Chapter 1126: Spiritual Decay
Bundles of eyes containing surprise, shock, and incredulity converged, and all the disciples stared at Chu Chen as if they were looking at a god.
Chu Chen rubbed his temples and glanced at Feng Qiang.
Feng Qiang nodded, and then waved his hand vigorously at everyone.
"Okay, that's the end of today's puzzle solving for the senior brother, if you still have any questions, you can leave them for the next time you solve the puzzle. β
As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar.
Everyone had a lot of questions in their hearts because Chu Chen's expression was too amazing, and they couldn't wait to find out.
Now that they heard that this puzzle had been solved, many people felt extremely disappointed.
In the eyes of everyone's expectation, Chu Chen stood up directly from the stone chair and walked straight towards the outside of the hall
Many disciples even walked directly in front of Chu Chen, wanting to stop him and ask some more questions, but they were stopped and pushed away by Feng Qiang, who was quick-eyed.
"What's the hurry, Senior Brother will come again next time. If you have any other questions to ask, we will be there next time. β
In desperation, everyone had no choice but to accept this mention, but the shock brought to them by the new senior brother Chu Chen was far from over, and there was a sound of unfinished discussion in the book tower.
After leaving the Book Tower, Chu Chen walked straight towards the cave mansion in the middle of the pine sea.
However, before he entered the cave, his chest trembled, and the head of a red-haired mouse stretched out: "Boy, what did you say to that second senior brother just now? β
"Heh, I saved his life, and it is only natural that I should bear his kowtow. β
The corners of Chu Chen's mouth hooked, and he smiled lightly.
"What's the situation, what problem did he encounter?" Looking at Chu Chen's mysterious look, the little hamster's curiosity was aroused, and he hurriedly asked.
"The problem he encountered was that he had recently cultivated so much that he had not advanced but retreated, and no matter what method he used, it was useless. I used my spiritual sense to probe his cultivation and found that he had actually entered a state of 'spiritual decay'. β
"Decay?"
The little hamster asked in surprise, "He still looks very young, has he actually begun to fail?"
The so-called spiritual decay refers to the fact that when a monk has lived to a certain age, his body begins to fail and die from the source of spiritual power due to aging.
It is an irreversible state, as if mortals are dying of old age, sickness and death, a sign that the monk's life is coming to an end.
No one in the world can achieve immortality, even the legendary gods and goddesses have a day of decay and decay.
Although the life expectancy of monks is much higher than that of mortals because of their advanced cultivation, there is also a limit.
Generally speaking, mortals in the normal world will not live for more than a hundred years before dying of old age.
And after cultivating to the Lingxi realm, because the origin of life has been greatly broadened, he can live for about two hundred years.
Once the cultivation reaches the Cheng dΓΉ of the Spirit River Great Realm, then the life span of the monk will increase to at least three hundred years.
In the eyes of secular people, such a person is almost already a land immortal-level figure.
Of course, if it were some desolate alien species with the bloodline of ancient divine beasts, their lifespan would be unimaginably long, which was a talent.
And this second senior brother who crossed the void peak looked like he was in his thirties, and he didn't have the old appearance of those old monks at all, and such a person would actually have a weak spirit, which surprised the little hamster very much.
"How old did that Zhao Shi live?"
"I don't know, I can't tell his age, and I can't see through his cultivation at all. However, he has indeed begun to decline in spirit, and even the source of spiritual power in his body has begun to wither, obviously the limit has arrived, and he only has more than ten days of life at most. β
"And how did you help him with that?"
The little hamster's expression was undisguised, "That's a spiritual decline, it's basically irreversible, do you kid actually have a way to solve it?"
"There is no complete solution, but it is okay to alleviate it a little. β
Chu Chen smiled and shook his head, "Do you remember the mysterious old man in Tsing Yi in the Forest of the Medicine Palace? This mantra is so wonderful that it can reactivate the body's spiritual origin. So I passed it on to Zhao Shi, which should help him extend his life for a while. β
"I see. β
The little hamster nodded knowingly, "Speaking of which, that mantra is indeed very wonderful, and even Uncle Ben's knowledge doesn't know where that mantra came from." With the help of that mental method, this Zhao Shi can at least live for two or three months more. β
"Actually, he just needs to live one more month. β
Chu Chen said with a smile, "A month later will be the time to awaken once in a hundred years to cross the Void Peak. When the time comes, Duxu Peak will be activated, and a large amount of spiritual power containing the breath of life will be washed away, which should be able to improve his spiritual decay and greatly increase his lifespan. β
The little hamster nodded: "That's right, this mysterious second senior brother owes you a great favor now." Let's take a look at what secrets he hides. β
"I'm not like you voyeur, I'm not interested in other people's secrets. β
Chu Chen shook his head and stretched out his hand to push open the heavy stone door of the cave.
With one foot stepping into the cave, Chu Chen's sensitive ears suddenly heard a faint sound of water, as if something was churning in the water. This made him feel a little surprised.
Could it be that some desolate beast has broken into this cave?
As soon as the figure was long, Chu Chen's entire body turned into a gray shadow and quickly swept towards the direction where the sound of water came.
He was fast, and it took him almost a few breaths to come in the direction where the sound of water was coming from...... Inside the white jade hot spring pool in the cave.
Then he froze.
In front of him, the hot spring pool as warm as white jade rose, and a faint white mist shrouded the entire space, making the entire cave as if it had fallen into a fairyland.
And in this hazy white mist, a graceful snow-white carcass happened to stand up from the pool. The crystal clear and flawless skin is like clotted white jade, snow-white and dazzling.
The long purple hair was wet behind him, and a few naughty hairends were put in front of the plump and round twin peaks, so that the two red jade-like pink grapes could be perfectly outlined......
Looking down involuntarily, Chu Chen's brain suddenly buzzed as if it was about to explode.
In front of him, Zixi, who had just come out of the bath, was also slightly stunned, his crystal eyes were stunned for a moment, and he subconsciously reached out to cover his key parts.
