Previously on I Became Invincible After Sweeping The Floor For 70 Years...
Qin Chen obtained the Divine Spirit Source and successfully opened his Divine Sea, officially becoming a cultivator in the Yiyuan Realm. He concealed his breakthrough and returned to his handyman quarters. The next day, he went to a waterfall where official disciples cultivate, encountering their disdain.

The arrival of the maiden in white commanded the gaze of every disciple present, sparking hushed discussions amongst them.
“Senior Ling Ran has the favor of the current Holy Lord, who personally accepted her as his direct disciple. Rumor has it her physique is extraordinary, possessing the legendary King Body. At just 13, she had already attained the Liangyi Realm, and in the past three years, she’s likely reached the Sancai Realm already.”
“I heard she achieved the Sancai Realm three months ago. There are few disciples of her generation within the entire Taiyi Holy Land who are at that level. Moreover, Senior Ling Ran is only 16 this year. We’re the same age, yet she’s already a powerful cultivator in the Sancai Realm. It truly makes us feel inadequate.”
“Soon, the Holy Land will be selecting its Holy Son and Holy Daughter. With Senior Ling Ran’s talent and age, she has a significant chance of being chosen!”
Many disciples spoke in low tones, their gazes fixed on Ling Ran, the Holy Lord’s direct disciple, filled with envy.
She possessed the legendary King Body, exceptional talent, and was the direct disciple of the incumbent Holy Lord. Her prospects of succeeding the current Holy Daughter were certainly high.
Qin Chen couldn’t help but cast a glance at Ling Ran. Her beauty was, indeed, otherworldly. Every movement she made exuded a unique charm, and she appeared intrinsically connected to the heavens and earth.
Furthermore, to have reached the Sancai Realm at such a young age, she must be exceptionally powerful.
One had to understand that each of the ten major realms in the cultivation world represented a chasm of difference, as vast as the sky and the earth.
Opening the divine sea and entering the Yiyuan Realm, officially becoming a cultivator, was merely the initial step.
Any Yiyuan Realm cultivator would possess a strength equivalent to tens of thousands of pounds. In the mortal world, such an individual could easily become the most formidable general, vastly surpassing ordinary individuals.
Entering the Liangyi Realm granted one the ability to soar through the air and traverse beneath the earth. In the mortal world, many would regard such a person as immortal.
Upon ascending to the Sancai Realm, a cultivator’s spiritual wisdom would expand greatly, and they would begin to comprehend the essence of spirits. The cultivator would gain the power to split mountains and cleave stones, wielding terrifying strength.
...
The enhancement in abilities from one major realm to another was far more profound than a simple additive progression.
Were it not for the system, Qin Chen would have been incapable of opening his divine sea, let alone possessing the Chaotic Holy Body.
Ling Ran, being of a similar age but already in the Sancai Realm, was undeniably outstanding among the myriad disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land. Having been pre-emptively accepted as the direct disciple of the Taiyi Holy Lord, her future prospects were boundless.
Before acquiring the system, he would have had no choice but to look up to her, as if she were a beloved daughter of heaven.
Ling Ran maintained a frosty expression. As she moved, other disciples respectfully made way. However, she did not linger. Soon after, she ascended upon a streak of rainbow light and departed into the sky, leaving behind her stunning silhouette.
“What a shame. I had hoped Senior Ling Ran would be cultivating here.”
“You were overly optimistic. Senior Ling Ran is a direct disciple of the Holy Lord and a contender for Holy Daughter. She receives a special monthly allocation of spirit stones for her cultivation and has her own private cultivation cave. She doesn’t need to toil in cultivation like us ordinary disciples.”
As a direct disciple of the Holy Lord and a candidate for Holy Daughter, her treatment was naturally distinct from that of others. She was provided with a personal cultivation cave and spirit stones to aid her cultivation.
Qin Chen briefly observed the retreating, beautiful figure of the Holy Daughter candidate Ling Ran before silently declaring, “System, I wish to check in here!”
[Congratulations, you have successfully checked in. You have been rewarded with 100 exotic spirit stones – Purple Crystals.]
Within the system space, one hundred distinct types of Purple Crystals materialized. As exotic spirit stones, each one was equivalent to 30 pounds of spirit stones, totaling a value of 3,000 pounds of spirit stones.
“Alas, such a meager amount of spirit stones,”
Qin Chen muttered with disappointment. In comparison to the Divine Spirit Source located at the Taiyi Main Hall, this reward was nearly a hundredfold less.
However, it was understandable. The Taiyi Main Hall was constructed upon the confluence of ancient dragon vessels and origin vessels, coupled with its extraordinary terrain. The location he occupied was merely a cultivation spot for ordinary disciples. Receiving 3,000 pounds worth of spirit stones in the form of exotic Purple Crystals was, in itself, quite generous.
If the other disciples were privy to this, they would undoubtedly be astonished.
Each month, they were only granted a spirit stone roughly the size of a baby’s fist – a meager amount, less than half a pound. Even prestigious figures like Ling Ran, a direct disciple of the Holy Lord, alongside numerous other elders, were limited to around 1,000 pounds of spirit stones monthly. He had previously scoffed at his own substantial collection of spirit stones, a thought that now filled him with shame.
Following this, Qin Chen retreated to his secluded cave. This time, he opted to cultivate using the exotic spirit stones. He initiated the Chaotic Imperial Sutra, drawing in the spiritual energy from these stones and channeling it into his own divine power. His cultivation progressed without pause.
Before he knew it, one full month had elapsed since Qin Chen first activated the check-in system. The area bearing the Chaotic Heavenly Emperor’s footprint was under intense surveillance by the Holy Land, and the Taiyi Main Hall itself was a location he could not freely access. Thus, during this period, Qin Chen’s check-ins were limited to various smaller, surrounding locations. Naturally, the spiritual essence of these places paled in comparison to the Taiyi Main Hall and the site of the emperor’s mark, and the rewards he received reflected this difference.
As for other locales that might harbor potent spiritual energy, they were either critical zones or forbidden areas within the Holy Land, inaccessible to ordinary disciples. Furthermore, these locations were situated at a considerable distance. Consequently, Qin Chen refrained from taking such risks until his cultivation level reached a significantly higher point.
Despite these limitations, through the act of checking in, Qin Chen had amassed a considerable fortune of spirit stones, profound knowledge, potent medicinal herbs, and exceptional materials suitable for weapon forging, among other valuable items. Were this trove of treasures to be revealed, it would undoubtedly incite the envy of the Taiyi Holy Land's elders, perhaps even its supreme elders.
After a month dedicated to cultivation, the entirety of the 100 Purple Crystals had been completely consumed.
