Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family-Chapter 38: Go to the Southern Border, Obtain the Divine Technique, Tread upon the True Self!

Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Go to the Southern Border, Obtain the Divine Technique, Tread upon the True Self!

The entire Ziwei Chen Family was in tumult.

Yet, within the Third Peak where Chen Zhixing resided, everything was peaceful.

"Ha~~, boring trial."

Chen Zhixing sat on the chair, unable to suppress a yawn.

He wasn’t really interested in the Southern Border trial.

With his cultivation at the Divine Travel Ninth Layer, participating in such a trial was like a college student taking an elementary school exam.

Is it interesting?

No, not interesting at all.

The real reason he was going to the Southern Border was that he remembered the plot of "Great Cultivation" from his previous life, which mentioned a tomb of a Taoist Jiu Feng in the depths of the Southern Border’s vast mountains.

Taoist Jiu Feng was not a particularly prominent figure in the cultivation realm.

By the time he died, his cultivation was only at the Peak of Divine Travel.

But this man had once had great fortune in his youth and obtained a True Self Technique called the Nine Gods Technique!

Typically, in the True Self Realm, one would integrate their Yin Spirit with themselves to form a Great Tao Seed.

This Great Tao Seed has another name: Heaven-Earth Manifestation!

For example, the Infinite Blood Realm released by Chen Tianliang in Lin’an City was his Heaven-Earth Manifestation!

However, the Nine Gods Technique took a different approach; in each realm of the True Self Realm, a Great Tao Seed could be condensed.

This means that if this technique was cultivated to the True Self Ninth Layer, there would be nine manifestations of Heaven-Earth!

How terrifying is that?

Sadly.

Taoist Jiu Feng did not live to cultivate this technique to the True Self Realm; he died of old age in the vast mountains.

Alas, such was fate.

The purpose of Chen Zhixing’s visit to the Southern Border was precisely for the Nine Gods Technique!

As he’s about to step into the True Self Realm, he urgently needed a True Self Technique!

This Nine Gods Technique was undoubtedly his top choice!

"In the game ’Great Cultivation’ from my previous life, a Celestial Chosen Protagonist acquired this technique, and after obtaining it, became invincible within the same realm, laying the foundation for becoming invincible later."

"Calculating the time, it should be three years before the Celestial Chosen Protagonist acquires this technique."

"I... can intercept it ahead of time."

Chen Zhixing’s eyes continually glimmered.

Going to the Southern Border, acquiring the divine technique, stepping into the True Self!

His aim this time was clear.

"Young master, these are mung bean cakes, osmanthus cakes, and red bean cakes I’ve made for you. If you get hungry over there, eat some pastries."

Biluo busied herself packing for Chen Zhixing while chattering away.

"Young master, this is your first time traveling far; carry more spirit stones just in case something happens, you can have a contingency."

"Young master, I heard there are a lot of snakes, insects, mosquitoes, and ants in the Southern Border. I’ve prepared various antitoxic pills for you; they’re on the table; don’t forget..."

"Young master, I prepared ten sets of clothes and undergarments for you to change and wash. You’ve been fond of cleanliness since you were young..."

Chen Zhixing came to his senses and couldn’t help but smile a little.

In reality, at his level of cultivation, he was already immune to all poisons, his body unstained, and no longer needed food or drink.

However, he still gently and repeatedly touched the storage ring on his ring finger, patiently listening.

"Young master, you’ve had people serving you since childhood; how will you manage alone this time? Should I... perhaps come with you?" Biluo looked up, still somewhat uneasy, worriedly saying.

"Silly girl, I’m just going for a few days, and the clan elders will be there too."

Chen Zhixing stood up, ruffled Biluo’s head, and smiled warmly.

Immediately, he stored all the large and small packages Biluo had packed into his storage ring, then shouldered a sandalwood sword box.

"Let’s go."

...

...

When Chen Zhixing arrived at the mountain gate plaza.

The entire mountain gate plaza was already gathered with twenty to thirty young members of the Chen Family!

Chen Zhixing glanced around; most of their cultivation was at the Nourishing Spirit Realm, with only a few reaching the Void Transformation Realm.

Among them, two people slightly caught Chen Zhixing’s attention.

One was a youth with long purple hair cascading down, his entire body displaying Void Transformation cultivation, with traces of Great Tao Runes flickering in his eyes.

The other was a strange youth with a pair of knives at his waist and half of his face covered with a refined iron mask.

This dual-knife youth, Chen Zhixing had never seen in the Chen Family.

However.

Chen Zhixing merely gave him a glance, withdrew his gaze, and felt little stirred in his heart.

To Chen Zhixing, they were merely a group of ’children’.

His vision had long surpassed this level.

"Third Young Master!"

"Third Young Master is here!"

"I heard just a few days ago; Third Young Master confronted a clan elder during an early education class, leaving that elder speechless."

"Well, that could only happen because he’s a direct descendant; if it were us from the collateral lines, we’d have faced severe punishment long ago!"

"I’ve heard that Third Young Master’s cultivation is only at the Nourishing Spirit Realm; if he doesn’t score well this time in the Southern Border, wouldn’t he shame the Chen Family’s direct line?"

"Hmph, Chen Zhixing is just relying on his birth; if any of us had his background, we’d definitely achieve greater heights than he ever could!"

"That’s right, if we had his resources, we’d have soared long ago!"

"Heavens really are unfair. We work hard yet are limited by our humble origins, having to fight for every resource. Meanwhile, someone like Chen Zhixing, who lazes about, has everything effortlessly fall into his lap!"

"Well, what can we do? He was just born lucky, with a good father!"

"Heh, once we reach the Southern Border, I’ll step all over Chen Zhixing and show our family elders that bloodline doesn’t determine everything!"

A series of whispers constantly echoed.

However.

When Chen Zhixing walked over.

The collateral and branch line members of the Chen Family could only lower their heads and respectfully greet him:

"Third Young Master."

"Greetings, Third Young Master."

"Third Young Master, please lead the way."

Chen Zhixing slightly nodded, not even bothering to look at them as he stepped to the front of the group.

At the forefront of the group, responsible for overseeing the Southern Border trial, the clan elders responded with smiles:

"Third Young Master."

Chen Zhixing smiled back at them.

The Chen Family was strictly hierarchical, with a natural distinction between direct and collateral lines.

Even among the branch line members, some might be stronger than Chen Zhixing, yet they had to pay their respects without the slightest disrespect.

That’s because Chen Zhixing bore the purest bloodline of the Ziwei Chen Family’s ancestor!

In contrast, many of these collateral relatives were either born of other family members or descended from the servants granted the surname Chen as a reward by the Chen Family Ancestor.

"Zhixing nephew."

A warm voice greeted Chen Zhixing.

It was the main figure overseeing the proceedings, Chen Tianchen, sitting in a large chair, greeting Chen Zhixing.

Beside him was a young girl wearing a half iron mask and two knives at her waist, smiling sweetly at Chen Zhixing.

"Uncle Tianchen, Ling’er."

Chen Zhixing kindly replied to his uncle and sister.

"Hey, is your father still refusing to come back, wandering off somewhere?" Chen Tianchen jokingly asked.

Chen Zhixing shrugged and replied, "Who knows? I guess my father and mother are off touring the mountains and rivers, utterly enchanted."

As they were conversing.

Suddenly, a respectful greeting erupted from the crowd.

In the bustling crowd, a path opened up voluntarily.

All the Chen family juniors lowered their heads and pressed their arms to their sides, exuding reverence.

And at the end of that road.

Chen Zhaosheng appeared, his expression calm, his black hair flowing as he walked with hands clasped behind his back.
