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 Mana at a slow rate, and the Death Mana would slowly overtake the body.

First came the sickness. Old people would become ill many more times than younger people.

Then came weakness. The increased density of Death Mana would weaken the body and the mind. The body wouldn't be able to summon as much power as before, and the mind wouldn't be able to focus as much.

In this state, summoning one point of willpower was as difficult as summoning ten points of willpower when one was younger.

The lack of willpower and motivation would tire someone out, and they would just want to sleep and relax.

This was death.

The end of life.

Shang was so tired.

He just didn't want to continue anymore.

He had fought for so long.

He had suffered for so long.

So what if he didn't achieve his goal?

Right now, he just wanted to sleep and forget about all of this.

Nothing mattered since everyone would someday die anyway.

What's the point of being the strongest if he would just die in a million years or whatever anyway?

Every person was just a transient visitor to life. Someone poor and weak without a family might completely vanish from the world within 20 years.

A normal mortal might die within 80. Their grandchildren would still remember them, but would the children of the grandchildren remember the mortal?

What about those children?

And the children of those?

At some point, the mortal would be completely forgotten.

No one would remember them.

No one would remember what they had done.

What was the difference between them existing and not existing?

The existence of the children?

That lineage would eventually come to an end as well, and then what?

And what about a powerful Mage?

Wasn't it just the same but on a bigger scale?

Many of the Mage Emperors had been friends with the Mage God, which meant that they all were less than 500,000 years old.

Sure, that was a lot of time, but had the world existed for only those 500,000 years?
