Immortality is neither a good nor a bad thing; the advantages are obvious, and the disadvantages are also obvious.
Ancient emperors spent countless hours and resources in their quest for immortality.
However, although people are still afraid of death now, they are more able to see these things clearly than in ancient times.
Therefore, Chen Yang's family chose to die of natural causes, and he didn't say anything.
If he had many slots for immortality, it would be much better if everyone gathered together and wouldn't be lonely.
However, he only has three spots, which is far from enough.
Afterwards, he and Li Su'er went to inquire with Li Su'er's parents.
Chen Yang naturally prioritized choosing his closest relatives, so when he asked Li Su'er's parents for their opinions later, Li Su'er had no objections.
Because there really weren't enough spots, her parents could only choose one of them at most, so she couldn't make that decision.
Moreover, the price of immortality is very high, extremely high.
Li Su'er's parents ultimately chose to die of natural causes.
They are not very old; living past 100 in the micro-world is not a difficult thing.
They feel they've had enough; any longer and they'll get bored and tired.
Moreover, there's only one spot left, so it doesn't really matter who gets it.
They naturally wouldn't blame Chen Yang for prioritizing his family. Who wouldn't think of their own family in such a situation? Besides, in the end, one of the two immortality slots went to their daughter, and the other to their grandson.
So, in the end, this spot remained vacant.
The Micro Realm has no time limit for use, so Chen Yang can keep it indefinitely.
Chen Yang could roughly guess that the reason why the Micro Realm only offered three immortality slots was that immortality must come at a price.
For him personally, he was born in the land beyond the boundary, so he shouldn't need to pay any price.
To grant immortality to others, their souls must be forcibly reconstructed while retaining their memories.
Chen Yang had no idea how difficult it would be to do this.
He can give people a second life, but he can't grant them immortality.
The difference in difficulty is like the difference between repairing a piece of porcelain with a crack and repairing a piece of porcelain that has been shattered—they are not even on the same level.
Chen Yang did not discuss the matter of immortality and becoming a vessel for the outer realms with the other inhabitants or the Chinese.
He's already invincible enough; taking another step forward would only increase their anxiety, so there's no need to say anything.
However, Chen Yang was still worried because the Microverse seemed to have a pessimistic view of the alien invasion.
The microcosm's view is that humanity is about to undergo a dramatic change, meaning that the possibility of resisting an invasion with minimal losses is very low.
What exactly are these aliens like? Do they have a civilization? Or are their individual abilities so powerful that they can travel through the universe?
The micro-world didn't elaborate, and Chen Yang had no way of guessing. He could only be certain that with humanity at present, it was definitely impossible to resist. He could only hope that the other side would arrive later.
That night, Chen Yang slept outside the boundary and did not enter the micro-realm, because he vaguely sensed that something might change on the first night.
Sure enough, after he fell asleep, he could clearly feel his soul separating from his body.
This was similar to the astral projection in Chinese legends, but there were some differences. He felt that he was not actually leaving his body, but rather entering another body from another body.
He felt his physical body suddenly become infinitely vast, completely different from controlling a human body.
On a whim, he arrived at Qingyang Island in an instant.
Chen Yang could sense that he could change the climate of Qingyang Island and everything around it, but such adjustments would come at a price.
The world is like a human body; it is perfectly complete, and any change in any part of it will come at a price.
However, once the change occurs, it becomes part of this world, integrated into its rules.
This applies to the microcosm as well as the realms beyond it.
So-called climate anomalies are actually just viewed from Earth's perspective; every world has its own laws.
Chen Yang's consciousness returned to his hut. He reached out, and suddenly a towering tree grew behind the hut, its shadow covering half of the eaves.
Suddenly, flowers began to climb all over the fence of the cottage, tender green grass sprouted on the lawn, ivy climbed up half of the cottage wall, and strawberries in the field in front of the cottage grew and ripened at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The persimmon tree by the door also quickly grew thick and strong, and then bore fruit.
In less than a minute, the entire exterior of the cottage was transformed, with even the roof now surrounded by green vines.
It's just a renovation of a small hut, and Chen Yang can afford the energy required. Moreover, he only needs to contribute a small portion of the energy; most of the energy will be provided by the outer realm itself.
He provided a starting point, and the rest was left for the outside world to handle themselves.
However, when Qingyang Island was being transformed, the changes to the entire island were too numerous and the scope of those changes was thousands of times wider than that of the small house. Chen Yang simply couldn't handle that amount of energy.
So, he fainted that time.
He guessed that it was the consciousness from beyond the boundary that helped him, otherwise that one blow would have turned him into a dried-up human body.
He can now feel the cost of change.
Moreover, he has become much more precise in his control over the changes made.
It's just a change in the size of the small house; he can change it frequently.
It's not impossible to cover a cabin with snow in the middle of summer, but that would require more energy.
It's better to follow the seasons and climate to consume less.
The next day, when Li Su'er woke up, she was utterly stunned by the sight before her.
Before going to sleep, the scene outside the cabin was still that of winter, but in the blink of an eye it turned into spring with flowers in bloom.
This is amazing!
He knew that this must be Chen Yang's masterpiece.
"That tree is so cool!"
"My goodness, there are roses on the roof."
"The strawberries are ripe! They're so sweet and delicious."
Li Su'er was overjoyed and dragged Chen Nian around the small house.
Chen Yang made quite a few changes to the cabin yesterday, all on a whim. Although it only took a minute or two, it was full of surprises.
Chen Nian was also very surprised, and he shouted happily along with Li Su'er, the two of them acting like two children.
When the European Emperor came out of the house, Chen Yang saw him and suddenly thought of something.
"Your Majesty, would you be willing to live forever with me?" he asked Your Majesty.
His first thought was of his family, and he subconsciously thought of humanity, forgetting about the European Emperor. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
The lucky one is the one who has been with him since the very beginning of the micro-world.
The European Emperor thought for a moment and nodded.
Chen Yang smiled, then called Li Su'er over and told her about it.
Li Su'er didn't have a single item, and Chen Nian was very happy.
"Uncle Lucky can stay with me for a lifetime!"
The Emperor of Europe affectionately let Chen Nian climb onto his back, and then they began to run and play in the courtyard.
Chen Yang thought that if the European Emperor had really lived for hundreds of years, his IQ would probably surpass that of most humans.
