At this thought, Heaven Abyss Daoist said, "I'm going to spend sixty years recovering. Once I'm back at my peak, I'll attempt to enter the World-Opening Realm."
"Then you can come watch, fellow Daoist. It should help you prepare for your own world-opening."
"Very well."
Chen Nianzhi nodded. Watching someone else open the Nine Heavens could give him valuable insight, too.
At the very least, he could get a rough sense of how difficult it was to open the Nine Heavens, then use that to estimate the difficulty of his own attempt. That way, he could avoid failing to open the Nine Heavens someday and meeting his end, his Dao destroyed.
With that in mind, Chen Nianzhi smiled and said, "I'll be there. I wouldn't miss the chance to see you open the Nine Heavens."
They had said all they needed to say, and let the conversation rest.
Chen Nianzhi lent Heaven Abyss Daoist the Profound Yin Heaven-Slaying Sword so he could refine it and use it in his attempt to enter the World-Opening Realm.

After all these years apart, Jiang Linglong and Qing Ji had both emerged from seclusion, and both had gained tremendously.
Of the two, Qing Ji had successfully cultivated the Yin-Yang Azure Lotus Dao. This law was a great Three-Talents Law, formed from the fusion of the laws of extreme yin, extreme yang, and the Azure Lotus.
The power contained in the unity of these three laws was astonishing.
It was even a little stronger than Chen Nianzhi's Pure Yang Heavenly Fire and Primordial Ancient Gold laws, and only slightly inferior to the three Dao Fruits of Chen Nianchuan's Buddhist, Daoist, and Demonic paths.
