A Path Even Immortals Could Not Reach!

Chen Haotian murmured to himself, his tone carrying shock, relief, and a trace of reverence even he himself had not noticed.

With a single thought, he could bestow a million years of lifespan. One could only imagine just how absurdly powerful Chen Changqing truly was.

Behind him, Chen Yuanba and the other two had long since been dumbfounded.

They knew Ancestor Changqing was powerful, knew he had mastered countless Divine Abilities, and knew his talent was unparalleled throughout the ages.

But they had never imagined that their ancestor would be powerful to such an extent.

"Extend one's lifespan by a million years?"

Chen Yuanba opened his mouth, his eyes wide with disbelief. "Th-this... can he still be considered a cultivator? Isn't he an Immortal?"

Chen Musen took a deep breath. Though he said nothing, his face was likewise filled with profound shock.

After all, the Greater Divine Ability he had comprehended, Words Become Law, could also accomplish many unbelievable things.

But to make someone gain a million years of lifespan out of thin air?

That was simply a fantasy, utterly impossible!

He even had a strong intuition that, forget about adding a million years of lifespan—even adding a single day would probably drain all his spiritual power in an instant.

Yet Chen Changqing had just done it so casually, as though he had merely done something utterly insignificant.

The gap between the two of them could already be described as an impassable heavenly chasm.

"No wonder Ancestor is the Chen Family's Sole Divine Son. Even if he is sealed within Divine Source, no one can replace his position!"

Chen Qingshuang gripped the sword in her hand tightly. Her reverence for Chen Changqing grew even stronger, and she began to feel fortunate for her choice.

Being able to follow such a peerless genius was absolutely Chen Qingshuang's good fortune.

At this very moment—

Chen Zhian and Qin Mengyao felt it more keenly than anyone else.

The instant that stream of azure light entered their bodies, they felt as though every limb and bone had been wrapped in a warm power.

Then, their decayed flesh and blood, their depleted vitality, seemed to burst back into life, instantly returning to their peak state.

Whether it was their souls or their entire bodies, everything felt more comfortable than ever before.

Chen Zhian lowered his head to look at his hands. The skin that had once become dry and wrinkled with age now looked as youthful as a young man's.

Then he looked at Qin Mengyao. Her hair, which had been half white, had actually turned glossy black, and her face was no different from when she was eighteen.

The traces left upon them by the years had, at this moment, vanished without a trace!

The two looked at each other, each seeing incredulous shock in the other's eyes.

Immediately after—

Chen Zhian and Qin Mengyao turned at the same time to look at Chen Changqing before them.

What had happened for their son to possess such an unfathomable method?

"Changqing..."

Qin Mengyao's voice trembled, her eyes brimming with tears. "Y-you've awakened... Mother has finally seen you..."

She stepped forward and pulled Chen Changqing into her embrace, holding him tightly.

As though afraid that this was only a dream that would vanish the moment she let go.

Chen Zhian stood beside them, his lips moving as though he wanted to say something, yet in the end, he could not say a single word.

He merely stretched out his right hand and heavily patted Chen Changqing's shoulder several times, using great force, as though confirming that the son before him truly existed.

A father's love lay within his silence.

At this moment, Chen Changqing felt more grounded than ever before.

He had thought that in this life, he would never see them again.

Fortunately!

Everything was well!

This made him feel more fortunate than comprehending any Divine Ability ever could.

Qin Mengyao held Chen Changqing and cried for quite some time before gradually calming down.

She released him and looked him over from head to toe. The longer she looked, the redder her eyes became, her voice filled with heartache.

"You've grown thin... My son must have suffered greatly while sealed in Divine Source..."

Chen Changqing could not help but laugh.

He had slept wonderfully inside Divine Source. After waking up, his comprehension had nearly punched a hole through the heavens. If anyone had suffered, it certainly was not him.

Still, he did not argue. He merely stood there obediently and let his mother fuss over him.

Chen Haotian, standing nearby, could not help coughing before saying gloomily, "This brat didn't suffer. The ones who suffered were us old fellows. We waited a million years until we were practically hanging on by our last breath."

Only then did Qin Mengyao notice Chen Haotian beside them. She hurriedly wiped away her tears and pulled Chen Zhian into a bow. "Greetings, Ancestor Haotian."

Chen Zhian also clasped his hands. "Thank you, Ancestor, for granting us Divine Source all those years ago. Zhian and Mengyao are deeply grateful..."

"Enough, enough."

Chen Haotian waved his hand impatiently. "Cut the empty formalities. Changqing's contribution to the Chen Family is far more precious than those two pieces of Divine Source I gave back then."

He pointed at Chen Zhian, his tone sour. "For nothing else, just now Changqing said one sentence and added a million years to your lifespan."

"A million years!"

"Wouldn't that make even Great Emperors green with envy?"

Chen Zhian and Qin Mengyao were both stunned upon hearing this.

When that power had entered their bodies earlier, they had only known that their bodies had recovered. They had no idea what it truly was.

Now that Chen Haotian had said it, they realized that Chen Changqing had actually added a million years to their lifespan?

"Th-this..."

"A million years of lifespan?"

"Changqing, this can't possibly be real, can it?"

Chen Zhian stared wide-eyed at his son, his face full of shock. For a moment, he did not know what to say.

A million years of lifespan was a number they would not even dare dream of!

His son had just given them a million additional years of life?

Who would have thought that after being sealed in Divine Source and meeting again, Chen Changqing would have become powerful to such an extent?

Qin Mengyao covered her mouth in shock. Her eyes held both astonishment and delight, yet also some heartache.

For her son to possess such heaven-reaching abilities, he must have put in tremendous effort and gone through all kinds of dangers, mustn't he?

Seeing his parents' utterly shocked expressions, Chen Changqing nodded and smiled as he explained, "Father, Mother, there is no need to be surprised... This is the Immortality Divine Ability I comprehended. It can command the vitality of all things, granting longevity and freedom between heaven and earth..."

Before long, Chen Changqing told his parents about the Divine Ability Method.

The more Chen Zhian and Qin Mengyao listened, the more shocked they became, finding it utterly inconceivable.

This Divine Ability Method actually possessed such power?

Even imperial scriptures, or even immortal arts, were likely far inferior to it!

"Once my Dao Tree advances another step, let alone adding a million years to your lifespans—even ten million years, a hundred million years, or living as long as heaven and earth itself would not be difficult."

"In short—"

"From this day onward, neither you nor the entire Chen Family need worry about lifespan again."

Chen Changqing spoke with an incomparably confident smile.

The entire mausoleum fell silent in an instant.

Chen Haotian's mouth twitched.

This brat truly spoke without the slightest restraint!

However—

Deep down, he had no choice but to admit that everything Chen Changqing had said was probably true.

One day in the future, the entire Chen Family might truly achieve Longevity together!

From the moment Chen Changqing awakened, the Chen Family had already set foot upon a path that even Immortals could not reach!
