"No, don’t worry. Nothing happened to the little champion." Chu Miao smiled when he thought of that child.

Zhao Ji had performed so well during this battle that even Chu Miao was proud.

He had done even better than some of the adults.

"Then...." Lin Wan wondered what had happened to make the young girl so happy.

"Well, I guess you must have heard of Zhao Ji’s strength form those who participated in the previous battle. Uncle Lu must know this since he was there." Chu Miao started and looked towards Zhao Lu.

"Indeed, he broke through during the battle and now is the youngest foundation establishment cultivator in the sect." Zhao Lu said proudly.

Even though he had been worried, he hadn’t expected his son to do so well at such a young age.

However, his heart ached as well. The child was still so small. If this was before the apocalypse, Zhao Ji would just be starting kindergarten.

Yet, now he has already learned how to kill. Even though they were killing zombies, it was still spilling blood.

He sighed audibly at this thought.

"Since you witnessed his performance, I won’t say too much. When it comes to cultivation, there is basically no end. It’s just that at some point, advancing becomes more difficult if certain conditions are not met. However, with the right resources, one can go far." Even though Chu Miao wanted to be straightforward, she still wanted the two to understand the process of cultivation.

Lin Wan and Zhao Lu wondered why this girl who usually doesn’t speak much was getting at, but they stayed quiet and listened.

"The world we are in, earth, is considered a lower Realm. There are thousands of such realms in the universe but due to the barrier separating it from the upper realm, there is no spiritual energy. In fact, spiritual energy only started re-emerging after the first fog of the apocalypse. Before that, spiritual energy was completely non-existent. However, because of the natural laws governing the lower realm, it would not permit anyone who breaks through the tribulation transcendent stage to remain here. They would have to ascend. Nevertheless, with the level of spiritual energy here, even though it is still recovering, it will still take thousands of years for someone to reach that stage without external assistance. Thus, the highest cultivation level anyone can ever reach here is divine transformation, which won’t be easy either." Chu Miao stopped talking for a couple of minutes to wait for the two to absorb this information when she saw them looking thoughtful.

Once they looked back at her, she continued.

"Cultivators have a long lifespan compared to ordinary people. Like Little Ji. If nothing unexpected happens, with his current strength of foundation establishment, he can live up to two hundred years. If he breaks through to th nascent soul, his lifespan will extend to five hundred years. Once he breaks through to the divine transformation, it will become one thousand years. After breaking through to tribulation transcendent, his lifespan will extend to three thousand years. If given the opportunity to breakthrough to True Immortal, his lifespan will extend to five thousand years. Every breakthrough after that extends his lifespan by a few thousand years. With his talent, he might even break through to Immortal Venerable or Immortal Emperor where his lifespan will reach over fifty thousand years or more depending on his strength." At this point, both Lin Wan and Zhao Lu were dumbfounded.

They hadn’t expected humans to possess such a long lifespan. They were used to the normal lifespan of humans being eighty years or less.

But now, listening to Chu Miao talk about living for tens of thousands of years, it felt like a dream.

"How can someone live so long?" Lin Wan asked in disbelief.

"It sounds unbelievable, right? But that is the truth. People can live even longer. In th beginning, before the power of faith became scarce, people could ascend to godhood if they cultivated diligently. Once they did, they could live forever. However, due to some conflicts, huge battles occured that separated the universe into different realms with each realm governed by its own heavenly dao. Strength was also capped at a certain point to avoid the destruction of the world again. At th same time, the power of faith diminished causing it to become nearly impossible for cultivators to ascend to godhood no matter how hard they cultivate. Thus, those who want to live longer can only keep cultivating to increase their lifespan, but it would eventually come to an opportunity end. Even so, such powerhouses have lived for tens of thousands of years or even hundred of thousands of years and have ways to preserve silver of their consciousness or a small part of their soul waiting for an opportunity for rebirth." Chu Miao suddenly stopped talking, realizing she had veered off course.

"What I want to talk to you about is about Little Ji’s future. Do you want him to keep getting stronger or do you want him to reach his limit at divine transformation?" She asked, looking straight at the two.

"As parents, of course we want him to go as far in his cultivation as possible. If by becoming stronger, he can live longer and live a better life, which parent wouldn’t want that for their child? But you already said that he can’t advance past divine transformation in this world, so, what can we do?" Lin Wan was the first to speak and her husband just nodded.

"That’s why I told you about the circumstances in different places. On earth, he can only reach divine transformation, but what if he ascends to a higher realm?" Chu Miao asked them.

"What...what do you mean?" Zhao Lu asked in alarm.

"To tell you the truth, I am not from this world. I am here for a life tribulation and once it ends, I will go back to my home. I wanted to bring Little Zhao with me. I can help him become stronger. I didn’t want such talent to be extinguished here."
