"Not at all."
The immortals all smiled faintly at this. Chen Nianzhi now wielded a Heaven-Opening supreme treasure, and even among Earth Immortals at Great Perfection, his combat strength ranked at the very top.
A favor from such a powerhouse was exceedingly valuable.
"I was waiting for you to say that."
Daoist Purple Mystery smiled slightly, then said, "In a few more years, I will need your help with something."
"Oh?"
Chen Nianzhi paused, a hint of puzzlement appearing on his face.
Daoist Purple Mystery nodded and said, "In a hundred thousand years, I will begin condensing Taiyi Dao Laws. When the time comes, I will need you to stand guard for me."
"Breaking through to the Taiyi realm?"
Chen Nianzhi was immediately astonished.
For an immortal at Earth Immortal Great Perfection, breaking through to the Taiyi realm was no easy matter.
Countless Earth Immortals at Great Perfection had failed when attempting to break into the Taiyi realm.
Yet on closer thought, it seemed only natural that Daoist Purple Mystery might break through to the Taiyi realm.
After all, he had cultivated three Heaven-Opening foundations and opened up eight layers of heaven and earth. With such foundations and accumulated strength, his chance of successfully reaching the Taiyi realm could not be less than forty percent.
Daoist Purple Mystery had reached Earth Immortal Great Perfection several million years ago. After accumulating power for millions of years, he had likely long since gathered all the spiritual treasures needed to break through to the Taiyi realm.
By this reckoning, he had at least a fifty to sixty percent chance of successfully cultivating Taiyi Dao Laws.
But this was not a time of Dao Tribulation. If he attempted to break through to the Taiyi realm now, enemies would certainly come to obstruct his path.
