This has come up before, and it's quite silly. If you want to go D3 there's no reason you can't. You access to two mages that allow you to overcome D3, both of which don't have old age to begin with.

A B1 mage that's a great blood hunter. And you have a F2 mage that can cast phoenix pyre and be just as good a nuker as the F3 mage.

You have to research construction 6, I think, before you can build the boots of youth, but they're quite cheap at only 10 blood slaves apiece. You also desperately need to get to construction 6 so that you can pump out the lightless lanterns because all your researchers suck.
