Chapter 159: Shou Yuan

A ten-thousand-year-old destiny that should never appear in the world in theory?

Hearing such a statement from the candle dragon, we were once again puzzled.

If the Mandate of Heaven refers to eternal life, then why shouldn't it appear in this world?

Putting aside the legendary immortals, just now around us, there are two existences that can completely refute this conclusion.

That's the Spring Pavilion and the Candle Dragon.

Although we are not completely clear about Chunting's previous experience, we already know that he had assumed the name of Li Jing and Li Weigong during the Tang Dynasty, and was ordered by the head of Guanshan to go out of the mountain to assist Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, to calm the world and stabilize the Tang Dynasty.

There is no doubt that although the Tang Dynasty has not been ten thousand years so far, the time span from the Tang Dynasty to the present is far from what a normal person can experience in his life, although we do not know how he survived to the present, but we can be sure that there must be some huge secrets in him.

At the same time, his lifespan must have long exceeded the limits of ordinary people's comprehension, otherwise he would never have left his figure in these two distant periods.

Undoubtedly, the candle dragon is even more so.

Although Chunting appeared long before the Tang Dynasty, as far as we know so far, he only began to walk the world during the Tang Dynasty, and we don't know anything about it before.

But there is no doubt that the era in which the candle dragon was born was a mythical era that was even more distant than the Tang Dynasty.

At that time, the power of cultivating to the heavens and moving mountains and reclaiming the sea abounded with a raise of hands, and many of the characters we heard from mythological stories were still in Shenzhou, where the world was full of talents.

But as the so-called white clouds and dogs, time is like an arrow, under the ruthless baptism of time, these legendary powers can not withstand the invasion of time, and now they have long ceased to exist, and the land of this Shenzhou has also entered the so-called era of the end of the law.

But the candle dragon still exists, and it appears alive in front of us.

Regardless of why those mythical beings disappeared, and how the candle dragon resisted the invasion of time and survived until now, we can draw an obvious conclusion from this incident alone.

That is, the lifespan of the candle dragon is also not eroded by time.

And since there are now two beings with unreasonable lifespans next to us, why would the candle dragon say that the so-called Mandate of Heaven should not have appeared in the world?

Is there any difference between this so-called ten-thousand-year-old destiny and the dependence of the two of them to survive until now?

"The reason why I have been able to survive until now is not because of the so-called Mandate of Heaven, but because when Emperor Yu created me, he spared no effort to use the power of creation to construct my body, so compared to other creatures, my lifespan can be said to be much longer."

When our eyes were patrolling back and forth between the candle dragon and the spring pavilion, the candle dragon spoke again and explained the reason for us unabashedly.

"But you must know that although I have existed for thousands of years, and there is no danger of running out of life in a short period of time, my lifespan is not infinite, and even if it is a long time, there will be a day when the oil will run out."

"As for his situation, it's actually a bit similar to mine, but there are a few differences."

After talking about his situation, the candle dragon looked at the spring pavilion and continued with deep meaning.

"I can have a long life, because before I was born, Emperor Yu constructed my body with the power of creation, so my life loss is almost negligible, if there is no accident, then even if it is another thousand years, I am far from the day when the oil runs out."

"But he's different, he's just been properly modified by the power of creation, and his body is still human, so his lifespan is longer than that of an ordinary human, but it's nowhere near as much as mine."

With the candle dragon's explanation, a hint of realization first appeared in everyone's expressions, and when they heard it, they all showed shock on their faces.

At the beginning, it was realized that we knew the reason why the Candle Dragon and the Spring Pavilion had survived until now, and since they had the blessing of that mysterious creative power, it had already been explained that they could have such a long lifespan.

And the final shock on his face was because of the source of Chunting's long life.

Candle Dragon was born in the age of mythology, he is the final product of Dayu's god-making plan, and it is precisely because Dayu has the power of god-making plan and creation, so the body of the candle dragon is constructed by Dayu with the power of creation It is reasonable, we do not feel half abnormal.

But Chunting is different.

The candle dragon has already confirmed to us, although there are slight differences, but the reason why Chunting has been able to survive until now is also due to the mysterious power of creation.

However, Chunting is by no means a creature of the mythological era, according to our previous guess, the time when he first appeared in this world was only the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

And we already know. The power of creation is extremely mysterious, except for the legendary Nuwa Niangniang and Dayu, for thousands of years, no one in the land of Shenzhou has ever had this special power.

That being the case, then under the premise that no one has this kind of power, who used the power of creation to transform the Spring Pavilion and give him such a long lifespan?

It seems that the secrets hidden in Chunting are far more complicated than we imagined before.

Since I can think of this, the others will naturally not ignore this issue, so at this moment, everyone's eyes are invariably looking at Chunting, wanting to hear him explain to us the true origin of his lifespan.

"You don't have to wonder who gave him his lifespan, and he will never tell you why it is now."

Obviously, the candle dragon with his eyes closed once again felt our curiosity at the moment, and for some reason, at this moment, he actually spoke slowly, and preemptively explained for Chun Ting, who was hesitant.

"Besides, this is not the point of the story, the reason why I mentioned this to you is just to let you know that our survival to this day does not mean that our lifespan is eternal, our lifespan is only longer than that of mortals, and sooner or later there will be a day when our life will run out and our lives will end."

"But the 10,000-year mandate of heaven obtained by Chi You is not the case, this 10,000-year mandate of heaven is the favor of the way of heaven, and the person who has this destiny is equivalent to the incarnation of the will of the way of heaven, not only can he live with heaven and earth, the sun and the moon with the same light, and even between his every move, it is enough to affect the original trajectory of the way of heaven."
