The Flaw in Their Lifespans

"Master Zhenyuan, there's something I don't understand!"

Li Shaojun became Zhang Xuezhou Zhang Xuezhou's little shadow, accompanying him as he wandered around admiring treasures. He would occasionally identify some antiques and receive some rewards in return.

Cai Ma then sought out Divine Lord Zhenyuan.

Her eyelids twitched repeatedly as she looked at Divine Lord Zhenyuan. The absolute difference in their cultivation levels made it difficult for Cai Ma to see Divine Lord Zhenyuan's state clearly, and she was even being stared at by Divine Lord Zhenyuan in the opposite direction.

"There are too many people and too much chatter here!"

Divine Lord Zhenyuan murmured something and then waved his hand to cast a spell.

Zhang Xuezhou and Li Shaojun could whisper and chat privately, but Cai Ma, who only cultivated the art of destiny, did not have such an ability.

Only after Divine Lord Zhenyuan cast his spell did the two feel comfortable communicating.

"What does the Holy Maiden wish to ask?" asked Divine Lord Zhenyuan.

"I would like to ask the Holy Son why he only cultivated one level of the Life Technique three months ago, and why he has six hundred years more lifespan when we meet again three months later," Cai Ma said.

Upon hearing Cai Ma's question, Divine Lord Zhenyuan felt a pang of heartache.

His escape from Western Kunlun is related to this.

The Heavenly Court's plan to extend lifespan was successful. Divine Lord Zhenyuan broke through the limitations of life techniques with the help of the Longevity Fruit, while Zhang Xuezhou cultivated to the limit of his cultivation in one go.

This lifespan is unstable; Divine Lord Zhenyuan even suspects that the lifespan they have acquired will collapse at some point.

But no one would listen to Divine Lord Zhenyuan's explanation of the problem. Many people only knew that he had extended his lifespan by 720 years and would seek every means to repeat it.

Before resolving his own problems, Divine Lord Zhenyuan clearly did not want to create any unexpected trouble.

He even sought to combine formations and Law Treasure artifacts to occupy a secret location to protect the Longevity Fruit Tree and prevent others from leaving.

Divine Lord Zhenyuan could stop Cai Ma from spying, but Zhang Xuezhou clearly couldn't prevent Cai Ma from recognizing him.

"Holy Maiden, did you make a mistake during your observation?" Divine Lord Zhenyuan asked in a low voice.

"That's impossible!" Cai Ma said. "I counted the lifespan halos on the Holy Son's body; there are seven halos in total, corresponding to six hundred years of lifespan. There's no way I could have misread it!"

"You can see the Holy Son's lifespan halo?" Divine Lord Zhenyuan frowned.

"Yes, you can see it as soon as you open your eyes!"

"So that's the hidden trouble!"

When Cai Ma nodded in acknowledgment, Divine Lord Zhenyuan finally understood why he felt so uneasy about the lifespan he had gained, always feeling that his foundation was not solid.

Normally, when a cultivator's life-extending aura penetrates deep into their body, it becomes deeply bound to the body.

Zhang Xuezhou's current situation is that the aura of destiny-telling is manifesting, and this aura undoubtedly has an effect and will also have the effect of prolonging life.

However, this situation has a fatal weakness: some Technique Method can be used to selectively remove the elixir, thus obtaining a longevity elixir after it has been refined.

This is not an isolated case, but rather a situation that has occurred in the past.

After Zhang Xuezhou, who had a lifespan of six hundred years, was refined into an elixir, it would be no problem to extend the lifespan of others by two hundred years.

There are not many people who practice the art of destiny, and very few people can see the aura of destiny. Even Divine Lord Zhenyuan does not have this ability. However, as long as the news leaks out, they will undoubtedly become a mobile elixir of longevity.

"Oh no!"

Zhang Xuezhou couldn't withstand this kind of torment, and neither could Divine Lord Zhenyuan.

Those who seek longevity are all old monsters, people with profound cultivation and powerful Technique Method.

Divine Lord Zhenyuan can ignore many people, but he cannot withstand a relentless battle or the combined attack of top-tier cultivators.

"The situation is so dangerous, how can I resolve this potential problem as soon as possible!"

When Divine Lord Zhenyuan didn't have longevity, he longed for it. But after gaining longevity, he still had to protect it. This situation made it difficult for him to remain calm and composed.

You must not tell this to any third party!

Divine Lord Zhenyuan was certain that his true nature could not be seen through by ordinary people, but Zhang Xuezhou was indeed a weak point.

If any information leaks out, he can most likely confirm that the incident occurred on Zhang Xuezhou's side.

He didn't have a good way to get rid of the trouble at the moment, so he could only tell Cai Ma not to talk nonsense.

"The Holy Son's lifespan is short, so he can only quickly master the art of life through clever methods. His lifespan is currently in some trouble, so you must not speak carelessly and spoil his mindset," Divine Lord Zhenyuan said solemnly.

"How can the art of destiny be mastered quickly?" Cai Ma asked, puzzled. "The Holy Son didn't specifically cultivate the art of destiny, so how did he reach the stage of Divine Ability destiny techniques?"

"The Holy Son's technique is very special, and only something special could catch the Emperor's eye!"

Divine Lord Zhenyuan took a deep breath, feeling the effects of Zhang Xuezhou's Grain Avoidance Divine Ability spreading to many places.

This not only made the effects of the Grain Avoidance Divine Ability exceed his own, but also promoted the Divine Ability of the flying technique, and even led to the entry of the life technique into the Divine Ability.

Not to mention Cai Ma being trapped in the Divine Ability Realm, even Divine Lord Zhenyuan stumbled in the Divine Ability Realm's life techniques, only managing to overcome the difficulty by using the Longevity Fruit to fill the gap.

If Cai Ma were to Divine Ability the art of life-saving techniques and elevate his cultivation to a level comparable to theirs, the other party's lifespan extension would inevitably surpass that of Divine Lord Zhenyuan, similar to the difference between Zhang Xuezhou and Divine Lord Zhenyuan in their Grain Avoidance Technique.

Even though Cai Ma's life-destiny technique had never reached the Divine Ability, he already possessed an ability different from Divine Lord Zhenyuan, capable of discerning the aura of life-destiny techniques.

"I can't think of any special life technique that could allow him to reach the Divine Ability Realm," Cai Ma said.

"The art of fate cultivation a thousand years ago was merely one aspect of cultivation; there are countless people who possess the fate cultivation techniques of the Divine Ability Realm," said Divine Lord Zhenyuan. "You have the aptitude for cultivating fate cultivation techniques, and he also possesses some special talents!"

"Another natural talent!"

Cai Ma lowered his head dejectedly.

Divine Lord Zhenyuan offered many explanations, but they seemed to have little effect.

Talent truly needs no explanation; the other person simply possesses this extraordinary ability, and there's no reason to explain it.

The only consolation for Cai Ma was that the lifespan granted by this quick-fix life-saving technique was flawed and would likely need adjustment, which made Cai Ma feel somewhat better.

"Don't talk nonsense, no one is allowed to talk nonsense, not even the Holy Son," Divine Lord Zhenyuan warned.

"I'm not making this up. I only chatted with Young Master Li a couple of times when I came to the Marquis's residence," Cai Ma said sullenly.

"Li Shaojun?"

Divine Lord Zhenyuan felt a slight chill in his heart.

Cai Ma and Zhang Xuezhou's time together was so short that it was completely insignificant.

But Divine Lord Zhenyuan didn't expect that in such a short time, Cai Ma would actually have nothing better to do than tell Zhang Xuezhou's fortune, and even communicate with Li Shaojun.

The group originated from the Kunlun Sacred Land, and they could discuss matters among themselves. However, Li Shaojun was an outsider, making it more difficult for them to negotiate.

After spending some time with Li Shaojun, Divine Lord Zhenyuan had a general understanding of Li Shaojun's character, and he only felt that the other party was a troublesome person.

"Li Shaojun has a status in Chang'an City. If I kill him with a slap, the Holy Son might be implicated because of my actions, and his future in Chang'an City will be difficult. If I don't kill Li Shaojun, given his despicable character, he will surely harbor evil intentions and plot against the Holy Son, which could potentially affect me!"

Divine Lord Zhenyuan hesitated for a moment, glancing repeatedly at Li Shaojun, who was following Zhang Xuezhou, as he weighed the pros and cons.

As a member of the Kunlun Sacred Land Sacred Land, Divine Lord Zhenyuan is known for his good character, not only for his outstanding talent but also for his hard work and dedication.

However, when faced with a threat, Divine Lord Zhenyuan will also use the simplest method available in the Sacred Land to resolve it.

He pondered for a moment and finally concluded that Li Shaojun had overheard something he shouldn't have, and only death could prevent the news from leaking prematurely.
