When the time came… She dared not imagine it.
She stood there in a daze as she could not stop the tears streaming down her face. “My death doesn’t deserve pity, but my master is going to suffer criticisms from others because of me! Ihate you guys! How did I offend you guys…”
Hermione shrugged and did not say anything.

Meanwhile, Dave touched the golden coffin with the phantom fingers inside the cave-dwelling and said, “Young man, do you know how many years I have been lying inside this coffin?”
Alex shook his head.
Dave said, “It will be two full millennia next year.”
Alex looked at the formation blueprint on the ground and asked, “Did Senior use this kind of method to prolong your life? I also once heard the outsiders talk about you. You were a True Immortal two millennia ago. I have also read the ancient books and found out that one’s lifespan would increase by leaps and bounds after his cultivation base reaches Immortalization. Even someone who has just turned into an Immortal could live for three to five millennia if there’s neither pestilence nor disaster. Moreover, someone in the True Immortal realm could live for ten millennia. Could it be that you’re the supreme big shot that existed ten millennia ago?”
Dave shook his head. “Young man, didn’t the people from your sect tell you the reason that you can’t become an Immortal now?”
Alex replied, “I did hear about it. It’s because the laws in the current world are incomplete.”
Dave said, “That’s right. Then, do you know the real difference between the immortal realm and the mortal realm?”
Alex answered, “The law?!”
After finished listening to Dave’s words, Alex was a little dumbfounded for a moment. If this was really the case, could he still tum into an Immortal?
If he could not become an Immortal, wouldn’t he be unable to enter Nirvana of the great Genbu? Wouldn’t he be unable to see his daughter?
He was a little anxious.
“No, Senior. Have you heard of the Phoenix Sect? Legend has it that once you enter the Phoenix Sect Sanctuary, there would be complete laws over there, and you could transcend into an Immortal. It could also nourish the Wheel of Life…”
Dave shook his head. “I know about the Phoenix Sect. I once visited there before the decline of the Phoenix Sect Unfortunately, after the Phoenix Sect was sealed, no one knew its whereabouts. According to rumors, it’s hidden within the boundary marker of the universe. So, no one could enter it at all. Moreover, the laws inside it aren’t necessarily complete. Even if they’re complete, there would still be no laws available for use after coming out! Do you know what realm I was in three millennia ago?”
