Dude, how many times did Eos wish for immortality for her boyfriends? I only know about the one where Tithonus would age forever without dying becoming a decrepit old man.

I mean, the whole Xianxia/cultivation stuff also goes into a lot of "and then things go horribly wrong in the pursuit of longevity", because the idea is only a very, very small few are actually capable of "earning" the reward. Everyone else goes crazy in the process. Much like only Jing Yuan is the only one able to handle the aging process out of the Luofu people due to his intelligence. (OK, it's not explicit, I'm going off of the last line in his personal story 而唯有真正的智者,才能在时光这位不败的对手前兀自傲立。 which seems to imply he'll be able to resist the curse for an indefinite amount of time. The fact that Jing Yuan is the only one who is still sane out of the Quintet I think supports my reading of this: he has reached 仙 level of cultivation.)
