Chapter 18 Jianming

The seventieth birthday is an extremely important event for ordinary people. As long as there are conditions, a grand celebration ceremony will be held.

Mortals in Kyushu Realm generally do not live to be seventy years old. Starting from about fifty years old, their body functions will gradually begin to degrade. After sixty years old, the rate of degradation will be greatly accelerated. Those in the general sense

Long-lived old people only live to be in their sixties.

Anyone who can live to the age of seventy is either particularly good at keeping in good health, or has a special constitution with sufficient vitality. But regardless of whether he is good at keeping in good health or has a special constitution, as long as he cannot break through the barrier between acquired and innate, and cannot absorb the vitality of heaven and earth to replenish his own loss of vitality,

Seventy years old is almost the limit.

Throughout the ages, almost no mortals without any special features have been able to live to their eightieth birthday. In fact, even if you get the immortal elixir or practice the exercises, as long as you cannot break through the innate realm, you will still be "seventy years old".

”.

Wu Jie's brother Wu Chenggong took the life-extending elixir, but he only lived to his early seventies. The elixir could not extend his life, but could only make him healthier, free from illness and disaster, and live a stable life.

Just over seventy years old.

When Wu Hou of Zhaoyang County, the head of the important ministers of the Chu Kingdom, passed away, there was no vision or any pain and struggle. He was sitting in the small courtyard outside the study room of the Hou Mansion, and his younger brother used his hands instead of his own power to carefully

Sitting on the made wicker chair, basking in the warm sunshine of the autumn afternoon, I smiled and watched my great-grandson studying seriously in the study.

Smiling, the smile faded from his face, leaving only calm serenity.

His funeral was as simple as he was as a person and followed the Wu family's tradition.

It's not about showing luxury in a low-key manner, nor is it about being simple but not simple. It's just like an ordinary person, being simple, plain and peaceful.

After Wu Cheng died, he was buried in the Wuhou Cemetery. In the cemetery, in addition to the old Wuhou and his wife, there was also his eldest son Wu Yin.

Wu Yin, whose courtesy name was Zhizheng, was born when Wu Cheng was twenty-one years old, but died before his father.

Throughout his life, he followed the example of his uncle, Lin Lushan, who was diligent, loving the people, self-denying and dedicated to the public, and had an outstanding reputation. However, this diligence also greatly damaged his body, making him fall ill at a young age.

Of course Wu Jie also brought him the elixir, but the elixir was not omnipotent after all. Zhizheng was originally only an average person, so the reason why he was able to achieve results that made ordinary geniuses look at him was because of convenience.

It’s the word diligence.

His diligence has long exceeded the limit that the mortal body can bear. Even with the help of elixir, it can only alleviate his pain, but it cannot allow him to live a long life like his father.

Wu Chizheng, the second generation Ji Shihou, finally passed away before the age of fifty. He left behind a Zhaoyang County that remained stable and prosperous even in the terrible drought, and became a beautiful story in Kyushu.

But who could have known that behind that extraordinary prosperity was an ordinary mortal who burned himself crazily, almost like a candle in pure oxygen, to maintain it?

The third generation of Ji Shihou was succeeded by Wu Cheng's eldest grandson. Wu Jie deliberately forgot the name of this junior, just as he deliberately forgot the name of the contemporary emperor of Chu.

He has too many entanglements with the world, and when it's time to let go, he should let go.

He brought the beginning of prosperity to the Wu family and maintained this prosperity for decades, which was enough; he helped the Chu Kingdom survive several crises, which was enough.

Wu Jie's relatives and friends in the world, those who were a little familiar with him, have gradually aged and died. Those who can still maintain friendship with him are practitioners who are as transcendent as he is over time.

He does not need to deliberately cut off the earthly bond, time will naturally help him cut it off. Even if he wants to continue to maintain the earthly bond, it is impossible.

Yin Shuang once tried to maintain her earthly relationship. She came to the mortal world of Tianwaitian more than once to help her family in the earth live a happy and stable life, help them solve all kinds of troubles, and deal with all kinds of things.

enemy.

With her help, those originally useless mortals gained power and status far beyond their abilities. They were extravagant and tyrannical, and they even dared to challenge the superior immortals - because their backers were more powerful.

of immortals.

But in the end, they still cannot escape the power of time.

When death comes, they are angry, they are afraid, and they cry. They are reluctant to part with their enjoyment in the world, their glory, wealth, and power.

They cursed their enemies because they made them worry; they cursed the people under their rule because Baixin distracted them; they even cursed Yin Shuang, who brought them power and status, because Yin Shuang made them feel at ease.

"Why can you live forever, but we must die of old age!" They were hysterical and roared for no reason.

But... none of this makes sense.

Bin Lin, the leader of the blood sect who has even reached the sixth level of Dan Restored, can't resist death. How can a group of mere mortals do it?

Even...their prosperity, their power and status, and their extravagant and lustful life could not continue.

After the Star Reaching Battle, Yin Shuang made a great contribution. Before his death, Binlin ignored the pain and used extremely cruel and terrifying methods to drain the remaining true energy from his body and refine it into a blood orb as a countermeasure.

her reward.

Yin Shuang understands what he means - although her strength has far exceeded her own cultivation level, her Taoism is too low after all. With such cultivation, whether it is to deal with the strife within the Demon Sect or to resist

The general attack that righteousness will launch sooner or later will not be enough.

So after getting the Blood Soul Bead, she immediately began to retreat and concentrate on absorbing the power of the Blood Soul Bead.

She stayed in seclusion for two full years, missing Bin Lin's funeral, missing Old Man Tianyan's enthronement ceremony, and missing the distress signal from her family.

When she came out of seclusion, she discovered that her family had long been wiped out - they had accumulated too much hatred in that area and provoked too many enemies. Eventually, these hatreds broke out, and their enemies united and launched an attack on them.

.

The battle did not last long. The Yin family, which had no support at all, was easily destroyed. Everyone from the elderly to the babies was spared. Even the tower, which symbolized power and status, once made countless people yearn for peace.

The fearful mansions were burned to the ground.

"It was my instruction." When Yin Shuang asked Old Man Tianyan, the new blood sect leader smiled and said, "This is not for fun, but to help you."

"Girl, you have too many worries in the world, which is not a good thing." He smiled kindly, without any hint of malice, "So I helped you completely cut off the worldly ties, you don't need to thank me, this is what a master should do

things."

Yin Shuang was stunned, and then sighed helplessly.

What can she do?

When she complained to Wu Jie, Wu Jie could only smile bitterly with her.

"Actually, earthly ties are bound to be broken." He told his situation, hoping to make Yin Shuang feel better. "All we can do is accept it silently."

Of course Yin Shuang understands this truth, but facing those hateful guys from the Demon Sect, she just can't think about it calmly.

Seeing Wu Jie's gentle smile, she calmed down.

"you're right--"

Before she could finish speaking, she frowned and looked in a certain direction.

At this moment, no matter they were in the human world or the underworld, Kyushu or Heaven, whether they were decent or demonic, all those who were good at swordsmanship frowned and looked in that direction.

A clear sword cry came from there, resounding in their hearts.
