Chapter 114

Chen Zheng walked through the night sky.

At the same time, he used the battle-obtained killing qi from the eighteen gourds he had previously acquired, condensing battle soul relics in his mind.

One after another, the killing qi inside the gourds was completely drawn out by him.

In an instant, seventy-two small battle soul relics condensed into form, representing the earthly sha.

Subsequently, thirty-six large battle soul relics successfully condensed, representing the heavenly gang.

Each one sparkled, filled with gang-sha qi.

Chen Zheng immediately followed the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha formation diagram, forming a star array in his mind, sensing the thirty-six heavenly gang stars and seventy-two earthly sha stars in the extraterritorial starry sky.

The most crucial step in opening up the "Second Mind Sea" is heaven-human induction, relying on the vast power of the stars to let a person and the battle soul relics coordinate.

"When will I be able to achieve longevity?"

At one, one look`'

He is also a heaven-human realm cultivator, able to communicate with stars and plants, his strength comparable to the eighth level of divine ability, and heaven-human induction is no problem for him.

Chen Fu seemed to have become the new head of the Chen family, sitting upright in the position only the family head could occupy.

This childhood friend of Chen Fu, the person who gave him the first batch of resources, would naturally not be forgotten; he would certainly give the other party an immortal affinity.

Worth mentioning are Chen Fu's steward Liu Shu, Li Qiu and Li Rong, the siblings who hunted monsters together with Chen Zheng on Forty-Nine Island, and Xu Guanshi, who registered Chen Zheng when he signed up as a monster hunter, all of whom are also present.

Next, an extraordinary space within his mind was gradually opened.

Inside the conference hall.

He still felt for the first time the vastness of the starry sky, the boundlessness of the universe, and suddenly felt himself utterly insignificant, like a mayfly adrift in the vast heavens and earth, a speck in the sea.

"Just bring Chen Fu, Li Qiu, Li Rong, Xu Guanshi, and Liu Fu."

Most small stars are fine, but those great stars that have existed since ancient times emit endless light and heat; a slight mental approach brings a feeling of suffocation.

Even those with slightly inferior talent cannot, in their entire lives, develop a resonance with stellar power.

Moreover, after we go to the Feather Ascension Sect to cultivate immortality and become immortals, we can also help Chen Zheng attain a higher position within the Feather Ascension Sect.

He has bestowed favors on many people, changing their fates because of him; even the Gold Stone Terrace could be made his dog.

Chen Xingye and Chen Lie, father and son, were not as flustered as other Chen family elders; their eyes showed little surprise, as if they had long expected that Chen Zheng would not take them to the Feather Ascension Sect to cultivate immortality.

Chen Zheng silently descended onto Gold Feather Island.

The Family Head Manor was brightly lit.

"Unless one cultivates to the Immortal Secret Realm, magical power can only barely compare to the smallest stars."

He landed directly at the entrance of the mansion's conference hall.

Soon, in his spiritual perception, the boundless void of space stretched infinitely, with countless stars beyond measurement.

Chen Zheng, immersively sensing the starry sky, quickly "saw" 108 strange stars deep within it, establishing a connection with his own thoughts.

Chen Zheng waved his hand, then patted the bewildered Chen Fu's shoulder who had come before him, and said to Liu Suiyun, "Since Brother Liu is here, do me a favor and bring some people back to the Feather Ascension Gate."

The elder turned out to be Liu Suiyun, the former owner of the Treasure Gathering Tower who had once partied with Chen Zheng, and he had unexpectedly arrived at the Chen family.

Because in his divine mind perception, Chen Fu was right here. Moreover, he also saw a few old acquaintances.

However, after undergoing the Nether King True Body transformation, Chen Zheng's talent and comprehension were truly one in a hundred million.

They, like the rest of the Chen family members, buried their heads deep, stuck their butts up high, and dared not even take a breath.

Chen Zheng's initial ground.

Chen Zheng sighed lightly.

How could that be?

Many Chen family members' minds became lively.

After Chen Zheng finished his sentence, he vanished inside the hall, leaving only a few people whose names he had mentioned, ecstatic, and many senior Chen family members looking as if struck by lightning, their faces full of disbelief.

This magical power source is not needed for now.

"Human lifespan is far too short and insignificant; even if one cultivates to the Divine Art Tenfold, it is hard to stand shoulder‑to‑shoulder with the sun, moon, and stars."

After all, one fence needs three posts, one hero needs three allies; Chen Zheng fighting alone, how could he be stronger without kin support? "Brother Zheng!"

He devoted his whole being, letting his massive spirit radiate outward, rising into the dim starry sky, his soul wandering the heavens and earth.

On the seats to the left and right below, senior family members sat, appearing to discuss something important.

When Chen Zheng's magical power reaches hundreds of millions of horses, even tens of billions, it will be of great use.

Chen Zheng's smile, as gentle as ever, stepped into the conference hall, flicked his sleeve to release a surge of magical power, lifting the elder up.

Chen Zheng would rather take outsiders than his own kin?

The commotion of Chen Zheng landing at the hall's entrance startled an elder standing behind Chen Fu.

The elder quickly looked outward; when he saw Chen Zheng's face clearly, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, hurriedly kneeling and making a grand bow: "Young Master Chen Zheng, you have returned!"

"I, a humble servant, salute the immortal!"

The island is much the same as when he left.

"Brother Liu, I hope you are well."

At the same time, a ten‑thousand‑zhang heroic spirit rose in his heart.

This is a fixed star, capable of easily destroying low‑level Immortal cultivators.

Obviously, Chen Zheng is now soaring, ready to lift them up.

The second magical power source is ready.

Boom!

From numerous stars, 108 thread‑like rays fell, shooting into his mind and merging with 108 battle‑soul relics as one.

"Who?"

Unfortunately, Chen Zheng's subsequent words made many clueless Chen family members' hearts sink to the bottom of a valley.

"Chen Zheng wants to take us to cultivate!"

Now that Chen Zheng has returned, the mission assigned to him is, of course, eagerly awaited.

When they left the Linglong Blessed Land, he had already intended to take Chen Fu with him, but upon hearing that Fang Qingxue was injured, he could not attend to it for a moment.

In the other seats, the former Family Head Chen Xingye, the eldest son Chen Lie and other high‑ranking members all knelt down one by one.

At this moment, Chen Zheng himself arrived in the southern sea region of the Great Northern Ocean; the location was not Shadow Island but Jin Jin Yu Dao Dao, where the Chen family resides.

This process is not easy; for ordinary people it takes at least three to five days, and sometimes dozens of days.

"No need for formalities."

It is now night‑time hour of the Dog, and there is still time before tomorrow's gathering at Shadow Island, so he simply returns to the Chen family and brings Chen Fu back to the Feather Ascension Gate.

As for himself and the others, their blood is thicker than water with Chen Zheng, and Chen Zheng will not forget old feelings.

Possessing a True Demon, an unbreakable body that endures ten thousand eons, one only needs to cultivate step by step; even if the heavens and earth are vast and the universe immense, what does it matter? One day he will stand on the ultimate peak and view all mountains as small.

Liu Suiyun felt a surge of joy in his heart and promptly bowed respectfully, "May I ask, young master, whom shall I bring?"

Chen Fu was overjoyed; his body, weighing more than three hundred jin, moved with unbelievable agility, suddenly springing up from his seat and lunging in a swift step toward Chen Zheng.

The reason he appears at the Chen family is to protect Chen Zheng's clan, hoping to cling to Chen Zheng's leg.

They had all heard Liu Suiyun say that Chen Zheng is now an authentic disciple of the Feather Ascension Gate, truly a celestial being.

Yet the father and son felt complicated emotions; they exchanged a glance, both sighing with a bitter smile.

Cultivation—have they never wanted it? Unfortunately, the father and son were neither helpers when Chen Zheng was weak nor friends with him; based on that pitiful blood tie, they have no right to ascend with him.

Soon, Chen Xingye's face also broke into ecstatic joy, for a rainbow light had appeared in his hand at an unknown moment, glittering—it was clearly a Spirit Artifact! "Thank you, Immortal, for the gift!"

Tears streaming, he dragged Chen Lie out of the hall, repeatedly kowtowing.
