Time is like a knife, cutting into Xuan Yue's body, turning a high-spirited half-immortal into a decrepit old man in just an instant.

The changes were so fast that no one could clearly see what he looked like in middle age, and Xuan Yue's sixty years only stayed for a moment, and the next second he entered the age of octogenarians.

"How could it be so? How could it be so?"

Xuan Yue's eyes widened and she murmured to herself, her tongue and lips trembling slightly, her hoarse old voice full of unspeakable fear.

He was like a leaky bottle at the moment, his longevity disappearing at a very fast speed.

But he already has a long lifespan, and his body and soul are flawless. They will not age with time, and they will always exist as long as there is a breath of spiritual energy. There is no lifespan limit, so how can he grow old?

The semi-immortal path is divided into the combined path and enlightenment. The former is to practice the path that already exists in the world, similar to the four images and five elements, one of which can lead to immortality. The latter is to walk out of the path that does not exist in the world, such as the sword master who became an immortal not long ago.

Whether it is Hedao or Enlightenment, they only describe the necessary conditions for becoming an immortal. For example, to become an immortal, you need to pick up a vast ocean. If you can hold the immortal water with your hands, you will need a container. If not, you need a container.

Semi-immortality is the process of making containers, in which they will acquire the qualities of immortals.

The great road manifests and comprehends the law, the immortal body and the immortal soul gain endless longevity, and a dojo is established to connect the two into one.

"senior."

As Gu Wen's words came to his lips, he saw that Xuan Yue's transformation was not over yet. His yellowed teeth began to fall out one by one, and his mouth became wrinkled due to gum recession.

On the Temple of Heaven, Chi Ling turned around and stared at Xuan Yue's changes below with wide eyes. In a cold voice with a hint of fear, he said, "Are you in a longevity tribulation?"

"Impossible! The poor Taoist has transcended longevity, how can he still have longevity tribulation!"

Xuan Yue seemed to be touched, her voice suddenly rose, and her originally low and magnetic voice became sharp.

He clenched his fists and waved his arms, half of the sleeves of his ill-fitting clothes fell off due to his atrophied body, and his exposed old skin made him even more miserable.

"Someone must have put a curse on this poor man! Wait until I use the rejuvenation technique, and then look for traces of witchcraft and evil!"

While roaring, Xuan Yue closed her hands, and the magic power surged in her body, as if the water of thousands of miles of ocean was rolling.

Without Gu Wen's need to react, Ao Tang had already coerced everyone and fled out of the cave. Standing at the entrance and looking over from a distance, he could see the spiritual energy fluctuations caused by the escape of mana stirring the void, and the hurricane winds making it difficult for people to stand still.

Xuan Yue exerted her half-immortal power with all her strength, but the aftermath alone made it difficult for them to resist.

Gu Wen was able to get a glimpse of the power of the half-immortal. This was no longer a pure power gap, they were not on the same level.

But such a powerful half-immortal is like a drowning grasshopper at this moment.

If you don't become a semi-immortal, you will end up as an ant?

He thought of Xuan Yue's words inexplicably, and now it seemed that even half-immortals were not so transcendent.

"Second ancestor, something bad happened."

Ao Tang's old voice came, and Gu Wen turned around and saw that the donkey was also showing its age, but because it was not in human form, it was difficult to tell how old it was.

"Dragon protector, are you okay?"

Gu Wen's concern was genuine, and Ao Tang helped him a lot, taking him out of danger many times.

Ao Tang shook his head and said: "It's okay. I am an innate being, but due to the damage to my foundation in the early years, I am unable to go any further. Now that the longevity tribulation has come, my lifespan has been greatly reduced, but I still have thousands of years left to live."

Gu Wen asked again: "What is the longevity tribulation?"

"A major catastrophe occurs once every 10,000 years for half-immortals, usually thunder catastrophes, five elements tribulations, seven star tribulations, six union tribulations, etc. Together they are called three disasters, nine disasters and ten disasters, among which longevity is one disaster. It is extremely rare throughout the ages, but every time

Its appearance can make the heaven and earth go crazy."

Ao Tang lay down as if tired, and spoke again: "Shouyuan is divided into human life and natural life. Heavenly life is the maximum limit, and human life is the small limit. Big changes are difficult, small changes are easy. In the end, practice is for longevity, so there is a way to extend life in heaven and earth.

There are so many fafa.”

"Above the Mahayana, the Taoist realm has the ability to change destiny against the will of heaven. One point of life span is very useful, and six thousand years of life span can live for more than ten thousand years. Today's world is also a great age of longevity, and life span is not

It’s missing, so you can see so many old things still active.”

Hearing this, Gu Wen's thoughts were sharp and he had already understood most of it. He said: "The longevity tribulation has set a limit. Human lifespan can no longer exceed Tianshou?"

"That's right, so that Xuan Yue's life span has been greatly reduced. If there is no other means, I'm afraid he won't live long. Haha, why don't he become a half-immortal and end up as an ant? He thinks he has transcended longevity, but his true colors are revealed when the catastrophe comes."

Ao Tang's weak voice was full of sarcasm and ridicule. He had long been unhappy with Xuan Yue.

"One more thing, be careful of Xuan Yue. If you are too old to die, you are a thief. The older the powerful, the crazier they are."

As soon as she finished speaking, the situation ahead changed color. Xuan Yue recited the mantra and stepped forward, as if after reciting some kind of mantra, she suddenly pointed her finger towards the center of her eyebrows.

"The energy comes into my body and sinks back into the ocean. Give me life and come back quickly!"

In a moment, Xuan Yue's face gradually changed, her white hair turned green, her wrinkles disappeared, and her skin was like jade.

alright?

Everyone stretched their necks slightly, and Gu Wen suddenly noticed a chill in his waist. The cold air filled the Qiankun Bag, and the Taiyin Order made by Xuan Tie was emitting a faint light.

He didn't have time to think about the reason for the change, because Xuan Yue changed again, and a touch of paleness passed through his hair like pen and ink.

The next moment, his six-foot body also began to shrink, and his waist slowly bent down.

In an instant, he turned into an old man again, and became even older.

Getting old again.

"How could it be so? How could it be so?"

Xuan Yue asked in a low and hoarse voice. He arched his waist, holding the wrinkled face with both hands, his fingers sunk into the flesh, and then pulled suddenly!

Tear!

The skin and flesh are tightened and the wrinkles disappear, but it still looks like an old face.

“How could this happen!!!”

The roar shook the heavens and the earth, and Xuan Yue looked up to the sky like a madman and screamed. He pulled at his face, as if he wanted to pull out the wrinkles.

But when he put down his hands again, everyone saw only deeper folds, and Gu Wen inexplicably thought of the Shar-Pei.

The roar echoed in the cave sky, and finally became quiet. Everyone remained silent and did not dare to make a sound.

It's so ugly. The half-immortal who was so high-spirited before has become like a dying old dog in the blink of an eye.

As a result, everyone including Gu Wen felt a chill down their spines, and at the same time they all expressed their desire for immortality and immortality.

Although the sword of time has not struck them, they may do the same one day in the future. Gu Wen can vaguely understand why some people would cross tens of thousands of years and abandon all their relatives and friends to travel far away.

Just for the sake of becoming an immortal.

If you don't become a fairy, you will end up as an ant.

It's just a little ridiculous that Xuan Yue said something wrong. She said "If you don't become a half-immortal, you will end up as an ant" and was immediately corrected by God. The dignified half-immortal now looks so embarrassed.

As a stronger person, Chi Ling didn't need to pay attention to Xuan Yue's feelings and said calmly: "Xuan Yue, is your longevity enough to become an immortal?"

"Chi! Ling!!"

Xuan Yue suddenly raised his head, the folds on his face swayed, his eyes were full of resentment, he bit his gums, and blood and saliva oozed from the corners of his mouth.

"Why don't you age? Your life span is the same as mine! This is not fair. This is not fair. Is it because of reincarnation?"

As he spoke, he looked back at Gu Wen and others, a wave of malice emerging.

The first to bear the brunt is Gu Wen. He has the best talent. If he can seize his body and become an immortal, it won't be a problem.

With the thought, Gu Wen's palms glowed slightly, but the fleeting glow made Xuan Yue give up the idea, but it was impossible for Gu Wen not to notice such naked malice.

He frowned and said: "Senior, please keep a line in your behavior. You are kind to me, but the kindness is not as great as this."

"If I don't take it from you, let the goddess give me the elixir of death."

"I'm afraid that won't work."

"If you owe someone a favor, you must repay it."

Xuan Yue was extremely sensitive and stared at Gu Wen closely, hoping to blackmail him through a little favor.

Gu Wen grinned and said: "The Goddess is kind to me for reincarnation, and the senior is also kind to me, but whichever is more important."

He is not a pedantic Confucian scholar. He can repay a favor, but he cannot borrow one dollar to repay a hundred dollars.

But after all, he is a semi-immortal, how could he become so miserable? Sure enough, the immortal spirit and spirit are all fake, and detachment from the secular world is mostly an illusion. Only becoming an immortal can be the real detachment.

Xuan Yue said sternly: "If I go away, the monsters from outside will attack. Can you guys handle it? Give me the roots of the elixir and I can help you block them. I remember you guys in Tianquan Mountain."

You should have obtained the elixir root."

In heaven and earth, there are many spiritual things that increase human life, but very few increase heavenly life.

So far, only the elixir can greatly extend the life span and reduce the difficulty of becoming an immortal. Previously, he didn't care much about the infinite life span. The elixir has too many causes and effects, and half-immortals may perish if they go too deep into it.

Gu Wen still shook his head, even if he didn't take the root of the elixir, he would not agree.

At this time, Xuan Yue was like a jackal, and it was impossible to feed her enough.

Xuan Yue's eyes were gloomy, she waved her sleeves and stepped out, disappearing from the spot.

Moving outside, he turned into a stream of light and headed towards the phantom of the fairy sword. Suddenly, a thousand-foot-long firebird also flew behind him.

The two looked at each other, both seeing the other's current state.

The Lord of Angrid Cave said: "Fellow Taoist, how about you and I joining forces to snatch the elixir together?"
