The Heart of the Divine God and the Divine God’s Elixir seemed to suddenly fall into An Lin’s embrace as his mind became completely blank.
The sea of vital energy in his dantian expanded to twice its original size from the injection of the Divine God’s Elixir!
One had to realize that meditation had no effect on the sea of vital energy in his dantian anymore. For it to expand to twice its original size was a perfect representation of just how much energy was imbued within the Divine God’s Elixir!
The Heart of the Divine God merged into An Lin’s heart and the power of his consciousness instantly expanded. Regardless of whether it was the degree of purity or the volume of his consciousness, all the parameters received a boost of thirty percent.
The most notable change this effected within An Lin was that he was a lot more sensitive to his surroundings as everything around him became a lot clearer.


At the same time, the Mist Immortal Technique and the Shou Yang True Dragon Mantra, which were the two most important parts of Celestial Immortal Shou Yang’s inheritance were injected into An Lin’s mind.
Cultivation methods, incantations, true intent, observations…
An Lin was ecstatic when he reopened his eyes.
What a massive haul!!

The Mist Immortal Technique could allow a cultivator to transform their body into cloud and mist to travel for thousands of kilometers at a time. This was a technique exclusive to Celestial Immortal Shou Yang and required thirteen thousand points to obtain!
The Shou Yang True Dragon Mantra allowed the cultivator to draw on the power of the sun to unleash extreme power for a short time. This technique required nine thousand points to obtain!
These were all spell techniques directly from the memories of Celestial Immortal Shou Yang, so they were pretty much identical to the inheritance outside.
To be able to obtain so much with just eight thousand points was a huge profit!
He had already finishing absorbing the Heart of the Divine God and the Divine God’s Elixir. All he had to do now was to eat the Reincarnation Ginseng, and he would be able to progress to Soul Formation Stage!
An Lin pondered to himself momentarily but still decided against acting immediately.


There was still something important he had to do, progression to Soul Formation Stage could wait until after that was done.
He bowed with great difficulty to the coffin of Celestial Immortal Shou Yang before instructing the two Gundams to carry him up the staircase.
An Lin emerged through the film of light and heaved a light sigh of relief after discovering everyone was still clambering to exchange their points for treasures.
The dream he had was far too peculiar, and it felt like it stretched for an eternity. If he re-emerged to find that a few decades had already passed, he would probably break down in tears!

An Lin! Did you succeed?

Everyone gathered around him as soon as he came out.
An Lin smiled lightly.
Failure was never an option from the moment I went in.


Wow! You’re so cool! So does that mean you’ve already absorbed the Heart of the Divine God and the Divine God’s Elixir?
Liu Qianhuan asked with bright, excited eyes.

Of course, I also obtained the Mist Immortal Technique as well as the Shou Yang True Dragon Mantra,
An Lin replied triumphantly.
He wasn’t going to hide this from his friends. Furthermore, he had to flex about it too.


As expected, Liu Qianhuan almost leaped off the flying rug after hearing this.

Holy fck! I spend thirteen thousand points to get the Mist Immortal Technique, now you have it as well?!
Her cherry lips fell open as she stared at An Lin with shock and envy.
An Lin waved his hand with a nonchalant expression.
This was all just a pleasant mishap, I don’t really care about it.

Liu Qianhuan had the sudden urge to hit him!
Su Qianyun also puckered her lips and spoke in a mellow voice.
I spent most of my points on the Shou Yang True Dragon Mantra and thought that was the only one of its kind, but now Classmate An Lin has it as well…


Big Brother An is the best, we knew you could do it!
Yao Mingxi and Hu Guan roared with excitement.
All the team members looked at him with envy. It was as if they were looking at someone who was very much winning at the game of life.
After some mandatory flexing, An Lin once again turned his gaze onto the prizes on the treasure-exchange catalog.
The elementary rank immortal tool, Immortal-sealing Gloves, had already been purchased by Big Brother Cheng for fifteen thousand points, and his remaining four hundred points were all spent on spirit pills.
No one bought the Heavenly Ice Silk Garment yet because no one could afford it.


Hence, An Lin swooped in and scooped up the Heavenly Ice Silk Garment.
After paying fourteen thousand points, a near-transparent top appeared in An Lin’s hands.
It was as thin as cicada wings and emanated a cool sensation to the touch.
An Lin immediately put on the immortal tool with the help of the two Gundams.
The Heavenly Ice Silk Garment instantly merged with his skin upon making contact.

Ah… nice!
An Lin immediately felt a pleasing sensation running through his entire body.
The garment could not only protect him when it mattered, but it could also assist in recovery just from being worn!
An Lin still had eleven thousand and one hundred points left, which he could exchange for a lot of treasures.
All the cultivation methods had basically been taken by everyone else.
Xu Xiaolan had taken all of the immortal pills as well, and she gave a Green Soul immortal pill to An Lin in order to help him recover. An Lin was extremely moved by her gesture, especially after seeing how meticulous she was with using her points.


An Lin swallowed the Green Soul immortal pill, and the regenerative properties of the pill instantly took effect with the assistance of An Lin’s Evergreen Technique.
At this rate, An Lin felt like he could recover to full health in two days!
An Lin also wanted to give something to Xu Xiaolan in return, but none of the treasures left on the catalog managed to catch his eye. He almost had the urge to just exchange all his remaining points for spirit stones.
Tian Lingling and White Spirit Snake had already done that.
Tian Lingling was standing off to the side with over forty thousand spirit stones cradled to her chest and a dumb grin on her face. If someone was to look at her without context, they would think she was mentally disabled.
While everyone was happily picking through the treasures, there was one person who was extremely cold and gloomy.
Tang Ximen lay silently on the flying rug. He looked on as everyone else waved their new treasures around, tested out their new spell techniques, and happily stowed away mountains of spirit stones into their storage rings. For some reason, he felt like someone was chopping onions nearby…
The flying rug was extremely warm and snug, but why did he still feel so cold?
Could it be that the warm rug could no longer warm up his heart…
An Lin had also noticed Tang Ximen’s pitiful expression as he lay on the rug.
As team leader of their small team, he felt like he had to donate something to this unfortunate team member.

Senior Tang, I still have over ten thousand points, is there something you would like? I can buy it for you.
An Lin was carried to Tang Ximen’s side by the Gundams with an expression of concern.
Tang Ximen shook his head.
Thank you for asking, but I don’t need anything.

Thus, the brief conversation between the biggest winner in life and the biggest loser in life came to a conclusion.
An Lin purchased a spirit tool that was at the pinnacle of spirit tools; it was called the Chaotic Sky-Crushing Claw.
The Chaotic Sky-Crushing Claw was a blue glove with sharp claws on the fingertips. The name was extremely badas, the material was extremely sharp and it could provide strong boosts for metal category and wind category spell techniques.
This was the present An Lin had decided to buy for Da Bai. After all, Da Bai had been his loyal steed for a long time, so An Lin had to buy him something.
He exchanged his remaining six thousand and one hundred points for spirit stones.
Thus, he earned over 1.2 million spirit stones which after adding that to the horde of spirit stones in his storage ring, amounted to a total of close to six million spirit stones.
An Lin stowed away the spirit stones and lay down on the flying rug while wearing his immortal tool as he basked under the light of the sun.
The rug was snug and warm and life was great…
