300 Divine Dharma (1/2)
The name ”Liu Pingsheng” signified ”transcendental” in the Hengliu galaxy.
Even more transcendental than the two Transcendental Forces.
In the Hengliu galaxy, this name was not only a synonym for the word ”transcendental,” but it was also a synonym for ”unparalleled.”
However, this person spent most of his days hidden within the Guangling Academy and hardly stepped outside. In the last few centuries, he had not been known to step out of the Guangling Academy at all... and when he had appeared in the Hengliu galaxy a thousand years ago, he had already been a late Divine Transformation adept.
Now, nobody but him and God knew how powerful he really was.
Of course, Zhou Donghuang knew nothing about this.
Otherwise, he would definitely have thought that he had made a judgment error. When he had tried to sense Liu Pingsheng's inner Yuan earlier, based on his experience from his previous life, he had guessed that Liu Pingsheng was at the late Divine Transformation stage.
A late Divine Transformation adept a thousand years ago, and still a late Divine Transformation adept a thousand years later?
Unless there was some special reason behind this, it could not be possible!
Dharma adepts had a lifespan of six hundred years, and when they reached the Primordial Soul stage, their lives would be extended by another four hundred years. This was why Primordial Soul adepts were also known as ”millennium adepts.”
When Primordial Soul adepts reached the Divine Transformation stage, their lives would be extended by another five hundred years. Divine Transformation adepts had a maximum lifespan of a thousand five hundred years.
As for the Separating Divinity stage above the Divine Transformation stage, the lifespan could be extended by another five hundred years to a total of two thousand years.
Once the person reached the Immortal stage, the lifespan would be extended by another thousand years to a total of three thousand years!
As for the Deity stage, those who reached this stage would either die or overcome it to reach the spirit world and become a God.
For a Divine Transformation adept, to still be alive when he was a late Divine Transformation adept a thousand years ago, this meant that he had reached the late Divine Transformation stage before the age of five hundred years.
Such a person was still a late Divine Transformation adept a thousand years later?
Even in the Hengliu galaxy, this possibility was minute.
”Senior, may I ask... why have you come to our Lightning Sword Sect?”
Lan Gui, the most senior person in the Lightning Sword Sect and the most powerful man in the sect currently, looked at Liu Pingsheng fearfully as he asked in a respectful tone.
At that point, both Yu Yucheng and He Jin were looking at Liu Pingsheng uneasily.
They felt as if they could not breathe properly.
”No need to be anxious,” Liu Pingsheng glanced at Lan Gui and replied slowly.
”I am here today to look for Zhou Donghuang for something, nothing to do with your Lightning Sword Sect.
”Now, I have something to speak to Zhou Donghuang about, please give us some time.”
Once Liu Pingsheng had spoken, Lan Gui hastily agreed and left quickly. He looked knowingly at Yu Yucheng and He Jin, his gaze filled with caution.
”Yes, Senior.” Yu Yucheng also left.
”Donghuang.”
As He Jin was leaving left, he turned to look at Zhou Donghuang and said, ”This Senior Liu Pingsheng is the current leader of the Guangling Academy and a senior even to the current Emperor Qi of the Qi Dynasty. You must not treat him with disrespect.”
He Jin's words not only reinforced the position of Liu Pingsheng in the Guangling Academy, but they even reminded Zhou Donghuang of his position in relation to Emperor Qi, the most powerful man of the Qi Dynasty.
He had reminded Zhou Donghuang about this because he knew that Zhou Donghuang was always relaxed and loose with his manners, and he was afraid that Zhou Donghuang would anger the man.
Zhou Donghuang only nodded slightly at He Jin's reminder. Still, he was quietly surprised... this white-haired young man in front of him was not only powerful in the Guangling Academy, but also influential in the Qi Dynasty as well?
In that case, wouldn't this man be able to do anything he wished in the Hengliu galaxy?
”You have something to tell me?”
If He Jin found out that after he, Yu Yucheng and Lan Gui left, Zhou Donghuang would speak first and question Liu Pingsheng in such a tone, he would have been scared witless.
Even when his senior mentor was around, He Jin would have to greet Liu Pingsheng as ”Senior.”
However, faced with the disrespect of Zhou Donghuang, Liu Pingsheng didn't appear unhappy at all. Instead, he smiled at Zhou Donghuang and asked directly, ”Do you believe that for Dharma adepts... Dharma Power Control may not be the final frontier of perfecting Dharma Power?”
Zhou Donghuang was taken aback, as he had never thought that Liu Pingsheng would say something like that.
As far as he knew, in the history of the Hengliu galaxy, there had never been a Dharma adept who had perfected their Dharma Power to the extent of Dharma Power Control, and he was the first and only person who had done so.
