A moment passed.
Just as the White Flood Dragon wondered if Chen Zhixing had fallen asleep and was about to sneak a peek, a sound suddenly reached her ears.
"Winged Fire Serpent, Horned Wood Jiao, Kang Jinlong, which position do you fancy?"
The White Flood Dragon was struck dumb.
...
The Ziwei Chen Family has its foundation.
If Chen Zhixing wishes to change his path, then the Great Demons left by the Chen Family Ancestor are a solid base, perfectly aligning with the positions of the 28 Constellations for Longevity, allowing Chen Zhixing to stabilize his basic holdings at the fastest speed!
And this was precisely the path initially designed by Ancestor Chen Changfeng, one of the reasons for Ziwei's ability to tame demons.
Using Ziwei to govern the Star Formations, 108 positions were set, each corresponding to a Golden Nature Great Longevity!
With enough positions, naturally, many Longevity True Monarchs are attracted, and when the Emperor Ziwei of the Six Realms Celestial Stars emerges, it is an excellent opportunity for the Chen Family to transform from a Noble Family into a Holy Land.
Moreover, because this is a newly developed opportunity, the Ziwei Chen Family will not be opposed by the Three Great Sacred Lands; instead, it will be supported by the other three sides, as these positions can also be offered to cultivators from the Three Great Sacred Lands.
From this point, it's clear that Ancestor Chen Changfeng was truly thinking about future generations, paving an almost perfect path for Longevity for them.
And unsurprisingly, the Three Great Sacred Lands are also aware of this path.
This has forged the nearly unbreakable relationship between the Ziwei Chen Family and the Celestial Saint Palace, and despite several upheavals over millennia, the Ziwei Chen Family has never been completely extinguished for this karmic reason.
As for why the Three Great Sacred Lands didn't replace the Ziwei Chen Family?
The Three Great Sacred Lands have their own foundations; the Star Monarch Tao of the Ziwei Chen Family does not conflict with them. With this basis, the Chen Family opened up a new path as their kin and wished to share it with the Three Great Sacred Lands. Would you really have the mindset to replace him with another unknown cousin?
Therefore, after the Celestial Saint Palace received the 'All Heavens Starry Dharma Aspect Atlas' handwritten by Chen Zhixing, the Holy Master himself unusually left seclusion.
After consulting with many elders of the Celestial Saint Palace for three days, they finally issued a reply, personally delivered to Ziwei Mountain by True Monarch Tihu.
...
A month later.
The Ziwei Chen Family published a miscellaneous book entitled "Ziwei Star Fighting Form Atlas."
Within it, detailed illustrations, attributes, mana affinities, etc., for many constellations like Ziwei Star, Taiwei Star, Celestial Market Star were meticulously recorded.
The Three Permanents, Four Symbols, 28 Constellations were all included!
The world was abuzz.
Insiders know this is the Chaos Body Chen Zhixing's way of expressing his stance. He will not choose to rebuild the Immortal Imperial Court but instead create a new path from the road established by the Chen Family's Ancestor.
The Star Monarch Tao!
Almost immediately following the book's release, Noble Families from all over East Continent flocked to Ziwei Mountain, seeking the Longevity Tao Skill of the Star Monarch Tao.
For a time, Ziwei Mountain was bustling like a marketplace; any known and notable force from East Continent had a representative there.
It was just regretful.
The Chen Family only provided the conditions to become a Star Monarch, essentially the requirements to become one, but did not offer the method for cultivating to Star Monarch.
This frustrated many cultivators, yet they were powerless, only able to try various means to connect with Chen Family members, hoping to obtain the method of cultivating into a Star Monarch from them.
But the result was disappointing.
Even the Chen Family had no cultivation method!
Chen Zhixing simply presented a 'True Monarch Path' without providing specific cultivation conditions, not even the Family Head, Chen Tianchen, knew how to cultivate this Star Monarch Tao!
This result led those with high expectations to curse continuously.
Saying the Ziwei Chen Family handled things unfairly.
Upon learning of this, Chen Zhixing only smiled.
In the long pavilion.
Chen Zhixing brewed chrysanthemum tea, speaking leisurely to Elder Mo Qingyue and Chen Zhaosheng of the Celestial Saint Palace:
"Everyone's coming to me for a cultivation technique, but regarding the Star Monarch matter, I acted on a whim; where am I supposed to create a cultivation technique for them?"
"Then why did you release the 'Ziwei Star Fighting Form Atlas'? You know there are hundreds of Longevity True Monarch positions in there; who wouldn't seek you out upon learning of it?" Chen Zhaosheng chimed in, his expression warm yet slightly annoyed.
Originally, after understanding True Monarch Yimiao's descent south, Fourth Uncle Chen Tianchen intended to cede his position to him, allowing him to inherit the Patriarch position of the Chen Family. But with Chen Zhixing causing such a major affair, he temporarily couldn't become the Family Head.
Aside from this, upon discovering the Star Monarch Tao, shouldn't you prioritize your own family? Why reveal the information so quickly? Aren't you afraid others will seize the positions you intended to occupy?
At this moment, Mo Qingyue suddenly spoke:
"It was Master Tihu who advised him to release it."
"What do you mean?" Chen Zhaosheng frowned upon hearing.
Mo Qingyue observed and chuckled lightly: "What do you think it means? By releasing the information, the intent is to prevent your Chen Family from monopolizing the Star Monarch Tao, preventing the Chen Family from growing too large and becoming the next Immortal Imperial Court."
"Immortal Imperial Court... Elder Mo, what are you saying? This Star Monarch Tao..."
Halfway through his words, Chen Zhaosheng glanced at Chen Zhixing brewing tea and then shut his mouth.
Essentially speaking, is there any difference between the Star Monarch Tao and the Immortal Imperial Court?
Yes.
But not much!
Although the All Heavens Starry Constellations bear the Star Monarch title, in terms of power supremacy, the Emperor Ziwei of the North Dipper of the Six Realms Celestial Stars remains sovereign. If it were not approached this way, then Chen Zhixing invoking the Emperor Ziwei title to conduct Immortal Emperor acts would indeed be unstoppable.
If the Chen Family claimed most of the Star Monarch positions, given the nature of Noble Families... producing something akin to an Immortal Emperor Venerable to a Great Celestial Venerable would be an inevitable occurrence!
By releasing the information and publicizing the Star Monarch Atlas, Chen Zhixing was expressing his stance, severing the hope of the Ziwei Chen Family forming its own lineage, ultimately developing a Chen Family 'Star Court.'
After releasing the information, more people would start to ponder, cultivate towards the Star Monarch method, and in the shortest time frame, underpin and amplify this new path.
Could this be considered betrayal?
Not at all.
Because this was something the Chen Family originally couldn't stomach!
Since they couldn't handle it and had already maximized the timing and location advantage, why hide it? They're better off revealing it for others to see!
Wanting to cultivate into a Star Monarch isn't that easy!
Without the Chen Family's permission, without Chen Zhixing as the Taoist Lord's nod, who could accomplish it in a short time?
By proceeding this way, Chen Zhixing fostered an even closer relationship with the Celestial Saint Palace, hence Mo Qingyue's presence here.
Under Chen Zhaosheng's watch, Mo Qingyue spoke calmly:
"According to the Holy Master's decree, in the next thousand years, the Celestial Saint Palace will strive to foster the emergence of new Star Monarchs. Meanwhile, a college named 'Star Palace' will be jointly established by your Chen Family and the Celestial Saint Palace. Every ten years, Star Palace will recruit 1,200 disciples from all over East Continent, with 300 Holy Disciples among them, while the remainder being freely distributed by your Chen Family."
Supporting the Chen Family for a millennium!
Is this an intention to turn the Ziwei Chen Family into a new Holy Land?!
Chen Zhaosheng suddenly stood up, his aura continuously cycling through the four seasons, his gaze fixed on Mo Qingyue.
"Elder, is this true!"
"Of course, it's true. This decree was issued after consultations among the many Longevity True Monarchs within the Celestial Saint Palace. Otherwise, as a mere Flying Immortal Palace elder, how could I dare utter such words?"
As Mo Qingyue spoke, her smile grew more radiant.
She was genuinely pleased.
Because the emergence of Star Palace signifies not only an added choice in her Longevity path but also a high probability of success for an entire heavenly road.
