As night fell, Lin Heng, led by the little boy Chang Qiong, arrived at a small mountain village.
Yes, the Longevity Realm also has day and night.
There is a Great Yang Star in the sky during the day, and a Great Yin Star at night.
However, the Great Yang Star and Great Yin Star in the Longevity Realm are different from those in the God Realm and also different from those in the Heavenly Gate World.
They hang high in the sky, and the radiance they cast contains a very special energy.
The small mountain village is called Chang Village.
All the male villagers share the surname Chang.
The village chief's name was Chang Deguang, and he was indeed at the God King Realm, making him the most powerful person in the entire Chang Village.
Chang Qiong led Lin Heng to the courtyard of Chang Deguang's house.
At the same time, he handed over the several demonic beasts that Lin Heng had hunted to Chang Deguang.
Chang Qiong is an orphan, and with the help of Chang Deguang, he needs to exchange the spoils of his hunting for the supplies he needs for living and cultivation.
There is an old tree at the entrance of the small courtyard, and its trunk requires more than twenty adults to encircle it!
It is not very tall, but it has lush foliage.
Chang Qiong had mentioned this old tree to Lin Heng; it was the Sacrificial Spirit of Chang Village.
The so-called Sacrificial Spirit is actually a powerful ancestor of Chang Village who imbued his will and power into something.
Sacrificial Spirit can be a living being, like the old tree in Chang Village.
It can also be a non-living entity, such as a stone statue.
Cultivators below the Saint Realm cannot retain their own willpower, so the combat power that the Sacrificial Spirit can exert is not weak.
"So you're a senior from the Supreme Saint Realm! Please, have a seat!"
Chang Deguang was very warm and respectful.
"Thank you for sitting!"
Lin Heng sat down calmly and said frankly, "To be honest, I just ascended from the God Realm. The village chief should know about the God Realm, right?"
"Yes, of course I know!"
Chang Deguang nodded, "I've read a lot about the God Realm in the ancient texts left by our ancestors! It's said that the God Realm is much larger than the Longevity Realm!"
"I just ascended to this Longevity Realm and don't know much about it, so I asked Chang Qiong to bring me here so I can learn more about the Longevity Realm."
Lin Heng said.
"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you, senior!"
Chang Deguang said, "Our entire village, including myself, has always lived in these mountains and forests, and we don't know much about the vast Longevity Realm."
"But it's definitely more than I know!"
Lin Heng smiled and said, "I humbly request the village chief to tell me everything he knows, whether it's useful or not!"
"No problem!"
Chang Deguang naturally wouldn't refuse, as he wouldn't dare displease a Supreme Saint expert.
Lin Heng listened to Chang Deguang recount the Longevity Realm throughout the night.
The Longevity Realm comprises Nine Heavens Ten Regions!
The Nine Heavens are above, the Ten Regions are below!
The Ten Regions, simply put, are ten vast regions.
The mountain forest where Chang Village is located is in the Spirit Radiance Region of the Ten Regions.
The so-called Nine Heavens, also known as the Ninefold Heaven, are all higher than the last!
It is said that one must reach the Nirvana Realm to ascend to the Ninefold Heaven.
The true powerhouses in the Longevity Realm refer to those at the Supreme Saint Realm or above, most of whom reside in the Ninefold Heaven.
Coming down from the Ninefold Heaven is easy, but ascending to the Ninefold Heaven from the Ten Regions is much more difficult.
Normally speaking--
The cultivators who ascend from the God Realm are almost all at the Peak Supreme Saint. They can attempt to reach the Longevity Realm not long after arriving in the Nirvana Realm.
Lin Heng, Liu Ling'er, and the others were the same.
The difference is that other Ascenders spend a very long time in the God Realm, especially during the cultivation stage of the Supreme Saint Realm, which often takes tens of millions of years, or even more than hundreds of millions of years!
Their accumulated knowledge and experience are very profound, and their foundation is extremely solid.
When they arrive in the Longevity Realm, it will be like a dragon entering the sea; with all their shackles removed, they will experience a period of explosive growth in their cultivation.
Lin Heng and the others were different. Their cultivation speed in the God Realm was too fast. When they arrived in the Longevity Realm, they did not have the experience of being freed from many constraints, and their cultivation level did not increase rapidly.
Fortunately for Lin Heng, the sign -in Sign-In System to him did not expire in the Longevity Realm and could still be used!
He checked in at Chang Deguang's house and received a system reward.
However, the system reward was only an ordinary holy item, not worth mentioning.
Lin Heng mentioned Taiji Heavenly Venerable, but unfortunately Chang Deguang's cultivation level was too low and his knowledge was limited, so he had never heard of Taiji Heavenly Venerable.
Chang Deguang could only know from the ancient texts left by his ancestors that the powerful beings in the Longevity Realm who could be called Heavenly Venerable were all overlords of the Nine Heavens Ten Regions.
The sky outside was gradually brightening.
"Senior, that's all I know!"
Chang Deguang said, "If you want to know more, senior, you can go to Heavenly Defense City, which is about 20,000 miles to the east, to inquire!"
"Okay, thanks!"
Lin Heng gave the sacred item he had received from signing in here to Chang Deguang as a token of his gratitude for his hospitality.
Chang Deguang accepted it with immense gratitude.
Just as Lin Heng was about to leave, he heard screams coming from outside the courtyard.
"Grandpa Village Chief, something terrible has happened!"
Chang Qiong rushed into the house, his face filled with panic, and said, " The Spirit-Hunting Bandits are here!"
"Ah?"
Chang Deguang was shocked and puzzled, asking, "Didn't we just pay tribute to them? What are they doing here?"
"Grandpa Village Chief, it's not that group of Spirit-Hunting Bandits, it's a different group!"
Chang Qiong replied.
Everyone in Chang Village knows that the Spirit-Hunting Bandits are a group of bandits who specialize in hunting down Sacrificial Spirit!
Their strength is extremely powerful, and many of them are Saint Realm or even Great Saint Realm experts!
The villagers in each village were no match for them and could only rely on the Sacrificial Spirit.
Some mountain villages or strongholds have powerful Sacrificial Spirit that Spirit-Hunting Bandits dare not provoke, but these villages or strongholds also need to pay tribute to the Spirit-Hunting Bandits, otherwise they may be attacked by the Spirit-Hunting Bandits once they leave the protection range of the Sacrificial Spirit.
The Sacrificial Spirit of Chang Village is not particularly powerful; it can only display the combat strength of an ordinary Saint Realm cultivator.
"Another batch?"
Chang Deguang immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
Generally, a group of Spirit-Hunting Bandits will control an area and will not allow other Spirit-Hunting Bandits groups to enter the area they control.
Since a new batch has been introduced, it proves that the original group of Spirit-Hunting Bandits has been defeated!
In other words, this Spirit-Hunting Bandits is even stronger!
"Hahaha... This village's Sacrificial Spirit is alright; it's an old tree. You can absorb its energy essence and even use it to forge Saint Artifact!"
The Spirit-Hunting Bandits had already stormed into Chang Village, burst into loud laughter.
He led a large group of bandits to the gate of Chang Deguang's small courtyard and surrounded the Sacrificial Spirit tree.
The Sacrificial Spirit has also been awakened!
It radiated holy light, and its branches stretched out, clearly preparing for a desperate fight!
"Don't make futile resistance. The Longevity Realm has no need for the weak, and protecting the weak is pointless!"
The bandit leader held a long knife and wore heavy armor, looking quite imposing.
Lin Heng walked out of the courtyard, looking indifferently at the group of Spirit-Hunting Bandits. "Even the weak have the right to survive. Instead of cultivating honestly, you bully the weak everywhere. You are the kind of people who shouldn't exist in the Realm of the Longevity Realm!"
