My Simulated Path to Immortality

A plague afflicts mortals, and any immortal who touches it risks losing their cultivation or even their life. This creates an unbridgeable divide between the two realms. I arrived in this world with lofty dreams, yet found myself trapped among mortals, my life slipping away in futility. But at death’s door, I awakened an arcane artifact capable of reshaping reality into illusion. It transformed my lived experience into a mere dream, allowing me to return to the very moment of my arrival.
