"Master, can we not ascend?" "No, the spiritual energy is about to dry up, and the Heaven and Earth Bridge is the last chance." "But the spiritual energy will eventually recover, why can't we wait until that day?" "Because in the end of the Dharma era, we will grow old and die soon, and no one can survive until the day when the spiritual energy revives." "What if someone can really wait until that day?" "... Then he will become the god of the new era!"
