Wolfe's cells began to remake themselves, each with a dense, but flexible, mana barrier as the cell wall, stopping the biological decay of his body and stabilizing his appearance in the state he was the moment that he advanced.
From that moment on, every change in his body would be of his own will, the state of every cell was recorded, and both the number and condition could be replicated with pure mana.
That was the advantage of the Saints among the Magi. Complete Elemental Control over their bodies would allow them to appear any way that they liked with just a thought, and while they might not be immune to the ravages of time, they would be very close to it. Like a statue or a cypress tree, it would be better to measure his longevity in centuries than decades, as unless an external factor like disease or violence did him in, he would likely live a thousand years or more.
