Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family

Chapter 723: Chapter 524: The 1st Sovereign of Star Tao

Star Venerable or Demon Venerable, that is the question.

Although the people of the Star Island Chen Family verbally called Chen Zhixing Star Venerable, in reality, like most people in the Celestial Profound Realm, they considered Chen Zhixing to be a demon.

After all, in front of the Three Great Sacred Lands, breaking into the Central Domain Blessed Lands, and causing such chaos to the Daluo Taoist Lands that the population reduced by forty percent—such a feat is unprecedented and likely will never happen again.

Unless the Celestial Profound Realm and other worlds engage in full-scale war someday!

"Look quickly, the celestial tribulation has disappeared! Second Uncle succeeded!"

"Today, our clan gains another longevity!"

"Congratulations to Second Uncle on attaining the Tao!"

"Congratulations...."

Accompanied by a strange starlight shooting up to the sky, for a moment, the entire Northeast Sea lost its sound; it was a blessing from the stars, a celebration worthy for the descent of another Longevity Great True Monarch in the Celestial Profound Realm.

The Star Island Chen Family adds another longevity today!

And he walks the Star Monarch Tao!

...

In the endless Arctic Ocean, the Dragon Turtle with starlight shining on its head emerged, its sharp jaw trembling continuously, and its eyes, though large yet still like mung beans, moved side to side, finally swearing angrily.

"What kind of luck did this Chen get, that the Star Monarch Tao can truly be traversed?"

It wasn’t unreasonable for it to be so exasperated. Many years ago, that old man named Chen Tianyuan was the first to find it, hoping it would protect a junior from its clan during their Taoist journey, offering as compensation the first Golden Nature Fruit Position under the starlight.

At the time, without a second thought, the Dragon Turtle refused.

Protect a Taoist journey?

Let it protect someone?

To guard for that little killer star named Chen Zhixing?

Was he even worthy?

Not to mention Chen Zhixing hadn’t yet attained longevity at that time. Even if he had, he was taking the Star Monarch Tao prearranged by the Three Great Sacred Lands, with no freedom of placement they assigned.

Aware of this, the Dragon Turtle naturally refused this absurd proposition without hesitation.

Afterward, came the event of Chen Tianyuan, disappointed, traveling across the Star Island.

Generally speaking, that would have been the end of it. The usual follow-up would be Chen Zhixing integrating into one of the Three Great Sacred Lands, the Sacred Land accepting him, the Ziwei Chen Family suffering a calamity weakening their core, only to be revived with Chen Zhixing’s successful attainment of the Tao.

A slap followed by sugarcoating, as most noble families go through.

But the Dragon Turtle never expected the situation to develop contrary to its expectations; that junior named Chen Zhixing truly was rebellious, crucially not only did he not bow down but indeed defied the will of the Three Great Sacred Lands, successfully escaping!

Central State suffered, gaining the name of Demon Venerable.

Attaining the Star Monarch, the world later hailed him as Star Venerable!

Then traveling overseas, as the Huayu Immortal Venerable prepared to leave the Celestial Profound, the Immortal Ascension Sect announced that after Chen Zhixing’s farewell in the Cosmic Realm, he might well replace Huayu’s position, becoming another esteemed of the Immortal Ascension Sect upon return!

In truth, by then, the Dragon Turtle had started to regret.

Currently, even overseas loose cultivators setting foot on the Star Monarch Tao completely broke the Dragon Turtle’s defense.

A Taoist Lord controlled by the Three Great Sacred Lands and something like the open-to-all Star Monarch Tao are entirely different things!

If the Star Monarch Tao was controlled by the Three Great Sacred Lands, then Chen Zhixing as a Star Monarch Taoist Lord would be merely a figurehead, nothing more to say.

However, now this path seems truly open!

This is terrifying.

In conclusion, as long as Chen Zhixing can endure the early stages without being swayed by the Three Great Sacred Lands, the Star Monarch Tao in the coming millennia might truly give birth to over a thousand longevity beings, all owing three points of respect to Chen Zhixing whether in life or death.

Calling them his subordinates might be exaggerated.

But if these Star Monarchs call Chen Zhixing Alliance Leader and, without crossing any lines, follow his orders for mutual benefit, they have no reason to refuse.

Not to mention when they descend into the Spirit Realm afterward, these Star Monarchs’ Golden Nature indeed will need to warm themselves by Chen Zhixing, the Star Venerable!

Such being the first Exotic Beast of the Star Monarch Tao holds lethal attraction to the Dragon Turtle.

Unfortunately, it refused.

"At that time, truly a misstep, but it’s alright, this seat’s life span is long, missing Li Er or missing Chen Zhixing makes no difference, eventually, I’ll still wait for the next or the one after that to help me cross the endless Sea of Suffering."

Thinking thus, the Dragon Turtle glanced a few more times, its massive body began to slowly sink until it vanished without a trace.

Few knew, this Dragon Turtle had been acquainted with both Chen Tianyuan and Li Er, considered half friends.

And back then when some junior named Chen Zhixing clamored to lead his ancestors to raid that Dragon Palace, in reality, the two had been guests there several times over the millennium.

Even three monsters from that large clam shell carried back to Ziwei Mountain by Chen Zhixing had, with this old turtle’s consent, voluntarily entered Ziwei Mountain.

As for the chaos in the Northern Domain back then, where the old turtle trapped two Celestial Saints from the Holy Palace with its shell.

Old friends reuniting, hosting a banquet, eating and drinking, finding them tipsy, tricking them for some stuff... not too excessive, is it?
