Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family-Chapter 187 - 180: The World Boils Over! Celestial Wave Divine Son, Fame Soars!
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
For the East Profound Domain, three days are just like a blink of an eye for a cultivator.
However, during these three days.
The East Profound Domain, which had been calm for countless ages, suddenly erupted with unprecedented fervor!
The eldest son of the Meng Family, Meng Hedong, the foremost talent of the current age, answered the ten-year appointment and visited the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands!
The Celestial Wave Divine Son, Xiao Ping, struck, and within half an incense stick’s time, defeated Meng Hedong, destroyed his Great Tao Foundation, and ruined his cultivation!
Prominent and peerless, believed by many to be the top talent in the Mortal World, with great prospects for future Longevity, Meng Hedong, was rendered a cripple overnight!
When this news spread, it instantly swept across the entire East Profound Domain!
In an instant, the entire world was shaken!
The entire East Profound Domain was in an uproar!
Countless people were dumbfounded, unable to believe it!
How could Meng Hedong, undefeated in countless battles and crushing numerous talents, be defeated by an obscure figure, and even have his cultivation abolished?
However.
When someone took out the profound light mirror recording everything outside the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands, all doubts were dispelled.
The entire East Profound Domain was left in dead silence and shock!
According to the images relayed by the profound light mirror, the disparity in strength in this battle far exceeded everyone’s imagination!
The once-dominant Meng Hedong appeared as powerless as a weak infant before Xiao Ping.
The terrifying Great Divine Techniques Meng Hedong executed seemed to exude a sense of oppression that spectators could feel even through the profound light mirror!
Yet, despite this.
Those Great Divine Techniques were deflected by the outstretched hands of the Celestial Wave Divine Son, Xiao Ping!
If not for the intervention of Medicine King Xunn Puzi from Medicine King Valley, Meng Hedong might have been slain on the spot outside the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands!
How terrifying is this?
In that moment.
Numerous cultivators in the East Profound Domain felt a chill throughout their bodies, their scalps tingling!
That Celestial Wave Divine Son, Xiao Ping, was frighteningly strong, to a degree beyond comprehension!
While Meng Hedong was also powerful, his strength was at least traceable.
However, the strength of the Celestial Wave Divine Son, Xiao Ping, transcended their understanding!
This was power beyond what should belong to the True Self Realm!!!
Subsequently, the downfall of the two Peak Leaders of Celestial Wave, and the eventual emergence of the Primordial Ancient Race and the Celestial Wave Saint Master, pushed this matter to the peak of public contention!
It was evident to anyone observant.
With Meng Hedong being crippled, it would inevitably become the spark for an unprecedented war among several major forces!!
For the moment, dark currents surged throughout the East Profound Domain.
Countless people were certain that an unprecedented great war was about to sweep in!
The name ’Celestial Wave Divine Son’ Xiao Ping became resounding throughout the East Profound Domain!!
...
...
Qing State, Meng Family.
Taian City.
Located in the very center of Taian City, there was a grand and vast palace complex, occupying most of the city.
This complex was entirely black, constructed in the shape of spires.
Only the central palace had a treasured roof with flying eaves, appearing to dominate everything for miles and occupying the heart of the palace complex with green tiles and black walls inscribed with Divine Patterns.
Below the palace was a vast expanse of densely packed black jade steps stretching into the distance.
An old servant, holding a profound light mirror with both hands raised above his head, hurriedly ascended the steps.
A report was presented to the imperial court.
Instantly, the deep sound of drums reverberated throughout the Meng Family.
The next moment.
The door of the central palace in the complex slowly opened outward.
The old servant held the profound light mirror above his head, his face extremely pale, and bowed upon entering.
About half an incense stick’s time later.
"Dong’er!!!"
A heart-wrenching cry echoed throughout the Meng Family.
Soon after.
A voice filled with utmost sorrow and anger emanated from the great hall.
"Sound the Ninefold Drum and issue the command to the world!"
"All disciples of the Meng Family return at once, prepare the military force, don your iron armor!"
"I, Meng Yuntian, swear here, I will level the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands and sever the head of that Celestial Wave Divine Son, Xiao Ping!!"
"Someone, quickly bring the ancestor out of seclusion!!!"
...
...
Yanzhou.
Ziwei Chen Family.
Main peak, Patriarch’s Hall.
Amidst curling sandalwood smoke, the entire Patriarch’s Hall was cold and desolate.
A burly old man with white hair draped over his shoulders sat cross-legged on a meditation mat, eyes closed, meditating quietly.
Thump, thump, thump.
Heavy footsteps sounded.
The next moment, an old man with a pale face and no beard hurriedly walked into the hall.
"Patriarch, something major has happened!"
Elder Nether stood firmly in front of Chen Daoyan, his usual playful expression replaced by utmost seriousness at this moment.
"What is it?"
Chen Daoyan slowly opened his eyes.
"The Third Young Master, right in front of the Medicine King Valley and Primordial Ancient Race, abolished Meng Hedong of the Qing State Meng Family!"
Elder Nether spoke in a heavy tone, while flipping his right hand to reveal a profound light mirror.
"Oh?"
Chen Daoyan raised an eyebrow, then took the profound light mirror to look at it.
About half an hour later.
Chen Daoyan handed the profound light mirror back to Elder Nether, his eyes flashing continuously, a slight smile on his lips.
"Patriarch, it’s an urgent time like this, how can you still smile?"
Elder Nether paced back and forth anxiously:
"Meng Hedong to the Meng Family, is like the Third Young Master to our Chen Family! Now that Meng Hedong is abolished, the Meng Family is sure to go mad, and the Third Young Master staying in the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands might be in danger!"
Compared to Elder Nether’s anxiety, Chen Daoyan remained calm, smiling slightly:
"My grandson Zhixing has the potential for longevity!"
"Why can’t I smile?"
Upon hearing this, Elder Nether couldn’t help but feel a headache, saying: "Patriarch, is this the time to talk about this?"
Chen Daoyan didn’t reply but narrowed his eyes, looking towards the endless sky outside the hall.
"Elder Nether, my grandson is truly well hidden; whenever I think I’ve guessed his power, he suddenly gives me an even bigger surprise."
"This boy, is much stronger than I was at his age."
Hearing this, Elder Nether was slightly stunned, then nodded with a smile: "Indeed. The Third Young Master is the most exceptionally talented person I have met in terms of talent and strength, beyond even the description of heavenly grace..."
As he spoke.
Clap!
Elder Nether slapped his forehead, saying: "Patriarch, I got so interrupted by you that I even forgot where I was!"
"Right, the Third Young Master is in great danger now! Should I make a trip to the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands to bring the Third Young Master back?"
"What’s the rush?" Chen Daoyan shook his head, slowly rising from the mat, looking into the distance:
"The East Profound Domain has been peaceful for too long, so much so that I find it somewhat unfamiliar."
"The world seems to have forgotten about me, Chen Daoyan, forgotten about the Ziwei Chen Family."
"Perhaps it’s time for the world to get to know me again."
Chen Daoyan murmured to himself, then looked at Elder Nether:
"Alright, you and Elder Ming have been suppressing your cultivation levels for years, seeking so-called opportunities; it’s time to break through to the Nirvana Realm."
Upon hearing this, Elder Nether scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed: "Should we wait a bit longer? I feel if Elder Ming and I hold on a bit more, we might break through to the Nirvana Ninth Layer!"
"No chance!"
Chen Daoyan looked at Elder Nether with some exasperation: "You two are just dreaming, thinking about entering the Nirvana Ninth Layer? Why not be a bit bolder and jump straight to the peak? Then you can take turns sitting in the patriarch’s seat, how about that?"
Upon hearing this, Elder Nether gave a dry laugh: "There’s nothing wrong with dreaming..."
"Alright, cut the nonsense, with your foundations, it would be lucky to reach the Nirvana Seventh Layer after all these years."
Chen Daoyan shook his head, saying:
"Come, follow me to the third layer of the dark cage."
"Some old friends are due to see the light of day."
"Hiss—! Are those lunatics coming out?" Elder Nether gasped, his face showing shock.
...
...
Meanwhile.
In a dark, damp, lush forest with towering canopies that rarely see light.
"Brother Bufan, where is this place? It doesn’t seem like the route to Qing State, does it?" Little Poison Immortal closely followed behind Chen Chou’er, occasionally glancing at the miasma-laden, insect-ridden forest around them, feeling a bit apprehensive.
"Xiao Ping’s killing intent towards Brother Meng is so strong, what if he sets an ambush on our way back to the Meng Family to assassinate us, wouldn’t that be a big trouble?"
Chen Chou’er carried Meng Hedong on his back, walking forward while replying:
"As for this path, it is a mountain trail leading to Taian City in Qing State, it does require a detour, making the journey longer, but it can avoid danger."
Upon hearing this, Little Poison Immortal couldn’t help but nod secretly: "Brother Bufan is truly thorough in his thinking."
Her voice fell as she cast a grateful glance at Chen Chou’er.
If not for Brother Bufan’s thorough considerations, if it had been her, she might have stubbornly taken the old path and fallen into the bad guys’ ambush!
Thinking of this, Little Poison Immortal felt a shiver of fear inside.
The two walked a bit further.
A gigantic cavern appeared beside them.
Chen Chou’er paused, put Meng Hedong down from his back, looked at Little Poison Immortal behind him, and smiled warmly:
"Let’s rest here for a bit."
"Little Poison Immortal, head about two hundred miles east, there is a small town called Tiaoma Town, go get some food for Brother Meng, I will wait for you here."
"Now Brother Meng is in a mortal body; he needs some food to replenish energy."
"Alright, alright, I will go now." Little Poison Immortal heard this, with no hesitation, nodded quickly:
"Then Brother Bufan, I’ll trouble you to watch over Brother Meng here, I will be back soon."
"Mmm, go ahead, no rush."
Chen Chou’er waved his hand, smiling gently.
Moreover, he rarely made a joke:
"Don’t worry, nothing will happen with me here."
Little Poison Immortal laughed at his words, "I never thought Brother Bufan, who usually seems so serious, is actually this interesting."
She nodded, no longer hesitating.
With a step, she transformed into a stream of light, shooting towards the east.
Soon, the entire forest was left in silence.
Only the faint sounds of insects and the rustling of leaves in the mountain wind remained.
Chen Chou’er watched as Little Poison Immortal went into the distance, the smile gradually fading from his face.
Then.
He lowered his head, looking at the still-unconscious Meng Hedong.
