Chapter 538: Time Will Cut All Shackles, The Target of Zhi

Faced with Potato’s words, Chen Changsheng nodded and said.

“No problem, I will remember this. From now on, this is my home, Chen Changsheng.”

“I have two beautiful wives and three sensible sons.”

“When are you leaving?”

“In about a thousand years, Ziyan and the others still lack a bit of timing; there are still some loose ends in this Crimson Realm.”

“Once everything is complete, I will take my leave.”

Hearing this, Potato pondered and replied, “Are they really that important?”

“It’s not just that they’re important; it’s that all of you are important.”

“Emperor Huangtian and the others are waging wars outside, and they haven’t descended in their true forms despite all the major events that have happened here. This indicates that the situation outside is very severe.”

“I need to go out and take a look; otherwise, the flames of war from outside will come back one day, sooner or later.”

After saying that, Chen Changsheng released Potato, then stood up and looked into the distance, speaking.

“My path is long and without end. This departure may very well be our last meeting.”

Upon hearing this, Potato smiled slightly and said, “So what? As you said, some things always require someone to do them.”

“I asked Zhi Ze about your past.”

“If there’s anyone in this world who knows all your past, it can only be Zhi Ze.”

“Only it can understand the pain in your heart.”

Once these words were spoken, Chen Changsheng smiled.

“Zhi Ze’s words are still so unreliable. What did it say to you?”

“It told me about the women you encountered.”

“A-Man is your fervent love; Wanyan Yue is your indelible confidante; Niansheng is the eternal moonlight in your heart.”

Upon receiving this answer, Chen Changsheng’s gaze dimmed a little, then he spoke.

“Then what is your position in my heart?”

Facing this question, Potato smiled and shook her head, saying, “You naturally know the position we hold in your heart.”

“Since you already know the answer, why ask me?”

“I’ll head back first; Chen Xiang is a bit mischievous, and I have to remind him of some things.”

After saying that, Potato turned and left.

Watching Potato’s silhouette, Chen Changsheng fell into long silence.

The companionship of Potato and Wanyan was simple and peaceful; their feelings were not that kind of passionate, everlasting love.

Their feelings for him were more like that of a gentle and virtuous wife.

This relationship, seemingly soft and weak, was the most difficult to abandon.

If it were the old Chen Changsheng, he might very well have stayed and spent this long time with them.

Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng spoke, “System, do you think I am being a bit heartless in doing this?”

In response to Chen Changsheng’s inquiry, the system’s electronic voice rang out.

“Replying to the host, from data analysis, your current actions are correct. Congratulations.”

“What’s there to congratulate? The shackles on me have only increased.”

“Time will unravel some shackles. One day, the host will return to being that solitary host.”

Once these words were spoken, Chen Changsheng couldn’t help but clench his fists and replied.

“That won’t happen; I will not abandon the shackles on me.”

“The host is mistaken; the shackles will not be abandoned, only severed.”

“Time is the sharpest tool for severing shackles. Those living beings who first accompanied you are nearing the end of their lives.”

“If it weren’t for this, the host would likely not temporarily leave this world.”

Hearing the system’s words, Chen Changsheng fell silent.

The next sleep time was about to arrive. Since coming to this world, he had only slept not even ten times.

But in just those few sleeps, tens of thousands of years had unknowingly passed.

This time was merely a drop in the ocean for the path of longevity.

His time was still long, but the time for Wu Li and the others was running short!

Wu Li and the others were stunning prodigies, their power and talent were enough to make future generations bow their heads for hundreds of thousands of years.

Even if they were extraordinarily powerful, their lifespans would eventually reach an end one day.

If they were willing to survive like those beings in the Forbidden Ground, they might still have a few hundred thousand years, or several hundred thousand years.

However, it was evident that they were unwilling to do so.

Not willing to cut themselves, not willing to exist like those in the Forbidden Ground means their lifespans would likely not exceed a hundred thousand years.

Counting the years they had already lived, they had at most a hundred thousand years left.

A hundred thousand years may seem long, but how many of his sleeps can it withstand?

Thinking this, Chen Changsheng spoke, “System, is there really no method for longevity in this world?”

“Replying to the host, true longevity has never existed, just as nothing can ever be eternal.”

“Then I cannot achieve longevity?”

“Theoretically, the host can achieve longevity, but I cannot guarantee that the host won’t be killed, nor can I guarantee that the host will never commit s*icide.”

“According to data analysis, the host’s departure this time should be to seek out methods to extend lifespan in a wider world.”

“The method of Bloodline Longevity, the method of Puppet Longevity, these things are not suitable for those around the host.”

After hearing the system’s words, Chen Changsheng smiled and said.

“You understand me the best, so do you think my goal this time will be successful?”

“Based on the host’s strength, you will definitely not succeed. But if you add in long time, you will definitely succeed.”

“However, whether the host can succeed before those living beings d*e depends on the host’s speed.”

“Hahaha!”

“System, your words are still so sharp.”

“Since that’s the case, then let me race against time and see who can run faster.”

…

As time passed, the Eight Desolates and Nine Domains were rapidly developing.

Countless heavenly prodigies began to emerge, and numerous love and hate dramas unfolded in this world.

Regardless of how the world changed, a small courtyard in the corner of Dragon Tiger Mountain remained the same.

Eighty years passed, and an old friend arrived at the small courtyard.

Seeing the figure outside the door, Chen Changsheng, who was planting vegetables, smiled and said, “How does it feel to be one with nature?”

“The harvest is quite substantial.”

“So what are your plans next?”

“To take a good look at this world, then venture out with you into the outside world.”

“Hahaha!”

“This outside world is quite complex; why not stay in this world and control everything?”

Upon hearing this, Huafeng smiled and shook her head, saying, “Please don’t laugh at me, today I finally understand that the Heavenly Mandate Holder is just a slightly better Cultivator.”

“In the face of the grand trends of the world, my ability to play a part is minuscule.”

“No wonder those in the Forbidden Ground always look down on all strong beings; because in this long time, the strong are just slightly larger ants.”
