"The Dao injury left by the Celestial Tribulation causes my state to constantly deteriorate. If I remain inactive, I can endure for over a thousand years; but if I engage in low-intensity battles or fight a Harmonization Cultivator, I can only last for ten years; should I battle Tribulation Crossing Cultivators, I might immediately sit in meditation upon the battle's conclusion! Ahem... saying this, he coughed again."
In that battle, all the elites of the Infinite Sword Sect were completely annihilated, leaving only him, the patient, alive as the surviving ancestor.
The Young Master said, "Ancestor, what do you think of Lu Xuanji? Perhaps the ancestor can possess him and live another life!"
"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"
The ancestor coughed and said, "Inappropriate. My fundamental injury is severe; I can't possess anyone. After possession, the injury won't improve but will instead worsen! Possession is useless to me."
The Young Master remained silent, unsure what to say.
