Inner Scenery Treasure, a dim, quiet, and profound atmosphere prevailed, with Mysterious Factor silently drifting down from an unknown source.

At first glance, this place seems like Inner Scenery Realm, serene and detached from the world, standing in a clear and tranquil time, as if in the Bodhisattva Realm in the highest meditation.

Wang Xuan frowned; everything seemed ambiguous.

The treasure was shrouded in darkness, its stillness intermittent and unable to remain clear for long. Most importantly, the Mysterious Factor within it were much less concentrated than those in a true Inner Scenery Realm.

Could this concentration be even one-tenth of the concentration in his own Inner Scenery Realm? Probably not.

He looked back and saw that the passage, shrouded in black mist and white vapor, was filled with countless mysterious patterns, interwoven and entangled irregularly.

Were all the former Earth Immortals, Ascension level masters, and Thousand-Armed True God killed by it?

Standing here, Wang Xuan could truly feel his own level, as insignificant as dust, while those exploded figures stood tall and imposing.

He instantly understood that the black and white patterns in the passage were like a large net, and the extraordinary individuals were like big fish caught in the net and torn to pieces.

He was just a small fish fry that squeezed through the huge mesh of the net.

This comparison is very intuitive. Even a creature at the Earth Immortal level is like a prehistoric giant crocodile!

As Wang Xuan stepped forward, the darkness was pierced. His arrival seemed to activate Inner Scenery Treasure, causing the entire space to tremble and begin to flicker between light and shadow.

He was being called, and there was a fatal attraction to him that made it hard to resist wanting to get closer.

Something is reviving up ahead!

As Wang Xuan walked forward, he used his Root Method to absorb the Mysterious Matter and replenish what he had consumed not long ago.

Deep within the treasure trove, there is a special area where Mysterious Factor fall like snowflakes, becoming many times more concentrated. It is something there that draws people involuntarily closer.

In the dark place there is a pool, where Mysterious Factor accumulate, thick like slurry.

After Wang Xuan arrived, it was as if a torrential rain was falling. He was baptized by the Mysterious Matter, and all the money he had spent, including interest, was returned.

A wisp of mist rose from the pool and quickly enveloped him. Was this the opportunity left behind by the Transcendent Immortals?

Wang Xuan instantly felt that this thing was very important to him. The mist followed his spirit into the mortal world and instantly entered his physical body.

The wondrous artifacts left behind by the Transcendent Immortals can Change Fate —and you've obtained them already?!

Wang Xuan felt an inexplicable connection with his physical body, experiencing a sense of comfort throughout. Strange changes occurred in his life, as if Celestial Maiden was gently stroking his head, trying to straighten his bones and regulate his meridians.

This was not an illusion, because Wang Xuan saw many more images, which should all be imprints left by his predecessors.

Every hundred years, young elites from the three Supernatural Planet of Euler, Heluo, and Yuhua come here to absorb the Mysterious Mist and undergo baptism.

In the display of those branding marks, some people's bones were "corrected," some people's tendons were strengthened, and some people's internal organs were reshaped.

For ordinary people, this is indeed a Change Fate, with everything from their physical constitution to their internal organs being thoroughly examined and optimized.

This is somewhat unbelievable; one Change Fate and elevate their potential through the means of later life.

For those who embark on the Old Arts path, this is tantamount to rebirth, a fundamental change that broadens the path forward for practitioners.

Wang Xuan was shocked; he couldn't believe such a strange object existed!

He doesn't believe in predestination; those who follow Old Arts path are constantly breaking through established life trajectories.

Through hard work, we compete with all things, reshape ourselves, and rewrite our destiny.

This process will inevitably involve blood and tears, and even the loss of life.

Standing in a place of brilliance, one will inevitably see darkness when looking back.

Right now, the existence of a miraculous object that can completely change a person's physique and reshape them through postnatal means has left Wang Xuan unable to calm down for a long time, his emotions surging intensely.

Is this the method of the Transcendent Immortals?

"Nothing has changed?" Wang Xuan was taken aback. His mind was focused on the Inner Scenery Treasure, but he could still sense the external situation.

In the present world, his physical body was covered and baptized by the Mysterious Mist, but his bones, organs and other organs stubbornly shone and resonated, and did not accept the reshaping.

Feeling inspired, Wang Xuan immediately practiced the Root Method of Pre-Qin Daoist practitioners in the Inner Scenery Treasure, then practiced the Golden Body Art, and finally even practiced Zhang Daoling's physical techniques.

The Mysterious Mist was broken down and transformed into a pure, top-tier energy, which he absorbed as he practiced the physical techniques from the five pages of Golden Book.

"What kind of substance is the Mysterious Mist?"

During this process, the mist dissipated, as if he had eaten food. His whole body felt comfortable, as if a Celestial Maiden was helping him to improve his blood circulation. He felt light and airy, as if he were about to ascend to heaven.

"Does my physique simply not need any changes?" Wang Xuan wondered, his words revealing his astonishing potential.

Ancestor Wang has always been confident, after all, he was able to open up the Inner Scenery Realm on his own during his mortal stage!

Even in the most brilliant era of the Old Arts, such individuals were extremely rare, and they are seldom recorded in the ancestral temples of various religions.

"Or is it that my Golden Body Art has reached its peak, and my physical body is rejecting that mysterious reshaping?"

If this is the case, it can only be said that the seemingly simple and terrifyingly energy-consuming Golden Body Art has its unique features, rendering even the Mysterious Mist ineffective.

"Or perhaps, using the Mysterious Mist to reshape my physical body and rewrite my destiny is not necessarily the right thing to do, and it might be rejected by my body?" Wang Xuan thought about many things.

He was not arrogant, but had a clear understanding that from the Pre-Qin Daoist practitioners to the Daoist school sages, their methods and paths had changed several times, and the standards of the early times were not necessarily correct.

He felt that his body was somewhat abnormal and he was not surprised to feel some rejection after opening the Inner Scenery Realm too early.

"No matter what it is, it's been consumed as provisions, so it's not a loss!" Wang Xuan had keen senses and felt that his physical body had benefited from it; those strange energies were very beneficial to his body.

He strongly suspected that if he didn't eat the Demon Fruit and instead went directly into the depths of the Lost Land, he might be able to greatly increase his strength and achieve a breakthrough by using the strange energy in his body.

Wang Xuan fixed his gaze on the pool, where Mysterious Factor accumulated, as thick as water, and most importantly, Mysterious Mist was rising from it.

The treasure sought by immortals, Ascension level masters, and the Thousand-Armed True God is unlikely to be that kind of mist; the real treasure is most likely at the bottom of the pool.

Should we just grab it while we're at it?

The treasures here must be incredibly valuable, enough to drive even earth immortals mad and make even the Golden-winged Great Peng covet them.

Wang Xuan glanced back and saw that the passage was filled with intricate patterns, so dense that even beings at the Ascension stage would be slaughtered without exception.

However, it doesn't restrict small fish like him. Why can't he have some ideas?

"I'm just taking a look to see what kind of object it is." Wang Xuan squatted down near the pool, his body submerged in the Mysterious Matter.

He was very cautious and didn't dare to make any big moves, so he tested the waters first.

However, the bottom of the pool was murky, and nothing could be seen.

Even his attempt to create a spiritual realm was useless; all he saw was emptiness!

"I'm just touching it." Since he couldn't see it, he decided to take action, and his spiritual body extended his right hand.

As soon as Wang Xuan's hand entered the pool, the Mysterious Matter boiled, and the entire treasure space trembled violently, alternating between brilliance and darkness.

He looked back and saw that the various runes in the passage had become extremely dazzling, constantly intertwining. This was the activation of the energy of the Supernatural Rule. If a terrestrial immortal were to break in now, he would be killed instantly!

He looked at it again and again, and thought it was just that, the hole in the net hadn't shrunk, and he could get out.

Wang Xuan couldn't contain himself any longer and touched something at the bottom of the pool. It didn't feel like something spiritual, but rather a real object.

Can real objects be brought into the Inner Scenery Realm?

The moment his fingertips touched it, before he could even feel its shape, he felt the world had changed. Had he returned to ancient times, or had he been transported to another realm?!

What did he see? A burst of light of ascension, and someone was disintegrating.

The shouts of battle shook the heavens, and the sky was filled with light. He could not see people because those creatures were moving too fast, exceeding his senses.

Wang Xuan gasped for breath, steadied himself, and touched the object with his fingertips, slowly moving it and changing its position to alter his perception.

He seemed to have detached himself from the center of that world, and then transcended it, looking down at those terrifying scenes.

That's... Transcendent Immortals fighting each other?

A vast curtain looms ahead, and some hazy figures traverse the heavens and earth. Sword energy tears through the sky, and some are slain, their blood raining down and falling to the ground.

Is that the world behind the Great Curtain?

There is more than one curtain. Is it the fusion of several worlds, or is there another curtain behind the Great Curtain, making it several worlds?

A chaotic battle, Transcendent Immortals clash!

They were fighting over an object shrouded in a hazy light. Whoever fell into its hands would be hunted down by the others.

Transcendent Immortals Wang Xuan was shocked. How extraordinary must an artifact be that even immortals were fighting over?

He seriously suspected that the thing might be at the bottom of the pool!

Is that what his fingertips are touching?

Behind the heavy behind the Great Curtain, Wang Xuan saw a red figure. It was too strong, overwhelming everything. A pair of pure white fists swung out and smashed all the opponents!

That Dao Body was graceful and alluring, yet so domineering. Anyone who competed with her or tried to snatch the strange object from her hands was swept away by her.

Wang Xuan's heart skipped a beat. Could it be the Red-clothed Demon Immortal?

I keep running into her no matter where I go!

Wang Xuan understood that this should be the historical her; what he saw now was merely a mark, an event that had happened in the past.

The red figure was very strong, but there were also other terrifyingly powerful figures in the multi-layered curtain. Several people rushed over and attacked her, causing her to lose the rare item.

Then, Wang Xuan stared blankly again, seemingly seeing another acquaintance.

In the midst of a fierce battle, a white-clothed woman swept aside her opponents, grabbed a strange object from a ball of soft light, and rushed into the depths of multiple layers of curtains.

From a distance, her silhouette looks like that of Female Daoist practitioner!

However, she was also thwarted. Among the many layers of curtains, there were many peerless masters. A man emerged from the deepest layer of curtains and engaged in a fierce duel with her.

The battle raged on all sides, resulting in a brutal and chaotic scene.

During that fierce battle, Wang Xuan even witnessed the Red-clothed Demon Immortal and the Female Daoist practitioner clashing and fighting fiercely several times over the strange object.

Wang Xuan was surprised, then somewhat expectant. These two had fought in history, and if they met again in the present world, they might even fight!

Thump!

The multi-layered curtain trembled, and top experts from all sides launched their attacks, vying for the artifact amidst the chaos. In the end, they knocked the artifact out, piercing through the curtain and landing in the real world!

Is this the object at the bottom of the pool?

What was there to hesitate about? Wang Xuan felt that since he had seen and experienced it, he should take it with him!

He reached into the pool with both hands to retrieve the object. He knew he would regret missing it for the rest of his life, so he had to take it with him.

This is a treasure that even the most behind the Great Curtain Transcendent Immortals.

Even the Red-clothed Demon Immortal and the Female Daoist practitioner fought fiercely for it.

"He has fallen into the mortal world, the human Wang Xuan!"
