It wasn't just because the ancestors of the Divination Sect were more accurate in their divinations.
There was another, critically important reason: the Divination Sect's cornerstone treasure, one of Sanqing's sect-defining cultivation techniques.
The Qing Emperor's Longevity Scripture!
This was a genuine, imperial-grade cultivation method. Its main focus was on prolonging life and purifying negative effects.
Cultivating this technique more than doubled one's lifespan compared to others at the same Cultivation Level. Furthermore, any lifespan consumed by using secret arts or forbidden curses could be completely replenished.
If one could cultivate it to grand completion, even employing a mutual-destruction technique that burned thousands of years of life wouldn't be a true end. As long as one's life force wasn't completely extinguished—even if only a single year remained—they could, given time, slowly regenerate all their lost longevity.
It was simply heaven-defying!
