Wang Lin knew he wasn't a genius, at least compared to his junior brother Shi Hao, he was completely on a different level.

It's like this time when Chen Zhixing explained the Nirvana Tao to the two brothers, phrases like 'seek the Great Tao,' 'there are people within the Tao,' 'beware of Celestial Punishment,' 'do not overly rely on the Power of the Great Tao,' 'what is suitable for you is sometimes not the best,' he could individually understand them without issue, but when these are combined and integrated into one thing, Wang Lin could only say he had a partial understanding.

To sum it up, Master was saying that the Nirvana Realm allows for blood rebirth, but don't overly depend on this ability, because the reason the Nirvana Realm can achieve blood rebirth is that part of their existence is attached to the Great Tao, and within the Great Tao they are attached to, there may be 'people,' so Master wants them to be cautious of those 'people within the Tao.'

Did you understand?

If it's the literal meaning, Wang Lin felt he understood, but the deeper meaning, Wang Lin could not comprehend.

On the contrary, his junior brother Shi Hao showed a thoughtful expression halfway through listening, and received a glance of praise from Master.

'Is this the gap between my talent and my junior brother's?'

After exiting the Ziwei Heng Palace, Wang Lin looked at his junior brother still immersed in realization, wanting to speak but hesitating multiple times.

He wanted to ask Shi Hao what he had realized, but couldn't bring himself to open his mouth.

After all, Shi Hao was his junior brother, and he was the senior brother, how could a senior brother go ask a junior brother for advice?

Wang Lin couldn't swallow his pride.

However, Shi Hao, who had come back to his senses, seemed to notice his state, and instead explained with a smile.

"Senior brother, you didn't understand just now, did you?"

Wang Lin: "..."

This was not very friendly!

Seeing his silence, Shi Hao grinned and said, "Master was telling us, if possible, not to use the blood rebirth ability in the Nirvana Realm. It seems he has detected some rules about the Nirvana Realm. Apparently, if we don't use blood rebirth, we could gain great benefits in the future, while those who use it a lot might experience unfavorable occurrences. So senior brother, you need to be careful too."

"Is this what Master meant?" Wang Lin asked doubtfully, "Then why doesn't Master tell us directly?"

"Not saying directly... Maybe it's because Master can't be sure, and it's not something we can control. You see, if we encounter an enemy in the future, and they beat us until there's only one drop of blood left, how could we not use it?"

Shi Hao spoke nonchalantly, appearing to understand Chen Zhixing's words but did not intend to truly abide by them.

Wang Lin remained silent.

Indeed, things were just as his junior brother said; if the situation really required them to use the blood rebirth ability, how could they not use it?

But speaking of which, what exactly did Master discover to use so many uncertain words like 'perhaps' and 'maybe'?

Also.

If there really are people within the Great Tao, in what form do these 'people' exist?

This is something Wang Lin was truly curious about.

...

If there are people within the Great Tao, what form do they exist in?

Or rather, do 'they' still count as people?

Inside Ziwei Heng.

Standing at the door, Chen Zhixing indifferently watched the figures of his two disciples leaving, like this for a long time, until they walked towards Ziwei Mountain Main Peak, before slowly withdrawing his gaze from them.

A sword light flickered unpredictably beside him.

A faint tone echoed in his ear.

"Chen Zhixing, is it really appropriate to tell your disciples this information so early?"

"There's nothing inappropriate."

A hand was placed on the hilt of the Cyan Pheasant Sword.

The Cyan Pheasant Sword struggled slightly.

A moment later, with the struggle ineffectual, a bright light emerged from the Cyan Pheasant Sword, followed by a phantom figure stepping out from the sword.

Though the figure was phantom-like, it had a pair of bright eyes.

At this moment, those beautiful eyes were gazing at Chen Zhixing, who was holding the sword.

"You are truly an exceptional genius, no less than the Emperor Venerable of the past."

"Hm."

"Even someone like you, afraid of being harmed by my Golden Nature? You must know, the Emperor Venerable, who was also a Chaos Body like you, once opened his heart, released countless Golden Natures from the Great Tao, and gained such powerful strength."

"So he died, and after dying was consumed by others."

"..." The phantom figure fell silent for a moment, seeming not to have expected Chen Zhixing to say such a thing.

For such a genius to fear the Golden Nature, how... ridiculous.

Yet even so, can the opponent truly resist the temptation of the Golden Nature?

After the silence, the phantom figure spoke again: "You must have already realized the essence of the so-called Longevity Realm. If you don't walk this path, don't compete with us, how can you prove the Longevity Tao?"

"There's always a way, and if worse comes to worst, I won't walk your path." Chen Zhixing's expression was indifferent, as if he truly had the courage to abandon his cultivation and start over.

The figure was left speechless.

With eyes looking at Chen Zhixing, they appeared somewhat dazed, as if seeing the shadow of their former self in him.

Back then, she was equally talented, equally peerless.

Moments later, the phantom figure shook its head.

"It's useless; the Great Tao in the Celestial Profound Realm has only one path. Unless you want to be confined like those outsiders, or you plan to give up the Longevity Tao Fruit, otherwise you will inevitably embark on the same path as us."
