The Immortal Path is elusive, and the extended lifespan of the strongest beings is unimaginable to ordinary mortals. Yet even they cannot fully explore the Immortal Path.
Many of the strongest, when nearing the end of their lifespan, choose to leave the world alone and step into the Chaos, seeking a possibility of breakthrough.
After all, compared to the uncertain ascension of the world, seeking a breakthrough in the Chaos when life is nearing its end seems a slimmer possibility.
Originally, for these strongest beings, if not for the revival of the Ancestral Land, their ending would be the same as their predecessors.
But even with the resurgence of the Ancestral Land, rumors of a Golden Great World where perhaps a path to Immortality may appear were not widely believed by the strongest.
