Maria’s words stirred Rebbeca’s spirits, and he quickly asked, “Can the Divine Dragon truly defy the heavens and soar as the cultivators claim?”

With a laugh, Maria replied, “My Lord, perhaps I was overthinking it. Divine Ascension is merely a conjecture derived from people’s understanding of the Book of Changes. They believe that by reaching a certain level of cultivation, they can ascend to another world like the fairyland in the East or the divine realm in the West. However, based on my family’s comprehension of the Book of Changes, the essence of cultivation lies in the continuous extension of lifespan and strength.”

Rebbeca humbly inquired, “Miss Clark, could you elaborate further?”

Maria nodded slightly and spoke earnestly, “Young Master, the extension of lifespan and strength means that the nature of beings remains unchanged. It’s like a tree, no matter how tall or old it grows, it remains a tree and won’t become a so-called tree demon, tree spirit, or tree god.”

“Perhaps with improved cultivation, the flowers and fruits it bears might have extraordinary effects, but fundamentally, it’s still just a tree,” she continued.

Rebbeca nodded in understanding, “So, even if a person surpasses the limits imposed by the heavens, they’re still human, albeit with a longer and stronger life?”

“Exactly,” Maria replied with a smile. “This is the true essence of Zhouyi. A person’s strength can surpass the limitations of fate, but even after doing so, they remain human, not gods.”

“If the Mother of Pu’er lives for 10,000 years, it will inevitably face a catastrophe,” she explained. “If it survives, it will still be the Mother of Pu’er tree, standing by Heaven Lake as the same tree it always was.”

Then she added, “As for the Heavenly Cultivation, its height far exceeds the comprehension of ordinary beings. To put it provocatively, it’s like the Master’s strength dooming him to only live for a thousand years. If he breaks through that limitation, he may live for two thousand years. But to live until the day when the Cultivation of Heaven descends might take five thousand years, or even ten thousand.”

Curious, Rebbeca asked, “Miss Clark, do you know how high the Cultivation of Heaven is?”
