After bidding farewell to Jiang Changsheng, Jiang Xinyao immediately returned to the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele.
Someone was currently challenging the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele, so Qin Hao waited quietly outside.
With a flash of red light, a figure retreated from the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele. Seeing this, the surrounding members of the Jiang family immediately went up to him:
"Brother Ziheng, you are so amazing! You actually passed the third level, and now the prodigy projection on the third level has been replaced by you!"
"Wow, the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele records the top one hundred strongest prodigies of the Jiang family since we obtained it. Brother Ziheng, it's truly incredible that you could break through three levels in a row."
Faced with the crowd's flattery, Jiang Ziheng was full of pride inwardly, but on his face, he appeared completely unconcerned: "It's just average. I merely passed three levels, it's not worth mentioning."
"If you know it's not worth mentioning, then step aside and don't block the way!"
Qin Hao had been waiting for a long time. This guy named Jiang Ziheng kept blocking the entrance of the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele, pretending not to care on the surface while greatly enjoying the praise of the people around him.
Feeling a bit impatient, Qin Hao immediately stepped forward and shoved Jiang Ziheng aside.
Pushed away by Qin Hao, Jiang Ziheng froze for a moment. Watching Qin Hao enter the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele, he turned to ask the clansmen beside him:
"Who is this guy wearing a mask? He's so arrogant!"
The surrounding clansmen replied that they had never seen Qin Hao before:
"Brother Ziheng, we haven't seen this guy before. He was brought back by Her Highness the Imperial Daughter. She gave her qualification to him, so he should be an outsider."
Hearing this, Jiang Ziheng quickly turned his head to look at Jiang Xinyao not far away:
"Cousin Xinyao, how could you give away the fortuitous opportunity of our Jiang family to someone else?"
Jiang Xinyao glanced at Jiang Ziheng indifferently and snorted coldly: "I can give it to whoever I want. Is it any of your business? It's my qualification, and I didn't say anything, so why are you anxious?"
"You!" Jiang Ziheng was rendered speechless by Jiang Xinyao's retort.
Seeing this, the nearby Jiang family members were also infuriated by Jiang Xinyao's action of turning her elbow outward. That was the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele! The ultimate treasure of the Jiang family.
They, the members of the Jiang family, didn't even have the qualification to enter it, yet now Qin Hao, an outsider, had the chance to go inside. How could they feel balanced in their hearts?
"Brother Ziheng, just let him enter. It's not like he can obtain fortune just by going in. If his strength is lacking, he might even have his fortune plundered by the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele."
Having just experienced the terrifying aspects of the ancient prodigies inside the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele, Jiang Ziheng nodded: "Indeed, the projections of the ancient prodigies inside the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele are all incredibly powerful. Even I almost failed on the first level..."
Before Jiang Ziheng could finish his sentence, the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele flashed with a dazzling blue light, which was the sign of clearing a level.
For a moment, all the Jiang family members present looked at each other in dismay.
"He passed the first level?"
"No way, how long has it been since he went in, and he already passed the first level? Are you kidding me? The projection on the first level is our Jiang family's Immortal King Chiyan, a supreme mighty figure who was only one step away from becoming an emperor!"
Before the Jiang family members could finish speaking, a second blue light lit up.
Such a fast clearance speed made Jiang Xinyao's two uncles change their expressions: "Even Immortal King Bingpo on the second level couldn't stop him for a single breath?"
The two looked at each other, both seeing shock on the other's face.
"So, so amazing! Is this his strength? Only a person like this is the Dao companion I long for!" Jiang Xinyao looked at the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele with two blue rings of light, her eyes sparkling with stars.
Inside the stele, Qin Hao curled his lips: "How boring. It would be great if this Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele wasn't monopolized by the Jiang family. That way, I could fight against the top one hundred strongest prodigies in the history of the Three Realms and Nine Heavens. The top one hundred strongest in the history of the Jiang family are too weak."
Saying this, Qin Hao deactivated his Heavenly Phoenix Divine Body, Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart, and Innate Dao Body, leaving only his Dual Pupils active. At first, he thought the prodigies in this stele were very strong, so he played his trump cards right from the start, only to find out that he was making a mountain out of a molehill.
What happened next completely exceeded the expectations of everyone in the Jiang family.
The third ring, the fourth ring, the fifth ring...
"What! It took me a full ten days of challenging to leave my projection on the third level, and it was broken by him so effortlessly?"
Jiang Ziheng's expression completely froze, and a huge sense of frustration made him want to leave this place.
The runes on the base of the Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele lit up upwards at a steady speed, ring after ring, like ignited beacon towers.
"Ten rings, twenty rings, thirty rings."
Second Uncle Jiang's face was full of horror:
"This, how is this possible! Xin, Xinyao, what kind of monster did she bring back home? The projections inside this Primordial Fortune Plundering Stele are the top one hundred strongest prodigies in the history of our Jiang family. How can he breeze through as if entering an uninhabited land? What kind of evildoer is this?"
Third Uncle Jiang was even more dumbfounded:
"Are, are you kidding me! How much time has passed? He has already rushed to the sixtieth level? Could it be that he is instantly killing those peerless prodigies inside the stele?"
"After the sixtieth level, those are the projections left by the Immortal Emperors of our Jiang family. This kid shouldn't be able to advance any further!"
Inside the stele, upon reaching the sixtieth level, Qin Hao found that he could no longer violently push forward relying on his ultra-high-quality spiritual energy, life level, and the power of the Dual Pupils.
After all, these were the projections left by the Immortal Emperors of the Jiang family in their youth. Each one brought Qin Hao endless oppression. These people didn't have a physique as good as Qin Hao's, and their divine abilities were on par with his, yet they could suppress him in battle.
"Combat experience! My combat experience is too lacking! At most, it has only been three months since I transmigrated. The original owner was just waiting to die. My combat experience is still too far behind these young Immortal Emperors who grew up in mountains of corpses and seas of blood."
After a sigh, Qin Hao had no choice but to go all out, activating the power of the Dual Pupils, Innate Dao Body, Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart, and Heavenly Phoenix Divine Body.
Relying on the power of several top-tier physiques, Qin Hao managed to smooth out the disadvantage brought by his lack of combat experience.
"Seventieth level! My god, that's the Third Ancestor of our Jiang family, born with a Supreme Bone and mastering the laws of life and death. How, how did he pass it?"
"Seventy-fifth level, his advancement speed is a bit too terrifying, isn't it? Could it be that even when facing the young Immortal Emperors of our Jiang family, he still encounters no obstacles?"
"Eightieth level, ninetieth level, ninety-ninth level."
After three days of fighting, Qin Hao finally reached the one hundredth level.
The square outside was dead silent. The commotion here had spread throughout the entire Jiang family on the first day. They all knew that Jiang Xinyao had brought back an outsider who was clearing the levels at an unprecedented speed.
Even Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors were attracted by this. Although they did not come in person, their divine senses covered this place.
"Heavens, even the First Ancestor of the Jiang family, the great figure who established the Desolate Ancient Jiang family, couldn't stop this outsider? What exactly is his background?"
"Don't sell yourselves short. The strength of a projection is, after all, weaker than the original body. Furthermore, this guy is in the Nascent Soul Realm, so the patriarchs he is facing are also at the Nascent Soul Realm. Which of our patriarchs didn't become exponentially more formidable the further they advanced in their cultivation?"
Unlike the shock and indignation of the other clan members, Jiang Xinyao covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes wide and her heart pounding wildly. She knew Qin Hao was strong, but she had never imagined he could be powerful to such an unbelievable extent.
In a mere three days, he had defeated ninety-nine of the Jiang family's patriarchs, leaving only the final one hundredth floor. He was about to become the very first person to clear every single level since the Primordial Fortune-Plundering Stele was brought into the Jiang family!
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack.

And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races!

and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!

lity and could only live as an ordinary mortal. He only wished to live a peaceful life. Yet he didn't know— The dog he adopted, because it ate his food, became a legendary demon king. The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him. Even the skeletons he looked down on the most were ominous demon kings that suppressed countless worlds. Many years later, looking at the void shattered with a punch, Ye Feng murmured to himself: It turns out the peerless kings were myself all along...
