Chapter 456: Xia Di's Lifespan

~8 min read 1,544 words

The Xia Di was in a good mood that the Jizhou matter could get the support of the five major immortal sects.

He then mentioned another matter: "You should have heard that the Ganshi Sect Master was originally going to be possessed, but the Ganshi Sect Master's soul lamp was placed in the Congwendao Sect. Because the Great Yu cultivators were afraid of being discovered by the Congwendao Sect, they did not completely possess the Ganshi Sect Master and left his soul."

"Yes, when I was dealing with the aftermath in Hanshui City, that grandson Lu Baqian survived the disaster. Relying on his Tribulation Transcendence stage body, he showed off in front of me all day long. It's really wicked!" Qiu Jinan snorted coldly.

The Xia Di acted as if he hadn't heard what Qiu Jinan was saying: "Then can we learn from this experience and let other sects place their soul lamps here with the five major immortal sects and the imperial court, which can be considered a guarantee."

"Yes, Fellow Daoist Yun just said that there are at least four more Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivators on Great Yu's side. Integration stage possessing Integration stage will inevitably lead to battle, and we can detect it, but Tribulation Transcendence stage possessing Integration stage is too simple, and it can be successful silently."

"If something like Sect Master Lu happens again, with the soul lamp system, it can make the Great Yu cultivators fear the rat and protect the soul of the possessed party."

"This move is feasible." Miss Yun Zhi nodded, the first to support the Xia Di's proposal.

She had thought of a similar method on the way here and wanted to propose it at the meeting, but it was snatched by the Xia Di.

"I also think there is no problem."

"The Prison-Suppressing Sect thinks it is feasible."

The Abbot of the Hanging Temple did not speak, acquiescing.

Seeing that everyone reached a consensus, the Xia Di continued: "After the meeting, I will order people to draw up a list, hand it over to you, and notify the sects on the list."

Great Xia's sect system adopts a registration system. As long as you go to the government to report, report the number of people, scale, address, Sect Master, and a series of basic information of the sect, the registration is considered successful, and no review or approval is required.

Subsequent matters such as Sect Master changes still need to be reported to the government.

Thanks to the existence of this system, Great Xia is very clear about the number and location of sects, and officials can soon draw up a list according to the Xia Di's requirements.

After the important matters were discussed, the five walked out of the hall with laughter, and the Abbot of the Hanging Temple walked out of the hall with laughter, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

The eunuchs and palace maids stood respectfully outside the hall, preparing to send off the five immortal sect masters.

"Cough, cough—" The Xia Di, who was discussing Bu Yu with Qiu Jinan, coughed violently. He covered his mouth and nose, his palms stained with a few blood spots, and a strand of white hair appeared on his forehead, which was particularly dazzling in his thick black hair.

"Your Majesty!" The Chief Eunuch was scared out of his wits when he saw this scene. He took three steps and two steps to step forward to support the Xia Di.

"Call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician quickly!" Other eunuchs and palace maids were in a mess, obviously scared.

"What's wrong with you?" Qiu Jinan frowned and grabbed the Xia Di's wrist, his face changing slightly.

"Why are you so weak!"

Logically speaking, this should not be the case. State governors are protected by the power of national destiny, immune to all poisons and diseases. As the Emperor of Great Xia, he has supreme control over the power of national destiny, and his body is even less likely to have problems.

The Xia Di smiled bitterly and waved his hand, looking unwilling to talk about it. The Abbot of the Hanging Temple recited Amitabha in his heart and said nothing.

Miss Yun Zhi had the highest cultivation and saw through the Xia Di's situation at a glance: "His lifespan is exhausted."

"Lifespan exhausted?" Luo Hongxia was stunned, not expecting the Xia Di to face the problem of lifespan exhaustion, and so suddenly.

The Xia Di looked at Miss Yun Zhi, also stunned. He was protected by the power of national destiny at all times, and no one should be able to see his situation. He didn't expect Miss Yun Zhi to see through his problem at a glance.

Knowing that things couldn't be hidden, he had to say: "After all, I am only at the Spirit Transformation stage."

Among the six, Miss Yun Zhi had the highest cultivation, and the Xia Di had the lowest.

Becoming an emperor or not has no direct relationship with cultivation. After all, no matter how high the emperor's cultivation is, he can't suppress the world by his own strength.

"That's not right either. You are only a thousand years old, and the Spirit Transformation stage can live for fifteen hundred to two thousand years." The Sect Master of the Prison-Suppressing Sect frowned in confusion.

Great Xia is currently facing internal and external troubles. If the Xia Di has problems, especially lifespan problems, it will inevitably lead to turmoil in the situation, and all kinds of monsters and ghosts will come out to walk around. This is not a good thing.

"When I was the Crown Prince, I had a serious illness and was on the verge of death. In order to cure the illness, I took many precious medicinal materials, including two stalks of Medicine King roots and leaves. Unfortunately, my body at that time was too weak to be supplemented. My life was saved, but my lifespan was damaged."

The five had heard of this, and the older eunuchs and palace maids in the palace also knew about it.

"Our sect has several small Medicine Kings that prolong life, such as the Eternal Camellia, the Ten Thousand Years Unbounded Stone, etc." Qiu Jinan said. The Xia Di must not have any problems now.

The Eternal Camellia, with eight thousand years as spring and eight thousand years as autumn, is rare in the world and is an excellent medicinal material for prolonging life.

The Ten Thousand Years Unbounded Stone is a kind of stone that grows every year, but it grows extremely slowly and is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. After ten thousand years, it grows a circle, and scraping off some stone chips is a treasure for prolonging life that even Integration stage cultivators are moved by.

When the Xia Di heard Qiu Jinan say this, his eyes lit up, and then dimmed. He shook his head gently: "It's useless. I have taken too many heavenly materials and earthly treasures before. The imperial physician said that my body has developed drug resistance, and no small Medicine King works."

The lifespan problem is fatal, and even the power of national destiny is difficult to make up for, unless one can become an immortal, with endless lifespan, only then is there a solution.

"How long can you live?"

"About ten years." One knows one's own body best.

Everyone was silent. Ten years for a cultivator is fleeting and too short.

Is it possible that the Xia Di will close his eyes just as he sees the curtain of the great era open?

Since his ascension to the throne, the Xia Di has been diligent and conscientious for the country and the people. Great Xia's national strength has grown day by day, and the power of national destiny has become more and more solid. He is a rare and wise monarch who can rank in the top three in Great Xia's history. Is it possible that heaven is jealous of talent, letting him die at such a critical moment, without even seeing the true great era?

This is unfair.

But even if it is unfair, what can be done?

The Sect Master of the Prison-Suppressing Sect couldn't help but say: "There is still a lot of time. I will go back and discuss with other elders. The world is so big, there will always be other ways."

He didn't believe it. If they couldn't make up for the Xia Di's lifespan, couldn't they prolong his life for dozens or a hundred years?

The five immortal sect masters walked out of the Imperial City, leaping into the air, sighing silently in their hearts, and flew back to their respective sects to find a solution.

"Speaking of which, the Crown Prince has not been established yet, and it will be another storm of blood."

"Great Yu, Great Gan, Demon Domain, East Sea, internal and external troubles, and now his lifespan is exhausted. It's a troubled time."

After everyone left, the Xia Di refused service and walked towards the ancestral land of the imperial palace, hoping that the ancestors would have a solution.

The second update will be around eleven o'clock.
