[Immortality] [No System] [Not a Power Fantasy] [Fictional Setting]
"Heaven and earth can endure forever because they do not live for themselves. That is why they can live long."
Perhaps you have seen a dazzling age, where spiritual energy fills the land, countless clans stand alongside one another, and prodigies abound.
But have you seen the end of an era, when spiritual energy is all but absent, the higher one's cultivation, the faster one's lifespan runs out, and cultivation grows ever more perilous? The slightest lapse invites inner demons, turning cultivators into mindless killing machines. Countless great powers in the eyes of the world vanish, mighty beings retreat from the world in hopes of surviving the calamity at an era's end, and countless sects, families, and clans seal their mountains and shut their gates. No one in the world can ascend to become a mighty being anymore.
