Suddenly, he saw a familiar book on the desk... "Soronan Quotations," filled with famous quotes from Sauron. The most peculiar thing was, he even had an artistic autograph.
"Indeed, Sauron has been here and t the Netherworld Ancestor."
Not knowing how long he waited, the footsteps brought Levi’s thoughts back.
"Welco to the Netherworld Ancestor Hall... Levi."
A magnetic and soft female voice sounded, the crystal curtain lifted, and a figure dressed in a gray robe, with a sowhat pale complexion, walked out, raising that perfect face.
Levi t her gaze, and from her eyes, it seed he saw the lifetis of billions of creatures across the Multidinsional Plane and the traces of ancient Nether years.
This was definitely a boss!
A true Ancient being!
Incarnation and will executor of the Underworld Source River!
"Greetings, Netherworld Ancestor."
"Do you want Holy Dragon Augustus to join the Underworld?"
"You could say that. Currently, the Underworld is warring with the Abyss, having another level-10 is a good thing, that’s how I see it."
"You’re not wrong in thinking that... However, do you know, that in a short ti, each new Nether Emperor ans countless lifespans of creatures in unknown corners of this Universe will end prematurely due to various accidents?" The Netherworld Ancestor’s gaze was piercing.
"I don’t know," Levi answered truthfully.
The Netherworld Ancestor stood with hands behind, looking at the Mother River of the Sky Do:
"The Mother River isn’t the creator of lifespans;
it just controls and allocates them. Our Land of Darkness is growing and expanding steadily.
But its speed is limited, resources are limited, and within an epoch node, the civilizations and level-10s it can accommodate are limited.
As a wizard, you surely understand.
For a mortal rookie to grow into a primordial soul wizard, the resources consud are massive, not to ntion Grand Wizards, Legendary Wizards.
Any other transcendent system is the sa.
Those born strong beings, demons, Gods, Nether Emperors... they too consu many resources, what are the resources?
You consu dicine, potions;
consu Aether Stone, minerals, these are visible resources, there are also invisible ones, the most direct being lifespan.
Except for those of us born early God-demons and Nether Emperors from the Four Primordial Worlds, most lives in Nora and the Multidinsional Plane are created by the Land of Darkness, but from the mont they are born, they don’t entirely belong to the Land of Darkness.
They have their thoughts, ideas;
through emotions, communication, creation, they expand the width of life, these things, the Land of Darkness can’t control.
It can only appropriately limit the length of life, which is lifespan, because life seeks evolution and transcendence, constantly breaking the original length.
Like other resources, lifespan is relatively fixed in the short term, but stable and growing in the long term;
it’s a "pool."
But its growth speed can’t keep up with the growth speed of those creative beings. For example, you wizards... you grow too fast.
You discover knowledge, use knowledge, pursue truth in your heart. This process is accompanied by a resource consumption speed far surpassing other civilizations.
Hence, wizards don’t have high lifespans, Nora is a part of the Land of Darkness, if its lifespan were as long as the Dragon Clan, perhaps there would be good, perhaps bad...
But this Universe itself doesn’t have an opportunity to trial and error.
Therefore, wizards’ lifespans can only grow slowly, in small portions. There’s an invisible hand controlling all this, that’s us in the Underworld.
We’re controllers, not producers. The newly born Nether Emperors have to maintain long-term lifespans, not coming out of thin air.
You often participate in the Netherworld Market in Hell;
the "Joss Paper" used by devils is actually the "lifespan" materialized post-manipulation.
It circulates in Hell, eventually returning to the Mother River, repeating cycle. The Underworld dares not expand freely because of this lifespan limitation.
Actually, for civilizations as a whole, too much lifespan isn’t absolutely good. Do you think wizard civilization’s interest solidification is severe?"
Upon hearing the question, Levi answered frankly:
"Quite severe, long-standing family and sect forces hold the resources, ordinary nomadic wizards and wizards find it hard to rise."
The Netherworld Ancestor laughed: "Then if wizards’ lifespans were extended tenfold?"
Levi thought for a mont and said: "Maybe it would be more severe."
The Netherworld Ancestor picked up "Soronan Quotations" and flipped through it casually:
"Certainly, longevity species with power and long life would completely monopolize everything, Abyss, astral world, Nightmare including Underworld, are all like this.
Back then, Sauron descended to the Underworld, made a future agreent with . Underworld and Nora co-war Abyss, together surviving the subsequent Great Tribulation, advance and retreat together.
Underworld supports Nora, letting Nora, this creative civilization, rise swiftly, Nora as a sharp sword pierces Abyss, balancing other Three Realms for us.
He asked a request, to offer each Legendary Wizard a rebirth opportunity, I asked why not extend their lifespan to twenty thousand years.
Why go through this trouble?
He said: Ten thousand years is too long, only fight for the present mont.
Ten thousand years is the most suitable ti span for human potential, maintaining creativity, and minimizing solidification to ensure circulation.
Neither high nor low, can cause concerns.
He said, with human wisdom, it’s enough to rely on self-ability to fight with Heaven, to snatch a thread of life force bit by bit from the Land of Darkness.
He said, the innate beings of the Four Primordial Worlds, they seem strong, but their long lifespans weaken their awareness of concerns and sensitivity to ti.
