Alex's face was covered in both surprise and doubt. If the two Divine Senses indeed spoke the truth, then it was a matter for deep surprise. However, there was also a great chance for them to be lying. He could not for the life of him understand how the Progenitor could be alive for this long.
Everything he understood about Immortal life was that every 10 thousand years, every Immortal had to go through the Immortal Tribulation, be they body or soul. For the Heavenly Beasts, it was 15 thousand years.
If so, any Heavenly beasts who was at the end of the Divine realm would have a little over 900 thousand years of lifespan. Even if they were in the Celestial realm and at the peak of that, they only got another 300 thousand or so years before they perished.
At best, the lifespan of a Heavenly Beast, had they properly taken the Immortal Tribulation once every 15 thousand years, would be 1.2 million years. And the Progenitors were a lot older than that.
