Investing In My Crippled Heavenly Empress Wife Gets 100,000x Returns

Wang Lan widened his already small eyes and sized Chen Chuan up again, clicking his tongue in wonder:

”Incredible! Junior Brother Chen, you managed to get a recommendation token to enter the Holy Land with only a Second Level of the Transcendence Realm cultivation? It seems you must have extraordinary qualities!”

Their surprise was not feigned.

Most Outer Sect Disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land had cultivation in the Void Breaking Realm.

The fact that Chen Chuan was assigned here meant he had also entered using a recommendation token.

This was because both Wang Lan and Yang Shu had relied on recommendation tokens to enter the Taiyi Holy Land.

Without recommendation tokens, it would have been impossible for them to become Disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land with their cultivation levels.

Thus, they had assumed Chen Chuan’s cultivation would be at the Void Breaking Realm level and hadn’t expected him to be at the Second Level of the Transcendence Realm.

Furthermore, they noticed that Chen Chuan was still very young.

Chen Chuan gave a bitter smile and changed the subject:

”You overpraise me, Senior Brothers. Upon entering the Holy Land, I only feel my own insignificance.”

”I didn’t expect that in this place, even the Void Breaking Realm only qualifies one as an ordinary Outer Sect Disciple. In the Lower Realm, such a person would already be a dominant figure.”

Upon hearing this, a look of emotion and pride appeared on Yang Shu’s face:

”Junior Brother Chen might not know, but our Taiyi Holy Land is the undisputed number one Immortal Force in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain. Its Inheritance has been passed down for over a hundred thousand years, and its foundation is deeper than anyone outside can imagine.”

”Those so-called Immortal Aristocratic Families and Divine Dynasties are simply not on the same level as the Holy Land.”

”Legend has it that our Sect’s Founder, Great Emperor Taiyi, once swept through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, suppressing an entire era with infinite power.”

”As his successors, the Holy Land naturally gathers the top Geniuses and resources of the entire Immortal Domain.”

Chen Chuan was secretly shocked—a Great Emperor’s Inheritance!

This was even more astonishing than he had anticipated.

He took the opportunity to ask, ”So that’s how it is. By the way, Senior Brothers, I heard that the Holy Lord of the Holy Land recently took a female Cultivator from the Lower Realm as a Direct Disciple. I wonder if this is true?”

”It is indeed true!” Wang Lan nodded immediately, his fat face full of envy:

”This matter has spread throughout the Holy Land, but the Holy Lord and that Senior Sister are both extremely low-key.”

”Specific information about her is kept strictly secret; we Outer Sect Disciples have no way of knowing.”

Yang Shu added, his eyes filled with longing:

”The Holy Lord hasn’t taken a Direct Disciple in many years. Now that he has made an exception, that Senior Sister’s talent must be unprecedented.”

”Rumors within the Sect say she is very likely to be the sole successor of the Holy Land and the next generation’s Holy Lord.”

Chen Chuan’s heart stirred, and he pressed further, ”Sole successor? Then this Senior Sister must have extraordinary talent in Cultivation?”

”That’s a certainty!” Wang Lan and Yang Shu said in unison, their tones absolutely positive.

Yang Shu lowered his voice and said:

”Although the specifics are unknown, it’s said that the Senior Sister awakened an extremely ancient and powerful Physique or Inheritance.”

”Her Cultivation speed is incredible. The Holy Lord has high hopes for her and teaches her personally; ordinary people can’t even get a glimpse of her.”

Hearing Yang Shu’s words, Chen Chuan felt somewhat excited.

According to what Yang Shu said, if that successor really inherited an Inheritance, it was very likely Ji Siyu.

After all, Ji Siyu had obtained the Inheritance of the Ice Phoenix Divine Emperor.

Chen Chuan frowned slightly and asked the most crucial question:

”Then how can Disciples like us meet that successor of the Holy Lord?”

Hearing this, Wang Lan and Yang Shu both looked at Chen Chuan with a gaze that said ”You must be dreaming.”

Wang Lan patted his shoulder and said earnestly:

”Junior Brother Chen, take a piece of advice from your Senior Brother: don’t have such wild thoughts.”

”Since her arrival, that Senior Sister has almost never appeared in public, focusing all her mind on Cultivation.”

”Forget about us Outer Sect Disciples; even many Inner Sect elites and even some Elders rarely get to see her.”

Yang Shu also nodded in agreement. ”There is currently only one way to see that Senior Sister, and that is to become her follower.”

Yang Shu indicated that those qualified to compete for the position of follower were all the top Prodigies in the Holy Land—those Holy Sons and Saintesses who were already famous.

If Chen Chuan really wanted to see the successor’s face, he would first have to find a way to become an Inner Sect Disciple, then fight his way up to the position of Holy Son.

Only by becoming a Holy Son would he have a chance.

Chen Chuan fell silent, but his heart had suddenly cleared.

Though this path was difficult, the goal was incredibly clear.

He wanted to confirm whether that mysterious successor of the Holy Lord was indeed Ji Siyu.

To do that, he had to reach a high enough position to earn the right to speak with her.

Seeing Chen Chuan’s silence, Wang Lan thought he was discouraged and smiled to change the subject:

”Junior Brother Chen, since you’ve just arrived at the Holy Land, you should first familiarize yourself with the environment and the daily life of us low-level Disciples.”

Then, the two of them took turns introducing the rules for Outer Sect Disciples to Chen Chuan.

As a Disciple of the Taiyi Holy Land, one could receive a fixed amount of Cultivation resources every month.

But at the same time, one had to complete basic tasks assigned by the Holy Land.

For example, tending to the Spirit Beast garden, cleaning specific areas, assisting in the dining hall, looking after the medicinal fields, and so on.

If the monthly quota was not met, Cultivation resources would be deducted accordingly.

In addition, Disciples could use their identity jade Tokens to accept various extra missions issued by the Sect.

The higher the difficulty of the mission, the more contribution points one would receive upon completion.

These contribution points could be exchanged within the Sect for items needed for Cultivation.

After listening to their introduction, Chen Chuan had a preliminary understanding of the Taiyi Holy Land’s operating model.

This was a place that encouraged competition and valued contribution.

One could not survive here through ease, let alone reach the peak.

He looked up toward the highest peak deep within the Holy Land, where palaces were faintly visible amidst the swirling mist, his gaze resolute.

Whether it was to find Ji Siyu or to go further in this vast world of martial arts, he had to increase his strength as quickly as possible.
