Stealing an Inner Scenery Realm

"Little Wang, is this health regimen only effective this time, or can it be continued in the future?" Qian An asked, wondering if it was sustainable. This was very important, and he was quite looking forward to it.

Wang Xuan told him that health preservation should be done gradually, and normally, it would be no problem to Extend Life several years!

Qian An's eyes instantly lit up, looking nothing like those of an elderly person; they were bright and piercing, and his face was full of smiles, even his wrinkles smoothed out.

They got along even better, and soon Qian An personally retrieved a scripture and gave it to Wang Xuan and Old Chen to look at. It turned out to be the legendary Five- Five-Colored Golden Elixir Scripture!

It is one of the most unparalleled secret manuals in the Golden Elixir Dao realm!

Wang Xuan had come into contact with the spiritual aspect of this scripture, a unique skill called the Five-Colored Golden Elixir Primordial Spirit Art, which Zhao Qinghan helped him exchange with Zhong Qing.

Wang Xuan and Old Chen exchanged glances. Just now, the two of them had prepared to project their minds into the Daoist temple to see if there were any more astonishing scriptures.

Who would have thought that Qian An himself would send out a very important scripture!

In the modern world, this is already considered a top-tier secret manual in the Golden Core and Nascent Soul paths.

"That's all." Old Chen's mind wandered around for a moment, confirming that there were indeed no other secret manuals in the Daoist temple. He figured the Qian Family couldn't have kept all their scriptures here.

Wang Xuan said, "I'll rest for a bit, and then I'll help you improve your blood circulation and stimulate the activity of your five internal organs. The effect will be even better."

Having obtained the top-tier secret manual, he wanted to make a statement.

At the same time, he wanted to have his mind leave his body to see the Ascension Strange Item here, and to see what differences he would find by observing them with his Spiritual Heavenly Eye.

Wang Xuan closed his eyes and remained still. Old Chen guarded his body and chatted with Qian An.

In an instant, Wang Xuan's spirit left his body and he saw something different: mysterious particles expanded from the main hall, like ripples spreading outwards.

He quickly approached. The Ascension Strange Item here was half a copper wall, truly cast in brass, struck by lightning and melted.

Only a small section, half a meter high, remains, embedded in the wall of the main hall, with only part of it visible.

The Ascension Strange Item is a bone inside it, hidden within the copper wall, and contains some residual spiritual energy.

When Wang Xuan observed this for the first time using his Spiritual Heavenly Eye, he suddenly understood.

The remaining spirit was a faint shadow, slumbering silently. Behind it was a hazy crack, as if connected to a blurred world, emanating Mysterious Factor.

Wang Xuan approached cautiously and found that the shadow seemed to be dead, and it seemed that it would never wake up unless he touched it with his mind.

He was startled, avoided the shadow, drew in the Mysterious Factor from the hazy gap, and peered inside.

That's... the Inner Scenery Realm!

The Inner Scenery Realm of a person who Ascension to Immortality to immortality!

Wang Xuan calmed himself down, and after a moment, he approached again to peer into the room once more.

There was also a faint shadow in the Inner Scenery Realm, as if it were dead, silent and still.

His mind was racing, and for the first time, he saw the truth: the so-called Ascension Strange Item that could open the Inner Scenery Realm had such an essence.

Wang Xuan possessed Spiritual Heavenly Eye, allowing him to gain a deeper understanding of the truth than before.

If he activates the faint shadow outside, making it resonate with the one in the Inner Scenery Realm, it will open the Inner Scenery Realm left by the Transcendent Immortals. The two shadows will merge into one, and the fragmented spirit of the former immortal will be revived!

Wang Xuan attempted to draw out the Mysterious Factor directly from that hazy crevice, and immediately a rich substance was drawn out, nourishing his spirit.

Is this even possible?!

He looked at the crack and felt his spiritual energy sneaking in, but he didn't do anything reckless. Doing so would be too risky; making too much noise would awaken the shadow inside.

Wang Xuan drew out a stream of Mysterious Factor, and the dense particle flow enveloped his mind. He then quickly left, not daring to act too impulsively.

Old Chen immediately sensed something was wrong; the Mysterious Matter around him had increased dramatically!

Wang Xuan's physical body was quickly covered by that factor, his internal organs were glowing, and his whole body was covered with a layer of crystal-clear radiance.

"What is this, Little Wang...?" Qian An was surprised.

Qian Rui and Qian Qian were also stunned. It was the first time they had seen a man whose entire body was glowing. He had a solemn and dignified appearance, like a god sitting cross-legged, and a halo of light enveloped Wang Xuan.

He was activating the strongest scripture to digest and absorb this rich substance until he was saturated!

"Didn't I tell you? Little Wang is skilled in health preservation. He is practicing and recovering his strength."

Old Chen responded without changing his expression, but his heart was pounding. Was Little Wang stealing rare substances from the Transcendent Immortals's Inner Scenery Realm?!

Not long after, Wang Xuan once again left his body, drawing in a dense Mysterious Factor for Old Chen and telling him the details.

"The Spiritual Heavenly Eye, with its keen observation, can detect the shadows of Transcendent Immortals and avoid them. And it can be used like this?" Old Chen was extremely envious.

Once or twice, Wang Xuan did not repeat the process a third time. He was afraid that doing so too frequently would awaken the two shadows. The rich substances from these two encounters alone were enough for him and Old Chen to replenish their needs, far exceeding what they had consumed on the Cloud Mist Plateau.

Then, he "combed" Qian An's body again, this time giving him even more Mysterious Matter. Old Qian's forehead glowed on the spot, leaving Qian Qian and Qian Rui speechless.

"With your Spiritual Heavenly Eye guiding us, do you think we can sneak into that Inner Scenery Realm?" Old Chen asked secretly, intrigued.

Wang Xuan shook his head and said, "It's highly unlikely. If we go in, it will probably wake him up. Unless we're forced into a corner, we shouldn't take the risk."

In the evening, Qian An was in high spirits, his voice was loud and clear, and he was full of energy. He was overjoyed and excited and hosted a banquet for the two of them, and everyone enjoyed themselves.

Qian An personally escorted them to the outside of the manor and sent a special car to take them away.

Wang Xuan settled down in Su City, intending to make the city his home for the time being.

In the following days, Old Chen frequently attended banquets and made contact with various parties. The news of him and Wang Xuan destroying a branch of the Gray Blood organization was still gaining traction and had a huge impact.

Wang Xuan stopped participating and began contemplating his next steps: should he pursue the Golden Core and Nascent Soul paths? How could he quickly improve himself?

These days, Qin Cheng is also busy, applying for Professor Lin's graduate program to enter the Human Potential Research Institute of Kaiyuan University, preparing to clash with the disciples and followers taught by the so-called "orthodox Old Arts" lineage!

Back then, Professor Lin had a fist punched through his chest, Qin Cheng wanted to help Professor Lin get revenge. With Wang Xuan's support, he was very confident.

He had drunk from the Earth Immortal Spring and consumed spiritual medicines to nourish his flesh and blood. Recently, the benefits have begun to manifest, and his strength has started to gradually increase. He can feel himself getting stronger every day.

"Old Wang, what are your plans? You've been so quiet lately, like a stone. What are you thinking about?" Qin Cheng asked.

"I'm thinking about the path ahead, how to become an Earth Immortal, and how to deal with the True Immortals who are still alive in history but whose strength has severely declined," Wang Xuan said calmly.

Qin Cheng was stunned, feeling that the two of them were living in completely different worlds. How could they possibly have a pleasant conversation?

After a moment, he said, "Let's not talk about that far ahead. What are your plans for the near future? Like earning money to support your family, or finding a girlfriend. If you don't have a suitable target, I'll take you to Kaiyuan University to see some pretty girls."

He then asked, "By the way, is Goddess Zhao stuck in the secret realm? I heard from Zhong Cheng that the place is extremely dangerous. Is she still able to come back?"

"It should be fine. I should be able to see her in a while." Wang Xuan smiled.

"Old Wang, something's not right! You never smiled like that when you mentioned Zhao Qinghan before. You didn't happen to have something going on with her, did you?" Qin Cheng asked suspiciously, then looked at him, observing his expression, and said, "Damn, Old Wang, you're a beast! You've won over Goddess Zhao? Impressive!"

"How can you talk like that? It's awful." Wang Xuan glanced at him.

"Wait a minute, let me catch my breath. This news is a bit explosive." Qin Cheng rubbed his forehead, genuinely not expecting this situation. Finally, he sighed, "Old Wang, you're something else. I heard from Zhong Cheng that Zhao is very popular among their acquaintances at New Star, and she's even known as Goddess. You might have inadvertently offended some tycoon kids!"

Wang Xuan immediately thought of the perverted man who harbored murderous intent towards him because of Ling Wei — Little Song.

He immediately rubbed his temples and said, "It's not even close to being settled yet, so don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, what if another doting father appears, and Old Zhao comes looking for me? There's still no clue what's going on, wouldn't that be unfair to me?!"

"Let's not talk about that for now. Our college classmates Zhou Kun, Su Chan, Li Qingzhu, and Kong Yi saw that picture of Wang Zhimiao a few days ago and thought it looked a lot like you. They contacted me and know that you've come to New Star. They want to have a get-together," Qin Cheng said.

There are quite a few students at New Star, plus those who came from Old Earth, there are probably dozens of them.

Wang Xuan nodded and said, "I already know. Zhou Kun and Su Chan got my contact information from you and called me. Let's wait a while, there might be some things to do soon."

Recently, people have been frequently seen around the area where he rents a place, clearly indicating that he is being closely observed by various parties who are watching his every move, and something bad might happen.

Wang Xuan muttered to himself, "Instead of doing that, I might as well give them the opportunity to make direct contact. Otherwise, it's really annoying that they're always spying on me in secret."

Just then, his phone rang, and he saw it was Zhou Yun.

"Little Wang, how have you been lately? Want to get together? A party on the sea, a gathering on the moon, all sorts of fun places you can choose from. I'll introduce you to some new friends."

"I have some things to take care of recently, let's meet up another time. Where are you?" Wang Xuan asked him.

"Me? I'm racing spaceships with my friends in outer space," Zhou Yun replied, repeatedly inviting him to relax in outer space.

What else could Wang Xuan say? This guy's life was really colorful and enviable. He should indeed learn from him how to relax, but he really didn't have time right now.

He put down the phone and said, "I've made up my mind. I'll earn money to support my family first, and try to buy a small spaceship so I can go to the heavens anytime to collect all kinds of innate energy and essence."

"What do you want to do?" Qin Cheng asked him.

"I'll open a Health Preservation Hall," Wang Xuan said. It wasn't just a spur-of-the-moment idea; he genuinely had this plan.

Many people are watching him, so let's give them the opportunity to get close to him, and if any trouble arises, let's detonate it in advance.

At the same time, he did intend to take this opportunity to do some business and acquire Old Arts scriptures. Now, Qian Spirit-Calming Tree radiant and full of energy, as if he had become several years younger, which had already caused a stir in his small circle.

At this stage, some people have already reached out to him through Qian An, wanting to talk to him.

Wang Xuan was a man of action, and he immediately took Qin Cheng to choose a suitable location in Su City. However, he was soon dealt a heavy blow. The housing prices in Su City were outrageously expensive, with any shop costing tens of millions of yuan.

"This is... way too exaggerated!" Wang Xuan was lost in thought.

"There's nothing we can do. Su City is a first-tier city, land is incredibly valuable, it's just that expensive." Qin Cheng shrugged.

Wang Xuan glanced at the houses and saw that those in good locations and with larger areas were priced at over 100 million yuan.

He could only shake his head; the price was outrageous.

In fact, if he were to liquidate his assets, the value would be astonishing; he could easily afford to buy the property he wanted.

But he won't use items like the Sun Gold Spear, the Earth Immortal Spring, or the Mountain Snail, as these things are unlikely to be encountered again in the future, so he'll use them sparingly.

"I regret not making some extra money when I wiped out the Gray Blood organization!" He felt that there were many opportunities at the time.

At the very least, when killing the two extraordinary individuals in the New Arts Domain, even just collecting a little blood and selling it to Qian An would fetch an astronomical price!

"I've been practicing spiritual cultivation lately, and I've almost forgotten that I was born into this world and live in the mortal realm. I need to make money!"

He's now somewhat hoping the Gray Blood organization will come after him for revenge; if he gets another chance, he'll definitely "settle some scores."

Wang Xuan quietly rented the venue, but the rent was outrageously expensive.

It must be said that New Star's various approval processes were very fast. He and Qin Cheng completed all the formalities in a short time and hung up the Health Preservation Hall sign.

"Is this Old Arts school, a place for sparring? We'd like to test our skills."

Just as Wang Xuan had predicted, someone eagerly came to "contact" him.

"This is a place to recuperate, not for fighting or sparring. You've come to the wrong place," Qin Cheng explained.

"No, this business exists; it's listed on the business license," Wang Xuan said, smiling as he told Qin Cheng, "From now on, you'll be in charge of this."

"Old Wang, are you trying to get me killed?!" Qin Cheng's expression changed.

Wang Xuan said, "Old Arts require duels and battles. You have the foundation now, but you seriously lack practical experience."

The people who came to contact Wang Xuan left immediately without causing any trouble, because Qian An had arrived.

Next, Zhong Qing and her brother Zhong Cheng arrived to show their support.

Then Zhou Yun arrived, shouting, "Little Wang, is it true? Old Qian said that this place can Extend Life by five years? My grandfather is tempted and has even prepared the scriptures. Let me take a look first!"

"It depends on the person, the specific situation, and their individual constitution. Mr. Qian is no ordinary person. He pursued inner peace and restored an ancient Daoist temple in his home. I found that it was particularly suitable for him to enter a meditative state, and it helped him maintain his health Extend Life with twice the result."

Wang Xuan wanted to get a feel for things, not just the scriptures, but also who owned ancient Daoist temples or Buddhist Ancient Temple, which were likely to come in handy soon.

Just then, someone delivered a letter. These days, there aren't many people who write letters on paper anymore.

After Wang Xuan tore open the envelope, his eyes sharpened. The letter was blood-stained and smelled of blood. It contained the following words: "Congratulations on your grand opening. I'd like to borrow a head within ten days."

The words were simple, without any excessive insults or curses, but they were filled with murderous intent, indicating a desire to take Wang Xuan's head.

The bottom mark is a special symbol; it's the emblem of the Gray Blood organization.

Qian An's expression immediately changed. This organization... even after having one branch eliminated, they still wanted to continue. Knowing that Chen Yongjie was a superhuman, they still dared to attack Wang Xuan, who was on very good terms with him?!

"Is someone trying to take you seriously, or is it a bloody revenge?" Zhong Qing frowned.

"That's too much. This organization should be wiped out. They dare to be so blatant. They were taught a lesson back then." Zhong Cheng also spoke up.

"They have the confidence; they're probably fearless. Perhaps they have a powerful conglomerate backing them," Wang Xuan said, a cold glint in his eyes. Was someone trying to push him to "grow" faster? To give him even greater motivation to become stronger!
