Chapter 161 Lifespan
In the Law Enforcement Hall, looking at Chen Changming in front of him, Elder Jindao thought for a moment, and finally nodded.
"Also."
He said softly, and nodded to Chen Changming: "Xia Qi knows what to do, just let him take you there when the time comes."
"good."
Listening to Elder Jindao's words, Chen Changming couldn't help smiling.
"Boy, are you... going to ask the elders of the Lingzong for martial arts?"
After leaving the law enforcement hall, the spirit in the sword couldn't help but ask in his mind.
"yes."
Chen Changming paused, and nodded naturally.
"That's a good idea, too."
After thinking for a moment, the spirit in the knife couldn't help but nodded.
The past elders of the Lingzong were all masters, but due to various reasons, they had to step down from the position of elders.
But there is no doubt that these people are extremely strong. Even though they are old and may no longer be able to hold a sword, their martial arts experience is still extremely superb, and it is enough to teach Chen Changming.
In this regard, the spirit of the sword is also supported.
Although he is the spirit of the inheritance of the Heavenly King's Golden Saber and has mastered a lot of martial arts, he basically takes a fierce path.
As for some other martial arts, although he also knows them, he may not be very good at mastering them, and may not be taught as well by the elders of the Lingzong.
Obviously, both he and Elder Jindao guessed wrongly about Chen Changming's purpose.
Chen Changming's purpose is not that complicated.
The reason why he wanted to visit the elders of the Lingzong was simply because he was greedy and wanted to do some projection.
Apart from this, although there are other purposes, they are not so important.
"Hopefully something will be gained."
Walking on the road, this thought flashed through Chen Changming's mind.
Visiting the elders of the Lingzong past is the best way he can think of to improve his strength in a short period of time.
The elders of the Lingzong are basically masters, and the same is true for those old elders at their peak.
Among the elders of the Lingzong, the elders who were at their peak, such as the elder Jindao, Chen Changming couldn't beat.
But these old elders should still be able to do it, right?
Even if he used to be a grandmaster, but now he is so old and weak, he must not have much combat power left, right?
Chen Changming was thinking so at the moment.
He didn't feel any guilt about his plans to bully the widowed old man.
No way, forced by life.
If possible, he didn't want to grab the old man's wool.
But Nai He Zhuang really couldn't beat him.
At this point, Chen Changming suddenly remembered something.
"Senior Spirit"
His body paused, and he asked softly in his mind: "How old is Elder Jin Dao?"
"Golden knife?"
Then the voice of the spirit in the knife rang in his mind: "This guy is more than three hundred years old now."
"If you don't break through to return to the source, it is estimated that if you think about it again, you will soon die."
He shook his head, and said so, with some embarrassment in his voice.
"Over three hundred years old."
Chen Changming was lost in thought.
"Boy, you are already innate. If there are no accidents, you will probably be able to easily live beyond one hundred and fifty."
"The grandmaster generally has a lifespan of three hundred years."
"Golden Knife is the pinnacle of a master, with a half-step return to the source, his life expectancy should be longer than that of ordinary masters, and he should be able to live to four hundred years old."
"But basically, in a few decades, he should die."
There was some sigh in the voice of the spirit in the knife: "People are like this, as long as they are old, they are useless."
"Even if it's Jindao, his strength will start to decline in a few decades. If one is not good at that time, I'm afraid he won't even be able to beat that little girl before."
He spoke softly, with an inexplicable sadness in his voice.
Perhaps in the past years, he has seen many such situations.
As for the little girl mentioned by the spirit in the sword, it is naturally referring to the elder Sacred Heart.
"Does the master only have three hundred years of life?"
Chen Changming was silent for a while, and then continued: "What about Guiyuan?"
"Return to the source"
The spirit in the knife thought for a while, and then gave an answer: "Generally speaking, it can last about five hundred years, which is considered a long time."
"However, at this level, even if life is exhausted, there may still be ways to survive."
"any solution?"
Chen Changming was taken aback for a moment, and continued to ask.
"Keeping part of my own source, and suppressing it through special methods, can keep part of my consciousness passed on, and it will not disappear for a long time in the past."
The spirit in the knife said: "But in this way, it is basically meaningless, and I can't move normally, I can only observe the surroundings."
"Generally speaking, those who use this method to keep part of their own sources are seldom for themselves, but basically for inheritance."
"Just like me."
In Chen Changming's mind, the voice of the spirit in the knife continued to sound: "My existence is because my master injects a little of his own energy into the golden knife, so that I can be born and have my own consciousness."
"The source left by other people is basically the same, but because the strength is different, the situation shown is also different."
"Of course, if the strength goes a step further and reaches above Guiyuan, then the situation will be different."
"What's the difference?" Chen Changming continued to ask.
"Even if you die, you may cheat your body."
The spirit in the sword spoke like this: "At this level, one's own source and spirit are already extremely powerful, and can even feed back to the world to form various unique fates."
"Isn't that how the life of the Spirit King came about on you?"
Hearing this, Chen Changming couldn't help being taken aback: "The so-called fate is manifested by the powerhouse above Guiyuan's feedback to the world?"
"right."
The spirit in the sword nodded: "To be precise, it is the traces left by the strong ones in the world."
"When their own source is strong enough to a certain level, it will be enough to reflect the world, reflect their traces, and turn them into various unique fates."
"If future generations inherit their orthodoxy and their destiny, they will follow the same path as their ancestors under the influence of the previous trajectory."
"At the same time, this is also the reason why the power of destiny is so strong."
"Think about it."
The voice of the spirit in the knife continued to sound: "What kind of existence are these people who can leave their own fate?"
"Every one of them is above Guiyuan, known as the existence of gods and demons."
"No matter what their growth trajectory is, the end point is to return to the source."
"If future generations inherit their fate and follow their previous trajectory, will their achievements be bad?"
"Propelled by the power of fate, although it is impossible to achieve the original achievements of these fate creators, if they survive all the way, at least they can become a pinnacle master, and even returning to the source is not without hope."
"Take the life of the Spirit King on you as an example."
"The spirit kings of all ages inherited the fate of the original spirit king. Although their lives were miserable and there were many disasters, each of them was the best in the world, and the weakest ones who survived were also the pinnacle masters."
"According to what you said, the life of the spirit king in me is not only not bad, but it is a good thing."
Hearing the words of the spirit in the sword, Chen Changming smiled and said so.
"It depends on how you look at it."
The Spirit of the Sword shook his head, and said again: "Good and bad are relative concepts, and they are different for everyone."
"Moreover, inheriting the power of fate is not completely harmless."
"I said before that those existences above the source will cheat corpses from time to time."
"This is the disadvantage of the power of fate."
"You mean?"
Standing where he was, Chen Changming frowned, as if thinking of something.
"good."
The spirit in the knife nodded, and said: "The power of inheriting fate exists, and it will be influenced by the founder of fate invisibly, and will eventually be assimilated by the creator of fate."
"In the end, if this kind of assimilation reaches a certain level, it may even be taken away by the developer of destiny."
"At that time, the Fate Opener will be equivalent to reviving."
"so."
Chen Changming's face remained unchanged, and he frowned secretly.
"Of course, you don't have to worry too much."
Seeming to understand what Chen Changming was thinking, the spirit in the sword continued: "This kind of situation is just accidental, and it will not happen in most cases."
"It's even more unlikely to happen to you."
When he said this, his words seemed extremely decisive.
In the eyes of the spirit in the sword, Chen Changming is the reincarnated body of the King of the Golden Sword, so naturally he will not be assimilated by the mere order of the spirit king, or even taken away by the spirit king.
Even though the King of the Golden Knife had not reached the ultimate limit, he had broken through that barrier in half a step and reached the level of a half-step god and demon.
Although this level is not as good as the power of gods and demons, it is absolutely impossible for the assimilation power of mere fate to assimilate such existences.
Even if it is reincarnation, it is impossible.
What's more, after completely inheriting the inheritance of the Golden Knife, the trajectory of Chen Changming's fate has been more or less changed by the power of fate left by the King of the Golden Knife, and it is impossible to completely match the fate of the King of Spirits. assimilation.
Ling Wang's order wanted to completely assimilate Chen Changming, but it was just an impossible thing.
Of course, for these things, the spirit in the knife did not elaborate.
Standing in front of him, although Chen Changming didn't know why the spirit in the sword said that, he could feel the certainty in the other's words, so he nodded slightly.
Standing there, he asked some more questions, and then walked towards the Spirit King Hall where he was.
Time passed silently, and after a few days, under Xia Qi's leadership, Chen Changming left the Lingwang Palace and headed towards the back mountain of Lingzong.
The scope of the entire Lingzong can be roughly divided into two parts: inside and outside, and the outside is where many branches including the Lingwang Hall are located.
Including the Law Enforcement Hall of Elder Jin Dao, the Sacred Heart Hall of Elder Sacred Heart, and the Houmu Hall of Elder Hou Sheng, they are all in it.
As for the inner circle, it is another scene.
