shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the black crystal stone that flashed briefly in He Pingsheng’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the people who had emerged with He Pingsheng from that barrier, pointing and whispering at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knew He Pingsheng had taken the Spear Intent Crystal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh… huh… huh…” Jin Lan looked at He Pingsheng, her eyes filled with anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait for me!” He Pingsheng said to Jin Lan, “I’m going back in!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“See if I can claim that divine spear!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?” Jin Lan shuddered, “You… you’re going back in?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm!” He Pingsheng said, “I want to try… but I’m more afraid I’ll cause some earth-shattering commotion!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go wait for me where we first met!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No matter whether I get the divine spear or not, I’ll come find you there!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright!” Jin Lan nodded, “You’re not just trying to get rid of me, are you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng said, “If I wanted to leave, you couldn’t stop me anyway—why would I bother pretending?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine!” Jin Lan turned away, “I hope you succeed!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she turned and left immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After descending the peak, she mounted a giant bat and headed toward the place where she’d first found He Pingsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng, meanwhile, strode forward toward the luminous membrane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several who tried to attack him were dodged by his sudden burst of speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one landed a hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he reached the black luminous membrane, He Pingsheng again pressed his hand against its black surface, then gently closed his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hummm… hummm… hummm…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The void trembled slightly, and He Pingsheng reappeared within the barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a leap, he arrived before the massive divine spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, He Pingsheng didn’t know how much of the original owner’s spiritual sense remained inside the spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had to try!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng reached into his storage pouch and pulled out a porcelain bottle, then poured out a top-grade [Dual Spirit Pill].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A top-grade pill could boost spiritual sense to fifteen hundred zhang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after thinking it over, he put the top-grade Dual Spirit Pill back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d take an exquisite one instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt the top-grade wasn’t enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the top-grade proved insufficient, swallowing an exquisite one later would just waste a top-grade pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to swallow the exquisite one outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The exquisite Dual Spirit Pill was instantly swallowed by He Pingsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same moment, his spiritual sense began to surge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng closed his eyes, letting his spiritual sense expand violently within his mind sea, spreading outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five hundred zhang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One thousand zhang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two thousand zhang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three thousand zhang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four thousand zhang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five thousand zhang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His spiritual sense coverage surged past five thousand zhang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tenfold!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After consuming the exquisite pill, his spiritual sense had exploded to ten times its original strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng stared in shock: this was equivalent to the spiritual sense of a Golden Core peak cultivator!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it would last fifteen days!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder it was an exquisite Dual Spirit Pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exquisite-grade items and top-grade ones were entirely different things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next instant, He Pingsheng’s massive spiritual sense slammed into the hundred-zhang divine spear before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The residual spiritual sense within the spear was still strong, but after so many years, it had slowly rusted away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, it was roughly equivalent to a Golden Core mid-stage cultivator’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, when He Pingsheng’s spiritual sense struck, the lingering soul was instantly shredded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, He Pingsheng’s own spiritual sense suffered massive depletion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face turned pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, he succeeded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom… boom… boom…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black divine spear, one zhang thick and a hundred zhang tall, suddenly shrank, then transformed into a three-inch-long object resting in He Pingsheng’s palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just slightly longer than his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the black luminous membrane above him collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng had no time to examine the rank of the spear in his hand—he instantly turned into a gust of wind and fled downhill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him, countless figures chased after him desperately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That bastard took the divine spear!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heavens! From now on, Divine General Mountain has no divine spear!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it… that’s our Shangdang Commandery’s property—stop him!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless people surged after He Pingsheng like a flood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone asked, “Who is that man?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where’s he from?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone replied, “He’s Shi Yuan from the Beast Taming Immortal Sect of Dingxiang Commandery!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t let him escape!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Worse—he’s moving too fast!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t he?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng’s magic power surged violently into his feet, his soles blazing with golden light, his speed instantly doubling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With just double speed, he left the countless cultivators far behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In half a stick of incense, He Pingsheng vanished into the mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No good…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We absolutely cannot let him get away!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He destroyed our Divine General Mountain!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Taking the Spear Intent Crystal was bad enough—but now he stole our divine spear!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go—hurry and inform the Elders!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop him at all costs!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, members of the imperial family shattered their Life-and-Death Talismans and teleported away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elder… Elder… something’s wrong!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A disciple in black Daoist robes teleported out of the secret realm and rushed to the Elder’s side, panting, “Major incident—major incident…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cultivator’s voice was loud, instantly drawing the attention of every cultivator and Elder in the square.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, the white-haired cultivator Long Yuan was among them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is it?” An old man looked at the black-robed disciple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black-robed disciple said, “The spear’s gone… someone pulled it out…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The spear’s gone?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, everyone in the square was utterly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Yuan leapt a hundred zhang in a single step, appearing before the black-robed disciple, grabbing his robe collar, his expression wild with urgency: “Explain clearly—what happened?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes!” the black-robed disciple said, “Senior, inside, a cultivator claimed the black spear atop Divine General Mountain!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The black barrier has also been shattered!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We all chased him, but we couldn't catch him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Yuan's heart was swept by a towering storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh my heavens...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who is this person, possessing such extraordinary fortune? He took the divine spear that countless others had failed to claim over millennia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that the true bearer of great fortune is still inside?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or did Wang Dun sneak in as well?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know where that man came from?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Yuan's voice trembled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black-robed disciple said: \"We know.

Shi Yuan?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Yuan shot to his feet: \"Him again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, Long Yuan's mind cleared completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew a deep breath, his brows tightly furrowed: No—this is wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The true bearer of great fortune is neither He Kunlun nor Wang Dun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is this fellow named Shi Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wrong!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wrong!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could we have been wrong from the very beginning?\u003C\u002Fp>",1134,"2026-06-21T04:09:00.242Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","c23fa6004e44c749e65a5f5ddacd94de0e509e9b2913d97aad5142f2e1a2ba81","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-224","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-222",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-treasure-immortal-basin-cover.jpg"]
