Bab 24: Secrets to Immortality

"How can I extend life? How can I achieve immortality?" Lu Zhiyu said to himself. He was sitting in the yard, sunbathing. He felt that no matter how smart or how powerful he was, he could never dream of fighting against the flow of time. He would die sooner or later. Even though he could add inserts into his genes to strengthen himself and give himself different talents, he could not extend the maximum limits of his lifespan. Put aside the limitation of the genes that controls lifespan, he was unable to even prevent the failure of his organs over time - one of the primary reason why people died.

The first step to preventing death would be to prevent the organs from shutting down. And after that, the metabolism and cell renewal could come into the picture. However, those were only the initial steps. If he would like to achieve true immortality, there would be a long and difficult way to go.
