Chapter 815 - 570: Entrustment
Chapter 815: Chapter 570: Entrustment
"Never, there was no immortal inheritance beyond that void!"
After resting for a long time, Chen Wanhong whispered in a hoarse voice tinged with a hint of hidden madness: "Perhaps it’s my lack of talent that failed to attract the attention of the Great Dream Inheritance, or perhaps something went wrong during this inheritance, preventing me from obtaining it, or maybe the inheritance itself is a scam!"
"The inheritance exists." Wang Chuan suddenly interjected, looking at Chen Wanhong with a mocking gaze: "It exists, but why would you think an immortal would entrust such an inheritance to an outsider with no ties?"
"I am the inheritor, I possess the Great Dream Immortal Body, and it was Immortal Wuyou who entrusted the inheritance to me first in a dream!"
"And then? Did you succeed in cultivating this technique?" Wang Chuan’s words were still dripping with sarcasm.
"Of course I succeeded! Whether it’s entering dreams or awakening, my Great Dream of Three Thousand Spells..."
"Then why haven’t you achieved longevity if you have cultivated such a technique? Don’t say it’s because your talent is inadequate. According to the Inch Light Truth Testing Method defined by the Celestial Saint Palace back then, your talent, Chen Wanhong, measures up to nine inches and three points. If you practiced a normal cultivation technique, it would be enough to support you to reach the Fifth Order of Longevity stage. With such talent, you would be called a prodigy even in the Three Great Sacred Lands, with hope for longevity!"
"I..." Hearing this, a hint of confusion flashed in Chen Wanhong’s eyes, and then he started to mutter to himself: "Did I really succeed in cultivating it?"
He began to lose confidence.
Indeed, according to the ’Inch Light Truth Testing Method’ propagated by the Celestial Saint Palace, his talent was as much as nine inches and three points. This kind of talent was not a bit inferior to another prodigy of the same generation, Chen Zhaosheng, from the Chen Family. In theory, certifying his path to longevity should have been taken for granted, not delayed for such a lengthy time of two thousand years.
Chen Wanhong himself was aware of his own talent. When he was initially stuck before the Longevity Sect, he had doubts, questioning whether the Great Dream Spell demanded too high a level of talent or if there were some other reasons. He even suspected that when he was brought into the Celestial Saint Palace by someone, those who checked him from the Three Great Sacred Lands had meddled with something on him.
It can be said that this suspicion has persisted until now.
Then, today, is the answer to this riddle finally about to be revealed?
Chen Wanhong silently awaited the final verdict.
Wang Chuan didn’t keep Chen Wanhong waiting long, just gave him a glance with mild indifference, then in a low and mocking tone said: "Have you ever thought, where in the world could there be such a heaven-defying cultivation technique that could allow someone under twenty to directly cultivate to the Peak Realm? Looking back over the past fifty thousand years of the Celestial Profound, aside from you, is there anyone else?"
Hearing this, Chen Wanhong instinctively glanced at Chen Zhixing beside him.
Chen Zhixing shrugged: "I reached the Peak Realm at eighteen; well, back then it was because I was afraid of cultivating too fast and Nirvana was incomplete, otherwise, I could have probably broken through at sixteen."
Upon hearing this, Chen Wanhong again looked towards Wang Chuan.
Wang Chuan: "..."
"He doesn’t count! Don’t look at me! Over fifty thousand years of the Celestial Profound, there has only been one such heaven-defying individual, so do you think you, Chen Wanhong, compare to him?"
Speaking to this point, Wang Chuan was also quite helpless.
In fact, before Chen Zhixing broke through to the Longevity Realm, the attitude of the Three Great Sacred Lands towards him was to treat him as the second Chen Wanhong. Were it not for this, back when Tihu came to the Ziwei Chen Family, they would not have easily given up on taking him as an apprentice merely because Chen Zhixing refused.
Hmm, in those days, the Three Great Sacred Lands also thought that Chen Zhixing was ’polluted’ by some external presence. If not, there was no way to explain how he cultivated so swiftly.
Even so, after the Three Great Sacred Lands, Saint Master Yimiao personally came to check. Although at that time, Yimiao had intentions of suppressing the Noble Family, in her heart, she also wished to protect the outstanding offspring of her former friend, hoping he would not become another Chen Wanhong.
So at that time, Yimiao gave Chen Zhixing three choices.
Cook, chauffeur, pet.
This was Yimiao’s definition of Chen Zhixing, who was very likely to be stuck forever at the threshold of the Longevity True Monarch, and it also clearly expressed that even if Chen Zhixing could not break through to the Longevity Realm in this life, after his death, Yimiao would help him condense the Golden Nature and take him to the Spirit Realm, giving him a way out.
So, from Yimiao’s perspective, she truly felt she was living up to the legacy of her late friend, Chen Xuanfeng, and really intended to lend a hand when the Chen Family fell into hardship.
Although the final outcome was not good, this does not mean Yimiao’s original intention was bad.
The reason Chen Zhixing received such treatment was fundamentally the precedent set by Chen Wanhong before him in the Ziwei Chen Family!
"In this world, there is no cultivation technique that allows someone to break into the Peak Realm at eighteen, at least not one with only a nine-inch three-point talent! After you accepted the Great Dream Inheritance, Chen Wanhong, you were summoned into the Celestial Saint Palace and observed for a long time. Every advancement in your cultivation was reported by the Three Great Sacred Lands people in charge of watching over you, and this continued until your cultivation reached that threshold. The Three Great Sacred Lands discovered that your cultivation had been locked, unable to advance further in this life, plus your grandfather Ancestor Chang Feng petitioned above, leading to the decision to let you return to Ziwei Mountain!"
With these words, Wang Chuan paused for a moment, then coldly looked at Chen Wanhong’s astonished eyes and said indifferently: "Why else do you think that shortly after you returned home, you were sent to the overseas Star Island for exploration? Even your father and grandfather ordered you not to leave Star Island for even a step?"
