The Path of Evolution

Two figures came galloping from different directions and landed at the foot of the Colorful Mountain.

One of the old men has a fat body and a pleasant smile. He looks like a Maitreya Buddha with a bald head.

This fat old man is well-known in the third-order heaven realm. His name is Guquan, the famous master of Lingquan Valley.

Another old man with a tall and tall figure and eyes as bright as lightning was named Cang Wuhen.

This person is not well-known in the third-level heavenly domain, but he is famous in the homeland of China. He once fought with the headmaster of Kunlun for a day and a night, and it was difficult to decide the outcome.

The two seemed to have made an appointment to meet here. Master Guquan smiled and said: "Brother Wuhen, will you go up first or shall I go up first?"

Cang Wuhen said calmly: "It doesn't matter who comes first and who comes last. Let's go together."

As soon as the words fell, the two old men had a tacit understanding and rushed towards the steps of the Colorful Mountain at the same time.

A thousand steps ahead, the two of them were flying through the sky effortlessly.

After reaching the thousand steps, the two of them landed at the same time and took long strides to run up.

It can be seen that these two old men have climbed the Colorful Mountain more than once. Their movements are high-end and skillful, and they appear to be very experienced.

After passing three thousand steps, the two people running wildly slowed down.

After reaching the five thousandth level like this, the two of them turned into snails and climbed up step by step.

The so-called snail is not an exaggeration. From the five thousand steps to the seven thousand steps, which does not seem to be a far distance, it took the two three days and three nights.

In these three days, they seemed to have exhausted all their energy and strength.

"Well……"

With a muffled groan, Master Koizumi, who had climbed to the 7384th step, fell halfway down the mountain.

With a loud bang, the fat old man fell to the ground, his fat body rolling on the ground like a ball.

Not long after, another muffled groan came.

Cang Wuhen, who had climbed to level 7429, could no longer hold on and fell from the sky.

He lay motionless on the ground, dying.

At this time, Guquan Zhenren rolled to the side of Cang Wuhen, and then stopped moving.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The two old men struggled to look at each other, then lay on the ground laughing.

The laughter was extremely desolate and tragic.

Only those who have reached the end of their lives can understand the pain and helplessness contained in the laughter of the two old men.

If the Nine-Star Supreme One were here, it would not be difficult to see that these two old men were about to reach the end of their lifespan and had reached the point where their lamps and oil had run out.

Human beings are known as the spirits of all things, but they also have inherent shortcomings.

One of the most obvious flaws is Shouyuan.

As the saying goes, a thousand-year-old king is an 80,000-year-old turtle. Although the evolution process of the monster race is very difficult, this race has a long lifespan. Once it has successfully cultivated, it is not a problem to live for thousands of years. A few special monsters can live to 10,000 years. Humans are different. They are the race with the most short-lived ghosts.

You might as well calculate that in this era of universal evolution, the theoretical lifespan of a first-order top evolver is more than a hundred years. If the evolution fails in the middle, it will only last for a few years. At the top level of the second level, assuming no failures, the upper limit of lifespan can reach about three hundred years. In fact, the vast majority of second-order evolvers have experienced failure, even the first-generation king Zhao Ritian is no exception. There are not many in the world whose true life span exceeds two hundred years.

The above is the current status of mainstream human evolvers.

Let’s talk about some non-mainstream evolvers who have reached the third level.

Human third-level evolvers are divided into two major types, one is ants and the other is real people.

Let’s talk about the third-order ants first. The theoretical upper limit of life span is three hundred years. In fact, only a handful of them can survive to this stage.

After the ants break through to the realm of real people, their life span will be increased. The rate of increase is random and has been studied by many experts. It is roughly between 30 and 60 years. Every time you upgrade one star level, there will be such an improvement.

Theoretically speaking, after each breakthrough, a real person's lifespan increases by 16 years to the maximum upper limit. When reaching eight stars, it can increase by 640 years. Adding in the original basic lifespan of 300 years, his lifespan totals 940 years. This algorithm only exists in theory. In fact, the lifespan increased after each breakthrough is different. Even for an eight-star powerhouse, a lifespan of seven hundred years is not bad.

Only the legendary Nine-Star Supreme can achieve a thousand-year lifespan by breaking the seventh shackle in his body.

Even the supreme human being's lifespan is not infinite.

Why do big names like Li Chunfeng, Yuan Tiangang, and Wang Chongyang want to ascend? In fact, the reason is very simple. Their longevity has reached the end in the third-level heaven, and they have to fly to the fourth-level heaven to pursue a higher life span.

The master Guquan and Cang Wuhen in front of him are both eight-star peak experts, and they are also pitiful people who have reached the end of their lifespan.

Only by breaking through the bottleneck and being promoted to Nine-Star Supreme can their life expectancy be increased by hundreds of years.

It was obvious that neither of them could break through that level, so they settled for the next best thing - to climb to the top of the Colorful Mountain, return to their roots after fallen leaves, and die in their homeland of China.

However, climbing to the top of the Colorful Mountain is not that easy. Even the Supreme Zhang Sanfeng couldn't do it, and these two old people couldn't do it either.

"Hahahaha, God, I just want to return to my hometown and die in my hometown. Can't you fulfill even this wish?" Master Guquan was still laughing, with tears flowing from his eyes, and he cursed while laughing: " God, you are blind! The people who went to Shuiyue Cave back then were supposed to be me and Brother Wuhen, but because Kunlun was so powerful, Ziyang and Ziyue took two places! Hahahaha, Ziyang suddenly became a success Supreme, forcing me to survive in the cracks."

"That's all. The so-called Shuiyue Cave can only be entered by those who are destined to do so. It's more like that it can be entered by anyone with authority. Brother Guquan, ordinary people like you and I shouldn't go to that kind of place. It's only my fault that I'm not good at studying and can't We have crossed that hurdle." Cang Wuhen looked up to the sky and sighed, his words still somewhat unwilling. "I don't know how my descendants of the Cang family have lived these years. I just want to see them before I die, haha. It's a pity that I will never have the chance again. .”

"Brother Wuhen, do you really have no hatred in your heart?" Master Gu Quan suddenly asked.

"How can there be no hatred!" Cang Wuhen roared, full of anger gushing out: "Back then, I cherished that Qingxu Niubi and regarded me as a close friend. He used his dignity as a leader to find a blessed place for me to practice, which I admire endlessly. I didn’t expect that everything he did was just to speed up my third awakening, so that I had to break the void. One mistake would bring eternal hatred. If I had stayed in my hometown of China, I would have awakened four times and become the supreme master!"

"Brother Wuhen, if you achieve supreme status in the homeland of China, the title of No. 1 in Kunlun will change hands. The pair of brothers Qingxu and Taixu are good at calculating. They had known for a long time that the third-order heaven and earth spirits The Qi is thin, and you came to this world from the broken void. You will not be able to awaken four times in this life. The Kunlun of this world has Ziyang sitting there, and even if you are dissatisfied, it will not help." Koizumi revealed the truth in one word, and there was something indescribable in his words. regret.

Then there was a deathly silence, and the two old men lay motionless, as if waiting for death to come.

For them, it doesn't matter where they die if they can't return to their hometown.

At this moment, a colorful divine light suddenly flashed in the mist on the top of the mountain.

Such an eye-catching anomaly could not be hidden from the eyes of the two eight-star experts.

The two saw a colorful light ball with a diameter of two meters falling from the top of the mountain.

Gradually, a man in blue shirt with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes walked out of the ball of light.
