I'm Really Going to Become an Immortal Chapter 251 - 195 Deep Breathing, Dizziness is Normal

Things always co full circle.

All things are like this.

The developnt process of anything does not proceed in a straight line but tends to encounter internal or external limitations after reaching a certain peak or saturation state, preventing it from continuing indefinitely.

This process reflects the principle of dynamic balance commonly present in natural and social phenona, reminding us that the state of things is relative, temporary, and continuous unidirectional developnt will inevitably cause reverse changes.

And the ultimate pleasure does not necessarily bring pleasure.

Not to ntion the sense of loss after feeling pleasure, just the sensory experience of excessive saturation is already not pleasurable.

There is a limit to what nerves can withstand.

A constantly tense string will eventually snap at so point.

Death is inevitable.

And Chen Yun did not pay attention to what followed for the woman.

Given the spiritual power he invested, the intensity was also unprecedentedly high, leading him to death.

In the quiet night of Laoag, he headed towards the people and places the woman had ntioned.

In the night of Laoag, moonlight gently covered the ancient streets like a fine gauze, giving this historically rich city a layer of tranquil silver brilliance.

The streetlights were sparse, the light dim.

Stretching the shadows of the pedestrians, casting them on the cobblestone road, painting a picture of solitude and peace. A breeze gently wafted, carrying the saltiness of the sea and the faint fragrance of distant flowers, as if able to blow away the noise and dust of the day.

However, beneath this calm appearance,

the night beca the perfect disguise, allowing various secret dealings and hidden conspiracies to quietly unfold in the dark.

In the shadows, pairs of eyes flashed with a cold gleam, surveilling every unsuspecting corner. At the other end of the street, occasional footsteps seed especially heavy in the quiet night, each step seeming to tread on the edge of people’s hearts.

The governnt system and military strength of the Philippines are not comparable to those of the major countries, especially since it had been colonized by Spain before.

That’s why the nights here are chaotic.

The nights in Laoag are like a dancer wearing a mask. Seemingly elegant and composed on the surface but strategically moving in the dark, concealing sharp decisiveness unknown to others. In this night, where calmness and killing intent intertwined, every soul silently narrated its own story, so seeking shelter, others lying in wait, ready to deliver a fatal blow.

At this mont, Chen Yun was also part of the unrest lurking in the night.

He followed the list, walking through the streets and alleys of Laoag at night.

There were many people on the list not in Laoag.

Among those in Laoag, there was an uncrowned king who indirectly controlled the local governnt’s higher-ups through various ans, undoubtedly the biggest fish here.

He had neither the ti nor the energy to bother with small fries.

So he decided to go straight for the jugular.

To find the largest grey domain leader in Laoag, who was also the uncrowned king able to indirectly influence the governnt through various ans—Abba Lerner.

According to the woman, this Abba Lerner started with transnational smuggling and had gradually beco Laoag’s underground ruler by bribing corrupt officials and nurturing private ard forces.

Such situations were not uncommon in the Philippines.

And for Chen Yunlai, such a character was undoubtedly a useful pawn.

Abba Lerner controlled Laoag’s governnt and the underground grey domains, while he could indirectly control Abba Lerner from behind the scenes.

Violence, as the eternal first privilege, always tramples over the second, third, and fourth privileges of political legality, money, and influence.

In the underlying logic of social structure and human interaction, violence, as a primitive display of strength, forms the basic support of all power relations.

Above all social norms, legal systems, and economic foundations, violence as a potential, most direct influence exists and can beco a decisive factor under specific conditions.

Although civilized society strives to manage and regulate interpersonal relationships with relatively mild chanisms such as law, morality, economy, and culture, beneath these appearances, violence as one of the most primitive human behaviors is the deep potential foundation of all social order. When all other forms of power and influence fail or face challenges, violence often becos the ultimate arbitrator.

From this perspective, the essence of power is not only the ability to set and enforce rules but also the capacity to compel others to obey, and violence is the most direct way to embody this essence.

And Chen Yun,

undoubtedly was the most direct practitioner of this essential philosophy.

No one could be more violent than him.

In a year, he might even be more violent than the armies of most countries.

By then, he would be the indisputable uncrowned king.

Any manipulation of power before him would be rely a clown’s performance.

Because with absolute power, he could flip the table at any ti.

At this thought, Chen Yunlai recalled a famous ani adapted from a light novel he had once seen—"God Slayer!"

In the "God Slayer!" series, the God Slayers are those who can kill gods and usurp their powers. They obtain divine-level strength by defeating disobedient gods, becoming beings transcending ordinary people.

Humans who beca God Slayers acquired Thousand Words, gained night vision, their bodies beca incredibly tough, their bones harder than any alloy in the world, their muscle fibers nearly indestructible, possessing a power stronger than adrenaline’s effects, bleeding would imdiately stop, and their sense of pain would beco dull. They contained hundreds of tis the magic power of a typical magician within them; as long as they could enhance the flow of the magic power in their bodies, they would be unaffected by external magic, automatically nullifying region-wide magic. They possessed a strong resistance to magic, all magic, whether benevolent or malevolent, would bounce off unless it was delivered mouth-to-mouth by directly injecting magic (or magic potions) into the body. When fighting at full strength, their bodies would naturally adjust to the optimal state.
