How long does a mythological Dala live

In conjunction with the Journey to the West, the Enchantment of the Gods, and many Taoist texts, the lifespan of a deity is mainly related to the realm of cultivation, the so-called realm being the realization of the Tao.

Depending on the degree of enlightenment, the lifespan of immortals can be roughly divided into three levels.

The third class, can live for 129,600 years. According to the traditional Chinese algorithm of heavenly stems and earthly branches, 129,600 years is one yuan, and the world will be refreshed every time a yuan passes.

This is the so-called "one yuan, ten thousand elephants renewed", meaning that the natural world of one yuan for a cycle, as long as the level of life has not reached the "out of the three realms, not in the five elements" realm, will be refreshed.

The so-called "out of the three realms, not in the five elements" is the core technology of longevity mentioned earlier, so the immortals who have not reached this realm will not live up to one yuan, and those who are less fortunate may be "refreshed" just as they become immortal.

The second class can live 6,480 million years, this algorithm is how to come? Speaking of jumping out of the three worlds outside of the five elements in the immortal, theoretically unlimited life, folk called it "Dala immortal", Taoism called "on the immortal".

But unlimited life does not mean that you can live indefinitely, the main factor threatening the life of the Dala Immortals is the quantum of robbery, the quantum of robbery is the reason why in fact, and the renewal of one yuan is similar, but it is related to the thirty-six days of the universe of the universe of a refreshing, so that the energy to return to the universe, to achieve equilibrium.

About 50,000 one-dimensional renewal for a quantum of the robbery, that is, 50,000 times 129,600 years, for 6,480,000,000 years, the great gods can not live this number of years.
