After discussing events on Earth with his family, Raven Walter asked, "I didn’t expect the starlight cannon to be so powerful. Why were we unaffected?"

"You old geezer, are you wishing we were affected?"

"I’m just asking," Raven Walter replied awkwardly.

Gael Evans asked, "Peter, what are your thoughts? Share with us."

"I have an idea. The development of the biochemical civilization is probably inevitable. After all, most people don’t possess spiritual roots, so they can’t cultivate."

Raven Walter said, "Exactly, not only can’t those without spiritual roots cultivate, but even those with spiritual roots - unless their roots are exceptionally good - do not stand a chance at achieving immortality. I personally have never thought about becoming immortal. Cultivation has just extended my lifespan. To be honest, Peter, as long as one is free from diseases, living a few hundred years more, would be pretty much enough."

Peter Brown looked at his father in surprise, not expecting him to have such a viewpoint.

Liza Smith chimed in at this point, "Peter, I know you hope that one day all of us can live forever. But even cultivators can hardly achieve that, right? Your Dad’s right. Even with our best efforts, the chances of us cultivating to the point of immortality are slim. I have a thought now, and you tell me if I’m right."

"Mom, go ahead."
