Chapter 286 Godsend
"Teacher, when you say longevity, do you mean immortality?" Lan Xin felt that her heartbeat had slowed down by half a beat, and she asked expectantly.
"Immortality? You are a little kid who is not even ten years old, and you want to live forever?"
The great sage nodded Lan Xin's head vigorously as he spoke, but he didn't look sulky.
Lan Xin smiled sheepishly, winked mischievously, and said, "Teacher, I'm just asking casually, uh, haha..."
"Xin'er, do you think immortality means immortality?" the great sage suddenly asked seriously.
Lan Xin replied matter-of-factly: "Yes, immortality and immortality are usually mentioned together!"
"Oh, no wonder other people think so too." The great sage sighed, his expression a little gloomy.
Lan Xin also realized that the teacher was feeling a little heavy, so she didn't dare to smile anymore and returned to her serious expression.
"Teacher, could it be that the death of our Jade Qilin clan has something to do with immortality?" Lan Xin asked tentatively.
In her view, many emperors, generals and ministers in previous lives were addicted to elixirs and various spiritual sustenances in pursuit of immortality, to the point of harming their own lives.
And since today's world is a world of cultivation, immortality does not seem to be impossible.
Isn’t the path of cultivation just going against nature?
There was a glint in the Great Sage's eyes, as if someone had stabbed him in a painful spot, and he exuded an evil spirit.
Lan Xin also understood that she seemed to have guessed the truth by mistake, so she said calmly: "Teacher, this disciple is now under your sect and is a member of the Yu Qilin clan. From now on, we are in the same boat through thick and thin, sharing weal and woe. As for
Let’s explore the road to immortality together.”
The Great Sage nodded slightly, shook his folding fan, and revealed a picture of the stars and the sea dotted with silver light on the fan, and smiled freely.
"Okay, since Xin'er you have the ambition to pursue immortality, I will tell you what immortality is. Originally, I had to wait until you reach adulthood to tell you this."
Lan Xin bent down and saluted: "Disciple, I am all ears."
"In this continent, cultivators are undoubtedly a privileged class, not only because of their extraordinary strength, but also because they live longer than ordinary people."
"Ordinary people are busy all their lives trying to survive. Due to the threats of irresistible natural disasters and various diseases, the average life expectancy is only fifty years."
"As for us cultivators, as long as we reach the Qi Condensation stage, we can always have a strong body and abundant mental power. Once we reach the Golden elixir stage, our appearance will last forever, and our average life span can reach one hundred years."
"If there is a chance to reach the Xiantian realm, then various potentials will be developed, and the life span can reach one hundred and fifty years."
The Great Sage explained patiently, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
When Lan Xin heard this, she also looked excited, and immediately asked: "Teacher, didn't you tell us about the immortality technique of our Jade Qilin clan? Then do we have a chance to live forever?"
"Xin'er, immortality is not what you think, or maybe the final state of immortality is what you think. It's just that we don't have the power to truly realize immortality yet."
Seeing that Lan Xin kept mentioning this, the Great Sage just continued to explain.
"Then what exactly do you mean by immortality? Since it is not the immortality that everyone is pursuing, then why do we, the Jade Qilin clan..."
Lan Xin also couldn't understand, if this immortality was not the other one, why would he be coveted and suffer a catastrophe?
"The temple of our Yu Qilin clan is called the Palace of Eternal Life. It contains the clan's most precious holy spring, but because the quantity is limited, it cannot be opened to the public."
"The holy spring is originally obtained by the holy master of our clan using his own soul, with the help of the power of the stars and the power of faith, and using secret methods. It has miraculous effects on consolidating the foundation and protecting the soul, and extending lifespan, but it has been used by malicious people to spread rumors about me.
The clan has the art of immortality, which has led to the death of the clan and the destruction of the temple..."
The Great Sage Master talked about the past with a calm face, but suddenly his tone became louder: "Xin'er, I want you to remember that the art of immortality was not created by practitioners, and it has no real effect of immortality, it can only extend your life span a little.
That’s all.”
"Teacher, disciple, please remember. Immortality does not exist." Lan Xin nodded. Although she was a little disappointed, she did not dare to show other emotions.
"As mentioned before, the art of immortality was created for the hundreds of millions of scholars in the world."
"Since most ordinary people do not have spiritual roots and cannot practice, this technique traps the power of Jade Kirin's faith in the jade."
"A talented person wears jade like this, studies, and becomes famous all over the world."
"Jade articles also evolve as the wearer's talents grow, so that they can master some life-saving abilities and prolong life..."
Lan Xin couldn't help but get excited as she listened, and her face became flushed.
As we all know, people without spiritual roots and souls can basically become ordinary people. This is a tragedy that the innate spiritual roots are insufficient and the acquired souls are unable to cultivate.
Unexpectedly, the ancestors of the Yu Qilin clan had such foresight and great talent, and actually created the art of immortality!
Although it is about cultivating talents, which child does not start reading and writing at the age of four or five?
As long as you read and read, you can cultivate your talents. Although your talent may have some influence, this is already a God-given opportunity!
Lan Xin then thought about it again. If ordinary people couldn't practice cultivation, their life span would be only forty or fifty years. Even if she was in a high position or rich in the world, what kind of regret would she have for the rest of her life?
And this art of immortality can really be said to be the warm sun in winter, the cool breeze in summer, and an oasis in the sand for these ordinary people who cannot practice...
How many ordinary people are there in the world who cannot practice cultivation?
How many talented people without spiritual roots are there in the world?
How many people in the world can read and write?
Well, thinking of the last point, Lan Xin suddenly felt a little ashamed: "Teacher, you mean that the art of immortality is about cultivating talent. It seems that anyone who can read and write can practice it. However, the number of academies in Tianlong Kingdom seems to be limited, and the books are also expensive.
Like cattle and sheep, there should be many illiterates among ordinary people, right?"
"Our Qilin Holy Lord has always been respected by emperors from all over the world. With the help of the imperial power, he has built many academies in this continent to enlighten the people's wisdom and seek immortality."
The Great Sage put away his folding fan and stood proudly.
Lan Xin was really convinced now.
With the help of his erudition, he gained the trust of the emperors of various countries. Opening a college, such a move that benefited the country and the people, naturally won the support of the court and the people.
Since the beginning of enlightenment, both ordinary people and practitioners have been cultivating their talents, wearing jade articles issued by the academy, and practicing the art of immortality.
And the power of faith provided by hundreds of millions of scholars will naturally feed back the Jade Qilin family.
As for what the unimaginable benefits are, I am afraid only Holy Lord Qilin knows clearly.
Lan Xin suddenly understood the reason why the teacher had said so much in her dream tonight. Perhaps the teacher was worried that she would neglect her studies because of her cultivation.
The reason why the teacher told this is to remind her that reading, studying, cultivating talents, and practicing the art of immortality are also top priorities!
Lan Xin suddenly became enlightened, looked at the middle-aged woman standing proudly, and said: "Teacher, I understand. From now on, I will study hard and practice the art of immortality. I will not dare to slack off in studying anymore."
Who can resist the temptation of longevity and longevity?
"Hmm, if you understand the importance of reading, it's not in vain for me to spend so much time talking about it. Then, I will tell you about the Book of Rites again!" the great sage said with a smile.
Chapter completed!
