1052 Getting Rich Overnight, the Wealth of a Country

In the past month or so, Chu Yunfan occasionally guided Lin Chenxi in her training while constantly looking through the historical books the major forces had sent.

Chu Yunfan was able to read almost all the sects' historical records with the major forces' cooperation.

The historical books were piled into almost the size of a mountain. It would take decades for an ordinary person to finish reading them, but Chu Yunfan was different. He had a photographic memory and could read ten lines at a glance.

Furthermore, his improved cultivation level further improved his reading ability. With just a glance, he could memorize an entire page. He was even faster than a computer scanning and recording history books.

Still, he had to read through every book and record day and night to finish them. However, after reading the many ancient history books he had received over the past month, they still did not quell his doubts. Instead, his doubts became more profound.

He felt a little depressed after reading these texts. Unlike the Federation's way of recording history, each sect and force had almost no complete historical records. Most were secrets or records of historical events after they had happened. Moreover, most of these records were from each respective sect and force.

Through these books, he discovered that the sects and forces that had initially entered the Holy Land were wiped out long ago. The current six superpowers only rose to power later.

Although Divines were around, and the chances of a change in power were minuscule, the Holy Land, which had survived since the Ancient Zenith Civilization's destruction, had been around for too long.

There was no such thing as an eternal foundation in the world. The forces that had dominated the Holy Land in the early years had been destroyed. The ancient books and records they left behind had slowly disappeared in the long river of history, leaving only a few scattered records.

Chu Yunfan learned much about the Holy Land's secrets through these books but did not find out much about the Ancient Zenith Civilization as he had wanted. Although the Holy Land's historical heritage was much more extensive than the Federation's, the matter concerning the Ancient Zenith Civilization had become a legend.

According to the records, the experts of ancient surpassed the Divine Abilities stage. The existence of these experts stabilized the Holy Land, allowing them to obtain a place to rebuild.

However, those experts and the sects they had founded had long disappeared through time.

Even so, Chu Yunfan did not come up empty-handed after constantly looking through these historical records. He discovered that all the records left behind about the Ancient Zenith Civilization seemed to record the words "ascend to the world."

Those words puzzled him. The strength of the Ancient Zenith Civilization had made it the base camp of all the worlds. With the Kunlun Realm as the core, the Ancient Zenith Civilization conquered the world.

Still, many ancient historical books he had just read mentioned ascension. He wondered if the entire Ancient Zenith Civilization had ascended together, but after some thought, he felt it was impossible.

The Ancient Zenith Civilization was mighty back then, and the number of living beings was in the trillions. The Federation and the Holy land were far inferior to the Ancient Zenith Civilization.

But it was almost impossible to achieve the ascension of an entire civilization. One could also discover this from the memories of the Alchemy Emperor.

Furthermore, ascension was a civilization undergoing a dimensional ascension and entering a higher dimension according to the current scientific point of view. However, civilization would benefit if the entire world were to ascend.

Why did the founders of the Holy Land escape into the Holy Land? Not to mention, the entire world had ascended, and the Ancient Zenith Civilization had disappeared completely. It was as if it had never existed.

Therefore, Chu Yunfan did not understand what had happened back then, even after reading these books. Instead, he became even more confused. Still, he was sure the Ancient Zenith Civilization's decline was unnatural.

'Something must've caused the entire civilization to suddenly disappear.'

Even the Holy Land's higher-ups did not know what had happened. However, without a more reasonable explanation, Chu Yunfan could only temporarily assume that the Ancient Zenith Civilization had ascended.

According to the Alchemy Emperor's memories Chu Yunfan had obtained, even though the Ancient Zenith Civilization was strong then, they likely did not have the proper conditions to ascend.

The emperors resembled countless blazing suns in the sky. but simultaneously almost dispersed the Ancient Zenith Civilization's power. Each family had a different development direction, and each emperor was mighty, so there was no possibility of anyone being able to unify the world.

It was only possible that it had happened at the end of the Alchemy Emperor's memory or after the godhead fell from the sky.

According to the Alchemy Emperor's last memory, that battle had been tragic. The various emperors fought until the sky collapsed and the earth cracked. It was a pity that the Alchemy Emperor died early, and there was not much in his memory that referred to this event.

Since Chu Yunfan could not discover the reason for the Ancient Zenith Civilization's disappearance, he could only give up and start to take stock of his gains from this trip to the Holy Land.

He took half the treasures and gave the other half to the Holy Land's various forces. The wealth inside was so much that one could imagine how amazing it was.

In the beginning, Lin Hongfeng was worried that the treasury of his mansion would be unable to contain so much wealth. After all, Tianhe had never received so many treasures before.

No one expected Chu Yunfan to accept everything. After all, he had developed his Mountain River Diagram several times, so its space grew exponentially. He even sorted all the treasures he had sent there.

Among these treasures were more than twenty million low-grade spirit stones. Their value was immeasurable, and Chu Yunfan's wealth alone could rival a country's. Indeed, he was now super rich and undoubtedly the wealthiest person in the Federation.

In addition, there were also countless natural treasures, rare precious medicine, and magical weapons, all of which filled Chu Yunfan's Mountain River Diagram. He estimated there to be more than ten million low-grade spiritual stones.

There were also cultivation manuals from various sects. Although Chu Yunfan did not care much for them, they were still invaluable to the Federation. After all, they contained numerous cultivation methods, from breaking through to the Divine Abilities Stage to cultivating to the peak of the Divine Abilities Stage.

The Federation could produce many Divines over the next few decades with these ancient records. According to the current number of experts, it was only a matter of time before thousands of Divines emerged.

Chu Yunfan could use this wealth to build a considerable force.
