Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

Outer gate square.

The atmosphere was extremely tense.

All eyes of the dozen or so inner sect elders, including the second elder, were focused on Su Yu.

look forward to.

An unprecedented, even slightly tense, anticipation spread in the eyes of these ancient monsters who had lived for countless years.

"Cloud Crane!"

The Second Elder took a deep breath and gave the order in a deep voice.

"The Monument to the Beginning of Enlightenment!"

Deacon Yunhe dared not be negligent and quickly formed a complex hand seal with both hands.

Rumble!

The white jade floor tiles in the center of the square suddenly cracked open to both sides.

A towering ancient stone tablet, hundreds of feet tall and pitch black, slowly rose from the ground.

The surface of the stone tablet had no patterns or luster.

It's just like a very ordinary black rock.

But the profound and mysterious aura it exuded, which seemed capable of devouring all thoughts, made everyone present feel a chill.

"Su Yu".

The Second Elder stepped forward, his tone unusually solemn.

"This third test assesses your affinity for the higher-dimensional laws of the universe, that is, your comprehension!"

"Do you know what this comprehension means for the condensation of the Primordial Origin Cave?"

Su Yu remained calm and shook his head slightly.

The Second Elder pointed to the black stone tablet, his voice echoing through the sea of ​​clouds.

"That means time!"

"It means whether you can break free from the shackles of life and death before your lifespan ends!"

The Second Elder's expression turned unusually serious.

"The Primordial Origin Cave is an unparalleled inheritance that points directly to the Great Dao of the Domain Lord level."

"The obscurity and profundity of its core principles far exceed the imagination of ordinary people!"

Even with the aid of the primordial source, it would still take an extremely long time to fully comprehend and solidify it!

The Second Elder held up one finger.

"If your comprehension is at level A."

"Then you'll only need tens of thousands of years to fully comprehend it!"

"If your comprehension is at level B."

"This timeframe could be stretched to hundreds of thousands of years!"

"If it's C, then..."

"That would take millions of years!"

"If it's Ding Shang."

"That would take tens of millions of years!"

At this point, the Second Elder paused, his gaze fixed intently on Su Yu.

"As long as your comprehension reaches level C or above!"

Even if your aptitude is utterly inferior!

"I dare to speak to the sect leader, offering the entire sect's resources to ensure your lifelong prosperity and help you achieve the Great Dao!"

The Second Elder's words were resounding and powerful.

The dozen or so inner sect elders around him nodded in agreement.

A perfect body possessing five million flawless source blood.

As long as one's comprehension isn't too bad.

If one can comprehend the Primordial Origin Cave within millions of years, the sect can gain a Domain Lord-level combatant.

"Go."

The Second Elder's eyes burned with fervor as he pointed at the Primordial Enlightenment Stele.

"Let me see just how much of a surprise your extraordinary destiny, which carries the promise of immortality, can bring me!"

Under the spotlight.

Su Yu took a step and walked to the Primordial Enlightenment Stele.

He looked at the pitch-black stone tablet.

Raise your right hand.

I pressed it on gently.

hum-

A wisp of spiritual energy flowed from his palm into the stone tablet.

The entire room fell silent.

All the elders held their breath, their eyes wide open, afraid of missing even the slightest change.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

A hazy, gray light slowly illuminated the interior of the pitch-black stone tablet.

The halo was extremely faint.

Like a flickering candle in the wind, it sways precariously, as if it might be extinguished at any moment.

There was no pillar of light shooting into the sky.

There was no dazzling spectacle illuminating the square.

The hazy, gray halo struggled to climb a short distance upwards from the base of the stone tablet.

then.

It has come to a complete stop.

The halo condensed and finally revealed two dim and dull characters on the surface of the stone tablet.

Dingzhong! ! !

Quiet.

A deathly silence.

The entire outer plaza was silent, even the wind seemed to have stopped.

A dozen or so inner sect elders stared blankly at the two characters on the stone tablet.

His face was filled with anticipation, fervor, and excitement.

At this moment, everything froze and solidified, ultimately transforming into an undisguised astonishment and blankness.

"Ding...Dingzhong?"

Elder Lei Huofeng rubbed his eyes, his voice dry as if he were chewing sand.

"This is fucking..."

"This has to be a joke!"

The Second Elder's usually placid face twitched suddenly.

The burning passion in his eyes was extinguished instantly, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head, leaving not a single spark.

"Ding Zhong..."

The Second Elder muttered to himself, his feet involuntarily taking a half-step back.

An unprecedented sense of despair and heartache overwhelmed him like a tidal wave.

"It's over."

"It's all over."

The direct descendant of the Grand Elder sighed deeply, his face filled with heartache and indignation.

"Five million flawless source blood!"

"Perfect purity, 100%!"

"They actually paired her with someone with Ding Zhong's comprehension?!"

"This is an absolute waste! It's a terrible joke played on the very laws of the universe!"

The surrounding elders shook their heads, sighed, and beat their chests in frustration.

The more hopeful I was before, the more desperate I am now.

Chu Wudao stood aside, watching the elders' grief-stricken expressions, and couldn't help but swallow hard.

He looked cautiously at the Second Elder.

"senior……"

"Is Ding Zhong's comprehension really that bad?"

"Can't we just let time slowly grind it down and forcefully comprehend the Primordial Origin Cave?"

Hearing Chu Wudao's question.

The second elder turned his head, looked at him, and gave a bitter laugh.

"Will we just let time wear us down?"

"Do you know how long it would take for a martial artist with only a moderate level of comprehension to comprehend the Primordial Origin Cave?"

The Second Elder held up five fingers, his voice filled with a deep sense of powerlessness.

"Fifty million years!"

"Even 60 million years!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Wudao was visibly shaken.

Fifty or sixty million years?!

The Second Elder took a deep breath, pointed at Su Yu, and said with regret in his voice.

"Even if we are the Starry Sky Humans, no matter how strong our physique is."

"As long as a black hole hasn't formed yet, and the constraints of higher-dimensional life haven't been broken."

"The lifespan limit for a star-level being is six to seven million years!"

"At most ten million years!"

The Second Elder's voice echoed across the square, each word piercing to the heart.

"He only has a lifespan of less than ten million years."

"However, it would take fifty to sixty million years to comprehend the technique!"

"There's a tenfold time gap between them!"

"Even if he doesn't eat or drink, and begins his life-long seclusion now, he won't even be able to touch the threshold of the Primordial Origin Cave when his lifespan ends!"

Infinite loop!

This is an inescapable vicious cycle!

Elder Lei Huofeng chimed in from the side, his tone unusually heavy.

"unless……"

"He gave up comprehending the Primordial Origin Cave."

"I will condense my energy in any ordinary singularity black hole, thereby breaking through my cultivation level and forcibly extending my lifespan to 60 to 70 million years."

"but!"

Elder Lei Huofeng slapped his thigh suddenly.

"Once he condenses into an ordinary black hole, his power level will be completely fixed!"

"In this lifetime, I will never be able to transfer my cultivation to the Primordial Origin Cave again!"

"His perfect body, built upon five million flawless sources of blood, is now utterly ruined!"

"From now on, they will only be top-tier black hole-level combat power!"

The elders nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with regret.
