Asura Mad Emperor-Chapter 553 -
"How is that possible? Under the Heavenly Dao, within the cycle of reincarnation, the limit of life is only a million years. Even if you truly lived for a million years, by this time, you would have already aged drastically, one foot stepping into the tomb. How could you possibly look like this?"
The man in the black robe snorted coldly, clearly thinking that Qinchuan was boasting.
In this world, the lifespan of cultivators is not limitless.
Above the Divine Realm, even if one cultivates to the Realm of the Divine Emperor, the lifespan limit is only a million years. Of course, ordinary cultivators cannot live that long.
In the Divine Wilderness Continent, reaching the Holy's Realm, one could live for about a hundred thousand to a hundred and fifty thousand years. Breaking through to the Emperor Realm, one would have at least two hundred thousand years of lifespan, with the maximum being three hundred thousand years.
Above the Divine Realm, the lifespans of most cultivators range from four hundred thousand to eight hundred thousand years. Only the exalted Divine Emperors and Heavenly Emperors can possess a lifespan of a million years.
Of course, there are also an extremely small number of supreme powerhouses who, through hibernation and the life extension granted by supreme Life Spirit Treasures, are able to live for around one million one hundred thousand years.
Therefore, Qinchuan claiming he has lived for a million years is naturally unbelievable to him.
"Belief or disbelief is up to you,"
Qinchuan said indifferently.
"If you wish to come to terms with this young master, it's very simple. Hand over your Storage Space along with all the treasures inside to this young master, and I will withdraw the Great Formation and no longer pursue you,"
Qinchuan knew that the master behind the man in the black robe was certainly no simple character. Even if he captured him and used the Soul-Searching Technique, he most likely wouldn't find any useful information. There was a high possibility that the man's soul had been bound with Prohibitions, and forcibly conducting a Soul Search would lead the mysterious man to self-destruct.
Therefore, he never had any hope that the man in the black robe would reveal information about his master.
"You..."
Under the chaotic mask, the man in the black robe's face turned very ugly.
"Do not push me too far. I can hand over one-third of the Heavenly Treasures Materials in my Storage Space to you,"
The man in the black robe said through gritted teeth.
"Since that's the case, then this young master will have to help himself. No matter how big your Storage Space is, there will come a day when this young master empties it out,"
Qinchuan shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, "After all, I have plenty of time to slowly wear you down."
"But think carefully, if this young master personally comes to take them, there's no telling if I might just steal your Spiritual Robe as well."
Although this divine skill could steal the treasures within the other party's Storage Space, the failure rate was extremely high. Moreover, since the black-robed man's Spiritual Robe was worn on his body, Qinchuan's divine skill would under no circumstances be able to steal it. He said this to scare the other party.
As he spoke, Qinchuan transformed into a Great Roc, pressing towards the man in the black robe once more.
Sure enough, hearing what Qinchuan had said, the man in the black robe cursed under his breath. "Dammit! You're truly a scoundrel!"
He had only heard occasionally from his master that there was a powerful Divine Skill in this world that could steal the treasures of others, but he did not understand the divine skill of theft at all, believing what Qinchuan had said to be the truth.
He unfurled his Spiritual Robe, his wings quivering once more as he flew quickly straight ahead.
The Speed of the Spiritual Robe was extremely fast, especially in a straight line, far surpassing Qinchuan, but because he was only relying on a magic artifact, his turning speed was far inferior to Qinchuan's.
If it were the outside world, the man in the black robe could simply fly straight ahead to escape, and Qinchuan might genuinely have no way to catch up. However, this world had boundaries, and it didn't take long for the man in the black robe to reach the boundary of the Great Formation.
At that moment, Qinchuan instantly closed in, nearly reaching him.
"Bang, bang, bang"

After a brief skirmish, the man in the black robe adjusted his direction and took off into the distance once more.
"Oh? It's actually a strand of Nether Grass! Not bad, not bad. This young master has been searching for this Nether Grass for a long time; I didn't expect to obtain it from you.
Truly, after searching everywhere with no success, it comes without any effort,"
Qinchuan said leisurely as he pursued, with a strand of blue Spirit Grass appearing in his hand.
The man in the black robe, while propelling his movement technique, sent his Divine Sense into his Storage Space and discovered that many of the Heavenly Treasures Materials therein had disappeared without a trace, including that strand of Nether Grass he had finally found after enduring countless hardships.
"Puh——"
The man in the black robe spat blood in anger.
What was all this about?
He had come to this place full of confidence, seeking the Spiritual Pearl, and when he saw Qinchuan using the Qi Sha Qiankun Art to kill hundreds of Divine Envoys, he too was somewhat shocked.
But relying on the Divine Soul Spiritual Weapon bestowed by his master, he materialized out of the void.
He originally thought that Qinchuan's most powerful strikes were already ineffective against him, that he had secured victory, and the two Spiritual Pearls on Qinchuan's body would fall into his hands.
He even fantasized about the moment he would present the two Spiritual Pearls to his master, and the grand reward he would receive.
But he never expected that Qinchuan's Divine Power would also be so strong, completely overpowering him.
The man in the black robe had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, and this was the first time he felt so suffocated.
The two had no idea how many days they had been chasing each other around the Great Formation.
The man in the black robe saw the Heavenly Treasures and Materials in his Storage Space dwindling at a visible rate.
Although it didn't seem much at the moment, perhaps only one ten-thousandth, but under Qinchuan's relentless pursuit, the day would come when his Storage Space was completely emptied.
Having his Storage Space stolen bare was one thing, but what made him even more desperate was that he had to withstand the other party's attacks and suffer a vicious beating, even knowing that the thief was right before him.
This was outright, brazen robbery.
He wanted to resist but was powerless to do so.
Along the way, he had also tried to fight Qinchuan to the death again, but the fellow would just use the Jade Void Sacred Palm, and with one palm, he would be injured again. The main function of the Spirit Robe was defense against soul attacks; it couldn't fully guard against physical Divine Power attacks.
He felt that every minute and every second was torture.
And yet, he was the one who had willingly jumped into this pit of fire.
One day, he finally couldn't bear this inhuman torture any longer.
"Stop! Stop! Stop fighting!"
"Don't chase anymore!"
In quite a disheveled state, the man in the black robe yelled loudly.
"Hmph, had a change of heart, have you?" Qinchuan stopped his pursuit and stood at a distance, looking down at him with a sidelong glance, "Hand over your Storage Treasure, and this young master will let you go immediately."
"You must swear that after I hand over all the treasures in my Storage Space to you, you will withdraw the Great Formation and let me leave without pursuing me further," the man in the black robe said in a rolling voice.
"Hmph, once this young master speaks, he does not go back on his word. You are not worth my breach of promise," Qinchuan replied indifferently.
The man in the black robe hesitated.
Qinchuan continued casually, "You only have ten breaths to consider. Once this time passes, what this young master wants will be more than just your Storage Space."
"You... you're too bullying. Do you believe that I will die together with you!"
"Die together? Just with you?" Qinchuan looked at the man in the black robe with a mocking glance, "Five breaths have passed!"
"Five... Four... Three... Two..."
Qinchuan's voice was indifferent, but it had an irresistible domineering tone. Each countdown felt like a Life-Seizing Talisman.
The man in the black robe was filled with frustration, a hint of hesitation flickering in his eyes. Seeing Qinchuan counting down to the last breath, he finally made up his mind and said through gritted teeth.
"Fine, I will trust you this once!"
