Lin stroked his beard with satisfaction. "Although the Divine Maiden did not leave any legacy in the Dao Ruins, such a Dao Artifact is priceless."

"Yes."

Both the Jiang Clan Ancestor and the Ye Clan Ancestor couldn't help but be envious of the Dao Artifact that Lin Qinghan had obtained.

Unfortunately, this Dao Artifact has already recognized Lin Qinghan as its master. As long as the artifact spirit remains intact, Lin Qinghan can recite the Mnemonic and the Dao Artifact will return to her hands.

Jiang Yu and Ye Feng, the other Holy Son Candidate, were even more envious.

Lin Qinghan actually obtained a Dao Artifact!

"Changsheng, what have you gained?"

The Household Ancestor Lin was satisfied with Lin Qinghan's gains, and then looked at Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng smiled wryly and took out the seemingly useless ring, "This junior doesn't know what it is either..."

"We old folks are well-traveled and knowledgeable; we've seen more treasures than you've eaten salt. We can definitely recognize their origins. Let us see."

Several patriarchs from the Holy Lands gathered around and examined the ring closely.

For a long time, there was complete silence.

The patriarchs of several Holy Land stared at each other in bewilderment.

Lu Changsheng coughed twice. "Elders, do you recognize this item?"

The Jiang Clan Ancestor said awkwardly, "This item is made of a special material, and as for its origin... we don't know either."

As expected, even the elders didn't know the origin of this ring.

Lu Changsheng had no choice but to keep it for now.

This ring, as a burial item of the Taihua Goddess, must have been no ordinary object.

"There is one more thing I wish to inform Master and all the patriarchs. The stone coffin in the Tomb Chamber is completely empty."

Lu Changsheng recounted what he had seen and heard Tomb Chamber to the elders of the Holy Land and Lin Xuantong.

The patriarchs of the Holy Lands and Lin Xuantong were all dumbfounded.

The Divine Maiden Dao Ruins was actually an empty tomb?!

"Could the Divine Maiden have been buried somewhere else?"

"Strange, all the records in our Taihua Sacred Ground document the burial of the Divine Maiden, how could this be?"

Several patriarchs of the Holy Land and Lin Xuantong could not believe it.

If Lu Changsheng's observation is true, then the matter is of utmost importance.

"This matter must absolutely not be leaked."

Although Lin Xuantong did not understand the reason, he had a vague idea that there might be another hidden story behind this matter.

Suddenly, the Divine Maiden Dao Ruins shook.

"The Divine Maiden Dao Ruins open for only a very short time each time. Once Dao Ruins close, they may never see the light of day again. We must leave quickly."

The Household Ancestor Lin led the group, using Spatial Talisman to quickly approach the entrance to the Divine Maiden Dao Ruins.

Before the Divine Maiden Dao Ruins were completely closed, the Household Ancestor Lin led everyone to Taihua Mountain.

The Household Ancestor Lin's expression was serious. "No one is to mention today's events to any outsiders, understand?"

"Yes!"

Everyone responded and then returned to their respective cave abode to cultivate.

"That's strange, why is it an empty tomb? What exactly happened back then?"

Lin Xuantong was completely baffled.

Even with his level of understanding, he was unable to deduce what happened in High Antiquity times.

Lu Changsheng returned to Yuntai Peak and continued to ponder the ring's purpose.

This ring cannot be refined.

It's also unclear what specific use it might have.

Lu Changsheng couldn't understand the ring's function, so he had no choice but to put it away again.

Lu Changsheng continued to teach disciples and cultivate, improving his own cultivation level.

"Your Saint, I have already purchased a batch of the Demon Bloodstone you requested."

Elder from the Treasure Pavilion brought a Space Ring containing the Demon Bloodstone that Lu Changsheng desired.

This batch of Demon Bloodstone comes from various Holy Lands and Sects.

Lu Changsheng entrusted the Elders of the Treasure Pavilion to acquire it, spending a large sum of money, which is why other Holy Lands and Sects were willing to put it up for trade.

"I wonder how many Demon Bloodstone you acquired, Elder?"

"Not much, only about a thousand yuan."

Hmm... Ah?

Lu Changsheng was surprised that the Elder of the Treasure Pavilion had managed to obtain more than a thousand Demon Bloodstone from other places, far exceeding Lu Changsheng's expectations!

Originally, Lu Changsheng thought that getting a few dozen Demon Bloodstone from the Treasure Pavilion would be quite an achievement.

This is great! The Treasure Pavilion has acquired over a thousand Demon Bloodstone.

With over a thousand Demon Bloodstone now, rewarding my ninth Disciple, Dugu Aotian, should allow me to unlock the hidden rewards.

"This is a reward for the Elders."

The Elders of the Treasure Pavilion helped him collect treasures, and Lu Changsheng didn't take advantage of it for free; instead, he gave them a bag of Medicinal Pills.

How can this be allowed?

"Of course."

"Then Saint very much, Your Majesty."

The Elder of the Treasure Pavilion needed Medicinal Pills to break through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm, so he accepted the Medicinal Pills given to him by Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng obtained over a thousand Demon Bloodstone, which he used to teach disciples.

Because of the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator's reward function, these Demon Bloodstone can return thousands of drops of High Antiquity Demon Marshal's blood.

If a thousand more drops of the Demon Marshal Blood were bestowed upon his ninth Disciple, Dugu Aotian, perhaps the top-grade treasure could be returned.

[Ding! Your Fourth Disciple, Shen Xiaoyao, has advanced from the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm to the Quasi-Emperor Realm. You have received the Disciple's realm advancement reward: Heavenly Fortune Sword.]

[Heavenly Fortune Sword: Merit Law Treasure, suitable for lucky individuals.]

Just as Lu Changsheng was about to summon his ninth Disciple, Dugu Aotian, a prompt appeared on the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator.

Shen Xiaoyao, the Fourth Disciple, has also broken through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

Shen Xiaoyao's whereabouts remain a mystery, and Lu Changsheng also doesn't know where his disciple is now.

"System, simulate Shen Xiaoyao's life."

[Ding, you have begun simulating the life of your Disciple, "Shen Xiaoyao".]

[Ding, today's simulation attempts -1.]

[Simulation begins:]

[Shen Xiaoyao broke through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm and was favored by an old ancestor, who took him in as Personal Disciple.]

[A thousand years later, while wandering in a Forbidden Grounds, Shen Xiaoyao unexpectedly obtained the High Antiquity Cultivation Method, "The Ultimate Sage Heaven and Earth Art."]

[Two thousand five hundred years later, two Xiuzhenzhe at the Initial Immortal Emperor Realm fought fiercely over heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Both perished, and the treasure was picked up by Shen Xiaoyao.]

[Four thousand years later, Shen Xiaoyao was hunted down by the Evil Extremity Sect, but he narrowly escaped death and fled back to Yellow Dragon Mountain.]

[Simulation ended.]

Goodness!

The Fourth Disciple truly lived up to his Child of Destiny, constantly encountering extraordinary adventures and repeatedly escaping death when faced with danger.

Wait, Yellow Dragon Mountain?

In this simulation, place names appeared, and Lu Changsheng learned where Shen Xiaoyao was cultivating.

Tang Ling’er was in seclusion in her cave abode, cultivating, when Lu Changsheng's voice echoed in her mind, "Four thousand years from now, come down the mountain with me, and we'll go find Shen Xiaoyao."
