In order to continue reading Han Zexian’s diary, Tian Yang had to constantly replenish his diminishing longevity with longevity pills.
Each of the longevity pills granted Tian Yang a hundred years of life. Although this may not seem like much at a glance, these pills were unique in the sense that they could be consumed endlessly.
While most longevity pills could only be consumed once in a lifetime before their effects ceased, Han Zexian’s longevity pills were an exception—they had no limit. As long as one had an endless supply, they could achieve eternal life.
However, such pills were exceedingly rare and unimaginably valuable. Their creation required specific herbs, ones that were nearly impossible to find. These herbs could only thrive in the most harsh and unforgiving environments, where even the strongest cultivators would struggle to survive.
Yet, the very same herbs, ones thought to exist only in the most extreme landscapes, were right here in the cavern, growing beneath the waterfall.
It was clear that Han Zexian had concocted the longevity pills by himself using the herbs he’d grown. However, Tian Yang was not an alchemist, so there was no way for him to utilize the herbs before him.
This meant that once the supply of longevity pills ran out, Tian Yang would not be able to acquire more. Fortunately for him, Han Zexian had left behind an immense supply of longevity pills—enough to increase his longevity by tens of millions of years. Enjoy new adventures from freewebnovel
Yet, at the rate his longevity was being depleted, Tian Yang wasn’t sure the supply would last him until he could learn the secrets of the cavern.
However, Tian Yang didn’t care and continued.
Time slipped away like grains of sand through Tian Yang’s fingers.
With his mind wholly immersed in Han Zexian’s diary, he lost all sense of the outside world.
One year… ten years… twenty years…
In what felt like an instant, twenty-five years had passed since Tian Yang first set foot inside Han Zexian’s cavern.
During this time, Tian Yang had managed to improve his cultivation to the peak of Immortal Ascension, and he’d also long finished Han Zexian’s diary and was now studying the engravings on the walls.
Just finishing Han Zexian’s diary had cost Tian Yang over a million years of his lifespan. Yet, he felt no regret.
The knowledge he had gained was beyond anything he had ever imagined.
Through the diary, he had not only unraveled the mystery of Han Zexian’s existence but also uncovered his purpose in the cavern.
According to Han Zexian, he had somehow stumbled upon forbidden knowledge—information about entities so powerful they surpassed all mortal and even Immortal comprehension. These entities not only controlled the Divine Heavens, but they could even be dictators of their universe.
Han Zexian referred to these unfathomable beings as Outer Gods—entities beyond the reach of mortals, immortals, and even divine beings. Their very existence defied logic, and their power was so absolute that even the highest realms of cultivation could not comprehend them.
Han Zexian became obsessed with these beings, dedicating the rest of his life to studying them. His desire to learn more eventually evolved into something far more dangerous—he sought to contact them.
