The sigh of the Wuhen Sage carried an endless sense of weariness and fatigue.
Already elderly, in this mont, he seed to age another hundred years.
"Wuhen, give up,"
A wisp of blue smoke erged from the chest of the Wuhen Sage, transforming into a middle-aged woman in a robe.
Faintly, there were weak fluctuations of the Law surrounding her.
It was indeed the remnant soul of a sage.
She was also a sage of the dicine God Hall from a thousand years ago, the Star Night Sage, the only female sage of the dicine God Hall.
The Star Night Sage gazed at the wrinkled body of the Wuhen Sage, her expression sorrowful: "Is there such a thing as immortality in this world? Do not go against the will of the heavens."
"To refine the Longevity Elixir for the comrades waging war against the Source of Evil, you have exhausted your spirit."
"You should have undergone possession and cultivated anew, yet you’ve extended your life by several centuries, stubbornly remaining in the mortal realm."
"In your current appearance, can any of your old comrades still recognize you?"
The Wuhen Sage closed his eyes bitterly.
To beco an Eight-star Soul Master, the price he paid was far more than just his lifespan and opportunity to cultivate anew.
He devoted himself solely to alchemy, neglecting even the affairs of the dicine God Hall.
Not even his own disciple received attention.
He sighed, "Back then, Ancient Heart was the one who saw correctly; he was the first to perceive the existence of the Source of Evil, realizing that the true apocalyptic enemy was not right before us but in the distant Source of Evil."
"Therefore, he proposed gathering the power of the dicine God Hall to refine the legendary Longevity Elixir and engage in a prolonged campaign."
"Unfortunately, no one believed him; they even thought he was too extre, driving him out of the dicine God Hall."
"But now, his prophecy has co true. The Source of Evil is the true apocalyptic enemy of the Hundred Realms of All Heavens. If it is not eradicated, the turmoil of the Ancient Giants will never cease."
"The sages have fought against the Source of Evil for a thousand years. Back then, in their pri, now they are as old as I am; how many more years can they fight?"
"If only there was a Longevity Elixir now..."
Slowly opening his eyes, they were full of regret: "But only relying on my own strength, it’s beyond my capacity."
"The domain of an Eight-star Soul Master is unreachable no matter what, let alone refining the most difficult Longevity Elixir among the Eighth-grade Spiritual Pills?"
The Star Night Sage sighed, "Let it go, use the hundred years of life you have left to cultivate a sage to replace your position at the dicine God Hall."
"Then peacefully undergo possession and cultivate anew."
The Wuhen Sage expressed bitterness, "Do I have another choice?"
"A thousand years have passed without success, what can another hundred years of life accomplish?"
"From now on, just focus on nurturing my disciple who hasn’t yet shown promise."
"The Eight-star Soul Master... no longer a luxury..."
Just as they were speaking.
An almost imperceptible ripple silently swept across the sky above the dicine God Hall.
For a Seven-star Soul Master, this ripple was like Heavenly Thunder crossing the region, hard to miss.
The Wuhen Sage abruptly looked toward the direction of the Qintian Bureau, his old eyes gradually filled with intense confusion.
Only the remnant soul, the Star Night Sage, beca aware shortly after, unsure: "Did I sense wrong? Is soone refining a Seventh Grade Spirit Pill?"
The confusion on the face of the Wuhen Sage turned into surprise:
"You didn’t sense wrong, soone is indeed refining a Seventh Grade Spirit Pill!"
"And it’s a Seventh Grade dium!"
"Ah?"
The face of the Star Night Sage revealed incredulity: "A Seventh Grade dium Spirit Pill? That’s almost as good as you."
"But, when did Central Earth produce a second Seven-star Soul Master?"
The forr Seven-star Soul Master had long gone to the Source of Evil!
How could there be a second?
Moreover, right within Heavenly State, right under the nose of the dicine God Hall?
As the two were filled with doubt.
Another ripple silently swept across the sky above the dicine God Hall, this ti the ripple was even more noticeable.
The old eyes of the Wuhen Sage rounded, scattering a color of horror: "Seventh Grade Superior!"
"The grade level of this Spirit Pill is still rising!"
"Ah!"
The Star Night Sage gasped, already too stunned to know what to say.
After a thousand years of painstaking cultivation, the Wuhen Sage advanced from refining a Seventh Grade Lower Spirit Pill to the point where he could stably refine a Seventh Grade Superior Spirit Pill.
Becoming the foremost existence in Central Earth.
Even if those Seven-star Soul Masters from the Source of Evil return, they could not match the current Wuhen Sage.
However, there was now a Great Soul Master on par with the Wuhen Sage!
How could this be?
The expression of the Wuhen Sage suddenly turned serious, "Let’s go, have a look."
"Who is this sacred figure refining pills in my Heavenly State!"
Only, when they arrived at the origin of the ripple.
The Wuhen Sage stood frozen on the spot.
Star Night Sage looked down below and said, "Is this the palace of Taicang State stationed in Heavenly State?"
"Is there a Seven-star Soul Master using Taicang State’s palace to refine pills?"
Not surprising she thought it was soone borrowing the space, for Taicang State, even at its peak a thousand years ago, was never heard to have a Soul Master above Sixth Grade.
The Wuhen Sage’s eyes went blank and after a while, he muttered in a daze: "Old man has actually misjudged!"
"That kid actually can refine the Dragon and Phoenix Divine Gallbladder!"
"This can’t be right?"
"Can he be like , a Seven-star Soul Master?"
"Or a Soul Master capable of refining a Seventh Grade dium Spirit Pill?"
The Star Night Sage was full of doubt: "Kid? You know this Seven-star Soul Master?"
The Wuhen Sage’s face darkened, "Yeah, made a lasting impression."
The Star Night Sage was amazed: "This Seven-star Soul Master who is on par with you is actually a young person?"
"Does Central Earth really have such a gifted individual? Truly incredible!"
"I must et them, to witness their grace."
The Wuhen Sage hurriedly said, "Don’t! Stay away from him!"
"If he calls you ’senior, hold on,’ run imdiately, don’t stop!"
"Hmm?"
The Star Night Sage was puzzled, why this?
At this mont.
A hunchbacked old woman with gray hair, holding a staff, descended from the moon suspended in the sky.
Surrounded by the rhythm of the Law, she was unmistakably a sage!
"Leng Yue Sage?" Star Night Sage expressed sentint: "After a thousand years, you’ve grown old too."
Recalling a thousand years ago, Leng Yue Sage was a famous beauty in Heavenly State, known as the Moon Palace Chang’e.
A thousand years later, she was already aged, her beauty faded.
Being reminded of her age, Leng Yue Sage was imdiately displeased, sarcastically said:
"Of course flesh and blood grow old, unlike so old undying remnant soul, unchanged over a thousand years."
The face of the Star Night Sage stiffened, growing angry: "Aren’t you also old and undying?"
Leng Yue Sage wanted to retaliate with insults but was stopped by Wuhen Sage: "Stop quarreling, don’t disturb him refining pills."
"Hmm?"
Leng Yue Sage looked at the palace below, then at Wuhen Sage with an old and bewildered eye:
"Isn’t it you refining pills?"
She sensed strong Spiritual Pill fluctuations, thinking it was the Wuhen Sage refining a top-level Great Pill, coming to investigate.
Unexpectedly, Wuhen Sage, like her, turned out to be part of the audience.
Wuhen Sage shrugged, as if to say, does it look like I’m refining pills?
He sighed: "From now on, I won’t be the sole Soul Master of Seventh Grade Superior Spirit Pills."
"Soone will sit at the sa level as ."
Unexpectedly, just as he finished speaking.
A visible ripple of seven colors wildly expanded from within the palace, sweeping across all directions.
The old eyes of the Wuhen Sage rounded, horrified as he exclaid: "Perfect Seventh Grade Great Pill!"
