When the time came⦠She dared not imagine it.
She stood there in a daze as she could not stop the tears streaming down her face. âMy death doesnât
deserve pity, but my master is going to suffer criticisms from others because of me! Ihate you guys!
How did I offend you guysâ¦â
Hermione shrugged and did not say anything.

Meanwhile, Dave touched the golden coffin with the phantom fingers inside the cave-dwelling and said,
âYoung man, do you know how many years I have been lying inside this coffin?â
Alex shook his head.
Dave said, âIt will be two full millennia next year.â
Alex looked at the formation blueprint on the ground and asked, âDid Senior use this kind of method to
prolong your life? I also once heard the outsiders talk about you. You were a True Immortal two
millennia ago. I have also read the ancient books and found out that oneâs lifespan would increase by
leaps and bounds after his cultivation base reaches Immortalization. Even someone who has just
turned into an Immortal could live for three to five millennia if thereâs neither pestilence nor disaster.
Moreover, someone in the True Immortal realm could live for ten millennia. Could it be that youâre the
supreme big shot that existed ten millennia ago?â
Dave shook his head. âYoung man, didnât the people from your sect tell you the reason that you canât
become an Immortal now?â
Alex replied, âI did hear about it. Itâs because the laws in the current world are incomplete.â
Dave said, âThatâs right. Then, do you know the real difference between the immortal realm and the
mortal realm?â
Alex answered, âThe law?!â
âThatâs right. Itâs the law. After the Immortalization stage, one could control the power of laws and
borrow help from the laws of heaven and earth. This is the essence of an Immortal!â Dave smiled
bitterly for a moment. âBut to stop the Undying Clan from invading the great world of America in ancient
times, the few Heavenly Emperors from the alliance joined forces to break the laws, causing the laws
here to be incomplete. Therefore, itâs a disaster to the human cultivators above the Immortalization
stage.â
Alex asked, âWhy did you say so?â
Dave said, âAbove the Immortalization stage, the Immortal Wheel of Life would be formed inside oneâs
body. This is the combination of the spiritual root and the laws. The Immortal Wheel of Life is the
foundation of all the Immortals. Its existence requires the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, fairy
energy, and the nourishment of the power of laws all the time. Now that the laws are incomplete, it has
become a luxury to nourish the Wheel of Life.â
âAnd, once the Immortal Wheel of Life loses the nourishment of the power of laws for a long time, it will
wither like a flower and its vitality will fade because of the insufficient fairy energy. Finally, it will be at its
last gasp and even fall apart⦠Thereâs only a dead end for an Immortal without the Immortal Wheel of
Life.â
âIâm reluctant. I donât want to die yet because I still have to wait for someone.â
âSo, here I am, sealing myself in to slow down the withering period of the Immortal Wheel of Life.â
âIn fact, the people above the Immortalization stage who remained from the ancient times back then
faced such embarrassment too. As a result, many people chose to seal themselves, waiting for the
laws to return to normal someday. So, itâs difficult for you to meet a True Immortal and a deity now.â
After finished listening to Daveâs words, Alex was a little dumbfounded for a moment. If this was really
the case, could he still tum into an Immortal?
If he could not become an Immortal, wouldnât he be unable to enter Nirvana of the great Genbu?
Wouldnât he be unable to see his daughter?
He was a little anxious.
âNo, Senior. Have you heard of the Phoenix Sect? Legend has it that once you enter the Phoenix Sect
Sanctuary, there would be complete laws over there, and you could transcend into an Immortal. It could
also nourish the Wheel of Lifeâ¦â
Dave shook his head. âI know about the Phoenix Sect. I once visited there before the decline of the
Phoenix Sect Unfortunately, after the Phoenix Sect was sealed, no one knew its whereabouts.
According to rumors, itâs hidden within the boundary marker of the universe. So, no one could enter it at
all. Moreover, the laws inside it arenât necessarily complete. Even if theyâre complete, there would still
be no laws available for use after coming out! Do you know what realm I was in three millennia ago?â
