Chapter 4567: Survivors of the Ancient Saints
Nie Tian heard Yu Sanjing say that the immortal skills of Fengtian Sect were all passed down from an ancient saint, and his face changed and he was very surprised.
The ancient saints were the strongest nine saints among the first batch of saints that appeared in the ancient continent.
The ancient saint is a special title, representing the strongest existence among humans in the ancient times.
The real founder of Fengtian Sect, to be precise, was not the first Fenghuang, but the ancient saint who died in Fengtian Mountains.
The entrance to the world that Nie Tian and others entered was at the Jiuji Peak Gate of Fengtian Sect.
It can be boldly inferred that the ancient saint mentioned by Yu Sanjing and the ancient saint who died in Fengtian Sect are most likely the same person.
Because the possibility of two ancient saints appearing in the same place is too low.
"Yes." Yu Sanjing was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Nie Tian and Qingqi were so surprised, and then said: "Some people say that there was no one in our Xianqi Continent originally. It was the ancient saint who came and reproduced on this continent, which led to the prosperous Xianqi Continent now. It is no exaggeration to say that it was the ancient saint who created the current Xianqi Continent."
Nie Tian and Qingqi were stunned again when they heard Yu Sanjing's words, and they were speechless for a while.
If it is true as Yu Sanjing said, then the people on Xianqi Continent are not the descendants of the ancient saint, the survivors of the ancient saint!
"Master Yu, do you know how big Xianqi Continent is?" Qingqi calmed down a little and asked curiously.
They came to Xianqi Continent from Fengtian Sect, but it does not mean that Xianqi Continent is small.
It is very likely that the Jiuji Peak Gate of Fengtian Sect is just one of the thousands of entrances to Xianqi Continent.
"I don't know." Yu Sanjing shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm over ninety years old and have never been out of Fengming Mountain."
Nie Tian frowned. Looking at Yu Sanjing, he didn't look like a ninety-year-old man, but more like a fifty-sixty-year-old.
Although the Holy Realm of the Heavens is martial, the proportion of warriors in the total population is not high, at most only about one-tenth.
The remaining nine-tenths are ordinary people who do not practice martial arts, and their life span is between dozens and hundreds of years old.
Nie Tian originally thought that Yu Sanjing was an ordinary person, about fifty or sixty years old, but he didn't expect the latter to be over ninety years old.
But here is a beautiful place, and it is normal for people living here to live longer.
"But when I was young, I visited Fengtian Sect once and had the honor of listening to Fengtian Xianzun's preaching. According to Xianzun, our Xianqi Continent is vast and boundless, with no end, and no one has ever been to the border of Xianqi." Yu Sanjing looked at Qingqi, as if he recalled the past, with a fiery light in his eyes.
Once upon a time, he also had a passion and dreamed of becoming an immortal cultivator, but because of his shallow fate, he was eventually rejected by Fengtian Sect.
"Master Yu, how long do the immortal cultivators of Fengtian Sect live?" Qingqi frowned and asked with a smile.
At this time, he had a vague guess in his heart.
According to Yu Sanjing, Xianqi Continent should be a world of immortal cultivation.
And the people on Xianqi Continent should be descendants of the ancient saints, and the immortal skills they practiced were also passed down from the ancient saints.
All these are very similar to the development of martial arts in the holy world of the heavens.
The martial arts system of the holy world of the heavens was also established by the first batch of ancient saints who appeared among humans in the ancient times.
For example, the various realms of the spirit realm, the divine realm, and the holy realm are not innate, but the first batch of warriors communicated and discussed together according to their own martial arts characteristics, and finally determined.
The subsequent warriors practiced along this set of martial arts system, which led to the current martial arts world.
Just like the plane world where Nie Tian was originally, all warriors strictly follow the nine-realm system of Yuanmai, Yuanling, Yuanling, until Tianren, Tiandi.
But after arriving in the Holy Realm, people here only call the Ling Realm the basic realm, and the subsequent Shen Realm is just a stage of power expansion. It is not until the Holy Realm that the real martial arts begins.
Therefore, people live in different worlds, have different cognitions, and different systems, and the achievements they can achieve are also different.
Just like Nie Tian, if he had not left the plane world, he would only be the peak of Tiandi throughout his life.
Qingqi felt that martial arts and immortals might be two different power systems that existed in the ancient times, but in the end, martial arts prevailed in the holy world of the heavens, while immortals developed in the Xianqi continent.
The period when the ancient saints existed was originally a critical period for the establishment of the cultivation system. It is not surprising that there are many different power cultivation systems at the same time.
Qingqi really wants to know how long the immortals here have a lifespan.
The strength of a cultivation system is often proportional to the lifespan.
The longer the life span, the stronger the cultivation system, and vice versa.
When people cultivate, in the final analysis, it is to improve the body. The stronger the body, the longer the life span, which is very normal.
"This..." Yu Sanjing was stunned at first, as if he did not expect Qingqi to ask this question. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "I don't know about the immortals. But I heard that some powerful immortals can live for hundreds of years, and some can even live for thousands of years."
"Hundred years, thousands of years." Qingqi murmured and understood a lot in his heart.
Perhaps, in the ancient times, there were many cultivation systems coexisting in the holy world of the heavens, but in the end, the martial arts system with absolute advantages won and continued to this day, and was established in the current holy world of the heavens.
In Qingqi's view, the prevalence of the martial arts system is directly related to the improvement of the life span of the warriors by this system.
After all, most people initially practice with the hope of living longer.
The most obvious advantage of the martial arts system over the immortal system is the longevity of the cultivator.
The Immortal Dao system allows people to live up to a thousand years at most, which is obviously too little. Even if the Jade Three Scriptures are not accurate, it is only a few thousand years at most, and ten thousand years is the limit.
In the martial arts system, warriors in the basic realm can live for thousands of years, and when they reach the divine realm, they can live ten thousand years. However, it is normal for warriors in the holy realm to live hundreds of thousands of years, and even some old monsters can live for millions of years.
But even so, the martial arts system cannot get rid of the limitation of longevity. Even the most powerful Saint Ancestor still has his longevity limit.
Although the martial arts system is much stronger than the immortal system in terms of longevity, this does not mean that immortal cultivators are necessarily weaker than warriors.
Since the Immortal Dao system can be spread and respected in Xianqi Continent, it must have its own unique features. Otherwise, the ancient sage would not need to promote the Immortal Dao system in Xianqi Continent and just follow the martial arts system.
"Mr. Qingqi, judging from your immortal spirit, you should be quite old." At this time, Yu Sanjing looked at Qingqi and said with a smile: "From my old man's point of view, you should be similar to those immortals. How many years do you have?" He’s a hundred years old.”
Qing Qi nodded and smiled, noncommittal.
"Lu'er, so you are here." At this moment, a bright voice sounded, and then a strong figure rushed in.
"Huh?" Facing the sudden intrusion, Nie Tian's eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression couldn't help but change.
He sensed a wave of power in the visitor's body. It was actually a power aura that he had never been exposed to before!
