Hua Yunfei considered Ya Ya’s mysterious physique and ordered his disciples to protect her as he questioned the secrets surrounding the Ancient Divine Body.

• Hua Yunfei used the Chaos Bell, the Supreme Cauldron of the Pill Emperor, and the Bronze Compass to glimpse a distant battle, where a golden figure appeared to recognize him as his master.
• A terrifying force swept away the scene, and Hua Yunfei wondered whether contact with the Sage Body Ancestral Temple had entangled the universe in immense karma.
• Four months later, Hua Cangtian came to Daoyuan Peak to take Hua Cangqiong to the Ancestral Tomb and gave Hua Yunfei the Longevity Sutra.
• Hua Cangtian explained that the Longevity Sutra could extend lifespan, develop an Eternal Immortal Body, and gradually improve aptitude within the Ancestral Tomb.
• Hua Cangqiong eagerly imagined his aptitude improving, but Hua Cangtian warned him that even a supreme cultivation art depended on the cultivator.
