The liver is a late bloomer!

Xu Chen returned to the Dao Gate Domain.

Upon returning to their temple, they entered the Holy White Space.

A massive beam of light, large enough to cover the Nine Imperial Cities, appeared in the sky. Xu Chen turned his gaze to the order he would try next.

"Continue, the road ahead is long, but my path is immortal."

The forty-nine kinds of Great Dao power easily broke through the bottleneck and transformed into the sublimated Great Dao.

"The three paths of sublimation—water, thunder, and moon—are the main elements..."

Thirty million years have passed in a flash, yet only a tiny movement has been made of the stars surrounding the temple.

Inside the Holy White Space, Xu Chen calmly observed the order of the Ascension Path in the sky.

With his control, the order of all the paths to ascension changed to a new arrangement.

"We've finally reached the last step. The perfect body of the Great Dao will be able to be deduced by me in another 5000 million years."

With his mind returning to his body, Xu Chen walked out of the temple.

As the saying goes, the world changes.

But in the context of the Starry Sea, this dimension seems like just a butterfly flapping its wings.

"Nothing has changed."

Xu Chen's gaze turned to the Dao Gate Domain in the distance.

At that moment, a figure emerged from the void.

"Grandpa~" a clear voice rang out.

A man dressed in a traditional Chinese ink-wash robe emerged from the void and bowed to Xu Chen. He exuded the aura of a Saint Venerable Realm expert, and Xu Chen could sense a trace of threat within that aura.

This slight threat is equivalent to the other side using every means possible to kill him even if he doesn't make a move.

"Oh, it's Saint Shang!"

"Come here and let me take a look."

Upon seeing that it was his grandson, Xu Chen smiled slightly.

Xu Shengshang walked up to Xu Chen and looked at his legendary grandfather with admiration.

"Have you grasped the essence of time?" Xu Chen asked.

"I only grasped the basics. Sensing that Grandpa had emerged from seclusion, I hurriedly came to ask him for guidance," Xu Shengshang stated his purpose.

"Then you demonstrate first~"

As Xu Chen spoke, he gently extended a finger towards Sheng Shang, and a terrifying aura of death gathered within it, pointing towards Xu Sheng Shang.

"Grandpa, then I'll have to offend you!"

Time stops, or even flows backward.

If it were an ordinary Saint Venerable Realm expert, they would have been swept up in this power of time long ago.

But Xu Chen was different; his cultivation path was complex, and he easily broke through this power of time.

Seeing that his methods were ineffective, Xu Shengshang's expression became serious.

A powerful force of time began to reverse the flow of countless rivers within this small area.

Xu Chen slowly retracted the finger he had extended.

Just as that power of death was about to extinguish against the flow of time and space, at the level of cause and effect, that power of death entered Xu Shengshang's body along with the curse.

However, once this power of the death curse entered his body, it vanished without a trace.

The myriad rivers that had been reversed by the power of time collapsed, and the backlash caused Xu Shengshang to lose 30% of his original essence.

“Not bad~”

Xu Chen patted Xu Shengshang on the shoulder.

The 30% of lost primordial power was instantly restored.

"Follow me~"

Inside the temple, Xu Chen personally brewed a cup of tea for Xu Shengshang.

This scene was witnessed by Xu Xuanshen as he entered.

"You unfilial son, how dare you let your grandfather personally brew tea for you!" Xu Xuanshen roared in anger.

“I just received praise from Grandpa. This is a reward from him.” A hint of fear flashed across Xu Shengshang’s face, a result of the suppression from his bloodline.

"Look how capable you are, come over and have some tea."

Xu Daojing also entered the temple at that time.

"Father seems to be in a good mood."

Xu Chen made a cup of tea for each of the three people.

"I'm in a good mood because Saint Shang has grasped the Dao of Time. Although it's only a superficial understanding, he will surely be able to stand at the peak of the Invincible Saint Venerable Realm in the future, and have a slight chance to glimpse the realm above the Great Dao," Xu Chen said with satisfaction.

At this moment, several more lights appeared outside the temple, and Xu Xiyue, Su Yueyao, and others came over one after another.

"I was just thinking of going to find you all, but I didn't expect you to all come."

"Since we're in the temple, let's have a meal together as a family."

Xu Chen waved his hand, and several food boxes appeared in the main hall, transforming into a large spatial table with thousands of dishes laid out on it.

"Here, take this."

A time crystal the size of a pigeon's egg appeared in Xu Chen's hand.

"I don't have many of these myself, so please cherish them."

A unique power of the Great Dao of Time spread out, instantly attracting Xu Shengshang's attention.

“Treasures that are associated with time are at least of the highest quality.”

"Thank you, Grandpa!" Xu Shengshang gratefully accepted the time crystal.

After the family finished their meal together, Xu Chen told everyone the good news that he would be able to advance to the Saint Venerable level in just over 5000 million years, making the already joyful atmosphere even more enthusiastic.

Within the main territory of the human race, Xu Chen led his family on a stroll.

"During the years that Father has been in seclusion, His Majesty the Human Emperor has also advanced to the level of an invincible Saint Venerable. On your behalf, Da Xu has presented His Majesty the Human Emperor with a mid-grade innate treasure."

"Furthermore, within the human realm, it seems that Saint Venerable Mogu has also reached the peak of the Saint Venerable realm. With my father's Source Heart Dojo there, I believe it won't be long before he can advance to the Invincible Saint Venerable realm."

Xu Chen admired the scenery of the main lineage of the human race, while Xu Daojing talked about the events that had happened over the years.

"Not bad. With just one more invincible Saint Venerable Realm expert, we can catch up with the God Control Clan back then. I didn't expect all of this to happen so quickly."

As Xu Chen spoke, he flicked his finger and sent a newly acquired spiritual treasure flying into the earth below.

While exploring the main human lineage, Xu Chen would observe the fate lines of many humans below, and would offer small assistance to any promising members of the race.

At this moment, on the ground below the innate treasure flying boat, Fan You, who had just finished class, inexplicably felt something appearing in his body.

"Fan You, hurry home and enter the Dream Realm! Today, let's team up and kill the guards of that small world!!" A figure ran towards home, turning back to shout to Fan You.

"Okay~" Fan You walked home with a puzzled look in his eyes.

On the innate treasure flying boat, Xu Daojing also noticed this scene.

"Does Father think highly of this child?" Xu Daojing asked curiously.

"Without any external force, this child will only reach the Great Venerable realm in the future. Now, with just a little help, he can have hope of advancing to the Saint Venerable realm in the future."

"Offering a little help now will give humanity another Saint Venerable Realm expert in the future. It's a very worthwhile deal," Xu Chen explained.

"Did Father glimpse the future through the lens of fate?"

"That's understandable."

"What about my child's future? Will he be able to become a powerful figure on the Great Dao?" Xu Daojing asked excitedly. "I can't see through it. After reaching the Saint Venerable Realm, the price to pay for further glimpsing one's future destiny is quite high."

"As for whether you can become a powerful figure on the Great Dao, that depends on my future fortunes." Xu Chen smiled and flicked out another acquired spiritual treasure, which flew into the distance.

For a Grand Venerable who is infinitely close to the Saintly Venerable Realm, ten thousand years is just a blink of an eye.

Xu Chen returned to the temple that had stood in the Star Sea Domain for hundreds of millions of years and entered the Holy White Space.

"Only fifty million years, continue!"

Within the Holy White Space, Xu Chen once again began combining and arranging the forty-nine paths to sublimation.

Xu Chen originally wanted to fully control and construct the Great Dao Body before advancing to the Saint Venerable Realm, but during the second ten million years of seclusion, a disheveled figure flew out of the void and crashed into the temple.

Sensing this, Xu Chen's consciousness returned to his body, and he walked out of the main hall.

A pool of dark red blood clung to the main hall.

That pool of blood exuded a terrifying aura of cause and effect; anyone who touched it would provoke an indescribable being.

A life force condensed in the sea of ​​stars, transforming into a seed that fell into that pool of blood.

The seed blossomed, and that mass of blood condensed, transforming into the shape of a thousand lives.

At this moment, Qianming was in a terrible state, his eyes filled with fear, like a mortal who had been tortured for months.

"You've provoked another powerful figure on the Great Dao?" Sensing Qianming's aura, he couldn't help but ask.

"How could I dare to provoke him? It was just a moment of carelessness that allowed the powerful figure on the Great Dao whom I had offended before to sense it."

"He took the brain region from that Great Dao and then delivered a deadly blow to me."

"My cave dwelling, my Daoist partner, all my accumulations over the years are gone!"

"If I hadn't kept a backup plan, I wouldn't have made it to see you." Qianming was dejected, his eyes filled with fear and hatred.

"You won't drag me into this, will you?" Xu Chen frowned slightly.

"No, my innate divine power, which can only be used once, isn't that weak," Qianming hurriedly said.

"If you seek refuge, reincarnate into my human race; if not, follow me."

At this moment, a strange curse power was emanating from Qianming's body, constantly eroding his flesh and soul.

"My original soul is now almost entirely gone, and after being reborn into your human race, I will not be able to recover for a while."

"Please find me and help me advance to the Saint Venerable Realm."

As Qianming spoke, he mobilized his remaining essence and used his blood to condense a jade slip, which he then handed to Xu Chen.

"This jade slip contains information I have explored in your brain, all of which is extremely confidential. This is all that can help you now."

Looking at the blood jade slip floating in front of him, Xu Chen used his divine sense to scan a portion of its contents.

A look of shock flashed deep in Xu Chen's eyes as he silently accepted the blood jade slip.

“Alright, I will find your reincarnation and take him as my disciple. Even if his aptitude is not strong, I will still help him reach the Saint Venerable Realm,” Xu Chen promised.

"Then I'll go!"

As he spoke, Qianming transformed into a streak of blood-red light and flew towards the distant Dao Gate Domain.

"I even wiped your bottom clean, but I didn't expect there would still be some sticky residue."

Xu Chen took a step forward and arrived at the Dao Gate Domain through the void.

In Dao City, Xu Chen, disguised as an ordinary human, arrived at the most luxurious hotel.

The table was laden with ten thousand dishes, all of which were new creations that had emerged during Xu Chen's seclusion.

Xu Chen slowly savored the dishes, while also sensing the aura of Qianming.

At this moment, Qianming had transformed into a vague, chaotic state, like a soul awaiting reincarnation.

As the Human Race's Lesser Heavenly Dao operated, a suction force drew the origin and cause of Thousand Life into a luxurious mansion cave.

"I'm lucky; I've been reborn into a great family of high-ranking officials!"

Xu Chen silently savored the dishes, waiting for Qianming's reincarnation to be born.

Three years later, just as Xu Chen and Su Yueyao were strolling along a luxurious street, Qianming's reincarnation was born.

"Let's go and see my disciple."

Xu Chen led Su Yueyao to the outside of a luxurious gate.

The head of the Shi family, who had received the news early on, waited outside the door.

When Xu Chen left, he had already informed the Shi family head through the Little Heavenly Path that he had no interest in playing the game of hiding one's identity and then showing off and getting slapped in the face.

"It is an honor for our family to have such a distinguished presence here." The head of the Shi family and his family members knelt down and bowed deeply to Xu Chen with great excitement.

Almost all the powerful figures who grew up in the later stages of the human race had cultivated in the Origin Heart Dojo.

It can be said that without Xu Chen's Origin Heart Dojo, 80% of the strong individuals who grew up later would not have been able to break through to their current level.

A gentle force lifted everyone up.

“If a newborn child is destined to be with me, I will accept him as my disciple.”

"Let him grow up by his mother's side for 30 years, and then I will send someone to pick him up," Xu Chen said gently.

"The Shi family will obey Xu Sheng's orders!"

Under the guidance of the Shi family patriarch, Xu Chen saw Qianming's reincarnation.

The baby, who looked like a doll from a traditional Chinese New Year painting, smiled happily when he saw Xu Chen.

After reading it, Xu Chen took Su Yueyao away. Before leaving, he bestowed nine innate spiritual treasures upon the Shi family.

"Husband, once Qianming's reincarnation grows up, will she leave the human race?" Su Yueyao asked.

“If he doesn’t leave, I will find a way to make him leave.”

“He’s too much of a troublemaker; it’s not safe for him to stay in human territory.” Xu Chen said, recounting Qianmian’s past misdeeds, which made Su Yueyao frown.

"Given my husband's personality, Qianming shouldn't have survived until now."

Su Yueyao understood Xu Chen; he was extremely ruthless in his methods towards the alien races.

"That's right, you can tell right away."

"This old guy has a lot of secrets to hide, so there are some benefits to cooperating with him."

"Take the Human Race's Origin Heart Dojo, for example. Without Qianming's innate great divine power, it would be impossible to establish it."

"I see." Su Yueyao nodded.

The couple traveled around the main territory of the human race for another 30 years when a young man found Xu Chen.

"Disciple greets Master!" Shi Qianming looked at Xu Chen with fervent admiration.

"Get up~"

Xu Chen nodded as he sensed the cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities that Shi Qianming was practicing; they were all among the most advanced cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities of the human race.

"With his Saint-grade aptitude, he has ignited the Lamp of Qi and Blood, and his soul power is vigorous. When he embarks on the path of immortality, he should be able to ignite the Lamp of Soul."

"That's right. If you don't understand anything about cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities, go to the Dream Realm to ask your teacher."

"When you advance to the Golden Immortal Grand Luo realm and forge your own path, feel free to ask me anything you don't understand."

A spatial innate spiritual treasure floated in front of Shi Qianming.

"There are all kinds of resources inside, enough for you to cultivate to the Golden Immortal or Great Luo realm."

Xu Chen adopted a hands-off approach to this disciple, but it wasn't entirely laissez-faire.

Xu Chen's dream-path avatar transformed into a seed and entered Shi Qianming's body. It would appear to explain things to him when he encountered obstacles in his path. (End of Chapter)
