In my twilight years of cultivating, I became a Supreme Daoist of the Longevity Path-Chapter 981

Perhaps there was a Heavenly Will at work in the depths of the unknown.

The two of them.

One had traveled to this place.

One had reforged his soul.

...

Yet they had met at their lowest, depended on each other for survival, and gradually supported each other to this day.

It was as if they had debts owed to each other from a previous life, and had agreed to repay these debts in this life.

…

Days of cultivation passed like days from heaven, and swiftly, nearly four months had fleeting passed.

In these four months, besides devoting himself to the building of the sect and the training of disciples, Chen Dengming had fully immersed himself in cultivation.

However, now that his cultivation had reached the middle phase of the Nascent Soul Stage, though the pace of cultivation hadn’t slowed, breaking through to the next realm was not as easy.

In four months, the proficiency of the “Heavenly Immortal Skill” had only increased by 60 points.

Without the support from the resources of the Hall of Human Heart and the Heaven Longevity Hall.

Proceeding with normal cultivation, even inhabiting within Longevity Peak, which possessed a level four Spirit Vein, would take a long time for him to break through to the late phase of the Nascent Soul Stage.

In the early days of the Nascent Soul Stage, Chen Dengming had to cultivate the “Heavenly Immortal Skill” for two days to complete a Grand Circulation before gaining three strands of Nascent Soul power, which is 3 points of proficiency.

Now that he had entered the middle phase of the Nascent Soul Stage, he continued to refine his cultivation to improve the quality of Nascent Soul power.

One Grand Circulation now only yielded two strands of power, equating to 2 points of proficiency.

At this rate, to progress from the middle to the late phase of the Nascent Soul Stage, he needed to diligently cultivate every day and would have to meditate for nearly 99 years to completely break through.

…

At this moment.

Inside his cave abode, Chen Dengming was sitting quietly with his mind serene and all thoughts void, Spiritual Light beautifully hovering above his head.

Strands of incense burning from corners of the cave were gradually entwining with the steaming Spiritual Light above his head, creating an ethereal illusion, truly resembling the demeanor of immortals.

This time, a Grand Circulation of cultivation had ended, and it was deep into the night.

Outside the cave abode, the night was deep, the dew was fresh and clean as the moon moved past pear trees step by step.

His slightly closed eyes suddenly opened as the cultivation session ended.

A flash of precision darted across his eyes, illuminating the cave abode, brighter than the silver moonlight.

However, feeling the addition of the two strands of Nascent Soul power within his body, he couldn’t help but lament the difficulties of cultivation.

“After breaking through to the middle phase of the Nascent Soul Stage, I have absorbed much Immortal Qi from within the Hall of Human Heart.

Now, the proficiency of the ‘Heavenly Immortal Skill’ has accumulated almost six thousand points, and with regular sequential cultivation, I only need another eighty plus years to break through…

But these eighty plus years, day after day, every single day, sitting for the better part of the day, the effort and deep concentration needed for cultivation, I would not have managed at the beginning of my journey here…”

Thinking of this, the slight restlessness in Chen Dengming’s heart gradually calmed down, and he also felt fortunate and amused.

Once, he had regretted and felt sorry for himself, lamenting that he had dallied in the mortal world for over eighty years before stepping onto the path of immortality in his twilight years, essentially wasting his time.

If he had started from the Cultivation World from the beginning of his journey, what might his achievements have been…

Now, upon careful consideration.

It was actually fortunate that he had those eighty years in the mortal world as a transition, which enabled him to survive more easily after his arrival, and after facing many mortal trials, he became more patient and experienced over the years.

Otherwise, really starting from the Cultivation World as a transmigrator, he might not have made it this far and would have long since perished.

“Among transmigrators, I am actually one of the luckier ones…”

Chen Dengming felt that if this good fortune could continue, like if the opening time of the Broken Heavenly Immortal Realm could be delayed further beyond what was imagined.

Then perhaps, it would uniquely coincide with his breakthrough to the late phase of the Nascent Soul Stage, when the Broken Heavenly Immortal Realm would open.

Chen Dengming harbored this expectation in his heart as he observed the status panel that he hadn’t scrutinized in detail for a long time.

“Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator [Chen Dengming]

Longevity: 229/851/4905

Spiritual Root: Water, Wood (Top grade 100/100)

Martial Arts: ‘Chen Family Martial Arts Compendium’ (Immortal Martial Arts 18/100)

Daoism: ‘Longevity Skill’ (Complete), ‘Heavenly Immortal Skill’ (Mid stage 5812/36000).

Dao Orthodoxy: Heavenly Immortal Dao Orthodoxy (Blessing, Longevity, Fate): others omitted…”

After his breakthrough to the middle phase of the Nascent Soul Stage, his lifespan had increased by one hundred eighty years.

In the Nascent Soul Stage, breaking through each minor realm generally increased lifespan by about one hundred eighty years.

This was, of course, because he was cultivating the Longevity Sect’s “Heavenly Immortal Skill.”

Other Nascent Soul Stage cultivators cultivating different techniques might not attain a lifespan increase of even a hundred years per minor realm breakthrough, let alone one hundred eighty years.

“The power of the Nascent Soul is much harder to cultivate than that of the Golden Core, and is also much purer; the quality is just different.

This quality-induced transformation allows for more increase in lifespan with each minor realm during the Nascent Soul Stage than during the Golden Core Stage.

However, the Golden Core Stage’s Longevity Skill is divided into twelve layers, and breaking through each layer extends life by twenty years.

Because of my panel, which directly ties cultivation to increased lifespan, I could add an extra five years per layer.

The normal lifespan for Golden Core cultivators of the Longevity Sect after breaking through twelve layers would thus extend by two hundred years.

This is also why the typical lifespan limit for normal Golden Core cultivators is eight hundred years, whereas for Longevity Sect’s Golden Core cultivators, it is one thousand years…”

“My cultivation directly leads to lifespan extension, giving me an even greater advantage.

Now, I still have over four thousand years of life to live…

If I exert myself more, I could potentially live up to six thousand years like the Ancestor.

Even if I manage to achieve Divine Transformation in the future, I might become the longest-living individual since the fracturing of the Five Great True Immortal Paths…”

Chen Dengming mused, yet he was not carried away by such thoughts.

He stood up, waved his sleeves, and extinguished the Spirit Condensing Incense at the four corners of the cave.
