Thirty-Three Heavens Sand in hand, there were no further opportunities to be had.

Chen Ku didn't hesitate any longer. With a leap, he returned directly to Jie Yin and Zhun Ti's side.

At this time, Jie Yin and Zhun Ti had already collected an astonishing amount of Star Sand.

Seeing this, Chen Ku smiled and said, "Hehe, it seems that Master and Uncle-Master have also gained quite a bit."

Hearing this, Jie Yin also smiled and responded, "Although this Star Sand can't be considered too precious, it's abundant beyond measure."

"We can be said to have made a worthwhile trip."

Indeed!

The sheer quantity of Star Sand compensated for its slightly lower grade, preventing Jie Yin from being too disappointed.

Meanwhile, Zhun Ti, somewhat curious, retorted, "You brat, you turned a blind eye to the Star Sand and wandered around for so long."

"Did you find some great opportunity?!"

As he spoke, Zhun Ti sized up Chen Ku.

Hearing these words, Chen Ku laughed inwardly, but his face remained impassive, even feigning a bitter expression.

"Alas, it's tough..."

"Uncle-Master has seen it too. Apart from this endless Star Sand, there are no other opportunities to be found in the Outer Heavens."

"This disciple has also returned empty-handed."

Chen Ku thought that if he revealed the matter of obtaining the Thirty-Three Heavens Sand, his Zhun Ti Uncle-Master would undoubtedly pester him again, demanding all sorts of things.

The thought of Zhun Ti's disregard for image, even to the point of being somewhat "subservient," gave Chen Ku a headache.

Therefore, he didn't tell the truth at the moment.

As for comprehending the great divine art, his heaven-defying comprehension was his greatest trump card and secret, so naturally, he couldn't tell Jie Yin and Zhun Ti either.

However, hearing his words, Zhun Ti seemed skeptical, continuing to scrutinize Chen Ku.

He had long experienced the "shamelessness" of his nephew.

Could this kid be hiding something from them, hogging all the good stuff?!

After a long while, Zhun Ti didn't see anything unusual on Chen Ku's face.

Just then, Jie Yin continued to speak.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter!"

"This Outer Heavens is originally a place no one has set foot in, so it's expected that there are no opportunities."

"Since that's the case, we should return."

Clearly, Jie Yin deeply believed Chen Ku's words.

Hearing these words, Zhun Ti and Chen Ku both nodded, without any objection.

The three of them stepped out of the Outer Heavens and returned to the top of Buzhou Mountain.

Then, they headed down the mountain.

This time, Chen Ku didn't discover any more great opportunities.

However, one day, as the three were traveling, Chen Ku's gaze suddenly flickered.

Before them, on a mountainside, faint divine glows were faintly visible, and an indescribable, mystical aura lingered, surpassing the previously acquired Innate Jiaoli Tree and other treasures by more than one level.

In an instant, Chen Ku's thoughts surged, and a strange premonition arose.

This place was where the Innate Gourd Vine had grown in the past.

That was a veritable top-grade Innate Spiritual Root, and the seven treasure gourds it bore were all top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.

Moreover, not only were the treasure gourds valuable, but even the gourd vine and the Nine Heavens Breath Soil from which it grew were rare, top-tier treasures.

However, this place was now completely empty.

Not to mention the seven Innate Treasure Gourds.

Even the Innate Gourd Vine and the Nine Heavens Breath Soil from which it grew were gone.

Jie Yin, seeing Chen Ku's somewhat dazed expression, guessed what the former was thinking.

His words followed.

"Hmm... that gourd vine that appeared here in the past was indeed an extremely mystical existence."

"It's a pity... we didn't sense it, allowing the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Hong Yun, and that Taiyi to divide it up."

Jie Yin's words also carried a hint of emotion.

He was quite aware of the opportunities of the Three Pure Ones and the others.

Moreover, it was evident that Jie Yin felt quite regretful and frustrated that he hadn't managed to obtain any of the Innate Treasure Gourds back then.

Hearing this, Chen Ku felt even more pained, as if he had "missed out on a billion."

"Alas... bitterness... bitterness..."

"I ultimately transmigrated too late."

"Otherwise, who knows, I might have been able to snatch a treasure gourd."

Chen Ku thought with a disappointed expression.

It should be known that the seven Innate Treasure Gourds, in the hands of the Three Pure Ones and Hong Yun, had displayed great power and left behind many legends.

Chen Ku couldn't help but think that if he had transmigrated earlier, with the advantage of foresight, he might have been able to scheme for one of them.

Fortunately, the continuous sounds of Daoist bitterness made the Primal Chaos Sutra within him improve again, making his mana even stronger, which made Chen Ku feel slightly better.

Of course, there was no use in regretting it now.

After a long while, Chen Ku retracted his gaze, calmed his thoughts, and prepared to pass through this place and continue down the mountain.

But at that moment, his heart suddenly stirred, and a mysterious and indescribable feeling arose.

Chen Ku was stunned, this feeling was unprecedented.

After carefully sensing with his divine sense, Chen Ku was pleasantly surprised to find that the feeling actually came from the Ziwei Astrology great divine power he had comprehended earlier.

This divine power inherently had the effect of seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune.

And seeking opportunities to strengthen oneself was also part of "seeking good fortune."

This couldn't help but make Chen Ku's mind race with thoughts.

Could it be that there are still opportunities or treasures around that the naked eye has not detected?!

Thinking of this, Chen Ku immediately stopped rushing to leave.

His mind raced, and the Ziwei Astrology divine power secretly began to operate, starting the deduction.

The more he deduced, the brighter Chen Ku's eyes became.

Beside him, Jie Yin and Zhun Ti looked at Chen Ku like this, somewhat puzzled.

"What is this kid doing again?!"

"Could it be that he is unwilling to leave because he is not reconciled?!"

Zhun Ti asked, confused.

Hearing this, Jie Yin also shook his head, unable to respond.

"Disciple..."

Jie Yin opened his mouth, just about to ask Chen Ku.

But at this moment, Chen Ku finally ended the deduction in the dark.

His eyes returned to clarity, and they were shining brightly, captivating like never before.

Without bothering to pay attention to Jie Yin's words, he flipped his palm.

In an instant, the Six Roots Pure Bamboo emerged, its emerald light faint and its aura imposing.

Chen Ku waved his hand, and the Six Roots Pure Bamboo also outlined a mysterious trajectory, immediately landing in the void in front of him.

"This..."

This scene made Jie Yin and Zhun Ti even more stunned.

Why did Chen Ku suddenly attack?!

This really caught the two of them off guard.

But immediately afterwards, Jie Yin and Zhun Ti clearly saw.

Under the mighty divine radiance of the Six Roots Pure Bamboo, the void in front of them actually shattered inch by inch, as if collapsing.

After a moment, five-colored radiance burst out, shining brightly and dazzling the eyes.

A space that had not existed before also emerged.

At this point, Jie Yin and Zhun Ti also suddenly understood.

There was actually a mysterious space here that was not visible to the world?!

And Chen Ku sacrificed the Six Roots Pure Bamboo to shatter the innate restriction here, revealing its true appearance.

"This... another opportunity?!"

Zhun Ti exclaimed in shock.

He was numb!

Was Chen Ku's fortune so amazing?!

He just happened to discover a great opportunity while on the road?!

As soon as he finished speaking, Jie Yin and Zhun Ti didn't have time to think too much, and immediately took a step forward, wanting to find out.
