Chapter 11: The Twilight One (2)
"So, the guards didn't know you were here?" asked the old man.
Fang Ling nodded, and the old man smiled and said, "That's good, as long as they don't know, you won't have any trouble." Come with me first, and I'll send you out when I have the chance. ”
"Then there is Lao senior. Fang Ling and the four of them hurriedly thanked him, and secretly said that this old man of the Tiger Clan is quite kind, but although the four of them are young, they have experienced a lot of life and death, so they naturally will not believe in a person so easily, even if he is an old man, and everyone is also a little puzzled, guarding the outside, what kind of identity does this old man have in the Tiger Clan.
Although Fang Ling had doubts, he didn't ask much, he was going to observe the situation first, and when he walked into the middle of the deep valley, a flat land appeared here, and there were more than a dozen wooden houses built on the flat ground, and there were several old men who were also old sitting on the ground in the open space in front of the house.
The old man smiled at Fang Ling and the others: "Don't be afraid, they have never seen a human cultivator like this." ”
Several other old men stood up one after another, the fierce look on their faces just now flashed early, and they all showed kind expressions, these old men were the same as the old men who led the way, they were all gray-haired, walking slowly, and some were even so thin that they were skinny and bones.
Fang Ling saw that the time was almost up, so he asked, "Senior, why are you here, there are guards guarding outside, what kind of place is this?"
The old man smiled and replied, "This is the cemetery of the Tiger Clan. ”
"Tiger Clan Cemetery?" Fang Ling and the others were secretly taken aback.
The old man pointed to a path in front of him, "From there, there is a cemetery, where the Tiger people who died of natural causes for 100,000 years are buried. ”
As soon as Fang Ling heard this, he immediately understood what was going on, only after cultivating to a certain realm, could a cultivator jump out of the six realms of reincarnation and live with heaven and earth, but before that, there was a life limit.
Generally speaking, cultivators in the foundation building period can live for 500 years, cultivators in the Jindan period can live for 1,000 years, and cultivators in the Yuan Infant period can live for 2,000 years.
Of course, some cultivators may have a longer survival period due to special magic weapons or special physiques, but what they can grow is also very limited.
Just like Pang Sanshi and other cultivators of the Five Sect Alliance, who have been sleeping in the mortal world for nearly three hundred years, if they are not able to enter the realm of the Golden Pill Stage within two hundred years, then what awaits them is only a natural death, that is, the old death of a cultivator.
The seven or eight elderly cultivators in front of them are all in the foundation building stage, ranging from the late stage to the Great Perfection stage, even though the physique of the beast cultivators is better than that of the human cultivators, but their age is only close to five hundred years old, in fact, if you explore carefully, you can find that the innate qi in their bodies is already a little thin.
I finally broke through many difficulties and became a cultivator, but in the end, because of my lack of comprehension qualifications, I cultivated for 500 years without a breakthrough, and finally died of old age, which has to be said to be a kind of sadness.
Song Ying'er couldn't help but feel pity and comforted: "Seniors don't have to be sentimental, people have natural luck, maybe one day suddenly have an epiphany." ”
