Chapter 10 The Secret of the Top Level of the Magnolia Continent
Chapter 10 The Secret of the Top Level of the Magnolia Continent
"Ten thousand years may seem like a long time, but for a Saint-level expert, as long as they are not killed, surviving ten thousand years is very simple," Huo Dan said with a faint smile.
"Does the senior know how long a Saint-level expert can live?" Karl asked with some curiosity.
"I don't know either. The longest I've ever seen one has lived is only a few hundred thousand years, and the longest I've heard of is only a million years. As for whether there are any that have lived even longer, maybe there are, maybe there aren't," Huo Dan said, shaking his head.
Upon hearing this, Karl felt a slight sense of relief. Time is a good thing. At least with the points provided by Starfire City every day, it would only take a few years to purchase a high-level aptitude enhancement for his clansmen, enough to raise them to the strength of a level nine warrior. With the support of the clan's cultivation, it might not be impossible for them to reach the Saint Realm.
Even if one has only just entered this sacred realm and is unable to make any progress, with enough lifespan, there may still be ways in the future. If all else fails, one can wait until one becomes a god and have one's family disciples refine a godhood.
After all, only when the family and territory are of a higher level can they provide better support for cultivation.
"Since Saint-level experts can live for millions of years, even if, as you said, one appears every hundred years, there should be tens of thousands of Saint-level experts. But I have rarely heard of Saint-level experts on the Yulan Continent. It seems that Saint-level experts are very rare on the Yulan Continent," Karl Taros asked.
Sacred Realms are rare on the Yulan Continent, and Karl is well aware of this.
The Yulan Continent is merely a material plane. Below the Saint Realm, some geniuses may be able to cultivate from an ignorant youth to the Saint Realm in just a few decades. However, once they reach the Saint Realm level, their progress will be dozens or even hundreds of times over in those few decades. Nowadays, which of the top experts on the Yulan Continent has not cultivated for thousands of years?
The cultivation speed is slow, and with such a plane guarding the Yulan Continent, many Saint Realm experts with some ambitions will eventually choose to go to the higher-level God Realm after stagnating on the Yulan Continent for hundreds of years. Of these Saint Realm experts who go to the God Realm, eight or nine out of ten will perish in the various battles of the God Realm. Most of those who are lucky enough to survive cannot afford the qualification to return to the material plane.
This is only part of the reason. More than 8,000 years ago, Yulan suffered a world-destroying war. According to historical records, there were several other continents outside the Yulan continent. After the world-destroying war, these continents were all sunk. More than 3,000 years after the world-destroying war, there was an invasion by powerful beings from other dimensions.
The Yulan Continent is merely a material plane, and material planes typically only produce a small number of lower-level gods and a very small number of middle-level gods. At least without going to the god plane, the cultivation environment in the material plane is far inferior to that in the god plane.
This is why the guardians of planes are usually only mid-level gods.
The war that destroyed the world, the invasion from another dimension, and the powerful beings who could cross over from the outside world, were all top-tier beings among the high gods. If the beings who caused these two wars were not figures that gods could not match, the Yulan Continent would probably have been destroyed long ago.
Karl knew all this, but he couldn't show it at all, because he was just a wild Saint-level warrior who had crossed the social class by sheer luck. In terms of resources and information, he was far inferior to those forces with sufficient heritage in the eyes of outsiders.
Therefore, information that even established holy sites can know is something that Karl cannot know now, and Karl is well aware of this, which is why he asked the question knowingly.
"Why? Of course, it's because they've all gone to other planes," Hodan said with a smile.
In the Magnolia Plane, there is a being who appears to be at the Great Perfection stage. Huo Dan, who used to be able to act arrogantly in the material plane, can now only obediently fulfill his responsibilities as the plane's guardian. However, Huo Dan believes that those who can reach the Holy Realm will understand the scarcity of the material plane after cultivating for several hundred years. At that time, he will be able to persuade many Holy Realm members to join his family.
According to the experience of the plane guardians, those who can become saints on their own in the material plane will not find it difficult to become lower gods within a thousand years after entering the god plane, and will most likely become middle gods within ten thousand years. Those who can become gods on their own in the material plane will also have a great chance of becoming upper gods within one hundred thousand years.
After all, Hodan was a member of the Renals family, a powerful family that had a chief god's messenger. In the material plane, apart from those geniuses who could cultivate to the Saint Realm on their own, or even become gods on their own, there was nothing else that was valued.
As for the guardian plane, if it weren't for the existence of a suspected Great Perfection realm here, the entire Yulan Continent would have been ruled by Huo Dan long ago. At that time, every Holy Domain would be a potential successor for the Reinals family.
This is a fertile ground that, given enough time, can continuously provide the backbone of the family.
With Huo Dan's explanation, Karl learned more about the secrets of the Yulan Continent. After all, his understanding of the Yulan Continent was only based on the original story, while this was the real world.
Carl, who has lived for over two hundred years, never believed that the world he lived in was just a book. He was more inclined to think that the world had always existed, but that someone in his previous life had intercepted the information about this world and thus written down part of the story of this world.
The story is only one-sided, and now that Huo Dan is willing to explain the secrets belonging to the top level of the Yulan Continent, Karl is naturally delighted.
No matter how eloquently Hordan described the divine plane, Karl ultimately chose to refuse when Hordan invited him to go there.
"Lord Hordan, I believe you must be a great god-level powerhouse, while I am merely a junior who has just entered the Holy Realm. I haven't even grasped the power of heaven and earth yet. If I were to go to the God Plane with my current strength, I would only be disgracing you."
Lacking any connections, Karl naturally had to say the nice things. Although the Panlong World had very few things that could accelerate cultivation, it wasn't entirely devoid of them.
There are other good things like this on the Yulan Continent, such as that spatial rift.
However, to enter that place, one must at least wait until Karl's strength reaches the peak of the Saint Realm.
Being rejected was nothing new to Huo Dan. After all, he didn't expect someone who was only at the early stage of the Saint Realm to dare to go to the God Plane. This was just a heads-up.
"Alright, but once your strength reaches the peak of the Saint Realm, if you want to go to the God Realm at that time, you can come to the Northern Ice Plains to find me."
After saying that, without waiting for Karl's reply, Hodan's figure disappeared from the spot.
Looking at the empty stone table, Karl felt little emotion. The divine plane was desirable, but it was not something he should be involved with now.
