Under the night sky, Sea God Lake was still as beautiful as ever. The huge Eternal Tree was like a lighthouse, emitting a faint green light that illuminated the surface of the lake, giving off a hazy sense of beauty. Looking at it, one would naturally feel at peace.
Lan Xuanyu, Bai Xiuxiu, Lan Mengqin, Liu Feng, Tang Yuge, and Yuanen Hui-hui were standing by the shore of Sea God Lake. In the lake, they saw a familiar figure. Wasn't it Qian Lei, whom they hadn't seen for a long time?
Most of Qian Lei's body was soaked in the water of Sea God Lake, and only his head was exposed. His eyes were closed as he immersed himself in meditation.
After not seeing him for a while, Fatty Qian had indeed lost some weight, but he was clearly much stronger. He had changed from a pure fatty to fat and strong. His skin was bronze in color and emitted a faint metallic luster. Unknowingly, he seemed to be transforming from a teenager to a young man, and his entire temperament seemed to have changed quite a bit.
Tang Yue said, "This fatty has been cultivating here for a long time. His body is like a bottomless pit. Although he doesn't absorb as much life energy as you do every day, he can continue to absorb it. It seems that the little ape that Teacher awakened back then is really not an ordinary ancient mutant!"
The reason Qian Lei could cultivate here was naturally because of the money he won last time. With so many purple emblems, it was enough for him to cultivate here for a long time. In addition, with Lan Xuanyu's reputation, he still had some use in the Life School of Thought. Cultivating in Sea God Lake for a long time gave him a discount.
Even so, ever since Qian Lei started cultivating here, he had accumulated more than 30 purple emblems. Even Lan Xuanyu had never cultivated so extravagantly before! More importantly, he couldn't keep absorbing life energy here. But Qian Lei did it. It could be seen how much life energy the Golden Behemoth required.
When Lan Xuanyu paid the bill for Qian Lei, his heart ached so much that his hands trembled. It was 30 purple emblems at once! Although it was Fatty's money, he still felt heartache for him! I wonder how Fatty will feel after he wakes up and finds out that I've spent so much money.
"Xuanyu, you brat, tell me the truth. Will the few of you be like him when you cultivate this time and never wake up? That would be a huge loss for me! If the Inner Court investigates, even Teacher may not be able to cover for you. "Tang Yue looked at Lan Xuanyu with some vigilance.
He had just used the price of one purple emblem per person to allow Lan Xuanyu and the others to cultivate and absorb the Emperor Fruits at Sea God Lake.
Lan Xuanyu coughed. "Teacher Tang, we've known each other for so long. Am I the kind of person who likes to take advantage of others?"
"Yeah!" Tang Yue said grumpily, "When did you not waste more time? I turned a blind eye to it. Are you insulting my IQ?"
"Teacher, this isn't good. Speaking of which, what do you think of me joining the School of Life? "Lan Xuanyu suddenly said.
Tang Yue's eyes lit up. Of course he knew that Lan Xuanyu was highly valued by Vice Pavilion Master Wang Tianyu. Even his teacher couldn't forcefully accept him into the School of Life. But if he was willing to join, it would be different.
"Why do you want to join our School of Life?" Tang Yue said seriously.
"Of course it's … to save money! After I join the School of Life, will I not have to pay emblems to cultivate at Sea God Lake in the future? "Lan Xuanyu chuckled.
Tang Yue really wanted to slap him. This brat was too thick-skinned. How was he like a teenager?
"Just because of this?" Tang Yue asked.
"Cough cough, of course not. I was joking, Teacher Tang. It's mainly because I'm very close to life energy, and life energy is also very close to me. In terms of the research of life energy, our School of Life is the strongest in the Federation. This will be of great help to me in understanding life energy and comprehending the characteristics of life in this world. I believe that my understanding will also feed back to our School of Life, don't you think so? "
Tang Yue took a deep look at him and said solemnly: "The academy established the School of Life about ten thousand years ago, after the construction of Eternal Sky City. As we all know, with the growth of the Eternal Tree, our entire Mother Planet has undergone a transformation in the level of life, evolving to a higher level. However, although our ancestors had a higher level of strength and could be compared to the gods of the past, they did not have the position of gods. As for what the position of gods is, no one knows until now. However, without the position of gods, it means that one cannot live forever. Therefore, although the lifespan of humans on our Mother Planet has increased, even a god rank powerhouse can only live for about three hundred years. And the existence of the School of Life is to break this limit and extend lifespan by relying on the research of life energy and the level of life. "
At this point, he paused for a moment before continuing: "Especially to extend the lifespan of a god rank powerhouse. After breaking through to the god rank, humans as a whole will undergo a transformation, and it can even be said that they are no longer normal humans. Through continuous research, after ten thousand years of development, a god rank powerhouse can live for about a thousand years while maintaining a complete human form. However, a thousand years seems to have become a limit. We used two hundred years to complete this research, but for more than nine thousand years after that, we have never been able to break through the thousand-year limit. Only by using some special methods can we further extend our lifespan, but that kind of life is no longer of much significance to many people. "
"Teacher is already 985 years old this year. He is currently the oldest human in the academy. Xuan Yu, Teacher said that you have the highest affinity with life energy he has ever seen. Maybe you can really lead the School of Life to create a miracle and break through the thousand-year limit. If you can do it, then you will be the benefactor of all god rank powerhouses, and you will be supported by all god rank powerhouses in the Federation. Even if you run for the Federation's chairman, you will have a high chance of success. "
"I'm telling you this so that you can realize the importance of the current situation. To me, nothing else is so important. What's important is how to let my teacher, Master Shu, continue to live. In his life, Master Shu has made countless contributions to the academy, and he has also carried forward our School of Life to its current scale. He can't die. Therefore, if you really want to join the School of Life, then in the next decade or so, please put more effort into comprehending the hierarchy of life. If you join us, you will receive the full support of the School of Life, but at the same time, you are also obligated to make sufficient contributions to the research of the level of life. Now, are you still willing to join us? "
Not only Lan Xuanyu, but his companions were also stunned. There was no doubt that Tang Yue had revealed a big secret today.
Could god rank powerhouses live for a thousand years? Normal humans were only between one hundred and two hundred years old. The age of god rank powerhouses announced by the Federation to the public was only three hundred years old. They didn't expect that under the influence of the School of Life, they could actually live for a thousand years.
The thousand-year limit, Master Shu was already close to the thousand-year limit.
Lan Xuanyu couldn't help but think of the kind old man's face. He had a great sense of intimacy with Master Shu, and Master Shu was really good to him, giving him the Life Ruyi the first time they met. If it weren't for the Life Ruyi and the black emblem, Lan Xuanyu might not have been able to figure out his current cultivation method.
Lan Xuanyu was silent for Tang Yue's last question. Because he knew that if he agreed to join the School of Life, then there was no doubt that he would have to bear a heavy burden on his shoulders. Was this something he could bear?
