"Ten thousand years is too long, a few hundred years is about right, continuing to recuperate like this has no benefit."
The old fisherman's tone became more severe.
Chen Xia heard the change in the old fisherman's tone, so he lowered his head and mumbled: "Mm."
Anyway, he pretended to have lost his Dao heart and didn't want to be bothered with anything.
In fact, Chen Xia didn't even have a Dao heart.
He didn't need a Dao heart for cultivation, all he needed to do was add points.
He had painstakingly added millions of points over tens of thousands of years, how could he still not beat those Emperors who had only cultivated for tens of thousands of years?
Heaven rewards diligence, the accumulation over hundreds of thousands of years was not something that just tens of thousands of years could compete with.
Moreover, combat power was secondary on the path of cultivation.
What mattered most was having a long lifespan.
First leisurely live for twenty thousand years, then come and challenge Chen Xia.
The old fisherman said a few more caring words after, all meaningless chatter. When he was about to leave, he suddenly said:
"You can go to the Heavenly Pavilion in the swordpoint direction, inner disciples have the privilege of choosing a secret technique from the Falling Sea Realm, you can go take a look to see if there are any suitable ones."
"If you're interested in our immortal lineage's specific realm divisions, you can also go to the Heavenly Pavilion to look them up and understand, if not then forget it, it's not that important anyway, as long as you can become stronger it's fine."
"Okay." Chen Xia nodded, still with his head lowered looking dispirited.
The old fisherman glanced at him and didn't linger any longer before flickering away.
The cave dwelling became quiet again.
Chen Xia looked at the ground, thinking about his plans going forward.
The old fisherman had agreed to give him a few hundred years, which was definitely not enough for Chen Xia. It had taken him over four hundred years to reach the Yuan Ying realm in the little heaven and earth, that was his apparent strength.
But his true combat power was the power of Nuwa, roughly equivalent to the peak of Yuan Ying realm.
Right now his strength combined that of two Yuan Yings, and he also had the divine abilities of the true dragon's qi and the Dao of Time, he couldn't say he was unmatched within the realm, but at least half unmatched.
But that was still not enough for the current situation, he needed more power.
Chen Xia thought about the time freeze technique, but the answer was it was completely unfeasible.
Because he couldn't freeze time over the entire Great Myriad Worlds.
Nor could he descend through the worlds, because his previous divine sense had not returned yet, if he split his divine sense again, Chen Xia would lose control.
Leaving behind a portion of his divine sense in the small world was already his limit.
This could also be considered one of his trump cards.
Chen Xia sighed, feeling that the path of adding points was truly arduous.
If he could really live to a few million years, by then he should be invincible.
Chen Xia lazily stood up, intending to go to the Heavenly Pavilion at the swordpoint to take a look and find some suitable mystic arts.
The journey was not far.
But Chen Xia walked very slowly, strolling along the sword vein roads.
There were other inner disciples along the way, all outstanding existences from the outside world, and some were even ancient races, little demons with Demon Venerable bones, ancient beasts with innate divine eyes and so on.
Chen Xia had never greeted them or interacted with them, only occasionally catching glimpses.
But these ancient races knew Chen Xia was one of the third emperor's scions among the Blue Sky Sword Sea inner disciples.
Emperors were rare, but emperor's scions were many.
This was a phrase the Blue Sky Sword Sea elders often had on their lips.
But were there really that many emperor's scions?
Among the current hundred plus inner disciples, the baseline talent was ancient races, and there were even supreme races and mythical races.
But there were only three emperor's scions.
One was the saint child of an external race who possessed Demon Venerable bones, it was said he had come to Blue Sky Sword Sea to cultivate, only for the emperor techniques of Blue Sky Sword Sea.
The second was a peerless genius of Blue Sky Sword Sea who had avoided two great eras, only now emerging, said to have a pair of divine eyes that could discern three thousand great Daos, and an immortal physique that made him unmatched within the realm.
The third was Chen Xia.
Nothing special about him, it was said he just had very good fortune.
The other two emperor's scions had already taken notice of Chen Xia.
Chen Xia himself did not strive or grasp for anything, but others wanted to strive and grasp.
He was positioned on this chessboard, and in a critical position at that, destined to be "looked after".
Fortunately there was nothing happening for now. Chen Xia slowly arrived below the Heavenly Pavilion, looking up at the thousand-zhang tall pavilion suspended like a giant sword stabbed in, majestic and imposing.
Guarding the gate was a large black robe, unable to make out the figure within, only appearing as a moving black robe.
Chen Xia approached and politely asked, "May I enter?"
The black robe fluttered, and an ethereal voice emanated from within, "Chen Xia, inner disciple, you may choose one secret technique from the Falling Sea Realm, you are permitted to enter the first three floors."
Chen Xia nodded. Just as he lifted his foot to walk in, he suddenly stopped and asked the black robe, "Can you recommend some mystic arts? Like those that burn longevity to increase combat power, longevity is unimportant, I just want to increase a bit."
The black robe was silent for a while, probably never having heard such a strange request before. After a while, it finally replied:
"There are book spirits within the Heavenly Pavilion, you may ask them when you go in."
"Okay, okay." Chen Xia nodded, no longer lingering and strode into the Heavenly Pavilion.
As soon as he stepped inside, he had already reached the third floor. There were no bookshelves or books around, only groups of seven-colored halos.
Pure white little people flew out from the halos, floating in midair with indifferent expressions. One of them asked Chen Xia:
"What type of secret technique are you looking for? Give me a general category and I can help you find it."
"Something like burning longevity." Chen Xia replied, somewhat expectantly.
The book spirit waved its hand in the halos and several ancient fuzzy pieces of leather parchment appeared before it. At the same time it said:
"There are not many secret techniques for burning longevity recorded, only one that reaches the Mountain Moving realm, it can be considered an ancient secret method, do you want it?"
"What are its specifics?" Chen Xia curiously inquired.
The book spirit waved its hand and the ancient looking piece of leather parchment in the middle floated over and landed on Chen Xia's head. It said at the same time:
"See for yourself."
Chen Xia looked up as countless words frantically flooded his mind, describing the effects of this secret technique.
Lifeblood Oblivion Technique.
To kill others, first kill oneself.
I cut one hundred years from my longevity, in exchange for eighty years of your lifespan.
The young kill the youthful, the youthful kill the middle-aged, the middle-aged kill the elderly.
