My Uncle Was Ruthless and Fond of Wiping Out Entire Families

Third floor of the Anomaly Division:

Chu Qing read books.

The bizarre and fantastical materials opened his eyes.

He discovered that many materials dropped by anomalies were truly precious.

Even the least valuable ones could be used as resources for the Heaven-Connecting Path.

"We've confirmed his identity!"

"He's an outsider!"

They investigated Peach Blossom Mountain and examined the corpses.

This time, they had transferred over a hundred Third Limit experts.

If the experts of the New Realm had not been dealing with the Millennial Calamity,
