Chapter 868 596: Far Travels (Final Chapter)_2
Even more terrifying is.
Because over the past century, thanks to the Celestial Profound Human Race's continuous expansion outward, many heavenly materials and earthly treasures that can increase Divine Sense and Thought Incarnations have flowed into Chen Zhixing's possession, causing the number of his Thought Incarnations to skyrocket.
In other words.
The current cultivation of Chen Zhixing is not solely based on his own power; it's as if a world is continuously expanding on his behalf, with tens of thousands of selves constantly assisting him in accumulation through Dream-Entering.
This gives him the confidence to push himself to the Peak of Celestial Immortal in the next six hundred years!
And now.
The obstacle he faces, the one of proving the path taken by the Taoist Lord of the Spirit Realm with a mortal body, is no longer considered an obstacle in front of him.
"With sufficient accumulation, life and death to me are but a matter of a single thought."
Inside Ziwei Heng Palace, someone who had remained silent for a long time suddenly spoke.
This made Xu Qingqing, who had been waiting beside him for a long time, look at him in disbelief.
"Husband...you, woke up?"
Indeed, from one hundred and eighty years ago to the present day, Chen Zhixing seems to have always been in a cycle of retreating, waking, going out to battle, suppressing law-breakers, and then retreating again.
As a result, even Xu Qingqing, who should have been a close companion, had very little communication with him.
"Hm? I...fell asleep?"
Chen Zhixing seemed a bit puzzled. He had always been sitting here, listening to the conversations of family and friends from the past, even paying attention to the developments of the Celestial Profound Human Race today. So why did Xu Qingqing think he was 'asleep'?
As soon as this thought occurred, Chen Zhixing already knew the answer.
"Oh, I slept for quite a while, now I'm a bit confused upon waking up, don't worry about it."
Speaking in this way saves time and effort, allowing him not to explain to those around him why he hasn't been speaking all these years; whether it was unnecessary to speak, or in his sense of time, not much time had passed, and by the time he wanted to reply, the person he wanted to converse with had already left.
Now having perfected the 36 Celestial Spirits Transformations, Chen Zhixing is truly a high sense of time lifeform, and once he proves the Tao of Celestial Immortal, both consciousness and body can live for billions of years.
So, the common perception of time cannot be applied to him anymore.
In other words, if someone engages in a less important conversation with Chen Zhixing while he is doing something important, making it impossible for him to focus his Divine Thought on the conversation, perhaps after two or three days he might have time to engage with them.
In his sense of time, this is merely a moment, whereas to outsiders, this is Chen Zhixing 'falling asleep'.
But if something important to Chen Zhixing occurs, he can engage in normal conversation... In the view of outsiders, this would be him 'waking up'.
But Chen Zhixing himself, has always been awake.
It's just that the time perception of the Longevity Race has become a part of his instinct, or it can be said that Chen Zhixing has adapted to it, while those around him have not.
"By the way, Qingqing."
"Ah?"
"I'm going to prove the Tao."
Xu Qingqing: "???"
...
An hour later.
Above Wuyou Immortal Tao, Xu Qingqing stood with her mouth agape, watching her husband's body suddenly explode in mid-air, transforming into scattered light points that merged with the enormous Emperor Ziwei Venerable Dharma Aspect that had lingered above the Celestial Profound Realm for centuries.
Proved the Tao?
Or...died?
For some reason, tears started streaming uncontrollably from Xu Qingqing's eyes. She knew what Chen Zhixing was doing at this moment might well be his way of proving the Tao, yet somehow she felt her husband might have 'died' at this moment.
Is it an illusion?
A day later.
Looking at the towering Emperor Ziwei Venerable Dharma Aspect, which was larger than any star, suddenly beginning to compress inward, many who were aware of the event started to gather around Wuyou Immortal Island.
They surrounded the immortal island's perimeter, not daring to step foot onto it.
They surrounded the Dharma Aspect, watching as this entity, revered as the greatest foundation of the Celestial Profound Human Race, gradually shrinks.
Finally, after almost a year.
The terrifying entity, once as massive as a celestial body, condensed into a common-sized glowing energy body.
Mahayana?
Celestial Immortal?
Or a new system developed by one's own Star Venerable?
Numerous Longevity Realm individuals watched the luminescent humanoid with a mix of bewilderment and hopeful anticipation, awaiting its first words.
But the light-cast humanoid did not fulfill their desire.
After stabilizing its humanoid form, it took steps upward in the air.
As it reached the seventh step, thunderclouds appeared in the sky, swiftly striking its body.
Upon taking the ninth step, a majestic thunder gate emerged before it.
In this manner.
The light-cast humanoid walked through twelve thunder gates, stepping upon five towering structures along the way.
It reached out and grabbed a seven-colored entity, as though pulling it from some distant void, absorbing it into its humanoid body.
Subsequently.
The towers were absorbed, the thunder tribulation was absorbed.
Thereby, all celestial phenomena ceased.
Only then did the light emanating from the humanoid slowly dissipate, revealing Chen Zhixing's features in detail.
"Is this...a Celestial Immortal?"
Suddenly, Chen Zhixing chuckled a few times, glancing dismissively at the gathered silhouettes around him, and stepped into the Celestial Profound Realm below.
From Wuyou Immortal Tao.
To Northern Domain Stone Village.
The distance of thousands of miles was but a single stride.
And regarding his arrival, Divine Liu seemed to be already prepared.
Seeing Chen Zhixing's current appearance, the Divine Liu smiled and offered a cup of emerald liquid.
"So, you couldn't wait even with six hundred years left until the millennial promise?"
"Perhaps." Without asking what the liquid was, Chen Zhixing took it and drank it down directly, then gazed at Divine Liu and said: "I probably lack humanity now."
"Is it a lack of humanity, or are you tired of deceiving them?"
"Don't be so blunt, it makes me feel ashamed."
"Aren't you the one who lacks humanity?"
"You said it, now I have it again."
"Then, will you wait for me for another six hundred years, and meanwhile, spend six hundred peaceful years with your family and friends?"
"Forget it, let's go now. I'll replenish the spirit charm you lack along the way. As for staying behind.... My presence has become a burden to them; it's better to leave."
"Leaving just like that?"
"Hm."
"What about the mess you leave behind, won't you care for it?"
Divine Liu looked at him knowingly, only Chen Zhixing at the moment could truly be considered her peer.
As gods, demons, immortals, and Buddhas, aside from the fundamental laws, everything else is external, is there really anything truly significant?
Chen Zhixing returned the smile.
He gestured with his hand, and on Wuyou Immortal Tao a million miles away, a phantom figure ringing the bell transformed into the likeness of Chen Zhixing.
The newly formed figure paused.
Realizing its circumstances, state, and even a portion of celestial immortal essence, it paid a grand salute to the now separated authentic self.
"Henceforth, I am Chen Zhixing."
"Indeed!"
As the sound echoed, the Star Venerable's silhouette was still beneath the large willow tree.
But when Chen Zhixing looked up, the figure and the tree had vanished without a trace.
As if they never existed.
Or as if they had already embarked on a far journey.
While the remaining 'true Chen Zhixing' knelt there, tears streaming down his face.
After a long while, he got up, wearing a smile, to meet his family.
Yes.
He is Chen Zhixing, one without recollection of a transmigrator, holding only the memories of Chen Zhixing himself.
And, beyond expectation, with his celestial immortal cultivation, he can live a peaceful and joyous life with his family for a long time to come.
