System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

Qiongyu Tower sits quietly behind the artificial hill and lake, its entire body as white as snow, resembling a transcendent celestial palace, exuding a sacred and mysterious aura.

As soon as Chen Xuan stepped into this place, he immediately saw dozens of Dao soldiers and guards dressed in silver armor, with powerful auras reaching the Myriad Manifestations Realm.

"Young Master!" Upon seeing Qing Tian Xiao Lou, the leading silver-armored soldier rushed over and knelt on one knee with utmost respect, offering a solemn salute.

After Qing Tian Xiao Lou gave a brief explanation, the silver-armored soldiers all looked at Chen Xuan with eyes full of awe and shock.

Qiongyu Tower was originally built to exclusively receive distinguished guests of the Qingtian Clan, such as representatives of other noble kings, dignified special envoys of the Xuanxiao royal family, and even some powerful anti-void immortals.

At this moment, a young man whose strength is only at the early stage of the Opening Mansion Realm is actually able to be arranged to stay in the Jade Pavilion. Just how powerful must this person's background and mysterious energy be?

"Yes, young master, rest assured, we will do our utmost to ensure your safety during this time."

Qingtian Xiaolou nodded slightly, then took Chen Xuan's hand affectionately and said with a smile, "Brother Chen Xuan, come on, let me show you around this Qiongyu Tower. There are some wonderful things inside."

Then, under the respectful gazes of the silver-armored Dao soldiers, Chen Xuan and Qing Tian Xiao Lou slowly entered the magnificent palace, a symbol of their esteemed status.

Chen Xuan had assumed that the treasures Qing Tian Xiao Lou spoke of would be antiques or similar items, but to his surprise, they were merely some seemingly ordinary paintings. They resembled ink paintings, and at a glance, their quality was roughly equivalent to the works of those astonishing masters of traditional Chinese painting from his previous life.

Seeing Chen Xuan's slightly puzzled expression, Qing Tian Xiao Lou smiled and said softly, "Brother Chen Xuan, why don't you use your Dao Eye to take a look at the contents of this scroll?"

Chen Xuan was slightly taken aback, then slowly closed his eyes, and then opened them again, his mysterious divine sense perspective now activated. After activating his divine sense vision, Chen Xuan was completely stunned when he looked at the nine paintings, his face filled with shock.

"Is this a manifestation of the Dao?" Qing Tian Xiao Lou was slightly shocked, able to tell at a glance that the scroll was a manifestation of the Dao. He looked at Chen Xuan with astonishment, as if looking at a monster, and said with a smile, "That's right. These nine paintings were left by a great master who had reached the Great Perfection of the Dao of Ink and Wash and was about to undergo tribulation to become a Celestial Immortal. The mountains and waters inside the scroll are filled with the perfect Dao of Ink and Wash, which is extremely profound."

Qingtian Xiaolou laughed and said, "Later, my father bought it at a very high price in the bustling Wanbaoshan in the capital, and that's why it's hung here for distinguished guests to visit and contemplate the Dao."

Chen Xuan was slightly shocked. A complete Dao of Ink and Wash?

No wonder he couldn't understand many of the mysterious and profound places.

"Come, Brother Chen Xuan, look at these potted plants." With that, Qing Tian Xiao Lou eagerly pulled Chen Xuan inside.

"What is this?" Chen Xuan asked, looking at the potted plant in the antique jar in front of him. "This should be fake."

"Hahaha, of course it's fake. Even Emperor Xuanxiao doesn't have the real thing." Qingtian Xiaolou chuckled. "This is the Chaos Fruit Tree, a spiritual root of heaven and earth that existed before the separation of primordial chaos."

"The Chaos Fruit Tree?" Chen Xuan murmured, feeling that he had greatly broadened his horizons during this visit to the Qingtian Marquis's residence. "What are the effects of eating the fruit?"

Qing Tian Xiao Lou shrugged, revealing a helpless expression, and said, "I don't know about that. Not only do I not know, but I doubt even my father knows. This bonsai model was something my first Qing Tian Marquis saw by chance in a broken void in the mysterious Divine Demon Medicine Garden of the Ancient Immortal Realm."

"Is this the ancient road to the Immortal Realm that Lord Marquis mentioned before?" Chen Xuan asked, recalling what had been said earlier.

“Of course not. The Immortal Realm Ancient Road was merely a second refuge for immortals and demons who fled in panic when the continent was once torn apart. The place where my ancestor saw this Chaos Fruit was inside that ancient and mysterious Immortal Realm. How could it be the same place?” Qing Tian Xiao Lou shook his head and said.

"Too."

Just as the two were chatting happily, a beautiful young woman dressed in purple gracefully strolled up behind them. The woman approached and bowed respectfully, saying, "Young master, the celestial wine and delicacies are ready."

Qing Tian Xiao Lou nodded and looked at Chen Xuan, saying, "Let's go eat first, and then I'll tell you about the interesting things in Qing Tian City."

Chen Xuan nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Brother Xiaolou."

Then, Chen Xuan and Bai Li, who was quiet and obedient, followed Qing Tian Xiao Lou into an elegant and quiet room.

The banquets held at the VIP reception hall of the Marquis of Qingtian's mansion are all of the highest standard and exceptional quality.

Chen Xuan had never seen such a high-grade immortal wine in Dead Sea City or even at the Fishing Dragon Platform in Azure Sky City. It was the masterpiece of a true master brewer.

"Come, Chen Xuan, this cup is for you." Qing Tian Xiao Lou held up his wine cup and looked at Chen Xuan with a sincere expression. "If it weren't for your righteous help this time, my sister probably would never have been able to return to the tribe."

Faced with this wondrous and rare Earth-Rank Immortal Wine, which he had never tasted before, Chen Xuan couldn't help but silently recite the system panel in his mind.

Before arriving at Qingtian City, during the long journey, Chen Xuan not only dared not actively absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to expand his Purple Mansion Lake, but he also ate spiritual wines and spirit wines with great restraint.

The fear is that I might reach the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm before I can formally join a sect.

At this moment, looking at the cultivation level section of the system panel, Chen Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. After three months of travel, although Chen Xuan did not deliberately expand his Purple Mansion, his Extreme Dao cultivation level had increased by more than ten levels.

Fortunately, Chen Xuan has now arrived in Qingtian City, but his cultivation level is still some distance from the mid-stage of the Opening Mansion Realm.

According to the realm division, the first 300 levels of the Ultimate Path are the early stage, 600 levels are the middle stage, and 900-1000 levels correspond to the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm and the Perfect Realm, respectively.

"Brother Xiaolou, please!"

After drinking a cup of Earth-Rank Immortal Wine, Chen Xuan felt every cell in his body cheering and jumping for joy. Streams of incredibly hot energy not only traveled rapidly along his eight extraordinary meridians, but even Chen Xuan's face unconsciously turned slightly red.

"Haha, Chen Xuan's alcohol tolerance is not good." Seeing Chen Xuan like this, Qing Tian Xiao Lou also laughed and poured wine again, saying, "This wine is called Earth Fire Brew. It is made from the essence of the magma vein that is 10,000 meters deep in the North Sea, combined with the rare and precious materials that earth-rank winemakers have painstakingly searched for over many years. It takes at least ten years and at most a hundred years to finally brew it."

Qing Tian Xiao Lou looked at Chen Xuan and smacked his lips, then laughed and said, "I'm only able to drink this because of you, Brother Chen Xuan. Otherwise, I wouldn't be qualified to have the Spirit Wine Shop deliver it to me alone."

Chen Xuan was slightly shocked upon hearing this. "How much spirit liquid would this pot of wine be worth on the market?"

Upon hearing this, Qing Tian Xiao Lou held up two fingers and said, "A pot of ten-year-old spirit liquid is priced at 200 jin according to Wanbaoshan. This is a hundred-year-old one, so the price will be ten times higher."

"2000 catties of spirit liquid? Just this one pot of wine?" Chen Xuan's eyes widened, feeling his worldview shattered once again. "Is this stuff more worthwhile than 2000 catties of source liquid for cultivation?"
