"Originally, he was about to be severely injured by us, but he managed to approach the God of rchants and changed the side effects on him!"
"Truly, it’s a matter of ti and fate, destiny is with him! If it weren’t for the appearance of the God of rchants, he would surely die!"
Many strong individuals besieging Xu Changsheng discussed in secret, showing reluctance on their faces.
But with the reality right before them, they should also consider where their own path leads.
"Everyone, we cannot attack him!"
"Yes, as long as we don’t attack him or call him ’Your Majesty’, what can he do to us? He can’t drain our lifespan!"
"Yes, nowadays, the masses attack him madly, and their lifespan is reduced by almost ten thousand tis, leaving only a lifespan of a hundred years."
As such, these strong ones decided to lie dormant in secret.
But they soon discovered a problem.
The whole world was being wildly accelerated by the divine power of ti!
And they were not accelerated, which ant they would fall behind the tis.
Just like that mythical legend...
A day in the sky, a year on the earth!
In the following years, they watched helplessly as one young person after another rapidly grew up, cultivated, broke through, and even possessed combat power comparable to theirs, leaving all sorts of mythical stories of the new era.
And they were almost suffocated by the tidal waves of ti crashing over them again and again.
No one could bear seeing a newborn quickly grow up and then defeat them.
Every ten years, those who opposed the Pure Yang True Immortal and the remnants who besieged him would gather in a tavern.
"Everyone, I can’t hold on anymore."
"Traitor!"
"Everyone, for the next decade, I won’t co here; I will chant ’Long live the Immortal Venerable.’"
"You traitors! Aren’t you afraid of shortening your lifespan?"
"Foolish! The rules of heaven and earth have drastically changed! We need to adapt to the new era, everyone feels ti speeding up, then no one will lose lifespan."
"When everyone bears the side effects, then there are no side effects! Everyone is bearing the state of enlightennt, which is a benefit given by the Immortal Venerable!"
As a result, more and more stubborn people and remnants of the old days began to shout "Long live the Immortal Venerable," yielding to the tis and joining the rolling tide.
Ten years later.
The number of people gathering grew fewer, and everyone slowly lost the urge to resist.
Another ten years, this ti at the tavern gathering, only seven people remained.
Another ten years.
This ti, the number of attendees increased because almost everyone joined the "Long live" ranks.
The resistance organization from back then now gathered here again, but only as a place for exchanging information and reuniting with old friends.
Another ten years.
Until the last strong individual nad Li Wan stood alone on the ground, watching the rapidly spinning world around him, looking at the traitors in the tavern:
"In the old days, those unwilling to yield and refuse to chant ’Long live’ are only left with ?"
"No, I still refuse to yield!!"
He looked at his companions with a truly stubborn temper, resolutely refusing to praise the Immortal Venerable even to the death.
But as the days passed, he watched other lives not in the sa realm or dinsion of the world as himself, and the sense of loneliness in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
The tenth decade passed, another gathering.
"Li Wan, you’re going to fall behind the tis next."
"Fall behind the tis? Then falling behind is also fine, dying like this is good, I’m going on a journey next."
The eleventh decade.
"Li Wan, did you hear? Three years ago, the forr Wishing Witch Ying Qing had a great eting with the Pure Yang True Immortal in the Immortal realm. All the revered gods gathered, an unprecedented grand event!
No one knows what they discussed, but they successfully reached a collaboration to popularize [Magical Treasures] and [immortal power]. We’re about to have Immortal Bodies."
The era is exploding, with new technologies and news coming every year.
"Huh? You didn’t hear? Sorry, forgot your ti flow, your realm is becoming slower, and divine thoughts can’t keep up with us, so I have to speak~slowly~to~you~"
Li Wan stiffened his neck, blushing as if deeply insulted: "I’m not slow to react; I just, just..."
He spoke in the slow tone of an elderly person, which was sowhat amusing, but the forced expression could hardly hide a trace of lancholy.
Another ten years, another gathering.
As soon as Li Wan entered the shop, all the drinking people looked at him with a smile, and so called out, "Li Wan, you’ve got more scars on your face! Did you get hit by accident because you’re too slow?"
"Now many people have Magical Treasures; even a newborn child is Sixth Tier, with innate immortal power, much stronger than you, did you get beaten by a child?"
Li Wan did not answer, said to the counter, "Two bowls of wine, and a dish of Immortal beans."
Another ten years.
This ti at the gathering, they found that Li Wan did not co.
They continued discussing:
"Now, our ’Your Majesty’ got stronger again."
"Yes, it’s no longer -1 year lifespan for attacking him once, but -10 years lifespan, making us effectively ten tis faster."
"This is our great Supre Immortal Venerable!"
"Why don’t we see Li Wan?"
"Hahaha, maybe he’s too embarrassed to co."
Into the fifteenth decade, Li Wan still did not appear.
Everyone began to get nervous, trying to inquire about his whereabouts, and eventually got an ambiguous conclusion.
"Heard he was passing through a small town in the Wishing Witch South Country, accidentally bumped to death by two kids playing with candied haws."
"How co he didn’t dodge?"
"He didn’t dodge, in everyone’s eyes, he was like a slow-moving statue, the two kids even thought they crashed into a stationary statue at the roadside square until they saw the blood explode, and realized they crashed into a person."
"Exploded blood? Is he a piece of paper? Hit by a few kids and exploded? Really, he didn’t cultivate the new era immortal power, just nurturing the three low-rank Divine Objects’ essence, energy, and spirit, too fragile."
"How pitiful, the top-tier monster of strong defense in the old days, now as weak as paper." So sighed, the drastic change of the era was extrely apparent on them.
"Yes, heard those kids cried miserably, covered in blood, it would probably be a long-lasting childhood shadow."
After receiving confird news, the crowd at the tavern gathering sighed deeply, lanting.
It was then that everyone confird the news—Li Wan indeed died.
Died in a way almost comical, bordering on a joke.
The last stubborn strong individual from the old tis unwilling to integrate into the new world thus passed away, which also ant the new era had turned over a new Chapter thoroughly.
...
Pawnshop headquarters.
Liu Jun was organizing the shelves, staring into silence at a treasure recently brought into the shop.
[Na: Li Wan’s Stubborn Wristband]
[Introduction: In endless loneliness, the last pure essence, energy, and spirit Immortal of the old era, Li Wan, held onto his last pride.]
[Characteristic: Old Day Compatibility 100]
Liu Jun raised an eyebrow, "A real talent indeed, when the forest is big, all sorts of birds exist."
However, this object is indeed a very precious treasure.
In Liu Jun’s eyes, this thing could be comparable to the most precious batch of Magical Treasures now.
No exception.
Why?
Because it had a 100 compatibility with so yet-to-be-seen special Divine Object.
Unfortunately, this guy was born at the wrong ti.
If a Divine Object matching the characteristic appears, this stubborn mule might beco a host for a destined Divine Object, a new Divine Spirit!
Of course.
This "stubborn mule type Divine Object" might never appear.
But it didn’t stop Liu Jun from treasuring this Divine Object, storing it in his top-tier private treasure trove collection room,
"A good start, it’s the first treasure with a 100 Divine Object compatibility."
"Hope that in the vast future, more could be collected."
He placed the wristband in the cabinet on display on the shelf,
"Li Wan, I acknowledge your final stubbornness of the old guard, perhaps in so era, a Divine Object matching you will appear, soone in the future might use your talent to achieve a new era’s god."
