The Legendary Realm could no longer be cultivated, nor could it continue to oversee the 'Dao'.
It was precisely because of this that the four of them left the Peak of Sacred Mountain, and only then did the New Generation Seven Great Demon Saints come into being.
If they had lived forever, this structure would naturally have been passed down without end.
Unfortunately, lifespans would eventually run dry. Along with the approaching Great Limit, Stone Spirit Ancestor and Venerable Black Bird were the first to waver. Venerable Black Bird chose to leave, while Stone Spirit Ancestor decided to gamble everything on one last attempt.
He wanted to seize the Demon Race's 'Dao' to charge into the next realm, attempting to extend his lifespan through breaking through.
"You only need to hold Ancestor Gui back for an incense stick's time. Leave the rest to me."
Three days later, Chen Luo obtained the complete secret art from Stone Spirit Ancestor.
This secret art, "Demon Realm," gave him tremendous inspiration. Since the Legendary Realm could be used to extend one's lifespan, it could naturally also be used to improve one's cultivation. Nothing was absolute. The Legendary Realm was vast and boundless; wherever legends existed, Otherworldly Demons existed.
As long as Chen Luo could find the Legendary Realm he wanted, the remaining problems would be resolved as easily as splitting bamboo.
"Fine. After an incense stick's time, whether you succeed or fail, I'll leave."
Chen Luo sat down cross-legged where he was.
"Good."
Stone Spirit Ancestor's body melted away and fled toward the mountain peak.
Like Ancestor Gui, Stone Spirit Ancestor never appeared in his true body. These old fellows were more treacherous than the next—Venerable Black Bird, Ancestor Gui, the Great Sophora Tree—their methods were all the same.
Clones!
Nothing but clones.
