When confronted by death, many people would think about their life and reevaluate past decisions. What were their regrets? What would they have changed? Maybe they shouldn't have been so strict with their children? Maybe they shouldn't have broken up with their first love? If they hadn't taken out that loan from those dangerous people, their children would have something to inherit today? Naturally, Shang wasn't any different. Should he have been more amongst people? Should he have accepted the…

Time passed. Shang just kept breathing heavily as he became weaker and weaker. A lot of his grit and willpower had already vanished, and he felt like dying wouldn't be such a bad idea anymore. However, Shang also recognized that this was the effect of Death Mana entering his mind. There was no Death Mana around Shang, but Shang's mind was still slowly being filled with Death Mana. That was just natural. This was how Death Mana worked. At some point, the body and mind would start to produce Death…

Shang just kept lying in the middle of the cave, breathing heavily. He was so old. He was so weak. He was so tired. Yet, there was nothing he could do but try to learn as much about his current situation as possible. He had arrived at the end of his life, but there was still a way to extend it. Shang hadn't achieved his goal yet, and he wouldn't stop trying to achieve it. How many people knew the level three Concept of Death? Extremely few. The Concepts of Death were just as rare as the Concepts…

Shang sat alone in front of a brightly shining stone in an impossibly dark cave. Even though the stone was shining brightly, the light seemingly vanished after just a couple of meters, leaving deep darkness behind. This was the Twilight Cave, and it was the best place for the Clouds to comprehend the Concept of Twilight. Sadly, this place saw visitors only very rarely since everyone with a Twilight Affinity would prefer to enter the Twilight Dusk Family. Naturally, the Lightning Manor couldn't compare…

The space around Shang shook due to Queen Primordium's shock. As a Mage King, Queen Primordium had a very close connection to the world, and her perception could pick up things that even millions of Mage Lords couldn't. Obviously, since Shang was here, this meant that Lucin's problem was related to Shang. So, she analyzed Shang very quickly, and what she saw made her question reality for just an instant. It was a being at the Initial Sixth Realm that was at the Peak Fifth Realm. It made no sense. The…

Silence. Shang didn't say anything for a long time. He had consumed his momentum? It was a simple sentence, but for some reason, Shang couldn't understand it. What did Lucin mean by that he had consumed his momentum? Shang had finally comprehended his version of Void Casting, right? He needed that to reach the Sixth Realm, right? And now, he couldn't reach the Sixth Realm? But he was already 900 years old! He only had a century left! "What?" Shang asked after several seconds. Lucin nodded. "You…

The door to the Isolation Chamber opened, and a fleshy sludge was revealed. A moment later, green water appeared inside the Isolation Chamber and coated the fleshy sludge. At the same time, all the Mana in the surroundings flowed into the Isolation Chamber and vanished. After a couple of seconds, a person seemed to materialize in the sludge, and they eventually stepped out. Shang had recovered. This period of being in the Isolation Chamber was just as horrible as all the previous ones. Shang could…

Shang went to Fleros and bought another two Grade Seven Mana Crystals worth of Furnace Pills. Fleros had given Shang around 2,400 Furnace Pills ever since he had arrived in the Hibye, and Fleros still had difficulties wrapping his mind around the fact that Shang wanted more. Sure, people wanted to become more powerful, but this was just too extreme. Nevertheless, Fleros had decided to keep a stock of about 1,000 Furnace Pills, and that had been just enough since Shang had asked for 800 more. Shang left…

Shang had comprehended two Concepts, and they weren't just any Concepts. They were Concepts related to one of the two most mysterious Affinities in existence, Life and Death. The Custodian only knew the first two Concepts of the Life Affinity, and he was one of the most powerful Mage Kings. This showed how difficult it was to comprehend any Concepts related to these two Affinities. How many people knew the first two Concepts of Death? Well, how would one even go about learning about them? They would…

And then, it was like something inside Shang twitched. It was like a mortal had been sitting for a long while, and their leg just did a small twitch after being in the same position for a while. It was a subconscious action of little importance or thought. Yet, this little subconscious action was just Shang's mind activating his Domain of Entropy a tiny bit to clean his body and surroundings. It was just like when Shang was cleaning his clothes and body of blood. It was simple and normal to…
