Celestials of the Ten-Thousand-Year World¶
In the Lifechanyuan system, Celestials of the Ten-Thousand-Year World are the third tier of the five-tier celestial hierarchy — the terrestrial celestials (lù dì xiān 陆地仙) — inhabiting a real planet 3,480 light-years from Earth, sixteen times Earth's size, with sixteen suns, where approximately one hundred million celestials live for roughly 35,000 years; unlike the Thousand-Year World below them, these celestials possess genuine supernatural abilities, can fly, require no food or water, are immortal, and determine the moment of their own departure.
