The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 496

As for Astrid, the daughter of the Milky Way Empire that was once favored by many, she had given up her identity and was fully integrated into this small group. He never carried the 'attitude' of a princess.

"It's good that you're happy, but this is only a temporary place to stay. In three days, the sect would hold a ceremony to inaugurate this. At that time, Selena would be accepted as a private disciple by the head, and she would be separated from the disciples in name. You must be ready.”

"Huh? Celeste, do I have to separate from them and live alone? I don't want to part with them. Can you tell Master to let me stay with everyone?" Selena pleaded sadly.

"This is a sect rule. You have to live according to your status and identity. There are settings, and no one will rule them out. You can come to them if there is nothing to do, but you cannot stay with them. Although I am one of the elders of the Iridescent Sect, I cannot change the rules.”

"Alright, I understand" said Selena, feeling a little depressed.

He knows he can't change this. They have been living together for several years and are well-rounded. He would be sad to part with one of them. Even if Selena was asked to stay in a higher place, she would not.

“Celeste, will David leave the Iridescent Sect soon?” ask Mia.

"Yes! The Iridescent Sect only accepted female disciples. As a man, David was unable to join the sect. He could only stay here as a guest, and he could not walk as he pleased. He should leave after you all calm down." replied Celeste.

“Celeste, I don't want to stay here. Can I go with David? Lady Dream was unwilling to accept us anyway, so it doesn't matter if I leave, right?"

As soon as Mia's words came out of her mouth, it instantly caught the attention of another woman. Everyone wanted to know why he made such a choice.

“Oh? You don't want to stay in the Iridescent Sect? Can you tell me why?”

“I think David won't get used to the strange place Star Kingdom alone. He won't have anyone to talk to if he's apart from us, so I just want to help him a little bit. He is my benefactor. Back then, I swore in my heart that I would follow him in this life and repay his kindness."

"Do you know, how much effort have I put into making you a disciple of Lady Dream in name? Do you know, how many people in the Star Kingdom dream of becoming Lady Dream's disciple in name? Do you know how rare this opportunity is?"

"I know Celeste. I'm very grateful to you, but I don't want to leave David." whispered Mia.

"Do you know what you're missing? This is an opportunity. Opportunity to enter the Eternal Realm. Also, this opportunity is what many people want to have. David entrusted you to me because he wants you to enter the Eternal Realm in the future so that you have at least the lifespan of an epoch. Otherwise, over time, all of your organs will fail, and you will age slowly and eventually die. A short breakup today will guarantee you have a longer relationship in the future. Are you sure you want to do this?"

'Short separation now will guarantee you have a longer relationship in the future?’ Mia muttered these words in her heart.

He then seemed enlightened. He felt that what Celeste said made sense.

‘If I work hard to reach the Eternal Realm, I can spend more time with David.’

Not only him, but Celia and the others were also working hard because of this sentence. Did they just want to separate from David?

Of course not. This was so that they could be together for a longer time in the future, so that was why they had to part ways for a while. However, Celeste's words raised another question in everyone's mind.

‘Didn't they say we can live forever when we get to the Eternal Realm?

What does at least one age mean?

What does that mean?'

"But David is alone in Star Kingdom, and he's not used to the place. I'm afraid he won't get used to this."

"David is an Eternal. Although he was not very strong in Star Kingdom, he was not weak. He could ascend step by step in the Milky Way and eventually become the Ruler of the Milky Way, so he was very adaptable. You just have to do your own thing and not let him worry about you. Plus, even if you want to follow her, she won't agree.”

“I understand. Thank you, Celeste, I will definitely work hard and strive to reach the Eternal Realm so that I can continue to be by David's side."

Mia's idea was almost identical to Celia and the other women. All these women have no ambition, including Selena. The reason why they stayed here was also to become Eternals with an infinite lifespan so that they could always be by David's side.

“Celeste, won't we be immortal after reaching the Eternal Realm? What do you mean by at least one age?" Selena asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

This is also a question that everyone wants to ask.

“The long life of an Eternal is actually a fake. Although the body of an Immortal could continue to form vitality independently and they would not grow old or die, every Immortal would have to face calamity after a single epoch. This disaster was deadly and very few people managed to overcome it. Once they passed through it, they would have another age to waste. Otherwise, they would naturally become ashes under a calamity. Their bodies and souls will be destroyed." Celeste patiently explained.

The women look at each other. They did not know that there would be calamity for the Eternal. They had always thought as long as they reached the Eternal Realm, they could live forever. It seems that trying to be Immortal and staying by David's side forever sounds a little strange now.

“Celeste, how long is one epoch?”

“One time is 129600 years!”

"129600 years?”

Except for Celeste, everyone's eyes widened, and they froze in place.

‘A time actually 129600 years?

In other words, as long as we break through to the Eternal Realm, we can live at least 129600 years.'

This number was too large for Celia and the others born on Earth. Keep in mind that the lifespan of an ordinary human on Earth is just over a hundred years, and it is already a miracle that a human can live up to two or three hundred years.

Earth may still be a primitive ecology in the past!

Humans may not have even fully evolved back then.

“Why? Do you think it's been a while?” Celeste asked doubtfully as she looked at the expressions of Celia and the others.

"Yes, this is too long. So long that we can't even imagine it. Celeste, you know, it's a miracle that we humans on Earth could live two or three hundred years. Times are astronomical numbers for us." Celia explained.

“Oh? You people on Earth can only live two or three hundred years? I didn't realize it.”

Celeste had no idea that the inhabitants of the earth could only live up to two or three hundred years. Even though he stayed on Earth for half a month, he did not pay any attention to this matter at all. Earth was merely a sesame seed-sized planet, so it did not arouse the interest of a Sovereign Ranker like him.

If David does not penetrate the Eternal Realm, Celeste will pass through the galaxy where the Milky Way Galaxy is located. He would never come to a planet as small as Earth.

"Not everyone can live two hundred to three hundred years. Most people can only live to more than seventy years.”

“I understand.” Celeste stunned.

For a group of people who are used to living only two or three hundred years, 129600 years from an epoch is indeed a huge astronomical number. Therefore, it was understandable for them to have such a reaction.

However, ever since they came to Star Kingdom, Celia and the women would gradually adapt to the rhythm of life here. When they all became Eternals, they would understand that one epoch was too short.

Once an Immortal lived to a hundred thousand years, they were no longer obsessed with breaking through. Instead, they would do all they could to survive the Eternal Calamity. Even so, there are still very few successful people.

One epoch is the end of ninety-nine percent of Eternals' lives. As long as they reached the Eternal Realm, almost everyone would feel that the epoch was too short. This is because no one wants a shorter life, and everyone wants to live longer.

At this moment, Celeste suddenly thought of a question. ‘Isn't David also from Earth? So how old is he now?’

Then, Celeste asked casually, “Who among you has known David the longest? How old is he now?”

Ava wants to say that she and David are classmates at university and they have known each other since their first year, which is relatively early. Amelia knew him a while later. Back then, she was one of the Three Goddesses of the SRU Campus, but she did not know David, who worked part-time delivering food.

He didn't know David until David and Sarah broke up and he was so angry at Leo that he vomited blood, which then made him famous throughout the campus.

But before Ava could say anything, Celia replied first, “Celeste, David and I are high school classmates. We've known each other since we were seventeen. If I remember correctly, this year is the twelfth year we know each other. So, David should be twenty-nine years old and soon be thirty.”

Celeste was stunned when she heard that. He asked in a trembling voice, “B-B-B-How old is D-David?”

"Twenty-nine, almost thirty!” Celia repeated.

Celeste dumbfounded.

‘David is only thirty years old?

Eternal is thirty years old?

The power of his mind was also extraordinarily powerful. Is this possible?'

Celeste had lived for nearly two thousand years, and she had never heard of it, let alone met someone like that. He could guarantee that throughout the history of Star Kingdom, there had never been such a person. He could no longer be described as a genius or a madman.

If David really was only thirty years old, he would be the greatest miracle and abnormality in the universe. This is completely unprecedented. Furthermore, David came from a very small planet like Earth. How could he obtain his current achievements in such a short amount of time?

Celeste feels that David must have been blessed by heaven and experienced a surprising adventure, and that is why he was able to reach all at the age of thirty. Otherwise, he could not find an explanation for this at all.

If he told anyone about the thirty-year-old Eternal, they would laugh in front of his face. No one's gonna believe him. This would confuse all life in Star Kingdom.

“Are you sure David is only thirty years old? Could it be that he has lived a long time and you don't know?” Celeste asked again.

“Celeste, I believe David is only thirty years old. I have learned about the situation in her family, and her relatives and friends watched her grow up" Celia replied.

After getting a firm answer from Celia, Celeste was shocked, but also very excited.

‘So it's true, it's real!

David was truly only thirty years old. Based on what he had achieved at the age of thirty, he would have a promising future. Will Saint Realm be his finish line?

Could it be that he would advance further?

Master Saint was already an important person at the top of the pyramid in the Star Kingdom. If David could surpass the Saint Realm, he would become the sole ruler of the Star Kingdom.

Celeste felt excited just by thinking about it.
