The Withered Body Feared Vitality

Chapter 93: The Withered Body Feared Vitality

"Mortal Descent was not merely a feeling, but a period that one would inevitably experience while cultivating the Twelve Longevity Method."

"When one's qi descended into the mortal world, it intertwined with all manner of karma. According to the experience gathered by Great Qian's cultivators, from this stage onward, one became increasingly likely to be dragged into the karma and tribulations of others."

Only after regulating his breath for a long while did Li Shun gradually adapt to this body that seemed newly reborn.

Noticing that Elder Mu seemed to glance in his direction, Li Shun's heart stirred. He spoke up to ask, "Elder Mu, the sealed earth of this Imperial Tomb is cut off from the outside world. By ordinary reasoning, if one kept hiding here, wouldn't one be able to avoid the tribulation of Heaven's Lifespan Demand?"

After ten years of rest, Elder Mu seemed to have recovered some strength.

He spoke lazily. "You brat, you're rather sharp. That's right. When Mu Wujiu built this tomb, he indeed intended to use it to ward off disaster. But later—"

"Perhaps he grew stronger and stronger, until he no longer needed the sealed earth of this Imperial Tomb."

Elder Mu gave a cold laugh.

"At first, he attached immense importance to the Imperial Tomb. He even paid an enormous price to invite a Daoist sage to design its layout."

"To build this tomb of his dreams, who knew how much manpower and material wealth he expended."

"Yet after all these years, this tomb never welcomed its true master and remained empty all this time. Brat, when you traveled through the sealed earth earlier, did you notice anything unusual about this world?" Elder Mu seemed exceptionally interested today, turning to ask Li Shun again.
