The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

In the hazy morning light, Jiang Chuan followed Duo Duofei's directions and arrived at her door without much trouble.

That rustic wooden door, seemingly bearing the marks of time, stood there quietly, awaiting its owner's return.

"Do you want to come in with me?"

Jiang Chuan turned to look at Duo Duo Fei beside him.

"It's okay, I have this."

After Duoduo finished speaking, she took out two pills from her bosom, handed one to Jiang Chuan, and took the other herself.

As the pill entered her mouth, Duoduofei's body began to become transparent until it completely disappeared from Jiang Chuan's sight.

Jiang Chuan stood there in astonishment, feeling both amazed and incredulous at what he was seeing.

"Where is he?" he muttered to himself.

Just then, Duoduofei's voice suddenly came from beside her: "I've been standing here the whole time. Quickly take that pill, and then you'll be able to see me."

Jiang Chuan came to his senses and looked at the place where Duo Duofei had disappeared. He took the pill, and as the medicine took effect, his vision gradually became clear, and Duo Duofei's figure reappeared in front of him.

With everything ready, Jiang Chuan took a deep breath, put on the disguise mask in his hand, and made sure that his appearance was completely different from before.

He walked to the old wooden door and knocked on it forcefully, the sound crisp and clear.

A moment later, the gate slowly opened, and a servant dressed in coarse linen clothes appeared before Jiang Chuan.

As he opened the door, he curiously sized up Jiang Chuan, casually striking up a conversation as he walked: "May I ask what business you have with my master?"

Jiang Chuan's eyes were sharp, and his tone was serious: "It's a very important matter."

The servant seemed to be influenced by Jiang Chuan's serious attitude and said, "Please wait a moment, I will go and inform him right away."

Jiang Chuan nodded without saying anything more.

After about ten minutes, the servants led Jiang Chuan through winding corridors and finally brought him to the mansion of Duo Duo Fei's father, Duo Duo Ju.

The mansion was magnificent, with carved beams and painted rafters, revealing the grandeur of a prominent family.

As soon as Jiang Chuan arrived at the entrance of Duo Duo's mansion, he heard a quarrel coming from inside.

The sound was sharp and intense, seemingly coming from deep within the mansion.

Jiang Chuan paused for a moment, wondering to himself what the argument was about.

"What do you want from me?" Duoduo walked to the door, her brows furrowed.

He was clearly not welcoming of Jiang Chuan's arrival, but he still opened the door and let Jiang Chuan in.

Jiang Chuan walked into the study, casually found a chair and sat down, his eyes calm, as if everything was under his control, and began to recount the story of Duo Duofei being kidnapped by him.

"How dare you?" Duoduo had just sat down when she heard Jiang Chuan's words. Her body jolted, and she almost jumped up from her chair.

"What's the big deal?" Jiang Chuan seemed unconcerned about Duo Duo's reaction, his tone casual and relaxed, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

He continued, "Which is more important, your daughter or your treasure? Let's begin the exchange."

"This is my home. Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up if you come back so openly?" Duoduo walked up to Jiang Chuan, looked him up and down, her eyes filled with wariness and doubt.

Jiang Chuan smiled, his eyes calm: "I'm just here to go through the motions, I don't want to cause trouble."

"How can I believe you based on just one sentence?" Duoduo desperately wanted Jiang Chuan to hand over something convincing.

Jiang Chuan turned his head to look at Duo Duo Fei sitting next to him. Then she took a jade pendant from her waist and handed it to Jiang Chuan. Jiang Chuan then handed the jade pendant to Duo Duo Fei and said, "This is something your daughter always carries with her. You should be able to recognize it."

Duoduo took the jade pendant, examined it carefully for a moment, and her expression gradually became solemn.

This jade pendant was his daughter Duoduofei's most cherished accessory, so he naturally wouldn't mistake it for something else.

“This is… Fei’er’s jade pendant?” Duoduo asked.

Jiang Chuan nodded: "That's right. The jade pendant has proven everything. Your daughter is in my hands."

Duoduo gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, and tried to calm her excitement before saying, "That's wonderful!"

Seeing this, Jiang Chuan couldn't help but wonder if Duo Duo's reaction was a bit too intense.

He frowned and asked, "What's going on? Why are you so agitated?"

Duoduo sighed and said, "Of course I'm heartbroken that my daughter has been kidnapped, but as you can see, I'm not an impulsive person. My daughter has lived in a sweet environment since she was little and has never experienced any hardship. I'm worried that she won't be able to shoulder the responsibilities of this family, so I'm letting her stay with you for a while to gain more experience."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan was shocked and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The world is so big, and there are so many wonders."

He originally thought this was just a regular kidnapping case, and that following standard procedures, the kidnappers would be exchanged for the kidnappers, and the matter should be resolved smoothly.

But Duoduo's reaction surprised him, and even seemed absurd.

He was somewhat puzzled when the other party expressed their gratitude to him.

“You can’t do that. Sometimes I have a fiery temper and I might do some extreme things.”

After Jiang Chuan finished speaking, he had Duo Duo pull him up from his seat and led him to the place where the treasures were stored.

Although Duoduo's actions were rough, her eyes revealed her affection for Jiang Chuan.

He dared to do things that no one else in Qing City dared to do; he had guts, and I admired him.

Jiang Chuan was pulled so hard by Duo Duo that he was a little unsteady on his feet, but he wasn't angry.

Then I heard Duoduo say, "The more intense the better. I was worried that if you were too gentle, I wouldn't feel at ease if my daughter was kidnapped by you."

Jiang Chuan stopped and turned to look at Duo Duo Ju: "What do you mean by this? Aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of? Come with me."

Duoduo's voice was firm as she pulled Jiang Chuan's hand through a series of narrow passages, finally arriving at a spacious secret room.

This is where the treasures are stored.

Jiang Chuan entered the secret room, and a dazzling array of sights immediately appeared before his eyes.

The treasures stored here are all antiques, each exuding antiquity and mystery.

Among these treasures, some are priceless, some are legendary items, and some even have miraculous healing effects on the body.

Jiang Chuan's gaze swept among the treasures, and he already had a target in mind.

"I won't stand on ceremony." Jiang Chuan said to Duo Duo Ju, then ignored him and moved like a fish among the treasures, his movements nimble and skillful, clearly showing that he knew these treasures very well.

After listening to this, Duoduo left the place to prepare a meal.

After seeing her father leave, Duoduofei started talking to Jiang Chuan.

“These treasures won’t do. Come with me.” After saying that, Duoduofei walked towards a wall.

A picture hung on the wall, depicting an exquisitely crafted bracelet that radiated a chilling power. "Jiang Chuan, this bracelet is extraordinary," Ling Juan said, standing on Jiang Chuan's shoulder with her arms crossed.

Jiang Chuan nodded slightly; with his perception, he also sensed something amiss.

While Jiang Chuan and Ling Juan were talking, Duo Duo Fei had already taken down the picture and carefully placed it on the table next to her.

“The bracelet in this picture is real and can improve the wearer’s strength. As for how to remove it, that’s a problem,” Duoduofei said, frowning.

Jiang Chuan stood beside the diagram, rubbing his chin as he pondered various possibilities.

“Perhaps we can try using the other treasures on this wall to assist us,” Ling Juan suddenly said.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan turned his gaze to the other treasures on the wall.

Besides the picture, there was an ancient longsword, a mysterious jade box, and a string of beads that shimmered with a faint light on the wall.

“This sword seems to contain immense power; perhaps it can be used to unlock the secrets of the bracelet,” Jiang Chuan said, pointing to the longsword.

Duoduofei nodded in agreement: "That's right, this sword is called the Void-Breaking Sword. Legend has it that it was forged by a sword immortal in ancient times and has the magical power to destroy all illusions."

Jiang Chuan picked up the Void-Breaking Sword, feeling the coldness and heaviness emanating from its blade. He closed his eyes and concentrated all his senses on the sword, trying to find clues to unlock the secrets of the bracelet.

At the same time, Ling Juan placed the jade box and the string of beads on the table and began to study their origins and functions.

“This jade box seems to have storage space. Perhaps we can put the bracelet diagram inside and see if we can find a way to crack it,” Ling Juan said, pointing to the jade box.

Jiang Chuan nodded and carefully placed the bracelet design into the jade box.

Instantly, a faint fluctuation emanated from the jade box, as if the bracelet design was establishing some kind of connection with the jade box.

Just then, the Void-Breaking Sword suddenly emitted a clear sword cry, and its blade emitted a dazzling light.

Jiang Chuan opened his eyes and saw the sword tip pointing at the jade box, as if it were guiding something.

"It seems that the Void-Breaking Sword has found a way to unlock the secret of the bracelet," Jiang Chuan said.

Jiang Chuan's gaze was fixed on the bracelet that slowly emerged from the picture.

As it was fully revealed, a faint, ethereal light emanated from the bracelet, illuminating Jiang Chuan's face and giving him an indescribable sense of tranquility and mystery.

He carefully walked up to the bracelet, reached out his palm, and gently removed it from the picture.

The bracelet felt cool to the touch, but its texture was surprisingly warm and smooth, as if it were carved from some kind of high-grade jade. It emitted a faint warmth that made people feel comfortable.

Jiang Chuan put the bracelet on his wrist, and instantly, a faint stream of energy flowed into his body from the bracelet.

He closed his eyes and felt the energy flowing through his meridians, as if an invisible hand was massaging his dantian.

As the airflow moved, Jiang Chuan felt the true qi in his dantian begin to become active. The warm feeling was like the warm sun in spring, making his dantian area feel warmer and more comfortable than ever before.

He could clearly feel that the true energy in his dantian was growing at an unprecedented speed, as if the bracelet contained some kind of mysterious power that was stimulating the potential within him.

"This...this bracelet actually has such power?" Jiang Chuan was shocked.

He opened his eyes and looked at the bracelet in his hand.

A faint halo began to emanate from its surface. Gently stroking the bracelet and feeling the changes it brought, my body seemed to become lighter, my mind became more focused, and even my breathing became much smoother.

"Jiang Chuan, your strength seems to have improved!"

Ling Juan jumped off Jiang Chuan's shoulder.

It seemed to sense the powerful aura surging within Jiang Chuan's body, a sign that he was about to break through to the Heavenly Realm.

Jiang Chuan's body was shrouded in a faint white mist, which drifted like a light veil, yet carried a hint of mystery.

"Jiang Chuan, congratulations! You're about to break through to the Heavenly Realm." Duo Duo Fei knew what the light screen emanating from Jiang Chuan's body was; she had seen it when her pet, the Seven-Colored Divine Dragon, broke through to the Heavenly Realm, and it was exactly the same scene.

At this moment, her face was full of joy, and she was happy for Jiang Chuan.

"You've already broken through?" Jiang Chuan stared at Duo Duofei in disbelief, never expecting that he could reach the Heavenly Rank in such a short time.

After saying that, Jiang Chuan looked at Duo Duofei and continued, "Is there a secret room here that gathers spiritual energy?"

"Come with me." Duoduofei led Jiang Chuan to a corner where there was a secret room, a place for cultivation and meditation.

The door to the secret chamber was engraved with intricate runes and emitted a faint spiritual aura, clearly indicating that it had been carefully arranged.

Jiang Chuan went inside and closed the door.

Then begin to remove the clothes you are wearing.

Knowing that clothing might be damaged during the breakthrough to the Heavenly Realm, he made preparations in advance.

With everything ready, Jiang Chuan sat cross-legged on a cold stone floor.

The stone ground was incredibly hard, as if it could absorb all external forces.

Jiang Chuan closed his eyes and began to adjust his breathing, allowing the spiritual energy within his body to flow slowly.

He felt the energy surging from his dantian like a tidal wave, as if it were about to engulf him.

Jiang Chuan took a deep breath and began to compress this energy.

He wants to use this power to break through the Heavenly Realm and reach a higher realm.

As the compression continued, fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on Jiang Chuan's forehead.

Compressing this force is no easy task and requires tremendous effort.

Outside the secret room, Duoduofei spoke to Lingjuan: "Little one, see if there are any treasures here that you like."

"I'm not called Little Dot, I have a name, I'm called Lingjuan." Lingjuan seemed a little displeased with the nickname Little Dot, and a hint of dissatisfaction was revealed in its bright eyes.

"Alright, alright, Spirit Scroll."

Duoduofei smiled and corrected the way she was addressed. She walked to the bookshelf, gently brushed away the dust, and then took out a scroll, handing it to Lingjuan: "Take a look at this, it might be useful to you."

Ling Juan took the scroll and gently turned it over with her small hands. The words on the scroll flowed like water, and every stroke revealed an ancient aura.

Upon closer inspection, it discovered that the scroll contained not ordinary spells or weapons, but a secret method for increasing body size.

This is undoubtedly a masterpiece for a petite spirit scroll.

It has always been dissatisfied with its size, especially when compared to those tall and mighty spirit beasts.

This secret method might help it change its current situation and gain a higher status.

Lingjuan's little hands trembled slightly, her heart filled with anticipation.

He carefully unfurled the scroll, inside which the text and illustrations detailed how to gradually increase the size of one's body through special breathing techniques and internal energy cultivation methods.

The scroll also included precautions, reminding cultivators to avoid qi deviation during the process. (End of Chapter)
