Chapter 290: Impossible Immortality, Chen Changsheng: Show Me a Smile
“Whoosh!”
The light flashed, and the vulture’s head rolled to the ground.
“Huff!”
A ball of flame was thrown onto the vulture’s body. Watching the flames blaze fiercely, Wang Hao turned and walked away.
Once Wang Hao left, the burning flames instantly vanished, and the flying head reattached itself to the vulture’s neck.
The flesh began to regenerate, and the wound at the neck was completely repaired by golden silkworm threads.
“Tsk tsk!”
“It turns out that once one reaches a certain level of cultivation, it becomes quite difficult to d*e.”
“System, could it be that the Sea of Suffering System is the true path to immortality?”
In response to Chen Changsheng’s inquiry, the system’s electronic voice sounded.
“The truth is, the Sea of Suffering System, although powerful, is not true immortality.”
“Why? The Sea of Suffering System unites essence, energy, and spirit. Whether it’s physical remnants or spiritual remnants, one can be reborn from d*ath.”
“For instance, just now, although my movements were destroyed by Wang Hao, my spiritual sense remained undamaged.”
“As long as the spiritual sense remains, regenerating even from a drop of bl**d is not difficult.”
“With time, my cultivation will become stronger, so theoretically, few should be able to k*ll me.”
Upon hearing this, the system replied, “Your statement isn’t incorrect, but you overlooked something.”
“What is it?”
“Time!”
“Indeed, the Sea of Suffering System is powerful, and theoretically, it can approach immortality infinitely.”
“But you overlooked time. The Sea of Suffering System is a new system after the Golden Core System.”
“The Golden Core System was discarded because it no longer fit the era. If one day, the Sea of Suffering System also becomes outdated…”
“Your hypothesis about achieving immortality through the Sea of Suffering System would naturally be wrong.”
Upon hearing these words, Chen Changsheng was stunned for a moment and immediately said, “The Sea of Suffering System has only recently appeared, and this system hasn’t been fully developed yet.”
“Even if a new system replaces it in the future, it will take a very long time.”
“The truth is, the replacement of a cultivation system certainly takes a long time.”
“It could be tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years.”
“But once time has a specific measure, can it still be called immortality?”
After listening, Chen Changsheng fell silent.
Since he decided to seek immortality for his old friend, Chen Changsheng had been studying methods for achieving longevity.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have wasted so much time on Wang Hao.
After such extensive research, Chen Changsheng had gained considerable insights into living longer.
However, there was one issue he couldn’t get past: the change of eras.
Some methods that work now might not be effective in ten thousand years.
Thinking about this, Chen Changsheng spoke again, “System, does that mean I just need to stay ahead of the times?”
“In theory, that would indeed allow for immortality.”
“But in reality, this situation doesn’t exist. You can’t always be ahead of everyone.”
“There are many powerful beings in this world. They have lived here much longer than you.”
“Their talents and abilities are unparalleled. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have lived so long.”
“But the Sea of Suffering System wasn’t created by them. These powerful beings were surpassed by you two weak ones.”
“Similarly, over time, you will also become a powerful being.”
“And in this vast sea of people, there will be weaker ones who surpass you. At least in some aspects and periods.”
Facing the system’s words, Chen Changsheng fell silent again.
Back then, when he and Wu Li competed for the Heavenly Mandate, they were truly fearless young bulls.

Regardless of any forbidden grounds or sacred places, both he and Wu Li never feared them.
But now, looking back, the initial success was too perilous.
Without mentioning anything else, just the Sacred Forbidden Ground alone was enough to become an insurmountable mountain.
On the Ascension Road, the Sacred Forbidden Ground produced three Heavenly Mandate Holders, with the one having the longest lifespan being a ten-thousand-year-old existence.
In terms of strength and knowledge, the former self was far inferior to the other party.
Yet, under such circumstances, he and Wu Li managed to surpass them.
Not only did they defeat countless contemporary prodigies, but they also repelled the deep-rooted offspring of the forbidden grounds.
In the future, will I also be defeated by such “Wu Li” and “Chen Changsheng”?
Thinking about this, Chen Changsheng sighed softly and said, “System, what you’ve given me is truly the strongest and best thing in the world.”
“Longevity is easy, but immortality is hard.”
“When the timeline is stretched infinitely, relying solely on one’s own power to achieve immortality is a daunting task.”
“The System agrees with the Host’s viewpoint.”
Hearing the System’s straightforward answer, Chen Changsheng grinned.
“Hahaha!”
“System, you really don’t know how to be humble!”
“Alright, let’s end the small talk. I’m going to see that Third Miss of the Wang Family.”
“The Wang Family’s quest for immortality is still interesting.”
…
In a hidden valley.
A beautiful young woman lay motionless on the ground, her eyes filled with despair.
At this moment, Chen Changsheng approached from afar.
“Tsk tsk!”
“Third Miss, what happened? Did someone bully you?”
Faced with Chen Changsheng’s question, the Third Miss remained indifferent.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng waved his hand to recall his clone and started taking off his clothes.
Such behavior finally elicited a reaction from the Third Miss lying on the ground.
She jumped up suddenly and covered her chest, suspiciously asking, “What are you doing?”
“What else? Of course, I want to sleep with you!”
“After all, since you have nothing to live for, why not do something good for me and let me enjoy this stinking skin of yours.”
“After I’m done enjoying it, you can slowly seek d*ath. That way, we won’t be wasting each other’s time.”
Hearing this, the Third Miss immediately panicked.
“Who said I wanted to seek d*ath? Why would I want to d*e if I can live?”
“If you don’t want to d*e, why didn’t you respond to my clone earlier?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll be quick, so it won’t delay you.”
As Chen Changsheng took another step forward, the Third Miss was almost scared out of her wits. She said tearfully,
“I wanted to d*e just now, but I don’t anymore.”
“Really?”
“Absolutely, I don’t want to d*e at all now.”
“Then show me a smile.”
The Third Miss:
Though she was reluctant and troubled, she had no choice but to comply.
A smile that looked even worse than crying was forced out.
