Chapter Summary: “Divine Artifact! A Divine Artifact!”

Key Plot Points and Events

• After leaving the Meng Family’s dream realm, Qin Shaofeng reflects on Meng Xin’er’s future. He realizes that returning to the Illusion Clan will make her extraordinarily powerful but will also make winning her family’s approval far more difficult.
• Qin learns that the three kingdoms he knows are only a small part of the world. The Illusion Clan’s home, the Origin Continent, is vastly larger and more powerful, while his own homeland is little more than a small island by comparison.
• The Meng Family itself contains terrifying experts. Qin discovers that Meng Xin’er’s mother, Lin Wanyun, is a Saint Yuan Realm powerhouse, while many other members of the family are powerful enough to appear as question marks to his Fiery Golden Eyes.
• Rather than being discouraged, Qin turns this realization into motivation. He vows that he will eventually become strong enough to marry Meng Xin’er openly and honorably, remembering her promise to wait for him.
• Qin examines the new God-grade skill he obtained: the Three-Tomoe Sharingan. It grants exceptional perception, greatly improves reaction speed, allows him to observe movements in detail, and can copy martial techniques at a Spirit Qi cost. It also greatly enhances the effectiveness of Lightning Cutter.
• He uses his remaining lottery opportunities, receiving a mediocre experience card and chewing gum from the Normal Lotteries, but obtains the extraordinary Dream Wings from the Special Lottery.
• Dream Wings are effectively a divine artifact: they triple the wearer’s attributes, raise all skill levels by one, grant unrestricted flight, tenfold speed, teleportation, spatial movement, and temporary immunity to attacks. Their only major limitation is that they require Yuan Dan Realm cultivation.
• Qin gives Dream Wings to Meng Xin’er despite their immense value. He also gives her an Azure Wolf Emperor cub and the Experience Fruits he has accumulated so that her familiar can grow stronger.
• Little Ball becomes extremely upset that Qin has given away such precious treasures and retreats into the Origin World to sulk.
• While traveling back toward Lianyang Academy, Qin uses the newly purchased Lingbo Weibu, an advanced movement technique bought for one million Points.
• The chapter ends with Qin reviewing his current status: he is at Spirit Vein Level 3, possesses numerous techniques and talents, has Meng Xin’er, Qin Yue’er, and Bai Xue as familiars, and retains significant future potential despite still being far weaker than the Meng Family and Illusion Clan.

Character Development

• Qin Shaofeng: His confidence is tempered by a clearer understanding of the enormous power gap between himself and Meng Xin’er’s family. However, this does not weaken his resolve; it strengthens his ambition to become powerful enough to marry her. His willingness to sacrifice powerful treasures for Meng Xin’er also demonstrates his devotion.
• Meng Xin’er: She is positioned to become one of the Illusion Clan’s greatest geniuses because of the Void Spirit and her inherited abilities. Her emotional response to Qin’s gift, including kissing him, shows her deep affection and trust.
• Little Ball: He reveals valuable knowledge about the higher realms and the Illusion Clan but reacts comically and angrily when Qin gives away Dream Wings and other resources. His sulking highlights both his greed for powerful items and his attachment to Qin.
• Lin Wanyun and the Meng Family: Although they do not directly interact with Qin in this chapter, their overwhelming strength establishes the scale of the world Qin must eventually confront.

Significant Themes

• Ambition in the face of overwhelming power: Qin recognizes how insignificant his current strength is, yet treats the revelation as motivation rather than defeat.
• Love and sacrifice: Qin willingly gives Meng Xin’er an artifact that could greatly improve his own survival, showing that he values her safety above personal gain.
• Growth and destiny: The God-grade system, Sharingan, Dream Wings, and Qin’s expanding collection of abilities reinforce the idea that he is steadily building toward a much greater destiny.
• The widening world: The chapter expands the story’s scope from the three kingdoms to the Origin Continent and the Illusion Clan, emphasizing how much stronger the future challenges will be.
• Power versus current limitations: Although Dream Wings are extraordinarily powerful, Qin cannot yet use them because he has not reached the Yuan Dan Realm, reminding readers that valuable opportunities may still be beyond his present abilities.

Character Interactions

• Qin and Meng Xin’er share a tender moment when she receives Dream Wings and kisses him in excitement and gratitude.
• Qin gives Meng Xin’er the Dream Wings, an Azure Wolf Emperor cub, and his Experience Fruits, demonstrating a strong romantic and protective bond.
• Little Ball argues indirectly with Qin through his angry reaction to the gifts, then refuses to speak to him and retreats into the Origin World.
