Chapter 2112: Nonexistent World (1/2)

“The nonexistent world is a thing?” The prince had heard his seniors talked about it too many times: “The reincarnation of the epochs means destruction, but that world is still an exceptional, capable of escaping from all punishments.”

He was not certain at all and would question these speculations if they didn’t come from his reliable loved ones.

The world wasn’t aware of how long an epoch was, same with weaker emperors. This was a privilege left to the twelve-will existences that could gaze through the river of time. They came to find that no epoch could escape from this cycle.

Thus, they started the expeditions in order to jump out of this rule so that they could protect their epoch.

Outside of this path, rumor has it that there was a world outside of the destruction cycle, not under the gaze of the high heaven.

It was an incalculable and unreachable world. No one knew how it was formed or what was there, hence the name - The World That Does Not Exist or Nonexistent World.

Of course, the twelve-will emperors could only have a slight idea, unable to actually visit there.

Fei and Deep South were certainly at the very top of the ladder in the thirteen continents. Their mighty power still wasn’t enough.

“Only lords of the epochs can go there?” The prince was shaken, aware of the immense difficulties.

“The lords can’t forcefully do it when the timing and luck aren’t right.” Li Qiye shook his head while pointing at his chest: “Sufficient power, luck, and a dao heart are essential for this journey.”

He paused for a bit before continuing: “Because of this, very few have made it here, and I don’t think anyone had done it in our epoch. In my opinion, our current dark overlords can’t either unless they were to have a breakthrough. But if one of them were able to take this next step, they wouldn’t be hiding in the shadow right now.”

“What kind of world is it? One with immortals?” The prince couldn’t imagine.

“Something similar to ours, not sure about immortals though.” Li Qiye said with a smile.

The prince was very interested in this matter. His father and grandfather were the strongest but they have never seen an immortal. Perhaps this level of being only belonged in the myths.

“That depends on how you define an immortal.” Li Qiye replied.

The prince contemplated for a bit. No one has ever seen one before so he didn’t know how to properly define one either, despite his great knowledge.

“Your Excellency, what is your definition?” The prince looked at Li Qiye.

Li Qiye chuckled and said: “My definition would be, indestructibility and eternal life, without resorting to external items. That’s an immortal. Anything else, regardless of how close, would only be a pseudo-immortal.” [1]

“Without using external items…” The prince took a deep breath. No one in this world could accomplish this task, at least not in his mind.

Li Qiye couldn’t do it either. His Dark Crow form satisfied the first two requirements but not the third since it needed the Longevity Gra.s.s. His current self couldn’t do so either. He hid his souls already but he would still die eventually. There were other powers available that could end him as well.

An “immortal” should be unkillable by anything and have eternal life.

“Then I don’t think one exists.” The prince smiled wryly after hearing this definition.

Li Qiye chuckled: “Indeed, but nothing is certain. Perhaps there are pseudo-immortals outside of our world.”
