"Uh, this is..."
"A blue crystal, and it looks like there's a person frozen inside?"
"Is it a person? It looks more like a monkey to me."
After the stone that held the silver gourd was cut away, everyone saw an oval-shaped blue crystal, about two meters tall.
This blue crystal is not transparent; rather, it appears quite cloudy.
You can vaguely see that something seems to be sealed inside, and it looks like a person.
"Holy crap, what's going on?"
"A living being was cut out? Alive or dead?"
"I think it's more likely that it died. After all, it was a creature from who knows how many years ago. Wasn't the centipede that was just cut out dead?"
"This situation is different. The centipede turned into a dried corpse and was buried in the rocks, but this one looks like it was sealed in some kind of divine source."
The group of people looked at each other, completely bewildered.
"This is... the Source of Longevity!"
Suddenly, Nangong Dao's eyes narrowed sharply, his gaze repeatedly sweeping over the blue crystal.
He recognized what it was!
"It's actually the Source of Longevity?"
Li Tianyi didn't recognize him at first, but as Nangong Daoyi spoke, he recognized him and his eyes widened immediately.
Immediately afterwards, I felt my heart bleeding!
He never dreamed that this sacred jade stone could actually yield the source of longevity!
What is the Longevity Source?
"Big Black Ox asked curiously."
Even a great god-emperor like him doesn't know what the Source of Longevity is, so naturally no one else would know either.
In fact, Chen Xuan was also completely confused. It was the first time he had ever heard of this thing. Of course, he didn't show it, but pretended to be confident.
Nangong Daoyi slowly and solemnly said, "Who in this world can escape death? No matter how outstanding your talent, how unparalleled your elegance, how unique your abilities, or how much land you possess, in the end, you will be nothing more than a mound of dust!"
"No one can achieve immortality, not even the supreme beings!"
"Supreme powerhouses are said to live as long as the heavens; as long as the heavens perish, the supreme beings will never die!"
"But even the heavens will one day crumble!"
boom!
Upon hearing this, everyone present was so shocked that their jaws nearly dropped to the ground.
Nangong Daoyi's words were undoubtedly telling everyone that even an invincible supreme being can die!
"This...how is this possible? Even a supreme being can die?"
Some people simply couldn't believe it, thinking such a statement was too outrageous.
However, the one who said such a thing, Nangong Daoyi, is the Supreme's own grandson!
The Nangong family is truly an invincible family that has produced supreme beings!
Therefore, Nangong Daoyi is completely unworthy to say such things!
"Below the Supreme Being, even the Great Emperor, who is extremely powerful, has a limited lifespan, usually around ten thousand units."
"The number of one cycle is 129,600 years. Ten thousand one cycles would be 1,296 million years!"
Nangong Daoyi continued speaking.
1.296 billion years is exactly one era, because the period of Tianyuan's dominance is this long, and even supreme powerhouses find it difficult to cross such a chasm as Tianyuan!
"Below the Great Emperor, the lifespan of Great God Emperor and God Emperor is the same, which is 1.296 billion years."
"Below the God Emperor, the Quasi-God Emperor has a slightly shorter lifespan. Every tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years, they will experience the Five Decays of Heaven and Man. If they can overcome it, they can live for tens of millions of years longer. If they cannot overcome it, they will return to dust and ashes, and their bodies and souls will perish."
"The timing of the five signs of decay is different for each person."
"In fact, the so-called five signs of decay in a celestial being means that one's lifespan has come to an end and the physical body can no longer sustain it. Surviving the five signs of decay in a celestial being means being reborn as a second person!"
"But most people don't live to be reborn."
"But what if some people can't break through their cultivation level and can't live a second life?"
"This is the time when we need to use this source of longevity!"
After going around in circles, Nangong Daoyi finally brought the topic back to the blue crystal that was cut out of the silver gourd!
He slowly said, "For those who do not wish to die of old age, they can seal themselves into this source of longevity and achieve a certain degree of immortality!"
"No matter how many years it is sealed, as long as the seal is not broken, it can remain sealed forever!"
"Only supreme experts have the ability to refine the source of immortality!"
As Nangong Dao spoke, his gaze was fixed intently on the Source of Longevity, and curiosity was evident in his eyes.
What exactly is sealed inside the Source of Longevity?
Who was the supreme being who created this source of immortality?
At this moment, Li Tianyi added, "A single drop of the Longevity Source is worth trillions of divine resources! Moreover, it's the kind that's priceless and unavailable!"
Whoosh!
These words caused an uproar in the entire room!
No one expected that Changshengyuan would be so valuable.
However, this is something that only a supreme being can refine, so it's normal that it's very valuable!
"Wow, a single drop is worth trillions of divine resources! This huge lump, how many drops must that be? How much is it worth?"
Some people were drooling. There was no way around it; this stuff was just too valuable. Who wouldn't want to take a cut and bring it home?
Of course, this is just wishful thinking; anyone who dares to step forward and deduct points will lose their head in the next moment.
Li Tianyi was filled with deep regret and remorse.
Damn it, of all things, I've had this treasure for so many years, but I just couldn't bring myself to cut it open.
If it had been cut open earlier, this huge lump of Changshengyuan would have all been his!
At that time, he will be the richest man among the God Emperors!
His wealth far surpasses that of the other three top-tier jade gambling masters from the Southern Barbarians!
Now look what happened! Because I couldn't bear to part with it, it all went to waste!
“Refining the source of longevity is extremely energy-consuming. Even a Supreme Being will not refine too many, because this kind of source of longevity also requires the Supreme Being’s heart’s blood.”
"The blood of the heart is formed from the condensation of essence and blood. The true substance of longevity in the source of longevity is this blood of the heart of the supreme being."
"Even my grandfather didn't refine many Longevity Sources back then."
Nangong Daoyi continued to speak. The grandfather he mentioned was naturally the invincible Nan Zun from the barbaric era!
"Generally speaking, only the direct descendants of the Supreme Being, or their trusted subordinates, are qualified to enjoy the Source of Longevity!"
"Now, within this stone, the source of longevity has been cut out, and a being is sealed inside. This person is either a descendant of the Supreme Being or a confidant of the Supreme Being!"
"Do you want to open this source of longevity now?"
Nangong Dao asked seriously.
