Not everyone was like Yang Chan, blessed with a cheat and an incredibly long lifespan.
Ordinary people had limited lifespans, so their only choice was to rapidly increase their cultivation within those finite years. As they grew stronger, they constantly tried to extend their lives.
For instance, Yang Chan's current lifespan of over three hundred years was something no ordinary person could match. Even a Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster couldn't come close to his lifespan.
If the Old Emperor of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty had a lifespan as long as Yang Chan's, he naturally wouldn't be in such a hurry.
When Martial Arts Cultivators neared the end of their lifespan, they faced the predicament of their Qi and Blood and Essence Qi draining away. Under such conditions, breaking through to the National Guardian Martial Saint Realm became even more difficult.
