"Two million years."
Hearing this, Ning Tian picked up his teacup, swirled the tea inside, and a complex look flashed in his eyes. Although he had been in this world for a long time and had become somewhat accustomed to it, two million years was still too long for him.
"yes."
Chen Gejiang smiled, looking detached and aloof: "Two million years is nothing. Believe me, time always flies by, after all..."
However, before he could finish his long explanation, Ning Tian interrupted him, holding his teacup and looking at Chen Gejiang with disdain, saying, "So, you're already this old."
"..."
Chen Gejiang smirked and looked helplessly at Ning Tian: "Fellow Daoist Ning, cultivators don't care about time. A few million years is still very young for some beings."
"Hmm, what you said makes a lot of sense, but I won't listen."
Ning Tian nodded and took a sip of tea.
Hearing this, even the good-tempered Chen Gejiang felt an inexplicable urge to beat up Ning Tian. This Ning Buxu was just too despicable.
but……
The thought of his two wives with powerful connections immediately extinguished Chen Gejiang's temper.
Although he has lived long enough, all he has is life. In terms of cultivation, he would actually lose in a real fight.
never mind.
I endured it.
Chen Gejiang took a deep breath, then looked at Ning Tian and changed the subject: "The main reason I called Fellow Daoist Ning here today is to answer some of your questions. I'm sure you have many questions after this trip to Black Soil Dead Mountain."
"Do you have any questions?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Tian frowned slightly, gradually becoming serious: "Is every forbidden zone of life possessed by an owner?"
"You could say that."
Chen Gejiang gave an ambiguous answer: "Every forbidden area was initially unclaimed, but over a long period of time, the laws of heaven and earth and spiritual energy continued to develop."
"In the end, many forbidden areas found owners."
"The laws of heaven and earth?"
Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Ning Tian's eyes, while Chen Gejiang shut his mouth, letting Ning Tian think about it on his own.
“Initially there was no master. With the passage of time, the rules of heaven and earth and the birth of spiritual energy gave rise to the master of the forbidden land of life…” Ning Tian frowned slightly, muttering to himself. After a moment of contemplation, a glint of light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
He seems to have... realized something.
"Could it be that the Lord of Death is itself the Law of Death?"
Ning Tian looked at Chen Gejiang and asked tentatively.
"No."
"Black Soil Dead Mountain does indeed have another name, the Forbidden Land of Death. However, the Lord of Death is not the Law of Death. She is merely a creature born from the Law of Death, and is the being closest to the Law of Death!"
Chen Gejiang sipped his tea and spoke slowly.
"Does that mean... other forbidden zones of life are the same?" Ning Tian raised an eyebrow.
"Not all areas are off-limits to life."
Chen Gejiang shook his head. "To be precise, all the forbidden zones of life that you know of are like this. Their masters are all beings born of heaven and earth, beings that are closest to the laws of nature."
"in other words."
"If Fellow Daoist Ru Ning wishes to fully unleash the power of the Celestial Divine Body, you must visit these forbidden zones of life born from the laws of heaven and earth."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Ning Tian frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and looked at Chen Gejiang: "What about them? Did they manage to do it?"
"No."
Chen Gejiang shook his head slightly. He knew that the "they" Ning Tian was referring to were the previous generations of Heavenly God Bodies. "Each of them has mastered one law to its limit, but no one has ever mastered a second one."
"Not to mention, he has mastered all the laws."
"Nothing at all?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Tian seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. Since there was no record, shouldn't he take the initiative to break it?
I wonder what kind of reward one will receive for shocking the Heavenly God Body?
Thinking about this, even he felt a sense of anticipation.
but…
According to Chen Gejiang, one cannot fully grasp the laws of a forbidden zone simply by going there once. For example, even after going to the Black Soil Dead Mountain, he did not gain a strong understanding of the laws of death.
So, in that case...
"Then wouldn't I have to go to Black Soil Dead Mountain again?"
Ning Tian's lips twitched.
If I go to Black Soil Dead Mountain again, what if the woman, the Lord of Death, disregards my background and tries to take action?
"yes."
Chen Gejiang nodded with a smile, waving his folding fan: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Ning, if you go again, Death might just give you the true Law of Death. After all, you stole her breast binder... Pfft!"
Chen Gejiang hadn't finished speaking.
A fist appeared before his eyes, then everything went black, and he was sent flying into the sky, disappearing like a shooting star.
"I didn't expect that Pavilion Master Chen flew so far."
Bai Liu, holding the Death Bell, silently watched Chen Gejiang disappear into the sky and said something.
"Phew..." Ning Tian silently withdrew his fist and breathed a sigh of relief. He almost let this fortune teller say something he shouldn't have. Fortunately, he struck first and knocked him away.
"Fellow Daoist Ning, what did you steal from the Lord of Death?"
Bai Liu looked over.
"Ahem, it's nothing, that damn fortune teller just made it up." Ning Tian waved his hand slightly, coughed, and then said, "By the way, Bai Liu, can you tell me properly about the Reincarnation God now?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Bai Liu paused for a moment, her grip on the Death Bell tightening involuntarily. After a while, she shook her head: "I'll tell you the details when you're ready to head to the Endless Sea."
"Now, absorb the Law of Death that I promised you. Although it can't compare to the Lord of Death's, it's at least a level of law comprehension."
"As for the Death Bell... I can't give it to you right now."
"OK."
Ning Tian didn't hesitate and nodded.
Although Bai Liu's laws of death are not as powerful as those of the Lord of Death, they are still far superior to those of ordinary people. As for why the Death Bell did not give itself to him, he understood in his heart that Bai Liu was the spirit of the Death Bell and certainly did not want to submit so early.
He's not in a hurry; he'll just let things take their course.
"Alright, Fellow Daoist Ning, get ready."
Bai Liu said something.
Then, the deathly aura quietly spread, and the death bell he was holding began to ring.
Thump—thump—
Each chime of the bell seems to represent a different mood or sentiment.
"This is……"
Upon hearing the sound of the death bell, Ning Tian was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowing involuntarily. The sound seemed to transport him to a deathly place, with countless auras of death sweeping over him.
“That’s right, Fellow Daoist Ning.”
Bai Liu's calm voice rang out, "You must hear the sound of the death bell and comprehend the laws of death."
