"Changqing, your family of three has not seen each other for a long time. Have a proper reunion."

Chen Haotian waved his hand, a gratified smile appearing on his face. "I happen to have some matters to attend to, so I will not disturb you further."

With that said.

Without waiting for Chen Changqing's response, he turned and strode away.

After taking only a few steps, Chen Haotian suddenly turned back. His gaze fell on Chen Changqing, and a meaningful curve tugged at his lips. "Kid, if you have any plans going forward, come discuss them with me anytime."

"The Chen Family has remained hidden for a million years. It is time for the skies of the Great Desolate Realm to change."

As his voice fell, purple robes flashed, and he vanished into the void.

Chen Changqing watched the direction his ancestor had departed in, warmth rising in his heart.

Thanks to his ancestor, he had been able to reunite with his parents.

"Father, Mother."

Chen Changqing turned around with a faint smile. "Let us head back first."

"Back?" Qin Mengyao froze for a moment, then seemed to recall something. "Oh, you mean... that cave abode?"

Chen Changqing nodded.

A million years ago, when he had claimed the position of Divine Son, the Chen Family had bestowed upon him that highest-grade cave abode.

It was the cultivation grounds belonging exclusively to him, the Sole Divine Son. In the entire Chen Family, there was no second place that could compare to it.

Before sealing himself in Divine Source, he had personally set down restrictions. Only he and his parents could open it.

Then.

Chen Changqing smiled faintly and swept his sleeve.

An invisible force lifted everyone up. Light and shadow shifted before their eyes, while the void flowed away to either side like running water.

The next moment.

A cave abode floating above the clouds appeared before them.

Chen Yuanba and the other two stood behind Chen Changqing. When they entered the cave abode and saw its interior, they all sucked in a cold breath.

What cave abode was this?

It was clearly a small world!

All around the cave abode, mountain ranges encircled the land.

The peaks rose and fell like dragon spines, layer upon layer stretching deep into the clouds and mist.

Waterfalls hung upside down like the Milky Way, crashing down from towering cliffs and scattering mist across the sky.

Under the sunlight, the mist refracted seven-colored halos, bathing the entire cave abode in a glow like a fairyland.

Pavilions and towers stood in orderly rows, their upturned eaves hidden amid misty willows.

Winding corridors followed winding streams like ribbons, linking palace after palace together.

Farther away lay an endless lake of emerald waves. White mist curled over its surface, and several spirit carp could vaguely be seen leaping from the water, sending ripples spreading outward.

The lakeshore was planted with all kinds of spirit herbs and immortal blossoms: thousand-year Purple Spirit Ganoderma, ten-thousand-year Blood Ginseng, Nine-Leaf Soul-Concentrating Flowers...

Any one of them, placed in the outside world, would be enough to make Saint King Realm experts fight until their heads bled.

Yet here, they grew wildly like ordinary weeds...

"Is this the ancestor's cave abode?"

Chen Musen stood at the entrance, his gaze sweeping over the picturesque scenery around him. His voice was filled with irrepressible shock.

He had been born with a Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart, and his perception of all spiritual energy fluctuations far surpassed that of ordinary people.

Because of this, he understood better than anyone just how terrifying this cave abode was.

How dense was the spiritual energy pervading the void?

With every breath, he felt as though he were swallowing a spirit pill.

And how pure was the Dao aura drifting through the air?

Simply standing here, his state of mind became calmer than ever before, as though even stray thoughts could no longer arise.

"I had long heard that the Chen Family possessed a top-grade Saint-rank cave-abode Dao artifact, which only the Divine Son could use. Seeing it today, its reputation is indeed well deserved." (Artifact grades are: Yellow rank, Profound rank, Earth rank, Heaven rank, Saint rank, and Emperor rank! Among them, only a Destiny Emperor can refine an Emperor-rank Dao artifact with the power of the destiny laws.)

Chen Qingshuang stood with her sword in hand. A rare flicker of surprise crossed her cool, beautiful face.

This cave abode truly was extraordinary.

A top-grade Saint-rank Dao artifact was considered peak-tier even in the entire Great Desolate Realm, much less such a special cave-abode artifact.

No wonder only the Divine Son was qualified to use it.

Chen Changqing led his parents and Chen Yuanba's group through the winding corridors. Along the way, rare flowers, strange stones, spirit birds, and auspicious beasts could be seen everywhere.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they arrived before a palace.

"There are more rooms in the cave abode than enough. Pick whichever one you like."

Chen Changqing gave Chen Yuanba and the other two a brief instruction.

Upon hearing this, the three quickly agreed.

Then, they began looking around for rooms.

As he searched, Chen Yuanba excitedly muttered things like, "Cultivating in seclusion here will let me advance by leaps and bounds every day," and, "Following the ancestor was definitely the right choice!"

At that moment—

Qin Mengyao stepped through the gates. Her eyes swept over the familiar sights around her, and her eye sockets involuntarily reddened again.

Not a blade of grass or a single tree here had changed, as though the million years that had passed had never flowed by at all.

She withdrew her gaze and impatiently took Chen Changqing's hand, her voice carrying both heartache and urgency. "Changqing, hurry and tell your mother. What exactly have you gone through all these years? That Immortality Divine Ability... such a heaven-defying method—how did you comprehend it?"

In her eyes, for her son to possess such heaven-reaching, earth-piercing means, he must have endured countless hardships beyond ordinary imagination.

Chen Changqing merely shook his head gently.

"Mother, there is no need to worry."

"In truth, just like you, I only awakened from Divine Source not long ago."

"As for that Divine Ability Method..."

"I merely happened to gain some insight when I awakened, and comprehended it naturally."

Qin Mengyao was stunned.

Chen Zhian was stunned as well.

He had just awakened from Divine Source, yet he had directly comprehended such an outrageous method? One that could increase someone's lifespan by a million years?

This... this sounded far too fantastical.

Chen Zhian hurriedly asked, "Changqing, is your Divine Ability Method truly without any consumption when used, just as you said earlier?"

Having cultivated for so long, he knew well that there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

The stronger a cultivation technique or spell was, the more terrifying its consumption would be. This was an iron law of the cultivation world that had remained unchanged since ancient times.

Yet when Chen Changqing had restored his and his wife's vitality and granted them a million years of lifespan, there had truly been no fluctuation of true essence or laws whatsoever. This had completely surpassed his understanding of cultivation.

Seeing his father like this, Chen Changqing could not help laughing.

"Father, the Divine Ability Method truly has no consumption."

"This method is completely different from the cultivation system of the Great Desolate Realm..."

Chen Changqing explained the general nature of the Divine Ability Method.

After a pause.

He continued, "Since you are interested in it, I will now give you a Dao lecture. Perhaps you may also comprehend one or two Divine Abilities from it."

The moment those words came out.

Before Chen Zhian and Qin Mengyao could react, Chen Yuanba and the other two, who had been choosing rooms, hurriedly slipped over in unison.

The three exchanged glances, then almost simultaneously sat cross-legged at the entrance.

Their movements were perfectly synchronized and incomparably swift.

As for choosing rooms? They had long flung that matter beyond the ninth heaven.

What could possibly be more important than listening to Chen Changqing expound the Dao?

Chen Changqing looked at the three of them, so impatient that they could barely wait, and merely smiled faintly without minding.

"The Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao..."

The familiar voice of the Dao gradually echoed through the cave abode.

This time, Chen Changqing explained the essence of the Divine Ability Method even more thoroughly and in greater detail.

An hour later!

Chen Changqing stopped his lecture.

Qin Mengyao slowly opened her eyes, surprise and frustration both showing on her face. "Changqing, the Dao you explained is indeed profoundly mysterious. Several times just now, Mother felt as though she was about to grasp something, but the instant I opened my eyes, I forgot it all again."

Chen Zhian nodded as well and smiled bitterly. "Your father was the same. I clearly felt that I was only one kick away from the threshold, yet I simply could not step through it."

Hearing this, Chen Changqing had already reached a judgment in his heart.

His parents' talent and comprehension could indeed only be considered ordinary. Without some fortunate opportunity to assist them, they would likely find it difficult even to comprehend a Lesser Divine Ability.

This was only normal.

A million years ago, within the Chen Family, although his father Chen Zhian and mother Qin Mengyao had been fairly diligent, their innate aptitude and comprehension had ultimately fallen short compared to true prodigies.

Before being sealed, both of their cultivations had been no more than the Transcendent Realm, the same as his.

Even among those Saint King Realm Supreme Elders of the Chen Family, after listening to his lecture, only a little over ten had managed to comprehend Divine Abilities.

His parents' comprehension was average, so it was only reasonable that they had not comprehended a Divine Ability on the spot.

"Only..."

Chen Changqing furrowed his brow slightly as he pondered in silence.

He had already given his parents a million years of lifespan, so there was no need to worry about that.

But if they could not comprehend Divine Abilities, his parents would ultimately have to walk the orthodox cultivation path of the Great Desolate Realm, and their combat power would be far weaker.

What way is there to help Father and Mother cross this threshold?

Chen Changqing's brow creased slightly.

His terrifying comprehension, accumulated over a million years, began operating with unprecedented efficiency at that moment.

His thoughts flashed like lightning, his ideas surging like tides.

In no more than the blink of an eye.

A flash of inspiration suddenly streaked through Chen Changqing's sea of consciousness.

Words Become Law... could it directly increase comprehension?
