From a perspective beyond mortal life, observe the entangled fates of love and hatred among cultivators across the river of time.
From a humble, less-than-prosperous town, Chen Changsheng steps into the dazzling world of cultivation. His journey, sometimes swift and sometimes slow, is marked by periods of rest and motion, yet he never ceases moving forward.
The End of Dharma Era, the Age of Emperors, the Dark Turmoil Era…
In every age, his figure lingers, yet all he can do is watch the passing of old friends and send them off to their final rest.
Chen Changsheng transmigrates into the vast cultivation world and awakens the Longevity System.
By sleeping for a year, his lifespan increases by another year, and he gains an attribute point.
“I, Chen Changsheng, have no interest in fighting or killing. I just want to sleep well and send my old friends off on their last journey.”
– After ten years of slumber, the village he once knew has changed beyond recognition.
– After a hundred years, the dynasty of his youth has vanished into history.
– After a thousand years, the flowers he casually planted have become treasured spirit herbs fought over by countless cultivators.
– After ten thousand years, the small bird he once raised has grown into a demon emperor.
One day, Chen Changsheng casually draws the woodcutter’s knife from his waist and makes a gentle slash, splitting the sky in two.
Human Emperor: “Teacher, is it truly you who has returned?”
Master of the Forbidden Land: “Ah, my old friend, how should I face you now?”

Chapter 1: Ten Years of Slumber, Things Remain but People Change “Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!” Pure white moonlight spilled across the pitch-black earth as a young man frantically spat dirt from his mouth. “They said golden nanmu wood wouldn’t rot for a thousand years, yet it turned to dust in just a decade.” “That damned Cripple […]
Chapter 2: The Endless Years, The Unavoidable Cycle “Cripple Li, there’s a problem with your coffin. I want a refund!” “Bullshit! No one has ever complained about my craftsmanship.” A figure shot straight up from inside a coffin, eyes sweeping the room in a furious glare to find the bastard slandering his life’s work. However,
Chapter 3: The Immortal Descends, Top Grade Water Spirit Root “Are you blaming me for not saving your mother?” Chen Changsheng asked the question mildly, prompting Li Niansheng to hurriedly reply. “No, I’ve never blamed you!” “When my mother passed away, I saw the sorrow and pain in your eyes.” “You’ve taken care of me
Chapter 4: For “Changsheng,” A Fifty-Year Journey Hearing Li Niansheng’s words, Chen Changsheng put down the book in his hands. He had been standing right there in the crowd during the immortal fate testing; he had merely slipped back to the shop one step ahead of her. Looking at Li Niansheng, who kept her head
Chapter 5: The Nameless Coffin Shop, The First Business “When the Host lives long enough, you will discover that nothing in this world remains forever unchanged.” “The Heavenly Dao is thus, and so are mortals.” “Hehehe.” “A System will always be a System, spewing philosophical jargon one structured line at a time.” Chen Changsheng chuckled
Chapter 6: Artificial Spirit Root, Chen Changsheng’s Unexpected Harvest He wiped away the bloodstains, meticulously stitching the scattered flaps of skin and flesh back together. He stripped away the tattered, blood-soaked clothes and dressed the corpse in a crisp, brand-new burial shroud. Chen Changsheng tidied the corpse’s appearance with the utmost care. He treated every
Chapter 7: Master Yixiu, See You in Eighty Years As Chen Changsheng’s voice fell, the System’s mechanical tone echoed in his mind. “Since the Host harbors such doubts, why not seek the truth yourself?” Chen Changsheng rolled his eyes, waving the thought away dismissively. “Cut the jokes. Why would I ever subject myself to something
Chapter 8: The Long Road to Longevity, Looking Back I Am Still Here Linglong Sect. Countless Cultivators converged from all directions. Some arrived via Sword Riding, some soared atop clouds and mist, while others commanded massive, terrifying flying Demon Beasts. They all gathered for a single purpose: to witness the Linglong Sect’s “Longevity Fairy” ascend
Chapter 9: A Woman Three Years Older Brings Gold Bricks, Artificial Spirit Root The moment he suspected Li Niansheng had taken a liking to Yixiu, the Linglong Sect Leader’s mind raced through a dozen different wedding arrangements. “Yixiu, my good nephew!” Zhao Dezhu greeted warmly. “How is your master, Zen Master Huihai, faring these days?”
Chapter 10: Eighty Years of Slumber, All Points Allocated to Defense Initially, Chen Changsheng couldn’t quite crack the methodology. Although Spirit Roots resided within the human body, no one in history actually knew what one looked like. Facing this biological hurdle, Chen Changsheng formulated a bold hypothesis. Namely, that a physical “Spirit Root” didn’t exist
Chapter 11: The Clever Yet Foolish Fox, Taoist Chen Changsheng Having figured out the situation, Chen Changsheng prepared to leave. Just then, the unconscious fox-eared girl stirred awake. Finding the green-haired corpse staring directly at her, she instantly curled into a terrified ball. “Wuwuwu!” “Please don’t eat me, my meat is sour.” Her reaction thoroughly
Chapter 12: The Lightning-Struck Wood Coffin and the Beloved Chen Changsheng Faced with this absurd level of “patience,” Qingfeng rolled his eyes hard enough to strain them. “This has nothing to do with taking things slow. You have absolutely no intention of reaching Foundation Establishment, do you?” “Other disciples linger in the Qi Condensation realm
Chapter 13: Bookworm Chen Changsheng, Two Hundred and Eighty Thousand Books After silently reciting the couplet ten times over, Master Yuanshen stroked his beard with immense satisfaction. “Only a disciple of mine, Master Yuanshen, could produce a couplet so profoundly imbued with the Dao.” “Look at the brushwork! Bold as iron, sharp as silver hooks,
Chapter 14: A Justified End for the Lightning-Struck Wood; The World Turns Taking a few breaths to recover from his shock, Qingfeng finally spoke. “This Five Elements Formation lineage you mentioned… I believe I’ve heard Master speak of it.” “It was the signature technique of a certain Sect two centuries ago, though it was eventually
Chapter 15: The Boundless Secret Realm and the Mysterious Stone Coffin Seeing Chen Changsheng zone out, Qingfeng assumed he was agonizing over the impending border war and chuckled. “Don’t sweat it. Only Cultivators at the Golden Core realm or above even have the right to serve as cannon fodder in a national war.” “By the
Chapter 16: Hundred Defeats Immortal Venerable, Crisis at the Border Listening to Chen Changsheng’s explanation, Yuanshan suddenly spoke up. “Big Brother Changsheng, since that Senior left behind his legacy here…” “…why aren’t there any trials guarding it?

Chapter 17: The Undertaker Reappears, The Shangqing Temple Defeated Sixth Senior Brother’s parting words left a vague knot of unease in Chen Changsheng’s chest. However, he let the feeling go almost immediately. Decades of walking the mortal world had taught him a very practical truth: once a situation escalates beyond your paygrade, dreading the outcome
Chapter 18: A Five-Thousand-Li Funeral Journey, The Princess of the Night Moon Country Hearing that name, Third Senior Brother’s eye flickered slightly, but he remained silent. Chen Changsheng smiled cheerfully, continuing his anecdote. “You even investigated the rumors thoroughly back then. You found out The Undertaker’s first appearance was to bury the Blood Demon Ancestor
Chapter 19: Disaster Strikes While Sitting at Home “What on earth should I use as a betrothal gift?” Chen Changsheng sat perched on a mountain peak, his brow furrowed in deep, pragmatic thought. Ever since he learned the Princess of Night Moon Country was scouting for a husband, he had been calculating how to secure
Chapter 20: A New Pet, the Bald Little White Wolf “Heh.” “You actually think this ragtag formation can hold me? Keep dreaming.” The woman sneered, immediately summoning two high-rank Dharma Treasures to blast her way out. But the moment the treasures took flight, her strength vanished. Her knees buckled, and she collapsed unceremoniously into the
Chapter 21: The Recruitment Assembly and the Vanished Immortal Chen Changsheng strolled casually down the bustling street, making small talk with the little white wolf tucked under his arm. “You know, back when Night Moon Country and the Daqian Dynasty traded blows, most of our cultivators were routed pretty convincingly,” Changsheng remarked. “But I’ve heard
Chapter 22: Guest of the Hu Estate, an Old Friend Returns The demon sovereigns present felt their brows knit in unison as they realized someone else was trying to gatecrash the recruitment assembly. While the decree technically invited the “talented youths of the world,” everyone knew this was an internal demon affair. The major clans
Chapter 23: The Grand Deception, the Demon Traitor Hu Meiniang nervously pulled Chen Changsheng into the room. Reunited with an old benefactor, emotions surged through the fox-girl’s heart.

Chapter 24: Return to the Bronze Ancient Hall, Forbidden Land of the Night Moon Country Following Hu Zhan’s lead, the group walked for quite some time before arriving at the mouth of a valley.

Chapter 25: The Secret of the Bronze Ancient Hall, An Ancient Story Chen Changsheng’s sheer, brazen indifference instantly made Lin Hu freeze. By the time he processed the disrespect, Lin Hu flew into a violent rage. But before he could strike, Hu Zhan’s Nascent Soul puppet stepped smoothly into his path. “Hu Zhan, what is
Chapter 26: The Wolf King Appears, Turtle Elder Strikes Fatally Countless eons ago, at regular intervals, a colossal hand would descend from the heavens, snatching up the living beings of the earth. The denizens of the earth fought back with suicidal desperation, but their struggles were utterly in vain. Until one day, someone discovered a
Chapter 27: The Traitor Revealed, An Unexpected Identity Elder Turtle’s sudden ambush caught everyone entirely off guard. Hu Zhan and Lin Hu were outright stunned.

Chapter 28: Chen Changsheng’s Trump Card, A Five-Hundred-Year Layout With his confession complete, Perfected Master Yuhua guided Chen Changsheng to the edge of the blood pool. “Changsheng, out of the entire Shangqing Temple, you are the one I value above all else.” “Do you know why I singled you out from the crowd the moment
Chapter 29: Li Niansheng is Missing, Fleeing Ten Thousand Miles Thud! Chen Changsheng collapsed weakly onto the dirt. Beside him lay Yixiu, his face carrying the pallor of a fresh corpse. After sensing the overwhelming might of Perfected Master Yuhua, the monk had spammed a secret technique six consecutive times, successfully teleporting the two of
Chapter 30: Parting Ways; To Meet is to Eventually Part Hearing this, Chen Changsheng felt a massive headache coming on. The world was vast and heavily populated. Where the hell was he supposed to find that girl, Niansheng? Noticing Chen Changsheng’s deep frown, Yixiu offered a reassuring smile. “Actually, you don’t need to stress over
Chapter 31: Chen Changsheng, Booming Business in Kuhai Town, Xuanwu Kingdom Faced with Chen Changsheng’s absolute indifference, Yixiu rolled his eyes and scoffed. “I truly cannot stand you, you heartless bastard. I’m leaving. I’ll come back to collect your corpse in eight hundred or a thousand years.” Yixiu turned and departed. Wanyan Yue cast one
Chapter 32: The Reappearance of the Ancient Bronze Hall, An Olive Branch from the Xuanwu Kingdom Chen Changsheng was in the midst of treating the townsfolk’s ailments. Suddenly, several suffocating waves of Pressure descended from the distant horizon. Sensing the overwhelming weight, the low-level cultivators of the Xuanwu Kingdom proficiently parted, carving open a wide
Chapter 33: Carriage Conversation, The Xuanwu Kingdom Emperor’s Lifespan Approaches Its End Within the spacious carriage, Chen Changsheng quietly held an ancient text, reading its pages with meticulous care. Sitting beside him, Zuo Xinghe observed this and immediately offered his praise. “Sir, you possess boundless knowledge, yet you never allow a scroll to leave your
Chapter 34: Devouring the Fruit Platter; Chen Changsheng: It’s All Trash Faced with Chen Changsheng’s suggestion, Zuo Xinghe remained silent, offering no response. Seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and said nothing more. Emperor Zuo had lived for two thousand three hundred years. His lifespan was double that of a Soul Formation cultivator. As the
Chapter 35: Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land; Chen Changsheng Appointed as State Preceptor Chen Changsheng’s words echoed through the grand hall, leaving the assembled experts completely stunned. They had assumed the helper invited by the eldest prince would possess some heaven-shaking background. Who could have anticipated he was merely a peddler of coffins. Even more absurd
Chapter 36: Emperor Zuo’s Scheme; Chen Changsheng’s First Entry into the Xuanwu Pavilion “Sir, why did you choose the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land?” After the banquet concluded, Zuo Xinghe intercepted the strolling Chen Changsheng. Seeing this, Chen Changsheng clicked his tongue. “I already stated the reason.” “Only the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land holds the slightest
Chapter 37: Burying the Grandmaster; Chen Changsheng and Emperor Zuo’s Transaction Chen Changsheng’s words plunged Zuo Xinghe into a heavy silence. After a while, Zuo Xinghe finally spoke. “Since Sir understands Imperial Father’s mind, what do you believe he will do next?” “What else could he do? Naturally, he is weighing whether he can afford
Chapter 38: The Return of The Undertaker; the Vigil of Old Friends A warship the size of a mountain slowly ascended into the clouds. Chen Changsheng stood upon the deck, his gaze fixed in the direction of the Daqian Dynasty. Half a century had slipped by in the blink of an eye. The faces of
Chapter 39: The Courage to Pursue Longevity, Meeting Third Senior Brother Again Chen Changsheng’s words left Zuo Xinghe utterly stunned. “Sir, you… how could you be The Undertaker?” “Why shouldn’t I be The Undertaker? Do not forget my trade is in coffins, and I tend to the full rites of the departed.” “I gather the
Chapter 40: New Graves Upon Old Graves, Emperor Zuo Takes Action As he spoke, Chen Changsheng reached out to strip Li Jinshui of his tattered robes.

Chapter 42: Forcing Entry into the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, Merely Frost Upon the Blade Hearing the Ascension True Person’s words, Emperor Zuo nodded. “If Fellow Daoist could endure for another thousand years, perhaps you would be worthy to cross blades with me.” “It is a pity you will not breathe that long.” “By the
Chapter 43: The True Great Terror, The Foundation of the Xuanwu Kingdom The crimson earth stretched to the horizon, an endless expanse of dried blood.

Chapter 46: A Century-Spanning Promise, Chen Changsheng Slumbers Once More “Emperor Zuo, it is not that I refuse to collect your remains. My time in this cycle has simply reached its end.” “Please endure a little longer. I shall return to conduct your rites when the next cycle arrives.” Chen Changsheng called out to Emperor
Chapter 47: Heaven-Earth Life-Extinguishing Formation, Another Part of the Truth An hour passed, and Chen Changsheng smoothly withdrew from his meditative state. Sensing the steady thrum of his late-stage Nascent Soul cultivation, Chen Changsheng clicked his tongue. “Late-stage Nascent Soul should suffice.

Chapter 48: The Three-Color Teleportation Array, The Deliberately Hidden Truth Faced with such profound uncertainty, a heavy reluctance weighed upon Chen Changsheng’s heart.

Chapter 49: The Struggle Between the Wu Clans, A Subtle “Hostile” Relationship “God Messenger, partake of these offerings.” The high priest offered a deep, ritualistic bow before withdrawing from the chamber. Before Chen Changsheng rested slabs of unidentifiable beasts and fresh, aura-rich fruits. Sweeping his gaze over the tribute, Chen Changsheng offered a faint, helpless
Chapter 50: Chen Changsheng Gets Spit On, The Whereabouts of the Ancient Bronze Hall The subtle, venomous antagonism between the White Wu and the Black Wu left Chen Changsheng momentarily perplexed.

Ever since stepping onto the path
Chapter 52: An Unexpected Delight, The Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art Mistranslated Listening to Gu Li’s description, Chen Changsheng gave a slow nod. “It is indeed a profound artifact, a pity it has been lost to the river of time.” “Since your ancestral methods cannot bury the Thunder Beast, you shall attempt mine.” “The Wu Clan
Chapter 53: A Girl Changes Greatly Over Eighteen Years, A Decade of Planning “Sir, did you gain any insights today?” A thickly-muscled young man clad in coarse linen stepped to Chen Changsheng’s side.

Chapter 54: Capturing the Thunder Beast, An Ordinary Corpse Listening to Chen Changsheng’s words, A’Man had no idea what he was planning. However, A’Man rarely concerned herself with such matters; her heart only ever held room for one thing. …… Time trickled away, and several months vanished in the blink of an eye. One day,
Chapter 55: The Thunder Beast’s Fatal Flaw, Stripping the Dao by a Thousand Cuts Chen Changsheng’s cold conviction instantly silenced the Thunder Beast.

This stone coffin is massive. Fitting three people is
Chapter 63: Kunlun Holy Son Jiang Bufan, Trouble Comes Knocking Hearing these complaints, a woman emerged from the back room. “Brother Changsheng, your temperament is truly peculiar. When business is slow, you lament the lack of customers.” “Yet when business flourishes, you complain once more. Do you actually want this shop to thrive or not?”
Chapter 64: Deciphering the Heaven-Mending Paste, Chen Changsheng Flees After exchanging a few pleasantries with Medicine Old Man, Chen Changsheng followed him into the thatched cottage. Looking at the translated prescription resting upon the wooden table, a rare surge of excitement rippled through Chen Changsheng’s heart. Back in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, Chen Changsheng had
Chapter 65: Ten Million Miles of Companionship, The Little Monk of the Past Chen Changsheng departed. He left behind the imposing Kunlun Holy Land and the prosperous Middle Heavens.

Chapter 66: Inauspicious Energy Reappears, Burying an Old Friend Casually rubbing his own bald head, the figure sat directly beside Yi Xiu. “Little monk, it has merely been a few centuries since we last crossed paths.

Chapter 67: An Old Friend Bids Farewell, Three Hundred and Twenty Years of Slumber Shrugging off the restraints, Wan Yan Yue demanded coldly, “You vanished for so long.

Chapter 68: An Unexpected Change, Chen Changsheng’s “Egg-Watering” Life The System’s cryptic words left Chen Changsheng covered in metaphorical question marks.

Cough!” Sitting cross-legged in meditation, Chen Changsheng suddenly doubled over, hacking violently. Worse
Chapter 69: The Heavenly Talent Assembly, Chen Changsheng: Am I The Undertaker’s Disciple? “Junior Ye Hensheng pays his respects to the Senior!” Before the rolling green peaks stood a young man clad in Daoist robes. Possessing sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, the youth cupped his hands in a deep salute, seemingly seeking an audience. Yet,
Chapter 70: A Sickly Little Dog, Beating Up the “Kindergarten” Having discerned Ye Hensheng’s true purpose, Chen Changsheng felt utterly repulsed in his heart. This so-called Heavenly Talent Assembly was clearly a chaotic quagmire. Given his cautious nature, he naturally harbored zero desire to wade into it. Just as he formulated an excuse to dismiss
Chapter 71: Zuo Xinghe Encounters an Old Acquaintance, Arriving at the Heavenly Talent Assembly After a brief exchange, Ye Hensheng and the python-robed young man finally settled on how to handle Chen Changsheng. They would simply let him be. Regardless of the circumstances, The Undertaker remained an old acquaintance of the Wolf Emperor; his cultivation

Chapter 77: The “Fat Grub” and the Price Beyond Reach Seeing that Chen Changsheng had no intent to reveal the provenance of the treasure, Jiang Feng wisely refrained from further inquiry.

Chapter 91: The Forbidden Land Makes Its Move, Heaven’s Mandate Appears! Facing Chen Changsheng’s demand, A-Li did not hesitate in the slightest, entirely relinquishing his bodily defenses.
