Chapter 475: Chapter 358 Chaos Yuan Absolutely Divine Body_1

[Depletion of one Enlightenment opportunity: A disciple meeting the conditions has been found, eight hundred million li away.]

The notification sounded, and a familiar arrow appeared in front of Li Cheng, pointing into the distance.

Li Cheng extended his Divine Sense and saw the person the arrow was pointing to.

“Eh? No Cultivation level at all?”

The person indicated by the arrow was an old man who looked like a rotting tree, devoid of any Cultivation.

“This is quite unusual; the disciples who meet the conditions are all monstrous talents, but this person…”

After a thorough examination, Li Cheng saw that not only were the old man’s veins blocked, but they were also tangled in a mess, clearly impossible for Cultivation and utterly wasted.

Moreover, with no Cultivation level and being over eighty years old, he probably wouldn’t live for many more years.

Of course, this was only the case for ordinary people. In Li Cheng’s hands, an ordinary human who had a hundred years of lifespan could easily be made to live for thousands of years.

At this moment, the old man was in a small city, holding a cloth bag in his hands, tremblingly dividing the silver coins inside it among the beggars on the streets.

After arriving in the Divine Realm, Li Cheng had seen ordinary people without Cultivation levels in Hidden Spirit Village, but even those people lived for no less than two hundred years.

This person was somewhat odd; he was indeed over eighty years old in bone age, with not much lifespan remaining, meaning he originally only had little more than eighty years of lifespan.

In the Divine Realm, even common people, nourished by the Heaven and Earth Divine Qi, live for two hundred years as a norm, so what’s with this person?

“Thank you, Old Ye!”

After the old man divided out all the silver coins, what he received in return were the thanks from those beggars.

The old man’s aged face carried a smile as he leaned on his cane, walking toward the outskirts of the city.

Not long after, the old man reached the riverbank outside the city, where he found himself alone. He let out a long sigh and said, “Farewell!”

With that, the old man put down his cane and fell backward into the river.

In the skies above the Confucian Sect, Li Cheng was taken aback. Was this a search for death?

What a coincidence? I observe for half an hour, and this man seeks death…

Shaking his head, Li Cheng’s figure flashed and after several instances of Instantaneous Movement, he arrived at the riverside.

With a casual wave of his hand, the old man floated out from the river, landing in front of Li Cheng.

“Cough cough… Greetings, Supreme Deity!”

The old man coughed a few times and quickly knelt to pay his respects.

“What thoughts are you unable to reconcile?” Li Cheng asked.

The old man looked up at Li Cheng and shook his head, “There are none, on the contrary, in the fleeting years of a human life, I’ve seen through everything and have no attachments left. Now aging and weak, while I still have a bit of strength, it’s better to end things by myself and not be a burden to others.”

Li Cheng could not help but chuckle, “You claim to have seen through everything in just a few decades? Interesting, even the Deities who have lived for hundreds of millions of years wouldn’t dare to say that.”

“Everyone has their own life; I’m just a mortal, what I seek naturally differs from that of the Supreme Deities,” the old man said with neither arrogance nor subservience.

Li Cheng nodded with a smile, “What do you seek?”

“When I was young, I too longed to soar through the heavens and travel unfettered, but reality always differs from dreams. Later, I recognized and accepted reality. This lifetime has been enough.”

The smile remained on Li Cheng’s face, “If you ask me, you haven’t truly recognized reality. The soaring through the heavens and travelling unfettered that you once longed for is very close to you.”

The old man shook his head with a laugh, “Supreme Deity jests. When I was young, I tested several times but was nothing more than a waste body, and dreams… I’m not qualified to have them.”

“A waste body?” Li Cheng pondered, then continued, “If this were a trillion years ago, your body would have been a top-tier Divine Body, absolutely a peak existence in the Divine Realm.”

The old man showed a look of astonishment, then shook his head again, “Does the Supreme Deity mean that in the present, my body is indeed a waste body?”

After a pause, the old man added, “It doesn’t matter; I have long since let go. Now, I just want to end my life sooner and not burden others.”

Saying so, the old man gave a respectful bow, “Having spoken with a Supreme Deity before my death, my life has been worthwhile!”

“What is your name?” Li Cheng asked.

The old man was surprised and flattered; a Supreme Deity in his eyes actually inquired about his name?

In his astonishment, the old man quickly knelt again and said, “My name is Ye Yijian!”

“Ye Yijian? Deep into the night, the crane penetrates the autumn sky’s blue, A chill runs through the ten thousand li with a single sword thrust. With such a name, it’s a pity not to become a Cultivator!” Li Cheng said.

The old man laughed self-deprecatingly, “I chose that name when I was young; I’ve already forgotten my real name. I’m getting old!”

Without saying more, Li Cheng waved his hand, and copious Life Essence Qi surged toward the old man, rejuvenating his withered body at a visibly rapid pace!

Ye Yijian felt himself becoming vibrantly alive with increasing clarity!

After a few dozen breaths, Ye Yijian had transformed into a young man who appeared to be no more than twenty years old.

Li Cheng casually formed a mirror-like surface in front of Ye Yijian and said with a smile, “You do have the look of a gallant hero.”

Looking at himself in the mirror, Ye Yijian was stunned, and it took him several seconds to regain his senses. He hurriedly tried to bow, only to find he couldn’t move at all!

After several attempts to no avail, Ye Yijian quickly looked to Li Cheng, “Supreme Deity has reversed my age, may I ask for your command?”

The smile on Li Cheng’s face undiminished, “You’ve given me three respectful bows; naturally, I consider them a gesture of seeking discipleship.”

Ye Yijian stood there dumbfounded, he was ready for death, and not only was he saved by the Supreme Deity before him, but he had also become a disciple without even realizing it?

But he had no talent for Cultivation. Even if he had reverted to youth, his talent wouldn’t change; it was still that of a waste.

But then it dawned on him, could the Supreme Deity before him change his talent?
