jixia academy

Inside the Ancestral Land

Yan Shenggong and Lee Taibai had already risen from the stage, and were holding their breaths as they watched the Old Confucian Scholar slowly walk over. After he entered the Ancestral Land, the two Sovereign of the academy respectfully bowed like two disciples paying respects to a schoolboy, "Greetings Ya Shen!"

Sovereign of the academy, he could be said to be an existence that stood at the very peak of Confucian Sect, regardless of status or strength. And to be able to make the two of them perform such a huge ceremony, in the history of Confucian Sect, there were only a few people who could be counted of it.

Evidently, the Old Confucian Scholar who was currently in the Ancestral Land of the Academy was one of them.

Let alone them, even if Zhang Sheng was here, just based on the level of Confucian Sect and etiquette, he would have to bow to this old man in front of him.

The Confucian Sect, Ya Shen, was only second to the previous saint teacher, and was the person who nurtured the most noble aura in the endless years of the inheritance of Confucian Sect. He rose from the very beginning of the ancient era, and helped the jixia academy to survive the most difficult years of the ancient era.

In regards to such an ancient and powerful being, not a single person in the Confucian Sect didn't have respect for him. However, Yan Shenggong and Lee Taibai never would have thought that Ya Shen, who had risen to prominence in the beginning of the ancient era, would actually still be alive and had not fallen after hundreds of thousands of years.

One had to know, Paramount Level only had a lifespan of ten thousand years, even the saints who were reputed to not fall even after ten thousand years only had a lifespan of one hundred thousand years.

Of course, there were also other ways for Saints to survive. For example, if they wanted to find the legendary Longevity Drug, or cut themselves, they would sacrifice most of their strength and lie low like some creatures that needed to hibernate.

Therefore, although the Saints in charge of the different realms had risen in power since ancient times, they had also lived for hundreds of thousands of years, using the second method. There was also the Cang Clan ancestor, Cang Lan, who had survived from the Last Year of Ancient Time's existence until now, who had completely disappeared, who had also relied on this method to endure for millions of years.

If not for this, no matter how transcendent Zhang Sheng was back then, or how magical the Sky-measuring Ruler was, it would have been impossible for it to seal all the Saints in this world with just a remnant of its soul.

Although this technique was extremely extreme, to Saints, it could be said to be the best way to escape the power of time. After all, no one was willing to rot and fall in the end, let alone stand at the top of the world, like a God looking down on all living beings.

Of course, it was not true that he had managed to escape with his saber. It was just that he had used his own strength as a price to slow down the flow of his life.

To put it nicely, this was a delay, but to put it crudely, it was just the last breath of life. If not for this, the saints in the foreign lands, the God, and even the immortals who had already stepped onto the path of longevity would not be painstakingly pursuing this dream-like opportunity.

In this world, who could truly live forever?

Furthermore, these kind of saints had a huge hidden danger, and every time they attacked, they would have to pay an extremely terrifying price. In fact, if they wanted to recover to its peak, the consequences would be similar to the ascension of the extreme realms of the Paramount Level living beings.

At this moment, Yan Shenggong and Lee Taibai were also worried in their hearts. After all, Ya Shen had already lived for far longer than an ordinary Saint. If he were to survive by using the method of self-beheading, there would definitely be an extremely frightening backlash when he attacked just now.

And as the two Sovereign of the academy were worried in their hearts, the Old Confucian Scholar cast his gaze towards Yan Shenggong and sighed, "You … "The bloodline of this generation's Sage Yan?"

Sage Yan's bloodline was also the only descendant left behind by the teachers who had established the way of Confucian Sect. Thus, no matter how low the realm of this bloodline was, it still possessed an incomparably unique and lofty status within the Confucian Sect.

Of course, for a person with the bloodline of a teacher, even if they were unable to step into the realm of Saints, their achievements would not be too low.

"Wu, Blue Lotus Sword Immortal Lee Taibai, his sword aura is not inferior to those fellows from the Eastern Desolation Sword Sect."

Old Confucian Scholar turned his gaze towards Lee Taibai, and sighed helplessly. "What a pity, the two of you were born in the wrong time, and were delayed by Zhang Hengqu for a thousand years."

Yan Shenggong and Lee Taibai both smiled bitterly, looking at Old Confucian Scholar worriedly.

Regarding this, Old Confucian Scholar seemed to know what the two of them were thinking, and said indifferently: "The two of you do not need to worry, although the amount of damage I have done is not small, there are not too many hidden dangers."

Yan Shenggong and Lee Taibai were startled when the words sounded out. Immediately, their eyes shrunk slightly as they spoke in disbelief, "Ya Shen …" Did you find the legendary Longevity Drug?! "

It had been one hundred thousand years since the birth of Ya Shen, and it had been at least seven hundred thousand years since the rise of Ya Shen. If one were to calculate the lifespan of a saint, then one should have perished long ago.

However, the Saint who made a move would definitely pay a terrible price and there would be an extremely terrifying backlash. Ya Shen however, was fine at the moment, which made the two Confucian Sect Sovereigns to be stunned, but another guess immediately surfaced in their hearts.

Longevity Drug!

Only the Longevity Drug in the legends, which could allow the Saints to live another life, could let Ya Shen avoid the power of time!

But regarding this, the Old Confucian Scholar still shook his head and sighed: "Longevity Drug s are extremely rare even in the ancient times, not to mention today, they are long gone."1

Yan Shenggong and Lee Taibai's expression changed from shock to confusion, not because of the Longevity Drug? It wasn't like he was cutting himself?

Then how could the former avoid the power of time and survive for hundreds of thousands of years?

One must know that although a saintly person's lifespan was not short, it was only a few hundred thousand years.

"Could it be …" "Ya Shen's Realm …"

Lee Taibai's body trembled as if he had thought of something. He looked at Old Confucian Scholar in shock, causing the latter to also smile faintly and nod: "You're quite intelligent. The biggest reason why this old one has been able to live through these hundreds of thousands of years is because I have caught a glimpse of the divine way! "

Seeing the Path of God, yet not truly entering the Realm of Gods, never being able to become a saint, this was the demigod Ancestor of Candle Dragon spoke of.

However, it was clear that although SemiGods could not be considered to be true God, they were not comparable to ordinary Saints. At the very least, they were similar to Saints in terms of longevity.

Seeing the undisguised envious expressions of the two, Old Confucian Scholar merely smiled bitterly and shook his head, then sighed: "The path of cultivation is bumpy. Right now, I have just gotten rid of my identity as a prisoner and am stepping onto a road of no return, there is nothing much to be envious about."
