Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family

Chapter 729: Chapter 527: Chen Shanchen

Half dead might not be entirely accurate, but two-fifths dead is certainly an apt description.

The Longevity Realm cultivator of the Daluo Taoist Lands, after receiving a slap from Chen Zhixing, lost four or five-tenths of his cultivation. By this logic, two more slaps of the same kind would basically mean the end for a person.

Three slaps for one Longevity Realm! Just ask, isn’t that terrifying!

Of course, that’s a joke. Few Longevity practitioners would go head-to-head with the Dharma Image of the Emperor Ziwei Venerable. Even Yimiao would suffer from such an encounter, let alone others.

It’s like a martial arts tournament where everyone is fighting barehanded, but you step on stage wearing half-skeletal armor. Who would dare to stand against you!

What Chen Shanchen meant was merely to put some pressure on this younger generation of his family, to prevent him from being blinded by his own cultivation level reaching the Longevity Realm. Otherwise, he might cause irreparable disasters.

Chen Tianheng clearly didn’t think so.

Even after hearing his words, he remained unconvinced, although he didn’t express it in front of Chen Shanchen. Yet, a root of trouble was already planted in his heart.

"Tianheng understands, ancestor. If there are no other instructions, Tianheng is ready to go to the Sword Casting Manor in West Profound State to compete for that divine sword," Chen Tianheng bent over to bow to Chen Shanchen and said formally.

Chen Shanchen, seeing this, could only sigh. He coughed twice and waved his hand, indicating he could leave.

After Chen Tianheng left.

A gleam appeared in Chen Shanchen’s tiger eyes, but it gradually dimmed again, leaving only a weak, lingering lament.

"Wanhong, Tianheng, Zhixing, Zhaosheng... If these four could truly unite, how could our Chen Family not have a prosperous day? Not to mention claiming supremacy in the Spirit Realm, even in the Celestial Profound Realm, the Three Great Sacred Lands should become four, shouldn’t they?"

Recalling the words left by Ancestor Tianyuan when he delivered the Ziwei Emperor Lamp, Chen Shanchen was momentarily at a loss about how to express himself.

He was old, just like Ancestor Tianyuan, and had reached a time when he should make way for the younger generation.

But the formation of four Longevity practitioners in the Chen Family had not changed.

Before he died, Chen Zhaosheng, who Ancestor Tianyuan had high hopes for, was certain to achieve the Longevity Tao. By then, with Chen Tianheng outside, Chen Zhaosheng inside, along with Ninth Uncle wandering around the Celestial Profound Realm, and Zhixing, who though in the outer realm, was already considered a top-tier expert... With such a Chen Family, why couldn’t they vie for the position of the Fourth Sacred Lands?

If they could unite with some Independent Practitioner Longevity cultivators and bring in some external assistance for alliances, then, in Chen Shanchen’s view, the position of the Fourth Sacred Lands for the Chen Family was already a predetermined fact.

If in his lifetime, he could witness this, then when he entered the Spirit Realm, he could boast to the ancestors above.

But why is it so hard to harmonize people’s hearts?

The Wanhong Ancestor being trapped for a millennium need not be mentioned, but even Tianheng, who grew up under his watch, didn’t listen.

As for the other two youths from Ziwei Mountain, they have never come to visit Circulation Island all these years, nor have they ever thought of seeking help from Circulation Island, as if they had completely severed ties with the Star Island Lineage.

Chen Shanchen could guarantee that if Chen Zhixing had come to Star Island to relay a message when that Daluo Saint Master first arrived in Jiangzhou, he would have defended Ziwei Mountain with his life, preventing the situation from deteriorating as it did.

Since the Three Great Sacred Lands were wary of the Chen Family and wanted to act, then killing him, the only apparent Longevity True Monarch of the Chen Family at the time, would have sufficed to quell them.

As long as they lasted until Chen Zhixing cultivated into the Longevity Tao Fruit, it would take less than twenty years for Tianheng to follow closely, and in the subsequent decades, the child named Zhaosheng would catch up. Along with the support of the Wanhong Ancestor, although they would have one less Longevity practitioner than now, the situation would undoubtedly be much better than at present.

That Star Palace could have been established!

Every time he thought of the ’Star Palace’ matter, Chen Shanchen would stomp his feet and pound his chest, a rush of resentment reaching his chest that could not be calmed.

If the Chen Family, under the support of the Three Great Sacred Lands, obtained the title of Star Palace, it would not take a thousand years for the foundation of the Chen Family to make it an undisputed Fourth Sacred Land! And it would have smoothly transitioned as a new Sacred Land recognized by the Three Great Sacred Lands!

Yes, the title given by the Three Great Sacred Lands had sinister intentions, but as long as their own foundation didn’t waver, bad things could always turn into good things.

If in the future, the starry sky could indeed become a magnificent scene like that of a ’Hundred Veins Cultivator,’ then Chen Zhixing, who had both the name and actual power to control the Star Palace, would undoubtedly become a leader of a lineage. Once he fell into the Spirit Realm in the future, he would by no means be inferior to the Five Elements Five Veins Taoist Lord, who is now in the prime of life!

What a pity, such a good opportunity was wasted by that child over some trivial matters.

What’s the death of some clan members?

If one Chen Daoyan wasn’t enough, add a Chen Tianyuan, and if still not enough, add him, Chen Shanchen. If the Three Great Sacred Lands pressed too hard, then any of the clan’s less talented members could be blindly sacrificed!

If Chen Zhixing found it hard to act, Chen Shanchen thought he could take matters into his own hands and toss ninety-nine percent of the Chen Family, including his direct bloodline, into this endless pit.
