Although Sheng Mingyue has always regarded Mu Lingjiu as an opponent, and has never been very kind to Mu Lingjiu.
But she was a decent person at heart, with good qualities, and she had shown mercy to her before. She couldn't bear to see her really die.
Lu Zhibai naturally knew what Mu Lingjiu was thinking and reminded him:
"Master doesn't have much time either. If it's not her, it will be someone else. However, it would be best if it's a Spiritual Emperor."
Mu Lingjiu couldn't help but be curious, "If Master could replace the body of the Spiritual Emperor, how long would it last?"
Lu Zhibai narrowed his eyes.
Mu Lingjiu asked how long it could last, not whether it could completely replace the place.
It can be seen that Mu Lingjiu knew that even if his master changed into a Spiritual Emperor's body, he would not be able to last for too long.
In today's world, no body can withstand the current amount of divine energy that Master possesses, unless one becomes a god.
However, the divine path in this world has been cut off. Until a breakthrough in the divine path is found, the master will always face the need to change his body.
"A hundred years." Lu Zhibai replied.
Mu Lingjiu narrowed his eyes, "In other words, Master must change his body every hundred years?"
Lu Zhibai shook his head. "If I were to freeze and sleep, this period would be much longer, perhaps two or three hundred years, or even longer. However, as the divine energy spreads within the body, it will gradually erode. This erosion can only be slowed down, not eliminated."
"Then Master can give up cultivating the divine spirit energy." Mu Lingjiu said, "It's not necessary to cultivate it."
"On the path of cultivation, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Master has no way out." Lu Zhibai's voice was soft, his eyes a little dazed. "Originally, ten thousand years ago, Master was just one step away from becoming a god. Later, the path to godhood was cut off, and Master was suppressed, and can only linger on. However, if Master can regain the godhood, he will return his body to Sheng Mingyue."
"Is that so..." Mu Lingjiu remained noncommittal and was half-believing and half-doubting what Lu Zhibai said.
"So, we both cultivated divine energy, but we didn't feel any backlash."
"It's because this power isn't strong enough. Once it reaches Master's level, my body will quickly decay. Right now, I'm only grasping this critical value."
Having said that, Lu Zhibai looked at Mu Lingjiu with a soothing look, "Don't worry, this won't affect you. We already have a good understanding of the divine energy. You and I won't practice like Master. Master just didn't have any other options at that time..."
Mu Lingjiu nodded without saying anything more. Watching Sheng Mingyue's sedan chair completely disappear, she lowered her head and gently scratched the black cat's head with her slender white fingers.
The furry head rubbed Mu Lingjiu gently, then turned its head, raised its black eyes lazily, glanced at Lu Zhibai, and revealed a meaningful and weird smile.
Lu Zhibai frowned slightly, wondering what this thing wanted to do next to Mu Lingjiu.
It has been ten thousand years. Logically speaking, after ten thousand years, Mu Lingjiu has been reincarnated and has forgotten it. It is now just a cat all year round. In what capacity does it stay by Mu Lingjiu's side?
Pets?
Lu Zhibai looked at the black cat with an exploratory look.
If he didn't know that the black cat was the Nine Nether Emperor, he would not take the black cat seriously.
But knowing its identity and methods, Lu Zhibai still cared a lot.
However, since he still doesn't know the black cat's trump card, Lu Zhibai will not rashly confront it.
He just glanced at her lightly and then withdrew his gaze.
The black cat licked its paws and continued to nestle in Mu Lingjiu's arms. Its black eyes scanned the entire audience with great indifference.
"Lingjiu, you are here!" At this moment, Mu Lingfeng and Mu Lingxiong hurried over and ran happily in front of Mu Lingjiu.
Mu Lingjiu looked at the two of them with a cold and distant look.
The two people who were running happily suddenly lost their confidence and their smiles became awkward.
"Lingjiu, what a coincidence! What do you want for this Tianhai Banquet?" Mu Lingfeng tried to look calm and looked at Mu Lingjiu with a smile.
Mu Lingjiu raised his eyes.
"It has nothing to do with you."
Such a cold remark, the two of them couldn't even keep up their fake smiles anymore.
I know that Mu Lingjiu doesn't like them, but I didn't expect him to dislike them so much. Mu Lingjiu must be extremely disgusted with them now, right?
The two of them felt uncomfortable, but they were also able to accept this disgust because they all knew that Mu Lingjiu's disgust was caused by them.
How much Mu Lingjiu liked them in the past!
It's all their fault!
After the two exchanged glances, Mu Lingxiong said, "Lingjiu, you are our sister. Whether you recognize us or not, we all think the same way in our hearts. If you want something, we brothers will help you get it. You can tell us."
Mu Lingjiu had never asked them for anything before, it was always them who asked Mu Lingjiu.
Now Mu Lingjiu naturally has no habit of relying on them.
In Mu Lingjiu's view, they were all strangers, no, they were enemies.
"I'm still too nice to you. That's why you dare to talk nonsense in front of me."
These words froze the two men's flattering expressions again.
When had they ever been so humble to Mu Lingjiu?
They used to be very harsh towards Mu Lingjiu, but only towards Mu Tianxue did they adopt this attitude.
After they learned that Mu Lingjiu had saved them, their feelings slowly changed.
However, Mu Lingjiu's indifference now made the two of them feel angry.
Mu Lingxiong couldn't help but say, "We came here to repair our relationship with you, don't you..."
Having said this, Mu Lingfeng stopped Mu Lingxiong, fearing that he would say something unpleasant next.
