Chapter 313
Age.
The universal rule of the universe and its creation. One can escape death, try to, at least, but they can never, ever escape aging. The curse of aging can never be escaped from.
[Unless one's an immortal]
'Well, I'm not technically immortal.'
Technically, the issue was quite deep so it was better to leave it at that. The current issue was the issue of aging. One could never stop doing that. Everyone ages, no matter what.
Even the emperor, back in the Cortum Empire, would age and die as well. He may look like a seventy-year-old man but he was probably somewhere between 110-120. The same went for this old man.
The Water Demon. The core of the heavenly demon sect. He ages, just like everyone else. Of course, Qi, unlike mana, was the force of life, just like spiritual energy, so one would age very, very slowly.
This old man was at least above 120, if not more. Yet he looked like somewhere around 60.
