If there were a Great Completion Saint Body, or even a Chaos Body, it might not be impossible to head to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land to rescue the surviving fellow disciples of the Heaven Swirl Holy Land and free them from their state as slaves to the forbidden land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, I still have one tribulation that I must cross. If I pass it, I can protect your path.\" The Old Madman said with a solemn expression: \"If I do not pass it, you should go to the Heaven Swirl Stone Workshop. There is an old friend there who can shelter you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heaven Swirl Stone Workshop?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A tribulation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan and Lin Xian focused on different points. The former was surprised that the Heaven Swirl Holy Land still had experts; could it be another legendary Saint?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lin Xian was puzzled. Where did the Old Madman's tribulation come from? In the current era, the first level of the Sendai realm was a top-tier expert, the second level was a Great Power or Holy Lord, and the third level was the era of Kings who suppressed a region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Saint of the Heaven Swirl Holy Land at the fourth level of Sendai, the Old Madman was an existence invincible in the mortal world. Unless he lost his mind and attacked a Life Forbidden Zone or a Supreme Power, no one could stop him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am already over six thousand years old.\" The Old Madman said indifferently, pointing to his full head of white hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Six thousand years ago, the Old Madman's cultivation was earth-shattering, and he was hard to find a match for in the Eastern Wasteland. He had cultivated bitterly for another six thousand years, crossing the long history of time and traversing many eras, whether bright or dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the current Eastern Wasteland, or even the Big Dipper Emperor Star, what great enemy could there be? The only thing that could contend with him was time itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Time is like a blade that slays the heaven-proud, sighing at the beauty on the road to immortality...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian whispered, witnessing once again the cruelty of the Shrouding Heavens universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time is the greatest difficulty before the gate of immortality, and the greatest tribulation on the path to becoming an immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths experienced the chaotic ancient turmoil, and the universe was damaged. Although the Desolate Heaven Emperor later mended the Great Dao, ensuring the combat power of later cultivators, the longevity substances were sharply reduced, and lifespans were greatly diminished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Great Powers at the second level of the Immortal realm, who could once live long lives by relying on longevity substances, can now only live for two or three thousand years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Invincible Kings who roam the Eastern Wasteland, shattering mountains and rivers with a roar and leveling a piece of land with a punch, only have a lifespan of three or four thousand years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saints who can destroy stars with a flick of a finger and roam the universe are existences of eternal youth in other universes, but in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, they can only live for five or six thousand years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By analogy, the lifespan of a Saint King is six or seven thousand years, a Great Saint is seven or eight thousand years, a Quasi-Emperor is eight or nine thousand years, and a Great Emperor is over ten thousand years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps due to a special constitution or taking Medicine Kings, one might extend their lifespan a bit, but generally, it will not deviate from this base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Old Madman has already lived for over six thousand years. In this world where combat power determines lifespan and lifespan feeds back into the realm, he stands at the peak of a Saint's cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many ordinary Saint Kings with common constitutions who have never taken a Medicine King might not even be as good as him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that is as far as it goes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who in the world can be immortal? No matter how peerless and beautiful you are, in the end, you are just pink powder and skeletons; no matter how much of a heaven-proud generation you are, sitting on ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains, in the end, you will turn into a handful of yellow soil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by breaking through again and stepping into the Saint King realm can the Old Madman possibly extend his life by over a thousand years and provide shelter for the descendants of the Heaven Swirl Holy Land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian cupped his hands and bowed: \"May the senior soon prove the Saint King Dao fruit!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan and Jiang Tingting behind him followed suit, bowing and saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"May the senior cross the tribulation successfully and prove the Saint King Dao!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Old Madman looked at Lin Xian with deep meaning and said: \"The Heaven Swirl Holy Lord six thousand years later, you seem to know many great secrets.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example: the realm of Saint King is by no means something a Wheel Sea cultivator could know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some Great Powers who cultivate to the second level of Sendai are still ignorant, mistakenly believing that above a Saint is a Great Emperor, or an Immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sixth level of Sendai, Quasi-Emperor, Alternative Enlightenment, Great Emperor realm, and those who have attained the Dao—this information still belongs to the secrets of the current Eastern Wasteland, known only to the heads of families passed down through the ages and the true heads of Holy Lands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will not hide it from you, senior. The junior comes from the other side of the starry sky, where there are also some ancient traditions that have a great connection with the Big Dipper.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian said indifferently: \"And I am a book-flipper.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A book-flipper...\" The Old Madman was thoughtful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan was a bit excited, his gaze looking at Lin Xian, as if asking why he had revealed the matter of the other side of the starry sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian looked back and smiled at Ye Fan, saying: \"Do you remember me saying that Sages can traverse the void of the universe? Although the Primordial Ancient Star is mysterious, it is not entirely unknown to cultivators above the Saint level.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The universe is vast, and there is more than one source of life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You mean...\" In an instant, Ye Fan's eyes burst with bright light, as if he saw the hope of returning home. He bowed deeply to the Old Madman and pleaded: \"Senior, the junior also comes from the other side of the starry sky. I have parents at home to serve. Could you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For a Saint to go to the other side of the starry sky, one also needs a Five-Colored Altar. The universe is too vast.\" The Old Madman shook his head and said: \"When I break through, perhaps I can try.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Old Madman revealed the mysteries of the universe to them. The dark, deep, and silent universe is too vast, and sources of life are too rare, so the sages of the past set up Five-Colored Altars as teleportation arrays between one star field and another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saints can traverse the starry sky, but they cannot go too far, or they will lose their way and become wanderers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To truly treat the universe as a backyard and walk through one galaxy after another requires a body at the Quasi-Emperor level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan felt like he had been doused with a basin of cold water upon hearing this, but the hope in his heart remained undying. According to his deductions, Earth in the ancient era also belonged to a prosperous ancient life star and had intersections with the Big Dipper, so there should be Five-Colored Altars set up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"May I ask senior, how many years will the breakthrough take?\" Ye Fan asked with full expectation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Old Madman said indifferently: \"Short as seven or eight days, long as five or six years.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief. Five or six years at most is not too long; he can wait and have a chance to go to the other side of the starry sky to visit his parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Long as five or six years, five or six more years before I can stop eating beef in the Eastern Wasteland, that's a bit long...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and then bowed: \"Before you go into seclusion, senior, could you accompany the junior on a trip to the Demon Race?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, Lin Xian took out the Green Lotus Jade Pendant obtained from the Yin Pool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Demon Race.\" Divine light burst from the Old Madman's pupils as he looked at the jade pendant. He examined it for a long time, finally withdrew his gaze, frowned, and muttered in confusion: \"Could it be... the Green Emperor is really not dead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Green Emperor was the Great Emperor closest to the opening of the Immortal Path, yet he passed away and disappeared ten thousand years ago, full of mysteries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following normal logic, the Immortal Path is about to open; how could the Demon Emperor not calculate it? Perhaps he had heaven-defying means to hold on until this life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior, my Heaven Swirl has heritage but no Emperor Weapon. The Green Emperor's lineage is also declining, with an Emperor Weapon but no heritage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian bowed again: \"If the two families form an alliance, in the future, it will not be weaker than any Supreme Holy Land.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An Emperor Weapon...\" The Old Madman nodded. This is indeed the greatest power in the mortal world, the continuation of a Great Emperor's life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If an Emperor Weapon were to fully awaken, even a Quasi-Emperor would be wiped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How do you plan to form an alliance?\" The Old Madman asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian smiled without saying a word, looking at Ye Fan. Let the Saint Body suffer a bit more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan: \"???\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah, why is there something involving me again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1676,"2026-06-17T13:59:08.338Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","bb23c064e9e8cdcb087fd89d96b4e37d6cd6aa930b5f7254d362721cd28e5561","in-the-all-heavens-i-slacked-off-to-become-an-em-chapter-48","in-the-all-heavens-i-slacked-off-to-become-an-em-chapter-46",469,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flaying-flat-across-the-heavens-to-become-an-empe-cover.jpg"]
