Just like there is a path beyond cultivators and the Longevity Realm, there should also be other realms above the Longevity Soldiers. However, there are no records of weapons of such realms in the Chen Family, and it seems that they have never appeared in the entire Celestial Profound Realm.

The Profound Celestial Immortal Realm is evolving towards that realm.

Moreover, the route it takes is exceedingly bizarre.

It doesn't require Golden Nature to drive its evolution; it needs the life of a Longevity Master!

By killing Longevity Masters and True Monarchs, it can continue to evolve. It seems as if it kills enough, it can truly touch that realm.

"An evil mirror."

After whispering this, the Profound Celestial Immortal Mirror transformed into a stream of light and directly merged into Chen Zhixing's left eye.

This mirror is the one among the three Longevity Soldiers that has the highest affinity with him.

The Ziwei Emperor Lamp is a Longevity Soldier passed down through the Chen Family, with its deity sleeping inside. It can only be fully awakened by pouring the blood essence of a Chen Family descendant, thereby unleashing its true power.

The Immortal Sword Cyan Pheasant doesn't need to be mentioned; its Sword Spirit deity has always been awake. Unfortunately, it suffered too much damage in the past, causing its level to fall. After extensive cultivation by Chen Zhixing, it barely returned to the threshold of the Longevity Realm, making further progress very difficult.

The Profound Celestial Mirror is quite mystical.

It contains no deity!

No, to be precise, its deity is still in gestation. Even though its inherent power and rank are much higher than the Cyan Pheasant Sword, the deity within has never fully developed.

But this doesn't hinder its inherent strength, and without the deity's will, it allows Chen Zhixing, an outsider, to wield its full divine might at any time and place.

The only pity is that it doesn't move in sync, and using it consumes a lot of energy. Even for Chen Zhixing now, using it once would harm his Primordial Energy, and using it twice in a battle would completely drain him.

Indeed, a reawakened Profound Celestial Divine Mirror can destroy a hundred-meter-high hill in a single strike.

But that's not its full power; it's merely that Chen Zhixing hasn't found a method to use it because he hasn't fully ritualized this mirror yet.

"It won't take long. In another ten years, I will fully ritualize the Profound Celestial Mirror. By then, could I reach the Peak Seventh Layer?"

Chen Zhixing is not very certain about this.

However, he is very certain about one thing.

When reaching the Peak Seventh Layer, he will definitely become a Longevity Master!

Then, becoming a Longevity Master of the Peak Realm would be smooth sailing, completing the path of the Peak Realm, becoming a true Longevity True Monarch with considerable power and extremely long life.

Regarding breaking through the peak realm into the Longevity Realm, Chen Zhixing never thought he would be stuck before the Longevity Realm!

...

As spring passes and autumn comes, time flies, and another year has passed in the blink of an eye.

This year, Qin Zhenzheng's master named Qin Yi was exceptionally active, using the title of descent, organizing many sects in the Southern Domain such as the 'Five Elements Sect', 'Luoyu Sect', 'Celestial Heart Sect', 'Divine Cat Sect', 'Iron Sword Sect', and so on. For this, they held a so-called 'Immortal Gathering', gathering various sects together for mutual exchange.

For this reason, Qin Zhenzheng specially traveled to Ziwei Mountain to request a 'Purifying and Warming Divine Pill' from her master's behalf, as one of the highlight items for the 'Immortal Gathering'.

The young girl used a piece of ten-thousand-year warm jade in exchange, which cultivators benefit from by carrying for its calming and purifying effects.

It also purifies mana and has certain effects on resolving pill toxins.

The warm jade was given to Chen Tianliang by Chen Zhixing.

It must be said, Chen Tianliang's talent in cultivation is not bad. After recovering from his injuries, with ample supply of pills over the years, he finally broke through to the Nirvana Realm three months ago, becoming the fourth Chen-named Nirvana Cultivator on Ziwei Mountain.

Chen Zhixing, Chen Zhaosheng, Chen Tianliang, and Chen Chou'er!

Yes, Chen Chou'er's cultivation broke through to Nirvana, and this news even made Chen Zhixing pause for a moment.

It's worth mentioning that Chen Chou'er cultivates demon skills!

It's the kind that fluctuates in realm and can unleash terrifying power well beyond its level during battles!

This kind of Cultivation Technique, with Nirvana Realm being just a threshold, usually reaches its limit at True Self Ninth Layer. Chen Zhixing expected he could be used as half a Nirvana Realm.

Yet who expected, Chen Chou'er actually broke through?

Regarding this, Chen Zhixing was extremely delighted and even took a batch of Fire Spirit Lotus Seeds to the Celestial Saint Palace to refine some Purifying and Warming Divine Pills for him.

Others at the early-stage Nirvana might find it difficult to digest, but it posed no worry for Chen Chou'er.

The more pain, the faster Chen Chou'er's cultivation progresses!

As for bursting his belly or having his meridians explode, for Chen Chou'er at Nirvana Realm, there's absolutely no threat.

At the beginning of Chen Chou'er's breakthrough to Nirvana, the interested Chen Zhixing guided him a bit, finally realizing that this guy is extremely hard to kill, even harder to kill than an average Nirvana Cultivator with blood rebirth!

The more pain, the stronger!

In Nirvana Realm, even one drop of blood left means rebirth!

This signifies that Chen Chou'er's pain ceiling has been raised again.

Even though he just broke through to Nirvana, Chen Zhixing feels that his strength is not inferior to Chen Zhaosheng.

Path of Suffering, truly a sinister thing!

The improvement seemingly has no limit!

According to Chen Zhixing's estimation, should Chen Chou'er cultivate to Nirvana Fourth or Fifth Layer, he could unleash Peak Power during battles.

As for whether Chen Chou'er will break through to Peak and prove the Longevity Tao with the Path of Suffering in the future....

"It seems that there is no Longevity Seeker proving the Tao with the Path of Suffering in the world today?"

Upon realizing this, Chen Zhixing began pouring increasingly mad resources into Chen Chou'er's cultivation. Not only did he give him a Purifying and Warming Divine Pill every month, but other pills suitable for Nirvana Realm were given freely, making even his father, Chen Tianliang, complain, saying Chen Zhixing mistook his parent.

To this, Chen Zhixing only smiled lightly.

The current Ziwei Chen Family desperately needs a second Peak Realm warrior to emerge!

Patriarch Chen Tianyuan's return time is uncertain, and the one sent to Suspended Mountain to find grandfather Chen Daoyan returned with no news. The most hopeful, Chen Zhaosheng, is now only at the Nirvana Third Layer, with no hope to break through to the Peak Realm for another thirty or forty years, not to mention the others.

In such circumstances, if Chen Zhixing doesn't focus his efforts on Chen Chou'er, then on whom?

On that dumb snake?

Third Peak, by the Lotus Pool.

While sipping tea, Chen Zhixing suddenly saw a white snake sticking its head out from underwater.

"Hiss, I'm about to break through to the Peak, can you share a pill with me?"

Chen Zhixing: "???"

Quite miraculous!

Why do such breakthroughs to the Peak always happen to those he least expects?

Those on whom he placed hopes, Lii Shuang and Snow Soul, both say they need four or five more years of grinding to challenge the Peak, yet this dumb snake claims it's about to break through?

No! On what grounds!

As if sensing Chen Zhixing's unfavorable gaze, the Snake Spirit thought for a while, then tried to retreat into the depths of the Lotus Pool.

"Don't run."

Snake Princess: "ヾ(•ω•`)o"

"Did you just say you're about to break through to the Peak?"

The white snake's head nodded quickly, with its tail wagging underwater, seemingly saying to Chen Zhixing, "Praise me, praise me!"

Chen Zhixing: "..."

Misfortune!

With a flick of his hand, he tossed a porcelain bottle to her, watching the Snake Princess swallow it whole, and sighed:

"Then what do you plan to do?"

Snake Princess: "....."

She began retreating into the Lotus Pool again, clearly indicating that if possible, she didn't even want to stay in Ziwei Mountain.

"I won't dive into your bed; please don't lock me up!"

Chen Zhixing: "???"

Glaring at her with annoyance, Chen Zhixing said with a fake smile, "Why would I lock you up out of nowhere? I'm asking what are your plans after breaking through to the Peak. Are you planning to find a place to cultivate after descending the mountain, or continue to stay in the Northern Domain as a mountain ruler?"

"Are you sure you won't lock me up?"

"....."

"Then I can stay on this mountain."

"Huh?" Chen Zhixing was rather surprised.

Then.

"It's quite comfortable staying here, and when your family gets invaded by enemies, I'll run away then."

Chen Zhixing: "!!!"
