   Reader note

   "Eternal Life at the Beginning, and Enduring to the End of the World" is a wonderful fantasy work. The protagonist achieves immortality at the beginning, but lives a low-key life. In the treacherous world of immortality, there are constant disputes between various forces. He plots and plans in the dark, and can skillfully resolve every danger. The writing style is humorous and the plot has ups and downs, vividly showing the wonders and thrills of the road to immortality, allowing you to appreciate a different way to immortality. "I am sick, the name of the disease is Immortality" This book is extremely creative, the protagonist's longevity turns out to be a "disease". On the road to immortality, he sought treatment alone and experienced countless love, hatred and vicissitudes of the world. The setting of the story is novel and unique, and it analyzes the concept of immortality from a new angle. The plot is gripping, and the lines are filled with profound thoughts on life, emotion and destiny. It makes people deeply immersed in it and amazed when reading it. "Eternal Immortality, Bury Heaven, Bury Earth, Bury All Living Beings" I highly recommend this novel. It builds a grand world view. The protagonist possesses the power of eternal immortality and faces all living beings in the world with a detached attitude. The battle scenes in the book are shocking, and the emotions are complicated. There is not only the passion for the ultimate pursuit of power, but also the deep compassion for all things in the world. The text is full of tension, taking you into an immortal legendary world full of fantasy and mystery.
