Chapter 859 592: Wind Bell Powder
"How about it, in human terms, this process is a transformation from animal to plant. In fact, throughout the vast Star Sea, many Human Race cultivators, unwilling to transform into the Immortal Race, choose to transform into plants to extend their lifespans. This can be considered a second Longevity Technique, second only to the path of becoming an immortal."
Divine Liu's tone was rather playful when saying this.
What is meant by the second technique aside from becoming an immortal?
The Immortal Race can achieve longevity because they are not bound by the physical body. Coupled with the cultivation of the 36 Celestial Spirits Transformations, they can slow the aging of their consciousness, which fundamentally constitutes the Immortal Race's essence of longevity and far-sightedness.
So why can plants achieve longevity?
Don't say that plants generally live longer than the Human Race. In reality, 99% of plants have a lifespan shorter than humans. The remaining ones are each strange flowers and grasses, and their longevity relies on the fact that they possess little consciousness, or their consciousness is peculiar, much like the Immortal Race, with a strange sense of time.
But even so, the lifespan of these Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots cannot be as long as that of the Immortal Race!
There are only two kinds of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots that truly linger in legends: one is cultivated by Great Powers of the Golden Immortal and above realms, gaining a portion of the Golden Nature, thus achieving a lifespan beyond natural limits, which only a very few top-tier Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots receive.
More common is the other kind, which also necessitates cultivation in transformation into immortals!
If not for this, why are ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum, Huangjing, and other transforming spirit medicines in those stories eager to become immortals after cultivating for thousands of years?
Only by becoming immortal can one truly achieve longevity and far-sightedness!
This is the consensus among all the races still active in the Hengyu Realm today!
As for the second path Divine Liu mentioned?
A Chaos Life like it, besides offering the practice of the Chaos Divine Demon Tao, what other longevity method could it provide?
"You want me to start cultivating the Chaos Divine Demon Tao now."
Almost instantly grasping Divine Liu's implication, Chen Zhixing raised an eyebrow, though not surprised.
Divine Liu never concealed its intention for him to walk the Chaos Divine Demon Path. Now, using the pretext of dragon blood, stating it was nothing out of the ordinary.
Chen Zhixing didn't have much aversion to this.
Because transforming into a Chaos Divine Demon was always the path he anticipated. However, compared to making a complete transformation now, Chen Zhixing wished to wait until his cultivation reached the Mahayana Tier or after becoming a Celestial Immortal before fully transforming.
This is not because there is anything inherently wrong with the path of the Chaos Divine Demon, but from a cautious standpoint, Chen Zhixing felt that, since there is still a path ahead, there is no need to recklessly step onto an unfamiliar path.
After all, for him now, attaining Celestial Immortal enlightenment within the next millennium is almost inevitable.
Rather than rashly transforming into a Chaos Divine Demon now and cutting off his retreat, it is better to wait until he attains Celestial Immortal enlightenment in the future before completing the transformation!
A thousand years is not so long to Chen Zhixing now, but to mortals, it's enough to witness several dynastic changes and accompany his parents through their later years. Considering their talent, the Nirvana Realm is their limit, without the possibility of reaching the Peak Realm.
By then, Chen Zhixing could say most of his worldly ties are settled, leaving only his wife, Lu Qingqing, and his son, Chen Moqing, whose whereabouts are currently unknown, as his only bonds in this grand universe.
He need not even worry about his son, Chen Moqing.
As long as he takes care of his wife, Lu Qingqing, by then, Chen Zhixing could be carefree, unencumbered, and even if something unexpected occurs during the transformation into a Chaos Divine Demon, it would be an acceptable outcome.
Therefore, although Chen Zhixing does not resist transforming into a Chaos Divine Demon, he does not wish to undertake such a transformation now.
He still hopes to continue to accompany his family.
And this is a part of human nature.
Yes.
After Chen Zhixing expressed his intentions, things became much easier to deal with.
After hearing Chen Zhixing's words, Divine Liu smiled and nodded at him:
"That's fine. A mere thousand years will pass in the blink of an eye for you and me. I can wait for you a millennium in this Celestial Profound Realm. Coincidentally, my main body will likely have returned to its peak by then, and we can leave this remote world together."
"Alright," Chen Zhixing nodded in agreement, not even questioning why transforming into a Chaos Divine Demon would require leaving the Celestial Profound Realm, as apart from his family, he felt little attachment to the Celestial Profound Realm itself.
This is almost a common trait among all high-tier cultivators.
As long as they have a method to achieve good and peaceful cultivation anywhere, they do not hold a special sentiment toward any particular realm.
"Oh, by the way, I also have a dose of wind bell powder here. If you take it, it can suppress the drawbacks of beast blood for three hundred years. You can temporarily use it to suppress the affliction within you," Divine Liu said, handing a wooden medicine box to Chen Zhixing with a branch of the willow tree: "However, this medicine can only be taken once, and you will need to find another solution for the remaining seven hundred years."
"Thank you, I won't be polite with you."
