Amid the astonished gazes of the crowd, Wang Xiu's robes burst open. His robust upper body was revealed, cast in a golden hue and erupting with divine light as countless runes surged into the heavens. An unimaginable aura emanated from him, so powerful that everyone was shaken, forced to retreat again and again by its divine might. At that moment, Wang Xiu resembled a war god from an ancient era, awe-inspiring and majestic. It felt as if he could shatter the world with a single punch; the power of his physical body was beyond estimation.

Even Xiang Tiange's eyes went wide, his shock immeasurable. He prided himself on his physical strength, believing that few among his peers could match him. Yet, faced with the current Wang Xiu, he felt a profound sense of apprehension and fear, utterly devoid of any thought of challenging him.

"What kind of divine skill is this?" someone exclaimed, their eyes bulging and their body trembling. The aura was vast and sacred, overwhelmingly bright, supremely forceful and pure! It was clearly a supreme technique for body cultivation. But as a disciple of the Sanqing Divination Sect, where could Wang Xiu have possibly learned such a divine art?

All the chosen geniuses were dumbfounded. They had believed they understood Wang Xiu well enough, knowing he was a top-tier prodigy of their generation, capable of contending with the likes of Saint Heirs. Now, however, they realized how little they truly knew. This disciple from the Divination Sect was far too mysterious. It seemed he always had another card up his sleeve, making him completely unfathomable.

"Master of formations, master of the Thunder Technique... and now he's even a master of body cultivation, with a physical form this extraordinary. Junior Brother Wang Xiu... you truly hide your strength well!" Even the normally carefree Li Zuoyue was stunned, her expression complex.

Xiang Tiange's face twitched as he recalled their first meeting, when Wang Xiu had lavished him with praise. At the time, he had shamelessly accepted it all, boasting about his own strength and extraordinary physical cultivation. Thinking back on it now, even he, with his thick skin, couldn't help but flush red with embarrassment.

From within the Soul-Attracting Bell, Jiang Yourong's voice was full of spirited pride. "These little brats, making a fuss over nothing! If they knew that this boy's wonders don't stop here—that he's just as strong in other areas—wouldn't they faint from shock?"

Jiang Ling'er suppressed a laugh, a smug little smile on her face. She was delighted that she knew secrets about Wang Xiu that others didn't, and her small face flushed with excitement.

Nearby, Mo Wuwei adjusted her glasses, her red lips lightly pursed as endless ripples danced in her beautiful eyes. Had she heard Jiang Yourong's words, she would have retorted without hesitation. Because she *did* know. She understood her Junior Brother Wang Xiu's greatest strengths far more intimately than anyone else.

The Mighty Heavenly Dragon Subduing Demon Golden Body could fortify one's physical form, providing unrivaled defense. It was a technique that unified both offense and defense. Normally, it was difficult to detect. Once unleashed, however, a blinding Buddhist light would fill the heavens, as if a divine dragon from the Nine Heavens itself had descended to bestow its infinite might upon the user.

But Wang Xiu deliberately suppressed these phenomena to avoid trouble. He merely chanted inwardly: Mighty Heavenly Dragon! He unleashed only half of its power. There was no vision of a Golden Dragon, nor any all-illuminating Buddhist light. It was a display that the average person could not identify.

But against this Dragon Transformation Grass, it was more than enough.

At that moment, Wang Xiu stepped forward. The light from the runes covering his body surged. Ripples vibrated through the surrounding void, sweeping outwards. With a loud BANG, the purple barrier around the Dragon Transformation Grass shattered, the invisible resistance dissipating completely. The Precious Medicine's own blinding radiance softened. Like a tamed wild horse, it grew docile, its powerful repulsive force fading away.

He plucked the Dragon Transformation Grass. A rich, pure essence washed over him, sweeping through his entire body like a warm current invigorating his limbs and bones. A Holy Medicine was truly extraordinary. Just a single whiff strengthened his physical body, raising it to a new level. Even the golden light on his skin grew more solid and condensed. Wang Xiu placed the Dragon Transformation Grass into a dedicated Space Ring, saving it to be properly absorbed and processed later.

The onlookers watched, their eyes burning with envy. They couldn't help but sigh in admiration. Their fellow disciple Wang Xiu, already possessing exceptional talent and endless techniques on par with the Saint Heirs and Saintesses of ancient legacies, had now obtained this Holy Medicine. His path of cultivation was surely destined to become even smoother.

"Junior Brother, we need to leave, quickly!" Xiang Tiange urged, his composure regained and his expression now serious. "We've caused quite a commotion. It won't be long before others arrive!"

The others snapped back to their senses. The emergence of the Dragon Transformation Grass had caused a tremendous uproar. Even the Green Lotus Sky-covering Array that Wang Xiu had set up beforehand hadn't been enough to contain the phenomenon. At this moment, the sky above the area steamed with auspicious qi and was permeated with divine light, as if a supreme holy land had manifested. A vast aura of rosy clouds surged endlessly into the sky from the crack in the earth. Even some Fierce Beasts with low intelligence had been drawn here, their greedy, instinctual roars echoing toward the site.

This was to say nothing of other cultivators and the geniuses from the Immortal Sects. This was a Holy Medicine—a temptation so immense that no one could resist it. In the outside world, even Saints would not hesitate to intervene and snatch it. Things were slightly better within the Holy Realm; the various powers restrained one another, so no one would dare to act so rashly as to interfere in a trial meant for the young chosen. But if Wang Xiu and his group didn't leave now, they would inevitably become a target for all the other Immortal Sect disciples who would soon discover them.

"The Dragon Transformation Grass isn't the only prize here!" Wang Xiu declared, staring intently at the fissure. His eyes emitted a jade-colored fluorescence, as if peering through all secrets. "Beneath this crack lies an even more astonishing fortune!"

After the Natural Ancient Formation had been broken, the secrets of this place were much easier for him to perceive. He could clearly sense an even denser treasure qi emanating from below the fissure, indicating something far greater than a Holy Medicine!

Everyone was stunned. A fortune even more astonishing than a Holy Medicine? What could that possibly be? Could it be the legacy of an Earth Immortal? Or perhaps one of the Ancient Divine Tombs?
