"Hey kiddo, have you learned to call daddy today?"
Chen Tianliang walked over with a big smile, reaching out to pinch Chen Zhixing's little face.
Slap.
Yingy Shuangshuang slapped Chen Tianliang's hand, glaring at him, "Stop pinching the child's face all the time, he'll drool when he grows up. Besides, the kid is only three months old, how can he speak?"
Chen Tianliang withdrew his hand, nonchalantly saying, "That's other people's kids for you. Our child is a Nine Ancient Patterner. Don't say speaking at three months is special; if he could speak right from the womb, I wouldn't be surprised."
After saying that, Chen Tianliang bent down, looking at Chen Zhixing with a smile:
"Come on, kiddo, say 'daddy' for me."
Chen Zhixing glanced at him.
"Come on, don't be stingy, daddy will teach you, alright?" Chen Tianliang opened his mouth and slowly said:
"Repeat after me."
"Dee-yay-dee-dee, daddy."
"Ah!" Chen Zhixing nodded his little head.
"Say it again, dee-yea-dee, daddy~~"
"Uh-huh!"
"Yes, yes, dee-yea, hmm? Wait a minute!" Chen Tianliang suddenly realized, eyes widening like saucers, and said:
"Wife, it seems like he's teasing me!"
Yingy Shuangshuang couldn't help but giggle when she saw this, gently picking up Chen Zhixing in her arms and softly saying:
"Little Zhixing, I'm mommy. Can you call me mommy?"
Chen Zhixing looked at Yingy Shuangshuang. He had originally planned to take the opportunity to speak and now finally found a chance.
In the next moment, Chen Zhixing, in a babyish voice, uttered two words: "Mommy."
All of a sudden.
Yingy Shuangshuang's whole body shuddered as if struck by lightning.
"He... he called me mommy! Hahaha, Zhixing called me mommy!"
Yingy Shuangshuang couldn't help but cry tears of joy, both laughing and crying.
In this world, no one can truly share the surprise a mother feels the first time her child calls her mommy.
Seeing this, Chen Tianliang quickly came over, grinning, "Come on, say 'daddy'."
"Uh-huh!"
"???"
Chen Tianliang was dumbfounded, his expression blank as he opened his mouth, finally choosing to remain silent.
On the side, Yingy Shuangshuang once again couldn't help but giggle, then patiently asked, "Sweetie, do you want something to eat? Mommy can make it for you, or do you want to go out and play?"
Chen Zhixing spoke in a babyish voice, "I want to read books."
As soon as he spoke, Chen Zhixing couldn't help but be a little confused.
What's happening with my speech?
Then, Chen Zhixing suddenly realized it should be related to his vocal cords not being fully developed yet.
"Want to read books?"
Yingy Shuangshuang was stunned, hesitantly replying, "Zhixing, do you want to learn to read books?"
Chen Zhixing nodded his head.
Upon hearing this, Yingy Shuangshuang was a bit delighted.
Already wanting to learn to read?
'The legend says prodigies are born holy. Some are born with knowledge; I've indeed seen it.'
Yingy Shuangshuang thought to herself and said, "Zhixing, what kind of books would you like to read?"
Chen Zhixing said seriously with his little face, "I want to read about cultivation."
"Cultivation books?"
Yingy Shuangshuang was slightly taken aback; was her child so small but already knew the word cultivation?
She looked at the clueless Chen Tianliang next to her and immediately shouted, "Did you hear that, daddy? The kid wants to read about cultivation."
Chen Tianliang then jolted back to his senses and replied, "Alright, alright, I'll go to the Scripture Pavilion right away."
....
....
Several days later.
Chen Zhixing first tried to recognize words, and under his Heaven-defying Comprehension, he mastered them all in just half a day.
Then he began to gradually show this in front of Chen Tianliang and Yingy Shuangshuang, allowing them to gradually accept it.
The two were amazed but didn't find it too bizarre.
Compared to Chen Zhaosheng's Innate King Map and divine nature, their child's little extraordinariness didn't seem like much.
On this day.
Chen Zhixing sat alone on a rocking chair in the room, surrounded by piles of books.
[Ding! After watching "True Essence 76 Techniques", you fully comprehended it under Heaven-defying Comprehension!]
[Ding! After watching "Gale Sword Dao", you perfected it to an incredible level under Heaven-defying Comprehension!]
[Ding! After watching "Array True Understanding Complete Collection", you learned ten arrays under Heaven-defying Comprehension!]
[Ding! After watching "Lingmu Master's Travelogue", you memorized the Cangxuan Realm map under Heaven-defying Comprehension!]
[Ding! After watching "Medicine King Valley Annotation", you acquired the alchemy foundation under Heaven-defying Comprehension!]
Cold notification sounds echoed continuously in Chen Zhixing's mind.
Chen Zhixing's speed was rapid, almost finishing a book every half incense stick time.
In his eyes, numerous Great Tao Runes flickered and rotated, looking divine yet not human.
At this moment, he was like a sponge thrown into a sea of knowledge, frantically absorbing vast amounts of information.
Sword Dao!
Alchemy Dao!
Array!
So, so many things!
His understanding of this world was improving rapidly at an astonishing speed!
A moment later.
Chen Zhixing placed down the last book in his hand, exhaling a long breath.
"This Cangxuan Realm is even broader and more comprehensive compared to the world in the 'Great Cultivation' game."
Chen Zhixing's eyes constantly sparkled.
Perhaps because in his past life, when playing games, he only completed single mainline tasks, he didn't really delve deeply into the entire game's background.
After skimming through several books, he finally gained a whole new understanding.
The entire Cangxuan Realm is vast beyond measure.
Above, there are three Great Immortal Tao Lineages dominating the world, independently standing atop the clouds.
Below, various ancient sacred lands and Longevity Families coexist, dominating the world's rise and fall.
In addition, the Buddhist Pure Land, Confucianism Grand Sect, Overwhelming Dynasty, Demon Sect, Demon Tao, evil spirits, and various sects and schools are spread across the Cangxuan Realm.
Almost everything that a traditional fantasy world should have is in this universe.
The Chen Family, residing on Ziwei Mountain, was once one of the Longevity Families.
Five thousand years ago, the Chen Family Ancestor Chen Xuanfeng reached the Great Longevity Realm, and the Chen Family soared with him, becoming a Longevity Family.
At that time, it was a period of great glory.
However.
With the later disappearance of the Chen Family Ancestor Chen Xuanfeng three thousand years ago, leaving no trace.
The Chen Family naturally declined.
Now, looking at the whole Chen Family, the strongest on the surface is the Patriarch Chen Daoyan in the Nirvana Realm.
Don't even mention the Great Longevity Realm, whether or not the family has a Peak Realm powerhouse is uncertain.
However, familiar with the game's plot, Chen Zhixing knew very well that within the forbidden land of the family's back mountain, there was still a direct grandchild of Chen Xuanfeng alive, who was a Peak Realm power.
This individual was also the Stabilizing Needle of the entire Chen Family.
He clearly remembered, after the death of the antagonist NPC Chen Zhixing in the main plot.
When the Chen Family clashed without compromise with the protagonist due to Chen Zhixing, this Peak Ancestor of the Chen Family once emerged into the world.
Yet, because the protagonist was favored by a Saintess from an Immortal Tao Lineage, this Saintess asked a Peak Ancestor from the Immortal Tao Lineage to help the protagonist, having him slay this ancestor on Ziwei Mountain.
The Chen Family turned into a backdrop for the protagonist's rise, eventually crumbling and falling apart.
"I need to hurry."
Chen Zhixing's eyes flickered with contemplative colors.
If he sits and waits for death until the plot develops to where he offends the protagonist, perhaps it will be too late by then.
He must seize the opportunity before the protagonist fully spreads his wings and hasn't yet connected with the Immortal Tao Lineage Saintess to eliminate the protagonist.
Doing so, whether it's his fate or his parents' fate, can be rewritten.
"In other words, currently, I am racing against the protagonist who is still unknown somewhere."
Chen Zhixing's eyes gleamed with enlightenment.
