"???

"Get lost."

As the words of True Monarch Yimiao fell, Chen Zhixing felt a strong wind on his face, and then his whole person was 'blown' out of that dilapidated temple.

By the time he had steadied himself, he found he had already returned to Ziwei Mountain.

"I....."

Surrounded by green tiles and bricks, and in front of him a ginkgo tree with a full canopy, Chen Zhixing was stunned for a few seconds before he came to realize that he was not blown away by an air current but was teleported to Ziwei Mountain by the opponent using the Space Tao.

This technique was almost like a Divine Technique, yet True Monarch Yimiao did it effortlessly.

Lingering in the courtyard for a moment, Chen Zhixing wanted to check if there were any traces left by the opponent, but in the end, he could only reach one conclusion.

"Such power, it's a bit excessive..."

...

Better a chicken head than a phoenix tail.

This principle was a code of conduct engraved into Chen Zhixing's bones in his past life.

In fact, even if his elders at home had told him the cause and effect of all this in advance, his choice would not have been any different from now.

Yes, he is a Chaos Body, able to traverse all Heavens and Myriad Tao. As long as he's willing to bow his head, some powerful Taoist Lords will take notice of him, and in the future, obtaining a Golden Nature, reaching a status comparable to True Monarch Yimiao wouldn't be difficult.

But why should he lower his head to others for no good reason?

If it weren't for the precedent of an Immortal Emperor Venerable, Chen Zhixing might not even be willing to give up the idea of embodying all Tao with the Chaos Tao!

To drop from the Master of Ten Thousand Tao to the Master of One Tao, with the potential to harness Myriad Tao in the future, was already the limit of his tolerance, yet they still wanted Chen Zhixing to become a subordinate?

That's really underestimating him!

"Emperor Ziwei of the North Dipper, Master of Star Palace, brings great benefits too."

Walking along the mountain path of Ziwei Mountain, feeling the breeze touch his body, Chen Zhixing was in a pleasant mood.

"These big figures began to focus on the Spirit Realm because their path has reached its end. Take True Monarch Yimiao as an example; even if some permissions are granted to her by the Space Taoist Master, she would reach the Eighth Order at most before dying of exhaustion, barely reaching the Ninth Order at most, unable to touch the realms beyond Longevity.

Their limits have been determined, and there's nothing left to seek in the Mortal World, so they place their hopes in the Spirit Realm.

But as for me?"

In the plot, Shi Hao could return cross-realm, sweeping through the Celestial Profound Realm alone, which indicates that there is a path beyond Longevity!

"How could it be that the disciple could do it, but the master couldn't?"

Having gone through so much and finally put everything in order, not only is there no longer any threat from Daluo Taoist Lands, but he also genuinely gained autonomy from the Celestial Saint Palace. At this moment, Chen Zhixing just wanted to laugh out loud.

He held back.

"Doesn't look good."

With a slight curl at the corner of his mouth, walking on the path where there's no one, Chen Zhixing softly whispered: "Star Palace, every ten years there are 1,200 quotas, Star Palace only occupies three hundred, the remaining nine hundred quotas are all mine.

Nine hundred is like marking the position of Longevity, and once I release the word, how many will come find me? The benefits brought by this, along with the chain reactions these benefits can cause.....

You Holy Lands, do you truly know how terrifyingly colossal such benefits can create?

In ancient times, an emperor died and used a mountain as his tomb, driving the populace to build it. The people who built the tomb gathered to establish a city, and when the emperor finally passed and was entombed, dragon stones sealed the tomb, seemingly ending things; only the people who built it remained, unchanged for millions of years but became ancient cities passed down to this day!

A single emperor recorded in history, building a tomb for himself which persisted for thousands of years, forming vast city clusters, and now I'm building the Star Palace with the mission to teach 'Longevity True Monarch', turning it into a Sky City capable of moving into Star Realm—is not too much, right?"

More thoughts bring more excitement!

What's all this about Spirit Realm, Gold Nature?

That's all about things after death, I'm not even thirty yet this year and could live thousands or tens of thousands more years, and you old folks are talking to me about what happens when I die thousands or tens of thousands of years later?

And say I'll suffer after death?

So what?

And then what?

Were you kicked in the head by a donkey?!

What Space Taoist Lord, what Gold Spirit Realm, you old folks wait and let me first finish building the Star Palace, level up out there, break through the constraints of the Longevity Realm, and then we'll revisit this 'suffering' issue.

The more he thought, the more excited he got, the happier he was.

Chen Zhixing had already planned to have a good fight with Chen Zhaosheng today, letting his cousin experience the harsh reality, giving him some motivation for his cultivation!

It's fair to say that Chen Zhixing, who was in a good mood, walked as if floating.

This made Chen Chou'er, who was following the back of the mountain road, ready to go to the main peak, couldn't help but rub his eyes.

"Is that the master? Am I seeing things?"

...

Chen Zhixing's usual steady demeanor made it difficult to view him as a young man.

Especially during those days, he became the Patriarch of Chen Family, and later decided to step down, added to the frequent strange events within Ziwei Star, and previously Emperor Ziwei of the North Dipper Dharma Image defeated Daluo Saint Master, this made the outside world no longer view him as a young man but as a calculating and cunning monster.

As a result, even True Monarch Yimiao, an old monster in her own right, subconsciously categorized Chen Zhixing as being several hundred years old, in spite of the disparity in age perception being ingrained and completely irreversible.

It's like seeing a neighbor's one-year-old daughter at eight; to you, she will always remain a little sister.

But if you meet her at twenty when you're twenty-eight.... isn't it reasonable to ask for a contact number?

The age difference is the same!

But the psychological difference it brings is worlds apart!

No one treats Chen Zhixing as a 'kid' who's been cultivating for only twenty-something years anymore; everyone assumes that having served as the Master of a Noble Family, retired, and even after retirement, resisting Daluo Taoist Lands for the family, Chen Zhixing was already a 'mature' existence.

But who would have thought, this mature Chen Zhixing in their hearts, still harbors the 'delusion' of breaking through to realms beyond Longevity!

This kind of thinking is not mature at all, not fitting of Chen Zhixing's identity!

But Chen Zhixing is not even thirty yet!

Even Chen Chou'er, who was following behind further up the mountain and planning to head to the main peak, couldn't help but rub his eyes when he saw Chen Zhixing 'hopping' on the mountain path.

"Such an old man", he just couldn't get a word out when he saw Chen Zhaosheng being hung in front of the Longevity Hall by Chen Zhixing as he bounced up the path.

"How old are you already?"

"Even this brooding youth who bears a blood-stained grudge has grown up, understanding that I'm now a mature middle-aged person!!!"

Nobody treats Chen Zhixing like a kid anymore, considering all his prior days of serving as the patriarch of the Chen Family, choosing to step down, and having secured autonomy from the Celestial Saint Palace. As a result, the outside world already sees him not as a youth, but as a monster with deep thoughts.

But Chen Zhixing, who they think of as mature, deep down is still cheerful and lively. Chen Chou'er wondered if he had seen a ghost when he saw Chen Zhixing bouncing along the path on the mountainside

Reaching the main peak, he couldn't help his eyelids from twitching as he saw Chen Zhaosheng hung before the Longevity Hall, without a word to speak.

Isn't he an adult already?

And I've already matured now despite being a brooding young man with a deep-seated grudge, knowing I'm a stable, mature man!!!

"Master, Crown Prince, the first batch of candidates for the Star Palace from within the family has been summarized."

"Zhixing, let me down, I will take a look at the list first." Chen Zhaosheng looks up at the sky with twitching eyes.

"Dream on."

"Well, did you know I went to see someone last night? You're talking to me about boundaries?"

"Who? You didn't go to meet grandpa? Who did you see?"

"Taoist Monarch Yimiao."

Chen Zhaosheng: "??? "

"Haha! Chen Zhixing, you...."

"If she doesn't consider me, why should I consider you?"
