Immortality, for the vast majority of people, will not be an unfamiliar word!
However, there are very few people who really have the courage to pursue immortality!
Even in the vast majority of the time, people often have an instinctive rejection of the so-called immortality......
I feel that all the people who are talking about the so-called immortality are those fools who are out of the real world, either they are liars themselves, or they are unlucky ghosts who have been deceived by liars......
In the real world, if someone's dream is to live forever, then in a sense, the dream itself is actually ridiculous!
The reason is simple......
Because in the real world, almost no one thinks that immortality is something that can be achieved......
Although in the world of online novels, immortality or immortality is usually the basic attribute that the protagonist has......
But in the real world, immortality is an unsolvable proposition, and anyone who tries to pursue immortality will be considered stupid by others!
Just like a young person in modern life, if he does not study, but chooses to go into the mountains to seek Taoism, and become a Taoist priest, I am afraid that this young man's relatives and friends will not understand this behavior, and they will think that this person has a problem with his brain, and they will think that this person is a typical negative teaching material......
However, in fact, for this person, what he pursues is nothing more than peace of mind at the level of the soul, and it is just the joy of knowing the fish......
In fact, from a historical point of view, countless emperors and generals are trying to pursue the way of immortality, especially for those emperors who have stood at the pinnacle of power in the world......
Whether it is power, wealth, or beauty, they are already floating clouds for them, and the only thing that can really interest them is immortality!
Because only by immortality can they be superior in the true sense, and they can truly enjoy their glory and wealth!
However, countless emperors have failed in the end......
And their failure, in the eyes of later generations, is a kind of stupidity to waste the government......
It is obviously impossible to live forever, but he wants to ask for immortality, and as a result, the emperors who seek immortality often end up with no one who can really live forever......
Later, people learned from this, and naturally extinguished the idea of immortality, and even felt that all those who wanted to pursue immortality were actually stupid......

However, is immortality really not worth pursuing?
The answer, of course, is no!
In a sense, in all value systems......
Immortality is one of the most valuable life goals......
It can be said that achieving the so-called immortality is equivalent to achieving the life goals of the vast majority of people in this world......
Because the foundation for the attainment of all goals can be built on this foundation of immortality......
As long as people get long enough, force and strength will naturally improve, and wisdom and experience will continue to improve in this process......
Under this premise, all ideals and goals in this world can be achieved theoretically......
Just like the emperor Shakti in the storm, he is called an immortal because of the phoenix blood he obtains, and because of this, he can enjoy all the ideals he thinks he wants to achieve, he can become the leader of the martial arts alliance, he can become the emperor general, he can become any kind of person he wants to be, and even in the eyes of ordinary people, he can become an existence like a god!
The only problem with Shakti was that his immortality came too accidentally, which made him lack the mentality of a normal person to become an immortal, which led to him eventually becoming crazy and losing his mind, and becoming a madman who was as powerful as a god!
Many people always associate this madness with immortality, thinking that the reason why Shakti was crazy was because he was immortal, so after a long time, he naturally got tired of everything, and then finally became crazy and unreasonable......
But in fact, this kind of madness itself has nothing to do with immortality, and the most fundamental reason why Emperor Shakti is crazy is that although he has the power of an immortal, he lacks the state of mind that an immortal should have, so he can't really dominate himself, can't find the so-called self, and more often, he is dominated by crazy desires, and reason is gradually swallowed up......
So in the end, he became a puppet who constantly pursued power, and the immortal body only made him more crazy......

This, just like the nouveau riche in reality!
Nouveau riche are always more likely to suffer blows and setbacks than ordinary rich people, and they are also more likely to become sluggish......
Because of their sudden outburst, in essence, many times it is not based on their own operation of wealth, but on the basis of luck......
And good luck cannot accompany them all the time, they have the luck to earn wealth, but they lack enough to control the wealth of the state of mind and ability, so wealth will naturally slip away between their fingers little by little......
Just like when winning money in the casino, a rich man wins a million, and he can often easily integrate this million into his cash flow, so as to create greater wealth, but if an ordinary gambler gets this million, most of the time he will eventually lose back, because a gambler does not have the state of mind to control huge wealth most of the time......
Of course, the situation of professional gamblers is different, the vast majority of professional gamblers, will earn part of the gambling funds into their own fixed assets, only take out a certain percentage of gambling funds for gambling activities, for them, gambling itself is a kind of work, just like some people speculate on stocks for a living......
Some people, who lack sufficient state of mind, even if they are given enough strength, tend to become easily distorted......
Just like some of the second generation of officials and the second generation of rich people in reality, they have a part of the huge influence of their elders, but they don't know how to use these wealth or rights really reasonably, and the final result is often a cheat, in the final analysis, they don't have the same state of mind as their elders, enough to control huge wealth and huge power!
When a person regards talent, wealth or power as a toy, then this person's state of mind has been completely distorted, and it is only a matter of time before he cheats......
Between gains and losses, there are many times no boundaries at all!

Immortality itself is not a bad thing......
It can even be said that it is something that everyone should strive for!
It's just that the vast majority of people always have the mentality that they can't do it themselves, and they don't want others to be able to do it......
At least in a world of scientific civilization, the vast majority of people do not have any expectations for immortality!
In their cognition, the lifespan of a person is a fixed number that cannot be changed, and even if it is to be changed, it can only be changed from the scientific and genetic levels......
As for cultivating this way, in their eyes, it is actually a very, very nonsense thing......
In fact, the way of immortality, many people will have similar thoughts and pursuits to a greater or lesser extent when they are young......
After all, when we feel the fear and pain of death, everyone expects that they will not experience such pain and not bring such fear to others!
However, as people get older, common sense gradually tells them how difficult it can be to live forever, and it can even be said that it is impossible!
Even the most brilliant monks, or the most knowledgeable Taoist priests, will inevitably turn to dust after the age of 100, or form relics or something......
Because of this, people naturally let go of the pursuit of immortality and began to seek to find the wonderful in their limited lives......
It is under this premise that people will pursue wealth, power, and enjoyment!
Because people know that life is short, they must plan their lives carefully so that they do not leave any regrets in their lives......
In the process of pursuing these, the vast majority of people do not pay too much attention to health......
Because, health itself does not mean that there will be no aging, in fact, even if a person is healthy, it is impossible to resist the power of aging, birth, old age, sickness and death, a person can not get sick, but it is impossible not to age......
As long as people age, people's sense of happiness will naturally decline with the rise of age, and health is just a subtlety, aging itself is an insoluble disease......
If you already have an incurable disease, why bother with other diseases? Anyway, sooner or later, everyone has to face death!
Because of this, people are always more inclined to earn wealth to enrich their lives, after all, health is an ethereal concept in itself, but wealth is a real thing!
If a person is really sick, he may not be able to fill it no matter how much money he has, but people with wealth, even when facing illness, always occupy a certain initiative......
Of course, if conditions permit, when people choose whether to have a healthy life or choose to have enough wealth, I am afraid that the vast majority of people will still choose the former!
Health itself is something with a higher priority than wealth, but health itself is an uncertain thing, even if a person is well maintained, there is no guarantee that he will be free from all diseases in the real sense and be able to die right, that is, because of this uncertainty, so it enhances people's pursuit of wealth!
And immortality is actually a healthy and advanced desire......
It's just that compared to the uncertainty of health, the possibility of immortality is infinitely close to zero, which is why in reality, there are very few people who pursue immortality for reasons!
However, this does not mean that immortality is not people's pursuit, if someone can really do it, it is definitely enough to cause a huge sensation on a global scale, and even enough to shake the cognition of all mankind!
