The night was deep, and all was silent.

Everyone sat around the simple dining table, gazing at the dishes that radiated a dazzling glow, feeling a sense of unreality.

Chen Fusheng had never seen ninety-nine percent of these dishes before. The only one he recognized was the Purple Spirit Bamboo Shoots. Xuan Yuanchang had taken out such ingredients in the Flood Dragon Ship's kitchen.

However, that bamboo shoot was only the size of a thumb. They had even embezzled a lot when it was stewed with the meat of demonic beasts. But this full plate of bamboo shoots glowing with purple divine light? It weighed at least ten catties!

Chen Fusheng was indeed shocked. How many Star Stones would this cost? It was hard to estimate. It probably belonged to the non-sale items, perhaps top-level ingredients offered to the core of the Heavenly Star Manor.

Old Han picked up a piece to taste, savoring it with an expression of enjoyment. The taste was still top-notch, but it lacked something compared to the past. Of course, it was enough for him to have a feast.

Chen Fusheng picked up a Golden Mushroom. An extremely delicious taste slowly spread, and his body surface emitted golden light. His flesh and blood were like being soaked in nectar, and the foundation of his life was effectively nourished.

He was shocked. With his current physical foundation, this Golden Mushroom could continue to strengthen his human root system. It was truly terrifying.

After he ate a spoonful of Jade Marrow Soup, his flesh emitted a beautiful jade luster, and his internal organs seemed to be jade-like, making his physique thick as a mountain.

The effects of each ingredient were different, especially the Volcanic Wonder Lotus, which contained yin and yang energies, circulating through the body and nourishing the vitality of all things.

Chen Fusheng's mouth was fragrant, and he was constantly suppressing his own state, allowing the essence to hide deep within his body. However, the Golden Crow Duck Soup almost exposed his vital signs.

This Golden Crow was an ancient spirit bird with the bloodline of the Golden Crow clan. These soups enveloped the heart, and the medicinal power caused the Life Essence Blood to explode and erupt!

The Phoenix Blood Chicken was even more remarkable, replenishing Qi and blood, strengthening bones, and containing vast vitality. Chen Fusheng did not dare to eat it because he knew he could not stabilize it.

Lei San's changes continued to be astonishing. Dull thunder rumbled and broke out of his body with each breath, and lightning imprints appeared on his body surface, setting off his burly physique like a thunder and lightning war god.

Chen Fusheng was moved and pleasantly surprised. Was this the Innate Thunder Body?

Han Yu Rou chewed slowly like a lady, and was also shocked by Lei San's aura. No wonder Old Han treated him so highly. He would have a place among the future geniuses of the Abyss Realm!

Han Yu Rou found this silly big guy very pleasing to the eye. When she noticed Chen Fusheng, she snorted coldly in her heart. Even though the color on his body surface was strong, his vital signs were still weak.

"Wasting natural resources." Han Yu Rou was extremely vengeful. Such top-notch supplements? They had miraculous effects even for those in the Four Realms. Ordinary Star Masters would lose all the medicinal power after eating them!

She was also surprised. Why didn't Huang Tiancheng take Lei San, who was stronger, as his grandson?

Chen Fusheng was dawdling, storing the Life Essence Blood in his Qi Sea, preparing to find a chance to go out and digest it before coming back to eat.

"No wonder everyone wants to become stronger. This is simply supreme enjoyment."

Chen Fusheng looked at Old Han. The old man took only one bite of each dish, closed his eyes, and enjoyed it silently, before moving his chopsticks after a long time.

In fact, for those who cultivated to his level, the nourishment of these ingredients was naturally meaningless. He was merely enjoying the impact on his taste buds.

"I say, Old Huang."

After tasting the Multi-Treasure Turtle, Old Han said casually, "It's been ten years since we parted. Your temples are turning white. It's time to consider the children."

Han Yu Rou put down her chopsticks with some difficulty, looking at the table full of dishes, her emotions inevitably a little nervous, because the following conversation would affect her life!

Han Yu Rou prided herself on her extraordinary talent, comparable to a Dao Star Master, but she knew that in this world, there were even more terrifying peerless geniuses than her, Saint Star Masters!

Such a person was like a saint descending into the mortal world, the real top-level existence!

Lei San had already fallen asleep, drowsy. Chen Fusheng also looked at Huang Tiancheng. Was it that they had not seen each other for ten years, or that Old Han had been looking for him for ten years?

"Since we parted in the Cold Abyss, you have aged a lot."

Huang Tiancheng said calmly, "Ever since the end of the ancient years, cultivators from all walks of life have flocked to excavate the Zhou Dynasty treasures, but to this day, they have never seen the full picture."

Chen Fusheng didn't know how strong the ancient overlord who ruled the Zhou Dynasty was, but he had heard about the Cold Abyss. Even Star Masters of the Other Shore could be frozen to death. It was extremely vicious, yet it buried the most glorious super power in history.

The formation of the Cold Abyss was also related to the ancient war. The final result was naturally the destruction of the Zhou Dynasty and the fall of the Saint Stars, and the Cold Abyss, which buried the Zhou Dynasty, became a treasure hunting ground.

Old Han was somewhat silent. There was a group of forces in the Abyss Realm equivalent to the Heavenly Sun Star Palace, and their goal was the Zhou Dynasty treasure and the forbidden path cultivators!

However, he was only interested in the treasure, and so was Huang Tiancheng. Otherwise, he wouldn't have suffered from the Cold Abyss Poison while opening a sealed treasure trove back then.

Back then, it wasn't just the two of them; there was also a group of strong individuals who died on the road. After that incident, it triggered the struggle among the Heavenly Star Manors.

What they were fighting for was naturally the Supreme Treasure Land in its opened state.

Although Huang Tiancheng was severely injured, he had obtained an amazing treasure back then, pointing to the strongest treasure area of the Zhou Dynasty, which was also the main reason why Old Han was looking for him.

"You're not just here for the key, are you?" Old Huang asked.

"Has Devouring Moon been destroyed?" Old Han asked.

"Even if it wasn't destroyed, do you think I would give it to you?" Huang Tiancheng shook his head. This was an ancestral treasure that had accompanied him throughout his life.

"That's natural. I don't want Devouring Moon either, but you should know how important the potential value of the Star Skill is to my Heavenly Sun Star Palace."

Old Han responded, "Some things really should be resolved. You can make any requests you have."

"I mentioned before, trading the Devouring Moon Star Skill for a Heavenly Sun Star Skill." Huang Tiancheng sneered. It was a completely equal trade, but they wouldn't agree to it.

"That's even more impossible now."

Old Han sternly refused. The Heavenly Sun Star Skill was a secret of the Heavenly Sun Star Palace. Who would dare to spread it privately? It also involved the inheritance of the Dao Yang Furnace.

"Of course, to take a step back, even if I give it to you, the probability of mastering it is extremely low, given the difficulty of cultivating the Heavenly Sun Star Skill."

Cultivating Star Skills required specific inheritance scrolls, which were almost all one-time use. If you failed, you would suffer a great loss.

"Of course."

Old Han changed the subject, "If Lei San joins my sect, I promise to pass it on to him!"

The Heavenly Sun Star Palace naturally had a core lineage. Even inherited disciples from foreign races could not touch the Heavenly Sun Star Skill, as it involved the foundation of their existence.

However, after taking Devouring Moon and letting Lei San come into contact with this inheritance, Old Han was confident.

"Alright."

Huang Tiancheng looked at Chen Fusheng and said, "My grandson has some talent. I hope he can join the Heavenly Star Manor and be given generous conditions and treatment."

Old Han frowned. This request was not difficult for him. Chen Fusheng could also go through the back door, but Old Han was worried that it would bring him harm.

The internal strife of the Heavenly Star Manor was more cruel than outsiders imagined. The so-called voluntary treatment had hidden dangers to life.

Chen Fusheng didn't understand why Huang Tiancheng wanted him to go to the Heavenly Star Manor. Wasn't this like living under the tiger's tail?

"I will give him the status of a core disciple!"

Old Han still promised. This was the status and treatment second only to Han Yu Rou's inherited disciple!

Chen Fusheng was shocked. The core disciple's status was even higher than Xuan Yuanchang's, and he could obtain the true inheritance of the Heavenly Star Manor. It seemed that Old Han's identity was more shocking than he had imagined.

"Is the Abyss Realm Supreme Treasure Land about to open? You should have some keys in your possession, right?"

Hearing this, Old Han smiled wryly, "You want Chen Fusheng to go to the Supreme Treasure Land, do you know the dangers involved? Do you understand the potential risks of the keys?"

"If you don't say it, and I don't say it, who would know?"

Huang Tiancheng smiled and said, "My conditions are nothing compared to the Golden Key. Besides, you've gained an Innate Thunder Body; your luck is truly remarkable, old fellow."

Old Han's lips curled up, suppressing a smile, but he frowned as he looked at Chen Fusheng.

Didn't Huang Tiancheng understand his meaning? Chen Fusheng had cultivated in the Heavenly Star Manor for several years, becoming a Star Lord under his protection. Wasn't this a path to the heavens?

Even without these deals, he wouldn't refuse to help out of friendship, even if he couldn't become a Star Lord, he could still live a wealthy life.

But going to the treasure land to fight was too dangerous. How could one stand firm without absolute strength?

Old Han wanted to persuade him, but when he saw Huang Tiancheng bowing his head to eat, signaling the end of the conversation, Old Han sighed slightly.

"I agree to all of these. I need a few days to discuss the matter of the treasure key."

After speaking, he slowly stood up, and Chen Fusheng followed suit. Han Yu Rou's bright eyes reluctantly left the dining table, and she pursed her red lips, stood up, swiped a piece of Jade Cake, and followed Old Han away.

Chen Fusheng saw them to the door and then returned.

Chen Fusheng had a bellyful of questions to ask, but Huang Tiancheng went to the kitchen, moved the water tank, and took him to the Fire Vein area.

"Grandpa, there's actually a fire-attribute spiritual vein down here!"

Chen Fusheng was taken aback. The underground tunnel was fiery red, with a kind of violent aura that made his mouth dry.

Moreover, this was still the dormant state of the Fire Vein. He glanced at the chiseled opening of the Fire Vein and could see endless magma and flames.

Chen Fusheng was also a little speechless. Hadn't the higher-ups of the Star Gazing Manor discovered that there was a spiritual vein here?

"Some people like to eavesdrop; it's very safe for us to talk here." Huang Tiancheng smiled in his old age.

"Grandpa, what exactly is the treasure key? And why am I going to the Heavenly Star Manor?"

"During the Black River trip, you saw their reactions. Either you stop cultivating now, or you brave the dangers and push forward!"

"So, which path do you choose?" Huang Tiancheng asked very seriously.

Chen Fusheng answered without hesitation, "The path is beneath my feet; how can there be any reason to retreat?"

"Boom!"

Chen Fusheng no longer suppressed his vital signs, and dazzling, mottled light emerged. As his body absorbed the medicinal power of the ingredients, expelling the old and taking in the new, his life activity climbed a great deal.

In an instant, he had a kind of extraordinary and holy life aura. The Life Essence Blood emerging from his pores already showed signs of surging like wolf smoke!

"The Milky Way turns in the sky, and the curtains fall on earth."

Huang Tiancheng looked up, gazing at the figure bathed in mottled light. He seemed to be standing in the deep starry sky, with starlight points surrounding him and shining, as if the armor of the galaxy covered his body.

He was excited and shocked. In just a few months, an ordinary mortal had transformed, creating a physique with unparalleled potential. A remarkable person, a true great man!
