Nezha followed Child Bai He and soon arrived again at Kunlun Mountain Yuxu Palace. Upon arrival, Master Taiyi and several others were staring blankly at the shattered jade talisman, apparently unable to think of any solution.

Adding to that, Guang Chengzi and others were lying stiffly in another hall. With the recent disappearance of Nanji Immortal, the Chan Sect members had finally gathered again after many years. It was indeed a cause for celebration.

Master Taiyi and the others were delighted to see Nezha arrive. Nezha, known as the timely rain of the Primordial era, was indeed a loyal and righteous person. After a detailed explanation, Nezha waved his hand, indicating that Child Bai He had already explained everything clearly on the way.

"Master Taiyi, may I take a look at that jade talisman?"

Master Taiyi stepped aside, allowing Nezha to examine it closely.

As Nezha leaned in for a closer look, he felt a familiar sensation and noticed the suspicious characters on it — 'Longevity'? Whether for Yuanshi Tianzun or Nanji Immortal, longevity shouldn't be a problem. Why use these two words then?

With the residual Space Power, Nezha took out the Kunlun Mirror and began to meticulously deduce where it connected to.

On the other side, Child Bai He, who had again hid behind the crowd, felt somewhat skeptical about life upon seeing Nezha take out the Kunlun Mirror. Wasn't this supposed to have been borrowed by Taiyuan Saint Mother?

How did it end up in Uncle Nezha's hands?

As he considered Taiyuan Saint Mother's identity and the jade talisman Nezha had previously held, Child Bai He, with an outburst of imagination, eliminated all impossibilities to arrive at the only remaining possibility, looking suddenly at Nezha in disbelief. Could it be?

Could it be?

Could Uncle Nezha be the illegitimate child of the lord and Taiyuan Saint Mother?

At that moment, Nezha was deeply concentrated in his search for clues, entirely unaware of the brainstorm happening behind him with Bai He. The Kunlun Mirror was indeed a supreme Divine Artifact in time and space; Nezha alone wouldn't have been able to find it.

But the Kunlun Mirror, miraculously, followed some traces all the way to Chaos and then stopped. To explore the space beyond Chaos proved too challenging even for the mirror.

Nezha was quite surprised at this result. Why had it led back to Chaos again?

"Fellow brothers, this realm is not in the Primordial but far within Chaos, I'm afraid I am powerless to help."

This left everyone else stupefied. Was their eldest brother really that bold?

Guang Chengzi and others went to Chaos and have been lying hard ever since without rescue, and now you're off gallivanting again?

The earnest and straightforward Master Huang Long was indeed worried about Nanji Immortal and couldn't help but say, "What shall we do now?"

Nezha remained quiet and continued observing the shattered jade talisman. Yuanshi Tianzun's methods were inscrutable; whether there were residual plans or not, he could only guess bit by bit.

Looking at the material of the jade talisman, he couldn't help but take out the jade talisman he had received from Yuanshi Tianzun to compare it in his palm. As a result, the already shattered jade talisman emitted a faint azure light from the characters 'Longevity' and eventually transformed into a Divine Rune that merged into the jade talisman in Nezha's hand.

The formerly blank jade talisman now glimmered with golden light, and the words 'Longevity Heaven' appeared.

Nezha stared intently at the jade talisman in his hand. An inexplicable feeling told him that something crucial he had been searching for diligently was inside.

He tried his best to suppress his excitement and slowly asked, "Through this, we should be able to reach the world where Senior Brother Nanji is. Who among you wishes to go?"

Master Taiyi, Yun Zhongzi, Master Huang Long, and Jiang Ziya remained silent. Jiang Ziya, having come as an observer, didn't need mentioning. Taiyi, Yun Zhongzi, and Huang Long did entertain some thoughts of wanting to go, but staring at the words 'Longevity Heaven', the initially auspicious words inexplicably chilled their backs.

Their instincts frantically warned them that inside lay an immense terror, better not approached. The few hesitated in silence, already drenched in sweat on their foreheads.

After a moment of silence, it was Yun Zhongzi, possessing partial memories of Hong Yun, as the Fude True Immortal, who saw more clearly.

"Junior Brother, there is likely great terror in this realm. We would merely throw our lives away. I suggest waiting for our teacher's return before deciding."

The hesitant Taiyi concurred, "Indeed, that's how it should be."

In the end, even Huang Long, who didn't want to stand out unnecessarily, heeded his own Spiritual Sense, which told him that going might really result in finality.

Jiang Ziya, having no intentions of going, also readily agreed. He only wished for a peaceful life now.

Seeing everyone give up, Nezha nodded, then said, "I can make the journey on your behalf, but there is one condition."

It wasn't that Nezha was particularly keen on saving Nanji Immortal, but he inferred that the final trace of Hongmeng Purple Qi should be here in the Longevity Realm. As to how it ended up here, that would be a question for Yuanshi Tianzun.

Years ago, the last wisp of Hongmeng Purple Qi split into four, and this part was likely found by the Saint Yuanshi Tianzun, who most adhered to the cosmic timing, sealed it, and handed the key to his eldest disciple, Nanji Immortal.

This actually revealed Yuanshi Tianzun's tendency to protect his disciple. As for why it wasn't given directly, firstly, the abundance of disciples would have incited varying sentiments; second, the Primordial lacked the conditions for a ninth saint, leaving it would only make it a target of all.

Now, somehow, Nanji Immortal activated the key, but since the Longevity Realm was not within the Primordial due to Yuanshi Tianzun's absence, something must have changed. Though Yuanshi Tianzun seemed away for a few years, time flow varied in different places, especially when the Longevity Heaven lay beyond Chaos.

Nezha's previous question to Taiyi and others was essentially a disclaimer: if they didn't go, then he would, and any rewards or discoveries in saving Nanji Immortal would not be shared with the Chan Sect, and the sect would owe him a favor.
