Chapter 68: Unexpected Changes, Chen Changsheng’s “Egg Soaking” Life
Facing the system’s words, Chen Changsheng was full of question marks.
But Chen Changsheng still honestly began to restore his cultivation.
After one hour.
“Cough, cough, cough!”
Chen Changsheng, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly started coughing violently.
His cultivation had also stalled at the early stage of the Transformation of Spirit phase.
Chen Changsheng: ????
In the face of this situation, Chen Changsheng was completely stunned.
If he remembered correctly, before he fell asleep, he had already reached the late stage of the Transformation of Spirit phase.
But when he was restoring his cultivation just now, he felt an enormous resistance.
Although the accumulation of spiritual strength had reached its original level, the realm refused to advance no matter what.
This feeling, if described specifically, seemed as if the heavens did not allow his existence.
After some thought, Chen Changsheng suddenly had a possible idea.
“System, are the rules of heaven and earth about to change?”
“The Host’s guess is entirely correct. Cultivation is similar to the growth of plants.”
“Plants can only grow in suitable environments.”
“When the environment changes, another type of plant will replace the original one.”
“You can also understand that the current cultivation system has become outdated.”
Upon hearing the system’s words, a glimmer appeared in Chen Changsheng’s eyes.
Because the current cultivation system was not very suitable for him; his spirit root was an artificial spirit root.
Although theoretically, there is no difference between artificial and natural spirit roots, there are subtle differences.
This was also why he had never been able to reach the Void Refinement realm.
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng said, “System, if the situation is as you say, then the changes in the rules of heaven and earth are happening too quickly.”
“How many years have I lived!”
“The rules of heaven and earth are starting to change.”
“Host, why do you think the changes in the rules of heaven and earth are so fast?”
“You haven’t been here for long. Do you know how many years this cultivation system has lasted?”
“The reason you didn’t notice the changes in the rules of heaven and earth is because you’ve been accustomed to this situation since you arrived.”
“If you had arrived in this world ten thousand years earlier, or even longer, would you still have this doubt?”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng was stunned.
He realized that his understanding was still too limited.
In his original world, there was a strange book called the “Classic of Mountains and Seas.”
It recorded all sorts of bizarre creatures, but everyone believed that the records were mere fantasies of ancient people.
But if we extend the timeline, would people thousands or millions of years later also consider these records as ancient fantasies?
For example, parrots, which Chen Changsheng considered a familiar bird species.
Not saying they were everywhere, at least they were well-known.
But after tens of millions of years, parrots might become extinct. When future generations read descriptions of parrots from ancient texts, what would their reaction be?
“There is a bird, with five-colored feathers, two feet, a sharp beak, and capable of speaking human words. Its name is parrot.”
Facing this description, those future generations would probably laugh it off and praise the ancients’ imagination.
After all, how could birds talk?
This must be a fabrication by the ancients.
Similarly, the current cultivation system is like this.
Chen Changsheng had many techniques in his mind, and many of them described the power after reaching the peak.

The techniques Chen Changsheng had practiced to perfection did not manifest the power described in the texts.
Chen Changsheng did not find this strange.
He thought that the pioneers who created these techniques had exaggerated them.
Now it seems that these techniques might indeed have such power.
Only the rules of heaven and earth today are different from those in the past.
Chen Changsheng’s subconscious belief stems entirely from his familiarity with the current environment.
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng asked, “System, if there is a new cultivation system being born.”
“What is the source of this cultivation system?”
“Is it directly stipulated by the Heavenly Path, or is there another source?”
“To the host, specific cultivation systems are not interfered with by the Heavenly Path. The Heavenly Path only creates an environment.”
“The specific cultivation system is created by spirits. Whoever creates the most suitable cultivation system for this environment will become the master of this era.”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng almost drooled.
“System, according to you, can I do it too?”
“Theoretically, this method is feasible.”
Receiving the system’s affirmative response, Chen Changsheng immediately laughed heartily, “Truly heaven aids me!”
“With such a great opportunity, I, Chen Changsheng, will definitely seclude myself for a thousand or eight hundred years.”
System: ???
Did I hear wrong?
“Host, according to analysis, the success rate of creating techniques that fit the era through closed-door research is not high.”
“Only by forging a path through the golden age can you have a chance to create techniques that fit the era.”
“System, don’t joke. Do you think I look like someone who fights?”
“I’ll just watch the golden age. I want to be a witness to the golden age, not a creator.”
“Wait until the next era’s master appears, I’ll go and get acquainted with him first.”
“After I outlive him, I’ll be friends with the era’s master. What a prestigious position that would be!”
System: “…”
Faced with Chen Changsheng’s thoughts, the system was silent.
As for what the system was thinking, no one knew.
However, compared to the system’s silence, Chen Changsheng was much more excited.
Because he was observing the terrain, preparing to set up an unparalleled grand formation to incubate the egg.
Chen Changsheng had already refined the Sky-Replenishing Ointment, and if it weren’t for the ointment to sustain A-Man’s life, she might not have made it to the end.
With everything else settled, Chen Changsheng naturally prepared to start incubating the egg.
Although he wasn’t sure if it would work, it was still a way to pass the time.
…..
A radius of five hundred li was filled with array patterns.
When engraving this grand formation, Chen Changsheng used all his accumulated knowledge.
In addition, he also engraved the Dao Patterns he learned from the Ancient Forbidden Ground within it.
Once everything was arranged, Chen Changsheng placed the dead egg at the center of the formation.
The grand formation activated, and the essence of heaven, earth, sun, and moon slowly converged, nurturing the long-dead egg.
Watching the operation of the grand formation, Chen Changsheng nodded in satisfaction, then took out the Sky-Replenishing Ointment and the spirit spring from Water Moon Cave Heaven.
Mixing the two in a certain ratio, Chen Changsheng carefully poured it over the egg.
While others watered flowers, Chen Changsheng “watered” the egg.
And so, Chen Changsheng’s “watering” lasted for two hundred years.
However, on a certain day two hundred years later, someone’s arrival broke this peaceful “egg-watering” life.
