Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family

Chapter 674: Chapter 499: Opportunity_2

Just like he said.

An Ancient God Kingdom that has already been partially explored; if interested and willing to spend some time, Chen Zhixing could even dismantle this Divine Kingdom.

...

Facts have proven.

Bai Yu’s refusal was not firm.

When she found out that Chen Zhixing seriously intended to leave her behind and go solo, she couldn’t help but come back to pester him.

Outside the Celestial Vault Divine Kingdom.

Watching someone tinkering with a pile of Array Plates at the barrier of the Divine Kingdom, Bai Yu bashfully approached to inquire.

"What are you doing?"

"Calculating the direction."

"Calculating the direction for what?"

"To calculate where the Ancient God Puppet is. I have to change direction to enter; otherwise, if I run into it immediately, wouldn’t I be asking for trouble?"

Saying this, Chen Zhixing also felt a bit headache.

It’s not that he can’t defeat that puppet, but there’s truly no need to go all-out against this thing.

The other party has mastered the method of wielding World Thunder, which is a significantly harmful technique for Chen Zhixing. If he were to be struck directly by World Thunder, it’s not impossible that his Chaos Body would be shattered, potentially costing him his life.

Therefore, if he can avoid confronting this guy, Chen Zhixing would prefer not to.

This is the attitude of most Longevity Realm Cultivators when facing opponents of the same realm.

"Ah, how long will you take?"

"I don’t know, probably two days, or maybe three days."

"Are you planning to wait for that puppet to go dormant again?"

"It’d be best if possible, but according to my estimates, once awakened, the Ancient God Puppet would take at least one to three months before it goes dormant again."

"Ah? How did you calculate that?"

"By counting how many birdmen you’ve killed."

Bai Yu: "???"

Chen Zhixing glared at her: "That puppet was created by the ancient Sky God using its own body as material. For rulers of that level, as long as they exist in the Cosmic Realm, energy is hardly a restriction. What truly restricts the puppet from dormancy is the rule set by the Sky God itself, which awakens the puppet by burning the bloodline of dead descendants. Once the bloodline is completely exhausted, only then does the puppet go dormant again."

"Okay, my fault, I shouldn’t have acted impulsively earlier...."

"This has nothing to do with you."

"Ah?"

"Even if you hadn’t acted, I would still try to awaken it after realizing this."

When he said this, Chen Zhixing stopped talking to Bai Yu. No matter how much Bai Yu asked, he kept silent.

He’s afraid of scaring Bai Yu.

As he said, upon discovering the puppet of the Sky God, Chen Zhixing knew his character would definitely covet the puppet.

More accurately, it’s the treasure left behind by the Sky God that he’s interested in.

After all, according to Luling’s account, aside from the Subordinate God who held dominion over stars, there’s also the King of the Sky with dominion over the ’Starry Sky’.

Compared to the dominion over stars, which is easily associated with stellar phenomena, ’Starry Sky’ is something Chen Zhixing, possessing the Chaos Body and the Star Monarch Taoist Lord, should pursue.

But... if Chen Zhixing truly has ideas about the King of the Sky, he doesn’t need to think to know that Bai Yu, with her cautious nature, would surely hesitate.

Not only hesitate, but she would use various means to persuade Chen Zhixing to abandon his thoughts.

So it’s better not to tell her directly.

...

Just as Chen Zhixing was contemplating the Celestial Vault Divine Kingdom.

On the other side.

Shi Hao, who was dragging Zhang Wen across the world, also encountered his opportunity.

Truly deserving the title of Celestial Chosen; the Cosmic Realm is his place of origin. Shi Hao surprisingly encountered an example of a Divine Kingdom while on the Endless Sea—something Chen Zhixing must painstakingly plot to achieve!

And it was perfectly suited for him, a very compatible Ancient God Realm.

"Divine Kingdom of Longevity and Wood?"

Approaching a shallow beach by the Endless Sea, Shi Hao, having walked here with Zhang Wen, instinctively read the ’words’ on a stele by the sea.

Don’t ask why these tadpole-like things get called words. Zhang Wen stared at the stele for half a day without recognizing any meaning represented by those tadpoles!

"You can read these words?"

"I recognize some, these words... bear some similarity to the script of my Stone Race. I learned some as a child."

"Stone Race? Northern Domain Stone Race? I’ve never heard of any connection between your race and the Cosmic Realm."

"I don’t know either, maybe some of our ancestors wandered to the Cosmic Realm before?"

While speaking, Shi Hao was not very certain.

But the next scene was downright speechless for Zhang Wen.

Shi Hao walked up, touched the stele, and suddenly, in their astonished gaze, a verdant light beamed from the stele, forming a door of light on both of them.

What is an encounter? This is undoubtedly it.

Moreover, it’s akin to having ancestors feed the meal directly to your mouth; you only need to open your mouth to eat it!

"This... is..."

"Why are you still in a daze, let’s go. Since it’s specifically left by your Stone Race ancestors for the descendents, it couldn’t possibly harm you, a Stone Race prodigy?"

Seeing Shi Hao hesitated, Zhang Wen spoke directly to urge him.

What a joke.

Since they’ve used words that only Stone Race descendants can understand as a marker, whatever lies behind this door is certainly meant for Stone Race descendants, so why hesitate?

Not to mention, behind this door there’s a high probability it’s a Divine Kingdom left by a Wood Ancient God in the Cosmic Realm, containing countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures!

Facts were exactly as Zhang Wen imagined.

As soon as they stepped into the door of light, they were bombarded by the rich Wood Attribute Spiritual Qi from the other side.

In this land, the Spiritual Qi is so dense it’s almost liquefied. Looking around, everything in sight is various Spirit Plants with ages not less than a thousand years. Zhang Wen even saw, further out, a clearly human-built straw hut surrounded with fencing to form a medicine garden!

"Ahem... Cough cough... Shi Hao, I truly envy you. Your talent for choosing your path, I can’t catch up even if I chase on horseback!"

"Brother Zhang, don’t joke. It’s just a chance encounter, besides, didn’t you also come in together?"

While speaking, Shi Hao had already begun examining the area.

No, perhaps this is not a complete realm, but a Grotto Heaven Blessed Lands enclosed by arrays from the Divine Kingdom of Longevity and Wood, specifically reserved for Stone Race descendents to inherit!

Though not extensive, it truly is a land of rare treasures.

A small medicine yard, its foundation surprisingly equal to the diverse Spirit Medicines stored in the great warehouse of the Ziwei Chen Family.

"Look over there, that’s Exquisite Grass, a Spirit Medicine to enhance Peak Realm cultivation. Remarkably, judging by this one’s color, it must have over ten thousand years of medicinal age!"

"Brother Zhang..."

"Look over there, it’s the Longevity Ginseng King! Look at its roots, it’s about to undergo Transformation... It has transformed! Don’t let it escape!"

Saying this, Zhang Wen had already dashed forward.

But he was still a step too slow; the Longevity Ginseng King, initially resembling a ginseng, suddenly flashed with spiritual light all around, then transformed into a plump little baby, diving into the ground!

Witnessing this, Zhang Wen was heartbroken, pounding his feet and chest, coupled with his continuous coughing making it seem like he might drop dead any moment.

"Ah!!! That’s the Longevity Ginseng King! A Longevity Ginseng King that can extend life for a thousand years after Transformation! And I let it escape right under my eyes! Ah!"

"Brother Zhang...."

"My Longevity Ginseng King!!!"

"Brother Zhang, it can’t escape; this small Grotto Heaven is isolated by arrays from the external world, that ginseng can’t get past this hundred-mile radius...."

Saying this, even Shi Hao was somewhat absent-minded.

No other reason.

He too was astonished by this small Grotto Heaven left by some unknown Stone Race ancestor.

Because as Zhang Wen spoke, Shi Hao had already seen over ten Spirit Medicines undergoing Transformation, scampering away from them....
