Because of Ancestor Changqing, the Chen Family Shall Be Invincible!

Chen Haotian had lived for so many years—how many formations had he seen?

Among them were no lack of peerless grand formations of Emperor rank!

Yet he had never heard of any formation capable of taking so many functions into account at once.

How was this still a formation?

This was clearly a self-contained miniature Heavenly Dao!

Even more outrageous, according to what Chen Changqing had just said, this formation was fully automated and required no human control whatsoever.

Only after a long while.

Did Chen Haotian finally recover from his shock. He drew in a sharp breath and stared fixedly at Chen Changqing.

"You... you brat..."

"What exactly is in that head of yours for you to come up with something so wildly imaginative?!"

As a Quasi-Emperor Realm expert, he understood better than anyone present what this "Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net" represented.

This was absolutely no mere defensive grand formation.

It was a system capable of changing the very structure and rules of the entire Great Desolate Realm!

With this formation's aid, the Chen Family would practically stand undefeated from this day onward!

With a Chen Family like this, why worry that they could not rise in this Golden Age?

Why worry that they could not suppress the myriad races of the heavens?

Chen Haotian drew a deep breath, then another, but he simply could not calm the shock in his heart.

He raised his head to gaze at the colossal formation slowly spreading through the void. Every formation pattern flowed with mysteries he had never seen before, and every node contained laws of formations beyond his comprehension.

He had lived for so long and considered himself broadly experienced and well-informed.

Yet after Chen Changqing awoke from a million years of slumber, he suddenly felt like an ignorant youth who had only just stepped across the threshold of cultivation.

"Good lad..."

Chen Haotian withdrew his gaze and heavily patted Chen Changqing on the shoulder. His weathered face was filled with emotion and pride. "The surprises you bring me are growing greater and greater."

When he had sealed Chen Changqing away a million years ago, all he had thought about was letting this Chaos Body boy attain the Dao and become Emperor in the age of great contention, leading the Chen Family toward glory.

But who could have imagined that after breaking free of his seal, this boy had not taken the ordinary road in the slightest.

First, he comprehended a Divine Ability Method that overturned the entire cultivation system. Then he came up with this heaven-defying formation capable of changing the landscape of formation arts throughout the Great Desolate Realm.

Whether it was the Divine Ability Method or this Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net... these were things Chen Haotian could not have dreamed of even in his wildest dreams.

"How did you even come up with it?"

Chen Haotian could not help asking again, his tone brimming with disbelief.

Chen Changqing merely smiled and offered no further explanation.

He could hardly say that his comprehension was only a tiny bit stronger, could he?

Just as Ancestor Chen Haotian's heart churned like storm-tossed seas.

The final formation pattern of the "Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net" silently embedded itself into the void.

Bzz—

A faint, almost imperceptible hum rippled outward from Purple Star in every direction, like a spring breeze brushing across water.

Immediately after.

A gentle, familiar voice rang out deep within the souls of every Chen Family member.

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

That was Ancestor Changqing's voice as he expounded the Dao!

Upon Purple Sun Peak.

Chen Zhian and Qin Mengyao, who had been sparring with Divine Abilities, both stopped moving.

The husband and wife looked at one another and saw the same unbelievable delight in each other's eyes.

"It's Changqing's voice!" Qin Mengyao cried out. "How can this be... He's clearly nowhere nearby, yet I can hear him so distinctly?"

Chen Zhian closed his eyes and sensed it for a moment, the shock on his face growing ever deeper. "It isn't only us. I'm afraid every member of the Chen Family is listening to this exposition of the Dao right now."

His judgment was correct.

Deep within the Chen Clan Ancestral Land, those Supreme Elders who had only just been filled with doubt and alarm were now all seated cross-legged, their eyes shut tight and their faces intoxicated with rapture.

It was not only these older powerhouses. The younger Chen Family disciples felt as though sweet rain had fallen after a long drought, their spiritual platforms becoming utterly clear.

"Did I hear wrong? It sounds like Ancestor Changqing is expounding the Dao?"

"It doesn't just sound like it—it's true! I hear it too!"

"Th-this... what is going on? The ancestor is clearly not here, but hearing him expound the Dao feels as though he is speaking right beside my ear!"

For a time, every member of the Chen Family was both thrilled and bewildered.

They did not understand why the ancestor's voice expounding the Dao had suddenly appeared within their consciousness.

But that did not stop them from thirstily drinking in this sudden exposition of the Dao.

Just then, that gentle voice sounded once more.

"Fellow clansmen, there is no need for alarm."

Chen Changqing's voice passed through the Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net and entered the ears of every Chen Family member in the Purple Star Domain.

"This is the Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net, a grand formation I specially created for the Chen Family."

"From this day onward, this formation shall cover the entirety of the Purple Star Domain. No matter where you are, so long as you remain within the star domain, you may listen to expositions of the Dao at any time and bathe in its Dao resonance."

"Beyond that, the Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net also possesses automated artifact refinement, automated pill refinement, automated talisman crafting, and more..."

"Any clansman wishing to refine a personal jade talisman to connect with the Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net may prepare the materials themselves and bring them to the Artifact Refining Pavilion for refinement. The talisman's quality depends on the materials, but this will not affect its core functions."

"The personal jade talisman comes with storage, teleportation, communication, and many other functions. Once you have successfully refined one, you will naturally understand its specific uses."

After understanding the functions of the "Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net," every member of the Chen Family felt their scalps go numb.

Automated artifact refinement? Automated pill refinement? Automated talisman crafting?

Storage? Teleportation? Communication?

Listening to expositions of the Dao anytime, anywhere?

Heavens!

Th-this was still a formation?!

Ancestor Changqing's methods were simply too outrageous!

After a brief, stunned silence.

The entire Purple Star Domain erupted in thunderous cheers, like mountains roaring and seas crashing.

"The Divine Son is invincible!"

"The ancestor is invincible!"

"Our Chen Family... our Chen Family is about to sweep across the present age!"

"Could it be that I, too, have a chance to ascend to immortality?"

At this moment!

Cheers rang without end throughout the Chen Family.

Upon Purple Sun Peak.

Chen Yuanba threw back his head and laughed wildly, his dark face filled with fervor.

He grabbed Chen Musen by the sleeve, so excited that his words came out in a jumble. "Musen, did you hear that?! The ancestor made some kind of Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net! From now on, we can listen to the ancestor expound the Dao anytime and anywhere!"

Chen Musen was shaken until his head swam. Only with difficulty did he break free, and even his usually calm face revealed a rare smile. "I heard it, of course I heard it. The ancestor... he truly is so powerful!"

They had already experienced the might of the Divine Ability Method.

Now that they also had the Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net strengthening them, would the Chen Family not soar into the heavens?

"What are you still standing around for?!"

Chen Yuanba was the first to react. He turned and sprinted outside. "Hurry and find materials to refine jade talismans! If we get there too late, the Artifact Refining Pavilion will be packed to bursting!"

At those words, Chen Musen and Chen Qingshuang also came to their senses. Without another word, they followed after him.

And at this very moment—

Those older powerhouses could no longer sit still either, their faces all filled with disbelief.

"Unprecedented through the ages, unprecedented through the ages!"

A Clan Elder of immensely senior standing gazed up at the sky and sighed. Tears unexpectedly welled in his clouded old eyes.

"This old man has lived for so long, yet I never imagined that in my lifetime, I would see the Chen Family possess such a formation."

"Ancestor Changqing is truly a divine man!"

"From this day onward, with this Dao-Comprehension Heavenly Net, why should the Chen Family fear being unable to rise in this Golden Age?"

Another elder took up the words, his voice overflowing with excitement he could not suppress.

Such cheers rose and fell through every corner of the Purple Star Domain.

The face of every Chen Family member shone with heartfelt ecstasy and pride.

At this moment, everyone understood.

Because of Ancestor Changqing, the Chen Family would truly become invincible among the heavens this time!
