Emperor of Nine Suns

A bunch of looks containing surprise, shock, and disbelief came together, and the disciples stared at Chu Chen like a god.

Chu Chen rubbed his temples and winked at Feng Qiang.

Feng Qiang nodded, and then waved vigorously to everyone.

"Okay, senior brother, that's the end of today's puzzle solving. If you have any questions, please save them for the next time you solve puzzles."

As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar.

Because Chu Chen's performance was so amazing, everyone had a lot of questions in their minds and couldn't wait to find out.

Now that they heard that the solution was completed, many people felt extremely disappointed.

Under the expectant gazes of everyone, Chu Chen stood up from the stone chair and walked straight out of the hall.

Many disciples even walked directly to Chu Chen and wanted to stop him to ask some questions, but they were stopped and pushed away by Feng Qiang, who had quick eyes and quick hands.

"Why are you in a hurry? Senior Brother will come again next time. If you have any questions you want to ask, you can do it as soon as possible next time."

Everyone had no choice but to accept this proposal, but the shock brought to them by the new senior brother Chu Chen was far from over, and there was a lot of unfinished discussion in the book tower.

After leaving the book tower, Chu Chen walked directly towards the cave in the sea of ​​pine trees.

But before he entered the cave, his chest shook for a while, and a little white mouse head with red hair stuck out: "Boy, what did you just say to that second senior brother? Why did I take a nap and wake up to see He kowtows to you.”

"Oh, I saved his life, so it's natural for me to accept his kowtow."

Chu Chen raised the corner of his mouth and smiled lightly.

"What's going on? What problem did he encounter?" Seeing Chu Chen's mysterious look, the little hamster's curiosity was piqued and he asked quickly.

"The problem he encountered is that he has been practicing recently and has been retreating instead of making progress. No matter what method he uses, it is useless. I used my spiritual sense to explore his cultivation and found that he has actually entered the state of 'spiritual decline' status."

"Spiritual failure?"

The little hamster asked in surprise,

"He still looks very young, but has his spirit started to decline?"

The so-called spiritual decline means that when a monk reaches a certain age, his body begins to wither and die from the source of his spiritual power due to aging.

This is an irreversible state, just like mortals aging, sickness and death. It is a sign that a monk's life is about to come to an end.

No one in this world can live forever, even the legendary gods and immortals will one day decline.

Although monks have a much longer lifespan than ordinary people due to their advanced cultivation, there is a limit to this.

Generally speaking, ordinary mortals in the ordinary world will die of old age within a hundred years at most.

After cultivating to the Lingxi realm, because the origin of life is greatly broadened, one can live about two hundred years.

Once the cultivation reaches the level of Linghe Realm, the monk's lifespan will be increased to at least three hundred years.

In the eyes of secular people, such people are almost on the level of land gods.

Of course, if there are some prehistoric alien species with the bloodline of ancient mythical beasts, their lifespans will be unimaginably long. This is a kind of talent.

The second senior brother from Duxu Peak looked like he was in his thirties, and he didn't look like those old monks at all. It surprised the little hamster that such a person could also be spiritually declining.

"How old has Zhao Shi lived?"

"I don't know. I can't tell his age, and I can't tell his cultivation at all. But he has indeed begun to decline spiritually. Even the source of spiritual power in his body has begun to wither. It is obvious that he has reached his end. By then, he only has ten days to live at most."

"Then how did you help him solve this problem?"

The surprise in the little hamster's expression was undisguised, "That's spiritual decline. It's basically irreversible. Do you actually have a way to solve it?"

"There is no complete solution, but it can be alleviated a little bit."

Chu Chen smiled and shook his head, "Do you still remember the mysterious old man in green in the Yaogong Forest? He once taught me a formula to ward off the cold. This formula is so magical that it can reactivate the source of spiritual power in the human body. So I Passing it to Zhao Shi should help him extend his life for a while."

"So that's it."

The little hamster nodded clearly, "Speaking of which, that formula is indeed very magical. Even with my knowledge, I don't know where the formula comes from. With the help of that mental method, this Zhao Shi can at least It looks like I can live two or three months longer.”

"Actually, he only needs to live another month."

Chu Chen said with a smile, "A month from now will be the time for Duxu Peak to awaken once in a hundred years. When Duxu Peak is activated, a large amount of spiritual power containing the breath of life will wash away it, which should improve his spiritual decline and make him stronger. Its lifespan is greatly increased.”

The little hamster nodded: "Yes, this mysterious second senior brother owes you a huge favor now. Let's see what secrets he hides."

"Unlike you, a voyeur, I am not interested in other people's secrets."

Chu Chen shook his head and reached out to push open the thick stone door of the cave.

Stepping into the cave, Chu Chen's sensitive ears suddenly heard a faint sound of water, as if something was churning in the water. This actually shocked him slightly.

Could it be that some wild beast broke into this cave?

With a vertical movement of his figure, Chu Chen turned into a gray shadow and quickly flew towards the direction where the sound of water came from.

His speed was very fast, and it took him only a few breaths to reach the direction where the sound of water came from... the white jade hot spring pool in the cave.

Then, he froze.

In front of him, the hot spring pool was as warm as white jade. The heat was rising, and a faint white mist enveloped the entire space, making the entire cave seem as beautiful as falling into a fairyland.

And in this hazy white mist, a graceful snow-white body stood up from the pool. The crystal-clear and flawless skin is like creamy white jade, dazzlingly white.

Her long purple hair was draped wetly behind her back, with a few naughty hair tips draped in front of her plump and round breasts, perfectly outlining those two ruby-pink grapes...

Looking down involuntarily, Chu Chen's head suddenly buzzed as if it was about to explode.

In front of him, Zi Xi, who had just come out of the bath, was slightly stunned, her crystal eyes glazed over for a moment, and she subconsciously reached out to cover her key parts.
