"The high elders, too, bear mortal frailties - "
"their heavy burdens becoming the shackles which bind them."
The first voice became more and more puzzled. "From your perspective, what does the permanence's revelation truly signify?"
After the words fell, the originally gentle and heavy music suddenly became intense seeming to hint at the permanence's true meaning.
------------------------
The video and the story-telling seemed to drag the audience into the story.
The Scions of Long are so prosperous and powerful, so what about the Aeon Long the Permanence themselves?
With such questions, everyone continued to watch.
But in the picture, there was no picture of the Progenitor of All Dragons,.
Instead, in the high-pitched music, a two legged dragon with huge wings on its back was perched on a red planet.
On its side, a row of characters introduced its identity.
High Elder of the Yaoqing, Successor of the Winged Dragon, Sovereign of Storms, Bound to Watch over the Lunar Embryo.
Title: CAELORUM VENTI
...
: Damn, High Elder of the Yaoqing?
: So Cool! This red moon, can it be the plaguemark of the abundance on the Xianzhou Yaoqing?
: What miracle? This is called the miracle of longevity!
: The dragon is really cool.
: Is the next, the performance of high elders from the other Xianzhou ships?
...
When the audience was excited.
The old man spoke again.
The amount of information in his words was also large.
"As the sun and moon rise and fall, the world undergoes continuous change."
"So, the concept of "stability" is meaningless."
"Only by comprehending and aligning with the way of the world..."
"can one's path lead to everlasting existence."
"Countless new creations emerge when one dragon meets its end among the morning stars."
"For the Vidyadhara, this is the true teaching of Permanence."
During the old man's narration, the lines full of hints made countless audiences start to think frantically.
Every though the voice did not talk about the whereabouts of the Aeon Long, but it seemed that every sentence was about it.
Unfortunately, the PV did not give the audience time to think at all.
Along with the old man's words, successive high elders appeared.
High Elder of the Zhuming, Successor of the Horned Dragon. Wielder of the Heavenly Flame. Bound to Watch over the Primordial Flame.
Title: ARDENS REGIA
With eyebrows made of thick flames, the claws of the Zhuming high elder held the seal of the Primordial Flame that looked like a cauldron.
Even the ink painting makes the audience feel the scorching heat.
...
: Ardens Regia, another awesome title!
: It turns out that the high elders of each Xianzhou ship will watch over one of the Plaguemarks.
...
The barrage of comments passed.
With the words of the old man, the screen showed a pure white dragon with the characters on the side showing.
High Elder of the Fanghu, Successor of the Scaled Dragon. Tamer of the Ebbing Frost. Bound to watch over the Miniature Myriads.
Title: GLACIATOR MARUM
...
: So beautiful! I'm going to Fanghu now!
: Forgive me for not knowing how to pronounce it and what to call it.
: Each one is more beautiful than the other! I am looking forward to the appearance of these high elders!
...
The scene changes again.
This time the audience can see a dragon with some blue color on its scales and entwined on a mountain, looking into the distance.
High Elder of the Yuque, Successor of the Terrestrial Dragon. Ponderer of the Congealed Silence. Bound to Watch over the Fallow Earth.
Title: MONS GRANDIS
So far, the Yaoqing High Elder, the Zhuming High Elder, the Fanghu High Elder, the Yuque High Elder, four high elders have appeared one by one.
Finally Dan Feng, who seemed to be tied up with chains and mediating under a peach blossom tree near a waterfall appeared.
The five high elders have all appeared.
...
: So handsome, ink style paintings are really cool.
: The transition is smooth, and the music is super nice.
: Okay, okay, a new episode is about to be released, and there are five new high elders released again, just drawing the pie, right?
: It's a pity that there should be high elders on the other Xianzhou Ships such as Cangcheng, I don't know if they are dead.
: Ahhhhhhhh, I can't wait to see the five high elders in the series.
: From this point of view, Xianzhou is really one of the major forces in the universe!
: However, similar to the Typhon there should be other Long's Scions scattered in the universe!
...
The excited audience discussed it.
But after carefully appreciating the appearance of the five High Elders.
They suddenly thought of a question.
Where did the Aeon of Permanence, the progenitor of all dragons, Long go.
Did he die? Or disappeared?
So, everyone began to replay and savor the old man's lines.
At the same time, they were also discussing it in the comments.
...
: The progenitor of dragons became the The Aeon of Permanence, and finally lost it's way. Is it truly dead? I saw the old man said at the end that one dragon fell, and all things came to life. Does this mean it died?
:Anyway we'll see what the director is cooking this time.
: The young man has been asking about the true meaning of the revelation of permanence, and the old man's words are the answer as was said in the vidoe.
: The continuation of bloodline, the great cause of protecting all life, these have all been denied. It seems that the truth is what the above said.
: Oh my, after seeing the comments of the big guys, I understood it all at once (did not understand a single word)
: So this is the true meaning of immortality! This PV is so well done!
: Long the Aeon of Permanence, this is awesome!
: The Scions of Long still have power showing that maybe Long is not truly dead?
: But there are more questions. What is the thing that Long is pursuing at the beginning? No matter what, after the it disappeared, the power of the permanence has indeed never been demonstrated.
: No, my head is going to be dizzy. The concepts and existence involved in this pv are too grand, and my little head is going to explode.
...
The audience was discussing it crazily on the official website.
Looking at these comments
Everyone in the theater frowned and thought deeply.
"Ahem, although not all of them were guessed correctly, the five high elders really appeared! I'm still very good!" Furina was completely relieved and felt proud.
Although she was very happy about the accident, as the assistant director, she was a little unsure about the other feeling she wanted to convey in the PV.
"On the surface, this PV is about an old man answering a young man about what immortality is, while introducing Long the Permanence and the five high elders."
"But the opening scene, combined with the image of the Aeon, always felt like the boss had something else in mind." Furina murmured.
"Ah, Furina, what did you say?" March 7th heard the whisper and poked Furina in confusion.
"Ah, I think this PV seems to touch upon the concept of Aeons."
"I wonder if this is another step by the boss to prepare for the next or another Aeon?" Furina touched her chin, looking thoughtful.
"Is that so?" March 7th scratched her head curiously. She subconsciously looked around, and it seemed that… everyone was really thinking hard.
"Oh, I'm going to fool around, I don't want to think more." March 7th lowered her head in embarrassment, and opened her phone guiltily, ready to look up some useful information from the omnipotent netizens and memorize it.
After flipping through it casually, she saw a post posted by a person named Ratio.
"The concept of Aeons and their Paths and Destinies. My complete review of the Myriad Celestia Trailer: Exodus of the Five Dragons."
'It looks so professional! I choose you!' March 7th immediately selected the post.
