The vast majority of cultivators, upon the verge of their destined demise, are extremely unwilling and will perform various unimaginable and unthinkable acts of desperation.
Even among immortals, whose Daoist hearts appear perfect, when confronted with the terrifying prospect of life and death, many will take actions at the last moment that are incongruously different compared to their usual demeanor.
Because even common immortals, or Earth Immortals who have opened up their blessed lands, still have lifespan limits and are trapped within them. Only when one truly achieves the fruit position of a Heavenly Immortal can they theoretically attain immortality – but even heavenly immortals must pass through three disasters and nine tribulations.
Only after surviving all these trials can they truly achieve infinite life, invincibility throughout ten thousands of calamities; otherwise, they can only reincarnate and live another life.
