At the beginning, when the Great Elder heard Chen Jing say that he wanted to give the Seven Han Fruit to himself, he was still a little moved.

A hundred years of skill, who wouldn't be tempted?

However, when the Great Elder thought of his age, the slightest hint of excitement immediately disappeared.

"Shut up! Who do you think of as a teacher? Is a teacher a person who covets the treasures of his disciples? ”

The Great Elder scolded sharply.

"Master, why don't you accept it?"

Chen Jing was puzzled, a hundred years of skill, fifty years of life, and even those who changed to immortal cultivators could not refuse.

The Great Elder sighed and shook his head.

"Jing'er, the teacher knows your filial piety, and you want the teacher to live for fifty more years. It's not possible, though. ”

Chen Jing didn't understand, and hurriedly asked,

"Didn't Master say that Changchun Immortal Gong can prolong life?"

The Great Elder looked at Chen Jing with a hint of sadness in his eyes.

"You only know one thing but you don't know the other, this Changchun immortality can indeed prolong life for fifty years, but it has one condition."

"Still on the ground?"

Chen Jing frowned unconsciously.

Changchun's immortal skill is mysterious, and its limitations are too many. This also requires conditions, and that also requires conditions.

The Great Elder smiled dumbly: "Of course there are conditions. Changchun immortality is not a way to become an immortal, where can you prolong your life casually. ”

"This."

Chen Jing knew that what the Great Elder said was very reasonable.

A mortal is a mortal, even if it is a mortal with strong martial arts, it is also a mortal.

It can easily extend the life of mortals by fifty years, and those Qi cultivation period cultivators have already come to Changchun Valley to snatch Changchun Immortal Gong.

Immortal cultivators who have attained great perfection in the Qi cultivation period only have a lifespan of one hundred and twenty years!

"The condition for Changchun's immortal skill to prolong life is that it must be cultivated to the ninth level before the age of forty, when the body's essence is at its most vigorous."

The Great Elder said solemnly.

He is both an explanation and a warning.

"Why forty?"

Chen Jing asked puzzled.

"Before the age of forty, the essence of the human body is constantly increasing, but after the age of forty, the essence of the human body begins to leak outward and gradually decreases. The reason why people age is the result of the decline of their essence. The ninth secret of Changchun's immortal skill lies in the entrance of life and death. After breaking through the threshold of life and death and forming a great Zhou Tian in the body, you can lock the essence of the human body. ”

The Great Elder said so.

As soon as he mentioned the ninth level of Changchun Immortal Gong, his spirit shook again, as if he had cultivated to that level.

However, Changchun Immortal Gong is the most proud magic skill of Changchun Valley. After practicing to the ninth level, he will live longer than the immortal cultivators in the Qi cultivation period.

The Great Elder has this reaction, and he is really evergreen in people.

"Then why, after the age of forty, you can't lock the essence of the human body?"

Chen Jing quickly discovered the problem.

Even if the essence in the body is no longer at its peak after the age of forty, as long as the essence in the body is locked, it should still be able to prolong the lifespan.

"It's that simple!"

The Great Elder shook his head.

"The leakage of essence is a sign of aging. Birth, old age, sickness and death are dictated by Providence, and we mortals cannot go against this process. Just like a person who is seriously injured, no matter how serious the injury is, as long as he is not dead, there is still hope for treatment, but once the person dies, there is no way to save him. ”

The meaning of the Great Elder's words is very clear.

Aging can not be stopped, can only be delayed, the mystery of Changchun immortality is not to prolong life, but to delay aging.

It can't be open source, it can only be throttled.

Chen Jing thought of his ability, and he was sure of one thing. Even if the ability doesn't make him immortal, his lifespan will definitely not be too short.

All the vital activities of the human body consume essence.

Originally, life activities consumed Chen Jing's own essence, but Chen Jing had the ability to absorb essence from the outside world, and these foreign essences could replace Chen Jing's own essence and supply life activities for consumption.

In this way, even if the foreign essence qi cannot completely replace his own essence, Chen Jing's essence consumed is much less than that of ordinary people.

As long as Chen Jing's essence does not leak out, his lifespan should be much longer than that of ordinary people.

"Therefore, even if you practice the skills of growing up for your teacher, you can't prolong your life as a teacher. These Seven Cold Fruits, you can keep them for my future disciples! ”

The Great Elder smiled calmly and said.

With this smile, he seemed to let go of life and death, and let go of the regret that he couldn't cultivate immortals.

It is true that he can't do it, but his disciples, his disciples and grandchildren, all have a life span of one hundred and fifty years, and he has no regrets.

When it comes to life and death, the topic suddenly becomes heavy.

Chen Jing had no experience of death, and as soon as he woke up, he came to the dream world.

Zhuang Zhou dreams of butterflies, who is Zhuang Zhou and who is the butterfly, I can't tell at all.

His relatives in Lanxing were only separated from him, and they did not necessarily suffer death.

So, this was the first time he experienced the difference between life and death.

Chen Jing looked at the Great Elder's aging face and felt very powerless

Seeing that Chen Jing's face was heavy, the Great Elder suddenly saw through Chen Jing's thoughts, and he walked in front of Chen Jing.

"Jing'er, life is inevitable, and death is inevitable. We are born as human beings and enjoy a hundred years of life, which is already luckier than the vast majority of living beings in this world. ”

As he spoke, he stuffed the Seven Cold Fruit back into Chen Jing's hand.

"After you practice the Immortal Skill of Growing Spring, leave Changchun Valley!"

The Great Elder said suddenly.

"What?"

Chen Jingru was struck by lightning.

The Great Elder's words, he didn't expect it, why did he let him leave Changchun Valley.

The Great Elder couldn't bear it, but he still turned his head and looked at Chen Jing fixedly:

"You're too young. If you practice the Immortal Skill at a young age, as long as you are not an idiot, you will know that you must have taken the treasure of heaven and earth. ”

"Heaven and earth treasure, that's what immortal cultivators want to get at all costs. If you stay in Changchun Valley, I am afraid that you will be killed. ”

As he said this, the Great Elder's hands trembled.

He is a mortal, even if he is desperate, he can't protect his disciples under the hands of immortal cultivators.

He had no choice but to let Chen Jing go.

Chen Jing immediately understood the Great Elder's painstaking efforts.

In all fairness, he is reluctant to leave Changchun Valley, where there are teachers who care for him, and there are colleagues who have a deep relationship with him.

Here, he learned a body of martial arts, a body of divine skills.

However, he had to leave.

"Disciple obeys!"

Chen Jing bowed deeply and agreed.

Leaving is only a short separation, the future is fateful, and there is a chance to see you again. If he didn't leave, he and the Great Elder might be in danger.

He is not the person who returns his mother-in-law and mother when things come to an end, that kind of person, he is annoyed to see it.

"Good! You ate the Seven Cold Fruits, and you are the teacher who protects the Dharma for you! ”

The Great Elder didn't say much, he just wanted to watch his disciple cultivate the Immortal Immortal Skill, which was the most important thing.

"Woo~"

Chen Jing nodded, picked up the Seven Cold Fruits, and took a bite.
